Forced Mobility of EU Citizens is a critical evaluation from an empirical perspective of existing practices of the use of transnational criminal justice instruments within the European Union. Such instruments include the European Arrest Warrant (EAW), prisoner transfer procedures and criminal law-related deportations.The voices and experiences of people transferred across internal borders of the European Union are brought to the fore in this book. Another area explored is the scope and value of EU citizenship rights in light of cooperation not just between judicial authorities of EU Member States, but criminal justice systems in general, including penitentiary institutions. The novelty of the book lays not only in the fact that it brings to the fore a topic that so far has been under-researched, but it also brings together academics and studies from different parts of Europe - from the west (i.e. the expelling countries) and the east (the receiving countries, with a special focus on two of the jurisdictions most affected by these processes - Poland and Romania). It therefore exposes processes that have so far been hidden, shows the links between sending and receiving countries, and elaborates on the harms caused by those instruments and the very idea of 'justice' behind them. This book also introduces a new element to deportation studies as it links to them the institution of the European Arrest Warrant and EU law transfers targeting prisoners and sentenced individuals.With a combination of legal, criminological, and sociological perspectives, this book will be of great interest to scholars and students with an interest in EU law, criminal law, transnational criminal justice, migration/immigration, and citizenship.
This book addresses the issue of the timing of transitional justice policies in countries that had negotiated transitions from authoritarianism to democracy.Why are transitional justice measures often being implemented decades after the events they refer to? More specifically, what combination of factors leads to the implementation of transitional justice policies at certain moments in time? And, what explains countries' different choices and trajectories? To address these questions, this book pursues a comparative analysis of three cases: comparing a case of 'robust' implementation of transitional justice measures (Uruguay), a case where only victim-centered measures were approved (Spain), and a case that sits in between these two (Brazil). Through an in-depth empirical analysis of these specific country-cases, and focusing on seven different transitional justice initiatives, the book identifies the determinants behind delayed transitional justice policies and explains why such policies are more robust in some settings than in others. In doing so, it provides a holistic account of post-transitional justice outcomes, offering more general conclusions and insights about the study of the drivers of transitional justice.This book will appeal to scholars and students of transitional justice in politics, law, and sociology, as well as to policymakers involved in the implementation and administration of transitional justice measures.

This collection presents a summary of current knowledge regarding autistic suspects, defendants and offenders in the criminal justice system of England and Wales. The volume examines the interaction between each stage of the criminal justice process and autistic individuals accused or convicted of crime, considering the problems, strengths and possibilities for improving the system to better accommodate the needs of this vulnerable category of neurodiverse individuals. By explicating the core issues in this important but disparate area of study in a single place, the collection facilitates understanding of and engagement with knowledge for a wider audience of relevant stakeholders, including criminal justice practitioners, policy makers, academics and clinicians. It also incorporates key recommendations for improvement, thereby clarifying the urgent need for substantive change in policies and practices. The ultimate goal is to both improve the treatment and experience of autistic people subjected to criminal justice processes; and produce fairer, more appropriate systemic outcomes. While focused on the criminal justice system of England and Wales, the work will be valuable for researchers and policy makers working in similar systems, as well as those interested in neurodiversity more generally.
This book introduces the concept of the Anthropocene and examines its importance for environmental legal thinking, research and practice.Two main arguments are explored. The first is that much of the scholarship in environmental law that addresses the Anthropocene does not respond to Earth systems science or the difference in scale as we move from local to global systems. Key examples include a focus on anthropocentrism, attempts to constitutionalise environmental protections, the prevalence of legal rights and the idea of ecological integrity. The second argument is that these points of focus derive from the prevalence of idealism in environmental legal scholarship. Idealism in this context does not refer to naivety or the presentation of unrealistic goals. Rather, this book is concerned with idealism as a philosophical commitment to the power of ideas to determine reality and drive future change. As expressed in legal scholarship, this book also argues that idealism involves an abstraction from material reality and a refusal to directly engage those forces that have given rise to the Anthropocene. In response, this book uses a method of critique to uncover the presumptions and presuppositions that underlie environmental scholarship. As a counter to idealism, it also sketches out a framework for materialism in the Anthropocene.This book's engagement with these questions will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students in law, politics, philosophy or the ecological humanities. It will also be of interest to academics in these disciplines and libraries around the world.

