Paperback. Condizione: New. Do independent boards of appeal set up in some EU agencies and the European Ombudsman compensate for the shortcomings of EU Courts? This book examines the operation of EU judicial and extra-judicial review mechanisms. It confronts the formal legal rules with evolving practices, relying on rich statistical data and internal documents. It covers detailed institutional arrangements, the standard of review, the types of cases and litigants, and the activity of the parties in the process. It makes visible the diverse but complementary ways in which the mechanisms enhance the authority of EU legal acts and processes. It also reveals that scarce resources and imprecise rules restrict the scope of review and hinder independent empirical investigations. Finally, it casts light on how a differentiated system of judicial and extra-judicial review can accommodate various kinds of technical and political discretion exercised by EU institutions and bodies.…

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The novel The Podolian Girl, Raised in a State of Nature, Describes Her Life and Events belongs to the genre of the conte philosophique (philosophical tale or philosophical story), a form perfected earlier in the 18th century by writers such as Voltaire, where tales used exotic or estranged protagonists to cast a critical eye on European society. It is a narrative form designed to illustrate, explore, or critique philosophical, social, or political ideas through fiction.Much like Imirce, the story written by Henri-Joseph Du Laurens on which The Podolian Girl is heavily based, questions the Enlightenment's confidence in reason and progress at a deep and philosophical level. It is the story of the upbringing of the protagonist in her own words, whose name, Marysia, is only revealed close to the end of the story. Her years spent outside of society until her her early adulthood strips her of preconceptions, but it also deprives her of language, culture, and history. Krajewski, like Du Laurens in Imirce, stages a tension between the assumed purity of nature and the necessity of social formation.The major question to be answered, that is, is society merely corrupting, or is it also an essential aspect of humanity, is examined by presenting a protagonist who is at once innocent and radically unprepared for the introduction of society. It suggests that while organized religion and society in general may pervert reason, complete isolation is not a viable ideal either. The Count's experiment becomes a subtle satire of utopian schemes that presume human nature can be engineered into perfection.In this respect, The Podolian Girl engages implicitly with other contemporaneous works such as Emile, ou De l'education byJean-Jacques Roussesau, which argued that proper education should preserve the child's innate goodness against societal corruption.Marysia's viewpoints do not merely confirm an asumed natural virtue. They reveals the fragility of all social constructions, sacred or secular.To read The Podolian Girl today is to encounter a work that is at once playful and polemical, speculative and scandalous. Its enduring interest lies not only in its audacity but in its structural insight. By imagining a consciousness unformed by society, Krajewski compels readers to confront the contingency of their own beliefs in societal norms. In doing so, he transforms the feral-child narrative into a powerful instrument of Enlightenment skepticism. It is a skepticism that questions whether what passes for sacred truth is anything more than habit sanctified by society and time. A girl kept isolated from society until adulthood finds the world and society full of surprises and contradictions. Adapting to her situation, she eventually has a family, raising her children in a manner different from the societal norm. This item is printed on demand.
