Sports Investigations Law and the ECHR

  • Categories: Law

This book focuses on the analysis of coercive measures that sports organisations are permitted to use as part of their internal sports investigation proceedings to investigate sports rule violations. The legality of such coercive measures is measured against the legal regime of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The book examines the important issue of the applicability of the ECHR to private sports organisations, which is currently widely debated in the field of sports law. The ECHR is hereby used as the analytical framework, which should also be a source of inspiration for jurisdictions outside the scope of application of the ECHR. The book further explores if and to what extent sports organisations and law enforcement agencies may exchange intelligence in support of both internal sports investigation proceedings and criminal investigations. At all stages, the work seeks to strike a balance between the interest of sports organisations to investigate sports rule violations and the rights of athletes and other sportspersons. The work will be an invaluable resource for students, academics and policy-makers working in the area of Sports Law and Human Rights Law.

Suicide Tourism

  • Categories: Law

This book explores the phenomenon of suicide tourism. As more countries legally permit assisted suicide and do not necessarily bar the participation of non-residents, suicide tourism is becoming a larger and more complex global issue. 0The book sets out the parameters for future debate by first contextualizing the practice and identifying its treatment under international and domestic law. It then analyses the ethical ramifications, weighing up where the state's responsibilities lie, and addressing the controversial roles of accompanying persons. The book goes on to offer a sociological and cultural analysis of suicide tourism, including interviews with the various takeholders: policy makers, assisted suicide associations, and medical and patients' organizations, in Switzerland, Germany, France, Italy, and the UK. The book concludes with a summary of the legal, ethical, political, and sociological dimensions of suicide tourism.

Advance Directives

This volume gives an overview on the currently debated ethical issues regarding advance directives from an international perspective. It focuses on a wider understanding of the known and widely accepted concept of patient self-determination for future situations. Although advance directives have been widely discussed since the 1980s, the ethical bases of advance directives still remain a matter of heated debates. The book aims to contribute to these controversial debates by integrating fundamental ethical issues on advance directives with practical matters of their implementation. Cultural, national and professional differences in how advance directives are understood by health care professions and by patients, as well as in laws and regulations, are pinpointed.

Gender und Recht

  • Categories: Law

Im Recht gibt es eine Vielzahl von problematischen Konstruktionen von Geschlechterkategorien und Machtverhältnissen. Die Beiträger*innen legen diese aus Sicht der Legal Gender Studies offen und setzen sich kritisch mit bestehenden Vorstellungen im Recht auseinander. Rechtsvergleiche und Erkenntnisse aus wissenschaftlichen Nachbardisziplinen erweitern darüber hinaus die Perspektive. Auf diese Weise wird eine notwendige Brücke zwischen Kritik, rechtlicher Dogmatik und rechtswissenschaftlicher Ausbildung geschlagen. Kreative Reformvorschläge bieten zudem Ansätze für ein produktives Weiterdenken von Recht und Geschlecht.
