    Book SynopsisThe Commentary on the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (four volumes) is a major European project that aims to contribute to the development of ever closer conceptual and dogmatic standpoints with regard to the creation of “Europeanised research on Union law”. Following on from the Commentary on the Treaty of the European Union, this book presents detailed explanations, article by article, of all the provisions of the TFEU, discussing the application of Union law in the national legal orders and its interpretation by the Court of Justice of the EU. The authors are academics and practitioners from twenty-eight European states and different legal fields, some from a constitutional law background, others experts in the field of international law and EU law.Reflecting the various approaches to European legal culture, this book promotes a system concept of European Union law toward more unity notwithstanding its rich diversity grounded in national traditions.Table of ContentsPreamble.- Part One Principles.- Title I Categories and Areas of Union Competence.- Title II Provisions Having General Application.- Part Two non-Discrimination and Citizenship of the Union.- Part Three Union Policies and Internal Actions.- Title I The Internal Market.- Title II Free Movement of Goods.- Chapter 1 The Customs Union.- Chapter 2 Customs Cooperation.- Chapter 3 Prohibition of Quantitative Restrictions Between Member States.- Title III Agriculture and Fisheries.- Title IV Free Movement of Persons, Services and Capital.- Chapter 1 Workers.- Chapter 2 Right of Establishment.- Chapter 3 Services.- Chapter 4 Capital and Payments.- Title V Area of Freedom, Security and Justice.- Chapter 1 General Provisions.- Chapter 2 Policies on Border Checks, Asylum and Immigration.- Chapter 3 Judicial Cooperation in Civil Matters.- Chapter 4 Judicial Cooperation in Criminal Matters.- Chapter 5 Police Cooperation.

    Book SynopsisIm November 2009 hat das funfte Bonner Gesprach zum Engergierecht namhafte Vertreter aus Wissenschaft und Praxis zusammengefuhrt, um uber Fragen der europaischen Vorgaben fur den Energiebinnenmarkt zu diskutieren. Die rechtswissenschaftlichen Fragestellungen wurden auch von betriebs- und volkswirtschaftlicher Seite und im Hinblick auf ihre internationalen, vor allem europaischen Konsequenzen beleuchtet - qualifiziertes Hintergrundswissen hinzuzuziehen ist unerlasslich, bedenkt man, wie komplex das gesamte Energierecht durch seine Verwurzelung in den verschiedenen Disziplinen. Die hier versammelten Beitrage befassen sich mit den Herausforderungen der zukunftigen Gestaltung der europaischen Stromversorgung, den regulierungsrechtlichen Fragestellungen des Legislativpakets fur die europaischen Strom- und Gasbinnenmarkte, mit Offshore-Windanlagen aus planungsrechtlicher, aber auch aus wirtschaftlicher Sicht und mit energierechtlichen Entscheidungen der europaischen Gerichte, vor allem des EFTA-Gerichtshofes.

    Book SynopsisBilder- und Nachrichtensuchmaschinen übernehmen fremde Informationen und Werke, oft ohne die Zustimmung der Rechteinhaber einzuholen. Constantin Fahl untersucht die Handlungen der Suchmaschinen-Betreiber umfassend auf ihre urheber-, persönlichkeits- und wettbewerbsrechtliche Zulässigkeit. Erörtert werden auch mögliche gesetzliche Privilegierungen und die Frage, welche Personen im Einzelnen zur Haftung herangezogen werden können. Die praxisnahe Darstellung umfasst die Rechtsdurchsetzung im In- und Ausland und macht konkrete Vorschläge für ein rechtmäßiges Verhalten der Suchmaschinen-Betreiber. Hinsichtlich der Nutzung von Thumbnails setzt sich der Autor mit dem BGH-Urteil vom 29.04.2010 Vorschaubilder auseinander. Ergebnis ist, dass auch nach diesem Urteil wichtige Rechtsfragen ungeklärt bleiben.

    Out of stock

    Book SynopsisIn 2005 the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic granted to the Charles University Law Faculty funds to research developments in Czech law from the last twenty years. Their findings were compiled into a four-volume collection entitled "New Phenomena in Law at the Beginning of the 21st Century". In "Czech Law Between Europeanization and Globalization", editor Michal Tomasek features those selections from the original monograph that are most relevant to an international audience. Translated into English, the texts in this collection are divided into four sections: Historical Impulses for the Development of Law, Theoretical and Constitutional Impulses for the Development of Law, Transformation of Public Law, and Transformation of Private Law. Accompanying each section are extensive bibliographies to help those unfamiliar with the Czech legal system. A major contribution from many of the leading Czech legal scholars, "Czech Law Between Europeanization and Globalization" provides necessary background for all who study comparative, European, and international law.

