Mapping the Territorial Scope of EU Law
2024 || Hardcover || Wessel Geursen || Eleven international publishing
With globalisation, digitisation, more cross-border movement of persons and multinational businesses, events and cases have increasingly become transnational.

These developments raise questions about the territorial scope of legislation. In this book, 28 mechanisms have been identified which influence the territorial scope of EU law. With those mechanisms, t...
Rethinking Expropriation Law IV
Takings for Climate Justice and Resilience
2024 || Paperback || M. Habdas e.a. || Eleven international publishing
The latest IPCC report makes it abundantly clear that we are failing to reach the target of limiting global warming to 1.5°C compared to the pre-industrial era. If we are to reach this target, we need to take measures to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, to move away from fossil fuels as energy sources and to adopt renewable energy sources. Particularly high-income countries need to reduce consumption and the exploitation of nature. Enforcement is in order when incentives such as subs...

In Anticipation of a Future Period of Incapacity
The Dutch ‘Levenstestament’ from a Legal, Empirical and Comparative Perspective
2024 || Paperback || H.N. Stelma-Roorda || Eleven international publishing
With an ageing population, the number of people with dementia is expected to increase in the coming decades. Dementia can seriously impair a person’s ability to act and decide. In the Netherlands, adults can provide for such a future period of incapacity through a so-called levenstestament. A levenstestament can include the appointment of an attorney for financial, medical and/or personal matters, but also the adult’s wishes, preferences and instructions regarding these matters. Over the ...

The first part relates to the use and deployment of AI systems in the corporate boardroom and in the con...
Making Surveillance Public
Why You Should Be More Woke About AI and Algorithms
2024 || Hardcover || Marc Schuilenburg || Eleven international publishing
What are the new questions raised by AI for the prevention and detection of crime? How can we rationalise the Amazon Ring doorbell and Tesla’s Sentry Mode? How can algoracism be identified, and what should we think of data donation?
Surveillance today cannot be understood without an awareness of how AI and algorithms have become increasingly central in the governance of security. They have led to a substantial expansion in the depth and breadth of surveillance, ranging from mass data colle...
Evidence and Transnational Punitive Enforcement Proceedings in the European Union
The gathering, sharing, and use of evidence by Member States’ administrative and judicial authorities during transnational punitive enforcement proceedings in the EU’s integrated internal market
2024 || Hardcover || A.J. de Vries || Eleven international publishing
In many fields, enforcement of EU policies is performed by the Member States. In principle, Member States are free to decide how and by which means they enforce such policies, albeit under the observance of EU legal principles and harmonised rules. While differences between Member States are inevitable, especially at the interface of criminal and administrative enforcement, they should not create legal obstacles to effective and rule of law-based enforcement in cross-border cases. In his diss...

Facing the Past
Policies and Good Practices for Responses to Illegal Intercountry Adoptions
2024 || Hardcover || Elvira Loibl e.a. || Eleven international publishing
In a growing number of countries, inquiries into past intercountry adoptions take place that identify systemic abuses and irregularities and conclude that adoption stakeholders encouraged or facilitated illegal intercountry adoptions. However, so far, the response from these stakeholders has been inadequate in addressing the profound human rights violations endured by those affected by illegal adoptions. Despite the growing movement of adoptees advocating for justice on behalf of themselves a...
