Civil Liability in Europe for Terrorism-Related Risk (Cambridge Studies in International and Comparative Law, Series Number 123)

Today terrorism has become a world-wide phenomenon which does not stop at the European borders. Following the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre and terrorist attacks in Paris, Madrid and London, concerns have arisen in Europe about potential liability exposure for terrorism-related damage. This book tackles the problem of civil liability for damage caused by terrorist acts from several angles. The authors expertly deliver a comprehensive analysis of terrorism-related risk under international and EU law, and the national tort law systems of seven representative EU Member States. They also provide a comparison of the situation in Europe to the liability environment in the United States. Risk mitigation strategies are considered and critically assessed, as are alternative systems for redressing terrorism-related risks. The book concludes with a reflection on the analysis and presents possible strategies for future regulation by the European lawmakers.

This book analyses the drivers of specific common pool resource problems, particularly in fisheries and forestry, examining the way in which private and public regulation have intervened to fight the common pool resource problem by contributing to the establishment and maintenance of property rights. It focuses on the various forms of regulation that have been put in place to protect fisheries and forestry over the past decades – both from a theoretical as well as from a policy perspective – comparing the concrete interaction of legal and policy instruments in eight separate jurisdictions.

This festschrift - written to honor Anthony Ogus, a remarkable figure in the law and economics scene in Europe - contains contributions on issues of regulation and the enforcement of regulation. The contributions provide some thought-provoking ideas which may stimulate the further development of law and economics. Part I deals with regulation and contracts while Part II contains contributions on legal procedure and the regulation of the professions. Part III looks at issues of corporate law and consumer regulations and contains contributions focusing on behavioral law and economics. Part IV discusses the issues of tort and insurance, and the contributions in the Part V examine enforcement issues. Essays in the Law and Economics of Regulation is for all lawyers interested in the question of how various legal instruments - regulatory, but also private law - could be used to reach particular policy goals. This interesting and stimulating volume is also for those interested in enforcement issues.

To what extent can differences in economic development among countries be explained by differing law and institutions. This volume takes stock of this debate and offers an integrated approach that not only takes into account the insights of economics, but also of comparative law and empirics.
