Constitutional Change in the European Union
Europe’s future is contested between those who want to integrate further, those who prefer things to stay as they are, and those who would retreat into nationalism. These divisions impair the government of the European Union and weaken its ability to shoulder more responsibility for its unstable neighbourhood. This open access book analyses the EU’s evolving constitution, arguing that the lack of effective federal government lies at the heart of its problems. It recommends reforms for each EU institution, including those involving treaty change. It makes the case for a unified executive, a more legitimate legislature, and the introduction of a federal treasury and supreme court. It proposes a fresh category of affiliate membership underpinned by a new European security council that would overcome the historic division between the EU and NATO. The book is essential reading for practitioners and students of European integration.
European Integration and the Crisis of Social Democracy
This is a book about European integration and mainstream parties of the left, the main underlying question driving it being: Given that the communist left was fatally wounded by the collapse of the Berlin Wall; given that, since then, the terms ‘left’ and ‘right’ have not infrequently been attacked (especially by populists) as being no longer useful for making sense of politics; given that social democracy, understood as ‘national Keynesianism’ no longer appears to be viable (as reflected in its long-term electoral decline), what does it mean to be on the left in the early 21st century and what can be done to revive its fortunes? Its answer is that being on the left means embracing principles of equality and international solidarity, and that since the nation state is too small to respond effectively to climate change and the other most pressing issues of the present, no viable strategy for left-wing revival in Europe can dispense with European integration as a central element, of which European democratisation is a core component.
Wombs in Labor
Surrogacy is India's new form of outsourcing, as couples from all over the world hire Indian women to bear their children for a fraction of the cost of surrogacy elsewhere with little to no government oversight or regulation. In the first detailed ethnography of India's surrogacy industry, Amrita Pande visits clinics and hostels and speaks with surrogates and their families, clients, doctors, brokers, and hostel matrons in order to shed light on this burgeoning business and the experiences of the laborers within it. From recruitment to training to delivery, Pande's research focuses on how reproduction meets production in surrogacy and how this reflects characteristics of India's larger labor...
Rapports sociaux de sexe-genre et droit
"Bien que le système juridique et le droit aient été et continuent d'être source d'oppression pour les femmes partout sur la planète, elles se sont battues au cours des siècles pour l'obtention de droits et ont eu recours aux tribunaux. Sans la reconnaissance de droits, les femmes ne pouvaient aspirer à l'autonomie. Pourtant, malgré l'obtention de nombreux droits, les femmes sont aujourd'hui encore victimes de discrimination. Le système juridique est souvent à l'origine de ces discriminations. Que ce soit dans la sphère privée ou publique, des programmes étatiques, des lois ou des décisions des tribunaux rendent les femmes invisibles ou portent atteinte à leur droit à l'égal...
Diccionario de Derecho Procesal Constitucional y Convencional, tercera edición, 1001 voces
Esta obra reúne el esfuerzo conjunto de 390 autoras y autores de 26 nacionalidades alrededor del mundo, lo que permite una visión integral de la ciencia del Derecho Procesal Constitucional, desde distintas latitudes. Está dirigida a las nuevas y futuras generaciones de estudiosos de la materia, a las y los estudiantes, profesores, abogados, jueces y, en general, a los operadores jurídicos que a través de su labor coadyuvan a la eficacia de los derechos humanos y al fortalecimiento de la democracia y el Estado constitucional de derecho. Al encontrarnos en el marco del centenario del Primer Tribunal Constitucional de Austria de 1920, que tuvo una amplía influencia en nuestro continente y que significó un punto de partida científico dentro de la entonces nueva disciplina denominada Derecho Procesal Constitucional, este resulta un momento inmejorable para su publicación, pues nos invita a la discusión progresiva sobre los desafíos que enfrentan actualmente las magistraturas constitucionales especializadas en materia de derechos humanos, así como en su tarea de la defensa de la Constitución, bajo el paradigma del Derecho Internacional de los Derechos Humanos.

A Incapacidade Eleitoral Ativa das Pessoas com Deficiência Mental à Luz da Constituição
O sufrágio é, hoje, universal. Assim o diz a Constituição. Mas é também a própria Constituição que lhe admite restrições. Estribadas, justamente, nessa habilitação constitucional, as nossas Leis Eleitorais estabelecem, uma vez cumpridos certos requisitos, a incapacidade eleitoral ativa das pessoas com deficiência mental. Ora, atendendo ao que resulta da Convenção sobre os Direitos das Pessoas com Deficiência - Tratado Internacional de que Portugal é signatário – será mesmo de restringir o direito de voto das pessoas com deficiência mental? E caso se assuma essa restrição, em que termos e com que limites? Estarão as nossas Leis Eleitorais em consonância, nesta matéria, com os princípios fundamentais plasmados na Constituição? São algumas das perguntas a que aqui se procura dar resposta.
The Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the science related to climate change. It provides policymakers with regular assessments of the scientific basis of human-induced climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation. This IPCC Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate is the most comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of the observed and projected changes to the ocean and cryosphere and their associated impacts and risks, with a focus on resilience, risk management response options, and adaptation measures, considering both their potential and limitations. It brings together knowledge on physical and biogeochemical changes, the interplay with ecosystem changes, and the implications for human communities. It serves policymakers, decision makers, stakeholders, and all interested parties with unbiased, up-to-date, policy-relevant information. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
