Efficiency, Sustainability, and Justice to Future Generations

  • Categories: Law

Fifty years after the famous essay “The Problem of Social Cost” (1960) by the Nobel laureate Ronald Coase, Law and Economics seems to have become the lingua franca of American jurisprudence, and although its influence on European jurisprudence is only moderate by comparison, it has also gained popularity in Europe. A highly influential publication of a different nature was the Brundtland Report (1987), which extended the concept of sustainability from forestry to the whole of the economy and society. According to this report, development is sustainable when it “meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. A key requir...

India’s Africa Policy

The book analyses how India’s rise to the status of an emerging power has affected New Delhi’s Africa policy, after sketching the historical evolution and normative underpinnings of Indo-African relations, and what challenges it has brought for New Delhi’s engagement with the continent.

The country regularly extends lines of credit worth billions to African nations, and its pharmaceutical producers dominate many African markets; almost one-fifth of India’s oil imports and more than one-quarter of its natural gas imports come from the conti...

  • Publisher: Springer

This book sheds new light on the history of the philosophically crucial notion of intentionality, which accounts for one of the most distinctive aspects of our mental life: the fact that our thoughts are about objects. Intentionality is often described as a certain kind of relation. Focusing on Franz Brentano, who introduced the notion into contemporary philosophy, and on the Aristotelian tradition, which was Brentano’s main source of inspiration, the book reveals a rich history of debate on precisely the relational nature of intentionality. It shows that Brentano and the Aristotelian authors from which he drew not only addressed the question whether intentionality is a relation, but also ...

Die Wissensordnung

Im Gegensatz zur Rechts- und Wirtschaftsordnung hat die dritte Grundord nung moderner Gesellschaften - die Wissensordnung - noch nicht die erfor derliche Aufmerksamkeit erhalten, obwohl hier die entscheidenden Entwick lungen im Überschneidungsbereich von Wissen & Technik zusammenlaufen und viele der gegenwärtig kontrovers diskutierten Probleme ihren Platz ha ben: von den Meinungs-, Glaubens-, Wissensfreiheiten und Informationsrech ten als Grund- oder Menschenrechten über die Wissenschaftsfreiheit und die wissenschaftliche Verantwortung für die Folgen der Forschung bis zu den tendenziell gegenläufigen Entwicklungen im Datenschutz und im Immaterial güterrecht. Hierzu zählen auch die bre...
