Abstract:
The relevance of the issue of the relationship between the doctrine of tort liability andstrict liability is caused by the decisions of the Supreme Court of Georgia in 2015 on two identicalcriminal cases of tax evasion, whereby the strict liability of the partner was used as the legal basis forcompensation of property damage, instead of tortious liability. This article discusses the principles ofvicarious liability and tortious liability in determining property liability resulting from economic crime.

Abstract:
To speak of responsibility and accountability in human actions is to bring together two disciplines: philosophy and law. The society we live in is based on knowledge, one in which human values have transformed, relativism being an element that outlines certain justifications of the individual for their actions. The same is not the case in law, where everyone is accountable and responsible for their actions. In this paper we will bring to the forefront the tortious liability vs. contractual liability.

Abstract:
Tort liability consists in the obligation of the one who has committed an injury to indemnify the injured party. Tort liability is a legal operation which, according to the Civil Code, when an unlawful act causing damage is committed, the reverse means compensating the injured party. In the case of the environment, the one who harms is not always sanctioned, so in the case of this issue the legislator has developed a rather broad legislative framework. The common law has become applicable in the field of the environment based on the provisions of art. 135 para. (2) lit. e) of the Constitution, which stipulates that , which stipulates that , which stipulates that, the environment is an area that must have a legal protection so that the state maintains a permanent ecological balance. Rehabilitation of the environment is done by applying sanctions to those concerned. So the institution of tort liability is an instrument in the gear of environmental protection.

Abstract:
The advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has become the fundamental catalyst in the research and development of autonomous vehicle (AV). AVs equipped with AI are expected to perform better than humans and forecasted to reduce the number of road accidents. AV will improve humans’ quality of life, such as creating more mobility for the elderly and disabled, increasing productivity, and creating an environmentally friendly system. Despite AV’s promising abilities, reports indicate that AV can go phut, causing road fatalities to the AV user and other road users. The autonomous nature of AV exacerbates the difficulty in determining who is at fault. This article aims to examine the ability of the existing legal framework to identify the person at fault so as to determine the tortious liability in road accidents involving AV. This article demonstrated that the existing legal scheme is insufficient to determine tortious liability in road accidents involving AV. This article explored the possibility of shouldering the liability on the manufacturer, the user, and even on the AV itself. This article also investigated alternative approaches that could be adopted to resolve issues on the distribution of tortious liability in road accidents involving AV. The outcome of this article could contribute to issues relating to the liability of AI.

Abstract:
SummaryRecognition of liability in negligence for personal injury, whether physical or psychiatric, is a question of public policy par excellence. In English tort law, public policy is a transparent judicial requirement in fixing liability even when negligence is established otherwise. In considering the tortious liability of a local authority to children in its care, the English House of Lords has, in obiter dicta, raised doubts as a matter of public policy concerning the enforceability of claims for damages by children against a parent for emotional neglect causing psychiatric injury. In Israel, by contrast, the Supreme Court recently extended tortious liability by enforcing the parental duty of care to children through a claim for psychiatric injury. So far Israeli law is unique in this development. Variations in judicial policy concerning the recognition of claims by children for psychiatric injury are considered here, in the contexts of English tort law, and Israeli, US and European human rights law.

Abstract:
Vicarious liability is an English law principle that is rooted in antiquity. It entails the transfer the liability of a persons’ negligent or tortious action to another person as a result of the relation relationship existing between both parties. Traditionally, vicarious liability has usually been applied in instances where employee/employer relationship exists between the tortfeasor and the third party and when the tortious act occurred ‘in the course of employment’. Through a case law analysis, this paper examined how vicarious liability principle has transitioned beyond its traditional conception over the ages. For instance, the Wilson and Clyde Case infused the non-delegable duties dimension of vicarious liability. The paper adopts the doctrinal methodology through examination of primary sources such as case laws and secondary sources such as opinion of authors and other scholarly works on the topic. Different jurisprudence has been reflected in the interpretation of the vicarious liability principle in different cases. The study submits that the implication of the inconsistencies in the interpretation of the principle is the uncertainty which has been created as to the true state of the law on the subject.

Full text
Abstract:
The circumstances in English tort law in which one person may be held non-vicariously liable for the acts of another have been quietly expanding in recent years, to the point where third party liability can now be said to constitute a distinct category of tortuous liability. As an obviously exceptional form of liability, it is subject to special restrictions designed to strictly limit the specific instances in which it will be recognised. Unfortunately, however, the exact substance and scope of these restrictions are far from clear, for there has been a systematic failure on the part of the courts in deciding third-party liability actions to articulate with any precision the grounds upon which their findings have been based. As a result, the law on third party tort liability has developed on an ad hoc basis and has become confused and incoherent. The specific purpose of this thesis is thus to seek out the foundational principles governing the existing categories of liability in tort for the acts of third parties, with a view to identifying a coherent basis upon which such liability can develop in the future.

