Main description: Die Autorin befasst sich mit der Strafrechtspolitik der Europäischen Union und deren Auswirkungen auf das Rechtshilferecht (Teil I) und die Harmonisierung der mitgliedstaatlichen Strafrechte (Teil II). Ausgehend von einer Erörterung der Legitimität europäischer Rechtsetzung auf dem Gebiet des Strafrechts analysiert sie in Teil I ausführlich die einzelnen Formen der strafrechtlichen Rechtshilfe in ihrer historischen Entwicklung. -- Die Kernprobleme des ersten Teils sind mit den Schlagwörtern "internationaler Strafklageverbrauch" und "Forum Shopping", "Übergabe eigener Staatsangehöriger", "gegenseitige Anerkennung und Vollstreckung ausländischer Strafentscheidungen", "Beweistransfer", "polizeiliche Zusammenarbeit" sowie "einheitlicher europäischer Rechtsraum" zu umreißen. Teil II zeigt die Motive und rechtlichen Gestaltungsmittel der Strafrechtsharmonisierung in der Europäischen Union. An den Beispielen Betrug, Korruption und Geldwäsche zeigt Katalin Ligeti auf, wie das Europäische Strafrecht in concreto entsteht. -- Die Arbeit ist mit einem ausführlichen Nachweis aller Quellen versehen und nicht zuletzt durch ihr eingehendes Sachregister leicht erschließbar.

"The fight against dirty money is not a new topic, nor a recent problem. It has existed within international and national agendas since the 1980s. Nonetheless, the evolving complexity of criminal skills and networks; the increasingly global dimension of crime; the financial crisis; and the alleged unsatisfactory results of the efforts hitherto undertaken cause us to re-pose and re-discuss some questions. This book addresses several issues concerning the reasons, objectives and scope of national and supranational strategies targeting criminal money, as well as the concrete modalities to overcome its obstacles. The main objective is to explore where the EU stands and where it ought to go, providing useful input for policy-makers and further research. Nevertheless, the problems are not limited to the EU area, and assets--particularly money--cross EU borders much more easily than people do. The reflections developed in the chapters, therefore, aim at going beyond these EU borders. The book is divided into two parts. The first one focuses on the core of asset recovery policies, namely confiscation or forfeiture laws, and explores in particular some issues concerning the respect of fundamental rights. The second part addresses other problematic aspects related to the asset recovery process, such as the return of assets to victim countries, the cross-border investigations on dirty money, and the social use of confiscated assets."--Bloomsbury Publishing

Dieses Buch sammelt Fallstudien aus unterschiedlichen Policybereichen zur Rechtsdurchsetzung in mehrstufigen Regulierungssystemen, einem Phänomen der postmodernen Gesellschaft. Es sind komplexe Rechtssysteme, die sich durch mehrere Ebenen der Gesetzgebung (national, europäisch/supranational, international) auszeichnen und in denen nationale, supranationale und internationale Akteure zusammenwirken. Die Herausforderungen bezüglich Rechtsdurchsetzung werden in verschiedenen Rechtsdisziplinen und aus politikwissenschaftlicher Sicht analysiert, mit Schwerpunkt auf der EU. Die Vielfalt ermöglicht es, gemeinsame Schlussfolgerungen zu konzeptionellen Herausforderungen solcher Systeme zu ziehen und allgemein anwendbare Lösungen vorzuschlagen. Mit Beiträgen von Chrysa Alexandraki, Ioannis Asimakopoulos, Kelly Blount, Kei Hannah Brodersen, Giovanni Chiapponi, Nicole Citeroni, Simona Demková, Dimitrios Kafteranis, Katalin Ligeti, Pier Mario Lupinu, Branimir Stanimirov, Igor Tkalec, Carsten Ullrich und Panagiotis Zinonos.

EU enforcement agencies are on the rise, entrusted with investigating breaches of EU law. What are the implications for legal practice of their increasing prominence? This books explores this pertinent question from a comparative perspective. Looking at issues of accountability and legitimacy, it sets out the perimeters on the agencies. Moving beyond the constitutional realm, it examines procedural questions such as admissibility of evidence. Given the very real implications of the agencies' investigations, this book will appeal to practitioners and scholars, in fields from criminal law to competition and banking law

On 10 March 2023, John Vervaele retired as professor of Economic and European criminal law at Utrecht University. On the occasion of that farewell, this liber amicorum was presented to him. It comprises 85 contributions, written in a variety of languages by friends, colleagues and former colleagues from all over the world.00In keeping with the tradition of the Willem Pompe Institute for Criminal Law and Criminology, the contributions are arranged around the following themes, which have also been central to John's work: criminal justice, core values and human rights; crime, criminology and criminal justice; criminal justice and European integration; corporate crime and the enforcement of socio-economic law; and conflicts and transitional justice.00The contributions are very worthwhile for an academic audience, as well as for legal practitioners
