derecho de daños y responsabilidad extracontractual Explanation: Your text may indeed be implying that "extra-contractual liability" and "tort" are not exactly the same, since I have seen an explanation that briefly mentioned that tort is a "FORM of extra-contractual liability based on a duty of care." web.linix.ca/pedia/index.php/United_States_tort_law However (and this may be a longshot), it occurs to me that if you are translating a Canadian text this may be a sort of "doublet" seeking to include an English term (tort) and the English translation of a French term (extra-contractual liability), which are (basically)the same concepts. I see the two are counterposed similarly in the same phrase on a Canadian website: possibility that they could be held liable in tort, i.e., extracontractual liability. ... to the assumption of tort liability, i.e., extracontractual liability. ... www.barreau.qc.ca/congres/2001/pdf/02-emblem.pdf And in the Canadian Department of Justice's Bijural Terminology Records the suggested civil law translation of the common law term "liability in tort" is "extracontractual civil liability." http://www.justice.gc.ca/en/ps/bj/harm/responsabilite_delict... In view of the above, I am suggesting you might use two terms that are currently used in Spain to translate "torts" or "tort law", which are explained on the website of the Boletín "Punto y Coma" published by the Spanish translators of the Servicio de Traducción de la Comisión Europea http://europa.eu.int/comm/translation/bulletins/puntoycoma/9... |
