Zuzanna Daszkiewicz Logo ORCID

Abstract

The process of legal unification is one of the major challenges of private international law. It has a long history, however it did not result in definite conclusions on effective mechanisms of conducting the unification process. The publication of the Incoterms 2020 provided an inceptive to the consideration of the reasons for the success of some initiatives for the unification of private international law and the failure of others. There are a number of legal instruments for legal unification. The focus of the paper is primarily on Incoterms-like acts that do not originate from the legislative authority. Among these, standard contractual clauses and sets of rules can be mentioned, as well as conventions.The article discusses diverse projects and attempts to answer the question of what characteristics such an instrument should have in order to become widespread. The analysis is carried out taking into account norms of competence and substantive law and its relations to Incoterms 2020. Finally, the paper also touches upon case-law practice related to Incoterms and their relevance to international civil proceedings or tax law.
