Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Hardcover, xvi + 339 pages, NOT ex-library. Interior is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Boards show minor indentations to edges. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This legal study, commissioned by the Swiss Insurance Association, examines how various European legal systems compensate victims for the loss of housekeeping capacity following a personal injury. This "head of damage" covers the inability of an injured person to perform domestic tasks - such as cooking, cleaning, or childcare - and is a major component of insurance settlements. The book uses a comparative approach to determine how different nations value "unpaid" domestic work compared to "paid" employment. Country Reports: It provides detailed analyses of ten jurisdictions: Austria, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, and Switzerland. Questionnaire-Based Research: Each report follows a standardised questionnaire that covers legal doctrine (the theoretical basis for claims) and concrete assessment examples. Practical Case Studies: To highlight discrepancies in compensation, the book includes case studies that calculate the actual damages paid out in individual scenarios across different countries. Comparative Synthesis: A concluding report by editors synthesises these findings, comparing concepts like the "hourly rate" for help, the rights of family members to claim, and whether compensation is paid as a lump sum or an annuity. Key Legal Questions Addressed: Monetary Valuation: How should the law calculate the value of domestic chores? Should it be based on the cost of hiring a professional replacement or the "opportunity cost" of the victim's time? Primary vs. Secondary Victims: Does the right to compensation belong only to the injured person, or can their spouse or partner also claim for the extra burden they must now shoulder? Gratuitous Assistance: Should a tortfeasor (the person at fault) pay less if the victim's relatives provide "free" help during recovery.…
