Few notions are as universal as the idea of a left-right divide in politics. Despite its death being frequently foretold, the left-right metaphor remains the most common lens through which to ...interpret political life locally, nationally and globally. Left and Right in Global Politics argues that the left-right divide connects these different levels into a world political debate. Interpreting the left-right dichotomy as an enduring debate about equality, Noël and Thérien analyse opinion polls and social discourses to demonstrate how this debate shapes both individual and collective views of public affairs. Setting their findings in a historical perspective, they then show that for more than two centuries the conflict between progressives and conservatives has structured both domestic and international politics. They conclude by discussing the implications of their argument for the analysis of world politics, and contend that the left-right opposition is here to stay.
While legal technology may bring efficiency and economy to business, where are the people in this process and what does it mean for their lives?Around five billion people globally are unable to ...address their everyday legal problems and do not have the security, opportunity or protection to redress their grievances and injustices. Courts and legal institutions can often be out of reach because of costs, distance or a lack of knowledge of rights and entitlements and judicial institutions may be under-funded leading to poor judicial infrastructure, inadequate staff, and limited resources to meet the needs of those who require such services.This book sets out to embed access to justice into mainstream discussions on the future of law and to explore how this can be addressed in different parts of the legal industry. It examines what changes in technology mean for the end user, whether an ordinary citizen, a client or a student. It looks at the everyday practice of law through a sector-wide analysis of law firms, universities, startups and civil society organisations. In doing so, the book provides a roadmap on how to address sector-specific access to justice questions and to draw lessons for the future. The book draws on experiences from judges, academics, practitioners, policy makers and educators and presents perspectives from both the Global South and the Global North.
The established interpretations of Ivan Cankar's short story The Servant Jernej and his Justice often read it as a symbolic vision of the socialist revolution, an affirmative announcement of the ...subsequent revolutionary events in the writer's homeland and abroad. The first part of the article presents - with a close reading of the central narrative and its fragmented retrospective elements - the fundamental problems of such interpretations. The second part of the article examines the religious aspects of the story that reflect Cankar's ambivalent attitude towards Christianity, while also revealing Cankar's intuition that modern revolutionary phenomena are based on a specific transformation of Christian eschatology.
Članek izhaja iz razprav o osiromašenju novinarstva kot dela, ki je skozi tehnološke inovacije zgodovinsko razpeto med poslovnimi cilji, usmerjenimi v realizacijo dobička medijskim lastnikom, in ...novinarskimi cilji povezovanja državljanov z družbenim življenjem na podlagi pravice do komuniciranja. Normativno skrb za komuniciranje so avtorji poročila Mnogo glasov, en svet utemeljili na pravici do komuniciranja, ki zadeva državljanske zmožnosti biti informiran, izražati mnenje in participirati v javnem življenju, ter se odmaknili od razumevanja svobode tiska, ki sloni predvsem na lastninski pravici. Na podlagi teorije delovnega procesa članek razgrinja logiko razsposabljanja novinarjev in proučuje implikacije deprofesionalizacije novinarstva za uveljavljanje pravice do komuniciranja, pri čemer se podrobneje ukvarja s pojavi prekarizacije, protrošništva in robotizacije v novinarstvu.
The article derives from debates on impoverishment of journalism as labour that has been through technological innovations historically torn between business goals aimed at realizing profits for media owners and journalistic goals of connecting citizens to social life grounded on the right to communicate. The authors of the report Many Voices, One World based their normative concerns for communication on the right to communicate that concerns citizens' abilities to access information, voice opinions and participate in public life and thereafter departs from understandings of press freedom that rest on property rights. By adopting the labour process theory the article reveals the logic of deskilling of journalists and analyses implications of deprofessionalization of journalism for enforcing the right to communicate with a special emphasis on the phenomena of precarization, prosumption and robotization in journalism.
A broad introduction to the changing roles of intellectual property within societyIntellectual property is one of the most confusing-and widely used-dimensions of the law. By granting exclusive ...rights to publish, manufacture, copy, or distribute information and technology, IP laws shape our cultures, our industries, and our politics in countless ways, with consequences for everyone, including artists, inventors, entrepreneurs, and citizens at large. In this engaging, accessible study, Aram Sinnreich uncovers what's behind current debates and what the future holds for copyrights, patents, and trademarks.
This Routledge Focus aims to investigate and analyse the United Kingdom’s relationship with the European Communities (EC) and the European Union (EU). Since joining the EC in 1973, the UK has had a ...fraught relationship with the organization, declining closer economic union in the eurozone and, often, arguing against closer political union. While some 67% of the UK’s voters opted to remain in the EC in a referendum held in 1975, by June 2016 a narrow majority favoured leaving the EU. This volume evaluates the UK’s journey into the Union, and examines how the country’s voters came to decide on Brexit, and where the UK’s departure from the EU may lead it.

Das Urheberrecht verhindert ein Marktversagen, indem es immaterielle Guter ausschlielich und damit marktfahig macht. Die Ausschlielichkeit hat aber eine Kehrseite: Verbietet der Rechtsinhaber ...Nutzungen, ohne sie (auf eine bestimmte Art) selbst vorzunehmen, liegen vergriffene Werke brach, werden Innovationen behindert und wissenschaftliche Zeitschriften prohibitiv verteuert. Abhilfe konnte die urheberrechtliche Zwangslizenz schaffen. Die im Urheberrechtsgesetz geregelte besondere Art des Kontrahierungszwangs - der Rechtsinhaber muss eine Lizenz erteilen, kann aber die Lizenzbedingungen verhandeln - fuhrt in Literatur und Gesetzgebung ein Schattendasein. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, diese Lucke zu schlieen. Zunachst wird rechtsvergleichend und ausgerichtet am Ziel normativer Effizienz geklart, ob und in welchen Fallen eine urheberrechtliche Zwangslizenz geregelt werden sollte. Anschlieend wird untersucht, wie sie effektiv und mit hoherrangigem Recht vereinbar ausgestaltet werden konnte.
