Beschreibung
For 25 years, tort law enthusiasts from all over Europe and beyond have met in Vienna in early spring every year to discuss the latest and most significant tort-related developments in the framework of the Annual Conference on European Tort Law. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of this Conference, it was decided to supplement the broader overview and analysis provided annually at the Conference and in the associated European Tort Law Yearbook with a book examining the evolution of tort law from a different perspective: the authors selected the five, in their view most important, tort decisions issued between 2001 and 2025 from their jurisdiction. They present these cases and place them in the context of their respective tort law system, amongst others by including information on the starting point for the decision in their jurisdiction, by outlining the decision’s consequences and by explaining why the individual decision qualifies as a landmark decision in their system. The analysis of the landmark decisions is not intended to provide a comprehensive overview of the respective tort law system. Against the background of the substantial number of jurisdictions covered, the exclusive focus on these landmark decisions will, however, allow readers to gain an impression of how, and in which fields, tort law has evolved over these past 25 years. The book covers 30 European jurisdictions, an analysis of CJEU cases and an additional report from Israel. Moreover, an introduction highlights some of the trends discernible in the country reports. Together, the reports aim to create a bird’s eye view of the evolution of tort law in Europe in the first quarter of the 21st century.
