Abstract

The liberal foundations of Private Law are not suitable to answer the questions resulting from the massive increase of contractual relations. Contracts start to be directly influenced by constitutional texts and there is the recognition of the necessity to protect the consumer, the vulnerable part in contractual relations. One does not speak about contracts in terms of the supremacy of the parts’ will anymore, but in terms of the supremacy of social interests, good-faith and trust.
