Schriften des Frankfurter Instituts für das Recht der Europäischen Union

Kienast D: Frontex' Verantwortlichkeit

Frontex' Verantwortlichkeit für Push-Backs an den Außengrenzen der Europäischen Union

This open access book examines the role played by international, regional, and national legal frameworks in holding corporations operating in the natural resource sector accountable for human rights violations in the Global South.

Influential scholars from across the world address pressing issues concerning the integration of business and human rights standards for better governance of natural resources. They focus particularly on extractive and multinational companies in the Global South and their role in the transition to net zero societies. The book also examines legal mechanisms for corporate accountability under international, human rights and transnational law, using case studies from selected countries across Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

The book reviews proposals for an enforceable legal framework to hold corporations accountable for human rights abuses and environmental damage. It considers initiatives such as the OECD Guidelines on Multinational Enterprises, the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the UN's Draft Business and Human Rights Treaty, and the European Union Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive. 

The book is essential reading for researchers working in the fields of business and human rights law, natural resources law, environmental law and international law, as well as corporate and human rights practitioners litigating in the energy and natural resources sectors.

The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.

Accountability for a Just Transition

Business, Human Rights and Natural Resource Governance

Hague Yearbook of International Law / Annuaire de la Haye de Droit International, Vol. 38 (2025)

The book offers a comprehensive analysis of the legal implementation and impacts of the European Green Deal (EGD), introduced in 2019 to transform the EU towards a sustainable, carbon-neutral economy. Covering key research areas such as energy transition, biodiversity, circular economy, and climate law, it explores topics like the EU's potential withdrawal from the Energy Charter Treaty, the role of Power Purchase Agreements in energy markets, and the intersection of energy efficiency and biodiversity. The volume also addresses legal pathways for circularity in construction, marine ecosystem sustainability, forest conservation, and climate targets at the Member State level. Drawing on contributions from the 10th European Environmental Law Forum (2023, Leipzig), this book provides valuable insights for policymakers, legal professionals, and scholars working towards a climate-neutral Europe.

Legal Implementation and Impacts of the European Green Deal

This book critiques human rights standards that relate to abortion at the international and regional human rights level, from the EU, UN, Inter-American and African System. It tracks the convergence and divergence, cutting across jurisdictions, to make globally applicable recommendations. It underlines the significance of human rights in making transformative progress on abortion rights. A topical, timely and compelling work.

Reshaping EU Copyright Law to Support Creativity Online

How should EU law be taught in the present day, with the European Union's post Brexit reality, a continental conflict in Ukraine, and a new digital market? The answer is provided by this important new textbook. With a unified analytical voice, it provides a comprehensive overview of European Union law. It expertly explains the EU's constitutional foundations, institutional framework, and substantive policies, with a welcome simplicity of tone, without sacrificing analytical rigour. Where other books can place too much emphasis on the constitutional elements, it places similar weight on the economic dimensions of the EU, particularly its new digital market. The author's standing as both a scholar and practising lawyer infuses the book with a practical tone, taking the subject out of the abstract and into the everyday, allowing for students' full engagement. Its approach and tone will map particularly well on continental courses, where the next generation of EU lawyers are emerging from. This is a landmark publication in the field of EU law teaching.

Studien zum Arbeitsrecht

Die Integration der auftragsrechtlichen Vorschriften in den Dienstvertrag und die Ausgliederung des Arbeitsvertrags werden in der Literatur anhand des Vorbilds des Auftragskonzepts des OR vorgeschlagen. Das taiwanische Zivilgesetzbuch hat das Auftragskonzept des OR übernommen. Das Auftragskonzept beider Rechtsordnungen erfasst jede selbständige Dienstleistung, sodass ein Zwischentyp wie die arbeitnehmerähnliche Person kaum begründbar ist. Trotz des Auftragskonzepts dienen die zunehmenden Sondergesetze für Dienstleistungen in Taiwan zur Rechtssicherheit. Während das Auftragskonzept ausschließlich selbständige Dienstleistungen tangiert, spricht der Dienstvertrag des BGB besser für den Sozialschutz durch die Einbeziehung des Arbeitsvertrags.

Law and Religion in a Global Context

This book is the first study to consider findings from sociology, legal anthropology, ethnology, legal pluralism, comparative law and theology in order to gain a better understanding of the diverse cultures of global Catholicism and the cross-cultural challenges arising from Roman Catholic canon law within the local churches. The author, renowned for her work at the intersection of socio-legal studies and canon law, examines the latter as a distinctive example of a European religious legal system that cuts across the myriad legal cultures of the local churches. In light of findings on legal transfer and legal colonialism, and by examining canon law within the emerging field of social and cultural studies approaches to law, her book sheds light on how canon law is imposed upon and received by the local churches around the world. It analyses the challenges and problems arising from the law’s transcultural claims within these churches. Based on these observations, the study discusses the critical stance of canon law within contemporary Catholicism and the current debates on a synodal reform of the church and its law.&nbsp; The book adopts different perspectives: As a sociological study, it describes the contemporary Eurocentrism of global canon law and the conflicts arising from it. As a theological study, it presents ecclesiological reasons for challenging the hegemony of global legislation. As a study of canon law, it suggests ways in which legislation could permit greater diversity while maintaining the unity of the universal church. By analysing canon law as a specific example of a religious legal order with cross-cultural ambitions and global claims, the book also contributes to the study of transnational law in general by illustrating the typical problems that accompany transnational legal regimes in both secular legal systems and religious groups.

The Cultures of Canon Law

Die vorliegende Dissertation befasst sich mit der Frage, ob und in welchen Fällen Verletzungen des Rechts auf Gesundheit die Flüchtlingseigenschaft begründen können.
Dazu untersucht sie ausgewählte theoretische Aspekte des Rechts auf Gesundheit, die im flüchtlingsrechtlichen Kontext relevant sein können. Die Dissertation basiert auf einem menschenrechtlichen Verständnis des Verfolgungsbegriffs, wonach eine Verfolgung in einer schwerwiegenden Verletzung von Menschenrechten gesehen wird. Dazu werden entsprechende praktische Fälle - vorwiegend aus der angelsächsischen Rechtsprechung, da diese Auslegung des Flüchtlingsbegriffs dort weit verbreitet ist - aufgezeigt, in denen das Recht auf Gesundheit verletzt und eine Verfolgung bejaht wurde.
