Abstract

The article presents German and French legal solutions and laws regarding unfair use of contractual advantage. It discusses the way the definitions of market power and its abuse are understood under these jurisdictions. Also, Polish legal solutions are analysed in detail, i.e. critical interpretation of the contractual advantage definition. At the end, the Authors reflect on which German and French solutions could be transferred into the Polish law.
