It is the advent of the fault is to determine the factors responsible is no longer the ultimate basis for liability, which is conducive to protecting the innocent victims and vulnerable groups.
(B) the risk of strict liability
Looking at national tort law, strict liability and risk are inevitably linked. German civil law countries, said strict liability for hazardous duty. Some scholars would risk liability and strict liability common law equivalent. Similarly in France the use of a dangerous activity as the basis of strict liability. [20] but in fact Anglo-American tort law, strict liability apply to animals in addition to causing the infringement, workers compensation, product liability, the most unusual is for harm caused by hazardous activities.

Offenders in their fault liability for damage arising in, the reason is because the liability of the perpetrator can be a moral disapproval of. However, the perpetrator of strict liability without fault, will still be liable, the attribution of the basis for intriguing. The western half of the 20th century's most influential jurists of Pond from the maintenance of social security obligations generally off, demonstrates the rationality of strict liability. He believes that since the late 19th century, the legal interests of the community rather than focus on the protection of personal interests.

Comment on the strict liability
(A) availability: American tort law is rooted in the philosophy of pragmatism in the soil, advocating people-centered, knowledge and human experience claims can not be separated, emphasizing the unity of theory and practice. On this basis, the case law system is the empirical wisdom of judges and logical reasoning with the product. The strict liability from the case law through evolution, widening the scope of its application, this fact itself proves the rule dynamic and practical.
(B) Transcendence: whether scholars have the responsibility of strict liability is equivalent to what different opinions, but no doubt that it goes beyond the French law "presumption of fault liability" and the German law, "dangerous duty," and broke through to abstract known for speculative and logically coherent system of civil law tort theory of barriers to a unified system to a dual responsibility principle or the principle of diversity attributable to system development, and thus the world had a profound influence legislation.
