Los contratos predispuestos - peyorativamente conocidos como «contratos de adhesión»— tienen mala fama. Una buena porción de académicos y un mayoritario sector de las autoridades de protección al consumidor suelen creer que la ausencia de negociación y la preponderancia de derechos o beneficios asignados al proveedor (versus los costos, obligaciones o limitaciones impuestos al consumidor) revelan una suerte de abuso en contra de una presunta parte débil de la relación de consumo. En este artículo, el profesor Rodríguez García sostiene que la visión hostil o escéptica respecto de los contratos predispuestos es equívoca y se funda en una comprensión pobre de los incentivos y fines que este tipo de contratación desempeña. Por el contrario, el autor pretende poner de manifiesto que el control de las cláusulas contenidas en contratos de consumo perjudica al consumidor y que, por tanto, es una forma de control que debería ser eliminada del sistema legal.

The contract for the sale of goods constitutes a lever for cross-border trade in the Union, the European legislator therefore governs certain aspects. Directive 1999/44/EC reformed by Directive (EU) 2019/771 and Directive 2011/83/EU thus include rules common to Member States, specific to sales. The choice of the specific study of these rules is due on the one hand to the fact that, economically, it is the most common contract on the internal market and on the other hand, to the fact that, legally, the sale remains the archetype of the contract in EU law, thus serving as premises and models for European legislation on consumer contracts

For a contract to exist, usually one party must have made an offer, and the other party must have accepted it. Object of this master’s work is an offer and acceptance in the consumer contracts. Consumer contract means an agreement for goods or services concluded by a natural person with the seller not affiliated with the consumer‘s business. This master‘s work consists of 3 chapters. In the first chapter author analyses a concept of consumer contract and a concept of consumer and businessman (seller, supplier) in the national and in the international law. In the second chapter author reviews a concept of an offer and acceptance, their features and specificity in the consumer contracts. Author also examines the difference between an offer and invitation to treat (an invitation to negotiate). In the third chapter author research an offer and acceptance in the e-contracts (click-wrap contracts, browse-wrap contracts). For the best research, there was analyzed literature in Lithuanian and English, also, rules formulated by the courts and law scholars. In the end of this master’s work author draws the conclusions. This master’s work contents 57 pages.
Waiyamuk, Awnrumpa. "La protection du consommateur en droit international privé européen." Thesis, Paris 2, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA020009.
Consumer protection in European private international law is carried out through protective choice-of-law and jurisdiction rules which are specially designed for cross-border consumer contracts. These rules help balancing the bargaining power and make the professional bear the internationalization cost of consumer contract. With some improvements which should be brought to the existing rules, the method used in European private international law in matters relating to consumer contracts is generally satisfactory. On the other hand, its scope is too narrow. With the criterion of "directed activity", the European model is based on the distinction between passive and active consumers. Only passive consumers are covered by the protective rules. This distinction must not lead to the lack of protection for active consumers. In this thesis, it suggests that European private international law provide protective rules for consumers currently not covered. However, the protection must not be carried out by extending the scope of existing protective rules to active consumers but by establishing a second set of protective rules inspired by a better regulation of freedom of contract and a good compromise between professional’s interests and consumer protection
Douche-Doyette, Nathalie. "La sanction de la violation du droit de la consommation dans les contrats de consommation." Thesis, Université de Lorraine, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012LORR0226/document.
The second half of the 20th century has been marked by the emergence ofconsumer society and correspondingly by the evolution of a new area of law: consumer law. This field of law can be defined as a body of rules aiming at protecting the interests of consumers and which is essentially applied in the context of consumer contracts. The legislator has not established a general system of sanctions for the violation of consumer law provisions. The sanctions are mostly criminal in nature, while the civil sanctions are those provided for by general contract law.On the basis of the existing rules this thesis aims to establish a specific system ofsanctions common to all consumer contracts. The thesis is governed by the search for adequate sanctions which would increase the effectiveness of the legal rules as well as the effectiveness of the protection of consumers. The effectiveness of the reparative function of the sanctions is analysed separately from the effectiveness of their deterrent function. This distinction is necessary, since the reparative function of sanctions is determined by the situation of the victim of the violation of the rules, whereas the deterrent function of sanctions takes into account the situation of the person responsible for the violation
Peglion-Zika, Claire-Marie. "La notion de clause abusive : au sens de l’article L. 132-1 du Code de la consommation." Thesis, Paris 2, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA020071/document.
The legislation on unfair terms set out by Article L. 132-1 of the French Consumer Code is applied on a daily basis. The notion of unfair terms nevertheless remains unclear. Thirty-five years of inconsistent and erratic application have indeed contributed to making this legislation inaccessible and difficult to predict, thereby damaging legal security. The reinforcement of this notion necessitates a two-pronged approach. First of all, the concept must be delimited in order to restrict application solely to those individuals requiring protection against unfair terms and only to those terms that genuinely do generate a material imbalance between the rights and obligations of the parties to the contract. The notion of unfair terms then becomes a mechanism aimed at sanctioning abuses of contractual freedom in consumer agreements. The concept must then be identified, by seeking to define and characterize the standard of material imbalance, in particular against the yardstick of criteria generated by practical application. In doing so, the notion of unfair terms becomes a central notion of consumer law and, more widely, of contract law, in particular with regard to its participation in the renewal of general contract theory

