The Human Right to Health
This timely book offers a fresh perspective on how to effectively address the issue of unequal access to healthcare. It analyses the human right to health from the underexplored legal principle of solidarity, proposing a non-commercial understanding of the positive obligations inherent in the right to health.
Immigration Detention and Human Rights
Practices of immigration detention are largely resistant to conventional forms of legal correction because contemporary liberal democracies justify these practices with an appeal to their territorial sovereignty, a concept that thwarts the very communicability of individual interests in modern constitutionalism. However, this book argues that human rights in the specific context of immigration detention can function as “destabilisation rights”, subjecting to full legal scrutiny those claims that the national state presents as predominantly based on its territorial sovereignty. The resulting destabilisation of territorial sovereignty in both domestic and international constitutionalism will have ramifications for a number of instruments of migration control, the perceived necessity and legitimacy of which is almost exclusively based on the self-referential notion of territorial sovereignty.
Human Rights in Times of Transition
This timely book explores the extent to which national security has affected the intersection between human rights and the exercise of state power. It examines how liberal democracies, long viewed as the proponents and protectors of human rights, have transformed their use of human rights on the global stage, externalizing their own internal agendas.
Fundamental Rights
This textbook explains the protection by the ECHR, EU law and international instruments of various civil/political and social/economic fundamental rights.
The Right to Do Wrong
Common morality—in the form of shame, outrage, and stigma—has always been society’s first line of defense against ethical transgressions. Social mores crucially complement the law, Mark Osiel shows, sparing us from oppressive formal regulation. Much of what we could do, we shouldn’t—and we don’t. We have a free-speech right to be offensive, but we know we will face outrage in response. We may declare bankruptcy, but not without stigma. Moral norms constantly demand more of us than the law requires, sustaining promises we can legally break and preventing disrespectful behavior the law allows. Mark Osiel takes up this curious interplay between lenient law and restrictive morality, ...
The Law and Practice of Extradition
The Law and Practice of Extradition provides an in-depth overview of extradition law and practice, providing students with an understanding of how key elements have been shaped by the state, the fugitive and the international community. The process of globalisation has offered huge opportunities for organised crime, both in terms of expansion of operations and the possibility to evade justice, confronting states with considerable challenges. The Law and Practice of Extradition addresses all key topics in this fast-evolving area, including extradition and international crimes, terrorism and human rights. This textbook is particularly suitable for master's and post-doctoral students with a basic background knowledge of international law, criminal law and international relations, and will interest legal practitioners who seek a better understanding of extradition.
Vertrauen in Europa
Der EuGH erkennt heute im gegenseitigen Vertrauen zwischen den Mitgliedstaaten einen tragenden Rechtsgrundsatz des Unionsrechts. Elena Marie Kullak zeichnet die Rechtsprechungsentwicklung anhand von Referenzgebieten nach und beleuchtet Grund und Grenzen des gegenseitigen Vertrauens näher. Auf der Grundlage einer Rekonstruktion anhand des primärrechtlichen Wertekatalogs und einer Bestimmung verschiedener flankierender Maßnahmen deutet sie das gegenseitige Vertrauen als einen gehaltvollen europäischen Verfassungsgrundsatz, der zur horizontalen Konstitutionalisierung im Verfassungsverbund beiträgt. Der Grundsatz strukturiert nicht nur horizontale Kooperationsregime, sondern trägt auch zur Stärkung der föderativen Ordnung der Europäischen Union durch Einheit stiftende und Vielfalt wahrende Komponenten bei.Die Arbeit wurde mit dem Konrad-Redeker-Preis 2020 ausgezeichnet.

Fundamental Rights in the EU Area of Freedom, Security and Justice
The development of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice has transformed the European Union and placed fundamental rights at the core of EU integration and its principles of mutual recognition and trust. The impact of the AFSJ in the development of an EU standard of fundamental rights, which has come to the fore since the Treaty of Lisbon, is a topic of great theoretical and practical importance. This is the first systematic academic study of the AFSJ and its implications from the point of view of fundamental rights. The contributions to this collection examine the normative and jurisprudential development of the AFSJ in order to assess its effects on the overall construction of the scope and standards of protection of EU fundamental rights in this particularly complex and sensitive field of integration. The expert contributors systematically map and critically assess this area of EU law, together with the relevant case-law.
