This book advances a theoretical account of contract law, grounded in value pluralism. Arguing against attempts to delineate branches of legal doctrine by reference to single unifying values, the book suggests that a field such as contract law can only be explained and justified by the interaction of a multiplicity of moral values. In recent times, the philosophy of contract law has been dominated by the 'promise theory', according to which the morality of promise provides a 'blueprint' for the structure, shape, and content that contract law rules and doctrines should take. The promise theory is an example of what this book calls a 'foundationalist' theory, whereby areas of law reflect or are underlain by particular moral principles or sets of such principles. By considering contract law from the point of view of its theory, rules and doctrines, and broader political context, the book argues that the promise theory can only ever offer part of the picture. The book claims that 'top-down' theories of contract law such as the promise theory and its bitter rival the economic analysis of law seriously mishandle legal doctrine by ignoring or underplaying the irreducible plurality of values that shape contract law. The book defends the role of this multiplicity of values in forging contract doctrine by developing from the 'ground-up' a radical and distinctly republican reinterpretation of the field. The book encourages readers to move away from a 'top-down' theory of contract law such as the promise theory and instead embrace a distinctly republican approach to contract law that would justify the legal rules and doctrines we find in particular jurisdictions at particular times.

If, as John Rawls famously suggests, justice is the first virtue of social institutions, how are we to understand the institution of contract law? This book proposes a Rawlsian theory of contract law. It argues that justice requires that we understand contract rules in terms of the idea of reasonable, terms of interaction – that is, terms that would be accepted by reasonable persons moved by a desire for a social world in which they, as free and equal, can cooperate with others on terms they accept. On that basis, the book explains the main doctrines of contract law, including those governing third parties, in both the Common Law and the Civil Law.

Private international law has long been understood as a doctrinal and technical body of law, without interesting theoretical foundations or implications. By systematically exploring the rich array of philosophical topics that are part of the fabric of private international law, Philosophical Foundations of Private International Law fills a significant and long-standing void in the legal and philosophical literature. The contributions to this volume are testimony to the significant potential for interaction between philosophy and private international law. Some aim to expand and rethink classical jurisprudential theories by focusing on law beyond the state and on the recognition of foreign law and judgments in domestic courts. Others bring legal and moral theories to bear on traditional debates in private international law, such as legal pluralism, transnational justice, the interpretation of foreign legal policies, and the boundaries of the legal system. Several engage with the history of both private international law and legal and political philosophy. They point to missed opportunities when philosophers ignored law's transnational dimensions, or when private international law scholars failed to position their theories within broader philosophical schools of thought. Some seek to complete past attempts to articulate the philosophical dimensions of private international law that were never carried through. Thought-provoking and topical, this volume displays the varied themes cutting through the disciplines of private international law and philosophy.

This new volume analyses the central doctrines and concepts of Indian contract law and provides guidance on the interpretation of the Indian Contract Act 1872 by examining its historical, philosophical, and comparative foundations. Featuring contributions from practitioners and academics from around the world, the book follows a methodology carefully calibrated to address the shortcomings in traditional Indian contract law scholarship. The primary presuppositions of this methodology are that: (a) the answers to many difficult questions of Indian contract law can be found in the history of the Contract Act; and (b) while it is difficult to understand the Contract Act other than against the backdrop of the common law, one should not assume that Indian contract law mirrors the common law on all difficult points. Each chapter therefore pays close attention to the legislative history of the relevant provision(s) of the Contract Act. Based on a holistic analysis of the Contract Act's drafting history and its current interpretation, Foundations of Indian Contract Law is a carefully crafted volume providing the input needed to influence the Indian courts' approach to contract law, inform meaningful legislative reform, and, more broadly, catalyse a culture of critical scholarship on Indian private law. Formed of 24 chapters and a conclusion by Professor Hugh Beale (former Commercial Law and Common Law Commissioner at the Law Commission of England and Wales), the volume presents an authoritative exposition of a branch of the law that is of considerable interest and great practical importance for practitioners, scholars, and students interested in Indian contract law.