In a building construction operation, two sets of rules, which are construction law and consumer law,are superimposed to bring a level of protection to the consumer purchaser of real estate. Correlatively,they generate many obligations for the professionals. The objective of this research project is thereforeon the one hand to provide an inventory of the various protection issues arising from the cumulativeapplication of these two branches of law and, on the other hand, to propose settlement solutions in caseof "conflict". Although the positive consequences of such a combination are undeniable, this studywould not be complete if one did not also take into account the perverse effects which this dualprotection may entail in practice with regard to the economy of the contract, the building sector and thespirit of construction law in a more general way. The aim is to make law more effective in order tosecure, as far as possible, the construction operation for all the players in the sector: for professionals totake stock of their responsibilities and obligations (entrepreneurs, promoters, architects, bankers,solicitors …), than for the "real estate consumer", who must be able to have a clearer view of thecontracts submitted to him so that his consent might be truly informed
Khalifa, Milad. "La protection du consommateur en droit libyen à la lumière du droit français." Thesis, Rennes 1, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018REN1G006.
Thanks to the emergence of a market economy and more recently of the technological revolution, consumer law has been significantly developed. Therefore, consumer protection was required as the means to rebalance the unequal relations between the consumer, regarded as the weaker party to the complex contractual relation, and the professional for whom the power balance is in favour.In this context, the interest of a study about consumer protection in Libyan law in the light of French law is clearer and can be approached from two angles : on the one hand, it is scientifically challenging to understand how a State like Libya, whose opening up to the world and the private sector development are very recent, integrates consumer protection into its legal system. On the second hand, comparing it with French law provides an added value, because the level of consumer protection in Libyan law has to be measured through French consumer law which is more developed. The comparative approach is relevant in this research as one of the functions of comparative law is to improve the national substantive law.Here, according to the starting hypothesis, consumer law in Libya is underdeveloped compared to French consumer law. So, the comparative approach aims to help improving consumer law in Libya if the starting hypothesis is confirmed. Therefore, we studied consumer protection from the precontractual period to the after contract period including the actual contract conclusion in both legal orders.This research shows that the Libyan consumer is less protected than the French consumer. This is due, amongst others, to socio-political and economic factors, in this case, the low development of the private sector and the low level of the culture of justice which does not enable to develop case-law regarding consumer law. This study has also proved that the Libyan legislator is facing a new challenge, that is, the emergence of distance contracts, which makes consumer protection even more complex
Raschel, Evan. "La pénalisation des atteintes au consentement dans le champ contractuel." Thesis, Poitiers, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013POIT3006/document.
Priority has long been given to criminalisation in response to the important increase in the commission of fraud, fraudulent abuse of vulnerable persons, duress, or other refusals of consent in the contractual field. Whilst the scope of this criminalisation is impressive, it also raises questions. The offences are poorly circumscribed, and their constructions turn out to be incoherent. Above all, criminal law appears in many cases diverted from its proper function. Even when criminal law is used as an auxiliary enforcement to other disciplines or external regulations, the resort to the criminal penalty follows its own ends according to which it should appear necessary and proportionate. This diversion must be resolved through a decriminalisation of refusals of consent in the contractual field. In order to avoid diminishing the protection of contractors, it is necessary to search for credible substitutes to criminal penalties, which are both effective and adapted to litigation involving the infringement of contractual consent. In order to amount to more than purely symbolic decriminalisation, these substitutes should also consist of innovative measures. Administrative sanctions must be discarded in favour of the civil law route. Civil sanctions must however be reinforced in order to overcome the existing limitations and drawbacks faced by civil law in the prevention and sanctioning of refusals of consent in the contractual field

Information for operators, professionals or not, is the main tool of confidence in the digital economy and the European and national texts have proliferated to reinforce this in a more and more comprehensive way. Based on its origins (common law, the Consumer Code, special laws), the study will seek to make an inventory and classify the different sources of information obligations by providing different typologies adapted to their nature or purpose (the object and its price, duration, terms) and their role in the contract process (pre-contractual information, information on the formalization of the contract, the withdrawal). It will discuss the difficulties associated with the combination of special rules and common law (contradictions, variations, overlapping). In the silence of specific texts, it will also cover the penalties for non compliance with the obligation of information depending on whether it questions or not the validity of the consent (void contract, unenforceable)
Jay, Caroline. "Le risque santé et la souscription d’assurance du crédit." Thesis, Université de Lorraine, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017LORR0395.
Health is a risk. The main purpose of insurance is to cover individuals against life’s uncertainties. However, because of the economic nature of this activity, insurers discard more and more the highest risks from their mutuality. This practice, named segmentation, is perfectly allowed. The insurer may, at the time of precontractual discussions, carry out a risk assessment by investigating the personal and intimate situation of the applicant. Several observations can be made. Evidence of discrimination is no longer precise. The techniques for information gathering emancipate themselves from a secure legal framework. The existence of an increased risk has unreasonable consequences on the insurance contract. In France, more than 2.7 million people are, in the sense of insurers, increased risks profiles due to their health status. Those are people living with diabetes, Parkinson's disease or other cancerous pathologies. For them, access to insurance rhymes with refusal, exclusion or additional premia. This phenomenon contributes to a real social injustice, especially when the insurance contract is necessary to be granted a mortgage. For this reason, and under pressures from associations, some measures have been implemented to limit the intrusion of the insurer into the policyholder’s privacy; and in parallel, to strengthen the obligations lying on the professionals to provide information, advice and warning, prior to any contract subscription

