Resumo: The relation between suppliers and consumers inherently carries complex aspects. On one hand, the freedom to offer products and services is encouraged as a natural movement towards economic development; on the other hand, it is necessary to regulate commercial and advertising practices with the aim of protecting consumers from abuses and damages. In this context, the present study aims to answer the problem: Is it possible to have effective consumer protection against bad business practices, including those that are socially accepted, subliminal, and disguised? To find a satisfactory answer to this problem, this study uses exploratory research, an analytical-deductive method, and a bibliographic research technique, based on academic literature, current legislation, and judicial decisions handed down by the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice. By analyzing common commercial practices legally referred to as "dolus bonus", it is concluded that a firm Judiciary is necessary for having an effective consumer protection against bad commercial practices, especially those that are subliminal and disguised since, not rarely, suppliers broadcast clearly illegal advertisements, exploiting the thin line that distinguishes legality from illegality to obtain exaggerated advantages, thus unbalancing consumer relations.

Por um lado, fomenta-se a liberdade de oferta de produtos e serviços como um movimento natural em prol do desenvolvimento econômico; por outro, é necessário regular práticas comerciais e publicitárias com o objetivo de proteger os consumidores evitando abusos e danos. Nesse contexto, o presente estudo tem como objetivo responder à problemática: É possível haver uma proteção efetiva do consumidor em relação às más práticas comerciais, inclusive aquelas socialmente aceitas, subliminares e disfarçadas? Para alcançar resposta satisfatória ao problema, este estudo utiliza pesquisa exploratória, método analítico-dedutivo e técnica de pesquisa bibliográfica, fundada na literatura acadêmica, legislação vigente e em decisões judiciais proferidas pelo Superior Tribunal de Justiça do Brasil. Ao analisar as práticas comerciais corriqueiras - práticas comuns do ofertante - juridicamente denominadas "dolus bonus", conclui-se ser necessária a firma atuação do Poder Judiciário para que haja uma proteção efetiva do consumidor em relação às más práticas comerciais, em especial àquelas subliminares e disfarçadas eis que, não raro, fornecedores veiculam propagandas claramente ilegais valendo-se da tênue linha que distingue legalidade de ilegalidade para obter vantagens exageradas, desequilibrando assim as relações de consumo.Universidade Estadual de Londrina2023-11-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/iuris/article/view/4619910.5433/2178-8189.2023v27n3p119-136Scientia Iuris; v. 27 n. 3 (2023): Scientia Iuris; 119-1362178-81891415-6490reponame:Scientia Iuris (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)instacron:UELporhttps://ojs.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/iuris/article/view/46199/49702Copyright (c) 2023 Scientia Iurishttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.pt_BRinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGibran, Sandro MansurBarros, Helio José Cavalcanti2023-11-28T14:52:41Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/46199Revistahttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/iurisPUBhttps://www.uel.br/revistas/uel/index.php/iuris/oairevistamdireito@uel.br2178-81891415-6490opendoar:2023-11-28T14:52:41Scientia Iuris (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL)false
