COMENTARIU – TEORETIC ȘI PRACTIC – CU PRIVIRE LA TEXTELE NOULUI COD CIVIL REFERITOARE LA FORMAREA CONTRACTULUI

This study proposes a thorough and precise examination of the provisions of the present Civil Code regarding the institution of the contract, especially, its drafting mechanism. The objective of our research concerns the reference made to the innovative items, but also a critical view regarding the possible discrepancies existing between the legal text and the judicial practice, respectively the concepts developed by the specialty literature under the pressure of the Civil Code of the year 1864. The approach is based upon a permanent tendency to refer to the comparative law, especially the European law and the great projects of unifying the regulation of the international commercial contracts, UNIDROIT Principles and the Principles of European Contract Law. We notice that one of the basic ideas taken into account by the editors of the Civil Code is that of „unifying” the civil law and the commercial law, by adopting the solutions proposed by other Codes, such as the Swiss or the Italian code. The assembly of the regulations applicable to the mechanism of the contract drafting has to be construed from this perspective. The usefulness is undisputable considering that the distinction cannot be justified at this level in a modern society. Likewise, it is required to specify that in the matter of drafting the contract, the good faith principle was raised to the rank of an „axiological summum”, being present both in the negotiations-related regulations and in the rigorous and detailed provisions of the offer and of its acceptance.
