Kierkegaard's Writings, IX, Volume 9: Writing Sampler
by Søren Kierkegaard Todd W. NicholPrefaces was the last of four books by Søren Kierkegaard to appear within two weeks in June 1844. Three Upbuilding Discourses and Philosophical Fragments were published first, followed by The Concept of Anxiety and its companion--published on the same day--the comically ironic Prefaces. Presented as a set of prefaces without a book to follow, this work is a satire on literary life in nineteenth-century Copenhagen, a lampoon of Danish Hegelianism, and a prefiguring of Kierkegaard's final collision with Danish Christendom. Shortly after publishing Prefaces, Kierkegaard began to prepare Writing Sampler as a sequel. Writing Sampler considers the same themes taken up in Prefaces but in yet a more ironical and satirical vein. Although Writing Sampler remained unpublished during his lifetime, it is presented here as Kierkegaard originally envisioned it, in the company of Prefaces.

Kierkegaard's Writings, X, Volume 10: Three Discourses on Imagined Occasions
by Søren Kierkegaard Edna H. Hong Howard V. HongThree Discourses on Imagined Occasions was the last of seven works signed by Kierkegaard and published simultaneously with an anonymously authored companion piece. Imagined Occasions both complements and stands in contrast to Kierkegaard's pseudonymously published Stages on Life's Way. The two volumes not only have a chronological relation but treat some of the same distinct themes. The first of the three discourses, "On the Occasion of a Confession," centers on stillness, wonder, and one's search for God--in contrast to the speechmaking on erotic love in "In Vino Veritas," part one of Stages. The second discourse, "On the Occasion of a Wedding," complements the second part of Stages, in which Judge William delivers a panegyric on marriage. The third discourse, "At a Graveside," sharpens the ethical and religious earnestness implicit in Stages's "'Guilty'/'Not Guilty'" and completes this collection.

Kierkegaard's Writings, XVII, Volume 17: The Crisis and a Crisis in the Life of an Actress.
by Søren Kierkegaard Howard V. Hong Edna H. HongFirst published in 1848, Christian Discourses is a quartet of pieces written and arranged in contrasting styles. Parts One and Three, "The Cares of the Pagans" and "Thoughts That Wound from Behind--for Upbuilding," serve as a polemical overture to Kierkegaard's collision with the established order of Christendom. Yet Parts Two and Four, "Joyful Notes in the Strife of Suffering" and "Discourses at the Communion on Fridays," are reassuring affirmations of the joy and blessedness of Christian life in a world of adversity and suffering. Written in ordinary language, the work combines simplicity and inwardness with reflection and presents crucial Christian concepts and presuppositions with unusual clarity. Kierkegaard continued in the pattern that he began with his first pseudonymous esthetic work, Either/Or, by pairing Christian Discourses with The Crisis, an unsigned esthetic essay on contemporary Danish actress Joanne Luise Heiberg.

Kierkegaard's Writings, XVIII, Volume 18: Without Authority
by Søren Kierkegaard Howard V. Hong Edna H. Hong"Without authority," a phrase Kierkegaard repeatedly applied to himself and his writings, is an appropriate title for this volume of five short works that in various ways deal with the concept and practice of authority. The Lily in the Field and the Bird of the Air contemplates the teaching authority of these creatures based on three different passages in the Gospels. The first of Two Ethical-Religious Essays mediates on the ethics of Jesus' martyrdom; the second contrasts the authority of the genius with that of the apostle. The remaining works--Three Discourses at the Communion on Fridays (1849), An Upbuilding Discourse (1850), and Two Discourses at the Communion on Fridays (1851)--are meditations on sin, forgiveness, and the power of love.