The present work analyzes consumer relations in the healthcare plans and in the health insurance based on the principles of vulnerability and trust. It addresses the postmodern context in which this pact is inserted and the reflexes that advancing age can bring to the medical outpatient services. It analyzes this issue from the doctrine, legislation and jurisprudence, investigating the response given by legal operators to the challenges that the aggravation of the vulnerability of the elderly consumer can bring to health insurance and healthcare plans. It seeks to verify the necessary mechanisms to protect the health of the elderly and their confidence, allowing them to enter in these contracts with minimum and non-derogable standards of protection, so it can be had a harmonious social development and balanced economic growth of this important part of the consumer market. It discourses the vulnerability inherent in the relationship of consumption and the indispensability of proper legal interpretation to the protection of the elderly in healthcare plans and health insurance, and the importance of the dialogue of the sources to rebuild elderly consumer confidence. Examines the growing phenomenon of the development of the number of claims at the Judiciary, associated to matters related to health insurance and healthcare plans in Brazil and to the control of clauses and abusive practices in this important sector of the consumer market. Finally, it emphasizes the need for affirmative action in the field of private medical care services through institutional dialogue to rebuild consumer confidence and strengthen the principle of trust, contributing to a harmonious social development and balanced economic growth.

CAPES
A computação em nuvem encontra-se rapidamente se desenvolvendo e oferecendo inúmeras vantagens à indústria da Tecnologia da Informação (TI). Ela tem permitido a realização do antigo sonho da computação tornar-se uma ‘utilidade’. Todavia, esta realidade apresenta riscos e desafios em diferentes áreas, sobretudo no âmbito legal, e nos contratos de consumo em particular. Assim, considerando a complexidade da computação em nuvem, torna-se essencial a busca de um menor grau de incerteza na relação fornecedor-consumidor. A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo analisar e caracterizar as transações de computação em nuvem, tanto nos contratos de serviço, como nos contratos de fornecimento de conteúdo digital. Para tanto, esta tese examinará legislações de natureza internacional e nacional, bem como contratos, que poderão ser utilizados na regulamentação das atividades em nuvem no Brasil. De início, será realizada uma apreciação crítica quanto à possibilidade de aplicação da legislação relativa a um "Direito Europeu Comum de Compra" - denominada na língua inglesa de “Common European Sales Law (CESL) - nos contratos de fornecimento de conteúdo digital realizados entre o Brasil e os Países Membros da União Européia. Em seguida, serão examinadas algumas regras gerais presentes no Código de Defesa do Consumidor brasileiro a fim de ser discutida a aplicabilidade do referido Código nos contratos de computação em nuvem. Por fim, serão estudados três contratos de computação em nuvem oferecidos pelo Google no Brasil com o objetivo de apontar os sérios riscos apresentados para os consumidores ao firmar tais acordos, bem como a adequação de tais instrumentos em face da legislação nacional.
The paradigm of cloud computing has been developing quickly and offers many new advantages to the information technology industry. It is turning the long-held dream of computing as a utility, into a reality. However, it also poses risks and challenges in different fields, especially in the legal area, that may affect the stakeholders of this market. Given the complexity of cloud computing, it is essential to assure that there is little uncertainty in the provider-consumer relationship. This research aims to analyse and characterise cloud computing transactions from a legal perspective, both as a service contract, and as a contract for the provision of digital content. Thus, in this thesis we examine international and national legislation, as well as contracts, which may govern the relationship between cloud stakeholders. Given the international and cross-border nature of the proposed Common European Sales Law (CESL), which may eventually be applied between Brazilian and European contracts, and due to the legal rules which it is based sharing some similarities to the civil law system in Brazil, we begin offering a critical view of the possibility of applying this proposal on a Common European Sales Law to some cloud computing transactions when they supply digital content. Next, we turn to examine whether the Brazilian Consumer Protection Code (CDC), with its existing general rules relating to ‘goods’ and ‘services’, and some other definitions, could be broad enough to cover the necessities of cloud consumers in Brazil. Lastly, we examine the issue of regulating cloud computing through contract. In particular, we identify a set of key legal issues to be considered by consumers when entering into a cloud contract. In order to illustrate their importance, we perform a detailed evaluation of some Google cloud-based agreements to check if they are compatible with existing laws in Brazil.
Ferenbach, Pierre. "Le statut juridique du jeu vidéo." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bordeaux, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023BORD0462.
The concept of video games refers to a game implemented through software and expressed through audiovisual manifestations. As an economic and cultural phenomenon, video games are now available on a multitude of platforms. The advent of the Internet has contributed to the creation of online games. Economic models and delivery methods have also evolved. Its use has become professional with the evolution of esports. The legal analysis of video games reveals that they are now directly regulated by law, through their tax definition and various provisions. However, this approach only allows for partial legal identification. As an object of creation and consumption, video games present an ambivalent legal reality.The legal analysis of video games is first complicated by its duality. The distinction between the audiovisual component and the software component requires a distributive qualification in copyright law. This requires the articulation of the rules applicable to any work of the mind and those specific to software, which has consequences for the status of the various participants in the creation. Nevertheless, the distributive application of copyright rules to the user is limited due to conflicts, making it sometimes impossible to cumulate them by the rights holder. The determination of the applicable rule can only be achieved through the implementation of the accessory rule. It requires prioritizing the different components to deduce the applicable regime for the whole. The legal status of video games is also questioned in terms of its purpose. An initial analysis suggests excluding any protection of the playful purpose of video games by law. Similarly, taking into account the purpose of video games by jurisprudence in order to exclude the classification as an audiovisual work does not seem justified. However, the purpose of video games is relevant at the contractual stage since it allows the identification of contractual obligations on the supplier and the user. It also prompts the qualification of video games as gambling, excluding their classification as a sport based on strict criteria. The qualification has consequences for the legality of organizing the competition and the status of the player, consequences that recent legislation has attempted to address
Huet, Davy. "Le petit professionnel dans ses rapports contractuels." Thesis, Université Clermont Auvergne (2017-2020), 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020CLFAD005.
The « small professional » is not so well identified in current contract law. Whether it concerns general laws of contract or special contract laws, neither really have a vocation to specifically appreciate this economic stakeholder. However, if positive law is not attentive to this contracting party, its emergence at the heart of legal relations is not disputed, and as pointed out in European law, it places itself as witness to this outcome. In consequence, it is proposed to study the expression of the « small professional », on the one hand, through the already-known notions of consumer, non-professional and professional, and on the other hand, through related notions of trader and business company. Many areas are affected by the advent of the « small professional » including contract law, competition law and consumer law. The aim is therefore to emphasize the lack of attention to this party. Within the scope of its contractual relationships, the « small professional » is generally considered as a common professional, despite its special status. The purpose is also to present an adaptation of the rules related to its activities. The content of its rights and duties should be strictly analyzed in order to understand, and make them more appropriate

