A categoria causal nos contratos

breves reflexões sobre a concepção subjetiva e objetiva da causa

Abstract

This study aims to reflect upon the cause of the contract. Although much of the legal community understands that the issue is outdated, considering that the Brazilian Civil Code has not adopted the cause as a requirement for the validity of legal affairs, there are still many differences between supporters of causalist theory and anti-causal theory. Thus, the article seeks to deepen the analysis of causal arguments and to verify the importance of the causal category, both in the subjective and objective perspective, starting from the doctrine and comparative law.
