Rule of Law: Sustainability and Mutual Trust in a Transforming Europe

The book is the extended version of the inaugural lecture given by Professor Petra Bárd on 21 September 2023 on the occasion of her taking up the Chair in Sustainable Rule of Law at the Research Centre for State and Law (SteR) in the Faculty of Law at Radboud University, Nijmegen. Professor Bárd places the specific manifestation of rule of law deficiencies in the evolution of European criminal justice within a broader constitutional context. She has led the way in reframing the academic and policy debates, so that mutual trust and mutual recognition, the principle guiding EU criminal cooperation, are firmly grounded in the framework of defending and sustaining the inextricably linked values of democracy, the protection of fundamental rights and the rule of law. The inaugural lecture, just like the award of the Chair, is a testament to Professor Bárd’s immense contribution towards understanding and defending the rule of law in Europe in challenging times.

Law for a circular economy - Chris Backes - eBook (9789462747227)

Today humanity uses, on average, the equivalent of 1.6 earths to provide the resources we use and to absorb our waste. A pathway to sustainable resource use is the circular economy. This concept aims at optimising the value of the resources used and to minimise the amount of resources used. The author addresses the question of what kind of law we need to realize a circular economy. He argues that many legal frameworks and rules on the national and the European level will have to be reconsidered, amended and some completely newly framed to foster a truly circular economy. This is the inaugural lecture which Professor Chris Backes delivered on 12 April 2017 on the occasion of accepting the Chair of Environmental and Planning Law at Utrecht University School of Law, Utrecht Centre forWater, Oceans and Sustainability Law.

Overarching views of crime and deviancy - eBook (9789462744387)

On October 1st 1934 Willem P.J. Pompe (1893-1968), Professor of Criminal Law at Utrecht University between 1928 and 1963, founded the ‘Criminological Institute’ (Criminologisch Instituut) within the Faculty of Law of Utrecht University. Pompe initiated a rather influential academic movement, based on multidisciplinary cooperation between jurists, criminologists and psychiatrists. This academic movement is commonly referred to as ‘the Utrecht School’, which had its heyday in the 1950s. In 1974 – forty years after its formation – the Institute was renamed after its founder: the Willem Pompe Instituut voor Strafrechtswetenschappen. And another forty years later, in 2014, the Institute celebrated its eightieth anniversary. This book is written with the aim of adding lustre to this festive occasion. The central theme chosen for this collection of chapters is crossborder research in the fields of criminal law, penitentiary law, criminology, and forensic psychology and psychiatry. Besides a p…

In Courts We Trust

In this farewell speech on the occasion of his retirement as Professor of Comparative Constitutional Law at Maastricht University, given in March 2022, Aalt Willem Heringa discusses the too often ignored role of courts as interpreters of statutes. The courts, by checking the (constitutional) quality of statutes, contribute to the rule of law and parliamentary democracy. Independent courts may add to the confidence in a constitutional and parliamentary system as a whole, by being in a position to decide cases on contentious issues as an authoritative third branch of government. Moreover, courts can also make it visible to all that not only are citizens bound by the law, but that rules and fundamental principles also apply to politicians. Being subject to legal rules is not an indication of weakness, as politicians often want us to believe. On the contrary, it is an expression of strength: the strength of the safeguards for the proper functioning of our political system, which is embedde…

Ministers of Justice in Comparative Perspective - Natalie Fox, Piotr Mikuli, Radosław Puchta - eBook (9789462741904)

This book analyses the institution of Minister of Justice in the constitutional systems of several European countries: the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Austria, France, Italy, and Poland. The research was based on the hypothesis that the Minister of Justice is, in fact, inessential, because the institution is to a large extent incompatible with the principles of the separation of powers and the independence of the judiciary. Certain competences currently assigned to this institution might be allocated to other bodies and departments, including those that function as part of the government (the Cabinet), without any prejudicial effect on the functioning of the state. The book is aimed at academics in the field of comparative constitutional law. Piotr Mikuli, Ph.D. (habil.), is a professor at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków and head of the Chair in Comparative Constitutional Law. His interests include constitutional and administrative justice, political systems and constitutio…

Does the Law of Succession Reflect Cultural Differences? - Reinhard Zimmermann - eBook (9789462748859)

This is the published version of the first Maastricht Private Law Lecture which was delivered by Reinhard Zimmermann on 27 January 2017. According to a widely held view, the law of succession is shaped by the cultural values of the society within which it prevails. Related to this is the perception that the law of succession is marked by great stability. It is thus resistant both to change and to legal harmonization. Comparative research, too, has traditionally been regarded as impractical and unrewarding. In his lecture Zimmermann challenges this view. He points to transsystemic constants as well as transsystemic tendencies of development, to outdated peculiarities and thinking patterns as well as to the benefits to be gained by critical reflection, and he analyses historical examples of the phenomenon of legal charge and the reception of rules and ideas. The focus is, throughout, on two central problem areas within the province of the law of succession: testamentary formalities and t…

Lex Ludica: Soccer rules revisited - Robert C.R. Siekmann - eBook (9789490951405)

Lex ludica (game rules) is a branch of sports law that has never been studied in the academic community nor beyond. There are no learned writings on the subject and consequently, there is a considerable gap in science. Several years ago, Dr. Robert Siekmann decided to undertake a pilot study into the Laws of the Game of association football, which is World Sport No. 1. This eventually led to the present publication. Lex Ludica: Soccer Rules Revisited describes the development of the Laws of the Game from ancient times to the present day. A large part of the book focuses on the current text of the Laws. In May 2016, the International Football Association Board (IFAB), the gameís law-making body, published a new text of the Laws of the Game. This new version is presented as a comprehensive revision of the Laws of the Game and was adopted in order ëto increase the universality of the Laws by making them easily understood so football throughout the world benefits from consistent interpreta…
