Can there be any unilateral modification of contract in French law? Due to the increasing influence of unilateralism in French contract law, the author examines how this phenomenon, seen only in their modification role, combines and interacts with the current view or update of the binding effect of di or good faith, which ultimately keeps a close relationship with the way the contract is intended to be apprehended. Indeed, from the definition of unilateral change, this essay seeks to demonstrate that the degree of unilateralism can be variable in both the initiative and the decision to modify the contract; these grades will be accepted or tolerated by the law depending on their influence on the processus.

Palabras clave : Contract unilateralism; modification; binding effect of contract; good faith; lack of foresight.
