Die Vorbereitungen laufen bereits viele Jahre, nun liegt er endlich vor: der Entwurf der Europäischen Kommission für ein Gemeinsames Europäisches Kaufrecht als Optionales Instrument. Beteiligte an den Vorarbeiten und wichtige Kritiker derselben setzen sich in diesem höchst empfehlenswerten Buch mit dem Kommissionsentwurf auseinander. Wie wird die Harmonisierung des europäischen Vertragsrechts durch den Entwurf vorangetrieben? Wie "schlägt" sich der Entwurf im Vergleich zum BGB, zum DCFR oder zu den Acquis-Principles? Beleuchtet werden insbesondere Irrtumsanfechtung, AGB-Kontrolle, allgemeines und besonderes Leistungsstörungsrecht beim Kauf und bei verbundenen Dienstleistungen sowie übergreifende Fragestellungen zum Verbraucherrecht. Der Band wird abgerundet durch eine Synopse des Kommissionsentwurfs und der vorangegangenen Machbarkeitsstudie, in der die Entwicklung des Textes deutlich wird.

Os avanços tecnológicos possibilitam o acesso e compartilhamento rápido de dados e informações pessoais, o que demanda maior segurança e exigência de atitudes conscientes dos diversos profissionais que lidam com essas questões. Os profissionais de contabilidade se destacam neste universo por serem responsáveis por dados de clientes, fornecedores e colaboradores. O cenário de insegurança informacional levou à criação da LGPD, legislação específica para o tratamento de dados pessoais. Motivada por esse contexto, a presente pesquisa objetivou analisar os determinantes para conformidade da LGPD junto aos profissionais de contabilidade. Para alcançar tal propósito foi realizado um estudo quantitativo, descritivo e de levantamento. Na coleta dos dados desenvolveu-se e aplicou-se um questionário on-line com profissionais de contabilidade. A amostra final pesquisada totalizou 194 respondentes. A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio da Modelagem de Equações Estruturais. O modelo validado apresentou as dimensões de comportamentos e atitudes pessoais e os mecanismos de governança como determinantes, explicando 26,3% da conformidade com a LGPD. Esta pesquisa contribui para a compreensão de aspectos comportamentais dos profissionais da contabilidade frente à nova legislação, é uma abordagem inédita e supre uma lacuna na área contábil, apresentando contribuições úteis para instituições de ensino, órgãos de classe e empresas da área. ; Technological advances make it possible to quickly access and share personal data and information, which demands greater security and requires conscious attitudes from the different professionals who deal with these issues. Accounting professionals stand out in this universe for being responsible for customer, supplier, and employee data. The information insecurity scenario led to the creation of the General Data Protection Law (GDPL), a specific legislation for personal data handling. Driven by this context, this research aimed to analyze the GDPL compliance determinants among accounting professionals. In order to achieve this purpose, we conducted a quantitative, descriptive, survey study. For data collection, we developed and applied an online questionnaire addressed to accounting professionals. The final surveyed sample totaled 194 respondents. We performed the data analysis through Structural Equation Modeling. The validated model showed the dimensions of personal behaviors and attitudes and governance mechanisms as determinants, explaining 26.3% of GDPL compliance. This research contributes to the understanding of behavioral aspects of accounting professionals in face of the new legislation. It is an unprecedented approach and fills a gap in the accounting area, presenting useful contributions for educational institutions, class associations, and companies in the area.

