This is the first volume of The Max Planck Handbooks of European Public Law. Volume I: The Administrative State frames the administrative regimes of Europe in a comparative perspective, analysing the evolution of state and administration of major European jurisdictions, and examining issues that cut across national boundaries.
The European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages has been in force since 1998, but in France it has caused a heated debate and it has not been ratified. The questions raised include: should French regional languages be afforded protection? Is there a danger that their protection could lead to an assertion of regional identity that could threaten the cohesiveness of the state? Is there a threat to the official language? Can applying the principles of the charter, without going through the ratification process, effectively protect regional or minority languages? This colloquy sought to provide answers to these questions.
Mit dem Europäischen Verwaltungsrecht behandelt das Werk eine dynamische und wenig übersichtliche Rechtsmaterie, deren dogmatische Durchdringung noch am Anfang steht. Aufbauend auf einer rechtsvergleichenden Grundlegung werden in einem ersten Schritt die Grundlagen des Europäischen Verwaltungsrechts systematisch dargestellt. In zwei zentralen Kapiteln werden sodann das Eigenverwaltungsrecht und das Gemeinschaftsverwaltungsrecht mit ihren spezifischen Zielsetzungen und Prägungen erfasst und dogmatisch strukturiert. Auf der Grundlage einer umfassenden und aktuellen Auswertung der einschlägigen Rechtsprechung des Gerichtshofs werden die Erscheinungsformen und systematischen Zusammenhänge der Rechtsmaterie ebenso wie ihre konkrete Relevanz für die Rechtspraxis herausgearbeitet.

The Max Planck Handbooks in European Public Law series describes and analyses the public law of the European legal space, an area that encompasses not only the law of the European Union but also the European Convention on Human Rights and, importantly, the domestic public laws of European states. Recognizing that the ongoing vertical and horizontal processes of European integration make legal comparison the task of our time for both scholars and practitioners, it aims to foster the development of a specifically European legal pluralism and to contribute to the legitimacy and efficiency of European public law. The first volume of the series begins this enterprise with an appraisal of the evol...
The "European Yearbook" promotes the scientific study of nineteen European supranational organisations, including the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Each volume contains a detailed survey of the history, structure and yearly activities of each organisation and an up-to-date chart providing a clear overview of the member states of each organisation. In addition, a number of articles on topics of general interest are included in each volume. A general index by subject and name, and a cumulative index of all the articles which have appeared in the "Yearbook," are included in every volume and provide direct access to the "Yearbook"'s subject matter. Each volume contains a comprehensive bibliography covering the year's relevant publications. This is an indispensable work of reference for anyone dealing with the European institutions.
María José Falcón y Tella invites us on a fascinating journey through the world of law and literature, travelling through the different eras and exploring eternal and as such current issues such as justice, power, resistance, vengeance, rights, and duties. This is an unending conversation, which brings us back to Sophocles and Dickens, Cervantes and Kafka, Dostoyevsky and Melville, among many others. There are many ways to approach the concept of “Law and Literature”. In the classical manner, the author distinguishes three paths: the Law of Literature, involving a technical approach to the literary theme; Law as Literature, a hermeneutical and rhetorical approach to examining legal texts; and finally, Law in Literature, which is undoubtedly the most fertile and documented perspective (the fundamental part of the work focusses on this direction). This timely volume offers an introduction to this enormous field of study, which was born in the United States over a century ago and is currently taking root in the European continent.
La Charte européenne des langues régionales ou minoritaires et son mécanisme de suivi sont en vigueur depuis 1998, et la Charte a désormais sa place dans l'acquis conventionnel du Conseil de l'Europe. En France, cependant, l'interruption du processus de ratification de la Charte à la suite d'une décision du Conseil constitutionnel a suscité un vif débat. Faut-il protéger les langues régionales en France ? Comment la position de la France au sujet de la Charte doit-elle être comprise à la lumière de la progression des ratifications, y compris par la majorité des pays actuels membres de l'Union européenne ?
A multiplicação de pólos de decisão na Administração Pública e a diversidade de níveis, territoriais e institucionais, traduzem-se num pluralismo de interesses e de legitimidades, pressupondo formas de articulação e de cooperação, entre as quais se integram os contratos interadministrativos. Os contratos interadministrativos - entendidos genericamente como aqueles que são celebrados entre entidades administrativas - enquadram-se no conjunto das relações jurídicas interadministrativas, estabelecidas à luz dos princípios da cooperação, da colaboração e da coordenação. A presente dissertação ocupa-se do fundamento jurídico-político e do conceito de contrato interadmi...
