- Title
The Penalties Rule and the Promise Theory of Contract.
- Authors
Saprai, Prince
- Abstract
The article presents information on the challenges posed by the incompatibility of penalties rule with promise theory in context to contractual law criticism. It informs that promise theory can respond to criticism in several ways which include, by disputing the critic's view of promise, regarding contract doctrines as targets of criticism and by taking contractual doctrines to be explained by reasons different from that of legal enforcement.
