This collection of original essays from leading scholars explores contemporary issues in private law.
This collection of essays by leading private law scholars makes an important contribution to the literature on: contract; tort; unjust enrichment; equity and trusts; property/land law; and judicial method. It will appeal to academics, judges, practitioners and students with an interest in private law doctrines, remedies and methods.Inspired by recent debate, the purpose of this collection of essays on private law doctrines, remedies and methods is to celebrate and illustrate the contribution that both 'top-down' and 'bottom-up' methods of reasoning make to the development of private law. The contributors explore a variety of topical subjects, including judicial approaches to 'top-down' and 'bottom-up' methods; teaching trusts law; the protection of privacy in private law; the development of the law of unjust enrichment; the private law consequences of theft; equity's jurisdiction to relieve against forfeiture; the nature of fiduciary relationships and obligations; the duties of trustees; compensation and disgorgement remedies; partial rescission; the role of unconscionability in proprietary estoppel; and the nature of registered title to land.
