The core structure of the regulatory regime for international civil aviation (the 'Chicago System') is inter-national. The features of the Chicago System were designed in an era when the world's airlines were State-owned, and the most pressing international concerns were for navigation and safety regulation. Economic liberalization and intense globalization since the Second World War have impacted on the industry; today, it is global. This book observes the developing governance of global aviation, taking into account the concepts of sovereignty, jurisdiction and territoriality, and the proliferation of actors and participants as partners in a global public policy network, to posit that an upgraded system of global governance for civil aviation helps to explain the emerging complex landscape for global governance of civil aviation. As evidence of the emerging, complex matrix of governance of global aviation, this book identifies and reviews a selection of contemporary, transnational economic and environmental challenges facing the globalized aviation sector, e.g. fair competition safeguards, consumer protection, noise pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, and the respective 'legal' and policy actions taken at national level (United Arab Emirates, Qatar and People's Republic of China), regional level (the European Union) and international level (UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and International Civil Aviation Organization). The book concludes that economic and environmental regulation of international aviation, designed for an inter-national world of yesterday, evolves into global governance of aviation, which is more suited for today's global world. This book will be of particular interest to scholars and practitioners of aviation law, competition law and environmental law, as well as in the areas of transnational law, global governance and international relations.
THE CREATION OF THE COURT OF JUSTICE OF THE EUROPEAN COAL AND STEEL COMMUNITY On 9th May, 1950, M. Robert Schuman, the then Foreign Minister of France, speaking at a Press Conference in Paris, outlined the idea of establishing a Community within Europe to control the production of coal and steel. "The French Govern ment", he stated, "propose to place the whole of the Franco German production of coal and steel under a common high authorityl within an organisation open to the participation of other countries of Europe ... This will form the first concrete step towards a European Federation, which is indispensable for peace" 2. This statement, apart from the specific mention of a high authority, does not mention any proposed organs of such a Community, and, as will appear, no firm idea of the Community's structure existed at all at that date. Six weeks after this announcement in Paris, a Conference composed of the six States that were to form the Coal and Steel 4 Community3 met under the presidency of M. Monnet * This Conference continued its work "consciencieux et discret, rue 5 Martignac" until March, 1951 * The first reference that one finds to a judicial organ to control the activity of the Community is contained in the document sub mitted by the Commissariat general au Plan 6. When compared with 1 The term is given in small letters as a description rather than as a title. 2 Bulletin Quotidien, llth May, 1950.
Die indische Wirtschaft boomt und wird in den kommenden Jahren zu einem der weltweit wichtigsten M&A-Ziele avancieren. Insbesondere deutsche Unternehmen haben Indien als einen der Absatzmarkte der Zukunft erkannt und sind dort zunehmend aktiv. Dabei kommt es vermehrt auch zum Erwerb borsennotierter indischer Unternehmen. Akquisitionen borsennotierter Unternehmen, die in Deutschland unter das Wertpapiererwerbs- und Ubernahmegesetz (WpUG) fallen, unterliegen auch in Indien einem speziellen Regelungsregime, namlich den Securities and Exchange Board of India (Substantial Acquisition of Shares and Takeovers) Regulations, 1997. Dieses Praxishandbuch gibt nach einer kurzen Darstellung des allgemeinen Rechtsrahmens fur auslandische Direktinvestitionen auf dem Subkontinent einen Uberblick uber den Ablauf offentlicher Ubernahmen in Indien. Dabei stellt der Autor auch vergleichende Bezuge zum deutschen Ubernahmerecht her.

