The paper examines the fact that English law, unlike other civil law systems, does not recognise a general duty of 'good faith' in the sense of 'fair dealing' between contractors. The implications of recognising this duty are argued noting that English commercial law can be thus synchronised with the rest of the European Commercial Community.