B to C e-commerce is increasingly gaining popularity. The number of its followers has seen a drastic surge throughout the few recent years. Its advantages in terms of speed, convenience and proximity are not any more questionable by consumers. Nevertheless, the characteristic of this medium used to carry out online transactions as well as the specificities of the electronic environment - in particular the immateriality, the interactivity and internationality - influence considerably cyber-consumers confidence. Simultaneously, they increase their vulnerability. Thus, the need for an appropriate legal framework to regulate the rise of B to C e-commerce and protect cyber-consumers. Taking into account these requirement, community, French and Tunisian legislators set up a number of measures to reassure the latter and allow them to engage confidently in online commerce transactions. These measures have two targets: some of them were intended to grant cyber-consumers an intrinsic protection in the process of the online transaction. This protection is set to be an upstream transaction protection at the pre-contractual phase as well as during the contractual period; i.e. at the level of on line transaction finalization and execution. The others aim to guarantee the consumer an extrinsic protection throughout the process of e-commerce transaction. In this respect, two aspects are taken into account, namely: personal data processed during transactions and the aspects of private international law of cyber-consumer protection

Analysing the link between a subject of law (the consumer) and a technical law area as technical as insurance law is not an easy task. Yet, such a study is necessary in view of the pratical importance of the issue – there are millions of insurance contracts underwritten and thousands of lawsuits – and given the highly topical « loi Hamon » adopted on March 17, 2014. Moreover it is a well-known fact that consumer is in a weak position xhen facing insurance and therefore requires protection. But wich area of law is best placed to protect him : consumer law or insurance law ? And may conflicts of laws arise ? Indeed consumer law offers an undoubted protection, in particular with regards to consumer information and fight against unfair contracts termes. However, insurance law dit not wait for the advent of consumerism to protect every policy holder and not only consumers. Both laws do not share the same view of insurance consumer nor of the way consumer insurance must be regulated. This thesis hangs on those two majors hinges. It defines not only who are the individuals to be protected but also what is the scope of that protection. In each case, actual and potential conflict of laws are specifically highlighted

Consumers have bounded rationality and exhibit cognitive biases. The thesis studies the consequences of such biases on consumer choice and implications on consumer policy. Each chapter of the thesis investigates one specific bias (quality bias, utility misperception and projection bias) in a given market structure. The first two chapters focus on stan- dard duopoly models, in whichcognitive biases are incorporated: I build a horizontally differentiated duopoly based on Dixit (1979)in chapter 1, and a vertically differentiated duopoly inspired by Gabszewicz & Thisse (1979) in chapter 2. As for the third chapter, it extends to three periods, in a monopolistic framework, the projection bias model proposed by Loewenstein et al. (2003). I come to the conclusion that, while cognitive biases sometimes lead to suboptimal consumption decisions (chapters 1 and 2), naive consumers can be better off than their sophisticated counterparts(chapter 3). This observation pleads in favor of a non-systematic and context dependant legal intervention to counter cognitive errors. I argue in favor of a new approach of consumer policy, that would focus less on information disclosures in favor of debiasing schemes. Examples of such debiasing policies are discussed throughout the thesis

En el presente artículo, los autores nos hablan de los seguros de grandes riesgos y describen su tratamiento en la legislación extranjera. Luego, señalan que el rol protector del Estado en la relación de consumo es reducir las asimetrías informativas, pero no existe una obligación total de divulgación de información en el mercado.

