The Draft Bill on Civil Liability Law is based on current debates in Europe about liability laws. It looks at legal discussions in the EU and Member States, drawing on a lot of academic research. The laws of the 1800s in France and Germany are used as a starting point, but newer laws in Japan, Russia, Brazil, and China have also influenced modern liability laws. These changes show that liability laws need to evolve to fit the needs of the 21st century.
