Naturally it also has considerable importance for accident victims. Yet it has received relatively little scholarly attention, at least from a comparative perspective. The aim of this study is to examine national approaches to the award of damages under the head of loss of housekeeping capacity, and to compare the levels of damages so awarded. The research will therefore address both the concepts employed in different national systems and, by means of practical case studies, the compensation actually paid in individual cases. The results of the research comprise ten country reports (Austria, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain and Switzerland) based on a Questionnaire (Part I: General Part and Doctrine, Part II: Concrete Assessment Examples) and a concluding Comparative Report. This project, "Loss of Housekeeping Capacity", was undertaken at the request of the Swiss Insurance Association.Tort and Insurance LawPersonal injuriesEuropeDamagesEuropeHome economicsEuropeComparative Law.Compensation.Personal injuriesDamagesHome economics346.403Karner Ernst1558669Oliphant Ken596141Askeland Bjarte1194707MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910788691603321Loss of housekeeping capacity3823247UNINA
