TI  - The sources and challenges of norm generation in tort law
EP  - 47

N2  - Courts in tort cases set standards of behaviour for society, often using common-sense sounding benchmarks such as ?reasonableness?. To do so, they need to ?know? things, sometimes controversial and difficult things, and are required to address multiple claims to knowledge and to attribute weight to them. Once we move into areas of high technical or scientific complexity, including risk regulation, questions are inevitably raised about the capacity and legitimacy of courts, using these general norms, to set standards.
