Homogenization is not about periodicity, or Gamma-convergence, but about understanding which effective equations to use at macroscopic level, knowing which partial differential equations govern mesoscopic levels, without using probabilities (which destroy physical reality); instead, one uses various topologies of weak type, the G-convergence of Sergio Spagnolo, the H-convergence of François Murat and the author, and some responsible for the appearance of nonlocal effects, which many theories in continuum mechanics or physics guessed wrongly. For a better understanding of 20th century science, new mathematical tools must be introduced, like the author’s H-measures, variants by Patrick Gérard, and others yet to be discovered.
Deutsches und polnisches Strafrecht sind sich in vieler Hinsicht ahnlich, beispielhaft erkennbar ist dies daran, dass die Strafrechtswissenschaft in beiden Landern dieselben Systembegriffe verwendet. Unterschiede gibt es gleichwohl, so hinsichtlich positiver wie negativer Generalpravention in der Strafzumessung im Allgemeinen und bezuglich der Abschreckungspravention im Speziellen. In Deutschland unter strengen Voraussetzungen bei der Begrundung der Strafhohe zugelassen, ist die Abschreckungspravention in Polen schlechthin verboten. Die Dissertation erlautert Hintergrunde und Anwendungsfelder der Generalpravention und arbeitet anhand der Rechtsprechung verschiedene Fallgruppen heraus.

" A Grain of Truth, like every great crime novel, digs up more unsettling questions than it does answers; it also demonstrates the seemingly endless possibilities of the form itself to serve as smart social criticism." --Maureen Corrigan, on NPR's Fresh AirPraise for the first novel in the Teodor Szacki series:"In Entanglement Miloszewski takes an engaging look at modern Polish society in this stellar first in a new series starring Warsaw prosecutor Teodor Szacki.

This work is a multidisciplinary analysis of the issue of insider dealing from the perspective of the applicability of criminal law to regulate it. First, it examines the nature of its prohibition in the European Union and in the United States of America. The text includes a more extensive overview of prohibition in four Member States of the European Union (France, the United Kingdom, Luxembourg and Poland). Then, it summarises the arguments presented by ethicists and economists in favour of and against insider dealing. Further, it analyses the foundations of criminal law and justifications that are given for its application. On the basis of this analysis, it presents a new two-step theory of criminalisation. The first step is based on a liberal theory of wrongfulness that makes reference to protection of the basic human rights. The second step relies on classical but often forgotten principles of criminal law. Finally, it examines possible alternatives to criminal rules.
