EU Employment Law

Catherine Barnard - OUP Oxford, 9 ago 2012

 

Anteprima

This new edition of EU Employment Law provides a complete revision and update of the leading English language text in the field. The coverage in the new edition has been expanded with material on all the latest developments, incorporating the changes made by the Lisbon Treaty; the EU2020 strategy; the Charter of Fundamental Rights; the 'Article 19 Directives'; the Temporary Agency Work Directive; the revisions to the existing including the Directives on Parental Leave and European Works Council; and the new Social Security Regulations 883/2004. It also analyses the ever-expanding body of employment case law, including the momentous decisions in Viking, Laval, Rueffert, and Commission v Luxembourg. The book begins with an examination of the development of EU employment law focusing on the shift from employment law to employment policy. The text then studies rule-making in the field of employment law, considering both the traditional routes to legislation and governance techniques such as the Open Method of Coordination. The final chapters look closely at the substantive area of employment law, examining the free movement of persons, equal treatment, health and safety and working conditions, the restructuring of enterprises, worker participation, and collective action. Throughout, the book addresses the fundamental question as to the purpose of EU employment law: is it primarily economic, or social, or both?

Contribuciones al Derecho Romano de Sucesiones y Donaciones

Ortuño Pérez, María Eugenia - Dykinson, 2015 

 

Anteprima

a obra se estructura en cuatro capítulos. El primero contempla un caso concreto de la práctica testamentaria en la España visigoda, en un momento en el que la misma no era uniforme. La Autora analiza, desde un punto de vista jurídico, uno de los pocos documentos que se han conservado de esta época: el testamento del obispo de Huesca, Vicente. El segundo capítulo está destinado a la limitación de la capacidad de testar. En primer lugar, se estudia dicha limitación en relación a las mujeres. En segundo lugar, el estudio se centra en la Lex Falcidia de Legatis (año 40 aC.) con la que se estableció que el causante no podía legar más que las tres cuartas partes de la herencia, porque el cuarto restante -la cuarta falcidia- debía reservarse en todo caso al heredero. El tercer capítulo versa sobre la aceptación de la herencia y se centra, en primer lugar, en el análisis del aforismo o regulae iuris: Vel omnia admittantur, vel omnia repudientur. Sigue este capítulo con la referencia a la aceptación tácita de la herencia. Termina la obra en el capítulo cuarto en el que, siguiendo la sistemática tradicional, la Autora trata sobre la problemática de la donación, centrándose concretamente en la donatio mortis causa realizada con la intención de defraudar a los acreedores. Para ello se basa en un único fragmento del jurista Salvio Juliano que forma parte de sus Libri Digestorum.

Thinking Without a Banister: Essays in Understanding, 1953-1975

Hannah Arendt - Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, 6 mar 2018

 

Anteprima

Hannah Arendt was born in Germany in 1906 and lived in America from 1941 until her death in 1975. Thus her life spanned the tumultuous years of the twentieth century, as did her thought. She did not consider herself a philosopher, though she studied and maintained close relationships with two great philosophers—Karl Jaspers and Martin Heidegger—throughout their lives. She was a thinker, in search not of metaphysical truth but of the meaning of appearances and events. She was a questioner rather than an answerer, and she wrote what she thought, principally to encourage others to think for themselves. Fearless of the consequences of thinking, Arendt found courage woven in each and every strand of human freedom.

In 1951 she published The Origins of Totalitarianism, in 1958 The Human Condition, in 1961 Between Past and Future, in 1963 On Revolution and Eichmann in Jerusalem, in 1968 Men in Dark Times, in 1970 On Violence, in 1972 Crises of the Republic, and in 1978, posthumously, The Life of the Mind. Starting at the turn of the twenty-first century, Schocken Books has published a series of collections of Arendt’s unpublished and uncollected writings, of which Thinking Without a Banister is the fifth volume.

The title refers to Arendt’s description of her experience of thinking, an activity she indulged without any of the traditional religious, moral, political, or philosophic pillars of support. The book’s contents are varied: the essays, lectures, reviews, interviews, speeches, and editorials, taken together, manifest the relentless activity of her mind as well as her character, acquainting the reader with the person Arendt was, and who has hardly yet been appreciated or understood.

