market, consumers, fundamental rights, consumer protection, consumer relationsAbstract
The Article studies the scope and the essence of consumer rights based on the study of international experience and national legislation of the Republic of Armenia. The article presents the principal vulnerabilities of the consumer protection system in the Republic of Armenia. The need for the state to pay more attention to the issues of envisaging effective structures to protect consumers’ rights and legal interests was substantiated.
As a result of the study, it was substantiated that the essence of the fundamental rights of consumers is often reflected incorrectly in the acts aimed at regulating consumer relations; not all the necessary legal conditions are provided for the realization of the fundamental rights of consumers. As a result of the study, the need to envisage legal solutions in line with the developments in the socio-economic life of the country was substantiated, which will best guarantee the protection of consumer rights.
