Managing Environmental Risks through Insurance: Legal and Economic Aspects

Managing Environmental Risks through Insurance: Legal and Economic Aspects by Katarzyna Malinowska, Dorota Maśniak
English | PDF (True) | 2024 | 401 Pages | ISBN : 3031476018 | 7.7 MB

This book identifies the role of insurance in a comprehensive system for managing environmental risks at the local, regional and global level. National and international legal instruments regulating environmental protection, especially aspects like pollution, are not precisely reflected in insurance concepts intended to cover environmental risks. As such, there is a need to identify environmental risks and to propose a taxonomy of environmental risks for various types of insurance coverage. The authors refer to the issues of liability in environmental protection, the scope of insurance coverage and comment on specific issues the importance of which has been noticed by the legislator or insurance practice.

The Constitution and its fundamental values – human dignity, freedom and equality – are the ultimate sources of orientation for the rule of law. Domestic rule of law is complemented by its external dimension, the duty to respect international law and, for EU member states, supranational law.

Traveller Vulnerability in the Context of Travel and Tourism Contracts: A Comparison of Brazilian and EU Law

Traveller Vulnerability in the Context of Travel and Tourism Contracts: A Comparison of Brazilian and EU Law by Maria Goretti Sanches Lima
English | EPUB (True) | 2018 | 240 Pages | ISBN : 331998375X | 2.8 MB

The book highlights the link between consumers and travellers, identifying the meaning of vulnerability in Brazil and the EU. It also covers different types of contracts for tourism and travel services, including online booking processes. Only after 2015, as a result of the directive on package travel and linked travel arrangements, did the EU begin viewing travellers as consumers in the sense of Union Consumer Law; conversely, in Brazil, the traveller has no legal status whatsoever and is considered solely a consumer. As the traveller is implicitly a consumer he/she is subject to vulnerability. However, the definition of vulnerability differs considerably between Brazil and the EU: while in Brazil it is a principle stemming from the Consumer Defence Code, covering all consumers, in the EU vulnerability is not an established principle.

However, this shift has raised numerous criticisms and concerns.

English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 514 Pages | ISBN : 9462656061 | 11.7 MB

The volume analyses the development of both forms of responsibility, looking at their origins, and their reception in academia and practical use in jurisprudence.
