  1. European Non-Discrimination Law

    European Non-Discrimination Law

    A Comparison of EU Law and the ECHR in the Field of Non-Discrimination and Freedom of Religion in Public Employment with an Emphasis on the Islamic He
    Book | 1st edition 2012 | Europe | Sarah Haverkort-Speekenbrink
    Contemporary multicultural issues in Europe raise the question whether the overlap between the non-discrimination regimes of the European Union (EU) and the Council of Europe in the field of public employment may lead to conflicting case law. Would the Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) address potential sex, race and religious discrimination in a similar manner or would the Courts take a different approach?

  2. Standard work: an anachronism?

    Standard work: an anachronism?

    Book | 1st edition 2012 | Europe | Jan Buelens, John A. Pearson
    This book investigates whether one of the basic norms underlying contemporary labour law in the EU - standard work - has been subject to drastic changes. Standard work, usually defined as fulltime, permanent employment for a single employer, has traditionally been the most common form of work structure, and various legal obligations and protections are strongly associated with it. However, standard work seems to have increasingly come under attack in recent years.

  4. Mens rea and defences in European criminal law

    Mens rea and defences in European criminal law

    Book | 1st edition 2012 | Europe | Jeroen Blomsma
    In the past decades, the process of European integration has influenced all fields of law, and eventually also criminal law. European legislation now requires Member States to criminalize all sorts of harmful conduct but does not determine the full scope of criminal liability, omitting to define general principles of criminal law such as ‘intention’. This book aims to remedy this by establishing what mens rea and defences should look like in European criminal law.

  6. The UNESCO Convention on the Diversity of Cultural Expressions

    The UNESCO Convention on the Diversity of Cultural Expressions

    A Tale of Fragmentation in International Law
    Book | 1st edition 2012 | World | Toshiyuki Kono, Steven Van Uytsel
    This book fills a gap in the literature on how the Convention for the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions positions itself within the bigger field of public international law. Several studies have been undertaken regarding the relationship of this Convention with the trade regime. However, the drafting process of the Convention brought many more than only trade issues to the forefront, such as heritage law, human rights law, or development law issues. This book investigates to what extent the Convention has impact on these various fields of law and thus aims at clarifying the Convention’s contribution to the fragmentation of public international law.

  7. Corruption: A Violation of Human Rights and a Crime Under International Law?

    Corruption: A Violation of Human Rights and a Crime Under International Law?

    Book | 1st edition 2012 | World | Martine Boersma
    Corruption currently receives an increasing amount of attention from scholars and practitioners in various disciplines, including law. While the phenomenon is as old as mankind, the last fifteen years saw the rise of many anti-corruption treaties, aimed at criminalisation, prevention and cooperation. At the same time, there seems to be relatively little work done on corruption in the field of human rights law or international criminal law. This book argues that these areas of law can certainly contribute to fighting corruption, by giving a human face to both victims and perpetrators.1

  11. Cross-Border Welfare State

    Cross-Border Welfare State

    Immigration, social security & integration
    Book | 1st edition 2012 | Europe | Gijsbert Vonk
    The position of non-EU migrants in social security is problematic. Many European states reduce access to social benefits for categories of migrants whose presence is not desired. At the same time the scope of application of the national systems is becoming more confined to the national borders, as, for example, countries take measures to reduce the exportability of benefits. These two trends of exclusion and retrenchment particularly affect irregular immigrants and persons moving between Europe and developing countries who are not protected by any bilateral social security agreements.

  14. Linked Contracts

    Linked Contracts

    Book | 1st edition 2012 | World | Marco Loos, Ilse Samoy, Marco B.M. Loos
    Modern society is full of linked contracts: a plurality of separately concluded contracts that are somehow interrelated. However, contract law is still primarily centred on traditional contractual relations between (just) two parties. This book therefore explores the legal consequences of the existence of linked contracts. It thereby provides insights for practice and academia in this new phenomenon.
