COMPARED RESOURSES RELATIVE TO THE DETERMINATION OF A CAUSAL LINK. AN ANALYSIS FOCUSED ON EVENTS RELATED TO HEALTH RESPONSABILY
The scientific certainty linked to technological development impacts on victims in this xxi century, particularly, in the accreditation of the causal link, which is always necessary to justify a tort action. Sensitive trials, many of them related to public health, largely shows the problem we intend to study. Comparative law has exposed this difficulty, arriving at solutions that show an interest into make flexible rules of evidence in favor of the proposed causality. We’ve found in our research the recourse to the solidarity responsibility, and to a lesser extent the proportionate responsibility, as well as the evidential presumptions by way of diverse mechanisms of causal inference. These solutions represent responses of legal adaptation which have been observed in order to provide guarantees to the damaged that, in a scientific doom scenario, has been affected twice: whether about their apparent damage, whether about the causal uncertainty that threatens her compensation.
