Gerhard Wagner explores the law of contracts in its application to procedural questions. “Litigation contracts” such as forum selection, mediation and arbitration clauses are widely popular, as they allow the parties to customize the ordinary process of dispute resolution. Procedural contracts enhance the efficiency of the legal process without sacrificing the public interest in a well-functioning judicial system. The book breaks down widely held prejudices against private autonomy in civil procedure and dispenses with doctrinal complexities that hold little normative water.


Gerhard Wagner verfolgt das Ziel, Privatautonomie als Gestaltungsprinzip des Zivilprozessrechts zu etablieren. Prozessbezogene Vereinbarungen sind dazu geeignet, Interessen der Parteien zu fordern und das Verfahren konstruktiver zu machen. Zudem schlagen Prozessvertrage die Lucke zur privaten Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit und starken die Wettbewerbsfahigkeit der staatlichen Gerichte.
