European Integration Perspectives in Times of Global Crises
With the White Paper on the Future of Europe, the European Commission had launched a debate on fundamental reforms of the Union structures in 2017. A total of five reform scenarios ranged from a reduction and focusing of the Union’s competences to increased integration in the sense of a United States of Europe. However, the White Paper did not have any consequences; none of the reform scenarios presented was implemented. However, current global challenges in the areas of health, climate change and energy resources as well as the shift in the global balance of power and related security issues demonstrate the increasing importance of a strong and united Europe. The idea of an “ever closer union”, as laid down in the preamble of the 1992 EU Treaty, could experience a renaissance. Against this background, the 13th Network Europe Conference addressed the importance of the integration project in times of global crises and the challenges in various policy areas, as well as the EU’s relations with its eastern and southern neighbors and its role vis-à-vis global actors such as China and Russia. This publication contains the conference contributions.
Current Challenges of European Integration
Crises are not a new phenomenon in the context of European integration. Additional integration steps could often only be achieved under the pressure of crises. At present, however, the EU is characterised by multiple crises, so that the integration process as a whole is sometimes being questioned. In 2015, the crisis in the eurozone had escalated to such an extent that for the first time a member state was threatened to leave the eurozone. Furthermore, the massive influx of refugees into the EU has revealed the shortcomings of the Schengen area and the common asylum policy. Finally, with the majority vote of the British in the referendum of 23 June 2016 in favour of the Brexit, the withdrawal of a member state became a reality for the first time. Even in the words of the European Commission, the EU has reached a crossroads. Against this background, the twelfth Network Europe conference included talks on the numerous challenges and future integration scenarios in Europe.
VAG/AVO Revision - Evolution oder Revolution?
Reflektieren die am 18. März 2022 verabschiedete Vorlage zur Teilrevision des Versicherungsaufsichtsgesetzes (VAG) sowie der am 17. Mai 2022 publizierte Entwurf zur Teilrevision der Aufsichtsverordnung (AVO) eine graduelle Entwicklung oder einen tief(er)greifenden Umbruch? Eine Evolution oder eine Revolution? Lassen sich derartige Phänomene und Schattierungen dazwischen in der vorliegenden Revision des VAG und der AVO identifizieren? Antworten auf diese Fragestellungen zu finden, war Gegenstand einer Tagung des Europa Instituts an der Universität Zürich am 25. August 2022. Verschiedene Mitwirkende haben in Teilbereichen nach Antworten gesucht. Um die so gewonnenen Erkenntnisse einer weiteren Leserschaft zugänglich zu machen, liegen nun auf den Vorträgen beruhende Artikel und Berichte über die beiden Diskussionsrunden im vorliegenden Tagungsband vor.
Checklist of Painters from 1200-1994
The Witt Library of the Courtauld Institute of Art, London, is one of the world's greatest art history libraries. It contains some 1.7 million illustrations of the work of painters, draughtsmen, and engravers of the Western tradition, all of whom have been indexed by name, dates, and nationality. This new second edition of the Checklist of Painters is a transcription of the Witt index as it currently exists. The names of 66,000 artists, their dates, and their nationality (or school) are reproduced in alphabetical order. The Checklist of Painters is probably the most exhaustive work of its kind in existence; it now lists all painters (known by art historians) to have lived and worked from the year 1200 to 1994. It will be an important reference text in the art history collection of any public, academic, or professional library.
Aktuelle Fragen zum schweizerischen und internationalen Kapitalmarktrecht
Der vorliegende Tagungsband „Kapitalmarkt – Recht und Transaktionen“ legt den Schwerpunkt wie jedes Jahr auf aktuelle Entwicklungen im Finanz- und Kapitalmarktrecht unter besonderer Berücksichtigung von Transaktionen in diesem Bereich. Das Jahr 2021 stand noch immer unter dem Eindruck der Corona-Pandemie, war aber auch geprägt durch dynamische technologische Weiterentwicklung sowie die noch immer fortschreitende Zunahme der Regulierung. Die Beiträge im vorliegenden Tagungsband befassen sich mit dem für die Schweiz neuen Phänomen der SPACS (special purpose acquisition companies), Lombardkrediten und Margin Calls, Streitigkeiten mit ESG-Bezug, der FIDLEG-Umsetzung im Bereich Corporate Finance, Neuerungen bei der Emittentenregulierung, der LIBOR Ablösung sowie dem neuen Institut des Kapitalbandes im revidierten Aktienrecht.
