English contract law is the body of law that regulates legally binding agreements in England and Wales. With its roots in the lex mercatoria and the activism of the judiciary during the industrial revolution, it shares a heritage with countries across the Commonwealth (such as Australia, Canada, India), from membership in the European Union, continuing membership in Unidroit, and to a lesser extent the United States. Any agreement that is enforceable in court is a contract. A contract is a voluntary obligation, contrasting to the duty to not violate others rights in tort or unjust enrichment. English law places a high value on ensuring people have truly consented to the deals that bind them in court, so long as they comply with statutory and human rights.

  • Das Contract Law Englands und Wales' ist der Teil der Rechtsordnung Englands und Wales', der sich mit den Voraussetzungen und Wirkungen von Verträgen beschäftigt. Er beinhaltet somit größtenteils Rechtsgebiete, die ihre funktionalen Äquivalente in der und im allgemeinen Schuldrecht der Rechtsordnungen des deutschen Rechtskreises finden. Eine Besonderheit des common law ist die Forderung von Consideration (etwa ‚Gegenleistung‘) für die Wirksamkeit eines Vertrages. (de)
  • En droit anglais, le contrat est une promesse ou un accord réalisé sur un ensemble de promesses. La rupture d'un contrat est reconnue par le droit, et des remèdes juridiques peuvent y être apportés. Le contrat consensuel (simple contract) est dominé par le principe de la consideration qui n'admet pas de contrat à titre gratuit. L'onérosité est ainsi un élément essentiel à la formation du contrat, pour laquelle il faut une contrepartie à une promesse, qu'il s'agisse d'un paiement ou d'une prestation réciproque. Par contre, le contrat solennel échappe à la consideration. (fr)

  • 英国合同法(英語:English contract law)是英国规定合同的法律。它继承自,受过司法能动主义的影响,因此与、和等 以及美国的合同法有共同之处。由于英国是欧盟成员和国际统一私法协会成员,此法律目前正在逐渐调整。 可以由法庭强制执行的协议就是合同。因为合同是之债,不同于侵權行為與不當得利,所以英国法律尤其重视验定人们确实允诺过法庭上涉及的约定。通常来讲,一方作出要约,另一方接受该要约(表示同意,或履行要约条款)之后,就形成合同。如果合同条款是确定的,并且当事人的行为表明他们答应这些条款,通常情况下此协议就可强制执行。某些合同还要求要正式的签名手续和见证人——比如像土地买卖这种大笔交易。对于这类合同,英国法比其他欧洲法要求更严,它要求所有当事方为该议定交易都要提供有价值的事物(称为),这是强制执行的前提。 (zh)
