大陸法系(civil law)與英美法系(common law)並列為世界兩大法系，對於屬於大陸法系的我國，法學院學生對於英美法系的各項法律概念尤感陌生。但隨著全球化的發展，大陸法系與英美法系有融合之勢，且對於以外貿為主的台灣而言，商業活動中各項契約常見以英美法系中的美國法、英國法為準據法(governing law)，因此，實有瞭解英美契約法並與我國契約法進行比較研究之必要。本課程籍由介紹英美契約法之各項原則，並與我國法作比較法研究，尤其著重於剖析各項英文合約，使同學瞭解英美契約法之各項概念如何於實務中應用。The civil law and common law are listed as the two major legal systems in the world. For my country, which belongs to the mainland, students in the law school are particularly unfamiliar with the various legal concepts of the Anglo-American legal system. However, with the development of globalization, the mainland legal system is integrated with the Anglo-American legal system, and for Taiwan, which mainly trades abroad, it is common for various contracts in business activities to take American and British law and British law in the Anglo-American legal system as the governing law. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the Anglo-American contract law and conduct comparative research with our contract law. This course introduces the principles of the Anglo-American Contract Law and conducts a comparative study with our laws, focusing especially on analyzing various English contracts, so that students can understand how the various concepts of the Anglo-American Contract Law can be applied in practice.
