文摘

Many industry accidents and product liability problems occur in China in recent years. The safety of products not only influents public daily life, also affects industrial production. Product safety concept reflects the attitude of people to product safety, and is reflected in product liability system. The influences of different product liability system to the status of inherent safety were studied based on the analysis of the doctrine of liability fixation in different technology development period. It can be seen that there were still many problems in the product liability acts such as the standard and identification of product defects, compensation liability, which were not beneficial to improve the industry safety though strict liability has been accepted in our country. Therefore, product liability system should be improved, and the method of design defect determination should be established. At the same time, carrying out the risk evaluation of the products, increasing the amount and scope of compensation are also important to realize the product safety and industrial inherent safety.