Abstract:
In many cases the breach of contract may give rise to delictual liability since the damaging behaviour can be construed as unlawful, especially when an infringement occurs of the other party’s rights in rem or physical injuries are caused to the contract partner as a result of such a breach of the contractual rules. On the other hand, there is no place for delictual liability if the damage results from a breach of a contractual obligation which is part of the consideration. Examples of the relationship and concurrence of delictual (tort) and contractual liability for the breach of contract, legal aspects of interference problem, peculiarities of tort law and contract law, their specific regimes and the areas of possible overlap are analyzed in this work. The issue under consideration is whether a plaintiff who has a contract with the defendant and who can also establish a tort relationship with the defendant may have a choice of remedies in order to gain some advantages with respect to a burden of proof, degree of fault, availability of exceptions, or length of the respective periods of limitation.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis comprises an evaluation of existing and suggested approaches, and promulgation and defence of a preferred approach, to liability for psychiatric injury (or 'nervous shock') resulting from the unintentional conduct of another and occurring independently of any physical injury to the sufferer. Such a claim was first recognised a little over one hundred years ago but since that time the precise limits of liability for psychiatric injury has been an issue that has vexed courts in many jurisdictions. Even today there is no common approach to liability for psychiatric injury in Australia and England. This position is contributed to by the recent divergence in approaches to the determination of the existence of a duty of care in negligence in those countries. The thesis establishes a yardstick which is argued as being reflective of good judicial reasoning, at least as is appropriate to the subject of the enquiry, psychiatric injury. It then lays a foundation for the evaluation by an historical and analytical analysis of liability for psychiatric injury. The historical trace is set in the context of the development of the elements of the cause of action for negligence, including the recent divergence in approaches to duty, while the comparative analysis embraces decisions in Australia, England, Ireland, Scotland, New Zealand, Canada and the United States. In relation to the last mentioned, due to the lack of a federal attribute each state jurisdiction determines its own approach to the equivalent of liability for psychiatric injury, and there is no uniformly accepted response. Against this analysis, the thesis juxtaposes a medical perspective of 'nervous shock'. This perspective facilitates an evaluation of the medical legitimacy of past and current approaches and concepts and informs the promulgation of a preferred approach, including a more refined definition of the damage deemed worthy of compensation. The thesis also analyses the policy factors, or considerations of community welfare external to the interests of the parties to a particular dispute, that have shaped the limits of liability for psychiatric injury, including an assessment of the continued legitimacy of policy factors as measured against the yardstick for good judicial reasoning. It then proceeds to assess against the yardstick the continued legitimacy of individual concepts which have been promoted as being the appropriate limitations of liability. The thesis proceeds to critique the current approaches to duty of care in Australia and England, utilising psychiatric injury as a catalyst and evaluating the approaches against the yardstick. A literature review which critiques alternative approaches that have been suggested then follows. The climax of the thesis is the promulgation of a preferred approach, which draws on the analysis and evaluation throughout the thesis. This preferred approach advocates a more specific definition of the damage deemed worthy of compensation, an accommodation of an overt identification and assessment of relevant policy considerations, an incremental approach to the establishment of duty of care and greater emphasis upon the other elements of the negligence cause of action. This preferred approach is demonstrated as conforming to the yardstick and is accordingly defended as reflective of good judicial reasoning.

Abstract:
This thesis is about the rights and liabilities arising under English and Chinese law in respect of the carriage of dangerous cargo. It is noted that the danger in dangerous cargoes was not necessarily something in the goods themselves, but might well lie in the way they were packaged, looked after or transported. Accordingly, the responsibilities and liabilities of the various parties with regards to the carriage of dangerous cargoes are usually intertwined and complex. The purpose of this thesis is to analyse and evaluate the dangerous cargoes liabilities in English and Chinese law, by providing suggestions for existing problems in each country based on three sources: contract, tort and statute. Moreover, the chain of causation and concept of remoteness has particular importance in order to establish liability and decide which type and what amount of damage is recoverable. This thesis compares both countries’ liability regimes and how to secure compensation for its victims, and the restoration of the environment, with reference to the EU Environmental Liability Directive and relevant international conventions. The author draws her final conclusions from four important issues: (1) the meaning of dangerous cargo, the packing and handling; (2) the scheme of liability; (3) the channelling of liability; and (4) the type of recoverable damage.