DOI:10.1590/2179-8966/2020/46944ResumoEste artigo objetiva, em geral, caracterizar o regime jurídico da Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados sob os conceitos apresentados pelo capitalismo de vigilância, tendo como objetivos específicos: (I) descrever a economia política da vigilância e o papel do titular de dados/ usuário de serviços digitais e (II) identificar a inserção da LGPD no contexto da exploração econômica dos dados pessoais por meio do instrumento do consentimento do titular. Resultados: (I) A LGPD pode ser considerada um suporte jurídico para a acumulação capitalista na era informacional, possibilitando a condição de um titular de direitos relativos aos dados que pode negociar os seus dados com as empresas capazes de lidar com o contexto do Big Data e extrair desses dados comportamentos a serem vendidos em um mercado de dados que vende previsões de consumo e de vida cotidiana; (II) O grande mecanismo econômico identificado com a exploração é a extração de mais-valia comportamental, que é o processo que extrai das experiências da vida cotidiana dos usuários dados relevantes que são transformados em mercadoria; (III) Da mesma forma que o trabalhador assalariado do capitalismo é aquele que tem parte de sua produção extraída como mais-valor pelo capitalista, na era digital, os usuários conectados ao serem considerados titulares de dados tem sua vida cotidiana transformada em dados rentáveis, expandindo os limites da acumulação capitalista. O método de procedimento utilizado é o dialético-materialista, com abordagem qualitativa e técnica de pesquisa bibliográfica com revisão da literatura em um estudo exploratório.Palavras-chave: Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados; Capitalismo de vigilância; Mais-valia comportamental. AbstractThis article aims, in general, to characterize the legal regime of the General Data Protection Act (LGPD) under the concepts presented by surveillance capitalism, having as specific objectives: (I) describe the political economy of surveillance and the role of the data owner / user of digital services and (II) identify the insertion of LGPD in the context of the economic exploitation of personal data through the instrument of consent of the holder. Results: (I) LGPD can be considered a legal support for capitalist accumulation in the information age, enabling the condition of a data rights holder who can negotiate his data with companies capable of dealing with the Big Data context and extract from these data behaviors to be sold in a data market that sells forecasts of consumption and daily life; (II) The great economic mechanism identified with exploitation is the extraction of behavioral surplus value, which is the process that extracts relevant data from the users' daily life experiences that are transformed into merchandise; (III) In the same way that capitalist salaried workers are those who have part of their production extracted as more-value by the capitalist, in the digital age, users connected to being considered data holders have their daily lives transformed into profitable data, expanding the limits of capitalist accumulation. The method of procedure used is the dialectical-materialist, with a qualitative and technical approach of bibliographic research with literature review.Keywords: General Data Protection Act; Surveillance capitalism; Behavioral added value.

Traditionally, the quality of law is associated with observing certain principles of law making, the so-called principles of good legislation. Such a way of thinking, however, seems to be an over-simplification. Thus, the author indicates that the high-quality of legislation and the principles of good legislation are not the same. Law passed on the basis of good legislation procedures does not automatically result in the high-quality law, in particular, if one makes an assumption that the quality of law depends, above all, on legal certainty being ensured. The reflections presented here express an opinion on the immediate connection between the quality of law and the theory of law. In this perspective, thoughts on the quality of law resulted in an opinion how firmly the process of improvement in law quality is associated with the development of the theory of law. As regards the studies on the quality of law as a measure of legal certainty, three issues are pointed out in the material: 1. the quality of law from the point of view of its formation in reference to certain general social phenomena, 2. the quality of law relating to a person, 3. the quality of law in judicial activities.

This article deals with the evaluation of some of the new and significantly modified concepts included in the Tax Ordinance bill. The proposed bill introduces a number of previously non-existent regulations (e.g. non-executive forms of settlement) into the general tax law, it codifies the general principles of the tax law, and substantially modifies some of the existing regulations (e.g. statutes of limitation, correction of declarations). The purpose of the publication is to clarify these regulations and to indicate possible changes, which the author finds essential, to the proposed legislation. ; Artykuł poświęcony jest ocenie niektórych nowych oraz istotnie zmodyfikowanych instytucji, zawartych w projekcie ustawy Ordynacja podatkowa. Przedstawiony projekt wprowadza bowiem do ogólnego prawa podatkowego szereg instytucji dotychczas w nim nieistniejących (np. niewładcze formy załatwiania spraw), kodyfikuje ogólne zasady prawa podatkowego, a także w sposób istotny modyfikuje niektóre z obecnie obowiązujących przepisów (np. przedawnienie, korygowanie deklaracji). Celem publikacji jest przybliżenie tych instytucji oraz wskazanie ewentualnych niezbędnych, zdaniem autorki, zmian proponowanych przepisów

