Article 50 does allow Britain to negotiate a transitional period

The PM intends to negotiate a transitional period after March 2019, during which people, businesses and services would have time to adapt to Brexit while the current regulatory framework is maintained. But it is still unclear how Britain will do this. Federico Ortino and Holger Hestermeyer (King’s College London) argue that Article 50 allows the UK to postpone the beginning of the withdrawal agreement until a later date – perhaps March 2021. This would give the government valuable time to implement Brexit

Personal Jurisdiction for Internet Torts: Towards an International Solution

As an introduction to the issue of Internet tort jurisdiction, Part I will recount the Yahoo! case, the most divisive case on the issue recently. Parts II and III will give an overview of the current law on Internet tort jurisdiction in two different legal systems: the United States and Germany. They will show that several recent cases in both countries have applied targeting approaches as advocated by Michael Geist and Rufus Pichler. However, insecurity remains and jurisprudence is far from consistent. Part IV will argue that insecurity about Internet jurisdiction could be reduced significantly if countries were to commit themselves in an international convention to abide by a targeting approach along with guidelines for relevant criteria. Such an international law approach would limit the risk for website hosts of being dragged into court anywhere in the world. Unfortunately, an opportunity to pursue such a regime during the negotiations at the Hague Convention on Jurisdiction and Foreign Judgements in Civil and Commercial Matters ( Judgements Project ) has been lost with the collapse of those negotiation

Towards a UK Trade Policy Post-Brexit:The Beginning of a Complex Journey

Trade has had a stunning return to the spotlight since the results of the Brexit referendum were announced. While it is much too early to speak of failure or success of the UK's trade policy, we allege that the current debate shows a lack of understanding of modern international trade law and policy. This in turn leads to a lack of appreciation of the tasks ahead for the UK. The limited aim of this short article is to point out the scope of some of the key challenges and the complexities that the UK will face on the road towards a post-Brexit trade policy. We consider a proper appreciation of these complexities to be vital for a transparent, fair and inclusive formulation of the UK's trade policies, which will determine not only the UK's economic fate, but also the UK's laws and many of its domestic policies for decades to come

On Brexit, transition, customs partnership and max fac - a drama in four acts

The Brexit process has had its share of surprising twists and turns. But even seasoned observers were taken by surprise recently when the Sun reported that "Brexiteers urge Theresa May to extend the transition period". Experts have long agreed that the transition period currently provided for in the Withdrawal Agreement is unlikely to be long enough to successfully negotiate a broad Free ...Trade Agreement (read Association Agreement) between the UK and the EU. So is this news evidence that rationality is returning to the Brexit debate? Sadly, no, writes Holger Hestermeyer (King’s College London). Rather, we are witnessing a surreal play – a drama in four acts

Tra il dire e il non dire

Lo studio muove dalla descrizione della zona d’ombra compresa tra il detto e il non detto, ossia dallo spazio occupato dall’implicito in un corpus di lettere della Missione Cattolica Italiana di Mannheim, nella Germania meridionale. In contrasto con lo stile ‘semplice’, che si propone di coinvolgere il destinatario, è l’analisi del significato implicito che rivela squarci di quotidianità, problemi della comunità, e la percezione dell’identità della Missione nel contesto socio-culturale tedesco. La descrizione delle strategie comunicative impiegate nelle lettere testimonia inoltre la diffusione, anche nella lingua della predicazione, di una nuova forma di semplicità linguistica che, superato il conflitto fra italiano e dialetto, fa dell’espressività il proprio mezzo stilistico privilegiato, senza distinzione tra oralità e scrittura

Il racconto della quotidianità nella genesi del tempo.

Nel diario al centro del saggio la registrazione del quotidiano si estende per un arco di tempo di trenta anni, dal 1959 al 1989. La scrittura registra in modo particolare la “normalità” della quotidianità, piuttosto che gli eventi eccezionali, introducendo il lettore in un lungo spaccato di vita dello scrivente. Nel descrivere ed analizzare questo testo il saggio parte dal dato linguistico, mostrando come il linguaggio, insieme ai contenuti espressi, si faccia testimone di un periodo storico e di un programma (oltre che di una storia) di vita allo stesso tempo. La tesi di fondo è che in un diario giornaliero la scrittura non sia soltanto uno strumento di registrazione, ma anche di ri-costruzione dell’esperienza
