The European Social Charter: A Commentary
This authoritative commentary drafted by scholars of the Academic Network on the European Social Charter and Social Rights (ANESC) is aimed at academic researchers studying social and economic rights in Europe and legal practitioners, civil society organisations, trade unions and state representatives engaging with the procedures of the European Committee of Social Rights. The text is composed of contributions from a large number of experts, bringing together senior and young scholars across different countries and legal traditions with expertise in social and economic rights and a commitment to enhancing the European system for regulating these rights. The commentary offers 106 chapters, organised into eight volumes, some of which are focused on the substantive obligations of State Parties to the European Social Charter and the practice of the European Committee of Social Rights and others on the procedures that state representatives, international bodies and applicants must follow to engage with the Charter system. Volume 2 analyses the European Social Charter provisions, starting with the Preamble and covering Articles 1 to 10.
Managers in European Law
Business organisations depend on having one or more persons who can legitimately make strategic business decisions. But what are the legal entitlements of such key professionals? This is the first book – with contributions from experts across Europe – to take a broad comparative look at how the delimitation of rights and duties of executive and non-executive managers is done under different areas of EU law and across different jurisdictions (namely, EU and national law). Aspects of the executive role covered include the following: extensive treatment of definitions and methodologies to ascertain the status of managers as ‘workers’ in Europe; comprehensive interdisciplinary and compar...
Digital Work and Personal Data Protection
This book gathers contributions related to the most pressing problems and challenges that new information and communications technologies (ICT) and digital platforms introduce into the labour market, and the impact they have on the way that people work, their rights and even their health and dignity. In addition, there are also chapters studying personal data protection, which is currently a topic of maximum interest due to the New European Regulation about it. The contributors here are drawn from around the world, with several countries represented, such as Portugal, Spain, Italy, Brazil, Australia and Venezuela. The book will appeal lawyers, legal and human resources experts, economists, judges, academics and staff from trade unions, and employers’ representation. The volume features insights and contributions in different languages, with chapters in Spanish (12), English (6) and Portuguese (4).
El sistema normativo de prevención de riesgos laborales
Desde la aprobación de la Ley 31/1995, de 8 noviembre, de Prevención de Riesgos Laborales, se han adoptado numerosísimas normas de desarrollo cuya aplicación ha suscitado multitud de cuestiones e interrogantes vinculados con el alcance y contenido del deber de seguridad del empresario.El enfoque tradicional de la doctrina y jurisprudencia de nuestro país ha consistido, precisamente, en formular propuestas y soluciones a partir del análisis de la deuda de seguridad considerándola como genérica e indeterminada. La adopción de una nueva perspectiva era absolutamente necesaria porque el cambio de punto de vista arroja nuevas conclusiones sobre aspectos de gran envergadura y directamente...
Protección y expulsión de extranjeros en derecho penal
Se realiza una amplia exposición de derecho comparado y se analizan a fondo y críticamente los tipos penales que aparentemente se dirigen a la protección de extranjeros: los relativos al tráfico ilegal de personas; a la contratación de extranjeros sin permiso de trabajo en condiciones lesivas para sus derechos; los diversos tipos y la circunstancia agravante genérica que de forma más o menos directa se enfrentan a la discriminación y; como manifestación más propia de prácticas de componentes del propio grupo sobre los miembros más débiles, el delito de mutilación genital, especialmente femenina, y su posible relación con la libertad de conciencia. Su objetivo es facilitar a lo...
Protección social de las personas dependientes
La protección frente a las situaciones de dependencia personal, en las que la persona afectada requiere el auxilio de otra persona para realizar las actividades más esenciales de la vida cotidiana y en donde se pone en juego no sólo su calidad de vida sino también su autonomía y su dignidad personal, constituyen el último reto, por ahora, de los sistemas de protección social. La publicación se divide en dos partes. En la primera se estudia la incardinación de una posible nueva protección social de la dependencia en el sistema española de seguridad social. El segundo bloque ofrece un completo panorama de la actual protección social de las situaciones de dependencia en diferentes países.
Cognitive Vulnerability
Vulnerability has become part of our everyday vocabulary. We are used to hearing that we ought to act so as to protect the highly vulnerable; the qualifier suggests that we are all vulnerable. In addition to being of contemporary relevance, the notion of vulnerability has also been at the heart of philosophical reflection since the birth of the discipline, playing a vital role across many different traditions. Its prevalence is unsurprising. Vulnerability, which partially defines us as human beings, has appeared in many guises: mortality, finitude, sin, ignorance, etc. However, no attempt has yet been made to fully apply the notion of vulnerability to the domains of epistemology and the philosophy of science, to relate it to our general human vulnerability, and to explore the wide range of consequences that derive from it. The contributors of this book fill this gap; they present new approaches to classical problems. They highlight different aspects of our cognitive vulnerability, from issues related to the realism/antirealism debate to reflections on epistemic success and trust.
Labour Law and the Gig Economy
This international book analyses the impact of digitisation in labour markets, on labour relationships and also on labour processes. The rapid progress of modern disruptive technologies and AIs and their multiple applications to each phase of the labour production system, are changing the production rules on a global scale with significant impacts in every aspect of work. As new technologies transform work patterns and change the type of jobs available - destroying some while creating others - and even the nature of the tasks performed, numerous legal problems arise which are challenging to legislators and legal scholars who need to find appropriate solutions to them. Considering the labour ...
