Making law through practice: examples from commercial law

Thursday 7 April 2022 5.15pm (AEST)

Sir Ross Cranston QC will draw on themes in his recent book, Making commercial law through practice 1830–1970 (Cambridge UP, 2021), emphasising the Australian dimension. He will examine three areas: markets, agency and sales, to show that although the common law provided the backdrop to commercial activity, it was in practice a flexible tool to achieve what the parties wanted.
