Abstract

Professor Michael Furmston begins his fine paper with the statement that ‘Contract textbooks treat it as axiomatic that contractual burdens cannot be assigned’. This commentary can begin with the equally forceful statement that contract textbooks in the United States treat as axiomatic the proposition that most contractual burdens can be freely assigned.
