THE SALE OF ALTERNATIVE GOODS AND THE SALES CONTRACT WITHVOLUNTARY OBLIGATIONS
THE SALE OF ALTERNATIVE GOODS AND THE SALES CONTRACT WITHVOLUNTARY OBLIGATIONS

Summary/Abstract: The present study contains the presentation of the most relevant aspects of the variety of sale which covers the alternative goods and the one characterized by the existence of a voluntary obligation. The paper addresses these sale varieties both in terms of the regulations contained in the previous Civil Code (in 1864) and of those related to the current Code. We review the legal and doctrinal definitions of the types of sales examined, the moments in which the ownership and risk right is transferred according to the opinions expressed in research literature as well as the rights arising in favour of the contracting parties.The author analyzes the different hypothesis when the principal benefit becomes unenforceable. The study addresses both theoreticians and practitioners in civil law, opening the possibility of completing the author's opinion and of expressing other points of view.
