Book Study on the Cross border Legal Protection of Vulnerable Adults in the EU

Download or read book Study on the Cross border Legal Protection of Vulnerable Adults in the EU written by and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study's objective is to evaluate the main legal difficulties and practical challenges in the cooperation within the EU in the field of the protection of vulnerable adults, and to assess the need for and the possible added value of a common legal framework for the protection of vulnerable adults in cross-border cases, either through mandatory ratification of the Hague Convention of 13 January 2000 on the International Protection of Adults ('the Convention') or via the adoption of an EU instrument to reinforce and streamline the judi-cial cooperation in that area. To this end, the study examines the national laws and practices of the Member States with regard to the roles and functioning of competent authorities, the different types of measures of protection provided for in the national legal systems, the main procedural rules applying to these measures, as well as the private international law rules in place for cross-border cases. The data presented in the report is based on desk research, as well as on the results of an online survey targeted at national competent authorities, legal practi-tioners and other stakeholders involved in the protection of vulnerable adults (e.g. NGOs, service providers). On the basis of the data collected, and in particular the information gathered on the existing problems in judicial cooperation between Member States and disparities in the current level of protection of vulnerable adults across the EU stemming from the absence of a common legal framework, the need, added value and feasibility of further action at EU level, which may take the form of a mandatory ratification of the Convention and/or of EU legislation on the matter, was assessed.

This book was released on 2008-12-09 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of electronic commerce in international trade is growing by leaps and bounds. No one can dispute the need for a system of rules to guide countries as well as private commercial parties through the many new developments and issues that arise. The United Nations Convention on the Use of Electronic Communications in International Contracts (ECC), adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in December 2005 and currently undergoing the ratification process, provides such a system. This book is a guide and resource on the Convention: its evolution, interpretation, and relationship to domestic laws throughout the world.The book represents the outcome of a conference held at the Leibniz University of Hannover in September 2007. It consists of an introduction to the drafting of the Convention, expert commentary on each article, and perspectives in the context of domestic and substantive law. A distinguished panel of authorities representatives of governments, international organizations, transnational companies, and universities, as well as practising attorneys, all of whom have been active domestically and internationally in confronting the legal issues of electronic commerce discuss such aspects of the ECC as the following: timing of dispatch and receipt of electronic communications; transactions related to the financial sector; altering the scope of the Convention by contract; 'opting in' and 'opting out'; 'choice of law' versus 'party autonomy'; use of foreign case law to interpret the Convention; legal information requirements; writing and signature requirements; error in electronic communications; and problems of identity and data integrity.Several authors provide in-depth analysis of the interaction between ECC provisions and other relevant legal regimes (including the United States, ASEAN, the EU, Sri Lanka, India, and China), as well as the interrelations between the ECC and ICC rules, rules under the CISG, and the trade usages of the lex mercatoria.The various contributors highlight issues arising from each ECC provision, and provide well-informed insight into how remaining problems are likely to be resolved as the Convention enters into force. Stakeholders from all concerned sectors of the legal community businesspersons and their counsel, IGO and government officials, and academics will benefit greatly from the detailed information, analysis, and guidance offered here.

Book Fundamental Rights in the EU Area of Freedom  Security and Justice

This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 1070 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice has transformed the European Union and placed fundamental rights at the core of EU integration and its principles of mutual recognition and trust. The impact of the AFSJ in the development of an EU standard of fundamental rights, which has come to the fore since the Treaty of Lisbon, is a topic of great theoretical and practical importance. This is the first systematic academic study of the AFSJ and its implications from the point of view of fundamental rights. The contributions to this collection examine the normative and jurisprudential development of the AFSJ in order to assess its effects on the overall construction of the scope and standards of protection of EU fundamental rights in this particularly complex and sensitive field of integration. The expert contributors systematically map and critically assess this area of EU law, together with the relevant case-law.

  • Publisher : BRILL
  • Release : 2021-11-08
  • ISBN : 9004503919
  • Pages : 502 pages

Download or read book Private International Law written by Symeon C. Symeonides and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book compares the two golden ages of private international law (PIL): the first is the era of Story and Savigny in the nineteenth century, while the second comprises the last fifty years. The period between 1970 and 2020 has been one of rapid changes and dense legislative responses, exemplified by the adoption of over one hundred national PIL codifications and almost as many international or regional conventions and regulations. These instruments provide a rich source for this book’s incisive and instructive comparisons and a fertile ground for a reliable assessment of the progress of PIL as a discipline. This book skillfully uncovers and meticulously documents the gradual—and largely unnoticed—transition of PIL from the idealism of the nineteenth century to the pragmatic eclecticism and pluralism of the twenty-first century.

This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of the Hague Yearbook of International Law reflects the close ties which have always existed between the AAA and the City of The Hague with its international law institutions, and indicates the Yearbook’s aim of devoting attention to developments taking place in the international law institutions based in The Hague. However, the Yearbook has a broader scope as well: to offer a platform for review of new developments in the field of international law. As of the 2010 Volume, the Yearbook will be compiled by a new and expanded Editorial Board, offering fresh ideas and a new approach. A newly established Advisory Board has also been added, including ICJ Judge Bruno Simma, Serge Brammertz, Prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia (ICTY), Jacomijn J. van Haersolte-van Hof, advocate (advocaat) at HaersolteHof and arbitrator (The Netherlands) and Professor Peter Hilpold, Innsbruck University (Austria). Sections have been created on public international law, private international law, international investment law and international criminal law, containing in-depth articles on current issues. The breadth of the Yearbook’s content thus offers an interesting and valuable illustration of the dynamic developments in the various sub-areas of international law.
