| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study reveals the results of a questionnaire survey regarding discrepancies between theory and practice in international trade. The results identified the following four points. First, we demonstrated that the potential use ratio of the container terms is high at present, but the expansion of the use ratio of these terms will stagnate as long as appropriate measures are not considered in the future. Second, we demonstrated a discrepancy between theory and practice in that trading companies often do not reach an agreement on governing rules for the conduct of operations when they are employing trade terms. Third, we demonstrated that one reason that trading companies do not agree on governing rules is that trade disputes rarely arise even though the companies have not set an interpretive framework for long-term trade terms. Fourth, we demonstrated a further gap between theory and practice in that many trading companies operate without setting methods for resolving disputes.
