Prevention and Compensation of Marine Pollution Damage
Marine oil pollution is one of the most damaging environmental liabilities of our time, and is taken very seriously by governments. Although international conventions take the lead in the legal regime underpinning prevention and compensation of marine oil pollution damage, national legal systems differ considerably in how they interpret and apply their monitoring and enforcement responsibilities. This is the first book to present a comparative analysis of the law with respect to marine oil pollution, with expert contributions emphasising particular solutions in Europe, the US, and China. The authors draw on the full range of legal sources, from theory and legislation to procedure and actual ...
Introduction to Spanish Private Law
The topics addressed in this book have traditionally been covered in separate publications on civil and commercial law. This dualism of regimes has made it difficult for students and professionals alike to comprehend Spanish private law as a whole. In the past this has led to inefficient duplication of explanations, gaps in key areas and an altogether fragmented picture. Introduction to Spanish Private Law presents a consolidated, modern, and realistic image of today’s Spanish private legal system. It combines both civil and commercial law and integrates them in the same book, making the overall subject far more accessible to readers. This united approach results in a more logical and effi...
Electrochemically Assisted Remediation of Contaminated Soils
This book provides an overview of the current development status of remediation technologies involving electrochemical processes, which are used to clean up soils that are contaminated with different types of contaminants (organics, inorganics, metalloids and radioactive). Written by internationally recognized experts, it comprises 21 chapters describing the characteristics and theoretical foundations of various electrochemical applications of soil remediation. The book’s opening section discusses the fundamental properties and characteristics of the soil, which are essential to understand the processes that can most effectively remove organic and inorganic compounds. This part also focuse...
Third-Party Liability of Classification Societies
With the worldwide upsurge of lawsuits against classification societies, their liability towards third parties has become one of the most contentious issues in contemporary maritime law. Against this background, the authors analyze potential third-party claims and examine to what extent classification societies may limit their liability. The study highlights the development in Australian, English, French, New Zealand, U.S. and German law.
European Perspectives on the Common European Sales Law
This book presents a complete and coherent view of the subject of Common European Sales Law from a range of European perspectives. The book offers a comparison of the CESL with the CISG, as well as pre-existing instruments, including the Draft Common Frame of Reference (DCFR) and the Principles of European Contract Law (PECL). It analyses the process of enactment of CESL and its scope of application, covering areas such as the sale of goods, the supplying (licensing) of digital content, the supply of trade-related services, and consumer protection. It examines the design of the CESL bifurcating businesses into large and small-to-medium sized enterprises, and the providing of rules covering digital content and the supply of trade-related services. Lastly, it studies the field of application of the CESL combined with the already existing EU consumer protection laws, as well as nation-specific laws.
The Role of Self-determination in the Modernisation of Family Law in Europe

Arbitration in Spain
Arbitration in Spain is designed for two audiences: students of arbitration and practitioners. To some extent the two have different needs, and this book tries to satisfy the requirements of both audiences. For example, many of the contributions provide insight into the parliamentary discussions and proposals which took place at the time when the law was being debated in Congress, and thus offers an historical perspective for the student or arbitration. For the practitioner the book provides a step-by-step approach to the intricate world of Spanish arbitration.
Estudios sobre el Proyecto de Código Europeo de Contratos de la Academia de Pavía
Nadie podría imaginar en 1957, al firmarse el Tratado de Roma, que los Seis se transformarían en Veintisiete -con posibilidad, incluso, de ampliación ulterior-. Pero tampoco ningún jurista europeo podría soñar entonces que, a punto de ratificarse el Tratado de Lisboa, tanto el Code Napoleon, como el Bürgerlichesgesetzbuch, se vean forzados a ceder su puesto de honor a nuevos Códigos europeos. Porque lo cierto es que desde hace más de un cuarto de siglo, grupos de juristas europeos -cada vez más numerosos- vienen trabajando en lograr textos unificados (de obligaciones y contratos, y hasta de todo el Derecho civil) para entrar en vigor en todos los países miembros de la Unión Europ...
Product Liability in Comparative Perspective
This book examines the law of product liability from a comparative perspective. With the European Directive on Product Liability enacted over 20 years ago, this publication analyses the state of product liability in a number of key jurisdictions including both Western European countries and New Member States. Account is also taken of developments further afield, including the United States and Japan. Distinguished contributors, including a high court judge, European Commission official, leading litigators and academics, provide individual country reports and a number of integrated comparative studies. The book is designed for practical use by legal practitioners, academics, students and others interested in the area of contract, tort, civil procedure and multi-party litigation. In particular, practitioners will find the country reports an essential reference point.
La pasión por el bien
Defensora de los derechos de la mujer, de la causa obrera y, muy especialmente, de la necesidad de una reforma penitenciaria que acabara con el hacinamiento y la inseguridad jurídica en la que vivían los presos, Concepción Arenal (1820-1893) es la pensadora más original y lúcida del siglo xix español. A pesar de las limitaciones a las que tuvo que enfrentarse como mujer con una marcada vocación filosófica –en una época todavía muy misógina–, desarrolló un pensamiento que sigue siendo vigente en sus postulados fundamentales. El mayor problema que ofrece su obra, sin embargo, es la dispersión intelectual de sus reflexiones, diseminadas en artículos, ensayos y libros de muy va...
