The concept of "Exclusivism" is considered to represent one of the most characteristic features of International Nuclear Law. This concept is reflected by regulating matters of uses of nuclear energy and ionising radiation exclusively by distinct principles, that govern legal relations arising in these matters. The concept of "Exclusivism" has been widely reflected in the provisions of international conventions, which have been adopted since the 1960s. This article aims to revisit this concept, taking the most recent developments in international and European law into regard. The article is dealing with the reasons and origins of the concept of "Exclusivism" in International Nuclear Law, with reflections of this concept in existing international treaties and at last but not at least, with most recent tendencies, that aim at jeopardising this concept., Jakub Handrlica., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
This paper examines the possibility and the desirability of axiomatization in law. In the first part, the paper examines the notion of axiom and the ways how it was or could be introduced into law. It is here where the authors openly invite the reader to lose the conventional approach and think about alternative ways to build basic legal concepts. In the second part, the paper continues by presenting several theories which endeavored (or appeared to endeavor) to show that law can (and should be) axiomatized and which even attempted to axiomatize it. After establishing whether these theories were successful at all, the authors add some of their own ideas on the topic of axiomatization., Martin Madej, Filip Horák., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
The article deals with the principle of openness in the judiciary, specifically communicating judicial decisions to the public. Firstly, it discusses the relation between publicity and transparency of courts on the one hand and their legitimacy on the other. While the authors believe that the judiciary should be increasingly open to the public and point out benefits of that approach, they also recognize the risks thereof. Based on a comparative analysis of courts in a number of European states as well as the CJEU and ECHR the article analyses typical approaches to communication of judicial decisions. The final chapter contains normative conclusions which can serve as general guidelines applicable within the European judiciary., Daniel Askari, Kristina Blažková, Jan Chmel, Kristina Rademacherová., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
Pre vedenie korektnej diskusie odbornej verejnosti o vhodnom prístupe k archeologickému kultúrnemu dedičstvu v ustavične sa meniacich podmienkach je nevyhnutné disponovať základnými informáciami o spôsoboch, ktoré v danej oblasti zvolili iné štáty a o dôsledkoch, ktoré ich právna úprava vyvolala v praktickej rovine. Príspevok poskytuje prehľad o súčasnom stave právnych úprav ochrany archeologického kultúrneho dedičstva vo vybraných štátoch Európy, konkrétne o zákonnej definícii predmetu ochrany, oznamovacej povinnosti nálezcu archeologického nálezu vo vzťahu k štátnemu orgánu, otázke vlastníckeho práva k predmetom archeologického kultúrneho dedičstva, náleznom a detektoroch kovov. and For the purpose of holding a proper discussion within the professional community about a suitable approach to the archaeological cultural heritage in continually changing conditions, it is necessary to have basic information about the ways which other states have chosen in the given area, as well as to be aware of the effect, which their legal regulations have had on the practical level. In an informative way, this contribution provides an overview of the current state of legal regulations pertaining to archaeological cultural heritage protection in selected European states, in particular describing the legal definition of an object under protection, the notification obligation of the finder of an archaeological find in relation to state authorities, the question of ownership rights to objects which are part of the archaeological cultural heritage and the finder’s reward. The issue of legal regulation of the use of metal detectors in archaeology is presented in a detailed way.
The four decades of breath-taking political and economic changes in China raise a host of questions about the governance of this, in many ways unique, world power. The authors analyse the economic, political and historical context of the origins and operation of the present-day Chinese political model, the country’s legal system and the role of the Communist Party in the Chinese society, similar in many ways to the role previously played by China’s imperial dynasties. They also highlight the new trends in Chinese domestic politics and foreign policy of the late 2010s, which bear witness to a sustained effort of the Chinese political leadership to enhance China’s great-power status on the global stage., Miloš Balabán, Michal Tomášek., and Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
