    Abstract: This book presents the results of an international comparative study on the causes of rule deviation in business and medical organizations. Based on document and interview analyses as well as experiments, the discrepancy between (state) regulations and organizational practice is elaborated and discussed in an interdisciplinary perspective. On the basis of the distinction between organizational and individual deviance, it could be shown across national boundaries that the unwritten rules of the organization make a decisive contribution in explaining organizational wrongdoing, as well as their containment. Implications for effective prevention derived from this are also pointed out.

    Abstract: Internetquellen in der Praxis -- Berücksichtigung von Internetquellen -- Selbstständige Internetrecherche des Gerichts -- Rechtsvergleich mit dem US-amerikanischen Zivilprozessrecht
    Abstract: Internetquellen spielen in der Praxis der deutschen Zivilgerichte eine wichtige Rolle. Gleichzeitig sind die Grundlagen und Voraussetzungen ihrer Berücksichtigung weitgehend ungeklärt. Vielfach wird das Rechtsinstitut der Offenkundigkeit gemäß § 291 ZPO herangezogen, um gerichtliche Internetrecherchen zu legitimieren. Dem widerspricht Georg Haas anhand einer umfassenden Auslegung der Vorschrift und zeigt auf, dass die Berücksichtigung von Internetquellen grundsätzlich im Rahmen des Beweisverfahrens zu erfolgen hat. Auf dieser Grundlage kann sich eine Befugnis des Gerichts zu Internetrecherchen insbesondere aus den Regeln über die Beweisaufnahme von Amts wegen ergeben. Diese Befunde werden durch eine rechtsvergleichende Untersuchung des US-amerikanischen Zivilprozessrechts erhärtet. Zudem zeigen die Erkenntnisse aus dem Bereich der Kognitionspsychologie, dass unbeschränkte richterliche (Internet-)Recherchen erhebliche Risiken bergen. Der Inhalt Internetquellen in der Praxis Berücksichtigung von Internetquellen Selbstständige Internetrecherche des Gerichts Rechtsvergleich mit dem US-amerikanischen Zivilprozessrecht Die Zielgruppen Dozierende und Studierende der Fachgebiete Zivilprozessrecht und Rechtsvergleichung Richter und Richterinnen sowie Rechtsanwälte und -anwältinnen Der Autor Georg Alexander Haas ist Rechtsanwalt in Frankfurt am Main

    Abstract: Die Dissertation durchmisst ein ausweislich des Koalitionsvertrages für die 19. Legislaturperiode gesetzgeberisch noch unzulänglich strukturiertes Feld des Wirtschaftsstrafrechts. Oliver Jedynak untersucht die besonderen Schwierigkeiten bei internen Erhebungen, bei denen die Anforderungen unterschiedlicher Rechtsgebiete zu beachten sind. Auch die Tätigkeit eines Unternehmensanwalts wirft eine Reihe rechtlicher und praktischer Fragen auf, wenn es darum geht, Unternehmen im Hinblick auf drohende oder bereits anhängige Ermittlungsverfahren zu beraten. Hier spielt insbesondere die Frage nach der Beschlagnahmefreiheit von anwaltlichen Unterlagen eine große Rolle. Durch die aktuellen Fälle VW, DFB und FIFA sowie das Urteil des BVerfG in der Causa Jones-Day sind interne Erhebungen wieder in den Fokus der Öffentlichkeit gerückt.

    Abstract: Philipp Maximilian Schmidt untersucht die Möglichkeit bzw. Zweckdienlichkeit eines international einheitlichen Lösungsansatzes in Bezug auf Fälle in denen die Ausübung der Meinungsfreiheit mit einer möglichen Verletzung von religiösen Gefühlen einhergeht. Der Schwerpunkt der Arbeit liegt in der Beantwortung folgender Fragestellungen: Inwiefern ist die Meinungs- und Religionsfreiheit in den verschiedenen Rechtsordnungen geschützt? Werden der Meinungsfreiheit zum Schutz von Religionen Grenzen gesetzt? Welche Übereinstimmungen und Unterschiede lassen sich feststellen? Ist ein grenzüberschreitender Konsens möglich? Als Basis zur Beantwortung dieser Fragestellungen dient eine rechtsvergleichende Untersuchung der Rechtsordnungen von Deutschland, Malaysia und den USA.

    Abstract: "International law presents a conceptual riddle. Why comply with it when there is no world government to enforce it? The United States has a long history of skepticism towards international law, but 9/11 ushered in a particularly virulent phase of American exceptionalism. Torture became official government policy, President Bush denied that the Geneva Conventions applied to the war against al-Qaeda, and the US drifted away from international institutions like the International Criminal Court and the United Nations. Although American politicians and their legal advisors are often the public face of this attack, the root of this movement is a coordinated and deliberate attack by law professors hostile to its philosophical foundations, including Eric Posner, Jack Goldsmith, Adrian Vermeule, and John Yoo. In a series of influential writings they have claimed that since states are motivated primarily by self-interest, compliance with international law is nothing more than high-minded talk. Theses abstract arguments then provide a foundation for dangerous legal conclusions: that international law is largely irrelevant to determining how and when terrorists can be captured or killed; that the US President alone should be directing the War on Terror without significant input from Congress or the judiciary; that US courts should not hear lawsuits alleging violations of international law; and that the US should block any international criminal court with jurisdiction over Americans. Put together, these polemical accounts had an enormous impact on how politicians conduct foreign policy and how judges decide cases - ultimately triggering America's pernicious withdrawal from international cooperation. In The Assault on International Law, Jens Ohlin exposes the mistaken assumptions of these 'New Realists,' in particular their impoverished utilization of rational choice theory. In contrast, he provides an alternate vision of international law based on a truly innovative theory of human rationality. According to Ohlin, rationality requires that agents follow through on their plans even when faced with opportunities for defection. Seen in this light, international law is the product of nation-states cooperating to escape a brutish State of Nature--a result that is not only legally binding but also in each state's self-interest"--

    Abstract: "In Rough Justice, David Bosco tells the story of the movement to establish the International Criminal Court and its tumultuous first decade. He also considers its prospects for the future, especially the very real challenges that it faces. He has access to many of the court's principals, and this will be an authoritative account of an international institution that is prototypical of the post-Cold War era"--
    Abstract: "Ten years ago, in the wake of massive crimes in central Africa and the Balkans, the first permanent international criminal court was established in The Hague despite resistance from some of the world's most powerful states. In the past decade, the court has grown from a few staff in an empty building to a bustling institution with more than a thousand lawyers, investigators, and administrators from around the world. Despite its growth and the backing of more than 120 nations, the ICC is still struggling to assert itself in often turbulent political crises. The ICC is generally autonomous in its ability to select cases and investigate crimes, but it is ultimately dependent on sovereign states, and particularly on the world's leading powers. These states can provide the diplomatic, economic, and military clout the court often needs to get cooperation-and to arrest suspects. But states don't expend precious political capital lightly, and the court has often struggled to get the help it needs. When their interests are most affected, moreover, powerful states usually want the court to keep its distance. Directly and indirectly, they make their preferences known in The Hague. Rough Justice grapples with the court's basic dilemma: designed to be apolitical, it requires the support of politicians who pursue national interests and answer to domestic audiences. Through a sharp analysis of the dynamics at work behind the scenes, Bosco assesses the ways in which powerful states have shaped the court's effort to transform the vision of international justice into reality. This will be the definitive account of the Court and its uneven progress toward advancing accountability around the world"--