    Karolinum,Nakladatelstvi Univerzity Karlovy,Czech Republic Czech Law in Historical Contexts

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThe legal system of the present-day Czech Republic cannot be understood without sufficient knowledge of its historical roots and evolution. Kuklik traces the development of Czech law from its origins as a form of Slavic law to its current position, reflecting the influence of both Roman law and the legal systems of neighboring countries. The twentieth century is of particular importance due to the establishment of an independent Czechoslovakia in 1918 and its split in 1993 into the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic. It was a century encompassing periods of democratic as well as totalitarian regimes, and major political, ideological, economic, and social changes, making Czech Law in Historical Context an ideal case study for researchers interested in the transition of democratic legal systems into totalitarian regimes, and vice versa.

    Book SynopsisThis book builds a powerful narrative that constructive dissent, constructive disobedience, and positive defiance are positive tools for the long-term sustenance of an organisation. They are an extension of integrity, moral courage and value-based leadership. Covered in sixteen chapters, the book critically examines the theme in all its dimensions. Interesting case studies on the ‘My Lai Massacre’, General Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in dealing with a reckless US President in 20-21 and the India-China conflict highlight the complexities and the challenges involved. A critical analysis of the Indian bureaucracy compels serious introspection for overhaul. The wars in the last 100 years, mostly of choice and not necessity, meet the definition of ‘Folly’ and the ‘Law of Stupidity’.

  • Caribbean Constitutional Reform: Rethinking the West Indian Polity

    Ian Randle Publishers,Jamaica Caribbean Constitutional Reform: Rethinking the West Indian Polity

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis is the first book to be written on Caribbean constitutional theory. In the continuing discourse and emergent project of constitutional reform in the Commonwealth Caribbean, it examines the origins of the Independence Constitutions across the Commonwealth Caribbean and traces the region’s constitutional development from the time of the emancipation of slavery through to independence. At its core is the premise that constitutional reform must necessarily result in a redefining of West Indian political identity. The theme throughout the book is the fact that the written constitutions of the Caribbean all have their origin in the British Parliament and the unwritten English constitution that has evolved over centuries. The existing constitutions were all the result of the collaborative efforts of the region’s political elite and British officials, with no participation from the West Indian people. The Crown is still claimed and the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council remains the final appellate court. In the result, political independence has simply meant that the countries of the Commonwealth Caribbean are independent subjects of the Crown rather than colonial subjects. The book begins with the process of `lawful devolution of sovereignty’ and the origins of the sovereign states of the Commonwealth Caribbean and proceeds to address the theoretical issues of founding and amendability as well as such pressing issues about the relationship between a prime minister and a head of state in a parliamentary republic and electoral reform. An entire chapter is devoted to the Bill of Rights and addresses the fundamental rights and freedoms preserved in Caribbean Bills of Rights as well as the controversial and paradoxical Savings Clauses, which in and of themselves might justify the rewriting of the fundamental rights provisions of Commonwealth Caribbean Constitutions. Caribbean Constitutional Reform offers a philosophical justification for the establishment of a Caribbean Supreme Court based on the idea of sovereignty and the right of a people to define themselves. This work makes the first definitive step to addressing these critical issues in Caribbean constitutional theory and sets the stage for a `new constitutional discourse’ shaped by a Caribbean court of final appeal.

  • Law, Institutions and Malaysian Economic

    NUS Press Law, Institutions and Malaysian Economic

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis pioneering volume develops an institutionalist analysis of Malaysia's post-colonial economy by exploring the political economy of development and particularly the interface between economics and law. The various authors show that economic policy initiatives in Malaysia have often been accompanied by corresponding legislative and regulatory reforms intended to create an appropriate legal environment, and that economic problems or crises arising from earlier policies have led to major legislative innovations.The volume begins with a survey of Malaysia's colonial legal heritage and significant postcolonial developments, and the relationship between economic change, institutional developments and the law. Colonial land law transformed the rural Malay population, and the authors show that the routine depiction of this sector of the economy as a 'traditional' relic of the pre-colonial era is misleading. With regard to industry, the government changed course after independence, promoting manufacturing investments and technological progress, and forging new industrial relations between the state and trade unions. Drawing on this background the book rejects claims that corporate governance failures caused the financial crisis of the 1990s, and criticizes claims for the superiority of Anglo-American arrangements for corporate governance.
