Book Description
Mediation provides an attractive alternative to resolving disputes through court proceedings. Mediation promises just results in the interest of all parties concerned, a reduction of the court caseload, and cost savings for the parties involved as well as for the treasury. The European Directive on Mediation has given mediation in Europe new momentum by establishing a common framework for cross-border mediation. Beyond Europe, many states have tried in recent years to answer the question whether, and if so, how mediation should be regulated at a national and international level. The aim of this book is to promote the understanding and discussion of regulatory issues by presenting comparative research on mediation. It describes and analyses the law and practice of mediation in twenty-two countries. Europe is represented by chapters on mediation in Austria, Bulgaria, England, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal and Spain. The world beyond Europe is analysed in chapters on mediation in Australia, Canada, China, Japan, New Zealand, Russia, Switzerland and the USA. Against this background, further chapters on fundamental issues identify possible regulatory models and discuss central principles of mediation law and practice. In particular, the work considers harmonisation and diversity in the law of mediation as well as the economic and constitutional problems associated with privatising civil justice. To the extent available, empirical research is used as a point of reference in the critical analysis.

A Shift in the Security Paradigm
Author: J. Martín Ramírez
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 303043253X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
This book discusses some of the strategic lines in front of the trends related to the new challenges of global security in this new century: some rather universal problems (migration, terrorism, cyberspace, conflict resolutions techniques in prisons, economic intelligence), as well as more military ones (new conflicts: new world stage, new weapons, new military doctrines, mass destruction weapons and nuclear arms control, outer space and ocean depths), without forgetting some global and conceptual topics (disintegration is driving insecurity, searching for quality in international affairs, shield of security culture through data protection, information society and the protective influence of security culture). A special focus is put on Europe's interests. The unique, complex process of integration of European states is confronted by various problems caused by the implementation of different political visions presented by the factions of the European Union's establishment. The diverse interpretation of the goals and paths of development of this organization leads to the violation of its cohesion, which is used by global partners with the opportunity to broaden their influence and achieve their own goals by playing European countries individually. There is a need for the EU to go further to achieve a deeper level of integration and strategic autonomy which would allow for the implementation of a coherent policy towards the powers.

Justicia restaurativa, mediación penal y penitenciaria: un renovado impulso
Author: José Miguel Sánchez Tomás
Publisher: Editorial Reus
ISBN: 8429016813
Category : Law
Languages : es
Pages : 400
Book Description
Este libro versa sobre las posibilidades de llevar al sistema penal instrumentos restaurativos que estimulen la resolución dialogada de las consecuencias generadas por el delito y de los conflictos que se hallan en su génesis, prestando especial atención -pero no exclusivamente- a la mediación reparadora. Se trata de una obra colectiva, donde sus autores profundizan en la formulación teórica de esta figura, en su compatibilidad con los fines y principios del derecho penal moderno, al tiempo que se informa de cómo, a pesar de la falta de regulación específica, la mediación intraprocesal se ha convertido en una práctica cada vez más extendida en la jurisdicción penal de adultos. Pero además de afianzar el trayecto teórico y práctico recorrido, esta obra explora nuevos caminos, indagando sobre la aplicabilidad de principios de justicia restaurativa a los delitos más graves, sin eludir los delitos de terrorismo; o sobre la utilidad de la mediación en casos de violencia de género leve y ocasional, partiendo siempre, como no podía ser de otra forma, de la voluntariedad de las partes y de la constatación de que no existen relaciones de dominación. La mediación en el ámbito penitenciario, en el derecho penal de menores o con drogodependientes, son otros de los temas abordados. La diversa procedencia de los autores: profesores de universidad, operadores jurídicos y tejido asociativo, implica una pluralidad de miradas que sin duda enriquece el análisis que sobre justicia restaurativa y mediación penal se ofrece en este libro.

Jihadism, Foreign Fighters and Radicalization in the EU
Author: Inmaculada Marrero Rocha
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429887884
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
Jihadism, Foreign Fighters and Radicalization in the EU addresses the organizational and strategic changes in terrorism in Europe as a result of urban jihadism and the influx of foreign fighters of European nationality or residence. Examining the different types of responses to the treatment of radicalization and its consequences in the recruitment of young urban fighters and jihadists, this book offers a framework for understanding the process of violent radicalization. It critically analyses political and legal responses that have taken place within the European framework, whilst also examining a series of functional responses from social and behavioural psychology. This book then goes on to develop an explanatory model from an economic standpoint, exploring the need to adapt the fight against the financing of terrorism to the changes in the sources of financing jihadist cells and foreign fighters. Furthermore, the volume draws on experience from the prison sector to assess the process of radicalization and the possibilities of intervention. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this book will be of great interest to students of terrorism and counter-terrorism, radicalization, European politics, radical Islam and security studies.

Community Punishment
Author: Gwen Robinson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317666577
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
In Community Punishment: European perspectives, the authors place punishment in the community under the spotlight by exploring the origins, evolution and adaptations of supervision in 11 European jurisdictions. For most people, punishment in the criminal justice system is synonymous with imprisonment. Yet, both in Europe and in the USA, the numbers of people under some form of penal supervision in the community far exceeds the numbers in prison, and many prisoners are released under supervision. Written and edited by leading scholars in the field, this collection advances the sociology of punishment by illuminating the neglected but crucial phenomenon of ‘mass supervision’. As well as putting criminological and penological theories to the test in an examination of their ability to explain the evolution of punishment beyond the prison, and across diverse states, the contributors to this volume also assess the appropriateness of the term ‘community punishment’ in different parts of Europe. Engaging in a serious exploration of common themes and differences in the jurisdictions included in the collection, the authors go on to examine how ‘community punishment’ came into being in their jurisdiction and how its institutional forms and practices have been legitimated and re-legitimated in response to shifting social, cultural and political contexts. This book is essential reading for academics and students involved in the study of both community punishment and comparative penology, but will also be of great interest to criminal justice policymakers, managers and practitioners.

Cross-Cultural Dialogue as a Conflict Management Strategy
Author: J. Martín Ramírez
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319772317
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 163
Book Description
This book contributes to the current knowledge and research on conflict and cross-cultural dialogue, emphasizing how respect, tolerance and dialogue may be quite effective tools for bridging the diverse cultures and, consequently, for solving many of the conflicts of today’s world, characterized by a dynamic interchange of populations with very diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds. For this purpose, we rely on reputed scholars from ten different countries, and from different cultures and fields of expertise, which allows for diverse contributions from a valuable interdisciplinary perspective. The first section of the book deals with the correlation between cultural differences and conflict, while also showing how such conflicts can be prevented and, should they arise, managed and solved. The second section addresses a different, more specific issue: how cultural expression means and tools for cultural communication may lead to conflict whereas they may help to avoid it as well. Finally, the third section analyzes how legal and justice systems deal with cross-cultural conflicts as well as with situations which may lead to cross-cultural conflicts, thus assessing to which extent such systems contribute to avoid and/or solve such kind of conflicts.
