Reasonableness is at the centre of legal debate, both in academic circles and in practice. This unique reference work adopts an interdisciplinary perspective, merging jurisprudence, legal theory, political philosophy and the different branches of law. All aspects relating to reasonableness and law are addressed by the most prominent scholars in the field. In the first part of the book, the focus is on jurisprudential analyses of the concept of reasonableness and on its moral, political and constitutional implications. In the second part, reasonableness is examined in the different fields of law like Public, Private and International Law. Here in more detail the practical consequences of reasonableness are worked out, making this work of interest to practitioners as well as legal theorists.
Digital democracy is a hot topic nowadays, its relevance growing along with the impact of computational platforms on our(political) life. Communication is the basal fabric on which society is defined, and it appears obvious that the civic organisation and politics itself should take the opportunities the "digital revolution" offers. Institutional inertia, nevertheless, causes large delays in updating and adapting. Therefore, the balance between participation and delegated representation is now facing a crisis. A thorough understanding of the factors involved in participation is a first step towards providing solutions. Using the Internet to fill the gap and build a digital democracy provides...
This book focusses on the developing role that the city currently plays in dealing with the effects of climate change and the instruments that can be utilised to make them truly green. Cities are at the centre of European directives aimed at tackling climate change, representing a key part of the European Green Deal and the National Recovery and Resilience Plans. As such, they provide valuable case studies for other countries grappling with how to address sustainability issues. This book is divided into three parts, with the first analysing Green urban planning and local governments in the European framework. The second examines various thematic aspects relating to this intersection, looking...
Em 25 de novembro de 2011 o IDET promoveu na Faculdade de Direito da Universidade de Coimbra um Colóquio sobre os «Novos caminhos para o direito dos transportes». Dessa ini-ciativa resultaram os textos que aparecem agora em papel para estarem ao dispor de um público interessado mais vasto. Nem todos os conferencistas puderam apresentar um texto para esta publicação. Os leitores encontrarão nestas Atas tex¬tos de Suzana Tavares da Silva («Regulação dos transportes em Portugal»), Carolina Cunha («O Regulamento 169/2009, do Conselho, de 26/2 - concorrência nos sectores dos transpor¬tes por via rodoviária, ferroviária e vias navegáveis»), Casalta Nabais («Aspectos da tributação dos transportes em Portugal») e Alexandre de Soveral Martins («As Regras de Roterdão»). Ficam assim disponíveis estudos sobre matérias muito variadas e que revelam a extensão destes domínios. Coimbra, Novembro de 2012 A Direção do IDET - Instituto de Direito das Empresas e do Trabalho
This book contends that, with regard to the likelihood of confusion standard, European trademark law applies the average consumer incoherently and inconsistently. To test this proposal, it presents an analysis of the horizontal and vertical level of harmonization of the average consumer. The horizontal part focuses on similar fictions in areas of law adjacent to European trademark law (and in economics), and the average consumer in unfair competition law. The vertical part focuses on European trademark law, represented mainly by EU trademark law, and the trademark laws of the UK, Sweden, Denmark and Norway. The book provides readers with a better understanding of key aspects of European trademark law (the average consumer applied as part of the likelihood of confusion standard) and combines relevant law and practices with theoretical content and other related areas of law (and economics). Accordingly, it is an asset for policymakers and practitioners, as well as general readers with an interest in intellectual property law and theory.
A emergência da Sociedade da Informação acentuou a superação dos pressupostos em que assentaram a disciplina da Concorrência Desleal, tributária da necessidade de garantir as posições adquiridas pelos agentes económicos no período subsequente à Revolução Industrial, e posteriormente o regime jurídico das Práticas Comerciais Desleais, justificado pela vulnerabilidade dos consumidores, que se manifesta designadamente na publicidade enganosa e nas vendas agressivas. Considerando a actual relevância da publicidade no processo de comercialização de produtos ou serviços, a presente obra aborda a tutela da lealdade segundo um modelo integrado de protecção de interesses privados nas relações de mercado.
