Perspectives on Cooperative Law
This book contributes to the development of literature on cooperative law while paying tribute to Hagen Henrÿ’s significant impact on this field at a global scale. Hagen Henrÿ is one of the most influential scholars in the field of cooperative law. His primary contribution has been in the area of public international cooperative law. His other areas of scientific interest include development law and comparative law. This honorary volume is focused on two main axes -- the essence of cooperatives as well as their activities and their governance. The contributions throw light on how these two axes are addressed by cooperative legislation across countries, regions and continents. In the varied perspectives that the contributions put together, both a theoretical and practical approach, the authors address central, current and crucial issues for the development of cooperative law. The book is a great resource for researcher scholars, as well as policy makers and industry players interested in the topic.

Insurance and Human Rights
This volume examines the impact of and interplay between human rights and insurance. National, supranational and international legal instruments regulating the taking-up and pursuit of the business of insurance and reinsurance, (re)insurance distribution and the insurance contract often refer to or impact on human or fundamental rights. Courts are often faced with the sometimes seemingly impossible task of reconciling insurance core principles, practices and mind-sets with the principles and values stemming from human rights protection. In some cases, such as that of discrimination in insurance, this discussion has been going on for decades. Some deal with hot topics which have more recently...

In contrast to processes involving commodification, commercialisation, bureaucratisation and corporatisation, the SSE reasserts the place of ethics, social well-being and democratic decision-making in economic activities and governance. Identifying and analysing a myriad of issues and topics associated with the SSE, the Encyclopedia broadens the knowledge base of diverse actors of the SSE, including practitioners, activists and policymakers.
Co-operative Principles and Co-operative Law. 2nd edition
This textbook is a revised second edition of a "classic" on co-operative law, which has been translated into more than 20 languages. The book integrates an analysis of the 1995 Statement of the Co-operative Identity of the International Co-operative Alliance and the impact of political, economic, and social changes over the past 40 years. The original pattern of the book remains unchanged: Two questions are answered for each of the identified principles: What is the meaning of this co-operative principle? How is this principle translated into co-operative legislation? In this newest edition, two additional questions are discussed and answered for each of the chapters: What are the new development trends and what are the new rules in co-operative legislation? (Series: Economy: Research and Science / Wirtschaft: Forschung und Wissenschaft - Vol. 34) [Subject: Co-operative Law]
International Handbook of Cooperative Law
The degree of development reached by cooperatives of different sectors throughout the world, which among others led to the UN declaring 2012 as the International Year of Cooperatives, needs to be accompanied by a similar development of corresponding legislation. To this end, a better knowledge of cooperative law from the comparative point of view, as has already been established for other types of enterprises, becomes of great importance. This book strives to fill this gap, and is divided into four parts. The first part offers an analytic and conceptual framework with which to understand, study and assess cooperative law from a transnational and comparative perspective. The second part includes several chapters dealing with attempts to harmonize cooperative laws. The third part contains an overview of more than 30 national cooperative laws, while the last part summarizes and compares these national cooperative laws, thus laying the foundation for a comparative cooperative law doctrine.
Ten Lectures on Co-operative Law. Second, revised edition
This updated edition on co-operative law shows how political change and several new trends have affected co-operative legislation. These trends include: economisation and approximation of co-operative law to company law; development of uniform legal designs for special matters like bookkeeping, audit, and merger across legal patterns and national boundaries; the revised co-operative principles of the International Co-operative Alliance; the growing difference between small and large co-operatives; and heterogeneous membership and extended solidarity.

The Transnational Land Rush in Africa
This volume provides up-to-date information on what has happened in the African ‘land rush’, providing national case studies for countries that were heavily impacted. The research will be a critical resource for students, researchers, advocates and policy makers as it provides detailed, long-term assessments of a broad range of national contexts.

Economía social y solidaria en la educación superior: un espacio para la innovación (Tomo 2)
El segundo tomo de la colección Economía social y solidaria en la educación superior: un espacio para la innovación aborda temas relacionados con los modelos y enfoques pedagógicos. Aquí se da relevancia a la reflexión epistemológica que subyace en las disciplinas y se incluye la economía social y solidaria como objeto de estudio que permite responder a la crisis de la civilización. Se incluyen también procesos en el aula que suscitan vínculos con la investigación formativa y las metodologías activas. Se exponen desarrollos curriculares que muestran un potencial para promover la retención y graduación de estudiantes a través del cooperativismo. También se muestra cómo este modelo socioeconómico y ambiental es la base de un ejercicio de integración e interacción con la sociedad a partir de un programa de reciclaje y manejo de residuos. Además, se presenta la buena práctica del tecnopolo o parque tecnológico de la Universidad pública de Yaundé II (Camerún), donde, a través de la economía social y solidaria, confluyen la docencia, la investigación y la proyección social para el beneficio de la comunidad y la universidad.
Droit de la preuve dans l'espace OHADA
Pourquoi et comment le droit de la preuve doit-il être unifié dans les États membres de l'Organisation pour l'Harmonisation en Afrique du Droit des Affaires (OHADA) ? L'harmonisation du droit de la preuve se justifie par la disparité des normes probatoires aux sources plurielles voire concurrentes, et la mixité du système probatoire partagé entre la preuve libre et la preuve légale. Une harmonisation du droit de la preuve permettrait, en outre, de moderniser la matière et de l'adapter aux réalités africaines. Toutefois, le droit de la preuve s'accommode mal d'une intégration au droit des affaires. A cet égard, aussi nécessaire que paraît l'émergence d'un droit uniforme de la preuve, son élaboration dans le cadre de l'OHADA appelle des précautions dans la méthode et dans le contenu.
