This first book in English on the Rome I Regulation contains the papers submitted to that conference.

Redefining Reparations
This edited volume offers a new interpretation of the historically momentous 1952 Wassenaar negotiations between representatives of the Federal Republic of Germany, Israel, and the Jewish Claims Conference to negotiate reparations, compensation, and restitution in the aftermath of the Holocaust. Wassenaar 1952 marked the first time that reparations were the subject of negotiations between representatives of victims and perpetrators following mass human rights violations and genocide. The reparations program that Germany established after the Holocaust eventually became a point of reference for many calling for reparations to deal with the aftermath of other atrocities – from colonialism to slavery – in contexts as diverse as Namibia, the United States, and beyond. Combining perspectives from history, anthropology, international relations, and transitional justice, this volume reassesses the course and global legacy of these negotiations. The book’s holistic and nuanced intervention in the study of the politics of repair makes it essential reading for students of history, law, transitional justice, and political science interested in the complex topic of reparations.

This second edition is an extensively revised and updated version of the first edition, in particular with a view to the worldwide debt crisis. The authors provide readers with an overview of the unique features of German business and enterprise law and an in-depth an...
Der Fall Brender und die Aufsicht über den öffentlich-rechtlichen Rundfunk
Der Verwaltungsrat des ZDF hat 2009 eine Vertragsverlängerung des Chefredakteurs abgelehnt. Aufgrund des dadurch ausgelösten Streits über die Staatsfreiheit des Rundfunks und die vom Bundesverfassungsgericht geforderte Vertretung der "maßgeblichen gesellschaftlichen Kräfte" in den Rundfunkgremien wird der ZDF-Staatsvertrag nun vom höchsten deutschen Gericht überprüft. Die Schrift beleuchtet die rechtlichen Hintergründe und stellt diese angesichts der Konvergenz der Medien zur Disposition.
