This book presents research on the history of criminology from the late-eighteenth to the mid-twentieth century in Western Europe (Austria, Britain, France, Germany, Italy) and in Argentina, Australia, Japan, and the United States. Approaching the history of criminology as a history of science and practice, the essays examine the discourse on crime and criminals that surfaced as part of different discourses and practices, including the activities of the police and the courts, parliamentary debates, media reports, as well as the writings of moral statisticians, jurists, and medical doctors. In addition, the book seeks to elucidate the relationship between criminological discourse and politics, society, and culture by providing a comparative study of the worldwide reception of Cesare Lombroso's criminal-anthropological ideas.

Republicanism and Liberalism in America and the German States represents the cooperative effort of a group of American and German scholars to move the historical debate on Republicanism and Liberalism to a new stage. Previously, the relationship between Republican and Liberal ideas, concepts and world views has been discussed in the context of American revolutionary and late eighteenth-century history. While the German states did not experience successful revolutions like those in North America and France, Republican and Liberal ideas and 'language' deeply affected German political thinking and culture, especially in the southern states. The essays published in this book expand the time frame of the debate into the first half of the nineteenth century, applying an innovative and comparative German-American perspective. By systematically studying the similarities and differences in the understanding of Republicanism and Liberalism in the United States and German states, the collection stimulates efforts toward a comprehensive interpretation of political, intellectual and social developments in the 'modernizing' Atlantic world of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Over the last two decades, the "new international order" of 1919 has grown into an expansive new area of research across multiple disciplines. With the League of Nations at its heart, the interwar settlement's innovations in international organizations, international law, and many other areas shaped the world we know today. This book presents the first study of the relationship between this new international order and the new regional order in Central and Eastern Europe after the collapse of the Habsburg empire. An analysis of the co-implication of these two orders is grounded in four key scholarly interventions: understanding the legacies of empire in international organizations; examining regionalism in the work of interwar international institutions; creating an integrated history of the interwar order in Europe; and testing recent claims of the conceptual connection between nationalism and internationalism. With chapters covering international health, international financial oversight, human trafficking, minority rights, scientific networks, technical expertise, passports, commercial treaties, borders and citizenship, and international policing, this book pioneers a regional approach to international order, and explores the origins of today's global governance in the wake of imperial collapse.

Document from the year 2014 in the subject Law - Comparative Legal Systems, Comparative Law, language: English, abstract: On December 08, 2007 the new Civil Code of Cambodia was promulgated by Royal Kram NS/RKM/1207/030. Together with the Criminal Code, the Civil Procedure Codes and the Criminal Code it was defined as both a fundamental law as well as a strategic objective of the Council for the Legal and Judicial Reforms. This legislation was part of the first phase of the "Plan of Action for Implementing the Legal and Judicial Reform Strategy" which was implemented by the Royal Government of Cambodia on 29 April 2005. The impetus for the Cambodian government to set out a policy on legal and judicial reform came from the plan to enter WTO. Due to the fact that most of the legal provisions dealing with civil matters have been scattered and insufficient, a compilation of those legal texts followed by updated provisions was required. This was the impetus for drafting a new Civil Code with a unified, consistent and complete set of civil laws. This is why the Civil Code has become the core piece of legislation in the private law sector regulating the most areas of private life, including business activities and property rights. The new Civil Code of the Kingdom of Cambodia has been developed, since 2001, with technical assistance from Japanese legal academics from various universities in Japan through a JICA grant administered by the International Civil and Commercial Law Centre Foundation According to Se. 1305 the new Code did not take effect until transition law (Law on Application of the Civil Code) was promulgated on May 31, 2011 and set in effect on December 21, 2011. However, this Civil Code is not totally new to Cambodia as a similar Code applied for more than 55 years, until the Khmer Rouge abolished it. However the next section shows that even during this period of time ordinary Cambodians were not be familiar with the legislation imported from Europe. Th"

Published in association with the Anglo-German FoundationBritish and German support for eastward enlargement of the EU has been crucial in driving the process forward and giving it momentum; unless this commitment continues, and strengthens, the process could falter. Yet, not only have Britain and Germany had very different views on EU integration for many years, they also have differnt geopolitical interests and very different levels of economic involvement in central and eastern Europe. In this book, leading British and German experts present a new analysis of British and German interests in enlargement and assesses contemporary policy approaches. Based on economic analysis, policy documentation and interviews with key policy-makers, they consider the scope for Britain and Germany to work together on enlargement, as well as highlighting the areas that could drive them apart.

Forschungsarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Politik - Internationale Politik - Region: Sudasien, - (Parlamentarian Institute of Cambodia), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die Verfasser untersuchen in drei Beitragen die Schwierigkeiten, denen sich Kambodschas bei der Entwicklung von Rechtsstaatlichkeit und Demokratie nach dem Friedensabkommen von Paris in 1991 und der Einfuhrung einer modernen Verfassung im Jahr 1993 gegenubersieht. Die dabei gewonnenen Erkenntnisse sollen auch dazu beitragen, politische Vorgange in anderen Postkonfliktlandern besser zu verstehen. Im ersten Beitrag (deutsch) wird der Frage nachgegangen, warum es in Kambodscha trotz erheblicher Unterstutzung und massiver Intervention im Rahmen der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit bisher weitgehend erfolglos geblieben ist, demokratische und rechtsstaatliche Verhaltnisse zu etablieren. Der zweite Beitrag (englisch) befasst sich mit den Voraussetzungen fur den politischen Willen zu demokratischen Reformen und den Faktoren, die fur entsprechenden die Positionierungen der politischen Eliten in Kambodscha eine ausschlaggebende Rolle spielen. Der dritte Beitrag (englisch) untersucht die Grunde, die fur die unterschiedliche Entwicklung von Demokratie und Rechtsstaat in den verschiedenen Staaten Asien massgebend waren

Fachbuch aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Politik - Internationale Politik - Thema: Entwicklungspolitik, -, Sprache: Deutsch, Anmerkungen: Peter Becker ist Regierungsdirektor beim Innenministerium Mecklenburg-Vorpommern und zurzeit Rechtsberater des Senates im Konigreich Kambodscha sowie Gastdozent an der Royal University for Rule and Ecomonics in Phnom Penh, Abstract: Teil 1 enthalt zunachst einen kurzen geschichtlichen Ruckblick auf die Umstande, die zu einer Dominanz des Westens und einer Kolonialisierung weiter Teile der Welt durch Europaer und - infolge des spanisch-amerikanischen Krieges - auch die USA fuhrten. Dem folgt eine chronologische Darstellung der verschieden Phasen, die Entwicklungshilfe und -zusammenarbeit seit dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs durchlaufen haben. In Teil 2 wird ein Uberblick uber das System, die Struktur, die Instrumente und die Akteure der deutschen internationalen und bilateralen Entwicklungszusammenarbeit gegeben; ebenso wird auf neuere Finanzierungsformen wie die Budgethilfe und die Korbfinanzierung eingegangen. Mit diesen beiden Teilen wird die Absicht verfolgt, die wichtigs-ten Informationen uber deutsche und internationale Entwicklungszusammenarbeit zusammenzufassen, damit die deutschen Mitarbeiter sich bei der Aufnahme eines neuen Projektes/Vorhabens, zum Beispiel im Rahmen eines Workshops oder bei gemein-samen gesellschaftlichen Veranstaltungen, prasentieren konnen, ohne zuvor alle Informa-tionen erneut selbst recherchieren zu mussen. Teil 3 beschaftigt sich mit dem Kulturbegriff und der systematischen Einordnung von Kulturunterschieden. Ausgehend von der Uberzeugung, dass Generalisierungen und Typisierungen sich verbieten und allgemeine Verhaltensanweisungen fur bestimmte Lander oder Regionen oftmals nur bedingt hilfreich sind, wird versucht, eine Methodologie aufzuzeigen, anhand derer sich Kulturunterschiede aufdecken lassen, bevor sie zu Stolpersteinen in der Zusammenarbeit werden konnen. In Teil 4 macht mi

Forschungsarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Jura - Rechtsphilosophie, Rechtssoziologie, Rechtsgeschichte, -, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Beginnend mit den Lebensformen der Jager und Sammler und der segmentaren Gesellschaften, die noch kein Recht kannten, streift die Broschure den Prozess der ersten Schritte zur Entstehung des Rechts in den sogenannten Proto- Staaten Mesopotamiens und in Griechenland. Der Aufstieg des Rechts in Rom und der nachfolgende Abstieg zum Vulgarrecht unter den Germanen und Franken werden ausfuhrlich behandelt. Dem folgt eine Darstellung der Entstehung des staatlichen Gewaltmonopols und der Herausbildung des Strafprozesses aufgrund der Inquisition im Mittelalter. Ein besonderes Augenmerk gilt danach der Entwicklung des Rechts in Deutschland nach der Aufklarung bis zum Ende des Kaiserreichs von 1871. Die Broschure geht in kurzen Zugen auf die Situation in Weimar und die Pervertierung des Rechts im Dritten Reich ein und stellt die Entwicklungslinien beim Aufbau eines Verfassungsstaats in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland dar. Dem Integrationsprozess der Bundesrepublik in die Europaische Union und die Rechtsentwicklung in der DDR sind ebenfalls jeweils eigene Kapitel gewidmet.

This book is about authority, more precisely, about figures of authority. The editors have put together an international group of renowned scholars to discuss the emergence of modern notions of authority from different angles. Modern authority is no longer legitimated by status and social position, but rather by institutional affiliation and performance. To research the genealogy and intricacies of this kind of authority, the chapters in this volume cast a closer look at the various institutional actors on whom authority has been bestowed. The authors use a case study approach to look at the instances in which modern authority emerged, was ridiculed, contested, or even failed. Taken together, the individual contributions shed new light on the intricate relationship between the subjects and their organisations; they challenge any Whig historiography of rationalisation and modernisation, and they help us to rethink the inter-relationship between modern and even postmodern institutional arrangements on the one hand, and their subjects on the other.
