Smith et al.: Legal Responsibility for the Acts of Others: A Logical Analysis

Clara Smith, Erica Calardo , Antonino Rotolo , and Giovanni Sartor presented a paper entitled Legal Responsibility for the Acts of Others: A Logical Analysis , at RuleML 2014: International Web Rule Symposium, held 18-20 August 2014 in Prague.

Here is the abstract of the paper:

This paper offers a logical analysis of two cases where legal responsibility may emerge for the acts of others: (a) reflex responsibility, and (b) responsibility in the negotiorum gestio doctrine. The current contribution works within a fresh multi-modal system where the new operators are introduced for denoting intentions and actions in the interest of other agents, and the objectively ideal sets of actions for agents.
