DESCRIPTION:L'Institut de droit comparé et le Département des études juives
  de 91ºÚÁÏÍø sont heureux de vous inviter à une conférence sur le droit de l
 a responsabilité tel qu'envisagé par le rabbin et philosophe juif Maimonid
 e par les professeurs Yuval Sinai (Netanya) et Benjamin Shmueli (Bar-Ilan)
 .\n\nPrière de confirmer sa présence en écrivant à jeffrey [dot] kennedy [
 at] mail [dot] mcgill [dot] ca pour assurer l'intendance.\n\nRésumé\n\n[En
  anglais seulement] Maimonides (Rabbi Moses Ben Maimon) is perhaps the bes
 t-known and most widely-studied figure in Jewish history from medieval tim
 es until the present day. Much research has been devoted to different aspe
 cts of Maimonides’ work. Despite the abundance of research on Maimonides\,
  very little has been written about Maimonides as a jurist in general\, an
 d about his tort theory in particular.\n\nThis research presents\, for the
  first time\, Maimonides’ complete tort theory in and of itself. This rese
 arch compares Maimonides’ theory with other pre-modern tort theories both 
 in the Jewish world and beyond it\, in Maimonides’ times and prior thereto
 \, and as compared with modern Western theories. The study will present bo
 th the details of the rulings relating to tort\, and will seek to establis
 h a rational\, systematic legal theory – a theory that allows for a full p
 resentation and overview of Maimonides’ comprehensive conception of tort l
 aw\, its objectives\, and its foundations.\n\nWe will mention several surp
 rising points of similarity between certain elements of the theories that 
 were formulated by the cream of the scholars from leading North American u
 niversities and between significant elements of the Maimonidean theory tha
 t was conceived eight hundred years ago in Egypt. Alongside the similarity
  between the theories\, we will highlight significant differences\, some o
 f them deriving from jurisprudential differences\, some from the differenc
 e between religious law and secular-liberal law\, and some from the differ
 ences in the historical\, cultural and socio-economic backgrounds.\n
