Présentation de l'éditeur

Le Guide des modes amiables est un concept original qui vise à présenter la diversité des outils amiables mais aussi et surtout à permettre d'en maîtriser techniquement l'usage. Il replace les modes amiables dans un contexte où le recours au juge devient subsidiaire pour des raisons de pacification des relations sociales autant que dans un souci de gestion des flux judiciaires. La rédaction, faite par des praticiens expérimentés de l'amiable avec la collaboration d'une universitaire, permet d'envisager la variété des questions qu'un avocat, directeur juridique ou magistrat peut se poser pour choisir le bon outil et mener le processus amiable de bout en bout en pleine sécurité juridique. La confidentialité des processus, le coût associé, la question du choix de l'intervenant idoine ou la manière de consolider les accords pour éviter tout contentieux sont envisagés pour permettre un usage éclairé. La rédaction collective de l'ouvrage assure une compréhension de l'articulation des différents modes amiables qui peuvent se succéder dans le temps mais aussi se combiner. Si l'ouvrage vise à mieux comprendre et maîtriser les modes amiables, qu'ils soient extra-judiciaires ou judiciaires, il ne passe sous silence aucune critique ou danger potentiel pour alerter les praticiens et assurer leur vigilance.   

Le guide s'adresse à un public varié ainsi qu'en témoigne la diversité de profils des rédacteurs. La présentation en 29 fiches envisage les différentes questions que doivent se poser tous les intervenants potentiels dans les modes amiables avocats, magistrats, conciliateurs, médiateurs, directeurs juridiques, huissiers de justice, notaires... 

Parce que le droit applicable aux modes amiables est en construction, que l'amiable résulte autant de savoir être que de savoir-faire, les universitaires et étudiants trouveront également dans le guide des éléments de compréhension des éléments non juridiques qui les sous-tendent (communication non violente, négociation raisonnée, PNL )

In the Holy Roman Empire 'no prince... can forbid men passage in the common road', wrote the English jurist John Selden. In practice, moving through one the most fractured landscapes in human history was rarely as straightforward as suggested by Selden's account of the German 'liberty of passage'.

Across the Old Reich, mobile populations-from emperors to peasants-defied attempts to channel their mobility with actions ranging from mockery to bloodshed. In this study, Luca Scholz charts this contentious ordering of movement through the lens of safe conduct, an institution that was common throughout the early modern world but became a key framework for negotiating freedom of movement and its restriction in the Empire.

Borders and Freedom of Movement in the Holy Roman Empire draws on sources discovered in twenty archives, from newly unearthed drawings to first-hand accounts by peasants, princes, and prisoners. Scholz's maps shift the focus from the border to the thoroughfare to show that controls of moving goods and people were rarely concentrated at borders before the mid-eighteenth century. Uncovering a forgotten chapter in the history of free movement, the author presents a new look at the unstable relationship of political authority and human mobility in the heartlands of old-regime Europe.

Présentation de l'éditeur

En adoptant la loi Maptam en 2014 puis la loi NOTRe en 2015, le législateur a fixé le cadre d’une transformation rapide et profonde de l’organisation territoriale de la France. Elle consiste prioritairement à augmenter la taille et les compétences des régions et à reconnaître aux métropoles un rôle de locomotive pour la croissance économique. Cet ouvrage dresse un premier bilan de la réforme territoriale et en dégage les grands enjeux à long terme, sous les regards croisés d’historiens, de géographes, de juristes, de gestionnaires et d’économistes étayés par des analyses de terrains.

Avec le soutien de l’université de Poitiers.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Law of the Seabed reviews the most pressing legal questions raised by the use and protection of natural resources on and underneath the world’s seabeds. 

While barely accessible, the seabed plays a major role in the Earth’s ecological balance. It is both a medium and a resource, and is central to the blue economy. New uses and new knowledge about seabed ecosystems, and the risks of disputes due to competing interests, urge reflection on which regulatory approaches to pursue. 

The regulation of ocean activities is essentially sector-based, and the book puts in parallel the international and national regimes for seabed mining, oil and gas, energy generation, bottom fisheries, marine genetic resources, carbon sequestration and maritime security operations, both within and beyond the national jurisdiction. 

The book contains seven parts respectively addressing the definition of the seabed from a multidisciplinary perspective, the principles of jurisdiction delimitation under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the regimes for use of non-living, living and marine biodiversity resources, the role of state and non-state actors, the laying and removal of installations, the principles for sustainable and equitable use (common heritage of mankind, precaution, benefit sharing), and management tools to ensure coexistence between activities as well as the protection of the marine environment.
