Summary

TLDRIn this lesson on contract theory, the instructor delves into the classification of contracts based on the rights and duties of the parties involved. Starting with unilateral contracts, where only one party holds obligations, such as in a pure donation, the lecture contrasts this with bilateral contracts, where both parties have mutual rights and duties, as seen in examples like sales contracts. Further, the instructor introduces plurilateral contracts, which involve multiple parties with proportional rights and duties, like in consortia or group life insurance. The session lays a foundational understanding for students on the types of contractual relationships.

Takeaways

  • 😀 Contracts are categorized using criteria, with the first being the rights and duties of the parties involved.
  • 😀 A contract is always a bilateral legal transaction, meaning it involves at least two parties.
  • 😀 A unilateral contract is where only one party assumes duties toward the other, with no counter-performance required from the other party.
  • 😀 An example of a unilateral contract is a donation, where the donor gives something without expecting anything in return.
  • 😀 A bilateral contract involves both parties being both creditors and debtors of each other, with rights and duties in equal proportion.
  • 😀 Bilateral contracts are also called 'sinalagmáticos' (synallagmatic), meaning they are balanced in terms of rights and duties.
  • 😀 A clear example of a bilateral contract is a sale, where one party provides the product and the other party provides payment.
  • 😀 In a bilateral contract, both parties have reciprocal duties—one delivers the goods, and the other pays for them.
  • 😀 A plurilateral contract involves more than two parties, with each having rights and duties in equal proportion to one another.
  • 😀 Examples of plurilateral contracts include consortium agreements and group life insurance, where multiple parties are involved in a mutual obligation.
