O Inadimplemento antecipado do contrato no direito brasileiro

O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar a doutrina inglesa do “inadimplemento antecipado do contrato” aplicada à realidade do direito brasileiro. Tendo em vista que o ordenamento jurídico brasileiro não possui previsão legal para a quebra antecipada, é importante verificar se o referido instituto, originado de um país da Common Law, se mostra compatível com o nosso sistema legal.
