. Foundations of Indian Contract Law. , , 2024.

The book features contributions from 32 academics and practitioners from around the world. The authors adhere to a methodology that is carefully calibrated to address the shortcomings in traditional Indian contract law scholarship. The primary presuppositions of this methodology are that: (a) the answers to many difficult questions of Indian contract law are to be found in the history of the Contract Act; and (b) while it is difficult to understand the Contract Act other than against the backdrop of the common law, one should not assume that on all difficult points Indian contract law mirrors the common law.