The consumer is the weak party in the cross-border consumer relation. The globalization process presents itself for the consumer as a globalization of consumers relations. The globalization of consumers relations is defined by international commerce and supply of products and services by transnational/global entrepreneurs/ suppliers, using global renowned brands names, available for all consumers of the planet, aggravating the consumers vulnerability in the market. The juridical international consumers protection is a necessity that has not been properly dealt with neither by the national legal systems nor by International Law. The present thesis shows the deficiency of Juridical Science to consumers protection in a globalization context; it shows how international commerce suffers harms when it does not prioritize the consumers protection in WTO, and when it has no reaction against different consumers protections levels by the distinct national legislation; it also shows, how consumers protection by a global and uniform law for all States is possible and can be more economically efficient for the process of globalization of consumers relations, because it encourages a intensive consumer participation in the international market; and proposes to build a new branch of law dedicated to the problem, the International Consumer Law (ICL), by a Theory of International Consumer Law. The International Consumer Law intends to be a general and universal law about consumers protection, based on universal methods, concepts, institutes, rules and principles. The ICL is going to dialogue with others branches of law, specially with International Economic Law, Global Trade Law, Private International Law (Conflict of Laws), Transnational Litigation Law, Consumer Protection Law and Products Liability Law. The intention of this thesis is to deal with the ideal of promoting free international trade taking into account respect for humans rights.

The internationalization of the consumption of products and services is a phenomenon that can be seen in developed countries, like the case of France, but also to a large extent in developing countries like Brazil. Such internationalization has important implications for the protection of consumers, which are considered in most countries as a weak party that deserves to be protected. This internationalization also raises interesting private international law issues. In this work, we will study the issues related to the determination of the competent jurisdiction and the law applicable to such contracts, from both the French and the Brazilian law perspectives

The propose of this work is to analyze the right that the right that consumers have to be oriented and informed and the consequences of this right is not observed by the financial institutions especially in loan contracts and considering the vulnerability of the consumers. We will begin doing an explanation of the legal regime of the financial institutions on Brazilian Constitution, the Central Bank and the Monetary Authority, as well as the possibility for self-regulation. Then we will analyze the legal protection of the consumer in Brazil, with main focus on the information right. We will study the concept of good faith in legal terms and the responsibility of financial institutions in abusive loan contracts regarding consumers. There will be a highlight on de vulnerability of the consumer and de concept of consumers that are more vulnerable than others. This paper intends to demonstrate that loan contracts sign with disregard of the information right by the financial institution to not oblige the consumer. As a consequence of this violation, the contract should be considered as not valid and the parties involved must return to the previously situation
O objetivo deste trabalho será analisar o papel do direito à informação do consumidor e do dever de educação do fornecedor e a responsabilidade jurídica que as instituições financeiras possuem nos contratos de mútuo bancário no direito brasileiro, especialmente considerando a vulnerabilidade do consumidor. Iniciaremos fazendo uma explanação do regime jurídico das instituições financeiras na Constituição Federal, no Brasil pelo Banco Central e Conselho Monetário Nacional, bem como a possibilidade de autorregulação de suas atividades. Após, trataremos da proteção jurídica do consumidor, especialmente o direito à informação. Será analisado ainda o conceito de boa-fé objetiva, bem como a responsabilidade dos fornecedores nos contratos de mútuo no que tange aos consumidores. Neste ponto, serão destacados a vulnerabilidade do consumidor e o conceito de consumidores hipervulneráveis. Este trabalho pretende demonstrar que os contratos de mútuo celebrados com desrespeito ao dever de informação por parte do fornecedor não vinculam o consumidor. Como consequência desta violação, o contrato deverá ser considerado nulo e, assim, as partes deverão voltar ao status quo anterior à celebração do contrato

Rodet-Profit, Alix. "Le contrat d'assurance maritime à Rouen dans l'Ancien droit." Thesis, Paris 2, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA020010.
Shipping insurance is the first known form of insurance. It was instituted at the end of the Middle Ages and spread to the whole of Europe in the sixteenth century. Rouen, as one of the largest commercial and maritime cities in the Kingdom of France, was the first and indeed the only city to be given a patent for insurance as early as 1556. It is therefore the ideal place in which to study such a contract in this country. The fluctuating nature of insurance quickly pinpointed the problem of balancing the interests of the parties involved. On the one hand, the insured person needed to be able to benefit from guaranties allowing him to resort to insurance. Similarly, the insurer needed to be protected since he not only had the responsibility of the voyage, with the risks that that implied, but was also dependent on the honesty of the person insured. Together with their “insurance agents”, the merchants of Rouen therefore sought and adopted solutions to this problem. The Royal Ordinance of Shipping, in 1681, – the first French legislation on insurance – then endeavoured to unify the customs and uses carried out in the Kingdom of France. It offered various measures to develop this contract between the insured and the insurer. Maritime insurance, together with the many other sectors of law such as that of obligations, commercial law, maritime law, law pertaining to Exchange or to Societies, then evolved under the combined influence of the judiciary and of merchants, continually seeking a contractual balance

