Damage as a fundamental element of state responsibility

Abstract

The article entitled “Damage as a fundamental element of state liability” aims to provide the reader with a brief description of the importance of demonstrating the damage caused by the state in order to request compensation as part of its non-contractual liability. For this article, a bibliographic review of some doctrines issued by different authors and jurisprudences outlined by the Supreme Court of Justice was carried out, where we can observe that it is also necessary to demonstrate the causal relationship of this damage resulting from the existence of culpable or negligent conduct by the State.
