A közös európai adásvételi jog megalkotásának kudarca (2011–2015)
The Failure of the Common European Sales Law (2011-2015)

Summary/Abstract: The European Commission has set great goals in October 2011, initiating the legislative procedure for the Common European Sales Law (CESL). In February 2014 the European Parliament adopted the draft regulation on CESL (with 416 yes, 159 no votes and 65 abstentions), which in principle indicates great consensus. The reality, however, was different: the text adopted by the Parliament and the version initiated by the Commission were two radically different norms, due to the significant changes made by the Parliament. This adoption should have been followed in the legislative procedure by the approval in the Council. The European Commission presented its working plan for 2015 in December 2014. Here, the CESL was on the list of withdrawal proposals, marking the end of the CESL. This article deals with the complex – legal, cultural and political – reasons of this failure.
