Hierarchy of norms, iura novit curia and no need to plea for indirect review of administrative action: The strictly German legal point of view
No full textThe constitutions of the Lander contain similar provisions for the issue of Rechtsverordnun-gen based on Land legal acts. There are only a few rules on the procedure of the adoption of Rechtsverordnungen in the Grundgesetz and the land constitutions. The aim is to enable social groups to settle, under their own responsibility, the matters that concern them. The power to enact Satzungen is, thus, directly linked to the idea of self-government, which ex-plains the importance of Satzungen at local level. The principle of subsidiarity of the constitu-tional complaint as a criterion which may lead to the inadmissibility of a constitutional com-plaint directly challenging a legislative act also has an impact on the interpretation of proce-dural law applicable to regular courts. It has already been said that the BVerfG gives a clear priority to constitutional complaints challenging a judicial decision which leads to an indirect constitutional review of a legal act on which the decision is based via Article 100(1) GG

Software als Beweiswerkzeug
No full textDiese Arbeit wurde im März 2021 als Dissertation bei der Deutschen Universität für Ver-waltungswissenschaften Speyer eingereicht und im September 2022 verteidigt. Inhalt und Nachweise befinden sich bis auf die Aktualisierung der Normen auf das TKG n.F. auf dem Stand der Abgabe im März 2021.
Die Dissertation untersucht, wie Tatsachengerichte in den großen Prozessordnungen damit umgehen, wenn sie nicht nachvollziehbare Softwareauswertungen in der Beweisaufnahme würdigen müssen. Dabei untersucht die Arbeit ausführlich die bereits zu Software als Be-weiswerkzeug ergangene Rechtsprechung. Das Werk arbeitet die Einzelheiten der Recht-sprechung heraus und würdigt diese kritisch und mit Blick auf die zu erwartende Zunahme der Rolle von Software im Beweisrecht. Dabei zeigt die Untersuchung auf, dass Gerichte häufig die Ergebnisse von Software (zu) unkritisch übernehmen. Insbesondere ein Ausblick auf die Rolle von moderner Software im Bereich der Sachverhaltsfeststellung führt daher zu ersten Ansätzen dazu, wie die Bildung einer kritischen Dogmatik zu dieser Frage aussehen könnte

Pandemic and Administrative EU Soft Law: Persistent Challenges to the Rule of Law in the EU and Possible Solutions
No full textThis article takes the proliferation of EU soft law instruments in the management of the COVID-19 pandemic as an opportunity to analyse their effects and challenges to democracy and rule of law in the EU posed by the use of EU soft law in the implementation of EU law. A proposal will be made for a general legal framework on the adoption of administrative EU soft law in order to address them. Enhancing the legitimacy of EU governance requires a general legal framework that introduces minimum procedural, transparency and participa-tory safeguards and foresees looser rules for urgent soft measures. The article thus makes an original contribution by reconsidering the debate about EU soft law in the context of COVID-19 soft law with a view to its salience for domestic implementation of EU law and by developing core elements of a general legal framework
Zur Zukunft Europas: Plädoyer für eine Vertragsreform
No full textDurch die Konferenz zur Zukunft Europas hat die Debatte um eine Reform des EU-Primär-rechts neue Fahrt aufgenommen. Eine Vertragsreform tut not, im Interesse effektiverer, aber auch demokratischerer Beschlussfassung, erweiterter Kompetenzen und konsentierter Ver-bundgrundlagen zur Bewältigung der zahlreichen äußeren und inneren Herausforderungen
Local responses to European Integration: patterns of Europe-related activities of German local governments
No full textEuropeanisation situates local governments in a constantly changing environment, bringing challenges, opportunities, and constraints. These circumstances raise the question, how
local authorities adapt to the process of European integration, face its challenges, and use
its diverse opportunity structures. The article explores four dimensions, through which Europeanisation hits the ground of local government: downloading, uploading, dissemi-nation, and horizontal networking. It examines the distribution of different types of Europe-related activities at the local level using data from a survey sent to all 396 independent cities, towns, and municipalities in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia. Our empirical analysis provides an overview of the most and least frequent Europe-related activities within the different types of local authorities. The findings of our multivariate analysis shows that next to the direct affectedness by Europeanisation, the municipalities’ capacities in terms of financial and institutional resources have a major influence on their efforts towards Europe
Cultural tightness-looseness and national innovativeness: Impacts of tolerance and diversity of opinion
No full textThe links between innovativeness as a driver of economic performance, and the determi-nants of innovativeness have been investigated by management scholars and economists
for decades, focusing mostly on “hard factors” as investment in research and development, or education. Focusing on a relatively neglected, but in times of globalization even more important aspect, the influence of cultural characteristics on innovativeness, we apply different econometric models to test for links between cultural tightness and looseness on the one hand, and national innovativeness on the other hand. We find that cultural tightness — in the sense of homogenous and intolerant societies — has a negative link to national innovativeness, while cultural looseness — in the sense of tolerant and diverse societies — displays a positive link to national innovativeness