"Islamic Commercial Law: An Analysis of Futures and Options" is a ground-breaking study, written by a renowned scholar in the field of Islamic law, Prof M. H. Kamali, focusing on options and futures as trading tools, exploring their validity from an Islamic point of view. In this work, Prof M. H. Kamali advances a new perspective on the issue of futures and options based on an interpretation of the Qur'an and the Sunna and referring to the principle of "maslaha" (consideration of public interest) as enshrined in the Sharia.---"Islamic Commercial Law" consists of three parts. Part One is devoted to the description of futures trading and the understanding of operational procedures of futures and futures markets. Part Two investigates the issue of permissibility of futures trading in Islamic law and the underlying questions of risk-taking and speculation, which are of central concern to the topic. Part Three is devoted to an analysis of options. Prof M. H. Kamali concludes this work by providing the most advisable approach to commercial speculation in futures and options, especially the one that most serves the public interest as enshrined in Sharia. So as to aid the reader's understanding of this topic, the author also includes a helpful glossary of all technical Arabic terms that appear in this work. Prof M. H. Kamali's "Islamic Commercial Law" is recommended reading for anyone working on Islamic law, comparative law, or Islamic banking, and is an essential contribution to the topic of Islamic commercial law.

Innovative initiatives for online arbitration are needed to aid in resolving cross-border commercial and consumer disputes in the EU, UK, US and China. This book provides a comparative study of online dispute resolution (ODR) systems and a model of best practices, taking into consideration the features and characteristics of various practical experiences/examples of ODR services and technological development for ODR systems and platforms. The book begins with a theoretical approach, looking into the challenges in the use of online arbitration in commercial transactions and analysing the potential adoption of technology-assisted arbitration (e.g. Basic ODR systems and Intelligent/Advanced ODR systems) in resolving certain types of international commercial and consumer disputes. It then investigates the legal obstacles to adopting ODR by examining the compatibility of technology with current legislation and regulatory development. Finally, it suggests appropriate legal and technological measures to promote the recognition of ODR, in particular online arbitration, for cross-border commercial and consumer disputes. By exploring both the theoretical framework and the practical considerations of online arbitration, this book will be a vital reference for lawyers, policy-makers, government officials, industry professionals and academics who are involved with online arbitration.

Commercial law is the label applied to the collection of rules and principles which cover dealings between parties acting in the course of business. Commercial law is as diverse as commercial life. Nonetheless, there are key ideas which underpin all types of commercial dealings. This book focuses on those key ideas and considers how modern commercial law implements them. This book argues that commercial law has three main concerns: - Agency. The extent to which multiple parties can act on behalf of a single commercial enterprise. Without agency rules, there could be no modern commercial economy. - Risk. Commercial parties run two main types of risk: performance risk (the risk that the provision of goods or services or credit is inadequate) and credit risk (the risk that money due for performance rendered is not paid). - Dealings. The ability of, and limits on, parties dealing with property, including transferring title and creating security interests. In the process of exploring this trilogy, the book considers pervasive themes in commercial law including sources for commercial law, freedom of contract and its limits, the need for certainty and predictability, and the appropriate role for obligations of good faith and fair dealing.
Since the beginnings of international law, the law of the sea has been of paramount importance for international trade. Yet this area of law and international trade regulations have developed as two distinct areas with little interface with each other. As the GATT/WTO emerged in parallel to the LOS Convention since the 1970s, both bodies have made extensive efforts in international treaty making. However, the relationship between trade regulations and the law of the sea has hardly been explored. The author examines some key aspects of this relationship, in particular port entry, access to cargo in coastal shipping (cabotage) and access to cargo in international shipping. The inclusion of services in WTO law will render this relationship of great importance in the future as the agreement extensively covers maritime transport. It is just a matter of time until the current exclusion of maritime transport under special exemptions will be reviewed in future negotiations. The book provides the background and a normative basis for approaching some of the problems which members of the WTO will have to address in coming years. It also deals briefly with the problem of choice of law and competing jurisdictions between trade law and maritime law. Der Praxisleitfaden ist fur alle diejenigen geschrieben, die in Deutschland eine (kreditfinanzierte) Immobilie kaufen oder selbst bauen wollen. Der Autor stellt das Thema anschaulich und leicht verstandlich dar, wobei er pragnant und detailliert sowohl an rechtliche als auch an wirtschaftliche Fragestellungen heranfuhrt. Die Inhalte werden anhand von Beispielen mit konkreten Berechnungen und Bezugen zur aktuellen Rechtslage illustriert. Das Berechnungs-Tool hilft bei der Ermittlung der tatsachlichen Kosten einer Kreditfinanzierung. |
