Klauselkontrolle nach spanischem Recht im Vergleich mit der Klauselrichtlinie 93/13/EWG

Philip Trillmich deals with the implementation of the Council Directive on unfair terms in consumer contracts in Spanish law. Against the background of Spanish constitutional law and contract law as well as the history of Spanish law on unfair terms in consumer contracts, he describes in detail the statutory provisions of the Spanish act on standard contractual terms and the statutory provisions on unfair terms in consumer contracts in the Spanish consumer protection act and compares these provisions to the requirements of the Directive. The author focuses on Spanish case law and the consequences of the requirement to interpret Spanish law in conformity with Community law and assesses the extent to which Spanish law complies with the requirements of the Directive.
