The Yearbook on European Tort Law provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in the law of torts within Europe and thereby enables scholars as well as practitioners from different national backgrounds to keep abreast of questions concerning tort law. The Yearbook contains reports on the developments of tort law in the EU Member States (except Luxembourg), Switzerland, Poland and the Czech Republic as well as a report on the developments in the field of EU law. Additionally, with South Africa, one non-European country is included. In conclusion, a comparative overview reviews the essential aspects of all reports. The reports are written by scholars from the respective jurisdictions and, focusing on the year 2001, they include important court decisions, critical remarks on these decisions, a presentation of new legislation and a literature overview. In addition to the national reports, essays on key topics in the field of tort law are included in the Yearbook.
