Abstract
the Manifesto emphasises that European private law ought to propose a model of distributive justice that is in alignment with constitutional principles. According to this perspective, this article analyses, firstly, the idea of social justice that is embraced in the Charter of Rights. Secondly, the idea of social justice that is ascribed to private law in the current EC acquis and in harmonisation projects like the PECL is considered.
