The notion of foreseeability is at the heart of contracts and is based on the notion of corrective justice with a normative content. The quantum of damages should represent the obligational content of the contract. The analysis of foreseeability shows the importance of reasonable expectations and implied obligations. The notion brings to light criteria which are congruent with the criteria of certainty and predictability underlying the rule of law.
