Dictatorship, Democracy, and Transitional Justice in Global Legal History
The anthology presents the lectures given on the symposium »From Dictatorship to democracy« at the House of the Wannsee Conference on 13–14 September 2021. The aim of the organizers was to show what problems existed during the transition from dictatorship to democracy in several countries around the world. They all enacted laws or other measures to ensure that fundamental rights and the rule of law would resist anti-democratic ideologies, anti-Semitism, racism, and war crimes in the future. However, the legal system and law in these countries themselves often had their origins in dictatorship. Thus, there were and are obvious and hidden anti-democratic continuities that influence law and the legal system up to the present. Scientifics and jurists from Italy, Japan, Poland, Spain, South Africa, and Germany examine these continuities in their contributions.
Law in the context of disciplines
English summary: The interaction between legal scholarship, legal practice and social theory forms a crucial question of interdisciplinary research. The necessity and the limitations of such an interaction were the central subject of the 'foundations of law' panel's proceedings during the 2013 Marburg Congress of the German Association of Comparative Law. To begin with, the practice in the large centers of the USA, Europe and Japan was subjected to a legal comparative examination. In addition to that, exemplary cross-sections, or, accordingly, longitudinal intersections, were taken into consideration - for example, cartel law as an area where there are lively interdisciplinary approaches, or...
Precedents as Rules and Practice
Präjudizien haben heute in den unterschiedlichsten Rechtssystemen eine erhebliche Bedeutung für die juristische Entscheidungsfindung. Umso mehr besteht daher das Bedürfnis, deren Entstehungsbedingungen und deren tatsächlichen Einfluss auf die Praxis zu verstehen. Neben dogmatischen Arbeiten wurden in den letzten Jahren vermehrt Studien publiziert, die mit empirischen Methoden sowie sozialwissenschaftlichen Perspektiven der Praxis nationaler wie auch internationaler Gerichte näherkommen wollten. Das gab Anlass verschiedene theoriebezogene wie auch empirische Forschungszugänge, die im Zuge einer Konferenz präsentiert wurden, gemeinsam in einem Buch zu verbinden. So bietet das Buch unter anderem eine Analyse des Einflusses der linguistischen Praxis auf die Entscheidungsbegründungen des EuGH, die Erstellung eines Zitationsnetzwerks sowie ganz generell die Diskussion über den Wert neuer Methoden und Perspektiven in der Arbeit mit und der Forschung zu Präjudizien.

From Formal to Material Equality
Equality has been seen as the core of any quest of justice since Aristotle's Nicomachian Ethics. Reaching not only situational equality, but equality in status, however, had not been achieved until modern times. The father of ethics and his systematic enquiry into the concept of justice did not have any problems with foreigners without rights, women as second-class citizens and enslaving people - nor did antiquity at large, medieval era or even the high renaissance. While suum cuique (treating equal issues equally and unequal issues unequally) had been in place since antiquity and Cicero, personal status still had to wait to be recognised as a target of equality concerns. Related to this, no...
The Theory and Practice of Online Learning
"Neither an academic tome nor a prescriptive 'how to' guide, The Theory and Practice of Online Learning is an illuminating collection of essays by practitioners and scholars active in the complex field of distance education. Distance education has evolved significantly in its 150 years of existence. For most of this time, it was an individual pursuit defined by infrequent postal communication. But recently, three more developmental generations have emerged, supported by television and radio, teleconferencing, and computer conferencing. The early 21st century has produced a fifth generation, based on autonomous agents and intelligent, database-assisted learning, that has been referred to as Web 2.0. The second edition of "The Theory and Practice of Online Learning" features updates in each chapter, plus four new chapters on current distance education issues such as connectivism and social software innovations."--BOOK JACKET.
The Crown and Its Records
Archives are popularly seen as liminal, obscure spaces -- a perception far removed from the early modern reality. This examination of the central English archival system in the period before 1700 highlights the role played by the public records repositories in furnishing precedents for the constitutional struggle between Crown and Parliament. It traces the deployment of archival research in these controversies by three individuals who were at various points occupied with the keeping of records: Sir Robert Cotton, John Selden, and William Prynne. The book concludes by investigating the secretive State Paper Office, home of the arcana imperii, and its involvement in the government's intelligence network: notably the engagement of its most prominent Keeper Sir Thomas Wilson in judicial and political intrigue on behalf of the Crown.
Comparative Law as Transnational Law
This book assembles the works of scholars from around the world, forming a contextual demonstration of the increasing encounters and tensions among legal cultures. In offering different approaches to an understanding of transnational law, the chapters also bring out the important consequences of a more global outlook in legal scholarship, legal practice, and legal education.
