Rechtsextremismus und Rechtspopulismus

Elf Jahre lang ermittelte die Polizei in einer der größten Mordserien der Nachkriegszeit. Neun Migranten und eine Polizistin wurden hingerichtet. Im November 2011 bekannte sich der Nationalsozialistische Untergrund (NSU) zu den Morden und zu Terroranschlägen auf migrantische Einrichtungen. Die Polizei engagierte sich erst ab dem sechsten Mord im Juni 2005 stärker in den Ermittlungen, sie qualifizierte die Morde jedoch fast ausschließlich als mafiöse Verbrechen im Drogenmilieu. Der hier immer auch präsente Rassismus bekam eine andere Funktion. Markus Mohr und Daniel Roth unterziehen die in der nachträglichen Aufarbeitung des NSU als 'Versagen' titulierte Polizeiarbeit einer kritischen Überprüfung und stellen heraus, warum es sich dabei um eine moralisierende Leerformel handelt.&nbsp;

Stärkere Strahlkraft – Wahrheit und Lüge im NSU-Komplex

Washington Is Burning reveals the inner workings of Trump’s Washington — a grotesque carnival of corruption. Andrew Cockburn sets fire to US pieties, focusing on the spectacular greed at the heart of the nation’s political system. Graft and self-interest have long typified both Democratic and Republican administrations. Cockburn charts the connections between the American military bureaucracy and the defense industry, which have created a senseless drive for ever-greater spending on arms. After the failed adventures of Afghanistan and Iraq, the Pentagon now seeks fresh rewards through inflating the threat from China and Iran, deploying time-tested techniques to boost the budget, including the invocation of supposedly superior enemy weapons development. The American empire has reached a watershed. With Trump back in the White House, Washington Is Burning is a must-read account of unedifying practices in the US capital.

Corruption and Lies in The Age of Trump

Washington Is Burning

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.

Friedenstheorien

The book examines how multiple and conflicting justice claims shape international negotiations. It conceptualizes justice as ambivalent, showing that efforts to promote fairness can also produce injustice. Theoretically, it traces human rights and state sovereignty to natural law traditions and introduces the concepts of a 'justice motive' and 'justization' to explain how states frame issues in moral terms. Empirically, it analyzes UN negotiations, including the Arms Trade Treaty and the UNPoA, as well as the International Criminal Court and conflict-related sexual violence. These cases show that justice claims can both enable cooperation and hinder agreements, making justice a central yet contested force in global governance.

Juridicum – Schriften zu Recht und Digitalisierung

Fremdsprachige Elemente prägen zunehmend den Alltag strafrechtlicher Verfahren. Die Gründe dafür sind vielfältig: Durchlässigere Binnengrenzen innerhalb Europas, globale Flucht- und Migrationsbewegungen, die Digitalisierung sowie internationale wirtschaftliche Verflechtungen. All das führt dazu, dass Gerichte und Strafverfolgungsbehörden immer häufiger vor Sprachbarrieren stehen. Dies betrifft nicht nur Verfahren gegen nicht deutschsprachige Beschuldigte, sondern ebenso fremdsprachige Beweismittel und internationale Ermittlungsmaßnahmen. Gleichzeitig ist die Strafjustiz mit begrenzten finanziellen und personellen Ressourcen konfrontiert.
&nbsp;
Das Buch untersucht die aktuellen Rahmenbedingungen der Translation im Strafverfahren – von der Kommunikation mit sprachunkundigen Verfahrensbeteiligten bis hin zur Verarbeitung fremdsprachiger Beweise und der Unterstützung bei Ermittlungsmaßnahmen. Analysiert werden bestehende Strukturen, rechtliche Anforderungen und praktische Defizite. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, ob und unter welchen Voraussetzungen Anwendungen Künstlicher Intelligenz in diesen Konstellationen eine rechtssichere Unterstützung bieten können. Die Arbeit zeigt Chancen und Grenzen moderner Technologien auf und beleuchtet, welche Bedeutung KI künftig für die Gestaltung effizienter und zugleich rechtsstaatlich abgesicherter Strafverfahren haben kann.

Die Formulierung „Usus fructus est ius alienis rebus utendi fruendi salva rerum substantia“, die den römischen Nießbrauch definiert, wirkt auf den ersten Blick klar und prägnant. Ein Blick in die Quellen zeigt jedoch ein deutlich weniger eindeutiges Bild, da sich zahlreiche abweichende Auffassungen finden.
Der Autor unternimmt daher aus begriffsgeschichtlicher Perspektive den Versuch, die unterschiedlichen Konzeptionen des ususfructus in der vorklassischen und klassischen Jurisprudenz zu analysieren und die hiervon berührten rechtsdogmatischen Fragestellungen zu untersuchen. Unter Berücksichtigung möglicher Einflüsse der hellenistischen Philosophie wird dabei eine kohärente und plausible Deutung angestrebt.