This paper has as its objective to analyze the role of the consortium agency as well as of BACEN (Central bank of Brazil), having as its base the Consortium Law Law nº 11.795, from October, 8th, 2008 and the rules of the Uniform Commercial Code which is, at the same time, the main topic and main goal of such dissertation. In order to handle this analysis, it was used, as methodological support, the exploratory research with deductive and investigative approach; also, the bibliography research technique was used, with a theory reference based on secondary sources, especially the doctrine and jurisprudence are taken into consideration. As the organization is concerned, the paper is divided in six chapters, which are considered essential to cover the theme proposed herein. Thus, in the first chapter, the system of consortiums to acquire assets and services is discussed. The second is dedicated to the study of the principle sustaining the consume relations under the Federal Constitution, also mentioning the Consumer Code. In the sequence, the third chapter guides us to the definition, principles and peculiarities of Consumer s contracts, ending with the standard contracts analysis and the general contractual clauses. The fourth and fifth chapters talk about the contract and the contract of consortiums in relation to the UCC. The sixth and last chapters explore, inside the scope of the research, the role of the agency of consortiums and the Central Bank in Brazil when faced with the disciplinary measures of the Consortium Law and the UCC. From the study, it is possible to conclude that even though there is uncertainty concerning the jurisprudence, specifically as the administrative fee charges are concerned, the new legislation has brought harmony for the interested parties, strengthening the balance between the contract and its social function, with benefits for the civil society and specially in the sake of the consumer
Analisar o papel da administradora de consórcios e do Bacen, tendo por base a Lei dos Consórcios Lei nº 11.795, de 8 de outubro de 2008 e o regramento do Código de Defesa do Consumidor é, ao mesmo tempo, tema central e principal objetivo da presente dissertação. Para dar conta desta tarefa utilizou-se, como suporte metodológico, a pesquisa exploratória de abordagem investigativa dedutiva e a técnica de pesquisa bibliográfica, com referencial teórico baseado em fontes secundárias, especialmente a doutrina e jurisprudência especializadas. Quanto à organização, o trabalho está dividido em seis capítulos, considerados essenciais para circundar a temática então proposta. Assim, no primeiro capítulo, discorre-se sobre o sistema de consórcios para aquisição de bens e serviços. O segundo se dedica ao estudo da principiologia que dá sustentação às relações de consumo a partir da Constituição Federal, espraiando-se para o Código consumerista. Em seguida, no terceiro capítulo, o estudo envereda para a definição, princípios e peculiaridades dos contratos de consumo, terminando com o contrato de adesão e as cláusulas gerais contratuais. O quarto e quinto capítulos abordam o contrato e o contrato de consórcios em relação ao CDC. O sexto e último capítulo explora, dentro do escopo da pesquisa, o papel das administradoras de consórcio e do Bacen diante das disciplinas da Lei dos Consórcios e do CDC. Do estudo, retira-se que, não obstante a incerteza em sede jurisprudencial, especificamente, quanto à cobrança das taxas de administração, a nova legislação trouxe harmonia para os interesses das partes, fortalecendo o equilíbrio do contrato e sua função social, com benefícios à sociedade civil e, em especial, à tutela do consumidor

El presente estudio tiene como objeto omnicomprender el impacto del consumo de drogas en el mundo laboral, mediante el estudio de los presupuestos fácticos de adicción, de los planes de prevención y del accionar de los principales organismos públicos encargados de velar por la erradicación de la droga en el ambiente familiar, educacional y laboral, como también de los efectos del consumo de drogas en la vigencia del contrato de trabajo y, consecuentemente, en las causales que puede invocar el empleador para poner término al vínculo laboral. La presente Memoria, se construirá a partir del examen acucioso de los efectos laborales del consumo de drogas de los trabajadores, a través del estudio de fallos de los tribunales nacionales, de la exposición de las posturas críticas de los actores de prevención del consumo de drogas -Organización Mundial de la Salud, Asociación Chilena de Seguridad, SENDA , etc.- dirigidas a manifestar el descontento ante un sistema no compacto de regulación de la situación laboral del trabajador afecto al consumo de drogas.

