Masterpieces of Contemporary Jurisprudents in China

This book is the first academic monograph in China to comprehensively examine the concept, principles, and system of civil law from an ethical point of view. Under the background that China has promulgated the Civil Code, it is necessary to analyze the relevant contents of the Civil Code from all aspects, in depth and from various angles. The basic point of view is that China’s Civil Code should not only consider the advanced nature, but also take into account the national character, sublimation, and inheritance, and to meet the needs of modern society and demonstrate the ethical value. This book is highly readable, not only for professional research groups, but also for students and ordinary readers interested in Chinese civil law. This book is designated as a required reading list for law majors in many universities across China and is also published in Taiwan (PRC) and Japan.

An Ethical Analysis of Civil Law

Sustainable Development Goals Series

In democratic societies, the protection of journalistic sources stands as one of the most fundamental safeguards of press freedom. Without the ability to guarantee confidentiality, journalists cannot effectively investigate abuses of power, expose corruption, or provide the public with information essential for democratic accountability. Yet in an era increasingly defined by democratic backsliding, authoritarian resurgence, digital surveillance, and growing pressures on independent media, the protection of sources has become more fragile and more urgent than ever before.
This volume offers a timely and comprehensive examination of one of the most pressing challenges facing journalism, law, and democracy in the twenty-first century. Bringing together an international group of scholars from Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia, it explores the legal, political, technological, and ethical dimensions of source protection across diverse constitutional systems and media environments.
The contributors examine international human rights frameworks, European Union regulation, whistleblower protection regimes, comparative constitutional practice, and landmark national case studies, while also addressing emerging threats posed by mass surveillance, digital platforms, cyber insecurity, and authoritarian governance. The volume further expands the discussion through philosophical reflections on anonymity, practical perspectives from investigative journalists, and new approaches to protecting vulnerable and marginalized voices in conflict reporting.
Combining interdisciplinary scholarship with global comparative analysis, this book demonstrates that protecting journalistic sources is not simply a professional privilege of the press, but a structural condition for democracy itself.
This volume is essential reading for scholars, policymakers, journalists, and anyone concerned with the future of free expression in the digital age.

Journalistic Source Protection in the Age of Democratic Backsliding

This book investigates the structural limits of the principle of party initiative and the rule of congruence within the contemporary civil procedural system, with a primary focus on Brazilian law and a comparative outlook that resonates with other legal traditions. It critically examines how the liberal-individualist foundations of civil procedure—rooted in 18th- and 19th-century private law—continue to shape the concepts of jurisdiction, action, defense, and process, often in ways that are misaligned with the collective and complex nature of modern legal disputes.Through the lens of financial compensation for mineral exploitation, the work explores the dual role of the Public Power as both rights-holder and representative of diffuse interests, revealing the inadequacy of traditional procedural categories in addressing collective claims. This tension underscores the need to rethink the procedural framework, especially when the judiciary is called upon to act beyond the strict confines of party-submitted claims.The book proposes a shift toward a more systemic and public-oriented understanding of judicial activity, grounded in the principle of proportionality—understood here in its pan-procedural dimension. Rather than evaluating procedural guarantees solely within the boundaries of individual cases, it advocates for a broader analysis that considers the efficiency and legitimacy of the judiciary as a public service. Drawing on constitutional principles and comparative jurisprudence, it argues that judicial decisions must be guided by a balance between means and ends, ensuring that interventions are not only legally sound but also socially and economically justified.This approach is further developed through a critical analysis of the classification of legal actions and the effects of judicial decisions. The book revisits traditional distinctions—declaratory, constitutive, condemnatory, mandamental, and executive—highlighting their historical evolution and practical limitations. It challenges the rigidity of these categories, especially in contexts such as third-party embargoes and fraud against creditors, where procedural formalism can hinder effective legal protection. The discussion extends to the controversial admissibility of declaratory actions on facts, advocating for a more pragmatic and flexible interpretation that aligns with the realities of legal uncertainty and the need for judicial affirmation of rights and obligations.This work offers a renewed theoretical and practical framework for understanding the boundaries of judicial action. By integrating the principles of proportionality and adequate representation into the heart of procedural reasoning, it seeks to reconcile the individualistic origins of civil procedure with the demands of a complex, pluralistic, and constitutionally committed legal order.

Principle of Party Initiative

Hart Studies in Private Law

This book undertakes a unique enquiry into the puzzling doctrine of undisclosed agency. Following an introduction to the doctrine and those issues that its conceptual uncertainty poses for commerce, it then charts a course through the core categories of obligations: contract, equity, tort, and unjust enrichment. In each case, various theses are explored in detail in order to identify the most robust, compelling, and commercially-appropriate rationalisation of undisclosed agency. It brings much needed clarity to a complex field of private and commercial law.

From Abstract Principles to Implementation

Data Protection by Design

This book examines the relationship between intermediary liability, freedom of expression, and effective remedies in the digital environment. Drawing on the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR), it explores the legal principles that shape platform responsibility and content moderation, placing recent developments within the broader framework of European fundamental rights protection. At the heart of the analysis are two innovative review mechanisms: Meta's Oversight Board and the Appeals Centre Europe, an out-of-court dispute settlement body established under the Digital Services Act (DSA). The book critically assesses whether these bodies can provide safeguards traditionally associated with judicial remedies, including independence, transparency, legitimacy, accountability, and accessibility. Through a detailed examination of institutional design and key content moderation decisions, particularly in the area of hate speech, the study reveals both the potential and the structural limitations of private and hybrid remedial mechanisms. In doing so, it makes an important contribution to ongoing debates on intermediary liability, platform governance, digital constitutionalism, and the protection of fundamental rights online. A valuable resource for scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and advanced students working in the fields of EU digital regulation, freedom of expression, and platform governance.

