Abstract

The doctrine of frustration operates to discharge a contract where, after the formation of the contract, something occurs which renders performance of the contract impossible, illegal, or something radically different from that which was in the contemplation of the parties at the time of entry into the contract. This chapter examines the scope of the doctrine of frustration and the relationship between the doctrine of frustration and any force majeure or hardship clause that is found in the contract. Consideration is given to the basis of the doctrine of frustration and the remedial consequences of the conclusion that a contract has been frustrated. It also explores the reasons for the narrow scope of the doctrine of frustration and contrasts it with the more liberal regimes to be found in, for example, the Principles of European Contract Law.
21. 挫折及不可抗力
挫折原则的作用是解除合同,在合同成立后,发生了一些事情,使合同的履行变得不可能,不合法,或者与签订合同时双方所考虑的完全不同。本章探讨挫折原则的范围,以及挫折原则与合同中任何不可抗力或困难条款之间的关系。考虑到挫折原则的基础和合同已被挫折的结论的补救后果。它还探讨了挫折原则范围狭窄的原因,并将其与更自由的制度进行了对比,例如,欧洲合同法原则。
