Download or read book Developments in Services of General Interest written by Erika Szyszczak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-18 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the third book in the series Legal Issues of Services of General Interest. The book focuses upon a set of research questions on the recent developments in the emergence of services of general interest (SGIs) as a distinct EU concept. This includes, inter alia, the emergence of universal service obligations and the way they are regulated in the EU in primary and secondary law, the range of soft law communications adopted by the Commission to create a distinctive EU concept of SGIs, the residual role of hard law in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), the special problems created by Social Services of General Economic Interest and the interaction of procurement and state aid law with SGIs. A new perspective is offered in this book: some of the issues faced by the EU in accommodating SGIs into a regulatory framework are found also in the policy of the WTO and in least developed countries (LDCs).
Download or read book Constitutional Law in Greece written by Philippos C. Spyropoulos and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this very useful analysis of constitutional law in Greece provides essential information on the country’s sources of constitutional law, its form of government, and its administrative structure. Lawyers who handle transnational matters will appreciate the clarifications of particular terminology and its application. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes the specific points at which constitutional law affects the interpretation of legal rules and procedure. Thorough coverage by a local expert fully describes the political system, the historical background, the role of treaties, legislation, jurisprudence, and administrative regulations. The discussion of the form and structure of government outlines its legal status, the jurisdiction and workings of the central state organs, the subdivisions of the state, its decentralized authorities, and concepts of citizenship. Special issues include the legal position of aliens, foreign relations, taxing and spending powers, emergency laws, the power of the military, and the constitutional relationship between church and state. Details are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for both practising and academic jurists. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Greece will welcome this guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative constitutional law.

Download or read book Droit de la r gulation service public et int gration r gionale Comparaisons et commentaires written by Gérard Marcou and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Qu'est-ce que la régulation en droit ? Est-ce une alternative au service public dans un monde concurrentiel ou concourt-elle au renouvellement de la notion de service public ? Ce livre tente de répondre à ces questions à partir d'une analyse de droit comparé. Il en résulte que la régulation se définit comme une fonction de la puissance publique, partagée entre plusieurs autorités, garantissant un certain niveau de satisfaction de besoins collectifs par des activités de nature économique sous un régime concurrentiel. La régulation est donc une fonction pérenne. Elle ne s'oppose pas, en elle-même, à la notion de service public ; mais en nécessite l'adaptation. L'institutionnalisation de la régulation s'accompagne d'une certaine banalisation, mais aussi d'un durcissement de son régime juridique, qui se reflète dans le renforcement du contrôle juridictionnel. Le premier volume présente les résultats de l'analyse comparative, un ensemble de synthèses thématiques, plusieurs expériences étrangères à l'Union européenne et des commentaires du point de vue de la science économique, de la théorie du droit et de la science politique. Le second volume présente les rapports nationaux sur les Etats choisis de l'Union européenne (Allemagne, Belgique, Danemark, Espagne, Finlande, France, Grèce, Italie, Portugal, Royaume-Uni) ; les Pays-Bas sont traités dans l'analyse comparative du premier volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The much debated Services Directive was adopted on December 12, 2006.

Dagmar Schiek introduces the European Social Model from a more general point of view, whereas Ulla Neergaard analyzes the welfare services that are considered services of general (economic) interest. Lynn Roseberry focuses on the general principle of non-discrimination. Elisabetta Bergamini, Jukka Snell, and Ruth Nielsen address the more operational chapters of the Services Directive as they focus on the freedom of establishment, the freedom to provide services, and the rights of recipients of services respectively. Finally, Frank Hendrickx addresses the issue of social dumping.

Download or read book Autonomy of Sport in Europe written by Jean-Loup Chappelet and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the impact that successive court rulings have had on the organisation of the sports movement in the past 15 years, the autonomy of non-governmental sports organisations has become a highly topical concern in Europe. It is also closely related to the issue of governance, the subject of previous Council of Europe studies. The Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) decided to explore the concept of autonomy in greater depth by studying the conceptual, political, legal, economic and psycho-sociological aspects of the subject. This study was carried out at the request of the EPAS by the Swiss Graduate School of Public Administration (IDHEAP) on the basis of a questionnaire sent to public authorities in charge of sport and to national and international umbrella sports organisations. In addition to an analysis of the data obtained, documents produced by public authorities and sports organisations on this emerging issue are presented. This study contributes to a better understanding of the concept of autonomy and offers a clear picture of the issues involved.

Download or read book Wealth through Integration written by Elias T. Ayuk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Could regional integration be a first step toward joining the global market? In a context where liberalizing trade has not produced the expected gains in developing countries and growth in global trade has not led to the expected economic growth, an alternative solution has emerged. This new paradigm suggests that trade liberalization should be accompanied by public investment. However, by its very nature, trade liberalization leads to a reduction in revenues from duties and taxes, which means that the available resources for public investments will also be reduced. There are now solid arguments for encouraging the less-developed countries to first emphasize regional integration before trying to access the global market. This book explores the issues linked to regional integration in West Africa and presents empirical data about the experiences in = West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) countries to converge their economies. It also examines how these efforts, which make a major contribution to regional integration, influence poverty reduction in the economic and monetary community. It will be of interest to researchers working in this area. Elias T. Ayuk is Director of the United Nations University Institute for Natural Resources in Africa in Accra, Ghana, and was formerly a senior program specialist at the International Development Research Centre.

Book excerpt: Praise and Reviews `An important new book.` African Review of Business and Technology Legal harmonization is an essential step to encouraging foreign investment in Africa and the development of sustainable pan-African trade.This important new book explains the new system of law, now being developed and promoted by OHADA. OHADA - the Organization for the Harmonization of Business Law in Africa - is an international organization currently comprising 16 Member States: Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, the Federal Islamic Republic of the Comoros, Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal and Togo. As a result of the creation of OHADA, business law in these African countries has recently entered a new era of rapid modernization and harmonization. OHADA's essential aim is to promote economic integration and development by creating a secure legal framework for the conduct of business in Africa. In order to achieve this aim, OHADA has enacted a number of laws, known as Uniform Acts, on various aspects of business law including commercial and company laws, insolvency, securities and arbitration. These Uniform Acts are directly applicable throughout the Member States. This book offers an overview of the aims and achievements of the OHADA system and explains in depth the legislation that has been issued to date. It will be invaluable to legal and business development executives in major global companies, international law firms, accountants and management consultants, students of international business law, government agencies, and NGOs concerned with Africa and African business people.