Tutorium Jura

Worauf kommt es im Jurastudium wirklich an? Nicht aufs Auswendiglernen ganzer Bücherregale, sondern darauf, Recht und Gesetz zu verstehen und anwenden zu können. Dass dafür "fast alles im Gesetz steht", verblüfft Studierende aller Semester bei Klausurbesprechungen immer wieder. Dabei ist das Gesetz das wichtigste Werkzeug der juristischen Ausbildung und in den Prüfungen bis zum ersten Staatsexamen das einzige Hilfsmittel. Wer nicht mit ihm umzugehen weiß und losgelöst von ihm lernt, hat es unnötig schwer. Dieses Buch vermittelt Studierenden anhand von über 300 Beispielen aus dem Bürgerlichen Recht, dem Strafrecht und dem Öffentlichen Recht, wie man Gesetze von Anfang an richtig liest und mit ihnen lernt. Es nimmt die Angst vor unübersichtlichen Normen, zeigt, wie man schnell die passenden Vorschriften findet, ihren Inhalt versteht und sie in der Prüfung erfolgreich anwendet. Auch die Kunst, juristisch zu argumentieren, wird vermittelt - anhand der bloßen Lektüre des Gesetzes, ganz ohne hunderte Definitionen, Schemata oder Meinungsstreitigkeiten. So verstehen Studierende, dass Auswendiglernen im Jurastudium ebenso endlos wie nutzlos ist, und wie sie stattdessen selbständig juristisch denken und arbeiten, also: wie sie Juristinnen und Juristen werden.

Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

The contemporary significance of the subject “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is indisputable. In periods of social polarization, conflict and crisis, it is imperative that the obligation of our societies to protect and promote social rights is addressed and acknowledged. It is also necessary to recognize the way in which social rights are jeopardized by inequalities that impede the cultivation of robust social relationships and to document instances of the implementation of affirmative actions in this scenario. The aims of this work are as follows: firstly, to establish general topics (part I); secondly, to undertake more specific investigations within the primary topic (part II); and thirdly, to address the challenges posed by the technological transition currently taking place in society, which has significant consequences for social rights, (in)equality, and affirmative action (part III). The study is organized into three sections corresponding to these targets. For the purposes of this study, the analysis will commence, in the Part I of this book, at the genesis of the debates, as outlined in the chapter concerning the old and the new forms of racism. This contribution is followed by a chapter on the growing recognition of intersectional discrimination in European and global human rights frameworks and by another on structural discrimination and the function of the law against unjust enrichment. To further explore and expand upon the subjects addressed in the preceding chapters, the final chapter of Part I of this book delves into the topic of affirmative action in the United States. The second part of this work is dedicated primarily to specific forms of affirmative action, thereby deepening the discussion initiated in the first part of this book. The initial topic examines the way in which the pandemic has impacted specific social groups and led to the emergence of health disparities in the UK. The subsequent chapter is devoted to an examination of the alterations in the benefits of minimum income support in Brazil in recent years. The fourth chapter undertakes a detailed investigation of a specific affirmative action program for children and adolescents with the objective of reducing violence in urban areas. The final chapter conducts an analysis of ageing, public policies and inclusion in Brazil. The third and final section is dedicated to an examination of the challenges faced by our technological societies. The field of “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is set to be impacted by the regulation of artificial intelligence, the increasing digitalization of activities, and the development of new tools designed to enhance the efficiency of the social state. The initial chapter of the concluding section deals with the regulation of artificial intelligence in Brazil and the impacts of neurotechnology. The second study examines conservative digitalization and structural inequalities in Latin American information societies, while the final study focuses on the emergence of the social digital state and the use of instruments that produce inequality and discrimination.

Die Zukunft der Konfliktlösung

Smart Mediation

For centuries, the Latin notarial system has evolved in response to society's growing demand for legal certainty. Yet the increasing complexity of economic relations calls for a new stage in that evolution: a notarial system capable not only of ensuring legal certainty but also of realizing its full institutional potential to promote economic efficiency in private legal relationships through enhanced governance, conflict prevention, and the preservation of the contractual rationale built throughout the notarial process, so that disputes, when unavoidable, may be resolved consistently with the parties' legitimate choices, interests, and objectives.
 
 This book argues that such evolution requires neither abandoning nor replacing the historical foundations of the Latin notariat, but reinterpreting them in light of contemporary economic challenges. It introduces the Law-and-Economics Notary as the central institutional figure of the Law-and-Economics Notarial Paradigm, a new theoretical framework explaining how the civil-law notarial system can meet growing demands for economic efficiency while preserving the principles that have historically defined its identity.
 
 The book demonstrates that the Law-and-Economics Notary represents a new understanding of the notarial function. Public faith is conceived not only as an instrument of documentary authentication but also as a mechanism of private governance capable of structuring incentives, reducing transaction costs, mitigating information asymmetries and behavioral biases, strengthening trust among economic actors, and fostering more efficient, predictable, and socially beneficial legal relationships.
 
 Developed independently through the integration of law, economics, and notarial practice, the Law-and-Economics Notarial Paradigm later proved to converge with the evolutionary direction reflected in the studies and institutional agenda of the International Union of Notaries. This independent convergence confirms its capacity to explain and operationalize institutional transformations already emerging across the modern civil-law notariat.
 
 By integrating law, economics, and contractual governance, this book offers a new understanding of the notarial function and a coherent paradigm for the evolution of the Latin notarial system. Rather than replacing its traditional foundations, it demonstrates how they can be reinterpreted and further developed, thereby contributing to legal certainty, economic efficiency, preventive justice, and, ultimately, to economic development.
