Description

LAWS1071 Contracts 1 is the first of two compulsory components of the undergraduate curriculum which together examine the law governing the formation and performance of contracts. This course initially examines the distinctive nature of contractual obligations and some contemporary social and economic influences upon it. The course then examines systematically the legal principles governing the formation of contracts. Finally, it gives special attention to the possibility of enforcement by third parties, and the manner in which the law of estoppel can result in enforcement of non-contractual promises
