摘要:缔约过失责任制度是指在合同订立过程中，一方因违背其依据的诚实信用原则所产生的义务，而致另一方的信赖利益的损失，并应承担损害赔偿责任。随着经济的发展和科技水平的提高，人们获得越来越多的交易机会，交易中的纠纷也随之增加，例如缔约时一方当事人违反保密义务而导致纠纷但受害方的合法利益却很难受到保护。这正是因为我国合同法对于缔约过失责任制度的规定过于笼统，把保密义务的适用范围收缩得过窄，使大多数受害人很难得到司法救济。为了保护被害人的合法利益和维护市场交易的安全性，通过本文对该问题进行研究，意在推动我国缔约过失责任制度的完善。

　　　随着我国经济的发展和科技水平的提高，人们的市场交易活动日益频繁，交易中的纠纷也随之增加。市场主体的确立、市场经济秩序的形成、发展以及宏观调控都更加需要依赖法治的规范。但在大力发展社会主义市场经济的进程中，因规范市场运行的法律法规体系的不健全并相伴而生的种种商业不诚信、不道德行为，严重影响和干扰了市场经济的健康发展。传统合同法认为，只有合同有效成立的场合，发生履行不能、履行迟延、履行不完全等才会有合同责任可言。这种观念使合同缔结前当事人利益保护不得诉诸合同法，而侵权法对缔约过程中当事人的合法利益保护也不到位。基于保护当事人利益的需要。缔约过失责任应运而生。
