Implications of the Findings 330 8 $aThis book charts the transformative shifts in techniques that seek to deliver collective redress, especially for mass consumer claims in Europe. It shows how traditional approaches of class litigation (old technology) have been eclipsed by the new technology of regulatory redress techniques and consumer ombudsmen. It describes a series of these techniques, each illustrated by leading examples taken from a 2016 pan-EU research project. It then undertakes a comparative evaluation of each technique against key criteria, such as effective outcomes, speed, and cost. The book reveals major transformations in European legal systems, shows the overriding need to view legal systems from fresh viewpoints, and to devise a new integrated model 410 0$aCivil justice systems. 606 $aCitizen suits (Civil procedure) 606 $aCitizen suits (Civil procedure)$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aClass actions (Civil procedure) 606 $aClass actions (Civil procedure)$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aTechnological innovations 606 $2Arbitration, mediation & alternative dispute resolution 615 0$aCitizen suits (Civil procedure) 615 0$aCitizen suits (Civil procedure) 615 0$aClass actions (Civil procedure) 615 0$aClass actions (Civil procedure) 615 0$aTechnological innovations. 676 $a347.4/053 700 $aHodges$b Christopher J.
