Lawyers everywhere, but especially those within the European
Community, are becoming increasingly aware of the need for an
understanding of each other's legal systems. This is particularly
true of commercial law, of which the law of contract is the
foundation. Written primarily for lawyers and law students in the
Common law world, this book explains the principles of the French
law of contract and compares them with those of other European
legal systems. This second edition, which assumes no prior
knowledge of French law, is written from the standpoint of a common
lawyer familiar with the problems which the law of contract deals
with in a modern Western society. Commencing with an introductory
account of the characteristics of French law - the most influencial
of the Civil law systems - and the French legal system, it explains
the principles of the French law of contract and shows how they
differ from those of English law. Consideration is given to recent
developments in the obligation to disclose information, third party
rights in "groups of contract", unfair contract terms, and the
seller's liability for latent defects.
Jolowicz's classic work traces the development of Roman Law
historically from the earliest times until the age of Justinian.
Private Law is treated at some length for the republican period,
but for imperial times the emphasis is on constitutional law and
the sources of law, together with the procedure and structure of
the judicial system. There are also chapters on social conditions
and on the general characteristics of classical and post-classical
law.
This book sketches the history of Roman Private Law from the Twelve Tables to modern times, and sets out the elements of the system. It does not attempt to summarize the whole law, but explains and evaluates its most characteristic and influential features.