From something seen as clear-cut and uncontroversial this doctoral thesis intends to scrutinize in-depth the viability of the Judge s ex officio, ie, without the need of previous provocation by any of the litigants (ex officio), of the unfair terms in consumer-related contracts, and as corollary of such a possibility, of what was intended by the legislator of Consumer Protection Law when qualifying such a rule as a public one. The controversy was underestimated by this candidate. This underestimation has never been caused by disrespect or contemptuous treatment of the legal controversy, on the contrary. The challenges and difficulties arisen as something thought not possess such profound implications, not only within the material law, but also in procedural law (feared), only made the study and the search for answers more enticing. The Judge s expression in itself (ex officio) about the material law turned itself to certain immanentism of the material law with procedural law. So, as researcher of the Consumer Protection Law, it arises impacts or not on the Judge s expression of an unfair terms or any other contra legem interpretation it is not as simple as it might seem. Modulations, forces and various decisional effects had to be addressed in the search for a better answer. Variation which is amplified both on individual as well as on class actions. In parallel with such a confrontation (discovery), also came the complicating element of demystifying what would be the definition of public order. In Brazilian law, the rule is to perceive public order as something imperative, law binding, unattainable. Those features do not cover encompass all situations of the Brazilian Consumer Law (CDC) and forced the researcher to seek more details in foreign sources. The search for definitions, characteristics and effects in foreign law systems widened up even more what the research sought to analyze. Nevertheless the research s scope, it was realized the confrontation of the features of public order would of use to Brazilian law in itself as the focus on different foreign systems would aggrandize and justify the option for the CDC. Finally, as during this investigation the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) pronouncement number nº. 381, whose content goes against this thesis, came to light, its analysis and confrontation turned out to be inevitable
De algo tido como claro e pacífico a tese de doutorado que se propõe busca estudar a fundo a possibilidade da decretação de ofício, ou seja, sem provocação das partes, das cláusulas abusivas nos contratos relacionais de consumo e, como corolário a tal possibilidade, o que pretendeu o legislador do Código de Proteção e Defesa do Consumidor ao qualificar tal norma como de ordem pública. É confessado por este candidato que o tema, a controvérsia, foi subestimado. Tal subestimação jamais foi causada por um possível desrespeito ou um tratamento desdenhoso da controvérsia estritamente jurídica. Muito pelo contrário. Os desafios e as dificuldades que surgiram com algo que se imaginava não possuir um grau tão profundo de implicações não só dentro do direito material, mas principalmente, e mais desafiador sob o direito instrumental (temido) só tornaram o estudo e a busca por resposta mais apaixonantes. Da decretação em si sob o direito material retornou-se a certo imanentismo do direito material com o direito processual. Logo, como materialista do direito consumerista surgem impactos que a mera decretação de ofício ou não de uma cláusula ou qualquer outro ato jurídico contra legem não é simples como aparenta. Modulações, forças e diversos efeitos sentenciais tiveram que ser tratados na busca de uma melhor resposta. Variante que se amplifica tanto nas ações individuais, quanto nas coletivas. Paralelo a tal enfrentamento e a reboque do mesmo veio o complicador de desmistificar o que define a ordem pública. No direito pátrio as doutrinas só preveem a ordem pública como algo imperativo, norma cogente, indisponível. Característica que não engloba todas as situações do CDC e que obrigou o pesquisador a buscar fontes estrangeiras. As buscas no direito estrangeiro por definições, características e efeitos ampliaram mais ainda o que sempre se buscou delimitar na tese. Não obstante, ao olhar sobre a delimitação da tese, cientificamente, percebeu-se que o enfrentamento das características da ordem pública seria de grande valia ao direito pátrio e que o estudo sobre sistemas estrangeiros diferentes só engradeceria e justificaria ainda mais a opção do CDC. Por fim, como no decorrer do estudo surgiu à edição da Súmula 381 do STJ, cujo teor vai de encontro a presente tese, inevitável tornou-se seu estudo e enfrentamento

The present study aims to investigate the differences between the types of civil liability brought by the brazilian consumer defense code and it`s relation with moral damages. To address the topic, fundamental was the analysis of consumer relations and situations of which these relations come from: juristic acts. In these first two steps of the study it was possible to realize there are great relevance in the distinction between defective goods or services and vice of the goods or service. The difference is mainly felt when observed that the obligations originating in safety (fact/defect) and adequacy (vice), because it is possible to figure out that the liability for the first ones are withdraw from de merchants. To validate the differentiation, was study the liability itself when is demonstrated differences between those contractual and non-contractual as well between subjective and objective. The liability component is essential to the final result of the study, because through it becomes possible to analyze harmful conducts, the causal link, guilt, risk, and the damage, when special attention is given to that not patrimonial (moral in a broad sense). The present study is justified because intend to demonstrate a direct way that once seen the moral damage in a costumer relation, you're facing a lack the security that might be expected of that product or service, so there is no civil liability, the priori, of the merchant. The relevance of this demonstration is legal certainty that will be generated both for the merchant as to the Judiciary as a whole. Finally, the hypothesis, that remained committed, is the withdraw of the merchant liability when established moral damage to the consumer from products or services places on the market.
O presente estudo tem como objetivo averiguar as diferenças entre os tipos de responsabilidade civil trazidos pelo Código de Defesa do Consumidor e sua relação com o dano moral. Para enfrentar o tema, fundamental foi a análise das relações de consumo e as situações das quais estas relações provém: negócios jurídicos. Nestes dois primeiros passos do trabalho pode-se perceber que há grande relevância na distinção entre vício e fato do produto ou serviço. A diferença é principalmente sentida por uma espécie do gênero fornecedores, eis que quando observada a consequência dos deveres originários de segurança (fato/defeito) e adequação (vício) nota-se que o legislador afastou, em regra, a responsabilidade civil dos comerciantes em razão daqueles primeiros. Para validar a diferenciação, realiza-se um estudo aprofundado da responsabilidade civil, quando demonstra-se as diferenças entre aquelas contratuais e extracontratuais, bem como subjetiva e objetiva. O componente da responsabilidade civil é essencial para o resultado final do estudo, pois por meio dele torna-se possível analisar a conduta antijurídica, o nexo causal, culpa, risco, além do dano, quando é dada especial atenção àquele não patrimonial (moral em sentido amplo). Justifica-se o presente estudo porque pretende demonstrar de uma forma direta que uma vez constatado o dano moral numa relação de consumo, está-se diante de uma falta à segurança que se poderia esperar daquele produto ou serviço, por isso, afastada a responsabilidade civil, a priori, do comerciante. A relevância desta demonstração é a segurança jurídica que será gerada tanto para o comerciante como para o próprio Poder Judiciário como um todo. Por fim, a hipótese, que restou confirmada, é que afastada fica a responsabilidade civil do comerciante quando constatado um dano moral no consumidor decorrente da colocação de um produto ou serviço no mercado