Insurance Claims

Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2025 by The Washington Post, Debutiful, San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, and LitHub Publishers Weekly Writer to Watch for Spring 2025 'This novel has all the ingredients of a Native American Succession' Sunday Times 'A blistering work'&nbsp;New York Magazine 'A big-minded book about small-town politics'&nbsp;Kirkus&nbsp;(starred review) 'Hickey's polished debut novel takes place in a few fraught days preceding an election at the fictional Passage Rouge Indian Reservation in northern Wisconsin...At its heart, this is a novel about the difficulties of belonging to a family or a community while plagued by an unsettled conscience and about the ways in which ambition and power can have drastic results on any playing field'&nbsp;Booklist There, There meets The Night Watchman in this gripping literary debut about power and corruption, family, and facing the ghosts of the past. Mitch Caddo, a young law school graduate and aspiring political fixer, is an outsider in the homeland of his Anishinaabe ancestors. But alongside his childhood friend, Tribal President Mack Beck, he runs the government of the Passage Rouge Nation, and with it, the tribe’s Golden Eagle Casino and Hotel. On the eve of Mack’s reelection, their tenuous grip on power is threatened by a nationally known activist and politician, Gloria Hawkins, and her young aide, Layla Beck, none other than Mack’s estranged sister and Mitch’s former love. In their struggle for control over Passage Rouge, the campaigns resort to bare-knuckle political gamesmanship, testing the limits of how far they will go—and what they will sacrifice—to win it all. But when an accident claims the life of Mitch’s mentor, a power broker in the reservation’s political scene, the election slides into chaos and pits Mitch against the only family he has. As relationships strain to their breaking points and a peaceful protest threatens to become an all-consuming riot, Mitch and Layla must work together to stop the reservation’s descent into violence. Thrilling and timely, Big Chief is an unforgettable story about the search for belonging—to an ancestral and spiritual home, to a family, and to a sovereign people at a moment of great historical importance.

This book explores how COVID-19 represents an inflection point for re-thinking and re-making democracy across the English-speaking world in an age where states are facing a future of overlapping crises. Years after the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic started to unfold, have we yet learned the deep lessons essential to maintaining and improving democracy to meet crisis challenges? Produced with the benefit of distance from the most acute period of the pandemic, the book contextualises the COVID-19 crisis as revealing pre-existing vulnerabilities and intensifying challenges of governance, inclusion, and distrust, while also spurring democratic innovation and shifting the parameters for reform. Six national case studies - Australia, Ireland, Canada, Aotearoa New Zealand, UK and USA - reveal the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Viewed in the round, pandemic responses ranged from the chaotic to the internationally lauded, although even the latter have featured acute deficiencies in democratic practice, which underscores the need to gather the lessons learned. Yet, in all states, the public and political temptation to simply move on, in an act of communal forgetting and collective return to "normalcy," presents a real risk of failing to prepare for more democratic future crisis responses. This collection takes the long view, approaching its subject from multiple perspectives that examine the heterogeneity of the Anglosphere as an imagined democratic space. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach and bringing together both leading and emerging experts on democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law, this book powerfully combines the insights of retrospective analysis with future-focused contemplation of where our democracies are heading.

Democracy’s Power to Meet Tomorrow’s Polycrisis

The first collection of critical writings on the work of the influential contemporary French artist Pierre Huyghe. Influenced by wide-ranging ideas from land art and institutional critique to experimental cinematic practices and narrative film, the groundbreaking work of Pierre Huyghe since the early 1990s has arguably, even indelibly, altered the landscape of contemporary art. The French artist works at the beguiling intersection of fiction and reality, representation and performance, spectacle and memory, chance and agency, living organisms and technological entities. As formats and discourses of cinema (be it Godard or Lumet) and architecture, (invented or existing) holidays and games, (puppet) theatre and opera, fairy tales and (travel) literature, museology and computer technology, life sciences and popular culture (like Manga comics or Disney movies) are renegotiated in Huyghe’s variegated projects, the methods and modalities of producing, exposing, and experiencing art, in turn, come under both critical scrutiny and allegorical speculation. The essays and interviews by preeminent scholars, critics, and curators, including Benjamin Buchloh, David Joselit, and Molly Nesbit, compiled in this volume trace the trajectory of Huyghe’s practice over the last three decades, from the artist’s earlier engagements with the built environment, the temporalities of cinema and television, the customs of social communities, and the volatile property relations in global media culture, to his most recent and much-discussed ecological redefinitions of the objects and sites of art. At the same time these texts and conversations ponder and gauge the far-reaching implications of Huyghe’s many seminal artworks for the history, theory, and ontology of art in the early twenty-first century.

Why the separation of powers is essential to liberty and democracy. From the winner of the Holberg Prize and New York Times–bestselling author of The World According to Star Wars. All over the world, people are questioning the separation of powers. They want a strong man, able to do what must be done. But James Madison was right to say this: “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” In this essential and immensely timely book, Separation of Powers, Cass Sunstein explains why the separation of powers is necessary for both freedom and self-government. He shows that freedom from fear is a central goal of the system of separation of powers. He also explains why the executive branch is the most dangerous branch, why the idea of presidential immunity is a terrible one, and why an independent judiciary is crucial. Drawing on his extensive experience in the White House, the Department of Justice, and the Department of Homeland Security, the author also argues that the separation of powers is, in fact, six separations of powers: (1) The legislature may not exercise the executive power. (2) The legislature may not exercise the judicial power. (3) The executive may not exercise the legislative power. (4) The executive may not exercise the judicial power. (5) The judiciary may not exercise the legislative power. (6) The judiciary may not exercise the executive power. Each of these is essential to liberty under law.
