Abstract

The objective of this study is to analyze the state liability for culpa in contrahendo and post factum finitum given the nature and complexity of the rules governing the different stages of administrative contracts. It examines whether the assumptions governing business relationships based mainly on objective good faith and trust may be extended to administrative contracts, in order to protect the contracting party that guides its conduct by such premises, protecting the right of compensation for damages and future earnings, especially when the exhaustion of the contract occurs because of a conduct attributed to the state. Regarding the methodology applied, the article adopted the inductive method for establishing the conceptual assumptions and practices applied to the issue of state liability for culpa in contrahendo and post factum finitum, so as to establish to what extent the interpretation of the legal provisions favors the application of this responsibility and the consequent determination of its effects and extension.

Keywords: state responsibility, administrative contract, culpa in contrahendo, post factum finitum, objective good faith.
