It provides a comparative analysis based on national reports from countries with common law and civil law traditions in Asia, America and Europe, and presents the reports in the form of chapters that have been drafted on the basis of a questionnaire, and which use the same structure as the questionnaire to allow them to be easily compared. The book starts with an analysis of the basic assumptions underlying the current consumer protection models and examines whether and how consumer models adapt to the new market conditions. The second part addresses the information obligations themselves, first highlighting the differences in the reported countries before narrowing the analysis down to countries with a general pre-contractual information duty, particularly the transparency requirements that often come with such a duty. The next part examines recent developments in the law on food labelling, commercial practices and unfair contract terms in order to identify whether similar traits can be found in European and non-European jurisdictions. The fourth part of the book focuses on specific information obligations in the financial services and e-commerce sectors, discussing the fact that legislators are experimenting with different forms of summary disclosures in these sectors. The final part provides a critical appraisal of the recent developments in consumer information obligations, addressing the question of whether the multiple criticisms from behavioural sciences necessitate abandonment or refinement of current consumer information models in favour of new, more adequate forms of consumer protection, and providing suggestions. 000914534 546__ $$aArticles in English and French. 000914534 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000914534 650_0 $$aConsumer protection$$xLaw and legislation. 000914534 650_0 $$aDisclosure of information$$xLaw and legislation. 000914534 7001_ $$aStraetmans, Gert. 000914534 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aStraetmans, Gert$$tInformation Obligations and Disinformation of Consumers$$dCham : Springer,c2019$$z9783030180539 000914534 830_0 $$aIus comparatum ;$$vv. 33. 000914534 852__ $$bebk 000914534 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-18054-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000914534 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:914534$$pGLOBAL_SET 000914534 980__ $$aEBOOK 000914534 980__ $$aBIB 000914534 982__ $$aEbook 000914534 983__ $$aOnline 000914534 994__ $$a92$$bISE
