This book explores fundamental topics concerning the functioning of the judiciary. The authors – class scholars, international judges and jurists from a diverse range of countries – address general theoretical issues in connection with judicial power, the role and functioning of international courts, international standards concerning the organization of national judiciaries, and the role of domestic courts in international relations, as well as alternative means of settling disputes. The book contributes a novel and valuable global perspective on burning issues, especially on judicial power and independence in a time in which illiberal and authoritarian regimes are constantly seeking to diminish the role of the judiciary.

La 4e de couverture indique : "András Sajó is one of the most distinguished scholars in the field of comparative constitutional law. The present volume is a collection of studies written in his honour by distinguished scholars from many countries. Constitutional democracies evolve and this evolution is speeding up. As a result, constitutional law is undergoing a rapid and substantial evolution. One of the main developments is the ongoing process of its Europeanization and internationalization. This book aims to present and explain these recent transformations. It gives a comprehensive overview of issues that arise in the context of the Europeanization and internationalization of constitutional law. It will be of interest not only to scholars and students in law and political science but to all persons who are interested in the developments of constitutional democracies."
"The present volume contains the majority of national reports on social and economic rights prepared for the 19th International Congress of Comparative Law which was held in Vienna on 20-26 July 2014. All reports have been updated following the discussions at the Congress. The national reports are based on a questionnaire but do not all follow the same format. Each report gives an overview of various legal questions connected withthe protection of social and economic rights in a particular country. The book as a whole shows the difficulties in the implementation of social rights. This work is of interest not only to academics interested in the field of comparative law but also to legal practitioners active in the field of social and economic rights."--Page 4 de la couverture.
