Kleine Unternehmen: Schutz und Interessenausgleich im Machtgefüge zwischen Arbeitnehmern, Verbrauchern und Großunternehmen.

根据法律，小企业几乎总是分别被视为雇主或商人，尽管它们并不完全属于雇主-雇员或消费者-商人的二分法。以这种情况为契机，从根本上审视法律对小企业的保护，并在雇员、消费者和大企业之间建立适当的权力关系。在此基础上，制定相关法规的监管建议、论证模式和解释。首先，基础是在一个跨学科的方法，包括法律的各个领域进行讨论。在此背景下，将阐明小企业的经济背景，以便为其需要法律保护给出合理的理由。在历史部分，将探讨小企业的法律保护是如何随着时间的推移而发展的。下一节讨论小企业保护的实施。本节第一部分为总论部分，探讨了立法和管辖中的法律义务和界限。在这方面有三种不同的途径，它们同时要求和约束对小企业的保护：宪法、经济考虑和正义。在一般部分获得的结果，然后应用于选定的法律领域。

Under the law, small businesses are almost always treated as employer or merchant respectively, although they fall not cleanly into the dichotomies of employer - employee or consumer - merchant. This situation is taken as an occasion to fundamentally examine the protection of small business by the law and to create an appropriate balance in the power relation between employees, consumers and large businesses. On this basis, regulatory proposals, argumentation patterns and interpretations of the relevant regulations shall be developed.First the basics are discussed in an interdisciplinary approach embracing the various fields of law. In this context, the economic background of small businesses will be illuminated, in order to give sound reasons for their need for legal protection. In the part devoted to the history it will be explored how the legal protection of small businesses has developed over time. The next section discusses the implementation of the protection of small businesses. The first, general part of this section explores the legal obligations and boundaries in legislation and jurisdiction. Three approaches are distinguished in this respect, which at the same time demand and bound the protection of small businesses: The constitution, economic considerations and justice. The results gained in the general part are then applied to selected areas of law.