The objective of this thesis is to establish a principle of contractual justice, especially in Egyptian law, thus benefiting from French and English experiences in this regard. In terms of precision, we deal with situations of dependence where contracts are formed, from the outset, unbalanced. The idea for this thesis was implemented due to the French reform of contract law in 2016. The latter has been devoted to article 1143 of the Civil Code a new vice of consent: the vice of abuse of dependence related to the duress. In this perspective, we had the idea of comparing this new vice with the fourth vice; in the Egyptian law known as the vice of exploitation, which mainly deals with abuses of the moral weakness of the parties. In order to present an unprecedented comparative experience, we decided to integrate the English law in our field of research. The originality of this subject also appears in the fact of simultaneously treating dependence and contractual equilibrium. However, the subject of this thesis encounters several difficulties which concerns not only dependence, but also contractual justice. First of all, concerning the dependence: its concept has so far been unclear. The dependence is surrounded by several other notions which only hide it instead of clarifying it such as the state of necessity, the vulnerability, the state of need, the state of weakness, the constraint, the subordination, the ignorance, and the inexperience. In addition, dependence, mainly in French law, was known at the outset to special law, that is to say in criminal, consumer or competition law. It had no precise concept in contract law. We note in the end that dependence is a subjective state of moral weakness, but which must also widen to encompass adhesion or standard contracts and contracts including unfair terms. This perspective would provide real protection for weaker parties.As far as contractual balance is concerned, in addition to its conceptual imprecision, it encounters a more serious difficulty. This is contrary to the traditional and usual logic of autonomy of will known in the three legal systems. That is to say that the contract is correctly formed from the moment the parties grant their consents, even if the contract itself is unequal or unbalanced from the formation.However, the contract is properly formed unless proven otherwise. This gives a vision of the legal philosophy adopted: this is a corrective philosophy and not a preventive one. The legal sanction for unbalanced contracts is a posteriori and not a priori sanction. That is to say, the law establishes contractual balance through contractual imbalance.In our view, the contractual context in general must be strengthened by a legal principle competing with that of autonomy of will. This principle is the contractual justice. The latter would counterbalance the contractual relations usually governed by the principle of the autonomy of the will. It would make it possible to control the justice of contracts a priori.This solution might seem to some "utopian". It is, on the contrary, a very practical solution because balance in contractual relations is a supreme end which will help to decrease the cases of unbalanced contracts or the cases of contracts vitiated by the abuse of dependence

In regulatory jurisdictions that provide for this consumer protection is a group of laws and organizations designed to ensure the rights of consumers, as well as fair trade, competition, and accurate information in the marketplace. The laws are designed to prevent the businesses that engage in fraud or specified unfair practices from gaining an advantage over competitors. Furthermore the importance of the consumer protection is to safeguard the consumer from exploitation. In the absence of consumer protection, consumers were exploited in many ways for example sale of unsafe products, adulteration and hoarding of goods, using wrong weights and measures, charging excessive prices and sale of inferior quality goods. Through various Consumer Protection Acts, business organizations are under pressure to keep away from exploiting consumers. Consumer protection law is considered an area of law that regulates private law relationships between individual consumers and the businesses that sell those goods and services. In 2018, the European Commission is proposing a New Deal for Consumers to ensure that all European consumers fully benefit from their rights under Union law. A study on transparency in online platforms, also published, supports the New Deal’s proposals on online market places. Finally, the different theories show the sophisticated aspects of the French consumer law which has been developing since the Code Napoleon

Consumer protection law is inherently impacted by EU law. European contract law in general, and European consumer protection law specifically, are at the heart of tensions between EU institutions. Driven by a desire to create a European Civil Code covering contract law, tort and negligence law, and negotiorum gestio, EU institutions are confronted with fear and hesitation at the local level regarding their specific characteristics. The legal debate analyses and assesses the short-term and structural impacts resulting from the 'Europeanisation' of consumer protection law. Like it or not, socio-economic conditions are changing and we can no longer disregard a global and European approach, if only to promote and expand the internal European market. Consumer protection law is an area where opposing interests collide, and these should be reconciled. That's why there have been proposals to standardise law at the European level – to create a homogeneous group of laws that are clear and accessible and that would guarantee efficient protection for consumers, who are key to this whole process
