De la responsabilidad civil como instrumento de protección ambiental
(Universidad Diego Portales, 2004)
Este trabajo examina la responsabilidad civil como mecanismo de control ambiental (esto es, para la prevención y la reparación del daño ambiental per se) en el
Derecho Comunitario europeo y chileno. Se basa en la doctrina anglosajona y
nacional y en...
This paper examines tort law as a mechanism for environmental control (in order to prevent and compensate environmental damage as such) in both EU and Chilean legal systems. The article is grounded on legal doctrine and statutes pertaining to both Anglo-American and Chilean jurisdictions. The paper intends to analyse the justifications and goals in fault and strict liability. Then it compares civil liability with regulation as means for environmental protection. The paper concludes suggesting which part tort law (due to its private law structure) could play to safeguard the environment in itself....

Juicios de daños y aporte de los tribunales chilenos ante los desafíos ético-ambientales que impone el cambio climático
(Universidad de Chile. Centro Interdisciplinario de Estudios en Bioética, 2023)
Este artículo muestra que la experiencia acumulada por la Corte Suprema chilena en juicios sobre responsabilidad
civil y ambiental, debiera permitirle abordar los problemas ético-ambientales y jurídicos que el calentamiento global implica,
sea...
This article shows that the experience accrued by the Chilean Supreme Court in lawsuits on tort and environmental liability, should allow it to address the ethical-environmental and legal issues that global warming implies, either by preventing harm through the imposition on the major emitters of greenhouse gases, including the State, of the duty to reduce emissions rapidly and significantly, or by demanding and enforcing the obligation to adapt to climate change through the attribution of tort liability or environmental liability....
Esse artigo mostra que a experiência acumulada pela Corte Suprema chilena em julgamentos sobre responsabilidade civil e ambiental, deveria permitir-lhe abordar os problemas ético-ambientais e jurídicos que o aquecimento global implica, seja prevenindo danos mediante a imposição aos principais emissores de gases de efeito estufa, incluindo o Estado, do dever de reduzir acelerada e significativamente as emissões, seja exigindo e fazendo cumprir a obrigação de adaptação à mudança climática mediante a atribuição de responsabilidade extracontratual ou ambiental....

Sobre la responsabilidad civil por cambio climático en Chile
(Universidad de Chile. Centro Interdisciplinario de Estudios en Bioética, 2019)
La comunidad científica coincide en que la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero genera calentamiento global
y éste a su vez produce cambio climático. El cambio climático está y seguirá causando daños graves, incluso catastróficos, a
la salud de las personas y al medioambiente. En este contexto, este artículo argumenta que la responsabilidad civil extracontractual puede contribuir en las tareas de mitigación y adaptación relacionadas con el daño que emana del cambio climático.
Sin embargo, para lograr este objetivo, en futuros juicios indemnizatorios por cambio climático en Chile, los demandantes
deberán proporcionar a los tribunales evidencia que demuestre la existencia de un nexo causal directo y necesario entre las
emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero —producidas por una o más personas naturales o jurídicas— y el daño concretamente
sufrido por la víctima....
The scientific community agrees that the emission of greenhouse gases generates global warming which in turn produces climate change. Climate change is –and will continue– causing serious, even catastrophic harm to the people’s health and the environment. In this context, this article argues that tort liability can make a contribution to the mitigation and adaptation efforts related to the harm arising from climate change. In order to achieve this aim in future tort litigation for climate change in Chile, however, the claimants will have to provide courts with evidence showing the existence of a direct and necessary causal link between the emissions of greenhouse gases –produced by one or more natural persons or legal entities– and the harm actually suffered by the victim....
