The Case Against the Davis-Bacon Act: Fifty-Four Reasons for Repeal
ISBN: 9781412849883 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Davis-Bacon Act is a United States federal law that established the requirement for paying prevailing wages on public works projects. In this book, Armand J. Thieblot argues that it was passed under false pretenses and was based on erroneous economic logic. Yet, it continues to grow in scope and cost. It is attended by a substantial bureaucracy within the Department of Labor that has resisted all efforts at substantive modernization or reform. It is, however, the bedrock upon which stands one of the last bastions of private unionization in the construction industry. This book provides a...

Pogłębione studia traktują o prawnych, politycznych, społecznych i ekonomicznych aspektach przemian.

ISBN: 9781849463089 / Angielski / Twarda / 1893 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union enshrines the key political, social, and economic rights of EU citizens and residents under EU law. In its present form, it was approved in 2000 by the European Parliament, the Council of Ministers, and the European Commission. However, its legal status remained uncertain until the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon in December 2009. The Charter obliges the EU to act and legislate consistently with the Charter, and enables the EU's courts to strike down EU legislation which contravenes it. The Charter applies to EU Member States...

Lawyering Europe
ISBN: 9781849463782 / Angielski / Twarda / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While scholarly writing has dealt with the role of law in the process of European integration, so far it has shed little light on the lawyers and communities of lawyers involved in that process. Law has been one of the most thoroughly investigated aspects of the European integration process, and EU law has become a well-established academic discipline, with the emergence more recently of an impressive body of legal and political science literature on 'European law in context'. Yet, this field has been dominated by an essentially judicial narrative, focused on the role of the European courts,...

Rethinking Chinese Jurisprudence and Exploring Its Future: A Sociology of Knowledge Perspective
ISBN: 9789814440301 / Angielski / Twarda / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is an antecedent study on the task facing China's legal science, more strictly speaking - China's legal philosophy, in post-Cold War world structure. In broader terms, this is an academic study of China's own "identity" and future in the world structure. The author believes that from 1978 to 2004, in spite of its great achievements, China's legal science has at the same time had some of its grave problems of being exposed. A fundamental problem is its failure to provide a "Chinese legal ideal picture" as the standard of and direction for evaluating, assessing and guiding China's...

Legal governance of disaster brings both care and punishment to the upending of daily life of place-based disasters. National states use disasters to reorganize how they govern. This collection considers how law is implicated in disaster. The late modern expectation that states are to care for their population makes it particularly important to point out the limits to care-limits that appear less in the grand rhetoric than in the government reports, case-level decisionmaking, administrative rules, and criminalization that make up governing. These insightful essays feature leading scholars... Legal governance of disaster brings both care and punishment to the upending of daily life of place-based disasters.
