The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed how far we as a European society still are from the proclaimed Union of Equality. The book explores how the promise of equal treatment can become a reality and compliance with the EU acquis relating to equality and non-discrimination can be improved. It studies enforcement and promotion aspects of the two watershed directives of 2000, the Racial Equality Directive 2000/43/EC and the Employment Equality Directive 2000/78/EC, through the lens of reflexive governance. This governance approach is proposed as having great potential in enhancing the likelihood of sustainability (or continuation) of reforms in the current candidate countries and EU Member States t...
This insightful book thoroughly examines how the EU’s return acquis is inspired by, and integrates, international migration and human rights law. It also explores how this body of EU law has shaped international law-making relating to the removal of non-nationals.
This Research Handbook provides a panoramic guide to the study and research of EU citizenship and its development within a challenging environment characterised by restrictive access to social benefits, Brexit, Euroscepticism and Covid-19. It combines theoretical perspectives with analyses of both the existing and future rights, duties and social protection that EU citizens ought to enjoy in a democratic and principled European Union.
The first interdisciplinary empirically-grounded pluri-jurisdictional assessment of the origins, operation and main causes of the growing global investment migration trend.
This volume of the Netherlands Yearbook of International Law (NYIL) is the fiftieth in the Series, which means that the NYIL has now been with us for half a century. The editors decided not to let this moment go by unnoticed, but to devote this year’s edition to an analysis of the phenomenon of yearbooks in international law. Once the decision was made that this would be the subject of this year’s NYIL, the editors asked themselves a number of questions. For instance: Not many academic disciplines have yearbooks, so what is the reason we do? What is the added value of having a yearbook alongside the abundance of international law journals, regular monographs and edited volumes that are p...
More than 400 films and 150 television series have featured time travel--stories of rewriting history, lovers separated by centuries, journeys to the past or the (often dystopian) future. This book examines some of the roles time travel plays on screen in science fiction and fantasy. Plot synopses and credits are listed for films and TV series from England, Canada, the UK and Japan, as well as for TV and films from elsewhere in the world. Tropes and plot elements are highlighted. The author discusses philosophical questions about time travel, such as the logic of timelines, causality (what's to keep time-travelers from jumping back and correcting every mistake?) and morality (if you correct a mistake, are you still guilty of it?).
The Hungarian Yearbook of International Law and European Law comprises a collection of articles written mainly by Hungarian authors, covering developments in the field of international law and EU law, and progress in the domestic implementation and application of these fields of law. The thematic chapter of Vol. 11 (2023) deals with the past, present, and future of Union citizenship, while the Anniversary section is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the foundation of the International Law Association (ILA) Hungarian Branch. Vol. 11 (2023) contains a special chapter dedicated to the international protection of minorities, which we hope will become a permanent chapter in the Hungarian Yearbook. The Yearbook also contains numerous articles on new developments in European law and international law, Hungarian state practice, case notes and book reviews. The Yearbook offers a comprehensive picture of the state of application and implementation of international law and EU law in Hungary. This publication was supported by Pallas Athéné Domus Meriti Alapítvány.
Hannes Rösler nimmt die Überlastung des Gerichtshofs der Europäischen Union und die wachsende Kritik der Privatrechtswissenschaft an dessen Rechtsprechung zum Anlass, der Zusammenarbeit zwischen mitgliedstaatlichen und europäischen Gerichten mitsamt ihren institutionellen, rechtsstaatlichen und föderalen Strukturprinzipen erstmals eine breit angelegte Arbeit zu widmen. Dazu werden Erkenntnisse aus Politikwissenschaft, Soziologie und Ökonomie fruchtbar gemacht und die Nutzung des Vorabentscheidungsverfahrens durch die nationalen Gerichte empirisch ausgewertet. Hannes Rösler spricht sich für den Ausbau und für eine Spezialisierung der Unionsgerichtsbarkeit aus. Außerdem analysiert er den Einfluss der nationalen Prozessrechts- und Justizordnungen auf die Anwendung des Unionsrechts in den Mitgliedstaaten, die Anforderungen an die Effektivität des Unionsrechtsschutzes und die Notwendigkeit weiterer Harmonisierung des Internationalen Privat- und Zivilverfahrensrechts.

Az emberi jogok eszménye, ahogyan ma ismerjük, döntő mértékben a nyugati civilizációhoz kötődik, amelynek mai képét különböző impulzusok formálták. E szellemi, világnézeti és intézményi összetevők közé tartozik az antik világ görög filozófiai, zsidó vallási és római jogi öröksége, továbbá az egyetemességre törekvő keresztény etika, valamint az ész uralma mellett elkötelezett felvilágosodás és ennek nyomán a klasszikus liberalizmus eszmeisége. Ezek a vallási és szekuláris gyökerű, illetve indíttatású hatások vezettek az egyik legfontosabb európai vívmány, az elidegeníthetetlen emberi jogok koncepciójának a megszületéséhez....
