The New Regulatory Framework for Consumer Dispute Resolution, 1st Edition, is an anthology edited by Pablo Cortés examining the impact of European Union legislation on consumer redress. The volume focuses on reforms introduced by the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Directive and the Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) Regulation.
Contributions examine the European regulatory structure alongside core redress mechanisms, including mediation, arbitration, and ombudsman programs. The collection also assesses national transposition across nine EU Member States and compares these developments to the approach adopted in the United States.
The volume evaluates emerging trends such as dispute system design, cross-border dispute hurdles, and collective redress, concluding with a call for mandatory trader participation in consumer dispute resolution.
