5 Preface A harmonisation of European law presupposes sound mutual knowledge of the jurisdictions involved in the harmonisation process. However, partly due to language problems it is not always easy to obtain information about all these jurisdictions, especially as far as new developments are concerned. Against this background, the European Centre of Tort and Insurance Law and the Research Unit for European Tort Law decided to publish a Yearbook on European Tort Law containing reports on the most interesting new developments in the field of tort law in different European countries. The fifth Yearbook on European Tort law includes reports on most EU Member States, including the new Member States the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia. Contributions from Switzerland and Norway, an overview of the developments in the field of EC law as well as a report on Bulgarian tort law are also included. Furthermore, the Yearbook includes a comparative overview and several essays on key issues of tort law, five of which focus on questions of public liability. These essays, as well as the most important results of the country reports and the comparative overview, were presented and discussed at the 5th Annual Conference on European Tort Law in Vienna from 20 to 22 April The opening lecture of the Conference on The Impact of the Jury on American Tort Law as well as a contribution on the topic of Harmonizing European Tort Law are also published in the present Yearbook. The 6th Annual Conference on European Tort Law will again take place in Vienna from 12 to 14 April In publishing the Yearbook we pursue the idea of providing a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in the law of torts of many European countries thereby enabling scholars as well as practitioners from different national backgrounds to keep abreast of questions concerning tort law. Furthermore, we hope that the Yearbook will enhance and promote a greater understanding of the respective national legal and judicial systems which is essential for a successful harmonisation of European tort law. At this point, we would like to express our gratitude for the support of this project by the Austrian Ministry of Education, Science and Culture; the Austrian Ministry of Justice; Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer; the Kulturabteilung der Stadt Wien, Wissenschafts- und Forschungsförderung and Munich Re. Without their support this project could never have been realised. Moreover, we would like to thank the staff of the Research Unit for European Tort Law
6 VI Preface and the European Centre of Tort and Insurance Law. Special thanks go to Mag. Lisa Zeiler for making the Conference such a success and Donna Stockenhuber M.A. for once again taking on the delicate and time-consuming task of proof-reading the entire manuscript. Moreover, we would like to thank Simone Sartor for preparing the Index, Mag. Kathrin Karner-Strobach for unifying the style of the footnotes and Dr. Nora Wallner for her help with the final manuscript. Helmut Koziol and Barbara C. Steininger Vienna, September 2006
