Legal thinkers typically justify contract law on the basis of economics or promissory morality. But Peter Benson takes another approach. He argues that contract is best explained as a transfer of rights governed by a conception of justice. The result is a comprehensive theory of contract law congruent with Rawlsian liberalism.

Excerpt from A Summary of the Law of Contracts As the Summary was written for the sake of the Cases, and the two were designed to be companions, the Cases constitute the chief authority cited in the Summary. When other authorities are cited, it is for some special purpose, it being no part of the writer's object to make a collection of authorities upon the subjects discussed. For the same reason, the cases are constantly cited and discussed without any statement of them, it being always assumed that the reader has them before him, and that, if he is he will make himself so. The present edition differs but little from the first edition, except in form. Even in the few instances in which the writer's views have undergone a change or modification since the first edition was printed, the text has generally been left as it was first written.

In recent years there has been a revival of interest in the philosophical study of contract law. In 1981 Charles Fried claimed that contract law is based on the philosophy of promise and this has generated what is today known as 'the contract and promise debate'. Cutting to the heart of contemporary discussions, this volume brings together leading philosophers, legal theorists, and contract lawyers to debate the philosophical foundations of this area of law. Divided into two parts, the first explores general themes in the contract theory literature, including the philosophy of promising, the nature of contractual obligation, economic accounts of contract law, and the relationship between contract law and moral values such as personal autonomy and distributive justice. The second part uses these philosophical ideas to make progress in doctrinal debates, relating for example to contract interpretation, unfair terms, good faith, vitiating factors, and remedies. Together, the essays provide a picture of the current state of research in this revitalized area of law, and pave the way for future study and debate.
