doctrinal issues in contracts
Definition
- Within Western legal traditions, jurists consider contract law a part of “private law” in the sense that, like property law and tort (or “delict”), contract law is thought to deal with fundamentally private transactions. It is, of course, acknowledged that the state may enter into legally binding contracts. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Contracts, Doctrinal Issues In]
