'Disruptive innovation', 'the fourth industrial revolution', 'one
of the ten ideas that will change the world'; the
collaborative/sharing economy is shaking existing norms. It poses
unprecedented challenges in terms of both material policies and
governance in almost all aspects of EU law. This book explores the
application - or indeed inadequacy - of existing EU rules in the
context of the collaborative economy. It analyses the novelties
introduced by the collaborative economy and discusses the specific
regulatory needs and instruments employed therein, most notably
self-regulation. Further, it aims to elucidate the legal status of
the parties involved (traders, consumers, prosumers) in these
multi-sided economies, and their respective roles in the provision
of services, especially with regard to liability issues. Moreover,
it delves into a sector-specific examination of the relevant EU
rules, especially on data protection, competition, consumer
protection and labour law, and comments on the uncertainties and
lacunae produced therein. It concludes with the acute question of
whether fresh EU regulation would be necessary to avoid
fragmentation or, on the contrary, if such regulation would create
unnecessary burdens and stifle innovation. Taking a broad
perspective and pragmatic view, the book provides a comprehensive
overview of the collaborative economy in the context of the EU
legal landscape.
