The Italian legal system provides for the compensation also of non-pecuniarydamages: how can we translate in a sum of money a loss that is not subjected toeconomic evaluation in objective terms? The judge probably does not proceedto the maximization of the utilities involved in the decision: it is difficult todefine the expectations and the preferences and it is equally difficult findinga rule accepted by all, that allows us to choose between alternatives. In somecases the court aims to achieve satisfactory results, but with the limits given bythe heuristics, which leading to decisions not always conformed to a «rational»model. In most cases the judge liquidates the damage following a logic of appropriateness.The judge does not analyze the various options and he does notchoose the best option, but he adapts himself to a rule that he considers sharedand appropriate. This logic of appropriateness, as the experimental data show,seems to be based on the symbols and the language: these elements, realistically,contribute to create the share around the rules for compensation.
