Abstract
This Foreword explains the topic of this symposium, the American Law Institute's Reporters' Study on Enterprise Responsibility for Personal Injury, published in 1991. This Study assesses the American tort system a quarter-century after the appearance of the ALI's Restatement (Second) of Torts. The authors of the Foreword discuss the two most striking developments in personal injury law in that time: the adoption of strict products liability and the enactment of no-fault automobile compensation plans. The Foreword addresses the principal focus of the Articles to follow, which are the diverse reforms suggested by the Study, including products liability, medical no-fault, and damages proposals.
