SCHIELE, Carolina  y  TOCORNAL, Josefina. ARTICLE 2329 OF THE CHILEAN CIVIL CODE: JURISPRUDENTIAL INTERPRETATION OF PERSONAL CONDUCT. Rev. chil. derecho [online]. 2010, vol.37, n.1, pp. 123-139. ISSN 0718-3437.  doi: 10.4067/S0718-34372010000100006.

Chilean jurisprudence generally understands article 2329 of the Chilean Civil Code as a confirmation of the rule established in article 2314 of the same Code, in which the victim must prove negligence in Torts. However, there is a jurisprudential line which recognizes in this disposition an autonomous source of law based on Professor Alessandri's doctrine which allows the presumptions of negligence and cause-effect relation for personal conducts.
