Abstract:

The thesis focuses on the main legacy of the relational contract theory in the context of contract interpretation and its influence on contemporary scholarship. First developed in the United States, the relational contract theory has had a significant resonance within common law countries, emphasizing the importance given to “contextualism” and the “implicit dimensions” of contract, and proving to be one of the most important alternative approaches to the classical law of contracts. Whilst no equivalent doctrinal elaboration can be said to exist within civilian countries, Italian law does reco

Abstract:

This paper addresses the meaning of the phrase 'good faith' where it appears in the express terms of a commercial contract. The purpose of this paper is to set out a methodology by which courts can consistently and predictably interpret the meaning of express obligations of good faith. It will be demonstrated that, by considering certain common contractual characteristics, a court can interpret such terms with greater fidelity to the parties' objectively ascertained intentions, in a way that is both reasoned and reasonable…

Abstract:

Contracts capture an agreement between two parties to exchange a resource in the future (ex-ante), however the future is not certain. Only after the event has happened, might the two parties compare the resources they have received to what they expected (ex-post). Entering into a contract with unknowns gives rise to incomplete contracts theory, the focus of which includes the study of human behavior. Relational contracting is currently being studied as a method of reducing the transaction costs and incompleteness of contracts. Using case studies, this research aimed to reach a conclusion rega

Abstract:

In recent years commentators have suggested that the law of contract is experiencing something of a legitimation crisis. Whilst the classical contract paradigm remains a compelling default model underpinning contract law it is seen as increasingly remote from commercial practice. Legal scholars have variously described contract theory and doctrine as incoherent, piecemeal or in a state of flux. In spite of these issues having been well aired by academics, and the judiciary, no compelling alternative model seems to have emerged. This thesis explores these issues through a unique in-depth examin

Abstract:

Service level agreements (SLAs) for complex IT-intensive business-to-business (CITI-B2B) services are high-level representations of services to be enacted, with predominantly quantifiable performance targets. Inevitably, there is a gap between this representation and the nuanced practices of enactment adapting to emergent conditions over time. Overarching terms in the master agreement anticipate this gap; however, the nature of the practices that manage that gap is not well understood. This study aims to develop a deeper understanding of these everyday practices to identify potential areas for

Malgré cette spécificité, le droit français appréhende encore le contrat de franchise en utilisant le modèle cognitif classique offert par la théorie générale du contrat.

Abstract:

As Australian workplace laws have evolved over the last century, the legal principles applying to the nature of relationships between Australian churches and their clergy have become subject to a degree of uncertainty. In the current political and legal environment it is desirable that this uncertainty be removed and that there be clarity as to the standing and accountability of clergy. This thesis identifies a theoretical framework from which some insight can be drawn that can help Churches adopt appropriate methods of appointing clergy that align with their theological beliefs while anticipa

The equilibrium level of the ﬁrst task is determined so as to guarantee the credibility of the relational contracts to provide incentives for the second task. It implies interesting economic results including non-monotonic relation between the discount factor and the total surplus, social desirability o

This article traces different forms of the same present throughout several eras in American political and social history. I focus on two texts, John Locke’s Second Treatise of Government, and Chief Justice Roger Brooke Taney’s majority opinion in Dred Scott v. Sandford, in order to examine slavery as a legal institution in the United States, and, in particular, the constitutionality of slavery. Rather than a massive contradiction, the Dred Scott decision is just another iteration of American political and racial philosophy as it was 100, even 200 years earlier.

This thesis is a case study about the choices and constraints faced by women clerical workers in a labour market where they have very little autonomy in negotiating their pay and conditions of employment.

On the other hand, it is an ideal occupation for women wanting to combine work and family across their life cycle. How these two phenomena impact upon women clerical workers ability to negotiate enterprise agreements is the subject of this thesis. From a theoretical

This dissertation consists of three essays. The first essay examines a general theory of information based on informal contracting. The measurement problem—the disparity of true and measured performances—is at the core of many failures in incentive systems. Informal contracting can be a potential solution since, unlike in formal contracting, it can utilize a lot of qualitative and informative signals. However, informal contracting must be self-enforced. Given this trade-off between informativeness and self-enforcement, I show that a new source of statistical information is economically valuabl
