本文共有三个部分。文章的第一部分对美国侵权法上的不法致死(Wrongful Death)损害赔偿制度进行了概述,着重介绍了不法致死损害赔偿制度在美国的立法和司法现状,并对“生命”本身应否赔偿这一问题进行了简要介绍和分析。第二部分着重分析美国不法致死的损害赔偿范围,包括补偿性损害赔偿和惩罚性损害赔偿的内容。补偿性损害赔偿又分为经济损失和非经济损失,部分州还规定对某些不法致死引起的诉讼,可以适用惩罚性损害赔偿。为了不法致死这一新的诉因引起的诉讼有所控制,很多州都对损害赔偿的数额作了限制。第三部分对中国和美国在这一领域的相关制度进行了比较和分析,同时,提出美国了不法致死损害赔偿制度中值得中国借鉴的成分,并就中国的死亡损害赔偿制度的完善提出笔者个人的立法建议。
