After a decade of discussion and debate, French contract law has been reformed by an ordinance of 11 February 2016 and took effect on 1st October 2016. The reform codifies a number of principles that have emerged in case law and brings it into line with European and international standards. The new contract law emphasizes the importance of good faith at every step of the contract's negotiation, conclusion and execution as a principle of public order. It revitalizes at the same time the notion of public order and modernizes the language by annulling the morality provision which exists already Napoleon Code since 1804. This study aims to analyze the development of ordre public and morality concept established in the Supreme courts and high courts case law in Taiwan. By classifying the cases into two categories on the basis of the function of ordre public and morality, this article redefines the role of ordre public and morality in contract law from a comparative perspective and tries to give these concepts contemporary meanings which adapts to new challenges. |
