Abstract

De Europese Unie is een uniek experiment in de geschiedenis van de internationale betrekkingen en een curiosum in het publiek recht. Ontstaan uit het Internationaal Recht is 'Europa' een proefveld bij uitstek geworden van constitutioneel denken. De geloofsbrieven die de Unie kan voorleggen, zijn indrukwekkend: de Europese integratie is een geslaagd vredesproject en de impact van de interne markt op de productie en de export van Europese landen is immens. Toch verkeert de Europese Unie in een crisis. Na tien jaar van intens onderhandelen, had men gehoopt dat het Verdrag van Lissabon de vereiste institutionele stabiliteit en duidelijkheid zou geven aan een Europa van 27 lidstaten - straks wellicht 30 en meer - in een geglobaliseerde wereld. Dit blijkt voorlopig niet het geval te zijn. Intussen is de Europese Unie en meer bepaald de Eurozone ook in een slepende economische crisis beland, waarop vooralsnog geen adequaat antwoord is gegeven. En ook het Gemeenschappelijk Buitenlands Beleid is weinig overtuigend of zelfs geloofwaardig. Dit alles maakt minstens duidelijk dat het integratieproces nog lang niet af is. Dit handboek wil een inzicht geven in de opbouw van de Europese Unie als politiek project en in haar zoektocht naar een constitutioneel model, in de werking van haar instellingen, het verloop van de besluitvorming, de rol van het Hof bij de uitwerking van het Europees recht en in de financiering van de Unie. De bedoeling ervan is de lezer beter in staat stellen de actuele ontwikkelingen in Europa te volgen en te begrijpen.Bron : http://www.acco.be

Abstract

This volume contains articles from leading analysts and researchers on sustainable transportation, who provide critical reflections on how automobile-related climate policies have evolved up to now in Europe and around the world, in view of the widely recognized need to substantially curb global emissions of greenhouse gases in the coming decades. Authors describe the policies which have been most effective, outline their economic and social implications, present success stories while critically reviewing less successful examples, and suggest strategies to decarbonize passenger transportation on a global scale.   This book is a treasure chest of insights and nuggets about the future of the car. It brings together many of the world's leading thinkers and analysts to explain how we might navigate toward a secure, low-carbon future. This is a must-read for anyone concerned about the world's precarious dependence on petroleum-guzzling cars.  Daniel Sperling, Professor and Director, Institute of Transportation Studies, University of California, Davis, USA   This impressive book proposes a wide range of practical steps that can be taken now to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transport. It shows how efforts by international bodies, national governments and local communities are all needed to avoid dangerous changes to our planet's climate. The thorough policy analysis and the many good practice examples provide a strong evidence base for political action now.  Jack Short, Secretary-General of the International Transport Forum, Paris, France   Cars and Carbon is essential reading for the world's transportation community. Radically reducing greenhouse gas emissions from automobiles may be the greatest challenge global society faces as it strives to avoid dangerous climate change while extending the benefits of personal mobility. In Cars and Carbon, a superlative group of international experts tackle the problem in its full complexity and offer practical, meaningful solutions.  David L. Greene, Corporate Fellow, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, TN, USA   Any interested researcher, environmental policy student or analyst will find this book very useful in understanding our future climate policy priorities in the transport sector. Rarely does a book offer such deep policy insights; I hope that policymakers study every chapter in detail.            Stavros Dimas, Former European Commissioner for the Environment

Abstract

EU External Relations Law and Policy in the Post-Lisbon Era is a collection of works which considers the many different facets of the EU’s increasingly important engagement with the world beyond its borders. The Treaty of Lisbon, which came into effect in December 2009, made significant changes to the powers and competences endowed on the EU institutions. The contributions to this collection consider both the direct and indirect impact of the Treaty on the contemporary state of EU external relations. The authors are drawn from legal, political science and international relations disciplines and their contributions consider innovations or changes brought about by the Treaty itself, including the establishment of the European External Action Service, the roles of the High Representative and President, the collapse of the ‘pillar’ structure and new competences in areas such as defence and foreign investment. Other chapters cover developments which reflect the latest incremental changes upon which the post-Lisbon Treaty arrangements have some bearing, including climate change, transatlantic and neighbourhood relations and the external dimension of ‘internal’ security.  The views, considerations and recommendations presented in this book are of particular interest to the large community of academics and policy makers working in the field of EU external relations law and foreign policy, as well as in European studies more generally. Being one of the first published works considering the changes brought about by the Treaty of Lisbon it offers a solid basis for policy development and will further the interdisciplinary debate on all levels within the EU.  Dr. Paul James Cardwell is a Senior Lecturer and the Deputy Director of the Sheffield Centre for International and European Law (SCIEL) at the School of Law, University of Sheffield, United Kingdom.

Abstract

Industrie en innovatie zijn onmisbaar in tijden van crisis. De huidige, sociaal-economische situatie in Vlaanderen heeft duidelijk gemaakt dat Europese beleidskeuzes onmiskenbaar een impact hebben op nationaal en regionaal niveau. Ook de Vlaamse beleidsmakers kunnen niet om Europa heen. Europees beleid wordt meer en meer binnenlands beleid. En omgekeerd. Met het Pact 2020 en Vlaanderen in Actie wordt de Europa 2020-strategie en haar industriele dimensie - zelfs vooraleer die binnen de EU werd goedgekeurd - in een regionale langetermijnstrategie gegoten en uitgevoerd. Vlaanderen kan, als innovatieve open economie in het logistieke hart van Europa, het voortouw nemen om de vernieuwende, geintegreerde Europese industriepolitiek naar een hoger niveau te tillen en zichzelf hiermee op de Europese en mondiale kaart te plaatsen.

Abstract

Nataliya Esakova performs an analysis of the interdependencies and the nature of cooperation between energy producing, consuming and transit countries focusing on the gas sector. For the analysis the theoretical framework of the interdependence theory by Robert O. Keohane and Joseph S. Nye and the international regime theory are applied to the recent developments within the gas relationship between the European Union and Russia in the last decade. The objective of the analysis is to determine, whether a fundamental regime change in terms of international regime theory is taking place, and, if so, which regime change explanation model in terms of interdependence theory is likely to apply.
