Jeg håber, jeg har gjort en forskel er et nærværende portræt af Danmarks første kvindelige juraprofessor. Eva Smith er datter af tidligere justits- og indenrigsminister Hans Hækkerup, men allerede som ung besluttede hun sig for, at hun ville kendes som sig selv, og ikke som ministerdatter. Derfor tog hun navnet Smith, da hun blev gift første gang som 22-årig i Tel Aviv med amerikaneren Ranny Smith.Alle kvinder i hendes slægt er døde i en tidlig alder af kræft. Derfor regnede Eva Smith heller ikke med, at hun ville blive særligt gammel. Men hun er her endnu, med sin mand Ole, sine seks egne børn, to delebørn og 20 børnebørn. Som mangeårig formand for Det Kriminalpræventive Råd og Europarådets Kommission mod Racisme og Intolerance, ECRI, har hun utrætteligt kæmpet for, at vi i Danmark og Europa lever op til menneskerettighedernes bestemmelse om, at alle er født frie og lige og derfor skal sikres de samme rettigheder og muligheder. Hun er stadig aktiv i medierne, når hun står fast på, at retssikkerhed handler om at beskytte den enkelte borger mod overgreb fra myndighederne og ikke – som mange politikere tror – om at beskytte folk mod dem, vi ikke bryder os om.

Håndbogen giver et hurtigt og kort overblik over faget statsforfatningsret(menneskerettigheder) på jurastudiet. Den er særlig relevant til eksamen og kan benyttes som opslagsværk.

This volume contains contributions from three conferences held within the framework of the project "Law between Dialogue and Translation (The Example of Palestine)", funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). The conferences were hosted by the project partners from the Department for Arabic and Islamic Studies of the University of Göttingen (Germany) and the Faculty of Law from Al-Quds University (Palestine) in 2019 and 2020, and the School of Graduate Studies of the State Islamic University Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta (Indonesia) in 2021. The project aimed to analyze how international law and human rights norms are implemented or "translated" into national legislation, with a special focus on the role of Islamic law and institutions in these processes. The volume provides a theoretical introduction on the concepts of "translation" of law and of "legal pluralism" and continues to discuss four main areas in which different practical aspects of these concepts can be observed: 1) the dealing of German and Palestinian judicial institutions with the relation between state, religion and rights of the individual, 2) achievements and challenges of women's rights implementation in Indonesia, 3) the entanglement of Sharia, Customary and State law in Palestine, and 4) recent developments in international criminal and humanitarian law in the Palestinian context.

This phenomenon is especially visible in recent debates and subsequent legal developments regarding the ban of wearing the Islamic face-veil in public.

Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Public International Law and Human Rights, grade: 2.3, Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg, course: Master of Arts in Human Rights, language: English, abstract: The research seeks to provide answers to the following questions: Does the ICC have jurisdiction over crimes allegedly committed in the former Southern Cameroons? Do victims of the alleged crimes have the right to reparation? If yes, against whom? Is there any justification under international law for incitement to violence, extra-judicial killings, torturing, kidnapping, destruction, etc. as a means of self-defence?Besides being an eyewitness, this work has benefited from the works of others. First, I identified and studied a large volume of relevant documents, texts, images, videos, etc. on the subjects. This approach is qualitative, and it has been supported by Bridget and Darko. To them, the qualitative research method is a "systematic collection, organization and interpretation of textual information (also images/video)". I equally sought information from libraries, where I read books, law journals, reports, journal articles, research papers and/or academic write-ups, etc. The research was equally assisted with information from the social media, including the Facebook pages of journalists and official authorities, WhatsApp groups, etc. Online sources, especially the official websites of international human rights organizations (The UN, for example) are also a great source upon which this research work benefitted. To this end, I explored the World Law Guide (https://www.lexadin.nl/wlg/legis/nofr/legis.php), the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, official website of the International Criminal Court (https://www.icc-cpi.int/) and a host of others relevant to the work. According to Polkinghorne, ¿qualitative data are gathered primarily in the form of spoken or written language rather than in the form of numbers¿. As such, this project has benefitted largely from interviews with some lawyers, teachers, human rights activists, journalists, university professors, judges, members of parliament, selected institutional respondents and the man on the streets in both the South-West and North-West regions.

The African Children¿s Charter entered into force on 29 November 1999. As at the time of conducting this study, the African Children¿s Charter had been ratified by 48 African states, whiles even others are yet to ratify same.

Academic Paper from the year 2018 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Public International Law and Human Rights, grade: A, Urmia University (Urmia Azad University), course: International Law, language: English, abstract: The determination of the international community to combat non-criminality and the fight against international crime has prompted the international community to find ways to address the legal vacuum existing in international criminal law. Due to the temporary nature of the courts established since World War II, as well as the absence of major crimes such as terrorism and human trafficking in the Statute of the International Criminal Court, the international community is inclined towards domestic courts and plans for actions such as global jurisdiction and commitment to extradition or trial. Due to differences arising from the obligation to perform an extradition or trial, it is necessary to examine the principles governing this obligation.Meanwhile, the judiciary and international bodies' opinions on these actions are of great importance. The International Court of Justice is one of the most prominent legal entities in the international community in terms of its distinctive and important role in the development of international law. In the present article, the Tribunal's judgments on the obligation to extradite or trial and the effect of the Court on the development of this commitment have been examined.

Essay from the year 2016 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Peace and Conflict Studies, Security, grade: 73, Coventry University, course: Trafficking of Human, language: English, abstract: Human trafficking is the worst kind of crime that is committed against humanity and shames us all. While there are issues with imprinting an exact deffinition on Human Trafficking, there is reliable definition enshrined in International Law for the purpose of dealing with human trafficking issues around the World. As per UN protocol, trafficking in persons would entail the recruitment, transportation, transfer, and harbouring or receipt of person with the help of threats or force of one kind or another. As it stands, this definition is used across the world to determine incidents of trafficking. However, there remain a confusion in identifying trafficking cases from others siminar crimes like smuggling of persons.
