EU Law and National Constitutions The Constitutional Dynamics of Multi-Level Governance

This book provides an in-depth guide to researchers and practitioners who are interested in analysing the evolution of EU law from a national and comparative constitutional law perspective. The volume deals with questions of how EU member states’ constitutional systems including the subnational tier interact with the supranational level. It maps the evolution over time of constitutional strategies in the face of multi-level governance and individual contextual factors on an empirical basis. The volume comprises 12 national reports written by leading experts in constitutional and EU law and in political science. The countries discussed include the six founding member states together with a selection of member states in which a clear-cut evolution in the national constitutional approach towards the EU can be observed. These comprise the Czech Republic Denmark Hungary Poland Portugal and the United Kingdom. The latter is included as an “extreme” case in which the change in constitutional strategy over time has resulted in withdrawing from the Union altogether. Taken together the book assembles the building blocks of an explanatory theory of constitutional strategies in the face of multi-level governance. The volume will be of interest to students and researchers in comparative constitutional law political science and multidisciplinary EU studies. It will also be a valuable resource for policy-makers. | EU Law and National Constitutions The Constitutional Dynamics of Multi-Level Governance

Psychoanalytic Defense Mechanisms in Cognitive Multi-Agent Systems

Psychoanalytic Defense Mechanisms in Cognitive Multi-Agent Systems

Human cognitive processes and defense mechanisms as described in psychoanalysis bring about new notions and paradigms for artificial intelligence systems. One key reason is that the human cognitive processes and defense mechanisms in question can accomplish conflict detection functionalities filter functionalities and other system stabilizing tasks within artificial intelligence systems. Yet artificial cognitive architectures lack the capability to analyze complex situations as well as the universal competencies needed to orientate themselves in complex environments in various domains. Psychoanalytic Defense Mechanisms in Cognitive Multi-Agent Systems addresses this dilemma by exploring how to describe model and implement psychoanalytic defense mechanisms in the course of a project that provides a functional model of the human mind. With discussions focusing on the development of a mathematical description for the implementation of conflict detection the activation and selection of defense mechanisms and the processing of defense mechanisms Psychoanalytic Defense Mechanisms in Cognitive Multi-Agent Systems describes the decisive points for the application of defense mechanisms in artificial intelligence. Formulae that treat defense mechanisms as transformations are also provided. Interdisciplinary cooperation between the scientific fields of psychoanalysis and artificial intelligence is highlighted as the foundation of new research findings throughout the book. Innovative and exciting this book will be of great interest to academics researchers and postgraduates in the fields of cognitive science artificial intelligence and psychoanalysis.

International Business Multi-Nationals and the Nationality of the Company

International Business Multi-Nationals and the Nationality of the Company

This book discusses challenges that arise for multinational companies from not having a single ‘nationality’ and being exposed to a variety of simultaneous country-specific legally and culturally constructed nationalities at home and abroad. Brexit America First campaigns Russia’s war against Ukraine or the ever-tenser relationship between China and the US have led to raising concerns about foreign direct investments. Multinational companies are pressured to withdraw from countries and reorganise global value chains. The long-held confidence that ‘nationality’ does not matter for multinational companies in the globalised economy has dwindled. Today companies doing business abroad are exposed to implications of their ‘nationality’ because governments and customers react upon the ‘nationality’ of a firm or a product as they did in the 20th century. The chapters in this book address many international business domains covering political risk liability of foreignness cultural distance headquarters change and tax planning. They use different methodological approaches to analyse European and US-based MNEs in Europe Africa and South-East Asia from 1900 to 1980. The book argues that ‘nationality’ is not a ghost from the past in international business it is a topic that requires substantial consideration. The chapters in this book were originally published in the journal Business History. | International Business Multi-Nationals and the Nationality of the Company
