Download or read book Quebec written by Daniel Jutras and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author summarizes Quebec's “liberal” regime of tort under the Civil Code of Quebec, which rests on a unitary general clause of liability, with a focus on how pure economic losses are addressed. As the clause is open-ended, there is no a priori obstacle to the compensation of pure economic loss in Quebec. The author provides nine case studies to illustrate how Quebec might approach the various issues of pure economic loss in extracontractual liability. The author concludes that losses are often treated as compensable in principle, and the scope of liability is controlled through an examination of the causal link between the fault and the injury.

Download or read book Law Death and Robots written by Keri Grieman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-10-17 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can the law keep up with AI? This book examines liability and regulation for artificial intelligence causing serious physical harm, both now and in the future. While AI moves quickly, regulation follows more slowly – an increasing problem for an evolutionary, fast-paced emerging technology. AI has the potential to save lives, but in doing so will have the potential to take them as well. How do we future-proof law and regulation to incentivise life-saving innovation as safely as possible? This book details how to regulate AI in high-risk civil applications (for example, automated vehicles and medicine), addressing both liability and regulatory structure. It highlights crucial liability themes for technology governance; provides tools to bridge the gap between regulators and technologists; examines jurisdictional approaches to AI regulation in the EU, UK, USA, and Singapore; and ultimately suggests a jurisdiction-agnostic blueprint for regulation.

Download or read book Places of Refuge for Ships in Distress written by Anthony Morrison and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2012-06-07 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of places of refuge for ships in distress is a pressing issue in maritime circles. Places of Refuge for Ships in Distress by Anthony Morrison examines the problem in the context of international and national law and analyses the remedies that have been suggested for resolving this troubling issue. The book examines places of refuge under international law, the laws of four major maritime States and the European Union. Places of Refuge for Ships in Distress analyses two proposed solutions – voluntary guidelines and a new convention. The book asserts that additional solutions are needed and examines potential alternatives. Places of Refuge for Ships in Distress is particularly useful, not only as an assessment of the specific problem, but also the wider examination of international maritime and environmental law that underpins any solution. It will serve as an essential resource to individuals involved in international, maritime and environmental law and those concerned with the threat to the environment posed by the carriage of dangerous goods by sea.

Download or read book Divergences in Private Law written by Andrew Robertson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of doctrinal and methodological divergence in the common law of obligations. It explores particular departures from the common law mainstream and the causes and effects of those departures. Some divergences can be justified on the basis of a need to adapt the common law of contract, torts, equity and restitution to local circumstances, or to bring them into conformity with local values. More commonly, however, doctrinal or methodological divergence simply reflects different approaches to common problems, or different views as to what justice or policy requires in particular circumstances. In some instances divergent methodologies lead to substantially the same results, while in others particular causes of action, defences, immunities or remedies recognised in one jurisdiction but not another undoubtedly produce different outcomes. Such cases raise interesting questions as to whether ultimate appellate courts should be slow to abandon principles that remain well accepted throughout the common law world, or cautious about taking a uniquely divergent path. The chapters in this book were originally presented at the Seventh Biennial Conference on the Law of Obligations held in Hong Kong in July 2014. A separate collection, entitled The Common Law of Obligations: Divergence and Unity (ISBN: 9781782256564), is also being published.
Download or read book Reasonableness and Responsibility A Theory of Contract Law written by Martín Hevia and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-12 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If, as John Rawls famously suggests, justice is the first virtue of social institutions, how are we to understand the institution of contract law? This book proposes a Rawlsian theory of contract law. It argues that justice requires that we understand contract rules in terms of the idea of reasonable, terms of interaction – that is, terms that would be accepted by reasonable persons moved by a desire for a social world in which they, as free and equal, can cooperate with others on terms they accept. On that basis, the book explains the main doctrines of contract law, including those governing third parties, in both the Common Law and the Civil Law.
