Armonizzazione del diritto dei contratti: percorsi teorici e stato dell'arte

This writing analyzes the evolution of European contract law, focusing on legal models and harmonization tools and considering the relationships between market and agents, including those between private and supra-individual interests. In this frame, this paper focuses on the developments of European contract law, which underline the birth of a new paradigm, that gives relevance to the inequality of bargaining power between the parties and is aimed to promote a public order goal: i.e. the protection of fundamental rights within the smooth functioning of internal market.
