Originally published in 1988 and now available in a revised paperback edition, this collection of essays by one of the leading contract theorists of the common law world concerns the theory and foundations of contractual liability. This paperback edition includes a new essay, "Freedom of Contract and the New Right," which charts the latest shift in the development of contract law back in the direction of Freedom of Contract. This collection will especially appeal to students and scholars of contract law and theory and the law of obligation.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This is a revised edition of the paperback, Essays on Contract which was published by OUP in 1988. With the addition of a further previously unpublished essay, this book can be seen as the most up-to-date and comprehensive account of Professor Atiyah's views on the law and theory of contract. The new essay `Freedom of Contract and the New Right' charts the latest shift in the development of contract law, this time back in the direction of Freedom of Contract. This shift, Professor Atiyah argues, can be traced directly to the growing strength of the `New Right' and its advocacy of political and economic freedom.

Revue de presse

`these essays are of the highest quality and will be compulsory reading for any serious student of the law of obligations.' The Irish Jurist
