Exclusive jurisdiction rules related to intellectual property rights cases are insufficiently supported by the arguments usually invoked in their favor. Benedetta Ubertazzi argues that such rules are even contrary to the public international law provisions on the avoidance of a denial of justice and should therefore be abandoned.--

The loss of a home can lead to major violations of a person’s dignity and human rights. Yet, evictions take place everyday in all countries across Europe.

Through this comparison the book exposes the emergence of consistent, Europe-wide standards and norms.
Tenancy law has developed in all EU member states for decades, or even centuries, but constitutes a widely blank space in comparative and European law. This book fills an important gap in the literature by considering the diverse and complex panorama of housing policies, markets and their legal regulation across Europe. Expert contributors argue that that while unification is neither politically desired nor opportune, a European recommendation of best practices including draft rules and default contracts implementing a regulatory equilibrium would be a rewarding step forward.

This book explores the interplay between performing arts, intangible cultural heritage and digital environments through a compendium of essays on emerging practices and case studies, as well as critical, historical and theoretical perspectives. It features essays that engage with varied forms of intangible cultural heritage, from music and storytelling to dance, theatre and martial arts. Cases of digital technology interventions are provided from different geographical and cultural settings, from Europe to Asia and the Americas. Together, the collection reflects on the implications that digital interventions have on intangible cultural heritage engagements, its curation and transmission in diverse localities. The volume is a valuable resource for discovering the multiple ways in which cultural heritage is mediated through digital technologies, and engages with audiences, artists, users and researchers.
En la presente obra se empieza prestando atención a cuestiones tales como las siguientes: supuestos en que procede la interpretación, tipos predicados de la misma e intérpretes posibles; conexión entre la interpretación de los contratos y la interpretación de las leyes, semejanzas y diferencias entre ambas, utilidad, en fin, que las reglas de interpretación de las leyes pudieran tener en las de los contratos, entendidas, éstas últimas, como verdaderas reglas jurídicas. Ello sabido y por lo que respecta a las concretas normas sobre interpretación contenidas en los artículos 1281 y siguientes del Código civil, además de una panorámica general de las mismas —ordenadas de modo singular—, se pone atención y énfasis en cuestiones singulares como las siguientes: relevancia de los actos de las partes anteriores al contrato, con vistas al mejor entendimiento del mismo; análisis, minucioso y crítico, de la pretendida máxima “in claris non fit interpretatio”; los usos como pretendido criterio interpretativo y su equiparación —un tanto forzada— a la costumbre; alcance, en fin y sin ánimo exhaustivo, de la llamada “interpretatio contra stipulatorem”.
