Indeterminacy of International Law?
The most important (in)determinacy theses in international law since the 1920s are scrutinised in this book. As Severin Meier demonstrates, the extent of legal determinacy depends neither on some linguistic essence found in the text nor on theories that allegedly stand above practice. Instead, the (in)determinacy of law is shown to arise purely from practice. This reconceptualisation of a key discussion in legal philosophy provides a new perspective on the frame of meaning of legal norms.
Between Islamic and Secular Law
When describing the legal systems and laws of today’s Muslim-majority states in the Middle Eastern and North African region, two categories of laws are identified: one derived from Islamic and one from non-Islamic law. Following this notion, the literature finds that novel legal areas do not have any connection to Islamic law since they were not regulated by classical Islamic law. In contrast, the topic of organ transplantation is inherently connected to Islamic law because Islam considers itself to encompass all aspects of life. This research based on the analysis of organ transplantation laws of the MENA states encourages to rethink that a strict dichotomy between Islamic and non-Islamic laws does not exist. Organ transplantation laws in MENA states generally follow an international legal standard while also complying with the sharia.
Expedited Procedures in International Commercial Arbitration
International arbitration has enjoyed remarkable success. However, in recent years repeated concerns relating to the efficiency of the proceedings have emerged. These concerns have led to the introduction of provisions for expedited arbitral procedures. Through analysing various arbitration rules, this book will examine the require-ments under which expedited procedures are admissible, what the central char-acteristics of such procedures are, and how such procedures can be classified and described in comparison to a conventional arbitral procedure. A significant part will examine the tension between procedural efficiency on the one hand and on quality of the procedure and award on the other. In an excursus, early determination procedures will be examined to complete the tool box to increase procedural efficiency.
Blockchain and Collective Rights Management of Copyright and Related Rights at the Global Level
Online music streaming has become an important source of revenue within the music industry, but the necessary licensing of musical works and sound recordings can still be quite cumbersome. The thesis discusses what blockchain is, how it could facilitate global licensing, and whether it could replace or improve the current system of collective rights management.
Foreign Electoral Interference: Normative Implications in Light of International Law, Human Rights, and Democratic Theory
Foreign interference in elections may have attracted increased public attention since 2016, but it is a practice virtually as old as modern electoral democracy itself. This book offers the most comprehensive account of its normative implications yet. It discusses relevant standards of international law, human rights, and democratic theory, thereby casting a net wide enough to address the fundamental value of human dignity as well as the conditions of real political autonomy. Ultimately, the book identifies potential deficits of legality, accountability, and legitimacy ensuing from certain types of foreign electoral interference, and it provides ideas on what can and should be done in response.
Erard
S�bastien Erard's (1752-1831) inventions have had an enormous impact on instruments and musical life and are still at the foundation of piano building today. Drawing on an unusually rich set of archives from both the Erard firm and the Erard family, author Robert Adelson shows how the Erard piano played an important and often leading role in the history of the instrument, beginning in the late eighteenth century and continuing into the final decades of the nineteenth. The Erards were the first piano builders in France to prioritise the more sonorous grand piano, sending gifts of their new model to both Haydn and Beethoven. Erard's famous double-escapement action, which improved the instrum...
L'informatique en nuage
Le présent ouvrage est publié à la suite du Colloque CEDIDAC du 11 mars 2022 organisé par Prof. Sylvain Métille et consacré à l'informatique en nuage. Il est composé pour moitié des contributions des intervenants du colloque, et pour moitié d'auteurs invités. Les auteurs abordent les conditions à respecter pour pouvoir déléguer un traitement de données personnelles, que l'on soit un responsable du traitement privé ou une administration publique, mais aussi la qualification juridique d'un contrat d'informatique en nuage, les aspects pratiques de la sortie d'un tel contrat, le code de conduite CISPE et l'approche de l'administration vaudoise. Deux sujets particuliers sont encore abordés, avec la question du dossier électronique du patient et l'importance de la territorialité.
Que sont-elles devenues?
Mais que sont-elles donc devenues, les filles de son adolescence, de ses premières années de travail, d'avant et d'après mariage? Entre fausses pistes et vraie bonne humeur, Claude vous propose un voyage où s'entremêlent nostalgie et pensées truffées de poèmes, de jeux de mots, de drôleries et de devinettes. Employé de commerce puis de banque, correspondant de presse, Claude Gentizon a vu du monde et du pays, mais est surtout bien trop humble pour se prendre au sérieux. Avec tendresse, humour et p'tits clins d'oeil à son village de Cortaillod (Neuchâtel), il tisse à travers cet Objet Autobiographique Non Identifié un patchwork de souvenirs, de chroniques journalistiques d'ici et d'ailleurs, de poésie (en vers octosyllabiques) et de loufoqueries en tout genre qui n'ont pour prétention que de vous divertir.
Le profilage dans le cadre d'une procédure d'embauche entre particuliers
La nouvelle loi sur la protection des données comprend désormais une définition légale du profilage. La question de savoir dans quelle mesure un profilage effectué dans le cadre d’une procédure d’embauche soumise au droit privé suisse est licite n’a pas encore été abordé en doctrine. La présente contributiona été rédigée dans le but de combler cette lacune. Ainsi, plusieurs questions sont abordées : le recours au profilage dans le contexte d’une telle procédure d’embauche est-il légal ? Quelles sont les éventuelles limites imposées à l’employeur ? La réglementation actuelle est-elle compatible avec le droit supérieur, notamment avec la Constitution fédérale, la CEDH et le droit constitutionnel européen ? Quelles mesures d’ordre juridique pourraient être mises en oeuvre afin de garantir une meilleure protection des droits des candidats?