The Constitution of Brazil: A Contextual Analysis

Virgílio Afonso da Silva - Hart Publishing, 2019

 

This book offers an original and comprehensive analysis of Brazilian constitutional law and shows how the 1988 Constitution has been a cornerstone in Brazil's struggle to achieve institutional stability and promote the enforcement of fundamental rights. In the realm of rights, although much has been done to decrease the gap between constitutional text and constitutional practice, several types of inequalities still affect and sometimes impair the enforcement of the ambitious bill of rights laid down by the Brazilian Constitution. Within the organisation of powers, the book not only describes how its legislative, executive and judicial functions are organised, but above all else, it analyses how a politically fragmented National Congress, a powerful President and an activist Supreme Court engage with each other in ways that one could hardly grasp by reading the constitutional text without contextual analysis. Similarly, the book also shows how the three-tiered federation established in 1988 has undergone a process of centralisation led not only by the central government but also by the Brazilian Supreme Court. In addition to chapters on organisation of powers, fundamental rights, federalism, and the legislative process, the book also presents an overview of Brazilian constitutionalism with a special focus on the transition from authoritarianism to democracy, which led to the enactment of the 1988 Constitution. In the conclusion, the author argues that part of the Constitution's transformative potential remains to be realised. Enforcing the Constitution, not changing it, has been the real challenge in the last three decades and will continue to be for many years to come.

In den Gefilden der romischen Feldmesser: Juristische, Wissenschaftsgeschichtliche, Historische Und Sprachliche Aspekte

di Eberhard Knobloch e Cosima Möller - de Gruyter, 2014

Estratto

Den Schriften der römischen Feldmesser wird seit etwa 20 Jahren verstärkt Interesse verschiedener Wissenschaftsdisziplinen entgegen gebracht. Die Texte der Gromatici veteres geben zu Fragen Anlass: Welche rechtsgeschichtlichen Schlüsse lassen sich ziehen? Welche Welt- und Raumvorstellungen liegen zugrunde? Wie sind sie geschichtlich zu kontextualisieren und wie wurden sie rezipiert? Die hier vorgelegten Beiträge ergeben ein facettenreiches Bild, dem modernste Forschungen und erste Werkstatt-Ergebnisse der Forschergruppe B-I-1 zugrunde liegen. Der neue Blick auf die Texte führt oft zu neuen Interpretationen. Es werden mathematische Hintergründe und ihre Rezeption, die Rolle bei Grenzstreitigkeiten von Gemeinwesen und in der diokletianischen Steuerreform, die Rezeption griechischer Geographen, die Prägung des Wegesystems und der frührömische Hintergrund der Landnutzung behandelt. Die Rolle in der antiken Fachliteratur wird beleuchtet und das Vokabular terminologisch analysiert.
Das reiche Sach- und Quellenregister ermöglicht dem an Einzelproblemen interessierten Leser einen schnellen Zugriff.
Der Band ist unverzichtbar für jeden, der sich mit den römischen Feldmessertexten beschäftigt.

Problemi di diritto pubblico nelle XII tavole

Emanuela Calore - UniversItalia, 2017 

 

Il diritto arcaico probabilmente non conosceva una distinzione tra privatus e publicus, la cui origine sembrerebbe piuttosto da collocare verso gli ultimi secoli del periodo repubblicano. Attraverso il Digesto ci è tramandata la famosa distinzione ulpianea tra le due positiones dello studio del diritto, con la chiara esplicitazione di cosa siano lo ius publicum e lo ius privatum.

It also includes an extensive subject index to Volumes I through VI of the series, consolidated tables of cases and treaties, in addition to the one fisheries agreement specifically implementing the Convention. The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea 1982: A Commentary is a collection of commentaries based almost entirely on the formal and informal documentation the Convention.

United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, 1982: A Commentary. 3.

