CBS LAW Seminar: A behavioral theory of contracts
The talk will present a behavioral theory of contracts, which emphasizes the role of factors such as promise keeping and trust, and examines how these factors are affected by the mode of contracting - individually negotiated versus standard-form contracts. Further, the talk will explore concrete areas of contract law through a behavioral prism, including pre-contractual negotiations, with special emphasis on the role of default rules and other reference points; contract information; and remedies for breach of contract, including agreed-upon remedies. Finally, the talk will review the growing impact of behavioral findings on the regulation of consumer contracts.
The seminar will take place 25 January 2019: 10.00-11.30 at CBS, more exactly: CBS, Augustinus Fonden: Senate meeting room SP D4, Solbjerg Plads 3, 2000 Frederiksberg, Denmark.
