In particular, it assesses whether the consumer benchmarks are suitable in terms of achieving the three goals of the Directive: achieving a high level of consumer protection, increasing the smooth functioning of the internal market, and improving competition in the market as such. In addition to providing a thorough analysis of the consumer benchmarks and their relationship to the goals of the Directive, at a more practical level, the book provides insight into the working and consequences of the benchmarks that can be used in the evaluation of the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive and its application by the CJEU. This assessment is important because the Directive, while promising to regulate unfair commercial practices in a way that achieves the Directive?s goals, has removed the possibility for Member States to regulate unfair commercial practices themselves. 000727086 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (viewed May 14, 2015) 000727086 650_0 $$aCompetition, Unfair$$zEuropean Union countries. 000727086 650_0 $$aConsumer protection$$xLaw and legislation$$zEuropean Union countries. 000727086 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319139234 000727086 830_0 $$aStudies in European economic law and regulation ;$$vvolume 5. 000727086 852__ $$bebk 000727086 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-13924-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000727086 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:727086$$pGLOBAL_SET 000727086 980__ $$aEBOOK 000727086 980__ $$aBIB 000727086 982__ $$aEbook 000727086 983__ $$aOnline 000727086 994__ $$a92$$bISE