Abstract:
Illicit acts committed against local populations during peacekeeping missions may entail the international responsibility/tortious liability of international organisations and their member States. Since military contingents deployed during peacekeeping missions are State organs placed at the disposal of international organisations, it is very difficult to establish which entity is responsible for the wrongful acts and omissions put in place by peacekeepers. To give an answer to this question, it is necessary to understand the rules concerning attribution of conduct of State organs placed at the disposal of an international organisations. Though considerable work has been done in in this regard, the issue is still debated. Moreover, it is not easy to determine which remedies are available to individuals injured by peacekeeping missions, because of lack of practice and information. The objective of the research activity was, on one side, to get more insight into the meaning of 'effective control' (i.e. the criterion suggested by the United Nations International Law Commission within the Draft articles on responsibility of international organisations to solve the issue of attribution of conduct of peacekeepers) in order to identify its constitutive elements; on the other side, the research was aimed at analyzing existing reparation mechanisms, in order to evaluate their efficiency and their compatibility with the so called equivalent protection theory. In reference to attribution, the study allowed to elaborate a notion of 'effective control' which should be able to attribute the conduct of peacekeepers to the entity that under the specific circumstances of the case presents a factual link with them. For what regards the remedies issue, the research allowed to identify the shortcomings affecting existing mechanisms and to formulate some de lege ferenda proposals to improve their efficiency.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis examines to what extent copyright holders can enforce the online reproduction and communication rights against online service providers in Egypt. The objective of the thesis is therefore to highlight that the existing Egyptian copyright law 2002/82 is insufficient to impose liability on internet service providers, both substantively and also with regards to enforcement. Various recommendations are thus made to improve the legislative framework in Egypt, all with a view of achieving that a fair balance is struck for all those parties, who/which are involved in digital communications, particularly online end users, so that their rights to online privacy and access to information are preserved. For this purpose, a comparative methodology has been adopted and recourse is made to US and European laws. This comparative approach is further complemented by a critical examination of existing deficiencies within the legislative liability regime for internet service providers in the US and Europe in order to ensure that foreign laws are not merely transplanted, but that the best and most suitable legislative framework is adopted by the Egyptian legislator.

Abstract:
In the paper Legal Liability from the Point of View of Normativist and Democratic Law Concepts concept of liability is briefly described. Social liability and its kinds are analysed. Legal liability is distinguished like a separate kind from the social liability, featuring a unique obligatory legal definition sign. Its application is assured by the state. Kinds of legal liability analysed: positive and tortious (negative) legal liability. Basis for occurrence of legal liability are described. Dependence of the legal liability upon the legal system of a state is described in the paper. In the non-democratic states, where the laws become a tool for the rulers to give law to the masses, other kinds of social liability, e.g. moral liability, contradict with the legal liability. All kinds of the social liability, except the legal liability, feature no forced measures applicable upon the violator. It is stressed that the non-democratic legal systems fail to accept the positive legal liability. Unsuccessful efforts of the Soviet law theoreticians to introduce the concept of positive legal liability into the law science are mentioned. Tortious legal liability is a sequel and guarantee of the positive liability. Therefore it is the secondary and the positive liability is the primary (main) form of the legal liability. It becomes especially vivid in the democratic society, when its right ceases being repressive and implementation of the positive law is first of all assured by the... [to full text]

Abstract:
This chapter examines the personal liabilities incurred by both principals and agents for the torts they commit. An agent is personally liable for torts committed in the course of the agency that occasion damage to a third party, irrespective of whether the agent was acting within or outside the principal’s authority. The tortious liability of the principal is more varied. A principal is personally liable for torts which the agent has been authorized to commit. In addition, the principal is also vicariously liable for torts committed by the agent in the course of employment. Finally, as in the case of master and servant, when the principal is liable for the tortious acts of the agent, technically principal and agent are joint tortfeasors and enjoy rights of contribution against one another under the Civil Liability (Contribution) Act 1978. The chapter looks at common forms of tortious liability affecting agency.