Myron H. Nordquist, Shabtai Rosenne, Satya N. Nandan - Martinus Nijhoff Publishers, 1995

 

Anteprima

Volume III is the fourth substantive volume to be published in this series, covering articles 86 to 132 of the 1982 Convention. These articles address the issue of States' rights and jurisdiction in maritime areas beyond the limits of national jurisdiction (with the exception of the international seabed area), as well as the regime to be applied to islands, in enclosed and semi-enclosed seas, and with the access of landlocked States to and from the sea. Volume III is a direct continuation of Volume II, which deals with maritime areas under the sovereignty of jurisdiction of a State, and completes the commentary on the provisions of the Convention negotiated under the auspices of the Second Committee at UNCLOS III. The work of the Second Committee was an integrated whole, and the unity of the theme has been spread over two volumes solely as a matter of convenience. A number of documentary annexes have been included in this volume.

Climate Change, Forced Migration, and International Law

Jane McAdam - OUP Oxford, 23 feb 2012

 

Anteprima

Displacement caused by climate change is an area of growing concern. With current rises in sea levels and changes to the global climate, it is an issue of fundamental importance to the future of many parts of the world. This book critically examines whether States have obligations to protect people displaced by climate change under international refugee law, international human rights law, and the international law on statelessness. Drawing on field work undertaken in Bangladesh, India, and the Pacific island States of Kiribati and Tuvalu, it evaluates whether the phenomenon of 'climate change-induced displacement' is an empirically sound category for academic inquiry. It does so by examining the reasons why people move (or choose not to move); the extent to which climate change, as opposed to underlying socio-economic factors, provides a trigger for such movement; and whether traditional international responses, such as the conclusion of new treaties and the creation of new institutions, are appropriate solutions in this context. In this way, the book queries whether flight from habitat destruction should be viewed as another facet of traditional international protection or as a new challenge requiring more creative legal and policy responses. law, and the international law on statelessness.

Protection Des Migrants Et Des Réfugiés Au Xxie Siècle / Migration and Refugee Protection in the 21st Century: Aspects de droit international / International Legal Aspects

a cura di Guy S. Goodwin-Gill, Philippe Weckel - Brill - Nijhoff - November 2015

 

International migration and refugee protection are at a crossroads. On the one hand, contested rules and the absence of competent institutions open the door to exploitation, smuggling and trafficking, and also to inefficient, often ineffective management at the State level; on the other, long-accepted rules of refugee protection, such as non-refoulement, are under strain as States struggle to cope with increasing numbers of the displaced and an international infra-structure seemingly incapable of dealing adequately with causes, including conflict, of promoting solutions and sharing responsibility fairly and equitably, and of ensuring protection of the rights of those on the move. This collection of essays could not be more timely. Coming from a wide range of backgrounds and experience, the authors take up these issues, from the very nature of migration and displacement in a world of sovereign States, through tentative efforts to improve migration management by way of treaty, to the ever-present tension between individual rights and State interests.This volume provides essential reading for anyone interested in the burning questions of today, and in the role of international law in steering coherent responses and facilitating humane solutions.

IL DIRITTO DELL'IMPERO ROMANO D'ORIENTE: Introduzione alle fonti e ai protagonisti (KANONIKA Vol. 21) 

di Danilo Ceccarelli Morolli - Orientalia Christiana : Valore italiano Lilamé, 2016 

Estratto

 Con questo volume l’Autore intende proporre un manuale introduttivo alla civiltà giuridica costantinopolitana, attraverso la presentazione delle fonti e dei legislatori. L’eredità del diritto dell’Impero Romano d’Oriente sopravvive negli ordinamenti civilistici odierni, e in particolare nel diritto canonico orientale della Chiesa cattolica e delle Chiese ortodosse di tradizione bizantina. Per il giurista contemporaneo lo studio del diritto dell’Impero Romano d’Oriente si rivela essenziale per il raggiungimento di un quadro formativo d’eccellenza.
Danilo Ceccarelli Morolli è docente ordinario presso il Pontificio Istituto Orientale e membro corrispondente del Pontificio Comitato di Scienze Storiche. Nel corso delle sue ricerche si è interessato ai rapporti tra diritto romano e diritti orientali, con particolare attenzione alla storia delle fonti e degli istituti del diritto canonico orientale.
