However, the nature of the data raises privacy concerns as the documents include personal and, often, sensitive data such as health, financial, religious be...

The rapid dynamics of COVID-19 calls for quick and effective tracking of virus transmission chains and early detection of outbreaks, especially in the “phase 2” of the pandemic, when lockdown and other restriction measures are progressively withdrawn, in order to avoid or minimize contagion resurgence.

Lo speciale raccoglie i risultati delle ricerche condotte nell'ambito dell'Osservatorio sul Danno alla persona.

In the EU, the race to find Covid-19 treatment solutions has been going hand in hand with the acceleration of authorisation procedures for medicines and medical devices, and regulatory actions to monitor promising off-label and compassionate uses. This arguably contributes to the ongoing blurring of the borderlines between research and clinical pra...

Nella gestione dell'emergenza Covid-19 il tema delle app di traccia-mento-strumenti di analisi degli spostamenti e allerta in caso di contat-to con soggetti infettati-ha avuto particolare riscontro nel dibattito pubblico e, ad oggi, anche a seguito dell'approvazione del decreto legge n. 28 del 2020, rappresenta un ambito ricco di spunti ma anche cr...

Prescription is a major legal defence that bars civil actions on the claim after the expiry of a certain period of time. Despite its far-reaching practical effects on litigation and on society at large, and the fact that it is the subject matter of pervasive legal reforms in many countries, the law of prescription (limitation of actions) is rarely...

The Borderlines of Tort Law - edited by Miquel Martin-Casals August 2019

The Author illustrates the EU Reg. 679/2016 on data protection for statistical and research purposes, dealing with the complex framework of legal bases. In particular, the paper underlines the issues emerging from the Italian law and the soft law measures adopted as a consequence of the new EU Regulation.

It reflects, from the Italian legal system, the following: is the equivalence in money the only way to restore the damage?, is the rule regulated by Article 2058 of the CC is a general repair?, the preventive and punitive function of Civil liability is evidenced when the person responsible is condemned or not to pay compensation? Does the duty to m...

2018 witnessed several key developments which have shaped the digital single market. Whereas some issues are now in the final stages of the legislative process, other key topics are in their infancy and therefore require in-depth discussion as to how EU law should react to the challenges and needs of the digital economy. This volume focuses on an i...

In attesa di interventi regolatori più incisivi a livello europeo e nazionale, il presente lavoro analizza il ruolo che, nell'ordiname...

La responsabilidad civil en Europa ha pasado por un proceso de permanente transformación. En este proceso han surgido nuevos supuestos de responsabi-lidad civil que tienen lugar sea en virtud a la labor creativa de los jueces así como también por la intervención del legislador.

This paper introduces a special essay on some issues arising from the new Italian statute n. 219/2017.

Health data are the most special of the 'special categories' of data under Art. 9 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The same Art. 9 GDPR prohibits, with broad exceptions, the processing of 'data concerning health'. Our thesis is that, through data mining technologies, health data have progressively undergone a process of distancing...

Cambridge Core - Tort Law - The Liability of Public Authorities in Comparative Perspective - by Ken Oliphant

This article offers a new perspective on the boundaries between health and non-health data in the age of ‘Quantified-Self’ apps: the ‘data-sensitiveness-by-computational-distance’ approach-or, more simply, the ‘sensitive-by-distance’ approach. This approach takes into account two variables: the intrinsic sensitiveness (a static variable) of persona...

Algorithms are regularly used for mining data, offering unexplored patterns and deep non-causal analyses in what we term the “classifying society”. In the classifying society individuals are no longer targetable as individuals but are instead selectively addressed for the way in which some clusters of data that they (one or more of their devices) s...

In the essay the research group focuses its attention on identifying the main problematic areas in the four wards which have been involved in the project, taking into account mainly professionals’ risk perception. The objective is to verify whether there is a difference between risk perception and risk assessment and to prepare training programs us...

In the last decades there has been increasing attention given to non-pecuniary component of damages. In a rich society it is possible to grant more legal rights, because there are more resources to dedicate to their protection. If the theory that the richer the society the wider the scope of compensation for non-pecuniary losses has some truth in i...

This paper illustrates a shift from full to personalized compensation in non-pecuniary damage. It moves from the multiform language used to describe these losses in various legal systems to analyse how the awarding criteria they use can serve the principle of making the victim whole as well as reshape this principle. As a final outcome, the paper c...

Compensation for personal damage, defined as any pecuniary or non-pecuniary loss causally related to a personal injury under civil-tort law, is strictly based on the local jurisdiction and therefore varies significantly across the world. This manuscript presents the first “International Guidelines on Medico-Legal Methods of Ascertainment and Criter...

This chapter gives an transnational overview on the different judicial and legislative models adopted for personal injury and damage compensation. An alleged constant increase in awards and the difficulties linked to the subjectivity of the assessment and quantification of nonmaterial damages raise the need for a more harmonized model capable of pr...

The article analyses the judicial evolution of medical malpractice liability in case law and legislation, tracking down the elements of an innovative model of no - blame and contrast it with the proposed legislative reform in the Parliament critically stressing its strenghts and weaknesses.

Il caso « Avastin-Lucentis », deciso dall’Autorità Antitrust italiana ma tuttora sub iudice dinanzi al TAR del Lazio, ha sconvolto alcuni delicati equilibri nel settore farmaceutico nazionale, inducendo un sofferto intervento legislativo (come dimostrano le modifiche apportate in sede di conversione del decreto legge n. 36/2014). Il timore è che l’...

The fragmented nature of judicial and legislative interventions on health care proriders liability makes it both unavoidable and possible a bolistic approach able to turn a serious systemic problem in a systemic opportunity to protect all involved players in damages arising in health care delivery. The institutional players able to unify the fragme...

“All-or-nothing” rule is still the most used system to allocate damages in tort law. According to this principle, a judge must establish the minimum threshold beyond which causation is established and below which, on the contrary, a right to compensation may not exist. The article argues that proportional liability is a suitable option to substitut...

In modern societies, the delivery of services, not only in the healthcare domain, is increasingly characterized by both the exponential growth of knowledge and the role of technology. At the same time, their increasingly more complex organizational requirements and the scientific advances of cognitive sciences call for a modernization of education...

The aim of this paper is to show the benefits and viability for the US of experimenting in awarding methods for non-pecuniary losses in light of European experiences. A comparison of innovative methods illustrates that the use of "European style" guidelines would help the review process while safeguarding the jury's independence and enabling the co...

In Italy, the most frequent causes of damage to those under the age of majority arise out of the special characteristics and limitations which are a feature of youth, and can therefore be partially distinguished from those applicable to people in general. Broadly speaking, we can identify six areas of interest.

Techniques for awarding personal injury damages assume an increasing interest in times of frequent mobility of individuals. Assessing non-economic damages might require more harmonized answers to provide justice and equal treatment across the world. Indeed, in most countries a lasting debate surrounds noneconomic damages for personal injury. Specif...
