SPECIFIC FEATURES OF THE LIABILITY FOR CONTRAVENTION IN ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

Journal Title: Challenges of the Knowledge Society - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 0

Abstract

Along with civil liability and criminal liability, contravention liability comes to complete the classical forms of liability applicable in the environmental protection field. This form of liability, unlike the civil liability, which has a predominantly repairer character, has a sanction character, intervening in the case in which a subject of law does not comply with a conduct established by a rule of public law. Although contravention liability is not a specific liability of environmental law, it has an important economic role and constitutes a serious means of prevention, contraventions sanctions being the most often applied in cases of non-compliance of environmental rules.
