The Human Right to Citizenship
The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the right to citizenship in international and regional human rights law. It critically reflects on the limitations of state sovereignty in nationality matters and situates the right to citizenship within the existing human rights framework. It identifies the scope and content of the right to citizenship by looking not only at statelessness, deprivation of citizenship or dual citizenship, but more broadly at acquisition, loss and enjoyment of citizenship in a migration context. Exploring the intersection of international migration, human rights law and belonging, the book provides a timely argument for recognizing a right to the citizenship of a specific state on the basis of one’s effective connections to that state according to the principle of jus nexi.
Immunity of Heads of State and State Officials for International Crimes
Ramona Pedretti offers, for the first time, a comprehensive assessment of the rules of customary international law relating to immunity of Heads of State and other State officials in the context of crimes pursuant to international law and their relationship with core principles of international law. The book gives the reader a full picture of this topical issue which is located at the heart of today's development of international law. It contains an in-depth evaluation of a vast amount of relevant material, ranging from domestic laws to judicial decisions of domestic and international courts. The fact that the International Law Commission is deliberating the issue with a view to drafting an international treaty underscores the book's importance and timeliness.

Migrationsrecht
Migration ist in Gesellschaft, Politik, Medien und Recht allgegenwärtig. Migrationsrecht stellt dabei den Versuch des Rechts dar, Migrationsvorgänge zu ermöglichen, zu steuern oder zu verhindern. Das nunmehr in fünfter, aktualisierter Auflage vorliegende Lehrbuch dient der Einführung in dieses Rechtsgebiet. Einleitend werden die sozial- und politikwissenschaftlichen Grundlagen, die historische Entwicklung sowie die völker- und verfassungsrechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen des Migrationsrechtes aufgezeigt und durch einen Ausblick auf die Entwicklungen auf europäischer Ebene abgerundet. Daran schliesst sich eine Darstellung der grundlegenden Bereiche des schweizerischen Migrationsrechtes an: das Ausländerrecht nach dem Ausländer- und Integrationsgesetz sowie nach dem Freizügigkeitsabkommen mit der EU und der EFTA, das Flüchtlings- und Asylrecht inklusive der vorübergehenden Schutzgewährung sowie das Dublin-System und das Staatsbürgerschaftsrecht. Abschliessend wird zudem auf die rechtlich nicht geregelte Stellung von Sans-Papiers eingegangen.
Trauma – Flucht – Asyl
Schon seit jeher verlassen Menschen ihre Heimat, um vor Krieg, Gewalt und Zerstörung zu fliehen. Im Moment sind weltweit weit über 65 Millionen Menschen auf der Flucht, weil sie zu Hause von Gewalt, Misshandlung und Tod bedroht sind. Ein Teil dieser Flüchtlinge erreicht auf ihrer Suche nach Sicherheit und Würde Europa und stellt die Aufnahmegesellschaften vor große Herausforderungen. Flüchtlinge werden dabei einer komplizierten Rechtsprozedur, dem Asylverfahren, unterworfen, sollen möglichst rasch die Sprache des Aufnahmelandes erlernen, sich beruflich und kulturell integrieren und einen Beitrag an die Gesellschaft leisten. Ein grosser Teil der Asylsuchenden ist indes schwer traumatis...
Radical Atoms and the Alchemists of Our Time
Ars Electronica has been accompanying and analyzing the digital revolution and its manifold implications since 1979. It has consistently focused and focuses on processes and trends at the interface between art, technology, and society. This artistic-scientific research becomes visible in the form of a festival that is organized every year in Linz (Austria). Its five-day program comprises conferences, panel discussions, workshops, exhibitions, performances, interventions, and concerts. The event is planned, organized, and produced in collaboration with international artists and scientists. Each festival addresses a different volatile future issue. This year it is the "Radical Atoms and the Alchemists of the Future." The volume uses images and texts to sketch this year's edition of the Ars Electronica Festival.

Activism across Borders since 1870
From the Occupy protests to the Black Lives Matter movement and school strikes for climate action, the twenty-first century has been rife with activism. Although very different from one another, each of these movements has created alliances across borders, with activists stressing that their concerns are not confined to individual nation states. In this book, Daniel Laqua shows that global efforts of this kind are not a recent phenomenon, and that as long as there have been borders, activists have sought to cross them. Activism Across Borders since 1870 explores how individuals, groups and organisations have fostered bonds in their quest for political and social change, and considers the imp...
