Directors & Officers (D & O) Liability
In recent years several cases concerning the liability of directors and officers have courted controversy. Arguments raised in such discussions oscillate between two extremes: on the one hand, the need for governing bodies to give a space to entrepreneurial discretion and on the other hand to ensure the protection of investors in and creditors of a company from the consequences of disadvantageous decisions by those bodies. In light of the geographical dispersal of the above stakeholders, the study offers a comparative insight into the liability of directors and officers in 10 key European jurisdictions (in particular, Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain and Switzerland) and 4 non-European jurisdictions (namely Brazil, Israel, Turkey and the United States). Amongst other things it investigates existing company law principles on the topic and examines their interaction with tort law and other fields with a view to suggesting principles for better stakeholder protection. National reports are complemented by an economic analysis and insurance, conflict of laws and comparative reports. The study also benefits from case study analyses.
Commercial and Economic Law in Spain
Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this practical analysis of the structure, competence, and management of Spain provides substantial and readily accessible information for lawyers, academics, and policymakers likely to have dealings with its activities and data.

The monograph proceeds logically from the organization’s genesis and historical development to the structure of its membership, its various organs and their mandates, its role...

Protection of Traditional Cultural Expressions in Latin America
This book analyses the topic of protecting traditional cultural expressions (TCEs) in Latin America. It questions classic legal approaches and involves the interface of anthropology and law. The study analyses regional, national and local particularities of law on paper and law in reality. It includes personal fieldwork research in selected countries and puts light on the political, socio-economic and environmental dimension of the topic. Based upon these insights, the study gives recommendations for a more enhanced, interdisciplinary understanding and protection of TCEs. Latin America is (still) rich of cultural traditions and bio- and sociodiversity. This region is the cradle of the intern...

Private Enforcement of Competition Law
The private enforcement of competition law through damages actions and/or injunctions before ordinary courts of justice is currently the preferred system in the United States. It is playing an increasingly important role in Europe by supplementing a still predominantly public system based on disciplinary rules enforced by public authorities that do not entail compensation for victims. Compensation can only be achieved through private enforcement, which is already viewed as an alternative to the public system. This work, whose origins lie in the International Conference on the private enforcement of Competition Law held at the University of Valladolid's School of Law offers a comprehensive, p...

As Licenças Compulsórias de Direitos de Propriedade Industrial
Numa área ditada pela distribuição de monopólios privados, a licença compulsória surge como um pêndulo do regime jurídico, contrabalançando o interesse dos inventores (ou inovadores) com o interesse público. A sua mera existência e possibilidade de aplicação encerra, per si, um significado próprio, que é o de permitir que o sistema implementado pelo direito de propriedade industrial seja um meio de progresso das Sociedades, gerando uma dinâmica de desenvolvimento e prosperidade. Este estudo, por ser uma obra académica, reveste especial interesse para todos os juristas que lidam com o direito da propriedade industrial. Adicionalmente, este estudo afigura-se importante para todos os outros profissionais da área, como são o caso de engenheiros de patentes. Estudar o regime de licenças compulsórias é, afinal, pensar o próprio sistema de direito de propriedade industrial.
