L’applicabilità della Convenzione di Vienna sulla vendita internazionale di beni alle transazioni aventi ad oggetto software: vendita o licenza?
abstract
The growth and the continuous development of the information technology have changed the panorama of the international trade. New types of goods became object of the commercial transactions, such as software. The virtual intangible nature and the presence of intellectual property rights, made the regulation of the software transaction particularly difficult and unclear: should the transactions containing this good be treated as license agreement or sales contract? The United Nations Convention on international sale of goods offers one possible solution.
