Download or read book The Evolution of EU Law written by Paul P. Craig and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 985 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union has undergone major changes in the last decade, including Treaty reform, and a significant expansion of activity in foreign and security policy, and justice and home affairs. In the first edition of this influential textbook, a team of leading lawyers and political scientists reflected upon the important developments in their chosen area over the time since the EC was formed. This new edition continues this analysis ten years on. Taking into account the social and political background, and without losing sight of the changes that came before, in each chapter the contributors analyze the principle themes and assess the legal and political forces that have shaped its development. Each author addresses a specific topic, event, or theme, from the European Court of Justice to Treaty reform; the enlargement of the EU to administrative law; the effect of EU law on culture to climate change. Together the chapters tell the story of the rapid development of EU law - its past, present, and future.

This book was released on 2012-09-03 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En leur temps, l’élaboration jurisprudentielle d’un droit communautaire des droits fondamentaux et la proclamation de la Charte des droits fondamentaux de l’Union n’ont pas manqué de poser la question d’une complémentarité et/ou d’une concurrence avec le système de la Convention européenne des droits de l’homme. Mais les termes du débat semblent désormais renouvelés depuis que l’entrée en vigueur du traité de Lisbonne a fait sortir la Charte de la catégorie des textes déclaratoires et engagé l’Union à adhérer à la Convention. La place et le poids de ces deux instruments s’en voyant modifiés, la période invite à repenser les relations entre les deux systèmes de garantie des droits de l’homme dans l’espace européen. Aussi l’ouvrage veut-il davantage s’intéresser à la théorie de l’équivalence des protections, à la fois comme élément de cohérence matérielle (dans le contenu des garanties offertes par la Charte et la Convention) et comme instrument d’articulation fonctionnelle (entre les contrôles respectivement assurés par la Cour de justice de l’Union européenne et par la Cour européenne des droits de l’homme), en intégrant une réflexion sur ce que pourrait ou devrait impliquer à cet égard l’adhésion en termes d’ajustement de leurs compétences. En prise sur les développements les plus récents, l’ouvrage se propose ainsi de jeter un nouveau regard sur l’avenir de la protection juridictionnelle des droits fondamentaux en Europe. Il intéressera les praticiens, confrontés aux problèmes de la coexistence et de l’articulation entre droit de l’Union et droit de la Convention, les professeurs, les chercheurs et les étudiants du troisième cycle.

Download or read book The Rule of Law in International Affairs written by Ian Brownlie and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 1998-08-26 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume consists of a carefully edited version of the General Course on Public International Law delivered at the Hague Academy of International Law to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the foundation of the United Nations. The author brings to them not only his background of academic distinction, but his experience as a practitioner concerned with major international legal issues. The rule of law in international affairs is a question of perennial concern but it is of greater moment these days for a number of reasons. The active agenda of the Security Council and its relative solidarity creates a paradox. Its increased political power is a source of hope but the modalities of the exercise of power present problems of principle and of legal concern. Another area of concern is the International Court, which has had a successful record since the early eighties and provides one of the guarantees of the maintenance of legality. Recent successes of the Court include the effective resolution of the territorial dispute between Chad and Libya. The general level of compliance with its decisions by States is impressive. Yet its success is matched not by encouragement and enhancement of its facilities but by United Nations financial constraints which hinder its work and, ultimately, may threaten its independence in relation to the political organs of the United Nations.
Download or read book Africa from the Sixteenth to the Eighteenth Century written by Bethwell A. Ogot and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The result of years of work by scholars from all over the world, The UNESCO General History of Africa reflects how the different peoples of Africa view their civilizations and shows the historical relationships between the various parts of the continent. Historical connections with other continents demonstrate Africa's contribution to the development of human civilization. Each volume is lavishly illustrated and contains a comprehensive bibliography. This fifth volume of the acclaimed series covers the history of the continent from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the close of the eighteenth century in which two themes emerge: first, the continuing internal evolution of the states and cultures of Africa during this period second, the increasing involvement of Africa in external trade--with major but unforeseen consequences for the whole world. In North Africa, we see the Ottomans conquer Egypt. South of the Sahara, some of the larger, older states collapse, and new power bases emerge. Traditional religions continue to coexist with both Christianity (suffering setbacks) and Islam (in the ascendancy). Along the coast, particularly of West Africa, Europeans establish a trading network which, with the development of New World plantation agriculture, becomes the focus of the international slave trade. The immediate consequences of this trade for Africa are explored, and it is argued that the long-term global consequences include the foundation of the present world-economy with all its built-in inequalities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le 1er décembre 2009, entrait en vigueur le traité de Lisbonne. Par ce biais, la Charte des droits fondamentaux acquérait la valeur contraignante pleine et entière dont elle s’était vu initialement privée lors de sa proclamation par le Parlement européen, le Conseil et la Commission, le 7 décembre 2000. En moins de vingt années, l’application de la Charte a conduit à la production d’une jurisprudence abondante et complexe, tant à l’égard des droits et libertés qu’elle consacre – songeons par exemple au principe non bis idem, à la matière de la protection des données à caractière personnel, ou encore à l’interdicton des discriminations –, qu’en lien avec les clauses transversales qui en gouvernent l’interprétation et la mise en œuvre : délimitation de son invocablité vis-à-vis des actes étatiques, lien avec la Convention européenne des droits de l’Homme et articulation avec la protection constitutionnelle des droits et libertés. Une synthèse de cet acquis, et des perspectives qu’il laisse entrevoir, a paru utile, voire indispensable. Le présent ouvrage s’y emploie sous la forme d’un commentaire article par article, systématique, de la Charte des droits fondamentaux de l’Union européenne du 7 décembre 2000, telle qu’adaptée le 12 décembre 2007 à Strasbourg, à laquelle l’article 6 du traité sur l’Union européenne confère la même valeur juridique que les traités constitutifs. Chaque commentaire intègre les références doctrinales et jurisprudentielles les plus récentes et les plus pertinentes sur les sujets traités, et opère les renvois aux autres instruments de protection des droits de l’Homme susceptibles d’offrir un éclairage à la Charte. Issu des efforts conjugués d’une équipe franco-belge, cet ouvrage croise les regards des universitaires, des chercheurs et des praticiens, à l’image du public auquel il est destiné.
Download or read book Connecting Histories of Education written by Barnita Bagchi and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of education in the modern world is a history of transnational and cross-cultural influence. This collection explores those influences in (post) colonial and indigenous education across different geographical contexts. The authors emphasize how local actors constructed their own adaptation of colonialism, identity, and autonomy, creating a multi-centric and entangled history of modern education. In both formal as well as informal aspects, they demonstrate that transnational and cross-cultural exchanges in education have been characterized by appropriation, re-contextualization, and hybridization, thereby rejecting traditional notions of colonial education as an export of pre-existing metropolitan educational systems.
Download or read book The UN International Criminal Tribunals written by William A. Schabas and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-07-20 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a guide to the law that applies in the three international criminal tribunals, for the former Yugoslavia, Rwanda and Sierra Leone, set up by the UN during the period 1993 to 2002 to deal with atrocities and human rights abuses committed during conflict in those countries. Building on the work of an earlier generation of war crimes courts, these tribunals have developed a sophisticated body of law concerning the elements of the three international crimes (genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes), and forms of participation in such crimes, as well as other general principles of international criminal law, procedural matters and sentencing. The legacy of the tribunals will be indispensable as international law moves into a more advanced stage, with the establishment of the International Criminal Court. Their judicial decisions are examined here, as well as the drafting history of their statutes and other contemporary sources.
