Theories of the Self and Autonomy in Medical Ethics
This book engages in a critical discussion on how to respect and promote patients’ autonomy in difficult cases such as palliative care and end-of-life decisions. These cases pose specific epistemic, normative, and practical problems, and the book elucidates the connection between the practical implications of the theoretical debate on respecting autonomy, on the one hand, and specific questions and challenges that arise in medical practice, on the other hand. Given that the idea of personal autonomy includes the notion of authenticity as one of its core components, the book explicitly includes discussions on underlying theories of the self. In doing so, it brings together original contributions and novel insights for “applied” scenarios based on interdisciplinary collaboration between German and Serbian scholars from philosophy, sociology, and law. It is of benefit to anyone cherishing autonomy in medical ethics and medical practice.

Ubij bližnjeg svog
Prvo su na prostoru SFRJ počele da ratuju tajne policije podrzavljenih republika, a potom same republike i drzave. Bio je to tihi i nevidljivi rat za običan svet, ali pouzdan simptom za političare, koji su vagali, svaki na svoj način, kako ce i kada da izađu kao pobednici iz duela sa Srbima. Srpska tajna policija je progonila drzavne neprijatelje, kako u Srbiji, tako i u drugim republikama. To su znali samo oni koji su osetili srpski politički bič na svojim leđima. U zavisnosti od prilika i događaja na unutrasnjoj političkoj sceni Jugoslavije, o tajnoj policiji ispredane su razne priče, koje su ponekad imale i karakter mita. Jos tokom rata u narodu je rođena posalica da "Ozna sve dozna", koja se u srpskom zargonu odrzala do danasnjih dana. Druga izreka, koja je postala i politički moto, glasila je "Udba je srpska sudba". Ona je na najslikovitiji način odrazavala narodno shvatanje moci i nemoci srpske, a i jugoslovenske tajne policije.
Genocide and Crimes Against Humanity
This book explores the ambiguities of the French law of genocide by exposing the inexplicable dichotomy between a progressive theory and an overly conservative practice. Based on the observation that the crime of genocide has remained absent from French courtrooms to the benefit of crimes against humanity, this research dissects the reasons for this absence, reviewing and analysing the potential legal obstacles to the judicial use of the law of genocide before contemplating the definitional impact of this judicial reluctance and the consequent confusion between the two crimes. Whilst it uses the French law of genocide and related case law on crimes against humanity as its focal points, the book further adopts a more general standpoint, suggesting that the French misunderstandings of the crime of genocide might ultimately be symptomatic of a more widespread misconception of the crime of genocide as a crime perpetrated against 'a group'.
Sentencing in International Criminal Law
This book deals with sentencing in international criminal law, focusing on the approach of the UN ad hoc Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and Rwanda (ICTR). In contrast to sentencing in domestic jurisdictions, and in spite of its growing importance, sentencing law is a part of international criminal law that is still 'under construction' and is unregulated in many aspects. International sentencing law and practice is not yet defined by exact norms and principles and as yet there is no body of international principles concerning the determination of sentence, notwithstanding the huge volume of sentencing research and the extensive modern debate about sentencing principles. Moreover ...
Sustainability in Project Management
The concept of sustainability has grown in recognition and importance. The pressure on companies to broaden their reporting and accountability from economic performance for shareholders, to sustainability performance for all stakeholders is leading to a change of mindset in consumer behaviour and corporate policies. How can we develop prosperity without compromising the life and needs of future generations? Sustainability in Project Management explores and identifies the questions surrounding the integration of the concepts of sustainability in projects and project management and provides valuable guidance and insights. Sustainability relates to multiple perspectives, economical, environmental and social, but also to responsibility and accountability and values in terms of ethics, fairness and equality. The authors will inspire project managers to be aware of these considerations, and to apply them to the role they play in projects, not just 'doing things right' but 'doing the right things right'.
