En esta obra se analiza lo relativo a una nueva figura del derecho, conocida como crowfunding, o en términos de nuestra ley, sistemas de financiamiento colectivo. Figura que ha sido posible gracias al progreso tecnológico, que ha permitido la convocatoria sencilla a gran cantidad de personas a través de plataformas virtuales, sumado a la progresiva aceptación por el público de los fenómenos de economía colectiva y, también, la reducción o inexistencia de fuentes de financiamiento públicas o privadas para ciertas iniciativas de pequeña o relativamente pequeña entidad. Igualmente, se analiza un nuevo tipo societario del derecho argentino que deja en manos de sus socios su propio diseño normativo: la Sociedad por Acciones Simplificada, que parte de los principios jurídicos de libertad contractual y autonomía normativa, y que tiene como premisa la eficiencia en la estructuración jurídica del negocio societario.
The explosion of the field of genetics over the last decade, with the new technologies that have stimulated research, suggests that a new sort of reference work is needed to keep pace with such a fast-moving and interdisciplinary field. Brenner's Encyclopedia of Genetics, Second Edition, Seven Volume Set, builds on the foundation of the first edition by addressing many of the key subfields of genetics that were just in their infancy when the first edition was published. The currency and accessibility of this foundational content will be unrivalled, making this work useful for scientists and non-scientists alike. Featuring relatively short entries on genetics topics written by experts in that...

El elemento temporal incorporado a una relación obligatoria es un tema que siempre ha interesado a la doctrina. Todo lo que gira en torno al tiempo en el Derecho de obligaciones se puede considerar, así, un problema clásico. Y aunque puede parecer que se trata de una cuestión suficientemente estudiada, los cambios socioeconómicos y legislativos experimentados en los últimos años han hecho surgir perspectivas nuevas, enfoques diferentes, que ponen en duda la utilidad de algunos dogmas antiguos. Estas circunstancias han propiciado que el autor de este libro analice, con una perspectiva nueva, los problemas clásicos del Derecho de obligaciones en los que el elemento temporal aparece com...
La actual publificación del ordenamiento jurídico-deportivo no puede ocultar su origen estrictamente particular y ajeno al poder público, ni la importante y trascendente incidencia de las instituciones propias del Derecho privado en su contenido, plenamente presente no sólo por la configuración del deporte mediante entidades privadas de base asociativa o a través de personas físicas, sino también por la importante patrimonialización de su desarrollo ante el incremento de las actividades deportivas de carácter profesional. En esta obra se lleva a cabo un estudio del ámbito privado de las relaciones jurídico-personales deportivas, abordándose la incidencia jurídica en el deporte de la nacionalidad, la tutela judicial efectiva, el arbitraje, los derechos al honor, intimidad y propia imagen, así como el régimen jurídico de los entes privados no lucrativos, llevándose a cabo para ello un profundo análisis crítico de la situación actual y aportándose diversas propuestas para la mejora del sistema.
Climate change and ongoing transformation processes in economy and agriculture will have strong and multiple impacts in the Baltic region. In particular coastal zones face increasing hazards, e.g. due to sea level rise or changes in riverine nutrient loads and eutrophication. These changes also offer a wide range of new opportunities in the Baltic Region. Adaptation measures are needed but require a thorough and spatially differentiated understanding of underlying ecological, economic and social processes. Sixteen contributions by authors from eight countries give a comprehensive overview of these changes, their consequences and practical challenges with focus on coastal zones. Besides risks, the chances and opportunities of changes for the region are addressed and adaptation examples and strategies are given. The practitioners’ perspective and their demands are integrated in the various contributions.

These essays trace the femme fatale across literature, visual culture and cinema, exploring the ways in which fatal femininity has been imagined in different cultural contexts and historical epochs, and moving from mythical women such as Eve, Medusa and the Sirens via historical figures such as Mata Hari to fatal women in contemporary cinema.
Knights at Court is a grand tour and survey of manners, manhood, and court life in the Middle Ages, like no other in print. Composed on an epic canvas, this authoritative work traces the development of court culture and its various manifestations from the latter years of the Holy Roman Empire (ca. A.D. 1000) to the Italian Renaissance of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Leading medievalist and Renaissance scholar Aldo Scaglione offers a sweeping sociological view of three geographic areas that reveals a surprising continuity of courtly forms and motifs: German romances; the lyrical and narrative literature of northern and southern France; Italy's chivalric poetry. Scaglione discusses a...
