This book charts the transformative shifts in techniques that seek to
deliver collective redress, especially for mass consumer claims in Europe.
It shows how traditional approaches of (class) litigation (old technology)
have been eclipsed by the new technology of regulatory redress techniques
and consumer ombudsmen. It describes a series of these techniques, each
illustrated by leading examples taken from a 2016 pan-EU research project.
It then undertakes a comparative evaluation of each technique against key
criteria, such as effective outcomes, speed, and cost. The book reveals
major transformations in European legal systems, and the overriding need
to view legal systems from fresh viewpoints, and to devise a new
integrated model
