Thirty years after the entry into force of the Directive on
liability for defective products (Council Directive 85/374/EEC),
and in the light of the threat to user safety posed by consumer
goods that make use of new technologies, it is essential to assess
and determine whether the Directive remains an adequate legal
response to the phenomenon of products brought to market that fail
to ensure appropriate levels of safety for their users.European
Product Liability is the result of an extensive international
research project funded by the Polish National Science Centre. It
brings together experienced scholars associated with the European
Group on Tort Law (EGTL) and the European Research Group on
Existing EC Private Law (Acquis Group). Individual country reports
analyse the implementation of the Directive in the domestic law of
several EU and EEA Member States (namely Austria, Czech Republic,
Denmark, England, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Norway,
Poland, Spain, and Switzerland) and the relationship of the
implemented rules with the already existing rules of tort law. The
country reports show that the practical significance of product
liability differs widely in the various Member States. Also taking
into account non-EU countries (Canada, Israel, South Africa and the
USA), this book examines whether EU law will ensure sufficient
safety for individuals using goods that have been produced using
new technologies that are currently under development, such as
major advances in mechatronics, nanotechnology, regenerative
medicine and contour crafting. Together with an economic analysis
of product liability it makes the book valuable for academics,
practitioners, policy makers and all those interested in the
subject.
