Event Details
UCL Faculty of Laws Bentham House Annual Conference 2013:
organised by
Professor Gregory Klass (Georgetown), Dr George Letsas (UCL) and Dr Prince Saprai (UCL)
The Philosophical Foundations
of Contract Law
Friday 10th & Saturday 11th May 2013
at the UCL Faculty of Laws
About the conference:
In the last ten years, there has been a revival of interest in the philosophical study of contract law. Much of the discussion related back to Charles Fried’s 1981 claim that contract law is based on the philosophy of promise, generating what is today known as ‘the contract and promise debate’. The aim of this conference is to tap into this renewal of interest and bring together leading philosophers, legal theorists and contract lawyers to debate the philosophical foundations of this area of law. Papers will focus on general themes in the contract theory literature, including for example the nature of promising and more generally voluntary obligations, economic, instrumental and pluralistic conceptions of contract, the relationship between contract and other moral concerns such as fault, and the application of these more abstract philosophical ideas to specific doctrinal issues, such as contract formation, contract interpretation, unfair terms, defences and remedies.
This conference is accredited with 12 CPD hours by the Solicitors Regulation Authority and the Bar Standards Board (pending). Our course provider reference for the SRA is IU/UCL.

A paper bank of the conference papers will also be available from the conference website.
