Consumer Law and Socioeconomic Development
This book reflects the research output of the Committee on the International Protection of Consumers of the International Law Association (ILA). The Committee was created in 2008, with a mandate to study the role of public and private law to protect consumers, review UN Guidelines, and to model laws, international treaties and national legislations concerning protection and consumer redress. It has been accepted to act as an observer not only when the UNCTAD was updating its guidelines, but also at the Hague Conference on Private International Law. The book includes the contributions of various Committee members in the past few years and is a result of the cooperation between the Committee members and experts from Australia, Brazil, Canada and China. It is divided into three parts: the first part addresses trends and challenges in international protection of consumers, while the second part focuses on financial crises and consumer protection and the third part examines national and regional consumer law issues.

Tutela Jurídica dos Torcedores
A Lei n.o 14.597/2023 revogou o Estatuto de Defesa do Torcedor, reunindo parte deste diploma legal com outros conjuntos normativos concernentes à temática. Além de dificultar a compreensão do povo dada a confluência de várias normas, eliminou importantíssimos dispositivos no que tange à proteção da incolumidade dos espectadores e do direito de se inteirar de relevantes aspectos das competições. Conflita a Lei Geral do Esporte com a Lei n.o 8.078/90, cuja essência assenta-se na prevenção de vícios, que possam causar acidentes, e na transparência. Destina-se a presente obra a contribuir para a efetiva proteção de todos aqueles que sejam destinatários finais das competiçõe...
Superendividamento dos Consumidores de Boa-Fé
O severo desequilíbrio econômico de aproximadamente 30 milhões de brasileiros ensejou a edição da Lei Federal n.o 14.181/2021, pois o nosso País não mais poderia continuar ignorando a necessidade de disciplinar a prevenção e o tratamento de tão sério e lastimável problema. Torna-se importante compreender, de modo crítico, o superendividamento e, neste livro, constam observações sobre o seu conceito, as suas características, espécies e causas. Os novos princípios, direitos básicos, práticas e cláusulas abusivas, inseridos no microssistema consumerista pela novel legislação, também são objeto de análise. O diferencial desta obra pode ser constatado sob quatro fundamen...
Autonomy in the Law
By juxtaposing European and American concepts of autonomy in the law as they are applied to families, capital punishment and criminal trials, authors reveal the common values that justify all legal systems. This book sheds new light on the fundamental purpose of law by examining how European and American lawyers, judges, and citizens actually apply and should apply legal autonomy to litigation, legislation, and the law itself.

O Consumidor Perante o Mercado
As viagens internacionais se tornaram mais acessíveis com o passar dos anos e o número de passageiros internacionais cresceu consideravelmente, bem como os índices de consumo no exterior. A cada país que visitam, os turistas deparam-se com uma relevante variação normativa, criando-lhes dúvidas, receios e, por vezes, problemas no momento da reparação de um direito que lhe tenha sido violado. O presente trabalho busca expor, de forma didática, as principais soluções que vêm sendo adotadas, ou mesmo debatidas internacionalmente, a respeito da tutela dos consumidores, quando em países estrangeiros.
Human Rights and the Care of Older People
Set against the rapid aging of the world's population, Human Rights and the Care of Older People explores the potential for the rule against torture and ill-treatment in international human rights law to better protect older people from care-related mistreatment. The book's analysis is broadly relevant but is prompted by the widespread reports of older people's suffering due to lack of access to care and coercion in respect of care needs. This includes the deprivation of liberty for 'care'. While recognizing that a new United Nations Convention on the rights of older people is on the horizon, the book argues that there is a pressing need for older people and all human rights actors to use an...
Sustainable Consumption
This book provides a broad understanding of whether law plays a role in influencing patterns of sustainable consumption and, if so, how. Bringing together legal scholars from the Global South and the Global North, it examines these questions in the context of national, transnational and international law, within single and plural legal systems, and across a range of sector-specific issue areas. The chapters identify how traditional legal disciplines (e.g. constitutional law, consumer law, public procurement, international public law), sector-related regulation (e.g. energy, water, waste), and legal rules in specific areas (e.g. eco-labelling and packing) engage with the concept of sustainabl...
