Symposium: Remedies for Big Disasters: The BP Gulf Oil Spill and the Quest for Complete Justice, Introduction

This symposium, sponsored by the Remedies Section of the Association of American Law Schools, asks the question of what “complete justice” looks like for remedies and compensation for big disasters like the BP oil spill. The contributors address whether the GCCF fund provides complete justice, and whether it should serve as a precedent for future alternative systems. Their surprising answer on both accounts is no.
