Summary
Sibylle Hofer analyzes the various attitudes towards contractual freedom as the basis for private law in the 19th century. She examines the discussions about Roman and German private law and about certain dogmatic questions which took place at that time. This gives us an insight into the prevailing opinions about the basic idea of private law. In this analysis, she also deals with the economics of the 19th century, in which the fundamental structure of private law was discussed intensively. Furthermore, she proves that the opinions expressed by economists often influenced the legal debate.