Kierkegaard's Writings, XXIII, Volume 23: "The Moment" and Late Writings
by Søren Kierkegaard Howard V. Hong Edna H. HongKierkegaard, a poet of ideals and practitioner of the indirect method, also had a direct and polemical side. He revealed this in several writings throughout his career, culminating in The Moment, his attack against the established ecclesiastical order. Kierkegaard was moved to criticize the church by his differences with Bishop Mynster, Primate of the Church of Denmark. Although Mynster saw in Kierkegaard a complement to himself and his outlook, Kierkegaard challenged Mynster to acknowledge the emptying and estheticizing of Christianity that had occurred in modern Christendom. For three years Kierkegaard was silent, waiting. When Mynster died, he was memorialized as "an authentic truth-witness" in the "holy chain of truth-witnesses that stretches through the ages from the days of the apostles." This struck Kierkegaard as blasphemous and inspired him to write a series of articles in Fædrelandet, which he followed with ten numbers of the pamphlet The Moment. This volume includes the articles from Fædrelandet, all numbers of The Moment, and several other late pieces of Kierkegaard's writing.

Kierkegaard's Writings, XXIV, Volume 24: The Book on Adler
by Søren Kierkegaard Howard V. Hong Edna H. HongKierkegaard was driven to write The Book on Adler after news spread that a Danish pastor, Adolph P. Adler, claimed to have experienced a revelation in which Christ dictated a new doctrine. Like many others, Kierkegaard was intrigued by Adler--but for different reasons than most. Over the eight years during which Kierkegaard worked on the manuscript, the phenomenon of Adler became a concern secondary to the larger question of authority. Kierkegaard revised the manuscript many times, and published a segment of it as "The Difference between a Genius and an Apostle" in Two Ethical-Religious Essays, but did not publish the work as a whole before his death. The latest integral version of The Book on Adler is included here, along with excerpts from the earlier drafts and a sampling of writing by Adler himself.

Kierkegaard's Writings, XXV, Volume 25: Letters and Documents
by Søren Kierkegaard Henrik RosenmeierThis volume provides the first English translation of all the known correspondence to and from Søren Kierkegaard, including a number of his letters in draft form and papers pertaining to his life and death. These fascinating documents offer new access to the character and lifework of the gifted philosopher, theologian, and psychologist. Kierkegaard speaks often and openly about his desire to correspond, and the resulting desire to write for a greater audience. He consciously recognizes letter-writing as an opportunity to practice composition. Unlike most correspondence, Kierkegaard's letters expressly "do not require a reply"--he insists on this as a principle, while he clearly and earnestly yearns for a response to his efforts. Among his other principles are purposefulness, directness, and the equality of a letter to a visit with a friend (Kierkegaard preferred the former to the latter). Perhaps more than anything else in print, Kierkegaard's Letters and Documents reveal his love affair with the written word.

Killing in a Gray Area between Humanitarian Law and Human Rights: How Can the National Police of Colombia Overcome the Uncertainty of Which Branch of International Law to Apply? (Schriftenreihe der Juristischen Fakultät der Europa-Universität Viadrina Frankfurt (Oder))
by Jan RömerArmed forces can be confronted with the problem of correctly classifying a targeted group as one that is or is not party to an armed conflict. In particular, this happens in a context of a high level of violence where a non-international armed conflict is (likely) occurring at the same time, such as in Iraq, Afghanistan, Brazil or Mexico. The difficulty of qualifying the targeted group leads to a legal uncertainty in which it is unclear whether an operation is governed by international humanitarian law or the international law of human rights. The problem is of particular interest when lethal force is resorted to, as killing might be illegal under one of the two branches. The book attempts to provide guidance on how this uncertainty can be overcome. In order to do so, the requirements to kill under IHL and human rights law are analyzed and compared, as well as assessed in concrete operations of the National Police of Colombia who face this problem on a regular basis.

