520 _aThreats and attacks against a country inevitably have economic consequences, at least temporarily. Tourism is one of the first sectors impacted. The indirect effects are well known: insurers increase premiums and reduce warranties, consumer confidence decreases. . . These harmful effects justify the intervention of public authorities who represent, to a certain extent, the first aid in preserving as far as possible the country’s growth. Nevertheless, this intervention must be limited in terms of duration and area of application, since private stakeholders should take center stage in the process: securing, reassuring, healing, and rebuilding tourist demand. We will take this opportunity to discuss the regulatory function of the rule of law. Is the contract—the legal embodiment of economic exchange—the cradle where consumer confidence may be reborn? Even if it means that the law has to boost, force, or resuscitate this feeling? The aim of this article is to study the legal status of a particular contract—the sales contract for package holidays—to try to demonstrate how French contract law, and in particular French consumer law, takes part in protecting “legalized confidence” to better stimulate confidence in the market.
