In 1995, the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law commissioned Professor John O. Honnold (working in conjunction with Professor Michael Joachim Bonell and Ambassador Mahmoud Soliman) to devise a classification of each of the provisions of the CISG.
This classification or outline of the CISG (referred to by UNCITRAL as a thesaurus) is presented in this database with the permission of the United Nations.
This outline was designed for recording, classifying, and retrieving decisions under the CISG. As a detailed breakdown of the subjects addressed in each provision of the CISG, it has broader utility: to professors and students as a learning aid, and to practitioners and jurists as a guide to the contents of each article of the CISG.