Knowledge as Property: Issues in the Moral Grounding of Intellectual Property Rights
by Rajshree ChandraIntellectual Property Rights (IPRs)—the idea of knowledge as property—and its role in human society is being increasingly discussed across nations and borders. Involving legal, political, cultural, and ethical issues, debates on IPRs continue to be complex and wide-ranging. This book analyses the basic assumptions and premises of the notion of intellectual property as a right. It goes on to show how IPRs prevent those who do not own it from accessing and exercising their own diverse rights. Thus, in a way, IPRs violate the very idea of individual autonomy on which it bases its claims. Highlighting the inherent propensity of IPRs to conflict with'other rights of other peoples' this volume examines three important rights: health rights, indigenous peoples' knowledge rights, and farmers' rights. Do IPRs derive any legitimacy from its ability to support or conjoin with these rights? Do IPRs fit within a framework of rights, which unites welfare, well being, and equal access to advantage and autonomy? These are questions which arise out of the varied contestations that have emerged in the face of IPRs and which have been probed in this book. The analyses also moves beyond to explore some of the broader challenges that liberal theory of rights faces from collective claims to knowledge rights and practices.
Kommentar zum Arzneimittelgesetz (AMG)
by Rudolf Ratzel Kerstin Anker Brigitte Tag Adem KoyuncuDer Kommentar befindet sich nunmehr auf dem (fragilen) Stand der AMG-Novelle 2009.

Kommentar zum Medizinproduktegesetz (MPG)
by Erwin Deutsch Hans-Dieter Lippert Rudolf Ratzel Brigitte TagDas Medizinproduktegesetz (MPG) ist keine deutsche Erfindung. Es entstand als Reaktion des deutschen Gesetzgebers auf europarechtliche Vorschriften, die vor allem der Bildung eines einheitlichen Markts für Medizinprodukte dienen sollen. Das Werk berücksichtigt die seit dem Erscheinen der ersten Auflage eingetretenen Änderungen bis hin zum Gesetz zur Änderung medizinprodukterechtlicher Vorschriften. Da inzwischen auch das Heilmittelwerbegesetz auf Medizinprodukte Anwendung findet, wurde es mit einer kurzen Kommentierung ebenfalls aufgenommen.

WeberDas UN-Kaufrecht (engl.: United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, CISG) ist maßgeblich für den internationalen Warenkauf. Seit dem Erscheinen der 1.

Kostendruck und Standard: Zu den Auswirkungen finanzieller Zwänge auf den Standard sozialversicherungsrechtlicher Leistungen und den haftungsrechtlichen Behandlungsstandard (Kölner Schriften zum Medizinrecht #5)
by Johannes ArnadeDas Gesundheitswesen leidet an Ressourcenknappheit, die Diskrepanz zwischen dem medizinisch Machbaren und dem tatsächlich Finanzierbaren wächst. Der Band behandelt zwei der zentralen rechtlichen Problemfelder, die sich daraus ergeben: die Möglichkeiten der Rationierung medizinischer Leistungen sowie die Konfliktlinien zwischen Arzthaftungs- und Sozialversicherungsrecht. Ziel der Studie ist es, einen verfassungskonformen Ansatz für die Zuteilung knapper Ressourcen zu entwickeln und eine Harmonisierung der verschiedenen Teildisziplinen zu erreichen.
Kriegsverbrechen im nationalen und internationalen Recht: Unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des Bestimmtheitsgrundsatzes (Beiträge zum ausländischen öffentlichen Recht und Völkerrecht #216)
by Tobias DargeDie durch das Römische Statut des Internationalen Strafgerichtshofes angestoßenen Entwicklungen im Völkerstrafrecht führen dazu, dass auch auf der nationalen Ebene Rechtsgrundlagen zur Verfolgung von Verbrechen gegen das Völkerrecht notwendig werden. Das neue deutsche Völkerstrafgesetzbuch steht dabei vor der Herausforderung, einerseits das geltende Völkerstrafrecht in nationales Recht zu transponieren, sich dabei aber andererseits im vorgegebenen Rahmen des Grundgesetzes zu halten, namentlich was die Einhaltung des Bestimmtheitsgrundsatzes betrifft. Der Autor geht der Frage nach, wie dieser Balanceakt im besonders komplexen Recht der Kriegsverbrechen gelungen ist. Er entwickelt Auslegungsgrundsätze und wendet diese auf als problematisch erkannte Tatbestände an.
