Download or read book Representations of Justice written by Antoine Masson and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public understanding of law is gleaned from the cultural representation of justice which, in turn, reflects popular culture. Movies, caricatures, portrayal of trials by media or crime fiction shape the image of justice. However these representations play an important role in the legal system itself through the representation of truth as conveyed by litigating parties in their arguments. Studying how justice is represented in society is thus interesting for citizens who want to understand the popular culture but also for lawyers who want to understand theirs clients' expectations. This book explores in a multidisciplinary way the aspects of those representations of justice in their various forms in popular culture and in economics.
Download or read book Intellectual Property Rights and the Protection of Traditional Knowledge written by Dewani, Nisha Dhanraj and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-12-27 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional knowledge is largely oral collective of knowledge, beliefs, and practices of indigenous people on sustainable use and management of resources. The survival of this knowledge is at risk due to various difficulties faced by the holders of this knowledge, the threat to the cultural survival of many communities, and the international lack of respect and appreciation of traditional knowledge. However, the greatest threat is that of appropriation by commercial entities in derogation of the rights of the original holders. Though this practice is morally questionable, in the absence of specific legal provisions, it cannot be regarded as a crime. Intellectual Property Rights and the Protection of Traditional Knowledge is a collection of innovative research on methods for protecting indigenous knowledge including studies on intellectual property rights and sovereignty rights. It also analyzes the contrasting interests of developing and developed countries in the protection of traditional knowledge as an asset. While highlighting topics including biopiracy, dispute resolution, and patent law, this book is ideally designed for legal experts, students, industry professionals, and practitioners seeking current research on the development and enforcement of intellectual property rights in relation to traditional knowledge.

Download or read book Les strat gies juridiques des entreprises written by Thierry Côme and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Son ambition est, à partir d'une analyse de l'évolution et de la réalité de l'environnement juridique, de fournir aux lecteurs des éléments de formulation de la stratégie intégrant cette dimension. En effet, que l'entreprise soit petite ou grande, elle s'insère dans un environnement juridique, subit des contraintes légales et réglementaires et doit gérer des conflits, quelquefois judiciaires. L'intention de cet ouvrage synthétique est de proposer des concepts et des outils afin d'enrichir la pensée stratégique des managers actuels ou futurs. Mais il ne s'agit pas de distinguer réflexion et action car, notamment en matière de management stratégique, ces deux aspects sont par évidence indissociables. Les développements proposés prennent ainsi leur source dans l'observation de problèmes et de solutions stratégiques.

Download or read book Margin Squeeze in the Electronic Communications Sector written by Anna Renata Pisarkiewicz and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2018-06-22 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Margin squeeze is a form of abuse of a dominant position in which a vertically integrated company reduces the margin between the price charged to competitors and the price charged to consumers, which can have the effect of excluding a competitor from the market. In the decade or so since the liberalisation of network industries, margin squeeze has become a major source of concern among competition authorities and courts, particularly pronounced in the electronic communications sector. Because some of the adopted decisions show significant inconsistencies in approach, and legal certainty remains elusive in this area, this book which provides an extremely thorough analysis is both timely and of great practical value. The author provides an in-depth examination of margin squeeze allegations in the electronic communications sector with a view to developing a more advanced and comprehensive analysis of principles which should guide ex post assessment of margin squeeze. Issues and topics covered include: – scope of intervention in margin squeeze cases both for national regulatory and national competition authorities; – conditions for sanctioning margin squeeze under Article 102; – methodological and practical difficulties in identifying a margin squeeze; – methodology employed in margin squeeze cases and its regulatory aspects; – assessment of the ability and incentives of regulated firms to engage in a margin squeeze; and – situations when competition law is used to address the deficits of regulation and regulatory failures. It also includes a critical comparison of the vertical foreclosure analysis undertaken in margin squeeze cases with the approach adopted in the EU Non-Horizontal Merger Guidelines. Throughout the analysis, margin squeeze treatment in the European Union and its Member States is examined in light of the diverging approach adopted by the US Supreme Court. The increasing complexity of the electronic communications market can only further confound an already complex assessment of price squeezes, and one can expect that claims of anticompetitive margin squeeze in liberalised network industries will continue to be high on the enforcement agenda of competition authorities for years to come. In light of the need for a coherent, or at least predictable, sentencing policy to provide relative legal certainty, the research in this book proves invaluable. The analysis and conclusions discussed in this book will be welcomed by policymakers, regulators, and lawyers working in the areas of competition law and electronic communications law.
Download or read book Preventing Corporate Corruption written by Stefano Manacorda and published by Springer Science & Business. This book was released on 2014-04-28 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the results of a two-year international research project conducted for the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNDOC) to investigate and provide solutions for reducing bribery and corruption in corporations and institutions. It starts with an empirical case study on the effectiveness of a set of self-regulation rules adopted by multinational companies in the energy sector. Second, it explores the context and factors leading to corruption internationally (and the relationships between domestic criminal law and self-regulation). Third, it examines guidelines for the adoption of compliance programs developed by international institutions, to serve as models for the future. The principle result of the book is a three-pronged Anti-Bribery Corruption Model (so called ABC Model), endorsed by the United Nations, intended as a corruption prevention tool intended to be adopted by private corporations. This work provides a common, research-based standard for anti-bribery compliance programs, with international applications. This work will be of interest to researchers studying Criminology and Criminal Justice, particularly in the areas of organized crime and corruption, as well as related areas like Business Ethics and Comparative International Law.

