Abstract
The article discusses the theories of tort law put forward by Professors, John Goldberg, Benjamin Zipursky, and Catherine Sharkey. It argues that tort law operates on two levels: the private side focused on wrongs and redress, and the public side concerned with preventing harms and regulatory needs of society. It further emphasize that both aspects are crucial to understand tort law fully.
