The thesis will deal with the issue of contracting and
interpretation of international treaties from a
legal-linguistic perspective. The aim of the thesis will be the
analysis and evaluation of the whole contracting process from
the perspective of the contracting parties and its subsequent
translation into national law. It will also address the
pitfalls of multilingualism in the field of international
contracts. The first part of the thesis will present the basic
attributes for international contract law from a public
international law perspective. It will then deal with the
contracting process as such and its different phases.
Afterwards, attention will be paid in particular to the
interpretation of the texts of negotiated treaties from the
linguistic side of the matter and their real translation into
national law. Finally, an analysis of certain international
treaties will be made and their impact within the selected
legal orders will be compared.
