The main focus is on how these actions can enhance access to justice and on how to balance the interests of private actors in protecting their rights with the interests of society as a whole. Rather than focusing on collective actions only as a procedural device per se, the contributors to this book also examine how these mechanisms relate to their broader social context. Bringing together a broad range of scholarship from the areas of competition, consumer, environmental, company and securities law, the book includes contributions from Asian, European and North American scholars and therefore expands the scope of the traditional European and/or American debate. 606 $aClass actions (Civil procedure) 606 $aPublic interest law 606 $aDue process of law 606 $aJustice, Administration of 615 0$aClass actions (Civil procedure) 615 0$aPublic interest law. 615 0$aDue process of law. 615 0$aJustice, Administration of. 676 $a347/.053 701 2$aWrbka$b Stefan$f1976-$0789646 702 $aWrbka$b Stefan$f1976- 702 $aVan Uytsel$b Steven$f1974- 702 $aSiems$b Mathias M.$f1974- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462354803321 996 $aCollective actions$92473364 997 $aUNINA
