Both academics, legislatures, courts and policymakers throughout the whole of Europe have been struggling with the challenges that such ,massification' of private law relationships poses both in and outside of tort law. The subject moves between the law of civil procedure, substantive tort law, access to justice debates and regulatory frameworks for mass disputes. This volume offers both a caleidoscopic review of real-life key cases of mass tort and an in-depth reflection on the broader implications of mass tort in Europe. Thus, the challenges posed by mass torts are explored, mapped and analysed. 410 0$aTort and insurance law ;$vVolume 34. 606 $aClass actions (Civil procedure)$zEurope 606 $aClass actions (Civil procedure)$zEurope$vCases 606 $aTorts$zEurope 606 $aTorts$zEurope$vCases 610 $aTort Law. 615 0$aClass actions (Civil procedure) 615 0$aClass actions (Civil procedure) 615 0$aTorts 615 0$aTorts 676 $a347.053 700 $aBoom$b Willem van$01696429 702 $aWagner$b Gerhard$f1962- 702 $aBoldon$b Jenny 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827013003321 996 $aMass torts in Europe$94076401 997 $aUNINA
