Download or read book Tort Law in Uruguay written by Mariana Barúa and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-07-20 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this book provides ready access to how the legal dimension of prevention against harm and loss allocation is treated in Uruguay. This traditional branch of law not only tackles questions which concern every lawyer, whatever his legal expertise, but also concerns each person’s most fundamental rights on a worldwide scale. Following a general introduction that probes the distinction between tort and crime and the relationship between tort and contract, the monograph describes how the concepts of fault and unlawfulness, and of duty of care and negligence, are dealt with in both the legislature and the courts. The book then proceeds to cover specific cases of liability, such as professional liability, liability of public bodies, abuse of rights, injury to reputation and privacy, vicarious liability, liability of parents and teachers, liability for handicapped persons, product liability, environmental liability, and liability connected with road and traffic accidents. Principles of causation, grounds of justification, limitations on recovery, assessment of damages and compensation, and the role of private insurance and social security are all closely considered. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable resource for lawyers in Uruguay. Academics and researchers will also welcome this very useful guide, and will appreciate its value not only as a contribution to comparative law but also as a stimulus to harmonization of the rules on tort.
Download or read book Tratado de Derecho Civil written by Geneviène Viney and published by U. Externado de Colombia. This book was released on 2007-12-07 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta introducción general a la responsabilidad presenta, en primer lugar, la evolución del derecho de la responsabilidad civil y sus orientaciones actuales, así como los debates relativos a sus funciones, a su fundamento, y a su lugar entre los diferentes sistemas de indemnización. En segundo lugar, se tratan las dos grandes distinciones que dominan la materia entre responsabilidad civil y responsabilidad penal, de una parte, y responsabilidad contractual y responsabilidad extracontractual o delictual, de otra, las cuales son estudiadas no sólo desde la perspectiva del derecho positivo sino también desde la crítica y la prospectiva. A propósito de la primera de esas distinciones, se ha enfatizado la importancia creciente del papel de la víctima en el proceso penal, especialmente gracias a la "acción civil" instaurada ante el juez penal, así como en los sistemas de indemnización creados en su beneficio por intermedio de los denominados "fondos de garantía". Respecto de la distinción entre responsabilidad contractual y responsabilidad extracontractual, la obra desarrolla primero un paralelo entre los dos regímenes, seguido por una delimitación de sus fronteras, poniendo en evidencia las imprecisiones de la distinción y en algunos casos su falta de lógica y su inconveniencia

Download or read book Disgorgement of Profits written by Ewoud Hondius and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-08-12 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disgorgement of profits is not exactly a household word in private law. Particularly in civil law jurisdictions – as opposed to those of the common law – the notion is not well known. What does it stand for? It is best illustrated by examples. One of the best known being the British case of Blake v Attorney General, [2001] 1 AC 268. In which a double spy had been imprisoned by the UK government before escaping and settling in the former Soviet Union. While there wrote a book on his experiences, upon which the UK government claimed the proceeds of the book. The House of Lords, as it then was, allowed the claim on the basis of Blake’s breach of his employment contract. Other examples are the infringement of intellectual property rights, where the damages of the owner are limited, but the profits of the wrongdoer immense. In such cases, the question arises whether the infringing party should be disgorged of his profits. This volume aims at establishing the notion of disgorgement of profits as a keyword in the discourse of private law. It does not purport to answer the question whether or not such damages should or should not be awarded. It does however aim to contribute to the discussion, the arguments in favour and against, and the organisation of the various actions.
Download or read book Language Culture Computation Computing for the Humanities Law and Narratives written by Nachum Dershowitz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-12-04 with total page 765 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Festschrift volume is published in Honor of Yaacov Choueka on the occasion of this 75th birthday. The present three-volumes liber amicorum, several years in gestation, honours this outstanding Israeli computer scientist and is dedicated to him and to his scientific endeavours. Yaacov's research has had a major impact not only within the walls of academia, but also in the daily life of lay users of such technology that originated from his research. An especially amazing aspect of the temporal span of his scholarly work is that half a century after his influential research from the early 1960s, a project in which he is currently involved is proving to be a sensation, as will become apparent from what follows. Yaacov Choueka began his research career in the theory of computer science, dealing with basic questions regarding the relation between mathematical logic and automata theory. From formal languages, Yaacov moved to natural languages. He was a founder of natural-language processing in Israel, developing numerous tools for Hebrew. He is best known for his primary role, together with Aviezri Fraenkel, in the development of the Responsa Project, one of the earliest fulltext retrieval systems in the world. More recently, he has headed the Friedberg Genizah Project, which is bringing the treasures of the Cairo Genizah into the Digital Age. This second part of the three-volume set covers a range of topics related to the application of information technology in humanities, law, and narratives. The papers are grouped in topical sections on: humanities computing; narratives and their formal representation; history of ideas: the numerate disciplines; law, computer law, and legal computing.

Download or read book Explaining Tort and Crime written by Matthew Dyson and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing almost 200 years of history, Explaining Tort and Crime explains the development of tort law and criminal law in England compared with other legal systems. Referencing legal systems from around the globe, it uses innovative comparative and historical methods to identify patterns of legal development, to investigate the English law of fault doctrine across tort and crime, and to chart and explain three procedural interfaces: criminal powers to compensate, timing rules to control parallel actions, and convictions as evidence in later civil cases. Matthew Dyson draws on decades of research to offer an analysis of the field, examining patterns of legal development, visible as motifs in the law of many legal systems.
Download or read book Localisation of Damage in Private International Law written by Olivera Boskovic and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-07-14 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Localisation in private international law of torts is a notoriously difficult question. How do you localize financial or moral damage? What about latent damage? Should damage in the context of cyber-torts be localized differently? The great variety of tortious actions gives rise to endless difficulties ranging from banal situations involving material damage to climate change. Trying to find suitable solutions requires answering many difficult questions, such as the very definition of damage within the meaning of private international law rules, the influence of various considerations such as foreseeability, protection of the claimant, and the remedy sought. The contributions in this volume address these questions and more from the perspectives of 17 different countries, from Austria to Venezuela.
