Strict liability means being responsible for harm even if you didn't mean to cause it. In Europe, some countries have specific rules for this, like for mines or animals. Others, like France, have a more general rule that lets judges decide when someone should be held responsible. This general rule covers more situations but can be less clear. In Yugoslavia, there was a flexible rule for strict liability that focused on unusual risks, like dangerous objects or activities. This rule was later adopted by the new countries formed after Yugoslavia broke up.
