Alternative dispute resolution with emphasis on consumer protection
Horn, Kryštof ; Kořánová, Helena (advisor) ; Wintr, Jan (referee)
The thesis describes the concept of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and it's various methods in the theoretical introduction. It describes the new draft law on mediation and the amendment to the Arbitration Code. Then it focuses on the methods of ADR concerning consumer disputes, and finds that not all of them are actually used. For example the ADR Project run by the Ministry of Industry and Trade has never been used much and is currently in decline. Neither the institute of the Financial Arbiter is a key venue for consumer disputes resolution. In the practical part relatively frequent use of the arbitration proceedings is found. The thesis provides practical analysis of several factual contracts, interviews with judges and practitioners as well as other findings from the scientific debate concerning the appropriateness and dangers of arbitration in consumer disputes.
