Download or read book Carbon Free Shipping and Shipping Carbon written by Stephen Girvin and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the private law implementation of the new international and EU regulatory framework targeting decarbonisation in the shipping industry. Compared with other sectors, the shipping industry has traditionally been labelled a 'slow mover' concerning the sustainability agenda. However, new regulatory measures on carbon reduction both internationally and in the EU require fundamentally new developments in the industry. This book focuses on the goal of carbon reduction from a private law perspective and considers how the new regulatory framework can be implemented in the shipping industry. This book studies existing contractual provisions in charterparties and bills of lading alongside new contractual model clauses designed to facilitate carbon reduction. It considers how the new clauses should be interpreted, whether they will transform traditional shipping contracts into more collaborative contracts, and how they will interact with other clauses in the contract and with other contracts in the supply chain. The contractual analysis is considered in context, reflecting on enforcement issues, such as Port State Control (PSC), the Poseidon Principles, and climate change litigation. The book also analyses the related topic of shipping contracts for carbon storage as a necessary means of meeting carbon reduction targets. The book is intended to pave the way for understanding how core shipping contracts can work in this new context and the extent to which the new types of clauses will profoundly transform contracts. It presents contributions by experienced and younger academics and practitioners from Asian, European and Scandinavian legal systems.

Download or read book Of Risks and Normative Responses written by Christina Anikó Simmig and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disaster losses in the context of natural hazards continue to rise, despite a growing understanding of disaster risks and measures to reduce them. One obstacle to enhancing private and public disaster risk reduction is the influence of the distorted risk perception of laypeople. The book argues for the necessity of public regulations and explores means to mitigate the consequences of such distorted risk perception through legal measures and adjustments to political decision-making in Council of Europe member states, while respecting the value of autonomy and democratic principles. In terms of collective decision-making, the book advocates for the implementation of deliberative fora in the democratic decision-making process to mitigate the influence of distorted risk perception associated with natural hazards. Additionally, the book discusses a range of disaster risk reducing measures that member states may lawfully implement to protect individuals and communities from the consequences of distorted risk perceptions related to common natural hazards. To underscore the merits of strengthening disaster risk reduction from the bottom-up, this book demonstrates how fundamental rights and democratic values impede attempts to increase DRR from the top-down, even in cases where people's risk perceptions are distorted. In doing so, the book addresses the issue of disaster risk reduction in a novel way by exposing how legal and political barriers to disaster loss reduction can be overcome by giving higher priority to mitigating distorted risk perceptions.
Download or read book Fictitious Capital written by Cédric Durand and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How finance is a mechanism of social and political domination The 2007–08 credit crisis and the long recession that followed brutally exposed the economic and social costs of financialization. Understanding what lay behind these events, the rise of “fictitious capital” and its opaque logic, is crucial to grasping the social and political conditions under which we live. Yet, for most people, the operations of the financial system remain shrouded in mystery. In this lucid and compelling book, economist Cédric Durand offers a concise and critical introduction to the world of finance, unveiling the truth behind the credit crunch. Fictitious Capital moves beyond moralizing tales about greedy bankers, short-sighted experts and compromised regulators to look at the big picture. Using comparative data covering the last four decades, Durand examines the relationship between trends such as the rise in private and public debt and the proliferation of financial products; norms such as our habitual assumptions about the production of value and financial stability; and the relationship of all this to political power. Fictitious Capital offers a stark warning about the direction that the international economy is taking. Durand argues that the accelerated expansion of financial operations is a sign of the declining power of the economies of the Global North. The City, Wall Street and other centres of the power of money, he suggests, may already be caked with the frosts of winter.

