The adoption of the Nagoya Protocol on Access and Benefit-sharing to the Convention on Biological Diversity in 2010 is a major landmark for the global governance of genetic resources and traditional knowledge. The way in which it will be translated into practice will however depend on the concrete implementation in national country legislation across the world. Implementing the Nagoya Protocol compares existing ABS regimes in ten European countries, including one non-EU member and one EU candidate country, and critically explores several cross-cutting issues related to the implementation of the Nagoya Protocol in the EU. Gathering some of the most professional and widely acclaimed experts in ABS issues, this book takes a major step towards filling a gap in the vast body of literature on national and regional implementation of global commitments regarding ABS and traditional knowledge.
By the year 2000, a balance was sought between security requirements and a respect for privacy, as well as for individual and collective freedoms. As we progress further into the 21st century, however, security is taking precedence within an increasingly controlled society. This shift is due to advances in innovative technologies and the investments made by commercial companies to drive constant technological progress. Despite the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) within the EU in 2018 or 2020’s California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), regulatory bodies do not have the ability to fully manage the consequences presented by emerging technologies. Security and Its Challenges in the 21st Century provides students and researchers with an international legal and geopolitical analysis; it is also intended for those interested in societal development, artificial intelligence, smart cities and quantum cryptology.

How Europe can hit the “reset” button after years of failed responses to North African turmoil The ongoing upheaval in North Africa has presented many challenges to Europe, which previously had been comfortable with the status quo of authoritarian leadership in much of the region. Now in its ninth year, the turmoil has forced European leaders to rethink their approaches to the region, based on the now-obvious reality that the brief hopes of early 2011 for the spread of democracy and economic progress will not be fulfilled anytime soon. In this book, experts from Europe, the United States, and the Middle East discuss what has happened since the so-called “Arab Spring” emerged and how ...

L’équilibre souhaité à la fin du XXe siècle entre l’exigence de sécurité et le respect de la vie privée et des libertés individuelles et collectives cède la place au XXIe siècle à la priorité sécuritaire pour le corps social, de plus en plus contrôlé. Ce phénomène s’explique par l’avancée des technologies innovantes et les investissements que consentent les sociétés commerciales pour une perpétuelle course en avant technologique. Malgré la mise en place du RGPD au sein de l’Union européenne depuis mai 2018 ou du CCPA en Californie depuis janvier 2020, les autorités de régulation ne suffisent pas à encadrer les dérives des nouvelles technologies. Les enjeux de la sécurité au XXIe siècle présente une analyse juridique et géopolitique internationale destinée aux étudiants et aux chercheurs, mais également à tous ceux qui s’intéressent au devenir social, à l’intelligence artificielle, aux villes intelligentes ou à la cryptologie quantique.

Lire un texte académique en langue étrangère constitue un défi cognitif majeur : comment faire interagir « en ligne » (c’est-à-dire au fil même de la lecture) connaissances du monde, connaissances des textes et connaissances de la langue ? Destiné principalement aux étudiants et enseignants de français (langue étrangère et langue de spécialité), cet ouvrage présente de façon simple et pédagogique des méthodes de lecture permettant de relever ce défi. Ces méthodes recourent à la fois à des stratégies dites « top-down » (mise en oeuvre des connaissances sur le monde et sur la structuration des textes) et à des stratégies dites « bottom-up » (traitement des entr...
Much has changed in European constitutional law after the Lisbon Treaty, not least the efforts to increase democratic legitimacy by engaging national legislatures and introducing a stricter subsidiary review process, namely the Early Warning Mechanism (EWM). This collection looks at how national parliaments have adapted to their new roles and looks at how the new system has impacted on relations between the EU legislative bodies and national parliaments. A team of experts from across Europe explore the effect of the EWM on the national constitutional orders; analyse the regional impact of EWM and evaluate the new system of scrutiny.
