Abstract:Strict liability in tort law is thought by some to have a moral counterpart. In this essay I attempt to determine whether there is, in fact, strict liability in the moral domain. I argue that there is, and I critically evaluate several accounts of its normative foundations before suggesting one of my own.

Abstract:
Under modern tort law, the “strict” product liability cause of action does not impose true strict liability (liability without fault). This Article suggests that this counterintuitive development is not the byproduct of a policy choice. Instead, an unresolved doctrinal difficulty is responsible for the modern requirement that a plaintiff prove fault before winning on a “strict” product liability claim. The doctrinal difficulty is this: How can tort law impose liability on faultless product manufacturers while simultaneously preventing plaintiffs with fault from being able to recover under a tr

Abstract:
Alan Brudner recently observed that a significant tendency within contemporary legal scholarship has been “the movement toward comprehending private law in terms of non-legal ‘perspectives’ that reduce to surface rhetoric the discourse by which private law articulates and understands itself”. This is most obviously true of the economic analysis of law, and not simply in so far as it introduces a vocabulary that is unfamiliar to the lawyer. For the perspective which has informed the most influential currents within that movement is fundamentally aggregative in orientation, so that legal doctrin

AbstractOver the past decade more than 1,000 "DES daughters" have filed lawsuits against the manufacturers of DES, alleging that their in utero exposure to the drug caused various reproductive tract abnormalities, including cancer. Plaintiffs now allege that their grandmothers' use of DES during pregnancy caused genetic damage leading to cancer in third generations. This Note addresses the validity of preconception tort liability in the context of third-generation DES cases. Plaintiffs in preconception tort liability cases have sought recovery under both negligence and strict liability causes

Abstract:
Abstract Strict products liability has evolved in a manner that is widely misunderstood. The liability rule was first formulated to govern defective products that did not minimally perform one of their ordinary functions as expected by consumers—a malfunction that violates the implied warranty of quality. After adopting this rule, courts began applying it to products that did not malfunction and found that a test for defect based on consumer expectations often is indeterminate or can otherwise unduly limit liability in an important class of cases. To address these problems, most courts adopted

Abstract:
Little about strict liability has evoked much agreement among commentators except for their opposition to it. Most but not all philosophers of law regard strict liability in the criminal law as unjust. To be sure, the opposition of commentators is highly qualified. Legal philosophers are more tolerant of strict liability in tort law than in criminal law, less vehement when punishments are relatively lenient, and sometimes prepared to allow the exigencies of law enforcement to override considerations of justice. These concessions, however, are made in a general climate of hostility to strict li

Abstract:
Strict liability has gained recognition in Indonesian law, particularly following Indonesia's ratification of several international conventions in the late 1990s. The Indonesian tort law system often contrasts strict liability with fault-based liability. Article 536 of the Commercial Code stipulates that "all collisions are due to his fault," requiring the plaintiff to prove fault in maritime collision cases. This provision aligns with the faultbased liability principle, which places the burden of proof on the claimant. However, this approach differs from environmental law and international co

Abstract:
The fault of the wrongdoer is one of the preconditions for general tort liability. Nowadays, fault-based liability and strict liability are two equally important forms of liability that are not polar opposites but, rather, complement one another. This article focuses on the meaning of the fault of a tortfeasor. It considers the notion of fault in two European model rules (the Draft Common Frame of Reference and the Principles of European Tort Law), in the Estonian Law of Obligations Act, and also makes reference to German, French, English, and Russian tort law.

Abstract:
Before the Greenman decision in 1963, a plaintiff in a products liability case had to rely on the theories of negligence, breach of warranty, or misrepresentation or fraud for recovery. These theories were not specific to products cases and presented plaintiffs with certain formidable “obstacles.” Because of the many issues raised in applying these theories, courts began to search for a more rational theory for determining liability which would move away from judging the conduct of an actor and instead would focus on the product itself.

Abstract:
Both the history of tort law and the recent theoretical literature on the subject suggest that there are two intellectually tenable and more or less equally respectable answers to the question of what should be the general standard of liablity in tort, namely fault and strict liability. Each is generally thought to have represented, at one time or another, the dominant approach of the positive common law. Each has its modern theoretical proponents: a fault-based approach has been argued for on grounds of economic efficiency by Richard Posner, for example, and on grounds of individual moral rig

This thesis adopts a novel approach to resolving the present difficulties experienced by the courts in determining whether to impose strict liability for the wrongdoing of another in tort. It looks beyond the traditional classifications of 'vicarious liability' and 'liability for breach of a non-delegable duty of care' and for the first time seeks to explain all instances of strict liability for the wrongdoing of another in tort in terms of the various relationships in which the courts impose such liability.

This thesis investigates the historical development of the tort of passing-off. Morison said that the term “passing off” indicates the act of offering goods for sale with an accompanying misrepresentation, either by words or by conduct as to the origin of the goods, whereby the purchaser has been misled and business has been diverted from the plaintiff to the defendant.1 It is called a strict liability tort because the plaintiff does not need to show any wrongful intention on the part of the defendant, fraud apparently having been abandoned as an element for proof in the tort of passing-off.Th
