Our Family
Christoph Wuest/Weist was born in Germany in 1800. He married Magdalena Schroth and they were the parents of ten children. They had nine children when they immigrated to America and settled in Ohio. Information on many of their descendants who now live in Florida, Ohio, California, Utah and elsewhere, is included in this volume. Some members of this family are now members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Shipping and Globalization in the Post-War Era
This open access book belongs to the Maritime Business and Economic History strand of the Palgrave Studies in Maritime Economics book series. This volume highlights the contribution of the shipping industry to the transformations in business and society of the postwar era. Shipping was both an example and an engine of globalization and structural change. In turn, the industry experienced and pioneered, mirrored and enabled key developments that led to the present-day globalized economy. Contributions address issues such as the macro-level shift of shipping’s centre of gravity from Europe to Asia, the political and legal frameworks within which it developed, the strategies and performance of both successful and unsuccessful firms, and the links between the shipping industry and the wider economy and society. Without shipping and its ability to forge connections and networks of a global reach, the modern world would look very different. By bringing together scholars from various disciplinary and national backgrounds, this book advances our understanding of the linkages that bind economies and societies together.
The Law of Political Economy
"Political economy themes have - directly and indirectly - been a central concern of law and legal scholarship ever since political economy emerged as a concept in the early seventeenth century, a development which was re-inforced by the emergence of political economy as an independent area of scholarly enquiry in the eighteenth century, as developed by the French physiocrats. This is not surprising in so far as the core institutions of the economy and economic exchanges, such as property and contract, are legal institutions.In spite of this intrinsic link, political economy discourses and legal discourses dealing with political economy themes unfold in a largely separate manner. Indeed, this book is also a reflection of this, in so far as its core concern is how the law and legal scholarship conceive of and approach political economy issues"--
The Oxford Handbook of International Law in Europe
This handbook provides a comprehensive account of how international law is understood and practiced in Europe, which is defined for the purposes of the book as Council of Europe countries, in the past and in the present. It is separated into parts covering Europe's values, intellectual traditions, and institutions, as well as examinations of European countries and regions. A diverse group of leading scholars and practitioners of international law are led by three overarching focus points: the success and failures of the pacifying effect of international law, the diversity of international legal experiences and traditions within Europe, and the impact of European ideas on international law globally. By examining these areas, the book also analyses Europe's changing role in the world, and the impact of global influences on the understanding of international law in European countries. The book is a study of regionalism in international law, but also a study of the impact of a region which, at least historically, has had an overwhelming influence on the development and interpretations of international law.
Aviation Law and Governance
Exploring the intricate relationship between law, economics, and global politics, this book examines the regulatory environment of the aviation industry. Tracing the historical development of aviation law, the book has a particular focus on how economic polycentrism and the liberal international economic order have influenced the sector's regulatory framework. It discusses the aviation industry's responses to unforeseen global events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical conflicts, providing a detailed analysis of the legal mechanisms that ensure industry stability and resilience. Key topics include the role of arbitration in resolving disputes, the impact of international regulati...
Migration and Development in Southern Europe and South America
This book explores the linkages between Southern Europe and South America in the post-World War II period, through organized migration and development policies. In the post-war period, regulated migration was widely considered in the West as a route to development and modernization. Southern European and Latin American countries shared this hegemonic view and adopted similar policies, strategies, and patterns, which also served to promote their integration into the Western bloc. This book showcases how overpopulated Southern European countries viewed emigration as a solution for high unemployment and poverty, whereas huge and underpopulated South American developing countries such as Brazil ...
Extraterritorialität
Ist das interdisziplinare Phanomen der extraterritorialen Praxis eine legitime Rechtsbildung? Wie lasst sich dieses Phanomen unter Beachtung der hoheitlichen extraterritorialen Anordnung und der Entstehung durch richterliche Rechtsfortbildung im transnationalen Raum und in aktuellen Globalisierungsprozessen verorten? Claudia Kurkin analysiert die weltweit signifikante unilaterale Praxis unter Auswertung des angloamerikanischen Schrifttums. Sie entwickelt auf der Grundlage der im Forum der Generalversammlung der Vereinten Nationen beschlossenen Sustainable Development Goals einen methodischen Losungsvorschlag. Seine konsequente Anwendung kann ermoglichen, die bisweilen feindselige extraterritoriale Praxis gegenuber anderen Staaten, der Staatengemeinschaft und Privatrechtssubjekten an weltweit anschlussfahige und praktikable Parameter anzubinden, um faire und transparente Ergebnisse sowie nachhaltiges Recht zu schaffen.
Informationsverwaltungsrecht
"Informationsverwaltungsrecht" bezeichnet weder ein neues Teilgebiet des Besonderen Verwaltungsrechts noch eine spezifische Umakzentuierung des Allgemeinen Verwaltungsrechts. Angesprochen ist damit vielmehr das Verwaltungsrecht unter den Bedingungen der modernen, globalisierten Wissensgesellschaft. Das Informationsverwaltungsrecht ist in diesem Sinne ein Recht, das sich reflexiv auf die wechselweise Beeinflussung seiner normativen und seiner kognitiven Dimension einstellt und es unternimmt, diesen Vorgang aktiv zu gestalten: als die rechtliche Anleitung einer angemessenen Informationsverarbeitung der Administrative, die zugleich zur rechtsinternen Wissenskonstruktion beiträgt und damit als prozedurales Gesamtarrangement eine neue Form von Entscheidungsfindung qua Rechtsanwendung ermöglicht. Ino Augsberg skizziert die wesentlichen theoretischen und dogmatischen Konsequenzen, die aus dieser Ausgangslage folgen.
Hybride und Chimären
English summary: Hybrid embryos consisting of human cells and a cow's egg cell, apes with humanised brains, a pig's heart in a human chest - biologists' chimeric creations of the most diverse mix of what is human and what is animal forces us to rethink what a human is and where the distinction between humans and animals lies. German description: Markus Lackermair widmet sich biomedizinischer Forschung, mit der Misch-Lebewesen aus Mensch und Tier erzeugt werden. So versuchen etwa Neurowissenschaftler, durch den Transfer menschlicher Gene die Gehirne von Tieren gezielt zu humanisieren. Ebenso motiviert der Mangel an menschlichen Spenderorganen die Transplantationsmedizin dazu, das Forschungsfe...
