Floinn B: Practice and Procedure in the
Superior Courts

Practice and Procedure in the Superior Courts

A charming, classic-feeling cosy-crime children's debut from bestselling Irish author Emily Hourican - perfect for fans of Murder Most Unladylike, The Swifts and Janice Hallett's A Box Full of Murders. 12-year-old Meredith and 10-year-old Macy live at the Ivy Hotel in Dublin - an old, beautiful and beloved institution with a tight-knit staff that feel like family. Their mum is the General Manager, and their modest apartment is tucked away in a corner, but it has lots of perks. The girls enjoy sneaky snacks from the restaurant, spying on glamorous events and getting to know the eccentric long-term residents. And they like knowing all the secret stairs and corridors that guests never see, where the staff move around invisibly, making sure everything runs like clockwork... And this is going to come in handy. Because within the cosy walls of the Ivy Hotel, there is also danger, intrigue and threat. Just as the hotel's new owners arrive, ready to make cuts and fire staff, the girls are faced with their biggest task yet: a murder to solve.

Hart Studies in European Criminal Law

This collection looks at the protection of victims' rights in EU law. Taking a four-part approach, it firstly focuses on the Victims' Rights Directive and the proposal for a Directive on combating violence against women. It then explores victims' rights in the national laws of the Member States, including France, Germany, Hungary, the Netherlands, Romania, Lithuania and Ireland. Finally it analyses the main challenges in the field and the need for coherence between the different competing interests.

Assessment and Prospects

Stronger Victims’ Rights in EU Law?

From the world's leading expert on negotiation, an essential guide to negotiating in any situation--whether over Zoom, across political and cultural divides, or during a supply chain crisis The world has changed dramatically in just the past few years--and so has the game of negotiation. COVID-19, Zoom, political polarization, the online economy, increasing economic globalization, and greater workplace diversity--all have transformed the who, what, where, and how of negotiation. Today, traditional negotiating tactics, while still effective, need to be tailored to vastly different situations and circumstances. In Negotiation: The Game Has Changed, legendary Harvard Business School professor Max Bazerman, a pioneer in the field of negotiation, shows you how to negotiate successfully today by adapting proven negotiation principles and strategies to the challenging new contexts you face--from negotiating across cultural and political differences to trying to reach an agreement over Zoom or during a supply chain crisis. Negotiation offers a groundbreaking new way of thinking about the importance of the unique context of any negotiation--and when and how it should influence how you negotiate. At the same time, the book provides a concise and expert overview of essential negotiating techniques for anyone new to the subject or who wants a refresher. The result is a must-read--a powerful toolkit for successfully negotiating in a world where the game of negotiation has changed.

Studies in National Governance and Emerging Technologies

This book examines how artificial intelligence systems and their applications in security and defence are entangled with governance and policy processes in the EU. Combining concepts and insights from (critical) security studies and science and technology studies, it argues that behind the various AI-related policy initiatives in the EU are particular narratives on security and defence based on European fears of technological innovation and strategic gaps. In this respect, the book casts light on how such beliefs have become increasingly instrumentalized in the European governance dynamics, and subsequently embedded in successive policy initiatives and security and defence research programmes. It challenges conventional understandings of AI technologies as mere security and defence-enabling instruments, by providing a conceptually driven analysis of how certain visions of AI help govern and control one of the most dynamic emergent socio-technical fields. The book will appeal to all those interested in artificial intelligence, security studies, technology and European governance.&nbsp;

Artificial Security and the Politics of Hype in the EU

This book reveals why artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to reshape society, the global economy, and national security more profoundly than any other emerging technology. With a foreword from a Nobel laureate, it brings exceptional authority to a subject of global importance. Drawing on insights from political leaders, senior policymakers, investors, AI engineers, military strategists, and leading think-tank analysts, the volume moves beyond theory to offer a clear-eyed view of AI’s real-world implications. It covers essential themes, from the economics of AI and geopolitical competition to defense applications, robotics, and the transformation of human society. For readers seeking to understand how AI will redefine our world in the years ahead—and how we can navigate the opportunities and risks—this is an authoritative and indispensable resource.

Challenges and Opportunities

The Artificial Intelligence Revolution

Hart Studies in Constitutional Theory

This book addresses one of the most pressing issues of our time: the rise of populism and its implications, particularly for courts and other legal institutions. It questions and ultimately challenges the prevailing view in comparative constitutional law that courts can act as bulwarks against authoritarian, self-aggrandising populists in power. In doing so, it offers both a novel theoretical framework and a fresh contextual inquiry. Theoretically, the book uses the lens of spatiotemporality - the conjunction of space and time - to analyse populism as a constitutional project. It argues that contemporary populism is marked by constitutional impatience: a drive for temporal efficiency and spatial proximity that reshapes and reconfigures law's institutional and normative order. Contextually, the book focuses primarily on one key institution of liberal constitutional democracy: the judiciary. It offers a contextual analysis of three case studies: Armenia, Ecuador and the United Kingdom. In doing so, it not only highlights populism's reach beyond established democracies but also brings fresh insights from understudied jurisdictions at the periphery or in the Global South. Overall, the book suggests that populism's relationship with constitutionalism is complex and context-dependent. Instead of yielding uniform outcomes, it produces divergent tensions and impacts, thereby challenging assumptions about both the institutional role of courts and the nature of constitutionalism itself.

Judges vs the People

Populism and Courts in an Age of Constitutional Impatience

Studien zum ausländischen und internationalen Privatrecht

The recognition of judgments from third countries is an area of international civil procedure law that, despite ongoing Europeanization, remains governed by autonomous German law. The decisive criterion for recognition is the mirror-image principle: the German judge in charge of recognition examines whether the third country court had jurisdiction under German law. To assess this so-called "recognition jurisdiction," the judge relies on German jurisdictional rules. These include the provisions of the Brussels Ia Regulation when the defendant is domiciled in a Member State. This gives rise to the question of whether and how the value judgments of the Brussels Ia Regulation should be taken into account within the mirror-image principle. This issue becomes unavoidable particularly in cases involving choice-of-court agreements in favor of third-country courts: the parties remove the dispute from the scope of the Brussels Ia Regulation by designating a third country court as competent. In doing so, they also indirectly determine whether recognition will later proceed under European or German law. Case law and legal scholarship have increasingly opened up to such considerations. Victor de Lousanoff analyzes the current opinions, consolidates previous proposals, and develops his own approach based on them. The result is a universally applicable formula that yields teleologically convincing and practicable outcomes both for choice-of-court agreements in favor of third country courts and for all other third country judgments.
