Download or read book Criminology and Criminal Policy Movements written by Eugenio Raúl Zaffaroni and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2013 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "These studies recover the historical roots of thinking that are in conflict with, and critical of, present-day tendencies. Criminological theory over the last few decades has oscillated between extremes: on one side there are calls for increasing the state exercise of punitive power as the only means of providing security, in the face of both urban and international rime; while the other side highlights the need for reducing the exercise of punitive power because of the paradoxical effects that it produces. Useful for academics, practitioners, professionals and students, this book will certainly contribute to a wider awareness in crime prevention and criminal justice."--Publisher's website.

Download or read book Uniform Law for International Sales written by John Honnold and published by Springer. This book was released on 1991-05-28 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication is a comprehensive commentary on the history, analysis & interpretation of the Bilateral Investment Treaties (BITs). These treaties are intended to protect U.S. investment in foreign countries. Although the initial target of the BITs was to develop countries in the third world, the opening of Eastern Europe has led to BIT negotiations in that region as well. United States Investment Treaties: Policy & Practice analyzes the policies underlying the BIT program; describes how the BIT program differs from prior U.S. practice with respect to foreign investment protection; explains the intent of specific provisions in the various model negotiations texts; assesses the extent to which the negotiations of the individual signed BITs resulted in a substantive modification of provisions of the model negotiating texts & thus a departure from the intent of the drafters. This book deals with a topic of increasing interest to businesses with operations in foreign countries & to attorneys advising these companies.

Download or read book Cl usula rebus sic stantibus e interpretaci n de los contratos written by Isabel Espín Alba and published by Editorial Reus. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta monografía presenta un análisis crítico de la evolución jurisprudencial del tratamiento de la cláusula rebus sic stantibus, así como el estudio de la formulación de cláusulas de previsión de riesgos. Proporciona valiosa información sobre los dos frentes abiertos desde el ejercicio de la abogacía y de la investigación jurídica: por un lado, el conocimiento casuístico de la doctrina jurisprudencial vigente sobre la materia como herramienta de litigación, y por otra parte, no menos importante, la prevención de los efectos adversos de la regla rebus, por medio de la introducción de previsiones contractuales sobre el riesgo, así como del manejo de técnicas de negociación para la modificación o novación de acuerdos vigentes. Pasado el período de crisis económica de la última década, si surgen nuevos escenarios económicos, sociales o financieros adversos, ante la escasa respuesta normativa, la interpretación judicial de los contratos seguirá jugando un papel decisivo en la búsqueda de soluciones para las alteraciones sobrevenidas de las circunstancias contractuales. Desde una perspectiva proactiva, si se quiere adelantar soluciones e impedir —o al menos suavizar— intervenciones judiciales sustitutivas de la voluntad de los contratantes, es conveniente una negociación más ajustada de las cláusulas contractuales, incluso en contratos menos complejos. Isabel Espín Alba es Profesora Titular de Derecho Civil en la Universidad de Santiago de Compostela. Con una amplia trayectoria académica y una constante producción científica reflejada en más de un centenar de trabajos —libros, capítulos de libro y artículos—, sus principales líneas de investigación son la propiedad intelectual, el derecho de contratos, el derecho agroalimentario, así como los nuevos retos del derecho de la persona y de la familia.

Download or read book Introduction to Spanish Private Law written by Teresa Rodriguez de las Heras Ballell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-09-10 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topics addressed in this book have traditionally been covered in separate publications on civil and commercial law. This dualism of regimes has made it difficult for students and professionals alike to comprehend Spanish private law as a whole. In the past this has led to inefficient duplication of explanations, gaps in key areas and an altogether fragmented picture. Introduction to Spanish Private Law presents a consolidated, modern, and realistic image of today’s Spanish private legal system. It combines both civil and commercial law and integrates them in the same book, making the overall subject far more accessible to readers. This united approach results in a more logical and efficient process of learning. Finally the issues that are addressed reflect the reality of today’s economic and legal scene. This book attempts to provide the readers with the necessary legal instruments to tackle the real problems arising from a globalized modern society. The general principles in this book are presented from a practical point of view that emanates from the authors’ conception of a legal system as an instrument to solve social problems in accordance with a set of principles, values and aims.

Download or read book Speaking of Liberty written by Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr. and published by Ludwig Von Mises Institute. This book was released on 2003 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mises said that teaching the public was just as important as addressing scholars maybe more so.That is what Lew Rockwell specializes in: history and theory and analysis in defense of the free society, written in clear prose to reach a broad audience. Rockwells new book is as pro liberty as it is brutally critical of government. It is relentlessly forthright yet hopeful about the prospects for liberty. It is rigorous enough to withstand the enemys closest scrutiny, and chock full of the energy and enthusiasm that will keep you reading. As a collection of speeches delivered over a period of ten years, Speaking of Liberty is long (470 pages), but it is the kind of book people will want to see in the hands of friends, family, and students. The book begins with economics, and explains why Austrian economics matters, how the Federal Reserve brings on the business cycle, why we need private property and free enterprise, the unrecognized glories of the capitalist economy, and why the gold standard is still the best monetary system. The remaining sections deal with war, Mises and his work, other important thinkers in the libertarian tradition, and the culture and morality of liberty. The book is united by a set of fixed principles: the corruption of politics, the universality and immutability of the ideas of freedom, the centrality of sound money and free enterprise, the moral imperative of peace and trade, the importance of hope and tenacity in the struggle for liberty, and the need for everyone to join the intellectual fight. We all have searched for the book we could give to friends and neighbors, business associates and family members, to explain why we believe in the cause of liberty. Speaking of Liberty is that book. "Critics of the free market are therefore the Wile E Coyotes of our day: sitting on the stool in comfort, they systematically saw away at the legs beneath them, on the absurd assumption that they will be able to hang in the air indefinitely after their work is done. Along comes Lew Rockwell and shouts as loud as he can: Beep, beep." Gary North
