摘要:

“债务之诉”、“违约之诉”、“请求返还动产之诉”与“账目之诉”是14世纪前存在于英格兰王室法院的主要契约诉讼形式, 它们都因程序的僵化而无法提供充足的救济并对契约法的发展带来障碍。兴起于14世纪的“承诺之诉”, 经过逐步扩张最终发展为统一的契约诉讼方式。契约诉讼形式的内在演进是普通法系契约法起源的独特路径, 契约诉讼的发展得益于对侵权理论的借用, 中世纪英格兰司法权的分化与竞争是契约诉讼发展的动力。

Abstract:

The actions of debt, covenant, detinue and account were the main forms of action involving contracts before the 14th century in England.But the rigidity of their procedures prevented them from providing sufficient remedies for the development of society.Assumpsit occurred in the 14th century and unified all the contract action after its extension over a long time.The contracts of Common Law originated in the evolution of the forms of actions.The early contract law also relied on tort theory, and the separation and competition of judicial powers in England in the Middle age improved the development of contract law.

Key words: contract, form of action, evolution
