This book examines liability for environmental harm in Antarctic, deep seabed, and high seas commons areas, highlighting a unique set of legal questions: Who has standing to claim environmental harms in global commons ecosystems? How should questions of causation and liability be addressed where harm arises from a variety of activities by state and non-state actors? What kinds of harm should be compensable in global commons ecosystems, which are remote and characterized by high levels of scientific uncertainty? How can practical concerns such as ensuring adequate funds for compensation be resolved? This book provides the first in-depth examination and evaluation of current rules and possible avenues for future legal developments in this area of increasing importance for states, international organizations, commercial actors, and legal and governance scholars. This title is part of the Flip it Open Programme and may also be available Open Access. Check our website Cambridge Core for details.

Free Download Karner, "Civil Liability for Artificial Intelligence and Software "
English | ISBN: 3110775344 | 2022 | 230 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Initiated by the European Commission, the first study published in this volume analyses the largely unresolved question as to how damage caused by artificial intelligence (AI) systems is allocated by the rules of tortious liability currently in force in the Member States of the European Union and in the United States, to examine whether – and if so, to what extent – national tort law regimes differ in that respect, and to identify possible gaps in the protection of injured parties. The second study offers guiding principles for safety and liability with regard to software, testing how the existing acquis needs to be adjusted in order to adequately cope with the risks posed by software and AI. The annex contains the final report of the New Technologies Formation of the Expert Group on Liability and New Technologies, assessing the extent to which existing liability schemes are adapted to the emerging market realities following the development of new digital technologies.

As bankers incorporate more and more complicated and precise calculations and models, a solely mathematical approach will fail to confirm the viability of their business. This book explains how to combine ALM concepts with the emotional intelligence of managers in order to maintain the financial health of a bank, and quickly react to external environment challenges and banks’ microclimate changes.

The book examines the attempts by the European Union to harmonise in the field of company law. In particular, it explores and offers a critical assessment of the proposal from the European Commission for a European single-member company (‘SUP’). Key weakness are identified, including the challenges with the online founding in uncertain proof of identity and the deficient protection of creditors, which conflicts with existing insolvency law, particularly from the German perspective. Other dangers identified include the risk of use of the SEA as an instrument of participation avoidance. In addition, it shows that the SUP is largely unsuitable for control of the right of instruction of the sole shareholder and managing director liability. Having set out the areas where the proposal is currently not fit for purpose, the author makes a number of suggestions on how it might be approved.
