Als u deze samenvatting leest, zult u ontdekken dat de geschiedenis van de wiskunde niets te benijden heeft aan de ontdekking van de Nieuwe Wereld. Het is ook spannend en verrassend! De getallen die wij elke dag gebruiken, de vormen die wij tekenen, de stellingen die onze kinderen leren, zijn allemaal het resultaat van een geniale zet van een van onze verre voorouders en hebben eeuwen van twijfel overleefd, om ons leven vandaag de dag gemakkelijker te maken. Bent u klaar om terug te gaan in de tijd en degenen te ontmoeten die de wiskunde deden? Je zult ook ontdekken dat : de meeste wiskundige stellingen zijn ontwikkeld vanuit zeer concrete problemen uit het dagelijks leven; de geschiedenis van de wiskunde is veranderd door wonderbaarlijke mannen en vrouwen die deze discipline hebben gerevolutioneerd; het duurt soms lang voordat wiskundige theorieën door de wetenschappelijke gemeenschap worden aanvaard. De auteur vertelt dat hij zijn kraam op de kleine zomermarkt van La Flotte-en-Ré heeft opgezet, tussen een kraam met Afrikaanse vlechten en een andere met mobiele telefoons. De plaats leek hem ongewoon: dat is goed, hij houdt ervan om wiskunde te bedrijven op onwaarschijnlijke plaatsen. Hij zou blij moeten zijn om de brede ogen van schoolkinderen of hun grootouders te zien die, door origami te oefenen of raadsels op te lossen, beseffen dat wiskunde spannend kan zijn. Maar diep van binnen heeft hij medelijden met zichzelf. Waarom heeft deze discipline zo'n slechte pers, terwijl ze aan de basis ligt van zoveel dingen? Waarom is het zo eng? Het is tijd om het te temmen door middel van een roman en de grote stappen te ontdekken die zijn geschiedenis ...

Many people believe passionately in human rights. Others - Bentham, Marx, cultural relativists and some feminists amongst them - dismiss the concept of human rights as practically and conceptually inadequate. This book reviews these classical critiques and shows how their insights are reflected in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. At one level an original, accessible and insightful legal commentary on the European Convention, this book is also a groundbreaking work of theory which challenges human rights orthodoxy. Its novel identification of four human rights schools proposes that we alternatively conceive of these rights as given (natural school), agreed upon (deliberative school), fought for (protest school) and talked about (discourse school). Which of these concepts we adopt is determined by particular ways in which we believe, or do not believe, in human rights.

This collection celebrates the career of Professor Alan Dashwood, a leading member of the generation of British academics who organised, explained and analysed what we now call European Union law for the benefit of lawyers trained in the common law tradition. It takes as its starting point Professor Dashwood's vivid description of the European Union as a 'constitutional order of states'. He intended that phrase to capture the unique character of the Union. On the one hand, it is a supranational order characterised by its own distinctive institutional dynamics and an unprecedented level of cohesion among, and penetration into, the national legal systems. On the other hand, it remains an organisation of derived powers, the Member States retaining their character as sovereign entities under international law. This theme permeates both the constitutional and the substantive law of the Union. Contributors to the collection include members of the judiciary and distinguished practitioners, officials and academics. They consider the foundations, strengths, implications and shortcomings of this conceptual framework in various fields of EU law and policy. The collection is an essential purchase for anyone interested in the constitutional framework of the contemporary European Union.

Every human rights lawyer, at some point or other, comes across an issue of conflicting human rights. Yet there is surprisingly little literature on this issue; especially if one wants to examine the matter at a general level, above specific conflicts such as those between freedom of expression and the right to non-discrimination, or between religious freedom and women's rights. The international conference on conflicts between fundamental rights, which took place in Ghent (Belgium) in December 2006, brought together a diverse group of human rights scholars who reflected on this issue from different angles. The papers in this volume are selected from among those that were presented at the conference. The issue of conflicting rights is examined in both domestic and international human rights law, and deals with many different types of human rights, including economic and social rights. Some are empirical, describing and analyzing how courts and legislators deal with these issues. Others adopt a normative approach, establishing criteria that may guide future judges and lawmakers confronted with conflicts between fundamental rights.

The Proliferation of Rights explores how the assertion of rights has expanded dramatically since World War II. Carl Wellman illuminates for the reader the historical developments in each of the major categories of rights, including human rights, civil rights, women's rights, patient rights, and animal rights. He concludes by assessing where this proliferation has been legitimate and helpful, cases where it has been illusory and unproductive, and alternatives to the appeal to rights.

From the viewpoint of the constitutional crisis in Europe, slow UN reforms, difficulties implementing the Kyoto Protocol and the International Criminal Court, and tensions between human rights and trade, Mireille Delmas-Marty's 'journey through the legal landscape' of the early years of the 21st century shows it to be dominated by imprecision, uncertainty and instability. The early 21st century appears to be the era of great disorder: in the silence of the market and the fracas of arms, a world overly fragmented by anarchical globalisation is being unified too quickly through hegemonic integration. How, she asks, can we move beyond the relative and the universal to build order without imposing it, to accept pluralism without giving up on a common law? Neither utopian fusion nor illusory autonomy, Ordering Pluralism is her answer: both an epistemological revolution and an art, it means creating a common legal area by progressive adjustments that preserve diversity. Since an immutable world order is impossible, the imaginative forces of law must be called upon to invent a flexible process of harmonisation that leaves room for believing we can agree on - and protect - common values. 'The book is timely and relevant to the practical concerns of those who work with, and within, the legal system. We must thank Professor Delmas-Marty for her fine work.' From the foreword, Stephen Breyer, Washington, DC

The present handbook analyzes private law as it evolves in an increasingly integrated Europe. It contains a collection of new essays, including contributions on corporation law, trust, sales law, (fair and unfair) competition law, liability for services, environmental liability, products liability, personal injuries law, and periods of limitation. All essays touch upon policy issues related to the harmonization of private law in Europe. They are designed not only to offer a comprehensive overview of the different topics, but also to contribute to and nourish current controversial debates. This two-volume reference book fills a gap in the comparative law literature. On the one hand, it offers quick and easy access to most discussions concerning European private law. On the other, the handbook addresses issues that appear to be largely overlooked by contemporary literature, despite their growing importance. Indeed, it purports (a) to examine current and possible future developments of European private law as they affect the lives of private, business, and public actors; and (b) to investigate what European private law is and could be, rather than what it ought to be. The handbook is thus not meant to simply describe substantive law, but instead to analyze and compare private law institutions in their cultural and social contexts. Its aim is to show how legal comparison can be used to study not only the evolution of European supranational rules, but also the role and functions European lawyers assign to national rules. Depending on history and geography, these national rules can serve as protective shields, factors of competition, off-springs of an immutable tradition, or a fertile ground for future developments.

This handbook provides reliable information on private law in an increasingly integrated Europe. It contains a collection of specially commissioned essays, including contributions on: corporation law, trust, law of sales, competition law, products liability, personal injuries law, limitation periods, the harmonization of European private law, and more. The essays are designed not only to offer a comprehensive overview of the different topics, but also to display and provoke lively and controversial debate. The handbook addresses some issues that appear to be both growing in momentum and largely overlooked by contemporary literature, namely a) the need to examine current and possible future developments in European private law institutions and issues affecting the legal lives of private, business, and public actors; b) the opportunity to fill a gap in the comparative literature through a concise reference book, which offers quick and easy access to the most relevant legal issues; and c) the cultural debate as to what European private law is and could be, rather than what it ought to be. It follows that the handbook is not meant to simply describe substantive law, but instead to "compare" private law institutions and cultures.
