Según los términos del Artículo 1 Común a los cuatro Convenios de Ginebra de 1949, los Estados partes quedan sujetos a una obligación de respetar y de hacer respetar el Derecho Internacional Humanitario (DIH). En este libro se analiza si la Unión Europea (UE) y dos de sus Estados Miembros –Francia y España– ejecutan su obligación de hacer respetar el DIH. Concretamente, se trata de analizar cómo dos corpus jurídicos originalmente indiferentes el uno del otro, el DIH y el Derecho de la Unión, llegaron a converger y entrelazarse. Se sostiene que la aplicación del DIH ha de ser analizada desde una perspectiva multinivel. Mientras el DIH depende de los Estados para asegurar su ef...
This book focuses on the impact of political leaders on the integration process led by the European Union. It aims at a better understanding of the European Union through the actions, contributions, and ideas of these outstanding characters to European integration and disintegration. By doing so, the book offers an entirely new perspective, presenting the actions of the main actors involved, their background, their historical time, their challenges and problems, and how they influenced the European Union's development. The authors in detail discuss different ideas connected to leaders, such as Jean Monnet and neo-functionalism, Spinelli and federalism or Churchill and the idea of cooperation. Furthermore, the book examines major policies and events, like the Common Agricultural Policy, the creation of the Euro as a consequence of the German reunification and Mitterrand’s reactions, or Brexit and its connection to the impact of Margaret Thatcher. The global essence of the book makes it a must-read for students, researchers, and scholars interested in a better understanding of the European Union's integration process.
This Discussion paper explores the relationship between food loss and waste (FLW) and the right to adequate food. It focuses on the need to develop sustainable global consumption and production systems to contribute to the realization of the right to adequate food while it argues for a human rights-based approach to tackle FLW. As such, it presents key notions of FLW and expands on their impact for the realization of the right to adequate food. Simultaneously, it looks into the different components of the right to adequate food and offers ways through which its legal obligations could help processes and initiatives aimed at reducing FLW. The Discussion paper argues for a more holistic approach to reducing FLW and guaranteeing the right of each person to feed herself or himself in dignity. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) wishes to thank the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID) for its financial support, which made this publication possible.

La realidad del sistema universitario español es compleja, con todo la discusión pública se centra en el tema del Gobierno de la Universidad como principal eje en el que van a converger los problemas y las soluciones. No obstante, tras las numerosas reformas y cambios normativos se puede fácilmente comprobar que no se han alcanzado los resultados pretendidos, las prácticas no han sido adecuadas y los problemas permanecen sin que se prevea una solución a corto plazo. Este trabajo trata de fijar las cuestiones relativas al Gobierno de la Universidad, tanto las actuales como las futuras, tratadas en nuestro contexto, analizando las propuestas de reforma, así como la situación en los pri...
Visioning presents a roadmap for university leaders to vitalize higher education in response to global problems.

Each of these five chapters explores the challenge and then shifts focus to the needed roles of forward-looking higher-education institutions. These roles include building critical consciousness, develop...
El presente trabajo se ha centrado en el análisis del control judicial y los parámetros utilizados por la jurisprudencia para resolver las colisiones entre derechos en materia de medios de comunicación, tanto desde una perspectiva comparada como del propio ordenamiento jurídico interno. Los actuales sistemas de control de los medios de comunicación tienden a confluir, con interconexiones entre los diferentes mecanismos de ejercicio del control, que se pueden caracterizar como actividades de autorregulación, corregulación y de regulación. La actividad de ponderación judicial tiende a objetivizar los comportamientos, de forma que se puede decir que configuran parámetros que funcionan...
