European Union and its Neighbours in a Globalized World

This open access book presents a thorough, multidisciplinary examination of children’s rights in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) with a focus on Lithuania. Pursuing a comparative approach, it explores various aspects of children’s rights as established in constitutional, civil, administrative and criminal law in the region, while also discussing emerging issues. The book shares unique insights into the challenges and progress specific to individual CEE countries, many of which have undergone significant political, social, and legal transformations in recent decades. The comparative analysis of practices and legal frameworks between Lithuania and other countries in the region and across various CEE countries is a key feature of the book. By comparing practices, case law and legal regulations across different CEE countries, it highlights both the diversity and the common challenges in the region. Moreover, such a comparative perspective is invaluable for policymakers, practitioners, and academics in terms of identifying best practices and learning from different countries’ experiences. The respective chapters offer evidence-based insights and recommendations to guide the development of more effective and rights-based approaches to child protection. While aiming to enhance awareness and understanding of children’s rights, the book also seeks to fill a gap in the literature by focusing on the CEE region, an area often underrepresented and overlooked in global discussions on children’s rights. Bringing together a wide range of theoretical and empirical research from Lithuania and other CEE countries, it features contributions by researchers from the Baltic states, Poland, Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia, and Romania to provide a more holistic understanding of the challenges and advances in children’s rights in the CEE region.

Children's Rights in Central and Eastern Europe

Before there was Cher or Madonna, Iran had Googoosh. For the first time, one of the biggest pop stars of the 20th century tells her story: her rise to fame in pre-revolution Iran, her arrest and imprisonment by Revolutionary forces, her twenty-year exile, and finally, her triumphant return to the global stage.

Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

This edited volume represents a significant contribution to the academic discourse on the role of good faith in constitutional law. By assembling scholars from various countries who explore different aspects of the subject, the book provides a comprehensive comparative and constitutional theory analysis explaining the idea of good faith in constitutional law. The book consists of three main parts, preceded by an introductory and methodological chapter that outlines the research problem and initial findings.
The first part examines the origins of good faith in public law and its historical sources. This section introduces the reader to the idea of good faith in jurisprudence and legal tradition and its current application in public law, which includes constitutional law. This part focusses on three key points of reference: international treaty law, where good faith governs the formation and performance of international agreements; EU law, where good faith or "loyal cooperation" shapes the relationship between member states and EU institutions; and the Council of Europe's human rights system, in particular the European Court of Human Rights, where good faith considerations appear in assessing the compatibility of state action with fundamental rights. This section therefore provides a basic background for understanding constitutional good faith. The second part explores constitutional good faith in selected legal systems. The choice of jurisdictions for comparative analysis is not accidental. First, it includes countries where good faith is explicitly enshrined in constitutional provisions, and thus is a normative concept with a well-defined meaning. Second, it includes countries where good faith appears in constitutional jurisprudence or academic debate. The last part analyzes good faith through the lens of constitutional theory, focusing on key areas relevant to the interpretation and application of constitutional law, in particular the theory of constitutional interpretation, the principle of separation of powers, including the vertical division of powers and the judiciary, as well as the relationships between the state and individuals.
The book is being prepared with funds from the National Science Center in Poland for the project "Good Faith in Constitutional Law" (project no. 2020/39/B/HS5/02298).

Gleams of Good Faith in Constitutional Law

Risk, Governance and Society

This book examines fair citizen participation as a key element of effective policy support. Over the past two decades, many countries have embraced more reflective and inclusive governance in environmental policymaking. 


This book demonstrates how democratic and deliberative approaches yield better policy outcomes than technocratic methods that only superficially engage the public. Reflective governance highlights the importance of deliberative democracy, offering fair and open discourse opportunities for all stakeholders. Throughout the chapters, some of the most renowned authors in the field present the principal mechanisms for public engagement in deliberative decision-making.


By exploring innovative formats like stakeholder round tables and citizen assemblies, this book provides practical guidance on their unique merits and limitations. It addresses scholars, practitioners, and representatives of administrations, public and private institutions, and NGOs interested in a better understanding of the selection and design of the most effective formats for competent and fair policymaking, ensuring each format meets its full potential.

A Critical Review of Formats for Deliberative Policymaking

Fairness and Competence in Citizen Participation

Modern Studies in European Law

The European Union undoubtedly has and continues to face a period of crisis and this book assesses this critical juncture in its history. It adopts a unique multidisciplinary approach drawing on philosophy, social theory, and law, and focusing on the European institutional framework and EU law on free movement and citizenship. This perspective leads to the conclusion that central to the EU's problems is the non-emergence of a European people. This multifaceted approach also allows the author to suggest how the EU might move positively beyond its current challenges. This book provides a genuinely fresh and innovative comment on a much-examined question.

Critical Criminological Perspectives

This book considers the lessons that can be gleaned from the Occupy movement, some 14 years after its inception. The Occupy movement brought with it many things, including a renewed interest in class and class struggle. Using the work of Nicos Poulantzas as its departure point, the book considers the theoretical and conceptual parameters of class structures under the most contemporary form of capitalism: the monopoly finance capitalist stage. An examination of state responses to the Occupy movement reveals the ability of the exploiting classes to maintain and reproduce the capitalist system via an expression of political power through the state and its tendency to deploy both ideological and physical defenses against any significant attacks on capitalism. The analysis offered reveals how some degree of anti-capitalist opposition is tolerated until such time that it must be forcefully censored and stopped, coined here as ‘the authoritarian state with a democratic alter-ego’, offering a nuanced conceptualization of state power for readers to explore and apply for themselves in other contexts. For the nature of the state to change significantly, social class agents need to find ways to access greater autonomy from the shackles of its power. This book explores the ways in which attempts to take up counterhegemonic class positions are persistently thwarted by a pervasive and yet intricately configured state power, backed by profit motivated corporate interest. It also poses urgent questions about the role and nature of alliances when trying to challenge both ideological and forcefully repressive state practices under capitalism. The book considers how we ‘find each other’ again in future struggles against capitalism and the attendant harms that it produces for the whole of humanity and the planet.

Wie kann kritischer sozialwissenschaftlicher Unterricht heute aussehen? Malte Suhr schließt an die Kritik der politischen Ökonomie von Karl Marx sowie zeitgenössische gesellschaftstheoretische Erweiterungen und Aktualisierungen an und entwickelt systematisch einen neuen fachdidaktischen Ansatz. Dabei beschränkt er sich nicht nur auf erkenntnis-, gesellschafts- und bildungstheoretische Grundlagen, sondern liefert auch Schlussfolgerungen für die Planung von Unterricht. Die Berücksichtigung des polit-ökonomischen Paradigmas schließt eine Lücke in der politik- und wirtschaftsdidaktischen Theoriebildung - und leistet gleichzeitig eine ausstehende methodisch-didaktische Konkretisierung kritischer politischer Bildung.
