Download or read book The International Ombudsman Anthology written by Reif and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2023-09-14 with total page 783 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology brings together a selection of writings by ombudsman experts that explore various aspects of the contemporary public sector ombudsman. Originally published in International Ombudsman Institute publications, these articles illustrate the diversity of ombudsman offices around the world and underscore the elements and issues that are important to all ombudsman institutions. From its Scandinavian roots, the ombudsman model has been established worldwide and at all levels of government as a mechanism to monitor and improve government administration. The model has seen renewed interest in the past decade in democratizing countries which are reforming their governmental institutions, such as in Latin America, Central and East Europe, Africa and the Asia Pacific region. This anthology explores the essential elements of the public sector ombudsman and the emerging mandates of the ombudsman institution both in established and consolidating democracies. In particular, the role of the ombudsman in human rights protection is scrutinized from a variety of perspectives. The anthology also includes critical analyses of the extent of the jurisdiction of the public sector ombudsman, focusing on matters such as the relationship of the ombudsman with administrative tribunals and the courts. Issues surrounding the ombudsman process of investigation, recommendation and reporting are highlighted - such as administrative fairness in the ombudsman process, special investigations, public education about the office and media relations.

Download or read book Cases Materials and Text on Judicial Review of Administrative Action written by Chris Backes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 1031 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This casebook studies the law governing judicial review of administrative action. It examines the foundations and the organisation of judicial review, the types of administrative action, and corresponding kinds of review and access to court. Significant attention is also devoted to the conduct of the court proceedings, the grounds for review, and the standard of review and the remedies available in judicial review cases. The relevant rules and case law of Germany, England and Wales, France and the Netherlands are analysed and compared. The similarities and differences between the legal systems are highlighted. The impact of the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights is considered, as well as the influence of EU legislative initiatives and the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union, in the legal systems examined. Furthermore, the system of judicial review of administrative action before the European courts is studied and compared to that of the national legal systems. During the last decade, the growing influence of EU law on national procedural law has been increasingly recognised. However, the way in which national systems of judicial review address the requirements imposed by EU law differs substantially. The casebook compares the primary sources (legislation, case law etc) of the legal systems covered, and explores their differences and similarities: this examination reveals to what extent a ius commune of judicial review of administrative action is developing.

Download or read book Judicial Lawmaking and Administrative Law written by and published by Intersentia nv. This book was released on 2005 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book before carries a broad title. In the Dutch literature, the terms lawfinding and lawmaking are often used interchangeably. From a legal point of view, however, it makes quite a difference to the position of the court whether lawfinding or lawmaking is meant. Why write a book about lawmaking by the courts just in the area of administrative law? In administrative law, the administration is positioned between the legislature and the judiciary. The courts review decisions taken by the administration in implementing the law; however, where the administration has often been granted a degree of discretion, the courts access the lawfulness of the decision. The relation administration-judiciary raises so many specific questions that it justifies a book on judicial lawmaking in administrative matters. The authors are all members of the research program Public Law of the Ius Commune School.
