要约与承诺:
1、 合同谈判,必然是要围绕合同的标的进行意见交换、充分 协商(bargain exchange for consideration),这个过程中双 方针对特定的合同标的彼此相互做出各自的“许诺 (promise)”。这些“许诺(promise)”在谈判中不断明 确和完整,最后依法导致合同成立。在谈判中,在先一方提出 的“许诺(promise)”,从法律概念上讲,就是“要约 (offer)” ,而在后一方做出的“许诺(promise)”,分成 两种情况,如果完全接接受前者的条件,并订立合同,从法律 概念上讲,这就是“承诺(acceptance)”;如果不完全接 受前者的条件,并向前者提出新的条件,这就又提出新的要 约——反要约(count offer)。这与中国合同法律制度中关于 要约与承诺的规定,基本上相同,或者可以说是相同的法律概 念,在中国合同法律制度中,关于要约与承诺有较为明确的规 定:
3、 实质违约(material breach),是指实质性的、故 意的违约,合同另一方因此根本无法达成合同目的。 如:货物买卖合同中,供方根本就不准备或不能够 交付约定的货物,需方根本就得不到合同约定的东 西,这就是一种实质性的违约。而非实质性的、过 失性的违约发生时,违约方通常不存在故意违约, 且无违约方可能还能达成一定的合同目的,但与合 同履行标准不符。例如:货物买卖合同的当事人一 方可能只是无法及时交货、可能只是无法在约定地 点交货,或者服务合同中的服务标准与约定不符等 等。在非实质性违约的情况下,补偿是有限的,一 方面是因为合同通常有责任限制约定,另一方面是 法律通常对此种违约的赔偿也做出限制规定。在实 质违约情况下,无过错方当事人(the innocent party)将取得如下法定的权利:
C、 提前解除合同的权利(the right to terminate the contract)。指在实质违约发生后,无过错方可以单 方面决定解除合同,终止合同的效力。 D、获得法令救济的权利(the right to get injunctive relief)和要求继续具体履行的权利(the right to get specific performance)。前者,主要是指可以通过法 律程序阻止违约方继续违约行为;后者主要是指无 过错方仍然可以强制要求违约方继续实际履行合同 约定的义务,并承担合同约定的责任。如:买卖合 同中,强制不交货的违约方实际按合同约定要求交 付货物;服务合同中,强制不提供服务的违约方实 际按合同标准提供服务。

Exceptions to Prior Restraint
Protecting National Security, Public Education, and Harmonious Society. Fighting Words and Hate Speech. Clear and Present Danger. The Brandenburg Test.
Prior Restraint Overturned
• The Court overruled the government’s “National Security” defense. • They took very broad view of the 1st Amendment, one not focused on the impact of a government victory on the life of a democratic society if prior restraint were granted; • but that the publication of just these sorts of materials—governmental misjudgments and misconducts of high import—is exactly why the First Amendment exists: To protect free speech.
Press Restraint on Iraq War
• During the Iraq War (2003-2013) the government used press restraint to cover-up everything. • the Bush administration banned media from publishing photos of dead soldiers’ coffins arriving in Washington, D.C. • The rule was simply government prior restraint, but Bush argued the families of the dead had asked them to restrict the press! • Obama lifted many of the Bush press restraints on Iraq War coverage in 2009.
The Pentagon Papers Case
• June 13, 1971, The New York Times printed the first of a series of articles from a classified document called “The Pentagon Papers.” • The article exposed high-level government errors and misconducts during 6 years of war in Vietnam. • President Richard Nixon immediately claimed executive authority and forced the Times to suspend publication of further articles based on The Pentagon Papers.
The Vietnam War
• During Vietnam, however, the US government under the Johnson and Nixon Administrations used National Security many times to restrict press coverage on a number of issues, including the Pentagon Papers Case in 1971. • In those cases, the US Supreme Court did not agree with the national security defense for prior restraint, and sided with the press, thereby strengthening press freedoms.
Orders
• A gag order is an order from a judge stopping reporters from talking or writing about a case that has not yet been decided. • These restrictions are intended to protect the right to a fair trial, and to avoid interference with the judicial process. • But, they are a form of prior restraint, and the press in particular has often objected to such orders.
The Government’s Role
• There were many improprieties in how US Attorney General John Mitchell had obtained a restraining order against the New York Times. • The injunction also names NYT publishers, editors and writers as defendants. • The NYT obeyed the injunction, but they immediately released copies of the Pentagon Papers to the Washington Post and 7 other daily newspapers which published articles that further embarrassed Richard Nixon and other members of the Nixon and Johnson administrations, particularly Robert S. McNamara Secretary of War.
Exceptions to Prior Restraint
Not all restrictions on free speech are outlawed by the prior restraint doctrine. 1. Publication of information affecting national security, particularly in wartime, may be restricted. 2. Publication of information on court cases in progress may be restricted by an injunction. 3. Instances of “hate speech” or “fighting words” may also be restricted
Exception #1: National Security
• The US Government may legally restrict publication of information affecting national security, particularly in wartime. • During WWII, war correspondents went with military forces, and their reports were subject to advance censorship to preserve military secrets. • WWII censorship was not generally challenged, and no major court case arose from this issue.
National Security after WWII
• Obviously, World War II was a necessary war, one that the allied nations, including China, fought and eventually won for purposes of national security from Japanese and German attacks. • The Government could effectively use interests of national security or national defense as a defense for prior restraint.
NY Times v. United States
• New York Times Co. v. United States, (1971), was a landmark decision by the US Supreme Court on the First Amendment. • Since then, many presidents have claimed press restraint citing national security. • This is controversial. Many argue that the national security is an excuse to cover up government errors and embarrassment.
Exception #2: Injunctions/Gag Orders
