Contractual law and European aspects

Ne može se raspravljati o ugovornom pravu, bez da se diskutira o Europi. Cjelokupna građa EU, koja se odnosi na ugovorno pravo, obuhvaća: prvo, tzv. primarni zakonodavni okvir, drugo, tzv. sekundarni zakonodavni okvir, treće, praksu Europskog suda, te četvrto, odluke Europske komisije. Dosljedna primjena načela u ugovornom prava (načelo nediskriminacije, jednakog tretmana, transparentnosti, proporcionalnosti i uzajamnog priznavanja), ide u prilog slobodnog natjecanja na tržištu EU i učinkovite javne nabave, a suprotstavlja se mogućim zlouporabama zbog ostvarivanja vlastitih interesa i probitaka.Contractual law cannot be discussed without mentioning Europe. The entire make-up of the EU related to contractual law, includes: firstly, the so called primary legislative framework, secondly, the so- called secondary legislative framework, thirdly, European court practice, and fourthly, decisions of the European Commission. Faithful application of the principles in contractual law (the principle of non-discrimination, equal treatment, transparency, proportionality and mutual recognition), supports free competition in the EU market for effective public procurement, and opposes several possible abuses occurring due to trying to attain individual interests and benefits