Download or read book Sites of Modernity Places of Risk written by Martin H. Geyer and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2023-07-14 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Places of risk” and “sites of modernity” refer not merely to physical locations, but also objects and institutions that stand at the center of contemporary debates on security and risk. These are social and political domains where energy and infrastructure are produced, where domestic security is pursued and maintained, and where citizens encounter the state in its punitive or monitory roles. Taking a wide view of the period from the 1970s to today, this volume brings together innovative, interdisciplinary case studies of sites of modernity that promise to provide security and safety, yet at the same time are deemed responsible for creating new risks. With a particular contemporary interest in the technocratic changes of security and risk control the contributors to Sites of Modernity — Places of Risk position the 1970s as a turning point in the path from industrial to post-industrial modernity.
Download or read book Consumer Behaviour and Decision Making from Officed Based Doctors written by Claudia Pitterle and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As individuals, we face the challenge of making numerous decisions every day. Although some of them are made consciously, the majority are made unconsciously and automatically (Pöppel, 2007, p. 22). Especially in the insurance sector, which is one of the more complex fields of decisionmaking, these decisions have far-reaching significance. The discussion of risk protection and individual insurance demand is gaining in importance, especially against the backdrop of climate change, cyber-attacks and global health crises such as the COVID 19 pandemic. The literature research in the context of these interests revealed that studies and surveys in Germany, Europe, as well as in North America repeatedly identify structural insurance gaps and a tendency towards underinsurance. This reveals systematic deviations from economically appropriate insurance coverage. There is even talk of “misinsurance” due to incorrect risk perception, assessment, and evaluation on the part of the policyholders. From a behavioural economics perspective, these patterns can be attributed to heuristics and cognitive biases that influence the decision-making of the insured (European Commission, 2017; GDV, 2020; GoslarInstitut, 2016, Kunreuther et al., 2013, Richter et al., 2019). Based on these findings, the commercial insurance coverage of doctors in private practice was evaluated and the demand for insurance was investigated. Officed- based doctors in Germany are central actors in the health care system and so far, there is no specific study on their coverage behaviour. The aim of the thesis was therefore to examine the officed- based doctors’ behaviours towards professional safe-guarding risks. With a further objective to investigate the use of heuristics and identify factors indicating deviations from economically adequate insurance coverage, to better understand manifested decision-making behaviour.
Download or read book Governance of Automated Decision Making and EU Law written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governance of Automated Decision-Making and EU Law presents a comprehensive and nuanced exploration of the intricate relationship between technological innovation and democratic governance in Europe. Focused on preserving constitutional values within the European Union, the book rigorously examines the profound impact of information technologies on rule-making and decision-making processes. The dual objectives of the volume are to comprehensively explore the impact of innovative information technologies on the EU's public law and to devise future-proof regulatory strategies in the face of rapid technological advancements. Addressing the spread of information technology and automated decision-making processes across EU policy sectors, the work delves into potential risks to democratic principles and accountability standards. Advocating for a comprehensive approach, the volume integrates legal, policy, and technological considerations to establish accountability standards for automated decision-making systems. Tailored for academics, researchers, and policymakers, Governance of Automated Decision-Making and EU Law provides a vital resource for understanding the complexities and opportunities associated with the digitalization of shared administration in the EU. It contributes significantly to the ongoing discourse on safeguarding constitutional values and principles of good governance in the digital era. The findings underscore the interconnectedness of information systems across EU-regulated policy areas and the risks posed by automated decision-making systems. Urging attention to transparency and accountability, the book addresses these concerns through eleven chapters, offering insights into normative requirements, administrative procedures, market regulation, digital health, borders and immigration, political advertising, interoperability framework, AI technology, and their intersection with legal principles.

Download or read book Quick Guide Crypto Assets written by Hannah Appel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-28 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the complex topic of crypto securities is presented in a compact, understandable and practical manner. In addition to conveying the fundamentals and technical background of the crypto market, a classification in the various areas of supervisory law is made. The focus is on German law, although reference is also made to the European equivalence standards. In order to succeed in a correct classification into European financial market law, both the Liechtenstein law on tokens and VT service providers and the European proposal for a regulation on markets for crypto assets are discussed in detail and compared with the German supervisory regulations on crypto assets. The aim, in addition to creating a basic understanding of how crypto assets work, is to construct a comprehensive overall picture of their regulatory treatment in Germany and to include possible implications of a European push. The work thus provides guidance to individuals who, for example, wish to invest in cryptocurrencies or start a business related to cryptocurrencies.
Download or read book Perspectives on Knowledge Communication written by Jan Engberg and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-25 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection elaborates an innovative analytical framework for knowledge communication, bringing together insights from a range of professional settings to highlight how a cross-disciplinary approach can promote a new view of knowledge that emphasizes constructivist and cognitivist perspectives. The volume seeks to draw connections between different disciplines’ traditionally disparate studies of knowledge communication, defined here as the communication of domain knowledge between experts of the same discipline, experts of different disciplines, or non-experts with an interest in developing expert knowledge. Featuring work from scholars across linguistics, corporate communication, and sociology on diverse professional environments, chapters focus on one of three central aspects in the communication of expert knowledge: the textual carrier of the interaction, the roles and relationships between parties in these interactions, and the contexts in which the texts and communication occur. Taken together, the collection elucidates the value of an approach that supposes that expertise is co-created in interaction under the conditions of human cognitive systems and that knowledge asymmetries can offer both challenges and opportunities to better understand and generate new forms of communication and specialized knowledge. This book will be of interest to scholars interested in language and communication, professional communication, organizational communication, and sociology of knowledge.
