Download or read book Europeanisation of Product Liability in the Asia Pacific Region written by Luke R. Nottage and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article draws on survey results to provide a preliminary empirical benchmark of the impact in the Asia-Pacific Region of strict-liability product liability law reforms, implemented in many jurisdictions since the 1990s based often on the 1985 European Commission Directive. It identifies considerable convergence in the "law in action" as well as the "law in books," largely mirroring results from the baseline survey of European jurisdictions completed in 2002 by Lovells for the Commission. Similar effects include small but significant increases in claims, settlements, and reactions from firms. However, these tendencies are also affected by broader (arguably inter-related) factors such as shifts in consumer consciousness and media attention. Conventional causes of action also continue to be invoked, and there is not much call for further reform. This situation highlights the distinctiveness of high levels of product liability litigation in the United States. Growing but limited case law in certain Asia-Pacific and European jurisdictions should be synthesized into "Strict Liability Product Liability Principles." It also is likely that the Asia-Pacific will continue to follow more the European Union in related areas such as consumer access to justice and product safety regulation.

Download or read book European Product Liability written by Piotr Machnikowski and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty years after the entry into force of the Directive on liability for defective products (Council Directive 85/374/EEC), and in the light of the threat to user safety posed by consumer goods that make use of new technologies, it is essential to assess and determine whether the Directive remains an adequate legal response to the phenomenon of products brought to market that fail to ensure appropriate levels of safety for their users. This book is the result of an extensive international research project funded by the Polish National Science Centre. Individual country reports analyze the implementation of the Directive in the domestic law of several EU and EEA Member States (namely Austria, Czech Republic, Denmark, England, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, and Switzerland) and the relationship of the implemented rules with the already existing rules of tort law. The country reports show that the practical significance of product liability differs widely in the various Member States. Also taking into account non-EU countries (Canada, Israel, South Africa and the USA), this book examines whether EU law will ensure sufficient safety for individuals using goods that have been produced using new technologies that are currently under development. This, as well as an economic analysis of product liability, makes the book valuable for academics, practitioners, policy makers, and all those interested in the subject.

Download or read book International Perspectives on Consumers Access to Justice written by Charles E. F. Rickett and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-03-20 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer protection law in the age of globalisation poses new challenges for policy-makers. This book highlights the difficulties of framing regulatory responses to the problem of consumers' access to justice in the new international economy. The growth of international consumer transactions in the wake of technological change and the globalisation of markets suggests that governments can no longer develop consumer protection law in isolation from the international legal arena. Leading scholars consider the broader theme of access to justice from socio-legal, law and economics perspectives. Topics include standard form contracts, the legal challenges posed by mass infections (such as mad-cow disease and CJD), ombudsman schemes, class actions, alternative dispute resolution, consumer bankruptcy, conflict of laws, and cross-border transactions. This book demonstrates that advancing and achieving access to justice for consumers proves to be a challenging, and sometimes elusive, task.