Abstract:
This chapter distinguishes torts from crimes in terms of the moral costs created by crimes, discusses the nature and incidence of these costs and the problems of assigning liability prices to compensate for them, and describes criminal liability as organized vengeance, a means of inflicting visible, proportioned suffering on offenders as compensation for the moral costs imposed by crimes. The ideas of retribution and deterrence are illustrated in the case of competitive market prices, which also separate efficient from inefficient cost imposition through retribution. Criminal entitlements are defined and distinguished from tortious entitlements, and the differences and connections between tort and criminal liability are explored. In seeking punishment that fits the crime in every case, criminal liability also seeks corrective justice, in this context called proportional punishment, rather than absolute deterrence, and through retributive liability pricing effectively encourages crimes whose value to the perpetrator exceeds the moral costs they impose.

Abstract:
Abstract One of the most important, fruitful, and controversial lines of argument conceived by Patrick Atiyah goes as follows: it is an over-simplification to divide the law of obligations according to whether the obligation in question is imposed by law or voluntarily assumed. ‘A more adequate and more unifying conceptual structure for the law of obligations can be built around the interrelationship between the concepts of reciprocal benefits, acts of reasonable reliance, and voluntary human conduct.,1 In developing this argument Atiyah has concentrated on the law of contract, and he issued a very important disclaimer: I do not, of course, want to suggest that the whole law of obligations can be rewritten in terms of a few simple principles drawn from notions of benefit and reliance. Society and social and economic relationships are too complex in the modern industrial world for over-simplifications of this nature.

This chapter discusses how both principal and agent may incur personal liability for torts they commit, wherein the liabilities of principals for the torts of their agents overlap to a considerable degree with the liability of an employer for the torts of his employee. It addresses questions on what precise circumstances a principal will be held liable for tortious acts of his agent that harm third parties. It also explains how an agent is personally liable for torts he commits in the course of his agency that occasion damage to a third party. The chapter talks about how an employee or agent may not be held personally liable for actions which otherwise might carry tortious liability. It describes the agent’s tortious liability flows from a negligent misstatement.

The liability criteria provided for the tortious liability regime for the state and other public entities are largely aligned with general tort liability rules, notwithstanding some important differences in several requirements. The chief purpose of this chapter is to discuss and evaluate in practice the tortious liability of financial supervisors having regard of the institutional supervisory model adopted in Portugal, which includes the Bank of Portugal (Banco de Portugal, which is simultaneously the central bank and the financial supervisor for the banking sector, for as much as this competence is retained at national level vis-à-vis the Single Supervisory Mechanism, with resolution functions), the Portuguese Insurance and Pension Funds Authority (Autoridade de Seguros e Fundos de Pensões), and the Portuguese Securities Market Commission (Comissão de Mercado de Valores Mobiliários).

Abstract:
In German law, liability for damage due to product defects relies on three concepts: traditional contractual liability, traditional tort liability, and objective liability for damage. The paper discusses tortious liability for damage from product defects according to the provisions of the German Civil Code. Namely, by implementing the provisions of Directive 85/374 / EEC into the German legal order, the provisions of the German Civil Code have not been suppressed, but there is a possibility for the injured party to choose the basis of the claim, based on tortious liability, or objective liability for damage. Contractual liability for product defects plays a small role for injured parties in German law. In order to solve the problems that have arisen as a result of the inadequacy of contractual liability, German courts have decided to improve the position of consumers through tortious liability for damage from defective products. Tort liability for damage has become a convenient mechanism for resolving certain problems that have arisen in relation to this liability. Among others, the answer was given to the question of whether inaction, ie omission, can lead to a tort. More importantly, the circle of persons potentially responsible for the damage was concretized.

Abstract:
The paper presents a continuation of the research on the problem of realization of compensation for damage caused by the commission of criminal offense. In the first paper created within the same project, the author laid the foundations of the problem, dealing with the theoretical notion of damage caused by a criminal offense, the notion of civil torts and tortious liability, and the distinction between the notion of damage and the consequence of a criminal offence. This time, the author will concentrate on settling the receivables for damages by presenting the entire path that one claim for damages should take. Namely, obtaining a property claim should occur primarily in criminal proceedings, but it is most often adjudicated in litigation because in most cases the subject entitled to it is referred to litigation in order to exercise his right to compensation. After the judgement in the civil procedure is rendered, which orders the defendant-convict in the criminal procedure to compensate the caused damage either by compensating the damage in money or by returning the thing, or by annulling a certain legal deal, the concrete execution of the verdict in the executive procedure begins. While studying the manner of collecting the claims of the entitled subject through all three different procedures for the damage caused by the commission of criminal offense, the author also deals with controversial issues that may arise (the issue of statute of limitations for property claim, the issue of subjects who may be holders of property claims, the adequacy of the procedure in which the property claim is exercised, the means of execution of a monetary claim for damages caused by the commission of criminal offense, etc.).