l problema delle Micotossine, ed in particolare delle Aflatossine, oggetto di questo studio, interessa da anni molte sostanze alimentari, ma anche i mangimi per animali; quindi, si estende a gran parte della filiera alimentare. L'Aflatossina non è eliminabile dalla filiera alimentare, ed è genotossica.La legislazione alimentare è orami costituita quasi interamente da Regolamenti Comunitari. Per quanto riguarda le Aflatossine il riferimento legislativo è al Regolamento (CE) n. 1881/2006, modificato dal Regolamento (UE) N. 165/2010.Questo studio si è occupato anche del campionamento ufficiale e dei suoi metodi, della analisi in autocontrollo, del superamento dei limiti stabiliti nella normativa, dell'integrazione delle sanzioni amministrative e penali, in particolare dell'art. 5, lettera d), della legge 283 del 1962, come strutturato nella recente riforma introdotta con D. Lgs. n. 150 del 10 ottobre 2022 (c.d. Cartabia).The problem of mycotoxins, and in particular of aflatoxins, which is object of this study, has been affecting many food substances and animal feed for years; therefore, it extends throughout a large part of the food chain.The latest studies, mentioned in this study demonstrate the high risk to human health in case of exposure to aflatoxin, through diary intake. The continuous introduction of aflatoxins through foods may cause, in fact, immune deficiency, as well as reduce the ability to absorb nutrients.This study also dealt with the official sampling and its methods, self-monitoring analysis, exceeding the limits established in the legislation, integrating some sanctions.
Die Covid-Pandemie hat das Bewusstsein dafür wachsen lassen, dass die besten medizinischen Versorgungskapazitäten wertlos sind ohne qualifiziertes und motiviertes medizinisches Fach- und Pflegepersonal. Die Sicherung der Fachkräftebasis im Gesundheitsbereich ist eine Aufgabe staatlicher Daseinsvorsorge. Es liegt nahe, sich dieser auch dadurch zu stellen, dass der Bedarf durch Migration gedeckt wird; gleichzeitig ist das deutsche Gesundheitssystem selbst von Konkurrenz um Fachpersonal betroffen. Der gesamte Bildungssektor muss sich daher verstärkt der Frage zuwenden, wie soziale (Ausbildungs-)Berufe an Attraktivität und Wertschätzung gewinnen können. Der vorliegende Band widmet sich diesen Problemen aus unterschiedlichen wissenschaftlichen Perspektiven
This is the first book published that focuses on competition law and policy in the Japanese pharmaceutical sector. It consists of chapters written and edited by academics who research the industry from various perspectives, including economics, competition law, pharmaceutical regulations, and intellectual property law. Competition policies involving pharmaceutical products attract attention from academics and policymakers worldwide. The pharmaceutical industry is regulated by drug laws that vary from country to country and are affected by differing practices and industrial structures. The book begins by examining drug regulations and trade practices in the industry that are peculiar to Japan and its healthcare system. It then presents the Japanese Antimonopoly Act and cases involving it, and discussions of current competition law issues in the Japanese pharmaceutical industry. The book also discusses innovation and intellectual property and economic analyses of pharmaceutical regulations and drug discovery. The chapters include comparative studies on Japanese regulations vs. those in the European Union and the United States.Japan is one of the biggest pharmaceutical markets in the world. With this in mind, the book provides "one-stop shopping" for anyone interested in pharmaceutical regulations in the country. Covering the basics but extending to in-depth explorations of complex problems, this book appeals not only to students and academics, pharmaceutical companies and regulators, but also to those dealing with real-world policy issues that encompass competition policy, intellectual property, and pharmaceutical regulation.Chapter 11 is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com

Dieses Buch untersucht die rechtlichen Fragen, die sich im Rahmen der ärztlichen Behandlung transidenter und intersexueller Minderjähriger stellen. Im ersten Teil des Werkes werden die medizinisch-biologischen Grundlagen von Transidentität und Intersexualität sowie der medizinische und gesellschaftliche Umgang mit beiden Phänomenen dargestellt. Anschließend folgt eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Bedeutung des Geschlechts im Recht und der personenstandrechtlichen Behandlung transidenter und intersexueller Personen. Im darauffolgenden Hauptteil des Werkes werden zunächst die allgemeinen Voraussetzungen rechtmäßigen ärztlichen Handelns analysiert und sodann auf die speziellen Fallgruppen der Transidentität und Intersexualität angewendet, wobei ein besonderes Augenmerk auf die Indikationsstellung und die Einwilligung durch einen Minderjährigen selbst beziehungsweise durch die sorgeberechtigten Eltern gelegt wird. Zudem erfolgt eine vertiefte Analyse des § 1631e BGB. Schließlich wird dierechtliche Behandlung beider Fallgruppen unter Berücksichtigung der bestehenden tatsächlichen Unterschiede in einen Vergleich gesetzt und die Frage erörtert, ob die aktuelle Rechtslage den jeweiligen spezifischen Anliegen beider Fallgruppen gerecht wird.
How Big Pharma failed to end a pandemic, and what it tells us about the global economy
