Unravelling Tort and Crime
Matthew Dyson
Tort law and criminal law are closely bound together but their
relationship rarely receives sustained and rigorous scrutiny. This is
the first significant project in England and Wales to address that
shortcoming. Building on growing interest amongst both academics and
practitioners in the relationship between tort and crime, it draws
together leading experts to chart the field and explore key points of
interest. It uses a range of perspectives from legal theory, doctrine,
legal history and comparative law to address some of the most important
and interesting links between tort and crime. Examples include how the
illegality defence operates to avoid stultification of the law, the
difference between criminal and civil causation, how the Motor Insurers'
Bureau not only insures but acts to enforce laws and alter behaviour,
and why civil law only very rarely restores specific property but the
criminal law does it daily.
