Abstract
The Study Group on Social Justice in European Private Law was born at the University of Amsterdam in September 2003, at the initiative of Hugh Collins and Martijn Hesselink. Further meetings took place at the London School of Economics (January 2004), and Paris (April 2004), thanks to the UMR de droit comparé de Paris I, Université Paris I (notably the Director, Hélène Ruiz Fabri and a member of the group, Horatia Muir Watt) where various interested members of the group from throughout Europe convened to deliberate. From these meetings and intensive e-mail discussions emerged the collective Manifesto on Social Justice in European Contract Law. The Manifesto was published in November 2004 in the European Law Journal.
