Francisco Cabrillo

Revista de Historia Económica / Journal of Iberian and Latin American Economic History, 1994, vol. 12, issue 3, 591-609

Abstract: Beginning with Horwitz thesis on industrialization and tort law, this paper studies the law of accidents and the public regulation of industry in xixth century Spain. It shows that both the common law and die continental legal systems helped to develop industry and railroads through the negligence rule and positive public regulation. The paper concludes with a short discussion of rent-seeking and ideology as arguments that can explain these changes in the legal tradition.
