Abstract
Aim. To substantiates the existence of the stages of offer and acceptance when concluding an agreement between those present (inter presentes), which is denied in many modern publications on Russian law.
Methodology. The legal doctrine on the issue of concluding a contract, including non-classical approaches to contractual regulation, has been studied. The methods of empirical legal research are used to determine the correlation of legally predetermined ideas about the contract with real contractual work.
Results. It is concluded that the qualification of the draft agreement signed by one of the parties as an offer in the courts of Russia is theoretically correct and axiologically meets the goals of the existence of the concept «the moment of conclusion of the contract».
Research implications. The results of the study allow us to consider such modern phenomena as clickcontract, wrap-contract through the prism of the offer-acceptance scheme. In addition, the opponents of this scheme universality receive arguments for further refutation in the course of scholar discussion.
