An agreement is legally enforceable only if it is supported by valuable consideration and there is an intention to contract.

Abstract:

This chapter focuses on the doctrine of consideration, the most unique aspect of the common law of contract, not replicated in any other system. It first considers the history and then says something about the function and definition of the doctrine before going on to discuss the rules in detail. These include the adequacy of consideration; nominal consideration; situations where it has been held that a promise or act is not acceptable as consideration; consideration must be referrable to the promise; consideration must move from the promisee (but not necessarily to the promisor); past conside

Abstract:

This book provides a comprehensive study of two parallel notions of civil and common law: cause and consideration. It does this in three ways; with historical, comparative, and functional perspectives. Aspects of cause and consideration are hotly contested by contract lawyers and this book will bring clarity by looking at the English and Continental positions. Key areas of focus include: enforceability, questions of legality and morality, contractual justice, and the correction of unjustified property displacements. Bringing together a team of experts, the book discusses (in some cases for the

Should market transactions be held legally void when they are immoral? Which rules of contract law should the parties be free to opt out of? Adopting a critical lens, the book inter

Abstract:

This chapter provides insights into the law on contract formation in Japan. The Japanese approach is traditional, requiring an agreement which, in turn, normally requires an offer and matching acceptance, according to the mirror image rule. Once offers become effective, the 1898 Japanese Civil Code severely restricts their revocability. This is in tune with the mostly German origins of Japanese contract law. However, the drafters of the Code deliberately followed the common law in one respect: the offeree’s acceptance becomes effective as soon as it is dispatched. This is highly controversial

Abstract This book examines the law of privity of contract, that is the rule that only the parties to a contract can sue on a contract and that the parties to a contract cannot impose burdens on third parties. It discusses the historical rise of the concept of privity, its relationship to other rules of contract law, particularly the requirement of consideration, and its acceptance into English law and common law systems. In addition to analysing the concept of privity it discusses the various common law and legislative exceptions to the privity rule. It takes a comparative law approach, discu
