    Consent is supposed to distinguish contracts from other private or public obligations by requiring that each contracting party intend to be bound to the contract and its terms.  This program will explore whether intent remains an integral part of contemporary contract law and practice, with particular attention to each party’s intent (1) to be bound, (2) to be bound to specific terms, (3) regarding the meaning of the agreed terms, and (4) regarding the circumstances under which a party may avoid or delay performing their duties.
