Many scholars believe that notions of fault should and do pervade contract doctrine. Notwithstanding the normative and positive arguments in favor of a fault-based analysis of particular contract doctrines, I argue that contract liability is strict liability at its core. This core regime is based on two key prongs: (1) the promisor is liable to the promisee for breach, and that liability is una...
The essential rationale for imposing the doctrine of strict liability in tort is that such imposition affords the consuming public the maximum protection from dangerous defects in manufactured products by requiring the manufacturer to bear the burden of injuries and losses enhanced by such defects in its products! In Brandenburger v. 2 the Montana Supreme Court adopted the doctrine of strict li...
This paper analyzes the output, abatement, and investment decisions made by a monopolistic polluter under environmental liability law. The model applied considers both integrated and end-of-pipe abatement technologies. We find that in the case of fixed technology, in many instances negligence produces more favorable results than strict liability in terms of social welfare. The reason is that ou...

Liability is also compared to other methods of controlling harmful activities,...

The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act 1980 (CERCLA of US) imposed strict and joint liability to commercial banks and made them first become the main principle of...
If a claimant, C, gives property to the defendant, D, as a result of actual or presumed undue influence over C by another person, X, why is D liable to rescind the gift? A common misconception, given Equity’s ubiquitous concern with conscience, is that D’s liability must be based upon fault and that this will be established if D was aware of the relationship of influence between C and X. 1 Prof...
This paper explores the issue of whether strict liability imposed on polluters has served to reduce uncontrolled releases of toxics into the environment. Strict liability should create additional incentives for firms to handle hazardous substances more carefully, thus reducing the future likelihood of uncontrolled releases of toxics. However, the size of these incentives may vary according to t...
