Summary
The article provides a scientific insight into the sources of Article 1587 of the Civil Law of the Republic of Latvia and their role in the development of pacta sunt servanda principle. The article presents an insight into evolvement of pacts in Roman law and during the reception of Roman law, including an assessment of the influence of canon law on the development of the pacta sunt servanda principle as a basis of the principle of freedom of contract and its role in overcoming the numerus clausus principle in Roman contract law. Finally, an analysis of particular law sources is presented, demonstrating a common approach to the reception of Roman law in the south-west of Germany and the Baltic provinces.
