Grundfragen des Schadenersatzrechts aus rechtsvergleichender Sicht

The volume contains the critical responses from the perspective of other legal systems to the propositions Helmut Koziol puts forward in 2012 in his book “Basic Questions of Tort Law from a Germanic Perspective”. These reports not only describe the legal situation in selected legal systems, but also give a critical response to the propositions developed in respect of the Germanic legal family. Moreover, they consider the possible incorporation or rejection of the said propositions into the legal systems. This study is not only intended to promote mutual understanding between the individual legal systems but also to provide a basis for them to gradually grow together by means of both the internal development of the national legal systems and supranational elaboration of bodies of rules.

In diesen Berichten wird nicht nur die Rechtslage in der jeweiligen Rechtsordnung geschildert, sondern es wird kritisch zu den im deutschen Rechtskreis entwickelten Thesen Stellung genommen, aber auch auf deren mögliche Berücksichtigung oder Ablehnung bei der Weiterentwicklung dieser Rechtsordnung eingegangen. Mit dieser Untersuchung soll nicht nur das Verständnis zwischen den einzelnen Rechtsordnungen gefördert, sondern auch eine Grundlage für ein allmähliches Zusammenwachsen durch die innere Fortentwicklung der nationalen Rechtsordnungen aber auch durch überstaatliche Ausarbeitung von Regelungswerken geschaffen werden.

Basic Questions of Tort Law from a Comparative Perspective

The starting point for this project on the »Basic Questions of Tort Law« was the book written by Helmut Koziol, the »Basic Questions of Tort Law from a Germanic Perspective« (Sramek Verlag, 2012), a volume which presented an introduction into the law of torts from a Germanic perspective. Colleagues from seven countries were then invited to give critical responses to the ideas presented in the 2012 volume. The comparative law conclusions then attempt to pick up on the ideas expressed in the legal systems examined and to make them amenable for debate on the further development of the legal systems and their harmonisation. German Version: http://e-book.fwf.ac.at/o:603Ausgangspunkt für das Projekt „Grundfragen des Schadenersatzrechts aus rechtsvergleichender Sicht“ war das von Helmut Koziol verfasste Buch „Grundfragen des Schadenersatzrechts“ (Sramek Verlag, 2010), welches eine Einführung in das Schadenersatzrecht des deutschsprachigen Raums darstellt. Vertreter aus sieben Ländern wurden gebeten, kritische Stellungnahmen zu den in diesem Buch erörterten Ideen abzugeben. Die daraus gewonnenen rechtsvergleichenden Schlussfolgerungen greifen die den behandelten Rechtsordnungen zugrunde liegenden Prinzipien auf und sollen diese damit einer Diskussion über die weitere Entwicklung und Harmonisierung der Rechtsordnungen zugänglich machen.

Esential cases on natural causation

Bibliografija išnašose ; Rodyklė: p. 619-627This volume of the „Digest of European Tort Law" is the first product of a most ambitious research project: a collection of court decisions from almost all European jurisdictions on the most fundamental aspects of tort law. These cases are not only accumulated, but also structured, analysed and commented both from a national as well as a comparative perspective. Historical aspects are also considered, as are future trends, as outlined by current projects on the harmonisation of European tort laws. This complex comparative study shall thereby not only offer guidance for researching cross-border cases, but also allow a discussion of such harmonisation projects on the basis of real-life case settings. This first volume covers one key aspect of tortious liability – natural causation. The conditio sine qua non rule is examined and tested throughout all jurisdictions, in particular with an eye on whether and to what extent courts are willing to deviate from the strict concept of this formulaMykolo Romerio universiteta

Essential cases on damage

Bibliogr. išnašoseThe increasing Europeanisation of the law of delict/torts has produced textbooks, casebooks, monographs, and also sets of model rules of a genuinely European character. A major gap still existing today relates to the experiences gathered in the national legal systems over the past decades. The present work attempts to fill this gap for one key element of tort law: the notion of damage. It thus does what the previous volume in the ‘Digest of European Tort Law’ series did for another key element, ie natural causation. Once again, the publication contains a selection of the most important cases decided in 26 states across Europe as well as by the European Court of Justice. For each case the facts and the relevant court decision are presented, and the decision is analysed within the wider context of the development of the respective legal system. In addition, the editors provide comparative analyses of the case law reported in this volume concerning all the specific problems raised under the heading of damage. The publication also looks into how key cases would be resolved under the European model rules drafted in the field of tort law; and it also highlights cases from earlier periods of legal history. The editors believe that the material gathered here may provide guidance for an organic convergence of the national legal systems in Europe. It constitutes the basis of an acquis commun that is infinitely richer (though also much more complex) than the rather bland and abstract concepts contained in national codifications, European legislation, and the modern model rulesMykolo Romerio universitetasPrivatinės teisės katedraVytauto Didžiojo universiteta

Essential cases on misconduct

Bibliografija išnašoseThe various national European legal systems offer a broad range of responses to the question of what can be regarded as wrongful behaviour or fault. The present work systematically examines these two important prerequisites for tortious liability under the combined heading of ‘misconduct’. Unlike current textbooks, national casebooks and monographs, it builds on the experiences gathered in the national legal systems over the past decades and thereby fills a major gap which still exists today. It thus does what the previous volumes in the ‘Digest of European Tort Law’ series did for other key elements of tort law, namely natural causation and damage. Once again, the publication contains a selection of the most important cases from 28 states across Europe as well as cases handed down by European Union courts; it also highlights cases from earlier periods of legal history. For each case, the facts and the relevant court decision are presented and these are then accompanied by an analytical commentary. In addition, the editors provide comparative analyses of the cases reported and a special report is dedicated to how key decisions would be resolved under model European rules on tort law.
