ANSWER-

The word tort is derived from the Latin word "tortum"which means twisted. Tort represents that conduct which is not ordinary.A tort is a kind of civil wrong committed against another person.

For  Example -A and B are neighbors,if A visits B,s house its the duty of A to ring the bell and right of A whether to let him enter or not by giving permission and vice-versa.

if either of them does not follow this conduct they do wrong against the other.In other words, they commit a tort.

thus the law which governs every civil law is called the law of torts/civil torts.

points include

*it is largely uncodified.

*it awards nominal damages.

*torts are the violation of private rights.

*the tort law is binding.

WHEREAS in CRIMINAL LAW, Crime is the wrongful done to anybody and the state or government has categorized it as a crime that comes under the criminal law.

Criminal law provides a way to punish people who commit a crime and protect citizens from such wrongdoings.It is codified as the rule of law and constitutional law prescribes that crimes need to be specified.  Whereas TORTS are more private in nature crime represents a wrong against society at large.

criminal law is not only of binding nature but the default of it leads to serious consequences.

sometimes Crime can also be torts.

For example, let’s say Krish and Chunky find themselves arguing. Krish punches Chunky angrily and breaks Kris’s nose as a result. Krish is then accused of battery – a criminal charge – because it is illegal to physically assault another person in such a way.

However, Chunky also decides to sue Krish for the medical costs he has accrued due to his broken nose. As soon as Chunky sues for his personal damages, the case also becomes a tort. Krish may have to repay his debts to both society(in the criminal case) and Chris (in the tort case).

To which of the following would Kant and Nozick agree?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Although Robert Nozick did not consider himself to be primarily a political philosopher, he is best known for his contributions to it. Undoubtedly, Nozick’s work in epistemology and metaphysics (especially with respect to free will and the “closest continuer” theory of personal identity) has had a significant impact on those fields. However, it was the publication of his first book, Anarchy, State and Utopia (1974) that revitalized the political right-wing and set off a firestorm of critical replies and commentaries. While Nozick’s accomplishments reach far beyond the confines of political philosophy, it is safe to say that most recognize him for his work on attempting to provide a justification for the state, setting the limits of government, and trying to convince us that accepting his minimal state could foster a framework for a constellation of communities constituting a sort of utopia.

Anarchy, State and Utopia can also be seen as a critical response to John Rawls’ Theory of Justice, which was published just three years earlier and was considered to be the most robust and sophisticated defense of liberal egalitarianism. Although many credit Rawls for single-handedly rekindling interest in political philosophy, this is likely overstated praise. There is little doubt that Nozick’s systematic criticism of Rawls’ theory of justice and establishment of a rival political theory in Anarchy, State and Utopia also played a major role in bring significant attention back to political philosophy.
