The Unfinished History of European Integration - Carla Hoetink - eBook (9789048540198)
When the Treaty of Lisbon went into effect in December 2009, the event seemed to mark the beginning of a longer phase of institutional consolidation for the EU. Since 2010, however, the EU has faced multiple crises, which have rocked its foundations and deeply challenged the narrative of 'the end of the history of integration'. The military crisis in eastern Ukraine and the refugee crisis call for a joint approach, but in practice reveal the difficulty of maintaining even the appearance of European solidarity and political unanimity. The financial and socio-economic crisis in southern Europe and Brexit present the EU with the latest set of challenges. If seventy years of European integration have taught us anything, it is that fundamental crises as well as moments of rapid institutional change form integral parts of its history. 'The Unfinished History of European Integration' presents the reader with historical and theoretical knowledge on which well-founded judgements can be based. …

The Theory of Democractic Integration - Jaap Hoeksma - eBook (9789462404762)
The Theory of Democractic Integration - Jaap Hoeksma - eBook (9789462404762)
The Theory of Democratic Integration, which will be presented in this treatise, is the first political theory to account for the dual character of the EU as both a Union of States and a Union of Citizens. The new theory brings about a revolutionary breakthrough in EU research as it replaces the traditional Westphalian paradigm of states with the civic perspective of democracy and the rule of law. From this perspective there is no point in governing an organisation of democratic states in an undemocratic manner. At the same time it is equally self-evident that, if two or more democratic states agree to share the exercise of sovereignty in a number of fields with a view to attain common goals, the organisation they establish for this purpose should be democratic too. The Copernican revolution, engendered by the theory of democratic integration, is not only of academic interest. It also has great practical consequences. The first concrete result of the new theory is that it provides for t…

Minor Platforms in Videogame History - Benjamin Nicoll - eBook (9789048540303)
Minor Platforms in Videogame History - Benjamin Nicoll - eBook (9789048540303)
Videogame history is not just a history of one successful technology replacing the next. It is also a history of platforms and communities that never quite made it; that struggled to make their voices heard; that aggravated against the conventions of the day; and that never enjoyed the commercial success or recognition of their major counterparts. In *Minor Platforms in Videogame History*, Benjamin Nicoll argues that 'minor' videogame histories are anything but insignificant. Through an analysis of transitional, decolonial, imaginary, residual, and minor videogame platforms, Nicoll highlights moments of difference and discontinuity in videogame history. From the domestication of vector graphics in the early years of videogame consoles to the 'cloning' of Japanese computer games in South Korea in the 1980s, this book explores case studies that challenge taken-for-granted approaches to videogames, platforms, and their histories.

Prudential regulation of investment firms in the European Union - Paperback (9789013163940)
Prudential regulation of investment firms in the European Union - Paperback (9789013163940)
As of June 2021, a new regulatory regime for investment firms will come into force. What are the building blocks of the past and present legislation and how should they be interpreted? What risks do investment firms face and are these adequately addressed in the new regime? This publication discusses these questions in detail. Traditionally, the prudential regulatory response for investment firms in the European Union has been closely linked with the prudential regulatory response for banks. However, as the actual risk profile of these types of enterprises can differ significantly, the European Commission voiced the need for a new regulatory regime tailored to investment firms. Therefore, as of June 2021, new legislation will come into place for all investment firms within the European Union. Prudential regulation of investment firms in the European Union discusses the risk profile of investment firms. What are the typical risks an investment firm is exposed to when providing investmen…

Improving the European Arrest Warrant
Improving the European Arrest Warrant
The ImprovEAW-project concerns European Arrest Warrant proceedings in seven Member States (Belgium, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, the Netherlands, Poland and Romania). Maastricht Law Series No. 23 contains the country reports for Greece, the Netherlands and Poland. ImprovEAW is a follow up to an earlier project that focused on In Absentia Judgments (Maastricht Law Series No. 12). This book looks at various other aspects of the EAW surrender procedure that are problematic in practice, such as the information to be provided in the European arrest warrant, the status of the issuing authority and differences in implementation in the Member States. It also goes more into detail as it aims to present an alternative to the European Commission’s outdated Handbook on how to issue and execute a European arrest warrant. This study ends with a proposal to create a procedure that complies with the demands of a dual level of protection, which takes place after arrest of the requested person in the execu…

The Modern Idea of History and its Value - Chiel van den Akker - eBook (9789048552054)
The Modern Idea of History and its Value - Chiel van den Akker - eBook (9789048552054)
This is an original and accessible introduction to the modern idea of history and its value, and an indispensable companion to the study of history and its philosophical underpinnings. The book answers two basic questions: What is history? And what is its value? It also shows how the answers to these questions are mutually dependent. The old view that history is the teacher of life, for instance, assumes that the past is a reservoir of examples from which moral lessons for the present can be drawn. The subjects discussed include history as the teacher of life, the need for truth and objectivity, the moral standards of the historian, realism and the value of historical insight, historical explanation and understanding, the intelligibility of the historical process, the tragedy of history, the politics of history-writing, and the close connection between history, narrative, and the desire for justice. These topics are discussed with the help of inspiring and influential histo…

From common market to common democracy - Jaap Hoeksma - Paperback (9789462402799)
From common market to common democracy - Jaap Hoeksma - Paperback (9789462402799)
Since its foundation in 1992 the EU has been developing from an international organisation towards a European democracy. The Maastricht Treaty introduced the citizenship of the Union, while the Treaty of Amsterdam included the concept of democracy in the core values of the EU and 'Lisbon' construed the European Union as a democracy without turning the Union into a State. This development has not been foreseen by politicians and scholars. According to the prevailing theories the EU should have become either a sovereign State of Europe or a Europe of sovereign States. The theory of democratic integration, which is presented in this monograph, replaces the outdated paradigm of the Westphalian system of international relations with the civic perspective of democracy and the rule of law. From this angle, it seems obvious that, if two or more democratic states decide to share the exercise of sovereignty in a number of fields with the view to attain common goals, the organisation they establi…
