Abstract

The failure to abide by the social rules could determine the application of sanctions of various types that could restore the social balance. The legal liability, unlike other forms of social liability, refers to the obligation of being held responsible for violating a legal rule. Starting from the hypothesis that the social rules and values may be violated or omitted in the individuals’ actions, one can assert that the social liability may take several forms, depending on the affected social relationships, namely: moral liability, political liability, legal liability, etc. This study aims at dealing with only several aspects related to the concept of legal liability.
