概要 Title of book:
Contents of Contracts and Unfair Terms (Studies in the Contract Laws of Asia),ed. Mindy Chen-Wishart and Stefan Vogenauer
Title of chapter:
The Regulation of Unfair Terms and Consumer Protection in Japan (pp.186-206)
Abstract:
This chapter examines how Japanese contract law deals with extremely one-sided, onerous, or otherwise unfair terms, such as exclusions or limitations of liability, penalty clauses, or restraint of trade clauses. It discusses the overt judicial control of such terms under specific legislation, sometimes targeted exclusively at standard terms or consumer contracts. It also analyses how the Japanese courts have exercised a more indirect control by employing traditional general contract law doctrines, such as public policy, good faith, interpretation, or the rules on procedural fairness, in order to protect parties against the imposition of unfair terms.
