The focus is mainly on English law (including the 2005 Unfair Terms in Contracts Bill) and on Italian law, but frequent references are made to the French and the German systems. At the same time, the book has a broader, more 'European' concern, in that it aims to distill from the existing Community acquis and from the history and rationale of Directive 93/13 notions and concepts that could guide its interpretation. It is well known that Community law uses terminology which is peculiar to it, and that legal concepts do not necessarily have the same meaning in EC law and in the law of the various Member States: every provision of Community law must be placed in its context and interpreted in the light of its own objectives and rationale, and of the objectives and rationale of Community law as a whole. In this respect, this book aims to identify the contours and features of the emerging European legal tradition, and to assess the impact that this may have on the domestic traditions 410 0$aModern studies in European law ;$vv. 15. 606 $aSales$zEuropean Union countries 606 $2Contract law 606 $aImmoral contracts$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aStandardized terms of contract$zEuropean Union countries 615 0$aSales 615 0$aImmoral contracts 615 0$aStandardized terms of contract 676 $a346.402 700 $aNebbia$b Paolisa$0569711 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784852803321 996 $aUnfair contract terms in European law$93830630 997 $aUNINA
