subjective theory of contract

  

Definition

Older (early 19th century) legal concept that the existence of a binding agreement between two (or more) parties is determined by the existence of concurrence of intention ('meeting of minds') between the consenting parties. Modern (late 19th century) practice favors objective theory of contract that relies on external acts of the parties.
