Technology and Legal Systems
The advent of the knowledge economy and society has made it increasingly necessary for law reformers and policy makers to take account of the effects of technology upon the law and upon legal and political processes. This book explores aspects of technology's relationship with law and government, and in particular the effects changing technology has had on constitutional structures and upon business. Part I examines the legal normative influence of constitutional structures and political theories. It focuses on the interrelationship between laws and legal procedure with technology and the effect technology can have on the legal environment. Part II discusses the relationship between government and technology both at the national and international level. The author argues that technology must be contextualized within a constitution and draws on historical and contemporary examples to illustrate how technology has both shaped civilizations and been the product of its political and constitutional environment.

Constitutional Paradigms and the Stability of States
This book examines the influence of constitutional legal paradigms upon the political stability and viability of states. It contributes to the literature in the field by focussing on how constitutional flexibility may have led to the rise of 'successful' states and to the decline of 'unsuccessful' states, by promoting stability. Divided into two parts, the book considers theories of the rise and fall of civilizations and individual states, explains the concept of hard and soft constitutions and applies this concept to different types of state models. A series of international case studies in the second part of the book identifies the key dynamics in legal, political and economic history and includes the UK, US, New Zealand and Eastern Europe.

O livro enfrenta a questão da interpretação dos limites de cobertura devida aos usuários em contratos de planos de saúde. Ele não busca descrever como essa área está positivada no direito brasileiro, mas compreender, a partir da complexa interação entre filosofia, direito, regulação, economia e saúde, como é possÃvel prestar esse serviço para atender uma dupla dimensão ideal desejável: o máximo de cobertura dentro de um preço acessÃvel ao consumidor. A evolução do conhecimento cientÃ...
CoronavÃrus e responsabilidade civil
A parte introdutória desta obra coletiva fica a cargo da Professora da Faculdade de Direito de Coimbra, Mafalda Miranda Barbosa, com o artigo versando sobre "CoronavÃrus: a responsabilidade na experiência europeia – o caso Português". A autora principia em uma bipartição quanto à s projeções negativa e positiva ao nÃvel da responsabilidade civil. No aspecto negativo a covid-19 pode conduzir a uma exclusão da responsabilidade contratual, seja diante da força maior (impossibilidade de cumprimento não imputável ao devedor) ou nas situações em que, não havendo impossibilidade, o instituto da alteração superveniente das circunstâncias torna-se operante. Positivamente, a covid...
Der welthandelsrechtliche Gentechnikkonflikt
Lorenz Stökl untersucht in der vorliegenden Veröffentlichung die Handelsbeschränkungen für das Inverkehrbringen gentechnisch veränderter Lebensmittel in der EG.Nach einer Darstellung der betreffenden Vorschriften beschäftigt er sich mit der für den internationalen Handel insbesondere zwischen den USA und der EG bedeutsamen und im juristischen Schrifttum umstrittenen Frage, ob diese Handelsbeschränkungen mit den Anforderungen des WTO-Rechts vereinbar sind. Nach Auffassung des Verfassers, die sich auch auf die Entscheidungen der WTO-Panels und des Appellate Body in anderen Fällen stützt, sind die gemeinschaftsrechtliche Zulassungspflicht und die Kennzeichnungsvorschriften prinzipiell...
