- W3023721919 abstract "The legislation and Rules creating September 11th Victim Compensation Fund (the Fund) constitute a new entry in jurisprudence of injury. The Fund presents challenges that cut across traditional tort and compensation law, economic philosophy, psychology and political science. This article combines analysis of statute and Rules with suggestions about their political significance, including brief summaries of heated public discussion about Fund and a couple of personalized anecdotes, selected for their symbolic power. Trying to broker politics of injury, Congress in establishing Fund created a unique form of public choice, with something for everyone, in response to a most tragic set of circumstances. It provides victims of attacks and their survivors an option to take advantage of a federal compensation fund or to sue air carriers. The Fund combines features of no-fault compensation systems like workers' compensation and of tort damages law, although departing from traditional American damages law by requiring deduction of collateral sources. It also provides direct subsidies to air carriers whose passengers and planes were lost in attacks, as well as limiting their liability and offering them a potential immunity - a highly specialized immunity that depends on choices made by victims and survivors. By contrast with traditional statutory compensation systems, Fund carves out a narrow wedge of misfortune. Reaching beyond the graphs of microeconomic theory, it appeals to communitarian instinct, responding to continuing horror at events of September 11th, collective compassion for victims, and our increased sense of vulnerability. At same time, Fund has provoked a nationwide community conversation about limits of compassion, sharing of burdens, and even vices of greed and envy." @default.
