Abstract

Notion plurale, la source des obligations se décompose en source formelle, source technique et source substantielle. Les sources formelles désignent le fondement juridique à partir duquel seront dégagés les sources techniques, fruit de l’interprétation judiciaire. Les sources substantielles ont été définies comme les conditions concrètes de naissance de l’obligation. Nées de l’application des notions techniques réalisées par les magistrats, elles s’articulent autour de la liberté du débiteur et la protection du créancier. L’approche classique a été définie comme la politique qui consacre la liberté du débiteur. Contenue en l’article 1370 du Code civil, elle plonge ses racines dans le passé et s’illustre aujourd’hui à travers de nombreux concepts. À l’opposé, l’approche moderne fait prévaloir la protection du créancier. Consacrée indirectement, elle laisse intact l’ordre technique existant et s’élabore à partir d’applications renouvelées des notions. Consacrée directement, elle donnera naissance à de nouvelles notions dont certaines recevront une traduction formelle. Une nouvelle approche de la liberté est souhaitable. L’acte juridique a été redéfini comme la libre création d’une croyance légitime. Le fait juridique consiste en la création dommageable d’un risque anormal. En chacune de ces sources, l’expression de la liberté est appréciée en la personne du débiteur tandis que le produit de la liberté est évalué en la personne du créancier. Par ailleurs, l’approche libérale fait aussi l’objet d’un dépassement. À la faveur de celui-ci, l’obligation se traduira par une charge individuelle définitive, d’une part, et une charge collective finale, d’autre part.

Abstract

International organizations have become major players on the international scene, whose acts and activities affect individuals, companies and states. Damage to interests or violation of rights sometimes occur (such as during peacekeeping operations, for example). Karel Wellens considers what remedies are available to potential claimants such as private contractors, staff members or, indeed, anyone suffering damage as a result of their actions. Can they turn to an Ombudsman or national courts, or do they have to rely on support by their own state? Are the remedies provided by international organizations adequate? Wellens' conclusions include suggestions for alternative remedial options in the future.

Abstract

The increasing Europeanisation of the law of delict/torts has produced textbooks, casebooks, monographs, and also sets of model rules of a genuinely European character. A major gap still existing today relates to the experiences gathered in the national legal systems over the past decades. The present work attempts to fill this gap for one key element of tort law: the notion of damage. It thus does what the previous volume in the 'Digest of European Tort Law' series did for another key element, ie natural causation. Once again, the publication contains a selection of the most important cases decided in26 states across Europe as well as by the European Court of Justice. For each case the facts and the relevant court decision are presented, and the decision is analysed within the wider context of the development of the respective legal system. In addition, the editors provide comparative analyses of the case law reported in this volume concerning all the specific problems raised under the heading of damage. The publication also looks into how key cases would be resolved under the European model rules drafted in the field of tort law; and it also highlights cases from earlier periods of legal history.The editors believe that the material gathered here may provide guidance for an organic convergence of the national legal systems in Europe. It constitutes the basis of an acquis commun that is infinitely richer (though also much more complex) than the rather bland and abstract concepts contained in national codifications, European legislation, and the modern model rules.

Abstract

Causation is a foundational concept in tort law: in claims for compensation, a claimant must demonstrate that the defendant was a cause of the injury suffered in order for compensation to be awarded. Proof of Causation in Tort Law provides a critical, comparative and theoretical analysis of the general proof rules of causation underlying the tort laws of England, Germany and France, as well as the exceptional departures from these rules which each system has made. Exploring the different approaches to uncertainty over causation in tort law, Sandy Steel defends the justifiability of some of these exceptions, and categorises and examines the kinds of exceptional rules suggested by the case law and literature. Critically engaged with both the theoretical literature and current legal doctrine, this book will be of interest to private law scholars, judges and legal practitioners.
