Abstract
This chapter will first set out the academic and professional preoccupation within the European Union with a unified contract law and the reasons for it. It will then examine and compare CESL with CISG, and following on from this examination, will make some critical observations in regard to the regionalization of contract law. In the last part, this chapter will give an overview of the acceptance of the CISG in the TPP countries and will try to predict whether or not the TPP will go the way of the European Union.
