Inhaltsangabe

This thoroughly updated second edition provides a clear and structured introduction to the subject of tort law with a global outlook. It lays out an accessible overview of the key concepts and doctrines, illustrated with case law and provisions from around the world, and uses a comparative approach to explore three key jurisdictions: England, France and Germany. Including the latest developments in the field, this is the ideal textbook to aid readers’ comparative understanding of the topic by clarifying corresponding concepts and terminology.

Key Features:

• Explains new doctrinal works and case law
• Considers tort law families across the world, alongside customary and regional law
• Explores emerging rules, such as the revised Product Liability Directive and expands definitions, such as that of defamation
• Revises concepts including private nuisance and assumption of responsibility within negligence and highlights concepts that are often overlooked

This book is a valuable foundational text for those teaching, researching or being introduced to comparative tort law and international litigation.
