Green Economy-Based Agreements from The Perspective of Private Law
The problem addressed in this research concerns the global issue of environmental protection through the examination of the role played by the incorporation of sustainability principles into private contracts in shaping the legal concepts of freedom of contract, good faith, and civil liability. The normative legal methodology used in the research implies a qualitative study of legislation and legal philosophy, showing that green clauses restrict the notion of absolute freedom of contract by imposing responsibilities for the prevention of adverse environmental impacts and by establishing civil liability for negligent or harmful behavior toward the environment. In addition, these clauses encourage parties to adopt more responsible and ethical standards in their contractual relations, aligning private interests with broader public and ecological concerns. As a result, it becomes possible to formulate a doctrinal rule according to which private actors must take environmental considerations into account when performing any activity, thereby contributing to sustainable development and long-term ecological balance.
