It provides a comprehensive comparative analysis of cases, exploring principles such as remoteness, legal causation, protective purpose of norms, and reduction clauses. The book includes country-specific reports, historical introductions, and analyses of decisions by European courts and supranational frameworks like the Principles of European Tort Law (PETL) and the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR). It aims to assist judges, scholars, and practitioners in understanding diverse approaches to liability limitations in tort law while identifying similarities and differences across legal traditions. The work is intended for legal professionals, academics, and policymakers interested in European tort law and comparative legal studies.Generated by AI.Liability (Law)EuropeLiability (Law)346.403Winiger Bénédict413322Askeland Bjarte1194707Bargelli Elena321606Hogg Martin1830616Karner Ernst1830617MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911011305303321Essential Cases on the Limits of Liability4468123UNINA
