Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new and timely work provides up-to-date and detailed analysis of the new Unfair Contract Terms Law (UCTL) that was introduced as part of the Australian Consumer Law reforms of 2010, and which took effect in each state and territory from 1 January 2011. The UCTL represents a radical change in consumer protection law and in contract law. In Unfair Contract Terms Law in Australia experienced author and senior lecturer Dr Jeannie Paterson explains the operation of the UCTL and considers the implications for standard boilerplate terms in consumer contracts. The work also examines the background to the reforms and utilises precedents drawn from similar regimes that have operated in Victoria and the UK. UNFAIR CONTRACT TERMS IN AUSTRALIA will be highly useful for litigation purposes and compliance work. It will appeal to competition, consumer and commercial solicitors and barristers as well as regulators involved in drafting, reviewing and enforcing standard form consumer contracts. Traders dealing with consumers will find this work invaluable as they review their contracts to ensure compliance with the legislation. UNFAIR CONTRACT TERMS IN AUSTRALIA is a vital resource for the adjustment to, and ongoing compliance with, the new law.

Download or read book Protecting Consumers from Unfair Contract Terms written by Paul Latimer and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consumer movement in the 1960s was the first step towards creating community demand for laws providing for the protection of consumers. Australia responded with consumer protection laws in the 1970s, and with unfair contract laws in the 1980s at the state level, since replaced by Commonwealth provisions in the Australian Consumer Law. The EU drafted and adopted in 1993 the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Directive to provide protection from unfair contracts. The Directive has now resulted in consumer contract laws in Europe ranging from prohibition in some EU jurisdictions to the low impact approach of rendering unfair terms void or non-existent in other EU jurisdictions such as in France. The latest European legislation is now to be found in the new unfair contract amendments in the UK in the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (UK), which has replaced earlier UK legislation from the 1970s. In proscribing unfair contract laws, the UK Act carries forward and updates the current fairness test, and includes a 'grey list' of consumer contract terms 'which may be regarded as unfair. This article reviews the operation of unfair contract laws from an Australian comparative perspective, including developments in Europe and the UK. It includes some comparisons from outside the EU with parallel developments in the Asia-Pacific area to demonstrate law making in response to consumer demands in different jurisdictions and to show that cultural difficulties can be overcome to ensure an adequate response to unfair contracts for the benefit of consumers.

Download or read book Contract Law Minimalism written by Jonathan Morgan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercial contract law is in every sense optional given the choice between legal systems and law and arbitration. Its 'doctrines' are in fact virtually all default rules. Contract Law Minimalism advances the thesis that commercial parties prefer a minimalist law that sets out to enforce what they have decided - but does nothing else. The limited capacity of the legal process is the key to this 'minimalist' stance. This book considers evidence that such minimalism is indeed what commercial parties choose to govern their transactions. It critically engages with alternative schools of thought, that call for active regulation of contracts to promote either economic efficiency or the trust and co-operation necessary for 'relational contracting'. The book also necessarily argues against the view that private law should be understood non-instrumentally (whether through promissory morality, corrective justice, taxonomic rationality, or otherwise). It sketches a restatement of English contract law in line with the thesis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Rethinking EU Consumer Law, the authors analyse the development of EU consumer law on the basis of a number of clear themes, which are then traced through specific areas. Recurring themes include the artificiality of the EU’s consumer image, the problems created by the drive towards maximum harmonisation, and the unexpected effects EU Consumer Law has had on national law. The book argues that EU Consumer Law has the potential of enhancing the protecting of consumers throughout the EU and could offer a model for consumer law elsewhere in the world, but in order to unlock this potential, there needs to be a rethink with regard to the EU’s approach to consumer law and policy.
