This open access book provides the first-ever comparative study on criminal policy concerning the illicit trade of tobacco, conducted among four comparatively new EU Member States (Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Romania) and two "old" EU countries (Germany and Italy). The book addresses the national legal frameworks, current criminological situation regarding illicit trade of tobacco, and the practical challenges faced by national law enforcement authorities in the countries examined. It also considers the international framework, and concludes with a horizontal report. The objective of the book is to highlight legislative and practical challenges in the fight against illegal tobacco products at the national and transnational level, and to formulate recommendations for overcoming them more effectively in Europe.

Der Beitrag befaßt sich mit verschiedenen Gesichtspunkten der Auswirkungen der Informationsrevolution auf internationale Beziehungen, Arbeitsteilung und Wettbewerbsfähigkeit. Die Informationsrevolution basiert auf einer sinkenden relativen Bedeutung traditioneller Produktionsfaktoren wie Arbeit und Rohstoffe sie darstellen. Damit scheinen ihr von vornherein Grenzen gesetzt, sowohl unter gesellschaftlichem Blickwinkel (innerhalb der jeweiligen Volkswirtschaft) oder unter dem Aspekt der internationalen Wirtschaftsbeziehungen.

Das "Recht der Datenwirtschaft" ist noch kein abgeschlossenes dogmatisches Rechtsgebiet, jedoch eine höchst dynamische Rechtsmaterie, die insbesondere seit 2017 auf EU-Ebene stetig vorangetrieben wird. Die Anzahl der seither beschlossenen und vorgelegten Rechtsakte ist enorm. Vor diesem Hintergrund stellt sich die Frage, welcher rechtliche Rahmen für eine regulatorisch europäisch gesteuerte Datenwirtschaft als zentralem Wirtschaftsfeld des 21. Jahrhunderts notwendig ist und gesetzt wird. Der Fokus des Buches liegt auf dem Datenwirtschaftsrecht als Querschnittsmaterie zwischen Zivil-, Sachen-, Wettbewerbs- und Datenschutzrecht.Der kleinste begriffliche Anknüpfungspunkt ist somit das Datum/die Daten, dies sowohl als personenbezogene Daten wie auch als maschinell-generierte Rohdaten ohne Personalbezug, sog. "Big Data".Dieses Lehrbuch verfolgt eine Grundlagenbildung, welche wissenschaftlich und für die Lehre angezeigt ist

First published in 1973, European Technology analyses the possibilities for cooperation and collaboration and suggests how the technology gap' between Europe and the United States can be bridged. Concentrating mainly on aerospace, nuclear and computer fields Roger Williams looks at the aspirations and achievements in technological cooperation both within the EEC and without. How can commitment to join projects be generated? What are the internal managerial and external political problems associated with joint action? How will technological collaboration contribute to wider European economic and political integration. The strength of the European economy will depend to a large extent on improved technological and industrial cooperation. This book provides the first theoretical foundation for policy making in this vital field. This book is a must read for scholars and researchers of European politics, European history and British politics.

The global health crisis, exacerbated by the COVID-19 outbreak, has challenged all sectors of society, including health, economics, finance, and social inequality. The threats and complexities from the COVID-19 pandemic shock are the core subject of this latest volume in the Contributions to Economic Analysis series. The Economics of COVID-19 contains selected contributions analysing the effects of this pandemic, covering macroeconomics, computable general equilibrium models, financial markets, the reduction in seismic noise due to the slowdown in traffic and economic activities caused by the spread of the virus, the rapid surge in the digital transformation of production and consumption. Also included are health studies proposing to improve the traditional epidemic models, the effects of the pandemic on mental health, Minority Ethnic Groups in the UK, as well as the Lombardy region in Italy. The aim of this collection is to spur much needed research into the effects of COVID on the global economy, the health, and financial sectors, as well as its effects on development and growth and economic inequality.

"Conflict Resolution - Actors, Dynamics and Cases deals with multiple concepts and themes of the broad subject area of conflict resolution, seeking to highlight empirical studies that examine several topics from conflict prevention to peacebuilding, including conflict management, institution building, the role of formal and informal actors, the features of conflicts in different political contexts and the methods and strategies used for resolution or transformation (mediation, non-violence, reconciliation, transitional justice, second track diplomacy, peace education, post-conflict reconstruction, among others) in intra- and inter-state conflicts. The book is open to several methodological approaches, focusing on empirical studies that address several cases, including studies on Cyprus, the South Caucasus region, DR Congo, the Middle East region, Tunisia and Iraq, as well as on the role of regional organizations such as the European Union in peace-making and peacebuilding. Conceived this way, this edited volume on conflict resolution complements existing books on the theme, seeking not only to apply conflict resolution's theoretical frameworks and concepts to contemporary case studies but also to contribute, based on these empirical studies, to advance the academic debate towards critical perspectives that guide the conflict resolution field to more pluralist, emancipatory and transformative approaches"--
