Examining the mechanism by which asbestos compensation is delivered in Belgium, England, Italy and the United States, as well as the cultural forces and actors which contribute to its emergence and transformations, the book advances our understanding of how law operates within cultural norms, routines, and institutional relations of capitalist societies. With material gathered from 50 interviews and from primary and secondary sources, the author considers law as a cultural phenomenon, national styles of legal culture and the convergence and divergence of legal cultures, and law as a form of institutionalized power. 606 $aAsbestos$xLaw and legislation 606 $aCompensation (Law) 606 $aProducts liability$xAsbestos 606 $aAsbestosis 606 $aToxic torts 615 0$aAsbestos$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aCompensation (Law) 615 0$aProducts liability$xAsbestos. 615 0$aAsbestosis. 615 0$aToxic torts. 676 $a346.03/8 700 $aBoggio$b Andrea$01514303 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790528403321 996 $aCompensating asbestos victims$93749290 997 $aUNINA
