Private Law and Building Safety

Edited by Matthew Bell, Susan Bright, Ben McFarlane, and Andrew Robertson

 

In this book, leading international building and private law experts provide a timely and unique analysis of the real-world problem of building safety, approached through the lens of private law. It explores the extent to which private law can be part of the solution to - as well as being part of the cause of - the building safety crisis which afflicts people around the world.

 

The book offers policymakers, practitioners and scholars consideration of this vital yet under-considered aspect of the building safety crisis, along with new insights into the nature, limits and utility of private law.

Good Faith and Relational Contracts, Volume 2

Application to Specific Principles

Anthony Gray

 

This book explores the use of the doctrine of good faith in the common law when interpreting contracts and resolving disputes. It discusses the implications of relational contract theory and good faith for issues such as liquidated damages clauses, discretion to terminate a contract, contract forfeiture, employment contracts, and contractual remedies. The author discusses the potential for good faith to unite a number of currently disparate contract law and equitable principles into a coherent framework, providing an opportunity to question and jettison some archaic aspects of existing doctrine that are no longer defensible.

 

Anthony Gray is Professor of Law at Bond University, Australia.
