| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Two main subjects in the fields of the consumer contract law are discussed. First, how is consumer as a tenancy protected, when he/she is forced to pay the renewal fee according to the contract term, which is written in the tenant contract. The Supreme Court said the contract term is not void. But the Supreme Court Ruling is hard to justified, when one looked at the theoretical developments in German and European Unfair Terms Control und consumer protections. Second issue is the interrelations of the civil law protection of private investors and that of consumers. In Japan, the possibilities are explored, not only the duty to inform, but also the duty of suitability are to be introduced in the Consumer Contract Act of 2001, which is a special private Act for all consumer contract. The theoretical foundations of the legal protection in both fields are discussed and discovered traits common.
