Abstract

The aim of the paper is to explore the content of the duty of care, which is the most important element of imputation by way of negligence. For this, the paper argues and defends three main ideas: First, these duties of care are constructed by an objective standard, which contradicts a mere psychological negligence that identifies a mental failure in the agent. Second, the notion of care is always inalienable, hence any dogmatic effort to change it by mere cognoscibility of the wrong is insufficient. And, finally, in order to define what the careful conduct according to context is, it is essential to take into consideration the specific knowledge and capacities of the subject, which denies those theories that focus in the knowledge and capacities of an abstract average man.
