Interference with an intention when concluding a contract is a classic problem in contract law, a problem which also arises in current consumer law. Sandra Hotz studies the significance of this fact for the remedying of errors. She begins by showing the development of error remedies in Germany, Japan and Switzerland. In the discussion concerning suitable consumer protection and in a comparison to the modern laws for dissolving contracts, she shows that the »classic error doctrine« contains many elements which could be used to protect the self-determination of the consumer. Conversely, modern reporting requirements on fundamental characteristics of the subject matter of a contract, which protect the consumer, provide information on possible new criteria for the »significance« attached to the mistake in the inducement.
