Council of Europe Law
Author: Florence Benoît-Rohmer
Publisher: Council of Europe
ISBN: 9287155941
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Since its foundation, the Council of Europe has established a common legal system for European states, based on democracy, the rule of law and human rights. Its standard-setting texts have helped its members meet the challenges of changing societies and now apply all over Europe given the organisation¿s unprecedented geographical enlargement since 1989. In this connection, the Council of Europe has played a key role in the accession of the new member states to the European Union. The first section of the book deals with the "constitutional" law of the Council of Europe, or its internal statutes in the broad sense. It covers the 1949 Statute, which, along with related texts, lays down the Council¿s aims and determines its membership and operating methods. The second section concerns the role played by the Council of Europe - which has always been very active in standard-setting - in the harmonisation of European states¿ domestic law. The third section situates Council of Europe law in the European context. For instance, it studies the extent to which Council of Europe conventions have been incorporated in domestic law and how Council of Europe law and European Union law co-exist.

Convention du Conseil de l’Europe sur la prévention et la lutte contre la violence à l’égard des femmes et la violence domestique - Un outil pour mettre fin aux mutilations génitales féminines
Author: Council of Europe
Publisher: Council of Europe
ISBN: 9287180776
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
Ce guide, produit conjointement par Amnesty International et le Conseil de l’Europe, a pour but d’offrir une aide dans la conception de politiques et de mesures visant à mieux répondre au problème des mutilations génitales féminines, et d’ouvrir la voie au changement. Il se fonde sur la Convention du Conseil de l’Europe sur la prévention et la lutte contre la violence à l’égard des femmes et la violence domestique (également connue sous le nom de Convention d’Istanbul), qui est entrée en vigueur en août 2014. La Convention d’Istanbul est le premier traité à reconnaître l’existence des mutilations génitales féminines en Europe et la nécessité d’une réponse systématique en la matière (article 38 de la convention). Elle exige des États parties qu’ils renforcent les mesures de prévention en s’adressant aux communautés affectées, tout comme au grand public et aux professionnels concernés. Elle génère l’obligation d’offrir protection et soutien aux femmes et aux filles en danger lorsqu’elles en ont le plus besoin. Elle place également au premier plan leurs besoins et leur sécurité.

Good Administration and the Council of Europe
Author: Ulrich Stelkens
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192605933
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 961
Book Description
Good Administration and the Council of Europe: Law, Principles, and Effectiveness examines the existence and effectiveness of written and unwritten standards of good administration developed within the framework of the Council of Europe (CoE) and in the case law of the European Court of Human Rights. These standards - called 'pan- European general principles of good administration' - cover the entire range of general organizational, procedural, and substantive legal institutions meant to ensure a democratically legitimized, open, and transparent administration respecting the rule of law. They are about the 'limiting function' of administrative law: its function to protect individuals from arbitrary power, to legitimize administrative action, and to combat corruption. This book analyses the sources and functions of the pan-European general principles of good administration and seeks to uncover how deeply they are rooted in the domestic legal systems of the CoE Member States. It comprises 28 country reports dedicated to an in-depth exploration of the impact of these standards on the national legal systems of the Member States written by respective experts on these systems. It argues that the pan-European general principles of good administration lead to a certain harmonization of the legal orders of the Member States with regard to the limiting function of administrative law despite the many fundamental differences between their administrative and legal systems. It comes to the further conclusion that the pan-European general principles of good administration can be considered as a concretization of the founding values of the CoE and describes the 'administrative law obligations' a Member State entered into when joining the CoE.

Autonomy of Sport in Europe
Author: Jean-Loup Chappelet
Publisher: Council of Europe
ISBN: 9789287167200
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
Given the impact that successive court rulings have had on the organisation of the sports movement in the past 15 years, the autonomy of non-governmental sports organisations has become a highly topical concern in Europe. It is also closely related to the issue of governance, the subject of previous Council of Europe studies. The Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) decided to explore the concept of autonomy in greater depth by studying the conceptual, political, legal, economic and psycho-sociological aspects of the subject. This study was carried out at the request of the EPAS by the Swiss Graduate School of Public Administration (IDHEAP) on the basis of a questionnaire sent to public authorities in charge of sport and to national and international umbrella sports organisations. In addition to an analysis of the data obtained, documents produced by public authorities and sports organisations on this emerging issue are presented. This study contributes to a better understanding of the concept of autonomy and offers a clear picture of the issues involved.
