Modern Isonomy
"In Modern Isonomy distinguished political theorist Gerald Stourzh develops the idea of "isonomy" or a system of equal rights for all, as an alternative to the concept of "democracy." The ideal for Stourzh is a state, and indeed a world, in which individual rights, including the right to participate in politics equally, are clearly defined, and possessed by all, as the core of a real democratic system. Stourzh begins with ancient Greek thought contrasting isonomy--which is associated with the rule of the many--with oligarchies and monarchies, pursuing the implications of these different forms for the rights accorded to individuals. He moves on through history to discuss the American experime...

The Law of Third Sector Organizations in Europe
This book presents and discusses the law of third sector organizations in a selected number of European Union countries and in a comparative perspective, with the aim of providing a common basis for further legal analyses or legislative advancements both at the national and supranational level. The book is divided into two parts. Chapters in Part I present the ways in which each national jurisdiction deals with the group of organizations identified by the authors as “third sector organizations”, regardless of the ways in which these organizations are denominated or are commonly known in each country or the place in which their regulation is found. Chapters in Part II share a synthesis and comparative approach and draw the lines for further developments of the research activity culminated in the book.
German Corporate Governance in International and European Context
Corporate governance encompasses the free enterprise system, which is treated comprehensively in this book from a German perspective. This distinguishes the book from other books written in English in this subject area, not only because of the comprehensive way it covers German corporate law and corporate governance, but also because of the fact that it provides international and European perspectives on these important topics. This second edition is an extensively revised and updated version of the first edition, in particular with a view to the worldwide debt crisis. The authors provide readers with an overview of the unique features of German business and enterprise law and an in-depth an...
Der Rechtsstaat in Zeiten von Notstand und Terrorabwehr
Ein Rechtsstaat muss sich im Alltag fortlaufend bewähren. Besonders herausgefordert wird er aber in aussergewöhnlichen Bedrohungslagen, wie sie die Notstands- und Antiterrorgesetzgebung regulieren. Der vorliegende und vorläufig letzte Band des deutsch-türkischen Forums berichtet über die diesbezügliche aktuelle Rechtslage und verfassungsgerichtliche Praxis in Deutschland und in der Türkei und enthält rechtsstaatlich reflektierte Korrektur- und Reformvorschläge.
Die Staatsfinanzierung nach der Paulskirchenverfassung
English summary: Taxation is essential to every state-and taxation is a threat to the economic freedom of the individual. Therefore in every constitution the provisions on taxation are of paramount importance. Simon Kempny examines how the issues of taxation and public finance are dealt with in the first modern German constitution, adopted on March 28, 1849. German description: Die Geschichte der bundesstaatlichen Finanzverfassung Deutschlands beginnt nicht erst 1867/71, sondern bereits 1848/49. Die in Folge der Marzrevolution in der Frankfurter Paulskirche zusammengetretene deutsche Nationalversammlung erarbeitete eine Reichsverfassung, die sowohl finanz- als auch steuerverfassungsrechtlich...
Die Gleichheitssätze
English summary: Equal treatment is the objective of basic fundamental rights and human rights in constitutional law, European Union law and public international law. These provisions are usually dealt with separately, yet show similarities that are outlined in this study. Along with this, the authors develop a conceptual framework which encompasses the conditions of applicability of equal-treatment provisions as well as their substantive content. German description: Gleichheitssatze verschiedenster Herkunft weisen in Tatbestand und Rechtsfolgen gemeinsame Strukturelemente auf, die die Autoren der vorliegenden Untersuchung herausarbeiten. Zentral ist das Tatbestandselement Ungleichbehandlung...
Verwaltungskontrolle
So gegenwartig der Begriff der Kontrolle in der rechts- und verwaltungswissenschaftlichen Diskussion ist, so unscharf sind seine Konturen. Definitionen unterbleiben nicht selten, gerade auch unter Hinweis auf die Vielgestaltigkeit des Vorgefundenen. Simon Kempny unternimmt es, die Kontrolle der Verwaltung in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und in der Europaischen Union, wie sie durch Gerichte, Rechnungshofe, verschiedene Beauftragte und weitere Stellen wahrgenommen wird, auf der Grundlage eines Satzes scharf definierter Begriffe systematisierend zu erfassen. Jeweils unter einer von sieben Leitfragen wird zunachst der rechtstheoretische Zusammenhang ausgeleuchtet, sodann der Rechtsstoff dogmatisch aufgearbeitet und schliesslich unter verwaltungswissenschaftlichem Blickwinkel gezeigt, inwieweit Kontrolle zur Herstellung und Sicherung administrativer Rationalitat beitragen kann.
The European Union as Protector and Promoter of Equality
This book considers the European Union as a project with a major antidiscrimination goal, which is important to remember at a time of increasing resentment against particularly exposed groups, especially migrants, refugees, members of ethnic or religious minorities and LGBTI persons. While equality and non-discrimination have long been core principles of the international community as a whole, as is made obvious by the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, they have shaped European integration in a particular way. The concepts of diversity, pluralism and equality have always been inherent in that process, the EU being virtually founded on the values of equality and non-di...
