Tenancy Law and Housing Policy in Europe
Tenancy law has developed in all EU member states for decades, or even centuries, but constitutes a widely blank space in comparative and European law. This book fills an important gap in the literature by considering the diverse and complex panorama of housing policies, markets and their legal regulation across Europe. Expert contributors argue that that while unification is neither politically desired nor opportune, a European recommendation of best practices including draft rules and default contracts implementing a regulatory equilibrium would be a rewarding step forward.
Toward an Anti-Capitalist Composition
In Toward an Anti-Capitalist Composition, James Rushing Daniel argues that capitalism is eminently responsible for the entangled catastrophes of the twenty-first century—precarity, economic and racial inequality, the decline of democratic culture, and climate change—and that it must accordingly become a central focus in the teaching of writing. Delving into pedagogy, research, and institutional work, he calls for an ambitious reimagining of composition as a discipline opposed to capitalism’s excesses. Drawing on an array of philosophers, political theorists, and activists, Daniel outlines an anti-capitalist approach informed by the common, a concept theorized by Pierre Dardot and Chris...
Regional and Local Development in Times of Polarisation
Despite the emphasis of the European Regional Policy on territorial cohesion, regional disparities have been increasing within Europe in the past years. The metropolitan areas in almost all countries are considerably growing while regions outside of agglomerations are stagnating or even declining. Against this background this book aims to provide an understanding of the underlying processes of polarisation and related regional and local policies. This open access volume contributes to the debates about polarisation and regional development by focussing on questions of spatial justice, power distribution and policy transfer. Theoretical and empirically grounded contributions show that Europea...
Who Was Who on TV
The information herein was accumulated of fifty some odd years. The collection process started when TV first came out and continued until today. The books are in alphabetical order and cover shows from the 1940s to 2010. The author has added a brief explanation of each show and then listed all the characters, who played the roles and for the most part, the year or years the actor or actress played that role. Also included are most of the people who created the shows, the producers, directors, and the writers of the shows. These books are a great source of trivia information and for most of the older folk will bring back some very fond memories. I know a lot of times we think back and say, "Who was the guy that played such and such a role?" Enjoy!
Loss of Homes and Evictions across Europe
The loss of a home can lead to major violations of a person’s dignity and human rights. Yet, evictions take place everyday in all countries across Europe. This book provides a comparative assessment of human rights, administrative, procedural and public policy norms, in the context of eviction, across a number of European jurisdictions. Through this comparison the book exposes the emergence of consistent, Europe-wide standards and norms.
Private Rental Housing in Transition Countries
This book presents an overview of private rented housing in selected new EU member states and other transition countries – a topic scarcely researched to date, as it is largely part of the informal economy, and consequently often invisible to official statistics. Part I presents the private rented sector in Western and Northern European countries, the history of private renting under socialism in Central and Eastern Europe, and thematic issues such as restitution and marginalized groups depending on privately rented housing. Part II provides a series of country case studies from the Central and East European region. Part III concludes with chapters on the possibility of utilizing the private rental sector in affordable housing provision through good practices in both old and new EU member states, and sets out to further the housing policy debate on European housing regimes. This unique edited collection will be of great value to scholars of and practitioners involved in housing policy and economics, urban development, international relations, politics, economics and sociology.
Eintunkt
Sommer, Sonne, Festival-Zeit. Eigentlich wollten Lokaljournalistin Vera Horvath und ihre Freundinnen vom Klub der Grünen Daumen den August geruhsam angehen. Doch dann kommt alles anders als gedacht. Statt Love & Peace gibt es am legendären Musik-Festival »picture on« Mord und Totschlag. Ein seltsamer Stalker geht um, Vera wird in einen hochpeinlichen Sexunfall verwickelt und Rocksängerin Alex Woods verschwindet nach einer exzessiven After-Show-Party. Die Gartenladies nehmen sich der Sache an und graben bei ihren Ermittlungen statt Stauden eine Leiche aus ...
Giardino con delitto
Vivere in campagna è un’aspirazione di molti; il verde, la tranquillità, il silenzio sono un richiamo irresistibile per chi vuole evadere dall’affanno cittadino. Ma a volte, dietro questa pace apparente, si nascondono corruzione, avidità e misteri irrisolti. Eva e Paul approdano nel Burgenland per affari. Lui fa l’architetto e ha deciso di costruire un nuovo complesso residenziale di lusso dove ora ci sono solo prati e boschi. È prepotente, arrogante, insopportabile. Non ha mai voluto che sua moglie lavorasse, una donna non lo fa. Si limita a occuparsi dell’andamento domestico, a cucinare, a comportarsi da padrona di casa quando il marito invita qualcuno di interessante, ovviamen...
Ausgstochen
„Geh hör ma auf. Das gibt’s ja nicht. Und des steht alles in dem Biachl von der Frau Bürgermeister?“ Die Frau Fuith war wirklich schockiert. »Nun“, sagte Hilda und leckte sich die Finger ab. „Dieses Buch ist sehr, sehr ordinär.“ „Wirklich? Ordinär sagst du?“, murmelte die Frau Fuith in gespielter Empörung. „Und“, Hilda machte eine bedeutungsvolle Pause, bevor sie etwas Puddingcreme auf ihre Gabel balancierte und zum Mund führte: „Ich glaube, es ist alles wahr, was da drin steht ...“ Der Bürgermeister liegt beim Pannonischen Adventmarkt tot unterm Christbaum. Seine Witwe schreibt Erotikliteratur. Ein Zuagroaster macht aus der Madonnenstatue Kleinholz. Und ein Unbekannter stellt seltsame Fragen. Es geht rund im vorweihnachtlichen Südburgenland. Bei den Ermittlungen ist der Gartenklub an vorderster Front dabei. Denn neben Misteln schneiden, Hyazinthen treiben, Grammeln (Grieben) auslassen und Kekse backen, liebt der Klub der Grünen Daumen die Verbrecherjagd. Und dabei sind Tannenläuse im Christbaum wahrlich das kleinste Problem.
