Legal history and comparative law show, however, that it is not possible to cope with these two bodies of rules alone - even if their scope of application is generously conceived. Another part of the law of obligations, alongside the law of unjustified enrichment, which to some extent lies "between" contract and tort and fills the gaps that those areas of the law leave behind, is subject of this Book. The Study Group on a European Civil Code has drafted Principles relating to the unsolicited and voluntary undertaking of another's affairs on the basis of a reasonable ground for intervention: "Principles of European Law: Benevolent Intervention in Another's Affairs".
