Abstract:

This thesis deals with law concerned with the role of banks as their customers' financial advisers in England and Germany. At present, the law related to financial advice in England and Germany appears to be a motley conglomerate of isolated concepts and lines of authority which fail to form a homogenous body of rules capable of guiding those who are involved in the banking business. Recent developments such as the 'misselling' of pension funds and other investment products have undermined consumer confidence in the financial services industry and have raised the question whether the present l

Abstract:

This thesis explores the question how unilateral conduct can create, vary or discharge obligations in English private law and how unilateral conduct is regulated. First, it is explained that the reason for asking this question follows from the candidate’s background in a civil law jurisdiction, in which unilateral juridical acts are regarded a category of legally relevant behaviour. After observing the obstacles in English law to the recognition of the civil law concept of unilateral juridical acts, a number of examples of unilateral conduct are identified that create legal effect.

Abstract:

The concept of good faith has an important role to play in English contract law, where the elements necessary for its recognition already exist. Nevertheless, the issue has divided the contract community. Although there is strong support for the recognition of such a concept, it is more often rejected on the basis that it would be, at best, unnecessary and, at worst, a serious disruption of contract law. These arguments are correct to the extent that it would indeed be difficult, if not impossible, to transplant an existing continental version of good faith into English law. They fail, however

The purpose of this thesis is to determine the scope and consequences of the separability doctrine in English law. It reveals a tension which hitherto has not been explored or understood between the desire to widen the separability doctrine so as to promote commercial arbitration and the need for that doctrine to rest on sound principle and policy. The thesis seeks to convince the reader that: (i) English arbitration law is, and should continue to be, based on a contractual theory of arbitration; (ii) the separability doctrine, as applied in England, is consistent with a contractual theory of

Abstract:

Culpable homicide is the unlawful negligent killing of a fellow human being. As such it is in many respects a 'residual' crime being the verdict prosecutors may expect when they are unable to prove the intention to kill when prosecuting for murder. A feature of this was that in the past when defences such as, for instance, intoxication or provocation were raised at murder trials, convictions of culpable homicide were almost automatic. In recent years, under the influence of the 'purist' current in our Criminal law, intoxication has become a defence to culpable homicide and provocation resultin

Abstract:

The definitions of discrimination provided by equality legislation are a measure of how far a society is willing to challenge deep-seated assumptions, attitudes, and patterns of inequality. The judiciary has a major role in shaping these definitions. This is evident from the antecedent American cases and those of the Court of Justice of the European Union, which worked with more aspirational than detailed legislative provisions. One might conclude that the legislation coming before the English courts was thus ‘ready-made’, presenting the judiciary with few interpretive difficulties. But on man

This thesis discusses the penalty rule in English law. Pre-arranged provisions concerning the estimation of due damages in event of the promisor' breach are of considerable practical importance. When such provisions are enforceable they are called liquidated damages clauses. However, English law courts will not enforce these provisions where they are categorised as penalty clauses. A penalty clause is a contractual provision which provides that in the event of a breach of contract the de,faulting party shall pay to his contractual partner a sum which is unconscionable and extravagant in relati

Conversely, dissolution of companies and partnerships is a negative indicator because countries and societies lose all these advantages thereby.

While it is generally accepted that this common law principle needs reforming, successive governments have declined to take on the task.
