Consumers shopping on the Internet want to ensure that their transactions are protected, secure and reliable. E-commerce has tremendous potential and, with the advent of the Internet, consumers can rapidly access a multitude of products, compare their prices as well as execute and conclude transactions without leaving the comfort of their living rooms. However, several payment and delivery problems are interfering with the commercial expansion of Cyber-commerce. Can current regulations contribute to the development of this new type of commerce and still protect consumers against technological abuses? To answer this question, the authors ponder the adequacy of the existing regulatory framework as it applies to methods of contract formation as well as execution on-line. Then, findings in hand, they turn their attention towards the necessity of restructuring Commercial Law in light of this new reality.

The three lectures which follow continue the exploration and evaluation of the complex relations between the descriptions of language and the mind given by Wittgenstein and those given by his Austro-German predecessors, the heirs of Bolzano and Brentano. The first lecture considers the relation between some distinctions and theses to be found in the Tractatus and similar distinctions and theses set out earlier by the realist phenomenologist Max Scheler. The second lecture is devoted to an examination of the descriptions of emotions, meaning something, willing, intending and remembering given by Wittgenstein and the first phenomenologists ; the descriptions discussed in this lecture build on ideas set out in the first lecture. The third and last lecture analyses the description of language and the philosophy of meaning (Bedeutung) in Austro-German philosophy.
