The New EU Counter-Terrorism Offences and the Complementary Mechanism of Controlling Terrorist Financing as Challenges for the Rule of Law
This study analyses the modern EU counter-terrorism trends, focusing on two parallel axes: (a) the repressive one, where new criminal offences related to terrorist activity (receiving training for terrorism, terrorist financing, travelling and facilitating travelling for the purpose of terrorism) have been instituted, and (b) the preventive one, where establishing a framework of provisions aiming to deter terrorist financing prevails. After critically evaluating EU's interventions in both axes, the study concludes by noting a ‘paradigm shift’ between repression and prevention in the field of countering terrorism, while suggesting proposals on a transposition of Directive (EU) 2017/541 into national legislations that adheres to the fundamental EU law principles, and a preventive control over terrorist financing that abides by the rule of law.
Intention and Wrongdoing
A comprehensive defense of the principle of double effect and the importance of intentions for normative ethics.
Towards a European Criminal Record
The success of the four core freedoms of the EU has created fertile ground for transnational organised crime. Innovative, transnational legal weapons are therefore required by national authorities. The availability of data on criminal convictions is at the forefront of the debate. But which mechanism for availability can be used effectively while at the same time respecting an increasingly higher level of data protection at national level? In the fluid, post-'Reform Treaty' environment, the EU is moving towards the creation of a European Criminal Record which will ultimately secure availability of criminal data beyond the weaknesses of Mutual Legal Assistance mechanisms. Examining the concept of a European Criminal Record in its legal, political and data protection dimensions, this multidisciplinary study is an indispensable exploration of a major initiative in European Criminal Law which is set to monopolise the debate on EU judicial co-operation and enforcement.
European Criminal Law
European criminal law faces many challenges in harmonising states' criminal justice systems. This book presents a systematic analysis of this legal area and examines the difficulties involved.
Consent
This volume presents a leading contribution to the substantive arena relating to consent in the criminal law. In broad terms, the ambit of legally valid consent in extant law is contestable and opaque, and reveals significant problems in adoption of consistent approaches to doctrinal and theoretical underpinnings of consent. This book seeks to provide a logical template to focus the debate. The overall concept addresses three specific elements within this arena, embracing an overarching synergy between them. This edifice engages in an examination of UK provisions, with specialist contributions on Irish and Scottish law, and in contrasting these provisions against alternative domestic jurisdi...
German Practice in International Law: Volume 2
Customary international law is based on State practice. This book presents the international law practice of Germany, the world's fourth-largest economy and powerhouse of the European Union, which makes an important contribution to the creation and development of customary international law. It is the first and only presentation of German practice in international law in English. The book combines a case study approach, providing analysis and commentary on Germany's practice, with a classic digest of primary materials, including diplomatic correspondence, statements, and court decisions. The book is an ideal complement to other compilations of international law practice and is an essential resource for scholars and practitioners of international law. It will also be of interest to scholars of international relations, politics, and diplomatic studies.

Der verwerflich handelnde Geschädigte
English summary: This book offers a detailed comparative analysis of the "ex turpi causa non oritur actio" maxim. Focusing in particular on its dogmatic classification and policy rationales, Lorenz Mayr demonstrates that the doctrine's scope of application within tort law is actually very narrow. German description: Kann der Schadiger einem Anspruch aus unerlaubter Handlung den Einwand entgegenhalten, dass der geltend gemachte Schaden auf einem verwerflichen Verhalten des Geschadigten beruht? Im englischen Recht ist die sogenannte "Illegality Defence" zwar grundsatzlich anerkannt, doch sind die Voraussetzungen, die dogmatische Qualifikation und die sachliche Rechtfertigung dieser Rechtsfigur...
Business Criminal Law
This textbook deals with business criminal law from the perspective of Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. It primarily addresses students in business and economics (master's programme) as well as business practitioners, but is also meant for lawyers and law students. As criminal law legislators exert considerable influence on economic life, raising and growing awareness in the area of criminal law seems compulsory for future managers and executives. This textbook approaches the legal field less normatively and rather in a practical and entrepreneurial way. Its contents are based on the master level class "Business Criminal Law" at "MCI | The Entrepreneurial School" taught by the author. This textbook has been recommended and developed for university courses in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
Sachverhaltsaufklärung im Verwaltungsprozess
Rechtsprechung bedeutet nicht nur das Finden und Aussprechen des Rechts, sondern immer auch die Aufklarung dessen, woruber das Gericht im Einzelfall entscheiden soll. Traditionell beschaftigt sich die deutsche Rechtswissenschaft mit Rechtsprechung vor allem unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Rechtsinterpretation. Die nicht weniger wichtige Feststellung des relevanten Sachverhalts erfahrt hingegen nur selten Aufmerksamkeit. Dies gilt fur die Verwaltungsgerichtsbarkeit in noch starkerem Masse als fur die Zivil- und Strafgerichte. Maria Geismann untersucht das rechtliche Koordinatensystem, innerhalb dessen die Verwaltungsgerichte die Tatsachengrundlage fur ihre Entscheidungen festlegen. Sie betrachtet die verwaltungsgerichtlichen Funktionsbedingungen und -grenzen im Lichte ihrer legitimationstheoretischen Grundlagen und des gesetzlichen Auftrags zur Wahrheitssuche ebenso wie die spezifische Rolle der Verwaltung im Prozess.
