Promises and Contract Law is the first modern work to explore the
significance of promise to contract law from a comparative legal
perspective. Part I explores the component elements of promise, its
role in Greek thought and Roman law, the importance of the moral
duty to keep promises and the development of promissory ideas in
medieval legal scholarship. Part II considers the modern contract
law of a number of legal systems from a promissory perspective. The
focus is on the law of England, Germany and three mixed legal
systems (Scotland, South Africa and Louisiana), though other legal
systems are also mentioned. Major topics subjected to a promissory
analysis include formation of contract, third party rights,
contractual remedies and the renunciation of contractual rights.
Part III analyses the future role which promise might play in
contract law, especially within a harmonised European contract law.
