Against the background of current developments in European Community law, Axel Beater deals with significance and the status of consumer protection as a criterion for interpretation and protection in German competition law. He examines the substantive and systematic foundations of German law and compares them with their counterparts in European Community law. Based on this, he questions the term 'consumer', which has different functions in German and in European law and which, seen from a legal standpoint, is extremely complex.
