Philosophical Foundations of the Law of Unjust Enrichment Summary

Philosophical Foundations of the Law of Unjust Enrichment by Robert Chambers (Professor of Property Law at University College London.)

This volume takes stock of the rapid changes to the law of unjust enrichment over the last decade. It offers a set of original contributions from leading private law theorists examining the philosophical foundations of the law. The essays consider the central questions raised by demarcating unjust enrichment as a separate area of private law - including how its normative foundations relate to those of other areas of private law, how the concept of enrichment relates to property theory, how the remedy of restitution relates to principles of corrective justice and what role mental elements should play in shaping the law.

Philosophical Foundations of the Law of Unjust Enrichment Reviews

...the real strength of this book lies in the diversity of the analyses contained within, which will be of use to practitioners and academics alike as they attempt to chart the course of restitution and unjust enrichment in the years to come. Many of the papers have a comparative flavour, giving them an international relevance * Benedict Semple Wray, King's College London, Trust Law International 23.3 *
The essays in this collection greatly advance our understanding of what lies begind unjust enrichment, its elements and its structure * AP Simester, Univeristy of Cambridge and National University of Singapore, Oxford Journal of Legal Studies *
