Abstract
Abstract The international economy was drastically changed by COVID-19. As the pandemic is causing similar problems in different jurisdictions, uniformized solutions are required to have more certainty in a global economy. This is an opportunity for the uniform regulation of international contracts such as the Unidroit Principles. The provisions of the Unidroit Principles, such as force majeure and hardship, may provide parties, adjudicators, and legislators with uniform solutions to common problems caused by the pandemic.
