Rozhodčí doložky u spotřebitelských smluv a jejich meze / Arbitration clauses in consumer contracts and their limits

The thesis clarifies some of the issues related to the concluding and use of arbitration clauses. Paying particular attention to the protection of the consumer as the weaker party in the Czech legal system and the European law. It deals with the assessment of the nature of the arbitration clause, whether it is substantive or procedural action. To this end the thesis analyzes the arbitration theories, namely the contractual theory, jurisdictional theory, the hybrid theory and the autonomous theory, and evaluates consequences of these approaches individually especially with regard to the consumer protection. It also deals with the possible assessment of the arbitration clause as an unfair term according to the Council Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair terms in consumer contracts, with regard to the related case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union and the implementation of the Directive into the Czech legal system The thesis also concentrates on arbitration clauses referring to the rules of the private arbitration centres with regard to the turnover of the Czech case law upon this subject. In particular the impact of the turnover on arbitration clauses is assessed with regard to the legitimate expectations of the recipients of legal norms entering them and to potential conflict with good morals.
