Download or read book The Constitution of France written by Sophie Boyron and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-12-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The centrepiece of this work is the French Constitution of 1958, portrayed by the author as an innovative hybrid construct whose arrival brought the constitutional stability that had eluded France for centuries. But the creation of the 1958 Constitution was not an isolated act; it represents part of an evolutionary process which continues to this day. Even though it is codified, the constitution of the Fifth Republic has evolved so markedly that some commentators have dubbed the present institutional balance the 'Sixth Republic'. It is this dynamic of the constitution which this book seeks to explain. At the same time the book shows how the French constitution has not developed in isolation, but reflects to some extent the global movement of ideas, ideas which sometimes challenge the very foundations of the 1958 Constitution.
Download or read book Making Sense of European Union Law written by Monica Claes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-12 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reflects on selected issues of European law in dialogue with leading legal scholar Bruno De Witte, whose work has enlightened generations of students, scholars and practitioners of European law. The volume is designed to mark the impressive academic oeuvre of a great legal mind and true academic whose elegant and insightful writings have decisively contributed to the advancement of the study of European law. The contributions attempt to 'make sense of European Union law' reflecting Bruno's mission as a legal scholar and commenting on some of the themes that he has worked on: constitutional Europe, differentiated Europe, social and educational Europe and minorities Europe. It culminates in reflections on the very nature of Bruno's scholarship and his academic persona. Not only is this book a public recognition and an expression of appreciation for all that Bruno has offered to the European legal community but also an invitation to challenge the way many scholars think of academic careers and their ways to success.

Book excerpt: Ce volume contient les rapports du séminaire organisé par la Commission de Venise en coopération avec la Cour constitutionnelle de la République de Bulgarie à Sofia (Bulgarie), les 28 et 29 mai 2004. Le droit électoral et la coopération avec les cours constitutionnelles et les juridictions équivalentes sont deux des piliers de l'activité de la Commission de Venise depuis sa création en 1990. Cependant, c'est la première fois que la Commission organise un débat d'un tel niveau se concentrant sur le rôle joué par la justice constitutionnelle dans le processus électoral. Les rapports traitent de sujets fondamentaux tels que les avantages et les inconvénients des différents systèmes électoraux, la jurisprudence des plus hautes juridictions nationales sur le contentieux électoral, la participation des étrangers au processus électoral au niveau local, les droits électoraux des individus ayant la nationalité de plusieurs Etats européens et les développements possibles du droit électoral à l'intérieur de l'Union européenne.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Peut-on et doit-on enseigner les faits religieux à l'école ? À quelles conditions un savoir rigoureux et scientifique sur cette question peut-il être dispensé ? Au moment où, plus que jamais, le religieux est l'objet de multiples projections, qu'il est invoqué, voire instrumentalisé, par des acteurs du champ politique et souvent réduit à la violence qu'il génère, il est important que tous ceux qui ont pour mission de produire et de transmettre la connaissance afin de former les futurs citoyens puissent accéder à des outils de réflexion adaptés. Face à des phénomènes religieux, souvent considérés comme excessivement porteurs de charge émotionnelle, il est tentant, pour les autorités politiques comme pour les enseignants, d'éviter de les prendre en considération. Le parti pris de ce livre, fruit du travail de nombreux spécialistes, est d'aller à l'encontre de ce point trop souvent aveugle de l'enseignement. Instruments par excellence de médiation entre les élèves et les professeurs, les manuels scolaires qui traitent des faits religieux sont ici analysés avec le souci de les objectiver au moyen de la méthode historique et de la comparaison non seulement entre des pays de cultures très différentes, mais aussi entre des conceptions idéologiques hétérogènes, voire concurrences, au sein d'un même pays. À la hauteur des défis éducatifs actuels, l'intention de cet ouvrage est de mettre en perspective les institutions scolaires, les contenus enseignés et les pratiques pédagogiques afin que le religieux soit apprécié de la manière la plus juste et qu'il participe à la compréhension d'un monde complexe."--Page 4 of cover.

Download or read book The Constitution of Japan written by Shigenori Matsui and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Japan boasts the second largest economy in the world and almost two thousand years of history. Yet, its first modern constitution, the Meiji Constitution, was not enacted until comparatively recently (1889). Since then, following World War II, Japan adopted its current Constitution, the Japanese Constitution of 1946. This book is designed to explain the outline of Japan's Constitution, together with a number of its unique characteristics and to offer an historical background and context which help explain its significance. Major topics covered include the constitutional history of Japan, fundamental principles of the Constitution, the people and the Emperor, the Diet and legislative power, Cabinet and executive power, and the Judiciary and judicial power. Also discussed is the protection of fundamental human rights, individual rights - including freedom of expression,economic freedoms, and social rights - pacifism and national defence, and the constitutional amendment and reform. Although the Japanese Constitution was enacted under the strong influence of the United States Constitution, many of its features are very different. For instance the existence of an Emperor, the long dominance of a conservative party over the Government, the relatively strong power of government bureaucrats, the absence of a leadership role in the Prime Minister, the small role the judiciary play in solving constitutional disputes and the struggle over national defence. Written in an accessible style and comprehensive in content, the reader will find this account of the constitutional law of Japan both unique and stimulating.
