In exploring the interrelation of health and human rights, Marks and Clapham identify four general kinds of connections before presenting an analysis of the 'broad-based, integrative right' to health in view of its international and domestic recognition, its scope (an aspect for which they rely mostly on General Comment 14 of the ICESCR),24 the obligations it entails for governments, and the essential aspect of its linkage with private interests through the important debate on intellectual property rights on life-saving drugs and issues of accountability for states and private parties.

International friendship is a distinct type of interstate relationship, and that as such, it can contribute to capture aspects of international politics that have long remained unattended. This book offers a framework for analyzing friendship in international politics by presenting a variety of conceptual approaches and empirical cases

AbstractThis article asks how we might rethink the study of 'ideas in politics' in modern Britain. It suggests that historians need to set the problem in its international contexts in a more structured way. Focussing on the nineteenth century, the article reflects on conceptual angles opened up by 'global intellectual' and 'entangled' approaches to political ideas and behaviour. While stressing that these methods have their pitfalls, the article argues that a reconsideration of the seams where international and intellectual contexts meet can help to reconnect modern British political history with wider historical debates.

Air carriage liability for damage represents an essential issue of national and international transport, therefore it is regulated by national law (this article emphasizing Czech law), EU law and international law. Czech regulation consists of provisions of the Civil Code and the Aviation Act, mainly concerning operator's liability. Several key Regulations, representing EU law, cover many aspects, for example compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights. The Montreal Convention introduced two tiers of liability and the fifth jurisdiction.

Die Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich mit den Auswirkungen der neuen EU-Datenschutz-Grundverordnung (DSGVO) auf den internationalen Datenverkehr von Unternehmen. Daher wird die Rechtslage vor Geltung der DSGVO (25.8.2018) auf europarechtlicher Ebene (Datenschutzrichtlinie 95/46 EG) und nationaler Ebene (Datenschutzgesetz 2000 und Verordnungen) mit der Rechtlage ab 25.5.2018 verglichen (DSGVO, neues DSG und Verordnungen). Die Darstellung der Rechtslage besteht jeweils aus einem allgemeinen Teil, der die Rechtsgrundlagen, Grundkonzepte und Begriffe umfasst, und einem speziellen Teil, der sich umfassend mit den Tatbeständen und Instrumenten des internationalen Datenverkehrs beschäftigt. Um die Vergleichbarkeit zu erleichtern wird durchgängig eine Strukturierung nach genehmigungsfreien, genehmigungspflichtigen und meldepflichtigen Datenverkehr verwendet. Im Detail werden neben den wichtigsten Instrumenten "Drittstaaten mit angemessenen Schutzniveau", Standarddatenschutzklauseln und Binding Corporate Rules, auch alle Ausnahmeregelungen und Sonderbestimmungen, wie Standardanwendungen, Verhaltensregeln, Zertifizierungen usw betrachtet und die Auswirkungen und Änderungen ab 25.5.2018 analysiert. ; eingereicht von Robert Klementschitz, B.Sc. ; Universität Linz, Diplomarbeit, 2019 ; (VLID)3588812
