  3. Irregular Migration as a Challenge for Democracy

    Irregular Migration as a Challenge for Democracy

    Book | 1st edition 2018 | United Kingdom | Elzbieta Kuzelewska, Amy Weatherburn, Dariusz Kloza
    'Immigration has emerged as the defining issue of our times. [...] The challenge that the immigration issue poses to the future of European democracy is real. Immigration itself is a genuine challenge, but the fundamental challenge that immigration brings to the fore is a domestic one, it is about fundamentally different political visions that cut through the citizenry of Europe's nation states. With that, it becomes critically important how these nation-states, through their democratic institutions, tackle immigration. [...] we need both the scholarly analysis and reflection presented in this volume, and we need informed political innovation within and between Europe's nation-states.'

  4. The Law of the River

    The Law of the River

    Transboundary River Basin Management and Multi-Level Approaches to Water Quantity Management
    Book | 1st edition 2018 | United Kingdom | Cathy Suykens

Moreover, a case study of the river basin mechanism governing the Delaware River in the United States has been conducted with the aim of identifying lessons learned for the EU. The key theme running through the book is based on the social-ecological resilience theory and the water security paradigm.

  7. The Liability of Public Authorities in Comparative Perspective

    The Liability of Public Authorities in Comparative Perspective

    Book | 1st edition 2016 | United Kingdom | Ken Oliphant
    In recent decades, the liability of public authorities has been one of the main areas of development in tort law in Europe, with major reforms implemented or considered at a national level, and a steady stream of major court decisions. During the same period, ‘Member State liability’ has also been recognised in the law of the EU, and the interplay of principles of national and EU law – and additionally the ‘just satisfaction’ jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights – evidently warrants close attention.
