Contracts are regarded as social and legal institutions. The contribution focuses on forms of contracts within the immediate social environment and addresses various occasions and different modes of negotiated wealth transfers. A contract is always to be understood as an obligation: it establishes a debt obligation – in specific cases between genders and generations. On one hand, this poses the question of which factors gave bargaining power to men and women in different biographical stages and, on the other hand, of particular situations in which a written contract has been deemed necessary.
