FEW AUTHORS CAN WRITE IN SUCH A KNOWLEDGEABLE AND ENGAGING WAY about topics as diverse as Tennessee politicians, lawyers, and community leaders such as Lamar Alexander and Bill Haslam; important Supreme Court decisions; foodie favorites like Benton's Bacon, banana pudding, wine pairings and coffee selection; parenting tips and making holidays special from the perspective of a working "swim mom"; shoes from high heels to Chuck Taylors; sports of all sorts, many from a Big Orange perspective; health pointers; TV, movie, book and music reviews and recommendations; cars; and pets; and countless others. In this book, award-winning author Angelia Nystrom has done just that with easy-to-read, down-to-earth, humor. While the book is so captivating that you will want to read straight through, because it is comprised of a series of articles that read like short stories, you can also take it along to read when you have a few minutes of unexpected downtime. If you know Angelia, you already understand why this book is such a page-turner, but for those of you who don't, let me introduce you. ---Cynthia "Cindy" Richardson Wyrick, United States Magistrate Judge

This book seeks to explore the potential and actual value of parliamentary debates as a source of legislative justification. Drawing on a sample of recent Spanish legislation, the papers collected here analyse (critically) the rationale of several laws or legislative measures as it can be reconstructed from the respective parliamentary discussions. All issues covered have given rise to intense political, legal and social controversy: they range from the combat against gender violence, the legal status of bullfighting, the protection of crime victims and the so-called ¿push-backs¿ at the border, to the regulation of euthanasia, the minimum living income, underage girls¿ access to abortion, and joint child custody. The volume is organised into two main parts. The first group of case studies adopt a legisprudential perspective and examine parliamentary deliberations in the light of the theory and methodology of legislative justification; the contributions in the second part followapproaches that fall outside ¿ but are largely compatible with ¿legisprudence, and deal with aspects such as the rhetorical strategies employed by MPs when debating bills, and the role of elected legislators as constitutional interpreters.
Politikwissenschaftliche und zeitgeschichtliche Untersuchungen zu den Karrieren deutscher Spitzenpolitiker*innen beschäftigten sich bislang vor allem mit deren Aufstieg und weniger mit dem Ende von politischen Laufbahnen. Aus welchen Gründen treten Politiker*innen aus dem Amt zurück? Was sind die Hintergründe, Motive und Konsequenzen einer solchen Entscheidung? Müssen Rücktritte zwingend Resultat eines Scheiterns sein oder kann es auch ¿erfolgreiche¿ Rücktritte geben? In diesem Band werden theoretische Grundlagen der Rücktrittsforschung aus rechtlicher und politikwissenschaftlicher Perspektive erarbeitet, Rücktrittskulturen in unterschiedlichen Ländern vergleichend untersucht sowie verschiedene Fallbeispiele in ihren spezifischen Einzelfallbedingungen unter die Lupe genommen.

Dieses Buch fragt danach, wie Recht und Rechtsprechung, Staats- und Rechtstheorie sowie moderne Verhaltensökonomie die Rationalität und den Egoismus des Menschen begreifen und wie dies die Wahl staatlicher Steuerungsinstrumente beeinflusst. Das scheinbar neuartige Instrument Nudging wird mit Blick auf Umweltschutzinstrumente, die Regulierung des Tabakrauchens und der Organspende in den öffentlich-rechtlichen Handlungsformenkatalog eingeordnet, wobei verfassungsrechtliche Grenzen diskutiert werden. Zielgruppe sind die an der "Metaebene" des Rechts und der Verhaltenssteuerung interessierten Leserinnen und Leser.
¿Das hohe und dynamische Wachstum der chinesischen Wirtschaft und der erfolgreiche Übergang von einer zentral geplanten Wirtschaft zur Marktwirtschaft in den letzten vier Jahrzehnten gehen mit der rasanten Entwicklung und einer großen Transformation des chinesischen Bankensektors einher. Dies hat zur Folge, dass sich das chinesische Bankenaufsichtsrecht zu einem interessanten Forschungsgebiet entwickelt. Um aussagekräftigere Untersuchungsergebnisse zu erzielen, wurde das deutsche Bankenaufsichtsrecht unter dem Einfluss der europäischen Vorgaben als Vergleichsgegenstand ausgesucht. Die rechtsvergleichende Reise geht von der historischen Entwicklung der Bankenaufsicht aus ins geltende Bankenaufsichtssystem über die Marktzugangsaufsicht hinaus bis hin zur laufenden Aufsicht über die Bankgeschäfte, um die Suche nach einer besseren Bankenaufsicht zu inspirieren. Diese Dissertation wurde mit dem Dr. Feldbausch-Förderpreis im Jahr 2023 ausgezeichnet.
Im Juli 2017 wurde in Deutschland die Möglichkeit der selbstständigen Vermögensabschöpfung eingeführt. Dabei handelt es sich um ein Novum unter den Abschöpfungsinstrumenten, denn der von der Einziehung Betroffene muss einer Straftat nicht überführt sein. Es genügt der Verdacht, dass der sichergestellte Gegenstand aus einer Straftat herrührt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird dieses neue Abschöpfungsinstrument auf seine Vereinbarkeit mit strafprozessualen und verfassungsrechtlichen Prinzipien und Garantien überprüft. Im Fokus stehen dabei die Spannungen mit der Unschuldsvermutung, dem Eigentumsgrundrecht, der freien richterlichen Beweiswürdigung und dem Rückwirkungsverbot. Zudem wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob diese neue Maßnahme eine strafähnliche Wirkung zeitigt.

This book discusses whether democracy and republicanism are identical, complementary, or contradicting ideas. The rediscovery of classic republicanism a few decades ago made it clear how profoundly modern notions of democracy had been shaped by the republican tradition. But defining these two concepts remains difficult, and the views diverge widely. The overarching aim of this book is to discuss the extent to which democracy and republicanism are identical, complementary or mutually contradicting ideals / ideas. Pursuing this open approach to the subject means calling into question a widely used formula according to which modern democracy is composed of liberal principles such as individualism, the rule of law and human rights, on the one hand, and of republican principles such as focusing on the common good and popular sovereignty, on the other. This book will appeal to students, researches, and scholars of political science interested in a better understanding of political theory and political history.
