Konzerndeliktsrecht

Dr. Joshua Blach addresses this question in his treatise on »corporate-tort law«. In addition to the private international law-dimension of CSR-group liability, he addresses the economic consequences of various liability scenarios. Considering specific areas of tort law – antitrust, data protection, unfair competition, intellectual property, prospectus and product liability law – and environmental liability law – e.g., soil protection, nuclear liability and environmental damage law – the responsibility of parent companies under current tort law and the German “Act on Corporate Due Diligence Obligations in Supply Chains” are reviewed.
