Contractual Liability for Foreseeable Risks, between the Autonomy of Private Will and Thoroughness of the Public Procurement Rules La responsabilidad contractual por los riesgos previsibles, entre la autonomía de la voluntad privada y la rigurosidad de las normas de contratación pública

Abstract

The expected contractual risks no specific rules in the regime of “common law”. However, the autonomy of private will usually solve this gap through ancillary contractual provisions. However, the rules of government procurement, the rigidity of contractual design process imposes duties on typing, estimation and allocation of risks that do not seem to be defined by the relevant legal regime. In this article I argue that, as a result of regulatory dispersión of administrative contracts, the legal regime of foreseeable risks is unknown, although the rules inflexible contractual design stage.
