      Description:This book explains how and why tort law and criminal law developed in England compared with other legal systems, from 1850 to 2020. It uses comparative law and legal history techniques to understand fault concepts, such as intention, recklessness and negligence, and procedures linking tort and crime.
      Tracing almost 200 years of history, Explaining Tort and Crime explains the development of tort law and criminal law in England compared with other legal systems. Referencing legal systems from around the globe, it uses innovative comparative and historical methods to identify patterns of legal development, to investigate the English law of fault doctrine across tort and crime, and to chart and explain three procedural interfaces: criminal powers to compensate, timing rules to control parallel actions, and convictions as evidence in later civil cases. Matthew Dyson draws on decades of research to offer an analysis of the field, examining patterns of legal development, visible as motifs in the law of many legal systems.
