Abstract

Abstract This chapter discusses the theory of strict liability as a way of eliminating tort's reliance on the fault principle. The theory holds that (1) liability and recovery are matters of justice for all and only losses result from the invasion of rights; (2) compensation can never be a matter of justice in the absence of a right; and (3) compensation in torts is always for action contrary to rights.
