    “Equitable estoppel and CISG”
    (Hacettepe Üniversitesi, 2013) Uçaryılmaz, Talya
    Equitable estoppel is one of the most important doctrines in the Common Law Jurisdictions. The concept of estoppel which can be seen as one of the crucial principles of the public international law and the international commercial law, is aimed to protect one party from being harmed as a result of the other party’s contradictory deeds, statements or promises. Although the Civil Law does not contain an estoppel doctrine, it contains several basic principles that serve to the same goal which can be summarized as to achieve justice through equity. This study examines whether the doctrine of equitable estoppel can be found compatible with the CISG (The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods) which targets to facilitate international trade and to create uniformity in its application.
