International Law and the Global South

This book provides comprehensive discussions on the instruments, mechanisms and debates relevant to tackling biopiracy and protecting the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities in that context.&nbsp;Biopiracy is one of the most controversial issues in the international society and indigenous peoples and local communities have been the main victim of biopiracy because although they have made enormous contributions to the conservation of biological and genetic resources and development of associated traditional knowledge, they have been rarely acknowledged and few benefits have been shared.Against this backdrop, this book surveys biopiracy cases around the world, analyses and discusses the international regimes relevant to biopiracy, and suggests possible ways forward; namely the instruments or mechanisms to tackle biopiracy and protect the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities based on the international regimes. It provides a comprehensive picture on the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities in the context of biopiracy by analysing international biodiversity, human rights and intellectual property regimes as a whole. Moreover, unlike others, this book also suggests how to improve domestic laws and institutions to tackle biopiracy and protect the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities to genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge in accordance with the international regimes by, for instance, providing the core elements of the model laws and institutions.For these reasons, the book will be a good guide for students and researchers who are interested in laws and policies on the (sustainable) use of biological and genetic resources. Particularly, given that with the adoption of the Nagoya Protocol, scientists (particularly, biologists) need to understand international biodiversity and intellectual property laws and institutions, this book will be useful for them. Moreover, as indigenous peoples and local communities are the main victim of biopiracy, this book will help indigenous rights activists and organizations working to protect their rights.

This volume (Parts A and B) contains 16 new studies that shed light on key aspects of immigration: the drivers of immigration, the factors fostering or hindering immigrant integration in the host country, and the impact of immigration in the host countries. The studies span a wide range of countries in Europe, North and South America and use novel administrative, regional and survey data to offer insights into historical and contemporary episodes of migration. Together, they enrich our understanding of the determinants and consequences of migration and provide an evidence base for policy discussions.
The volume covers three broad themes. In both Part A and B are eight papers on the integration of immigrants in the host society, focusing on the acquisition of human capital, labor supply, family formation, and returns to skills. Part B also studies the impact of immigration on outcomes that often dominate the public debate, namely employment, education, and crime. Published twice per year in conjunction with the Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) Research in Labor Economics contains new cutting edge peer reviewed research applying economic theory and econometrics to policy related topics pertinent to worker well-being often with an international focus.

Migration, Human Capital and the Labor Market

This book examines the increasing marketisation of framework agreements in UK public procurement and proposes reform to refocus the purpose of this vital purchasing tool and renew the emphasis on public service delivery. Through detailed empirical research, the book examines how contracting authorities set up and use framework agreements in practice, the behaviours of centralised procurement authorities and the private sector, and how these have been addressed or not under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 implementing EU Directives. This reveals the scale of marketisation, the effect of legal rules on framework agreement efficacy, and the need for regulatory and other reform. Going further, post-Brexit, this book also examines the relatively limited impact of the new UK Procurement Act 2023 in addressing these issues and identifies a pressing need for further regulatory, institutional, and industry reform. The book provides the reader with a detailed understanding and analysis of the rules and policies on framework agreements as developed and applied under EU law and UK law, including the UK's post-Brexit efforts at reform, and the resulting legal uncertainty. It also provides insight into the less explored attitudes, behaviours, and practices. This includes everything from centralised purchasing authorities competing against each other to provide framework agreements across the public sector to private sector organisations seeking to run framework agreements for profit. The book will be of interest to practitioners keen to understand and mitigate legal and commercial risks in setting up and using framework agreements. It will also guide policy-makers on the key priorities for targeted reform. Civil society organisations will gain insight into the ongoing challenges of ensuring transparency and accountability. The book will also be of comparative interest in the EU given the UK's experience as a Member State and internationally for countries looking to reform their approach to regulating framework agreements.

Recht Wirtschaft Steuern - Handbuch

Die staatliche Kontrolle von Unternehmenserwerben durch ausländische Investoren ist in den vergangenen Jahren ein wichtiges Thema im Bereich Mergers &amp; Acquisitions geworden. Nicht nur in Deutschland, sondern auch in zahlreichen anderen Ländern der Welt werden Unternehmenserwerbe durch ausländische Investor*innen seitens der zuständigen staatlichen Stellen kritisch geprüft. Die geopolitischen Veränderungen der letzten Jahre haben hierzu wesentlich beigetragen. Es sind keine Ausnahmen mehr, dass die für die Investitionskontrolle zuständigen staatlichen Stellen Unternehmenserwerbe untersagen oder eine Freigabe von Zusagen der beteiligten Unternehmen abhängig machen.

Zahlreiche Praktiker*innen - allesamt mit erheblichen Erfahrungen im Bereich Investitionskontrolle - erklären im Praxishandbuch, wie Investitionskontrolle in Deutschland funktioniert und welche Fallstricke beteiligte Unternehmen im Blick haben müssen. Für diese Zwecke werden im Praxishandbuch unter anderem die Hintergründe der Investitionskontrolle in Deutschland und Europa dargestellt, die formelle und materielle Investitionskontrolle beschrieben und das Prüfverfahren erläutert. Eine Zusammenstellung von relevanten Formularen und "Best Practice-"Listen rundet das Praxishandbuch ab.

