Considerații critice în legătură cu fundamentul contractului, în lumina Codului civil actual și a doctrinei europene moderne
Critical remarks on the foundation of the contract, in the light of the current Civil Code and of the modern European doctrine

Summary/Abstract: By critically analyzing the foundation of the civil contract, in light of the provisions of the current Romanian Civil Code, in relation to the modern Western European legal doctrine, and by insisting on some obsolete and/or contradictory legal regulations of the new Romanian Civil Code, the author of this study, on the one hand, considers that the principle pacta sunt servanda has presently become a myth, that we are witnessing the constant decline of the autonomy of will in matters of civil contracts and, at the same time, a series of new developments as regards the limits of the contractual freedom, the legal regulation of unpredictability in the new Romanian Civil Code (Article 1271) being relevant in this respect. Finally, the author believes that the current Romanian Civil Code (of 2009) contains a number of inconsistencies and contradictory regulations under the mentioned aspects, for which reason he proposes, in conclusion, the recast of the Code as soon as possible, taking into account the numerous failures thereof.
