In 2005 the UN's World Summit endorsed the idea that its members have a responsibility to prevent and halt genocide, crimes against humanity, ethnic cleansing and war crimes. Insufficient attention has been paid to clarifying how the definitions and evolving jurisprudence relating to these international crimes can provide clarity in identifying the unlawful acts that the Responsibility to Protect seeks to prevent and to halt. Specifically, an analysis of the elements of the crimes establishes the following parameters: attacks directed against any civilian population, committed in a widespread or systematic manner, in furtherance of a state or organizational policy, irrespective of the existence of discriminatory intent or an armed conflict. This conclusion makes reference to four 'crimes' redundant: crime against humanity alone provides an appropriate framework for conceptualizing and implementing the Responsibility to Protect. Although analysts focused on international crimes tend to prioritize accountability, such an approach need not be reactive. The essence of the Responsibility to Protect is best characterized as international crimes prevention.

Das Buch behandelt die Haftung der Intermediäre aus der Sicht des Internationalen Privat und Zivilverfahrensrechts. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage, welches Recht bei grenzüberschreitenden Sachverhalten, wie sie typischerweise im Internet entstehen, über die Haftung des Intermediärs, der eine Immaterialgüterrechtsverletzung durch Bereitstellen einer Plattform oder eines Zugangsdienstes ermöglicht, entscheidet. Ausgehend von den Vorgaben des immaterialgüterrechtlichen Territorialitätsprinzip und der darauf aufbauenden Schutzlandanknüpfung sowie deren Grenzen, den Vorgaben des Unionsrechts und der materiellrechtlichen Ausgestaltung verschiedener Formen der Haftung für die Ermöglichung von Immaterialgüterrechtsverletzungen im deutschen, französischen und US-amerikanischen Recht wird für die Haftung der Intermediäre eine eigenständige kollisionsrechtliche Anknüpfung befürwortet, die zur Anwendung eines vorhersehbaren Rechts führt

The idea of developing mechanisms to protect human rights emerged with the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen of French National Assembly, on August 26, 1789, which states that "the purpose of all political association is the preservation of the natural and imprescriptible rights of man". State Concerns for the international protection of human rights have increased but from the second half of the twentieth century, after the establishment of the United Nations Organization, who proposed that one of the aims to be achievement of international cooperation in promoting and encouraging respect for fundamental rights and freedoms of man, thus spurring the creation of protective mechanisms at global and regional levels, able to control the actual translation of regulations enshrining rights.

The agreement between British Foreign Minister Sir Samuel Hoare and Pierre Laval, French Premier and Foreign Minister, in early December, 1935, was a major turning point in European international politics during the interwar period. It placed a premium on Fascist aggression in Ethiopia by proposing that Italy be given actual or de facto control over huge slices of the African country. Several volumes of memoirs published in the last few years throw new light on some aspects of the proposal itself and on the politics of Great Britain, Italy, and France toward the Italo-Ethiopian conflict, policies which at the height of the international crisis produced the Hoare-Laval Plan. In addition, the State Department documents, published and unpublished, are a mine of information on these matters.

Zusammenfassung
Sozial-epidemiologische Forschungslinien lassen kaum Aussagen zur Problematik sozial bedingter Ungleichheiten in der gesundheitlichen Versorgung Dabei scheint die recht traditionelle Auffassung, nach der die in den Nachkriegsjahrzehnten verstärkten sozialstaatlichen Abfederungssysteme einem Durchschlagen von sozialen Ungleichheiten auf Ungleichheiten in der gesundheitlichen Versorgung vorzubeugen im Stande sind, mehr und mehr überholt. Der vorliegende Beitrag problematisiert die Existenz und Ausprägung von Versorgungsungleichheiten. Im Mittelpunkt steht der Überblick zu empirisch-deskriptiven Erkenntnissen einer inzwischen sehr umfangreichen internationalen Diskussion. Der Rekurs auf konzeptionelle Überlegungen zielt auf die nun immer dringender werdende Aufgabe der Erklärung von Versorgungsungleichheiten.

The current financial crisis has arisen as a result of entrepreneurial and business error rather than because of inappropriate incentives within the private sector. However, government failure has exacerbated the problem. The case for responding to government failure by greater international co‐ordination of banking regulation is weak. The IMF is particularly ill‐suited for this job.
