ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES IN INTERNATIONAL CONTRACT...

Electronic signature legislation seeks to facilitate e-commerce by providing an electronic
equivalent to handwritten signatures in paper-based contracts. However  electronic signature
legislation enacted in the past years in different jurisdictions has followed a dissimilar
approach. In light thereof  this book analyzes the legal validity of electronic signatures in
international contracts potentially subject to divergent electronic signature regulation. To
this end  four major issues are addressed: the technological and legal concept of electronic
signatures  the legal regulation of electronic signatures  the determination of the electronic
signature legislation that will be applicable to an international contract  and  finally  the
implications of applying one electronic signature law or another. The research covers the laws
of Argentina  Germany and the United States of America as well as international conventions.
