This book is written by scholars from various European countries, all members of the European Interprofessio...

The author has studied the meaning of ‘Purpose’ in organizations and what constitutes it. Starting from the most eye-catching actors - the employee, the leader or the organization itself - it covers in depth the different angles. The question is whether this can only be an individual matter valid for the employees, or perhaps that this ‘purpose’ is dominated by the influence of the leader of the organization. And also, how the organization itself is influenced or influences.

The system of international criminal justice was established in response to gross human rights violations committed during World War II. Despite its development over the past seven decades, challenges and critiques remain unresolved or have subsequently emerged, particularly in the context of the International Criminal Court (ICC).

When fellow countrymen win a medal at an international sports event the whole spectrum of positive and negative emotions is expressed, by athletes, spectators, even by the strongest sports-critics and sports-indifferent people. There are winners and losers, fans for and against, sadness and disillusionment, abuse and injustice, grief and pain but there is also fair play, empathy, integrity, joy and optimism. In this essay, I write about abuses, dangers and challenges in sport, what causes the...

Artificial Intelligence systems are used today in several parts of the world to support the administration of criminal justice. The most widespread example concerns “predictive policing”, which aims at foretelling crime before it happens and improving its detection.

This book is cramped with familiar school and classroom situations, but despite the title it doesn't offer the teacher or therapist ready-made solutions. And neither does the teacher or therapist in his solution-focused work at school. They let the pupils discover their own solutions. Solution-focused interventions invite you to look at problems differently and can elicit solution-focused reactions.

The Korzybski-institute in Bruges has developed the procedure of solution-focused work describe...

Criminal law occupies a central role in the “prism” of human rights, given the relevant impact of trial and punishment on the personal sphere of individuals, which may be instrumentalised in the name of security claims for political purposes. It is no coincidence that during the Age of Enlightenment the main fundamental guarantees of criminal law were enshrined in human rights declarations, with an approach now widely accepted at an international level. In fact, the “dialogue” between...
