摘要:With the hope that escorts the Act 1480 of 2011 and the strengthening of the consumer protection authorities in Colombia, the right of withdrawal has been presented as a form of unilateral termination of contract without need of a just cause, motivation or any consideration for the interests of entrepreneurs and agents in the market. However, such unilateral power is not compatible with the constitutional foundations of our system. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the overprotection of consumers, has created in Colombia an institution that would be an exception to the general principle that prohibits the abuse of rights. And subsequently, we will argue that there are a number of inherent limits that authorities –and of course, consumers– should take into account when evaluating the exercise of this right of withdrawal.
