Adapting the principle of "a contract is the law of the contracting parties" in light of consumer protection law.

Abstract

Traditional general rules have always been a source of consumer protection because they contain scattered and consistent texts of means and rules to protect the weaker party from what the stronger party may include in terms that burden him and cause disruption to the contractual relationship. These rules came to protect the weaker party in general, whether professional or non-professional, because the professional in most cases has the ability and sufficient knowledge to protect himself from arbitrary terms, even if he is the weaker economically, by avoiding including them in the contracts in which he is a party, while the consumer always falls victim to these terms.
