Research Abstract |
Preemption of state tort cause of action by federal regulation is recognized as part of "tort reform" measures. "Reformers" pursue their agenda by switching more than one law-making forum ; but such strategy may well bring tension among "reform" measures. Academically, the question is formulized as one of institutional choice, and such formulation itself (re-)confirms that the primary concern of American tort law lies in deterrence and the interest in compensation has been decreased.
