European and Portuguese standardisation

More about the book

Focusing on the underexplored area of standardization, the text examines its significance in contract law, competition law, and civil liability. It analyzes current objectives, types of standards, and the involved actors, while addressing challenges and the evolution of standardization. In a liberalized economy, the goal is to ensure compatibility among traded products and services. The potential standardization of healthcare services has sparked intense opposition from healthcare professionals, particularly in economically robust European nations.