This article is generically dedicated to the legal effects of the acts practiced by young people, both minors and those of legal age, under the influence of drugs. In Part I, our attention is called to the legal-civil consequences of these acts. Thus, we shall begin with a brief preliminary note on the concept of civil law. Having noted this, we will examine the main topic to speak of the legally existing mechanisms (within the scope of civil law) to protect those people, and for this purpose, we distinguish between minors and adults (or equated to adults, which is the case of minors who are emancipated by marriage): the minor regime, in the first case, and possibly, the regime of incapacitation (an incapacity that is not generic and permanent), or even accidental incapacity (not permanent or transitory), caused by the consumption of alcohol or drugs, in the case of adulthood (or equated with adulthood). In the second part, initially, we give a general presentation of criminal law, with this part divided into two large sections: the sale and consumption of narcotics and the legal treatment given to minors. From a general standpoint, when an analysis of the agent's guilt cannot be made, the law considers him to be unimputable. From an internal standpoint, we shall analyze the most relevant legal aspects of the Decree-Law referring to traffic and to drugs. One particular aspect of this regime lies in the fact that in Macau, drug consumption is considered to be a crime (article 28), unlike in European countries, like Portugal, since 2000. We shall also take into account other legislation in Macau in which drugs play a crucial role, as is the case of the misdemeanor established in article 68 of the Highway Code, which consists, among other items, in driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics (note that this Code was recently altered by the Highway Traffic Law, which entered into effect in October 2007). Next, we will analyze the regime applied to minors from a concrete perspective of criminal law. ; Este ...

Deprivation of an entity of acquired rights deriving from an administrative act is possible through the combined application of administrative provisions of substantive and procedural law. The limits of durability acquired under an administrative decision rights are the constitutional principle of the protection of acquired rights and the general principles of administrative procedure. The permanence of the right acquired by the administrative decision is not absolute. Repeal or change of the administrative decision is possible only in the mode provided in the law, since the administrative decision makes use of the presumption of regularity. The deprivation of administrative and legal powers in the area of public law takes place in the context of an assessment of the implementation of an administrative decision carried out by a state body. This assessment is possible with the use of two procedural institutions for the expiry of an administrative decision and a substantive institution for the withdrawal of rights. The body assesses whether the addressee of an administrative act has implemented the administrative decision not only in accordance with its content but also the provisions of the generally applicable law. The deprivation of a party of an acquired right is often accompanied by the need to award damages (grant compensation). The procedure and premises for claiming compensation liability have been regulated in the provisions of substantive administrative law. The principle of the effectiveness of public administration bodies is one of the basic principles of administrative law. Its application is not limited only to the creation of law, but also includes the application of law by public administration bodies. The problem of the efficiency of operations of state bodies is of particular importance not only in the area of enforceability of an administrative decision, but also its authorising function. The efficiency of operations of entities in the State structure is assessed through the prism of the implementation of a given administrative decision.

The extraterritorial scope of European Union's (EU) data protection law has been a controversial issue since the adoption of Directive 95/46/EC. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) partially restructures the terms of the extraterritorial reach of EU data protection law and introduces new elements to an old debate. This contribution seeks to address one of those elements, concerning a linguistic ambivalence found in Article 3 (2) of the GDPR, and stress the practical consequences that emerge from this conundrum. ; O âmbito de aplicação extraterritorial do regime de proteção de dados pessoais da União Europeia (UE) é um tema controverso desde a adoção da Diretiva 95/46/EC. O Regulamento Geral de Proteção de Dados (RGPD) altera parcialmente aquele âmbito e introduzlhe novos elementos. Este texto procura abordar um desses elementos, relacionado com a divergência em torno do artigo 3.º, n.º 2 do RGPD e enfatizar as consequências práticas do enigma criado pela mesma.

During the political transformation in Poland, electoral law was frequently changed. The general principles, already adopted in 1991, were maintained in parliamentary elections (to the Sejm). The changes only affected the detailed solutions concerning how the votes were calculated as mandates, and the sizes of constituencies. The so-called elective thresholds, which were introduced in 1993, have been maintained. In practice, the result of the current system of parliamentary elections is that the parties that attract approximately 25% of the votes cast by all those authorized to vote, win over half the parliamentary mandates, thereby exercising power. Therefore, the claim that a democratic electoral system is based on the principle of majority rule seems doubtful here, as what we actually get entails the rule of the largest social group, or at least the one that has the most effective organization. Contrary to popular belief, the majority elections to the Senate do not change the above rule. A voter supporting a given candidate in these elections is mainly directed by the political group which supports this candidate. The electoral system to the Senate was finally formed in 1991 and only slightly amended in 2001. Asingle-mandate constituency in the elections to the upper chamber of the parliament was only introduced by Electoral Law in 2011. ; During the political transformation in Poland, electoral law was frequently changed.