Download or read book Droit de la finance alternative written by Jean-Marc Moulin and published by Bruylant. This book was released on 2017-05-11 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La finance est en crise ; mais elle est indispensable à la vie des hommes en société. Cependant, il serait abusif de considérer "la finance" comme un tout homogène. En effet, loin de la finance conventionnelle qui fait la une de l'actualité, il existe une finance dite alternative qui tente de placer et de maintenir l'Homme au centre de son projet et à l'horizon de son ambition. Cet ouvrage, premier du genre, se propose de présenter sous forme d'études réalisées par des spécialistes du droit financier, les manifestations de cette finance alternative, les outils, instruments et techniques juridiques qui existent et qui permettent de concilier finance et humanisme. À travers l'analyse des critères de développement durable ou religieux appliqués à la finance, des monnaies alternatives, du microcrédit, de la notation extra-financière, du mutualisme et du coopératisme en finance, du crowdfunding, des fonds éthiques, du financement associatif, du financement alternatif de l'habitat ou du soutien des collectivités publiques aux entreprises, ce livre fait, en France comme en Espagne, au Royaume-Uni, en Grèce et au Canada, un tour d'horizon complet de ce segment du secteur financier souvent méconnu et qui offre néanmoins aux Hommes de réaliser leurs projets dans la perspective d'un mieux-être collectif. Pour rompre avec l'idée que la finance n'est que spéculation et prédation.
Download or read book Les strat gies juridiques des entreprises written by Antoine Masson and published by Éditions Larcier. This book was released on 2009-07-13 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce 8 avril 2010, cet ouvrage, dirigé par Antoine Masson, a remporté le prix 2010 du Cercle Montesquieu remis par le renommé avocat d’affaires parisien, Jean-Michel Darrois. Le Cercle Montesquieu regroupe les directeurs juridiques des grandes entreprises françaises et récompense chaque année le meilleur ouvrage en droit des affaires qui assiste le directeur juridique dans sa mission. Ce prix ô combien prestigieux s’inscrit dans la volonté de Larcier de développer son offre en matière de « Droit, management et stratégies ». Larcier y consacrera d’ailleurs tout prochainement une collection spécifique. Elle aura l’ambition de devenir une référence dans le monde francophone pour les travaux ayant trait à l’activité juridique des entreprises et à l’utilisation des outils du management pour mesurer la performance juridique des entreprises. Elle sera axée sur ce qui s’annonce comme la prochaine évolution scientifique majeure après l’analyse économique du droit. Elle se proposera d’explorer, à partir d’exemples concrets, des sujets novateurs et d’actualité comme la diffusion de l'innovation juridique, les stratégies judiciaires de déstabilisation, ou encore la gestion des risques juridiques et des litiges. Destinée à un public de managers, de professionnels du droit et de chercheurs dans les domaines du droit, de l’économie et de la gestion, cette collection bénéficiera de l’expertise académique et professionnelle du Centre Européen de Droit et d’Économie de l’ESSEC de Paris. Présentation de l'ouvrage : Aujourd’hui encore, les entreprises perçoivent trop souvent le droit comme une contrainte. Pourtant, mis au service de la stratégie, le droit peut constituer pour elles un moyen efficace d'optimiser leurs actions et d’accroître leur performance. Dépassant les usages attendus des normes économiques, cet ouvrage, à la croisée du management et du droit, tente d’analyser les différentes possibilités de jeu sur le droit et avec le droit.
Download or read book Firm strategies and public policy in integrated Europe 1950 1980 written by Marine Moguen-Toursel and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce livre collectif s'appuie sur l'atelier pluridisciplinaire de jeunes chercheurs qui s'est tenu à Louvain-la-Neuve les 11-13 juin 2003. Il se penche sur des cas concrets dans les secteurs du transport routier, de l'informatique et des télécommunications des années 1950 aux années 1980. Il étudie la naissance difficile et conflictuelle d'une « expertise » des acteurs sur le terrain nouveau de l'Europe intégrée. Tandis que les entreprises découvrent l'importance d'agir sur le processus de décision en marche, elles se voient attribuer une place dans cette concertation participative. Ce nouveau rôle nécessite l'accumulation de compétences techniques élargies et la multiplication de contacts avec les autres acteurs. Ensemble, ils participent à la délimitation du cadre communautaire (à travers l'élaboration des normes techniques, l'harmonisation de la fiscalité, la régulation des aides d'État, etc.) et entendent y défendre au mieux leurs intérêts. Cela peut être l'occasion d'oppositions frontales, souvent difficiles à contourner. De nouveaux apprentissages sont alors nécessaires pour tâcher d'avancer dans l'harmonisation communautaire. This collection of papers derives from the multidisciplinary workshop of young researchers which took place in Louvain-la-Neuve on 11-13 June 2003. It is based on actual case studies in the sectors of transport, data-processing and telecommunications between the 1950s and the 1980s. It analyses the long and difficult process for those involved in building «expertise» in the new field of an integrated Europe. At the same time as firms discovered the importance of influencing the decision-making process at work, they were given a place in this participative process. This new role implies the accumulation of enlarged technical competencies and the multiplication of contacts with other economic actors. Together, they have taken part in the demarcation of the Community framework, through the elaboration of technical standards, tax harmonisation, state aids regulation, and so on, and have defended their interests in this framework as best they could. This could provoke strong opposition, which was difficult to overcome. In this case, a process of learning and understanding was necessary on both sides in order to advance Community harmonisation.
