Samenvatting

This fifth volume in the acclaimed Studies in the Contract Laws of Asia series offers a comprehensive comparative analysis of contract termination and change of circumstances across thirteen key Asian jurisdictions: China, India, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Thailand, the Philippines, and Indonesia.

Drawing on four major legal traditions-Napoleonic, German, common law, and the Indian Contracts Act-the volume explores how these Asian systems handle core issues such as withholding performance, termination for breach, impossibility, and adaptation of contracts under unforeseen hardship. While many jurisdictions converge on basic principles, striking differences emerge in how they allocate risk and define fairness, particularly in response to changing circumstances.

From Indonesia's requirement of judicial termination to China's unique approach to court-led contract adaptation, this volume reveals the deep influence of historical legal traditions and modern innovations on current commercial practice. It highlights both the complexity and richness of Asian contract laws, offering valuable insights for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers seeking to understand or harmonize legal approaches in a rapidly evolving economic region.
