2021
This study will address the two aspects of rights linked to information, the right to information and the right to information, to end with the formulation of some conclusions that, distancing themselves from a mere summary, seek to encourage doctrinal and political debate on assumptions that, being peacefully settled, should be reformulated in light of the repeated crisis of transparency.

Compatibility of Latvian non-conviction-based confiscation with Convention on Human Rights
2022
Traditional “repressive” criminal law is no longer sufficient to deal with the new threats posed by the global risk and information society. New forms of combatting international organised crime, drug trafficking and other serious crimes have emerged to target the most crucial aspect of incitive of the criminals – their money. Deprivation of property illegally obtained is an essential tool for crimes and money laundering. It led to the question of whether it is by human rights to confiscate the proceeds of crime, detected merely, e.g., in the form of suspects’ unexplained wealth, under a concept of unjust enrichment and re-establishment of the situation before a crime, and to do so without …
The presumption of innocence in the EU competition law
2022
This Bachelor thesis aims to analyse the application of the presumption of innocence in the EU competition law, more precisely in the anti-cartel proceedings. In addition, this thesis will provide the analysis of the categorisation of the competition law.

This paper's primary objective is to identify the procedural rights of cartel members, analyse their implementation, and emphasise any pote…

As such, this paper inspects and compares the current legal approaches that are used in certain common law and civil law jurisdictions to determine individuals’ rights over their bodies, and considers the bundle of rights concept and the law of equity as possible solutions to the ethical and equitable deficiencies observed in certain jurisdic…

El treball social davanta la crisis
2010
The economic crisis is a time when the social sector professional has to live up to expectations by informing, raising awareness, helping with self-organization and mobilisation from our privileged position as intermediaries with the people, honouring our ethical obligation to fight for the social rights of the underprivileged and defending them. One cannot understand a social worker still managing to remain faithful to their ethical principles while not participating in denunciation and campaigning groups and not having motives for getting involved in the denunciation protests and mobilizations taking place all over the land today.
