The purpose of this thesis is to study the duty to renegotiate as a mechanism of safeguarding of long-term contracts, which, due to their extension in time, are susceptible to the happenstances that derive from changes in social, political and economic circumstances throughout the length of performance. Because the changes in circumstances may denature the risks initially undertook by the parties, and therefore affect the considerations initially exchanged, it is necessary that the parties, adopting a collaborative behavior, renegotiate the contractual basis in order to enable the execution of the contractual program. The duty to cooperate, corollary of the objective good faith, is one of the pillars of the duty to renegotiate, since the execution of long-term contracts requires a more intense level of cooperation from the parties. The social function of the contract is another pillar of the duty to renegotiate, since long -term contracts tend to generate broader and more long-lasting effects in the society. Therefore, the analysis of the interests pertaining to the safeguarding of the contract, by means of renegotiation, must also take into consideration the relevance of such contract to the underlying society. Upon observation of the existing mechanisms that address the impacts of the changes of circumstances in the context of long-term contracts, we will outline the contours of the duty to renegotiate and analyze the consequences of the frustration of the duty to renegotiate, which encompasses not only the failure of the negotiation itself but also the failure to comply with the duty to renegotiate in the first place. And, as to the latter, the remedies available to the harmed party and to the harmed third parties will also be addressed in this thesis
