Das Buch ist die deutsche Ausgabe der „Fondamenti del diritto privato europeo". Es stellt in innovativer und umfassender Weise die derzeitige Stellung des Privatrechts in Europa vor, sowie die neuen Entwicklungen im Zuge der europäischen Vereinheitlichung und fortschreitenden Einigung. Geschrieben von zwei herausragenden europäischen Wissenschaftlern, Guido Alpa und Mads Andenas, die sich unermüdlich der Weiterentwicklung der länderübegreifenden Forschung und Lehre widmen, bietet es mehr als nur ein Handbuch zum europäischen Privatrecht. Es führt den Leser umfasssend in die geistes- und kulturhistorischen Hintergründe sowie in die Rechtstheorie der gegenwärtigen Privatrechtsvereinheitlichung und Modernisierung der rechtlichen Grundlagen des europäischen Wirtschaftsverkehrs ein.

This volume provides essays on fundamental rights, on European and Italian contract law, and on the lawyer’s role in contemporary society being the result of research carried out from a lawyer’s perspective in recent years. As fundamental rights are the same principles upon which rests the entire EU law, encoded in many written national constitutions or statute laws, they pervade all legal relations, including relations governed by private law. Furthermore, they invest the contract law as well, i.e. the ancient realm of freedom, particularly freedom of contract, involving jurists of every profession: the legislator, judges, lawyers and academic professors.
