Ius quaesitum tertio

Edited by Eltjo J. H. Schrage. 14 contributions. The authors of this volume focus on contracts in favour of third parties. They examine two distinct, but closely related topics: The unfolding and gradual withering away of the Roman law maxim 'Alteri stipulari non potest' and (more general) the creation of contractual rights in favour of third parties.
