This carefully structured, practice-orientated textbook provides everything the law student needs to know about international commercial litigation. The strong comparative component provides a thought-provoking international perspective, while at the same time allowing readers to gain unique insights into litigation in English courts. Three important themes of the book analyse how the international element may call into question the power of the court to hear the case, whether it should exercise this power, whether foreign law applies, and whether the court should take into account any foreign judgment. Hartley provides the reader with extracts from leading cases and relevant legislation, together with an extensive reference library of further reading for those who wish to explore the topic in more detail, making this a valuable, single-source textbook. International commercial litigation is an area where the law changes fast. To keep the book up to date, new material will be posted on the book’s website, www.cambridge.org/thartley/. This will cover both cases and legislation. Trevor C. Hartley is Professor of Law Emeritus at the London School of Economics, where he specializes in private international law and European Community law.

To understand the underpinnings of this field is to shed light on how much of the Western world has understood itself through the 20th century. The "International Dictionary of Psychoanalysis" -- published in France in 2002 and now available in English -- is the most extensive reference work published on this topic. Not only does it represent all branches of the field, but it also defines the evolution of the different theoretical and clinical psychoanalytical concepts as well as the major individuals, works, events and institutions that have impacted the history of the psychoanalytical movement. Additionally, it reveals the history of psychoanalysis in 50 countries and shows the relationship between psychoanalysis and other disciplines, with entries discussing writers, philosophers, literary movements and historical events. Articles include discussion of 900 concepts and notions, 360 biographies of the major psychoanalysts worldwide and 170 articles on their major works.

How has the International Criminal Court (ICC) been able to evolve into a fairly effective, albeit relatively untested multi-level model of global governance? This volume explores this question and the novel predicament it represents for understanding the challenges of extending globalgovernance and promoting global justice. It focuses on the novel dynamics and design of the ICC and the role played by realpolitik factors such as the UN Security veto and intra-state competition in shaping and testing the cosmopolitan dimensions of the Court. To study these focal points and tounderstand the political challenges shaping the policies of the ICC, the book adopts a synergistic model based on four levels of responsibility, ranging from the state's negative responsibility not to harm its own citizens to the positive, open-ended global responsibility of the ICC Prosecutor. Themodel offers the basis of the book's cutting-edge, innovative approach, a "cosmopolitan political realism" , which encompasses and interweaves four International Relations theoretical perspectives: rationalism, constructivism, communicative action theory, and cosmopolitanism. Guiding this model isthe metaphor of the switch levers of train tracks, in which the Prosecutor and Judges serve as the agents switching (and criss-crossing) the tracks of realpolitik and cosmopolitanism. With this visual aid, the volume shows just how the ICC has become one of the most intriguing points of intersectionbetween law, politics, and ethics.

An examination of the legal framework of the EU internal market as established in the case law of the European Court of Justice, discussing in particular EC competition law, the free movement of goods, services, persons and capital and the evolution of the interpretation of the provisions. The 'State' has been retreating from direct intervention in economic life as more goods and services, the provision of which was once thought to be a 'public' responsibility, are delivered through market mechanisms. Given the need for consistent application of EC law in the internal market, a common core conception of public authority, shielded from the discipline of EC competition law, is needed. The resulting realignment of public and private functions and responsibilities is not a linear and coherent process, especially in light of the changing nature of the European legal integration project and the progressive incorporation of non-economic values in the Treaties.

In the quarter-century since this book first appeared, there have been few moments of uncertainty as to the direction of international relations and international law to compare with the early years of the twenty-first century. Globalisation has brought undoubted benefits in the fields of commerce, technology and communications, but also increased dangers concerning the rapid spread of disease and the growth of international terrorism. The clearly understood rules and limitations as to state conduct apparent during the ColdWar period have disappeared and (for the moment at least) the optimism engendered by a renewed United Nations in the early 1990s has dissipated. Increasing resort to force by states, entities and individuals coupled with the apparently easy access to weapons of high destructive capacity pose a significant challenge to those wishing to establish a world order based on justice,mutual respect, toleration and forbearance.

Economic, social and cultural rights (ESC rights) are protected in several international human rights instruments, the most comprehensive being the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR or ‘the Covenant’), which has been ratified by a vast majority of states. One of the most recent developments with respect to the international protection of ESC rights has been the unanimous adoption on 10 December 2008 by the United Nations General Assembly of an Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (GA resolution A/RES/63/117).

IT IS A great pleasure to acknowledge the assistance I have received from individuals and institutions. The Harry S. Truman Library and the National Endowment for the Humanities provided major grants for travel and release time from teaching. The Humanities Center at the University of Georgia funded me through a quarter off from teaching. The American Council for Learned Societies, the American Philosophical Society, and the History Department and Research Foundation at the University of Georgia all provided funding for travel. Given the magnitude of the research involved in this study, there is simply no way I could have done without the support of the above institutions.

The impact of the writings and activities of Professor Blishchenko on the development of international criminal law is widely recognised and this volume is a welldeserved demonstration of respect from an impressive line-up of international legal scholars. The collection of essays signals a cooperative interaction between academics and practitioners. As the first Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, I believe the engagement of academic communities with the operational problems of the Court will be invaluable, particularly by introducing new theoretical frameworks to explain and confront the complicated challenges that the implementation of the Rome Statute presents.

Менеджер - это главный субъект управленческой деятельности. Он организует деятельность персонала и несет персональную ответственность за ее результаты. Как организатор руководитель определяет порядок и последовательность выполняемой работы. Взаимодействие с подчиненными он строит в интересах организации. Деятельность руководителя обусловлена действием законов организации, а также закономерностями управления. Деятельность менеджера включает в себя три аспекта: а) производственно- экономический; б) социально-психологический; в) организационно-управленческий. Специфика труда руководителя состоит в том, что большинство встающих перед ним задач он решает в организационном аспекте воздействия на подчиненных. Организационная деятельность руководителя может быть рассмотрена с двух сторон: как должностного лица; как личности (лидера). Эффективность руководящей деятельности во многом зависит от авторитета руководителя.
