Commercial Expectations and Cooperation in Symbiotic Contracts: A Legal and Empirical Analysis
Autor Charles Haward Soperen Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 ian 2020
The possibility of aligning these expectations with the law is considered from the perspective that there is a general duty for parties to cooperate and ensure constructive engagement. The book examines how this might translate into constructive communication, professional governance, genuine attempts to settle issues, a right to fix defects and a duty to take decisions in a fair and rational manner. It argues that statutory adjudication should be extended to all commercial contracts and more ambitious use of available remedies, including those for prevention and cost penalties, would help provide incentives for parties to cooperate more fully.
The book will be of interest to academics in the fields of contract law and of contract management, as well as legal and commercial practitioners.
