The Cape Town Convention
Hart Publishing (Verlag)
978-1-5099-3977-0 (ISBN)
The book is an invaluable addition to the existing literature on the Cape Town Convention. It also informs the debate about harmonisation of secured transactions regimes generally, and as such will be of interest to academics, legal practitioners and the judiciary involved in secured transactions law around the world. Practising lawyers will better understand the rationale behind the key provisions of the Cape Town Convention, while the treaty-making lessons will assist governmental officials, representatives of international organisations and legal advisors engaged in harmonisation of commercial law.
The text covers all four protocols to the Cape Town Convention, including the MAC Protocol adopted on 22 November 2019 in Pretoria.
Anton Didenko is Research Fellow in the Centre for Law, Markets and Regulation at the Faculty of Law, University of New South Wales.
