Landmark Cases in the Law of Contract offers twelve original essays
by leading contract scholars. As with the essays in the companion
volume, Landmark Cases in the Law of Restitution (Hart, 2006) each
essay takes as its focus a particular leading case, and analyses
that case in its historical or theoretical context. The cases range
from the early eighteenth - to the late twentieth - centuries, and
deal with an array of contractual doctrines. Some of the essays
call for their case to be stripped of its landmark status, whilst
others argue that it has more to offer than we have previously
appreciated. The particular historical context of these landmark
cases, as revealed by the authors, often shows that our current
assumptions about the case and what it stands for are either
mistaken, or require radical modification. The book also explores
several common themes which are fundamental to the development of
the law of contract: for instance, the influence of commercial
expectations, appeals to 'reason' and the significance of
particular judicial ideologies and techniques.This book contains a
collection of new and original articles on the famous contract
cases. It includes contributions from well-established scholars
analysing both current and historical aspects of contract law. The
analysis of the cases will be of interest to barristers, academics
and judges.
