Such a New Approach does not exist for services. Nevertheless, a significant number of European services standards have been made. This book focuses on European standardisation of services and its impact on private law. Two services sectors are analysed: the healthcare sector and the tourism sector. The core chapters of the book contain a number of case studies based on empirical research in these sectors. The first part discusses how European services standards interact with existing legal regulation at the European and national level. It is shown that, at the European level, there is no clear legal framework in which European services standards are adopted. This has an impact on their application in private law, which is the main theme of the second part of the book. Moreover, there is a real risk that European services standards create obstacles to free movement. This will prevent their successful application in private lawModern studies in European law.European standardization of services and its impact on private lawCivil lawEuropean Union countriesInternational unificationInternational and municipal lawEuropean Union countriesService industriesLaw and legislationEuropean Union countriesInternational lawCivil lawInternational unification.International and municipal lawService industriesLaw and legislation343.2407/8Leeuwen Barend van1687893UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910816251903321European standardisation of services and its impact on private law4061713UNINA
