Postmemory und die Transformation der deutschen Erinnerungskultur
Deutet die zunehmende Ausweitung und Verflechtung deutschsprachiger Erinnerungsnarrative auf eine Aufsplitterung des Kollektivs hin, oder signalisiert sie vielmehr die Entstehung einer neuen, transnationalen und transkulturellen Form von Gemeinschaft?

Diesen Fragen geht der Band nach, indem er die Herausforderungen beleuchtet, die neuere Werke der Kunst und Literatur an die Erinnerungskultur stellen. Kreisten die Untersuchungen zum Holocaust-Gedächtnis in de...
Extraterritoriality of EU Economic Law
This book sheds new light on the potential application of EU law to situations arising outside EU territory, and its consequences. In today’s globalized world, EU law and the ECJ’s decisions have been calling for exceptions and defining new connecting elements that make the traditional approach of EU law, based on the territoriality principle, less straightforward. This is the case with e.g. the effects doctrine in the context of EU competition law, as was fully recognized after the ECJ’s Intel case.

Wills in the Roman Empire
The present book deals with the testamentary practice as seen through papyri, tablets, doctrinal and literary sources, manuscript tradition, etc. mostly in the period after the constitutio Antoniniana. The aim of Wills in the Roman empire: a documentary approach is to reconstruct how people applied law and how testamentary practice looked like in everyday life: how wills were made and opened, what was the meaning of particular dispositions. These questions constitute a part of a wider discussion concerning the level of knowledge and application of Roman law in the provinces after the edict of Caracalla. The book is supplemented with four Appendices, where all wills from the Hellenistic, Roman, and Byzantine periods are collected for the first time in scholarly literature.