Das Werk bietet damit einen kompletten Überblick über die für Investitionskontrolle in Deutschland relevanten Fragen und ermöglicht Leser*innen ein sicheres Navigieren in diesem hoch relevanten Themengebiet.

Der Inhalt in Kürze: 
- Historischer Kontext der Investitionskontrolle
- Von der Investitionskontrolle erfasste Unternehmenserwerbe
- Sektorspezifische und sektorübergreifende Prüfung
- Untersagungstatbestände der Investitionskontrolle
- Investitionskontrollrechtliches Verwaltungsverfahren

Investitionskontrolle in Deutschland und Europa

Contributions to Economics

International trade has long been governed by principles of fairness and multilateral cooperation, from the lex mercatoria to GATT and the WTO. Yet, rising protectionism and strategic competition have challenged these norms. This book examines how Donald Trump’s trade policies—spanning two administrations—reshaped global trade and strained the rules-based system.
Through empirical analysis, case studies, and expert interviews, the book explores the WTO’s legitimacy crisis, U.S.-China trade wars, and tariffs on allies under “America First.” It analyzes sectoral dynamics in rare earths and semiconductors, regional shifts in Latin America and ASEAN, and the broader geoeconomic consequences of U.S. actions. By linking historical evolution with contemporary disruptions, the work addresses critical questions: Can the WTO remain relevant? How will emerging industries redefine trade? What are the long-term implications of U.S. assertiveness for global governance?
Combining theoretical, historical, and pragmatic perspectives, this book offers a balanced view of trade as a tool of power politics in a multipolar world. Essential reading for scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking to understand the future of international trade amid growing nationalism and institutional transformation.

Donald J. Trump and the Effects on International Trade

Der Vietnamkrieg war der längste Konflikt des 20. Jahrhunderts - er dauerte über 30 Jahre, 10.000 Tage lang. Dieser Krieg hinterließ weltweit einen unauslöschlichen Eindruck in den Köpfen der Generation, die diese turbulenten Ereignisse miterlebte. Er trug dazu bei, die jungen Menschen der "Generation der 1960er Jahre" zu formen, die an Massenbewegungen und Demonstrationen gegen die etablierte Ordnung des Weltkapitalismus teilnahmen und diese manchmal anführten. Er war ein großer Faktor bei der Revolte der Studierenden, die mit den vietnamesischen Massen und ihrem hartnäckigen Widerstand gegen den US-Imperialismus sympathisierten. Die Unnachgiebigkeit der Vietnames*innen, ihre Weigerung, sich der Militärmacht der USA zu beugen, entzündete ein Feuer in Form einer Massen-Antikriegsbewegung, unter dem die herrschende Klasse der USA zum Rückzug aus Vietnam gezwungen wurde.

Asian Yearbook of International Economic Law

The Asian Yearbook of International Economic Law (AYIEL) 2025 addresses the rapidly evolving field of international economic law with a special focus on Asia and the Pacific. With the rapidly changing geopolitical situation, protectionist measures have been taken by many countries, which has caused significant impact on international economic governance. Given the importance of Asia and the Pacific, it is necessary to study on trade protectionism and its impacts especially from a regional perspective.

Responsibility Accountability Maritime Law examines the phenomenon of criminalisation which confronts the Master in their professional conduct, both in terms of Flag State and Port State rights and obligations. The fault lines of criminalisation, which go to the heart of the question, demand an understanding of how the concept of criminal justice has evolved to impose accountability on the Master, in circumstances which had not been crimes before.Since this book was first published, the maritime world has changed dramatically, requiring a new understanding of responsibility and accountability before the Master can make rational decisions to respond to the risk of criminalisation. While the basic theory of accountability for criminalisation and the sources of law provide the foundation, this second edition presents a new introduction to summarise the necessity for changes in structure in order to define the pre-existing law with which the Master must comply, acknowledging the re-emergence of risk in the Gulf in 2026, and the foreseeable emergence of risk in the Arctic as geopolitical pressures create uncertainty as to who will assert jurisdictional control in the management of merchant shipping in this region. The Sources of Law chapter has been expanded to address risk management in the context of current geopolitical turmoil, balancing company commitments with the safety of the ship and crew. New content includes detention of Masters and crew, the International Convention on Arrest of Ships, universal jurisdiction, and relevant case studies such as the M/T Heroic Idun.The book's format meets the needs of lawyers, academics and maritime professionals, with the aim of analysing the character of criminalisation to determine the features which characterise the phenomenon in Port and Flag State contexts; it interrogates the aim to define the nature of criminalisation and identifies the constituent problems in such criminal accountability. Each chapter relies heavily on case studies to illustrate how the laws which reflect national policy underpinning those priorities are applied in practice. This structure enables an understanding of the problems in the criminal process, with a view to offering options for solutions.The book is directly relevant to a broad range of parties which includes lawyers, academics, P &amp; I clubs, seafarers, shipowners, managers and agents, and national and international seafaring unions.The current law and cases have been verified up to June 2026.
