Jana Braksiek Book order (chronological)

Die Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit Wirkungen eines US-amerikanischen Urteils gegenüber Dritten und einer möglichen Anerkennung dieser Wirkungen in Deutschland. Sie befasst sich zunächst mit der grundsätzlichen Anerkennungsfähigkeit eines US-amerikanischen Urteils. Es folgt eine Analyse der Wirkungen gegenüber Dritten sowie deren Anerkennung. Spätestens seit den Diskussionen der 1980er Jahre um einen "Justizkonflikt" herrscht gegenüber dem US-amerikanischen Rechtssystem aus deutscher Sicht eine gewisse, unverändert gebliebene Skepsis. Dieser Skepsis nähert sich die Untersuchung über die Frage der Anerkennungsfähigkeit US-amerikanischer Entscheidungen in Deutschland. Die Verfasserin verknüpft Fragen des Internationalen Zivilprozessrechts mit rechtsvergleichenden Aspekten, indem sie prozessuale Besonderheiten und Urteilswirkungen des US-amerikanischen Rechts darstellt und mit der Untersuchung der Anerkennungsfähigkeit gemäß 328 ZPO verbindet. Im Einzelnen erfolgt eine Analyse von Urteilswirkungen gegenüber beteiligten und unbeteiligten Dritten sowie einseitige Urteilswirkungen. Inhaltsverzeichnis US-amerikanische Urteilswirkungen, res judicata, subjektive Grenzen US-amerikanischer Urteile, Drittwirkungen, Anerkennung, ordre public, Drittbeteiligung nach US-amerikanischem Recht, nonparties, class action, non-mutual preclusion, einseitige Bindungswirkung

"An extraordinary collection-- hawk-eyed and understanding-- from the Booker Prize-winning, best-selling author of The Sense of an Ending and Levels of Life. As Julian Barnes explains: "Flaubert believed that ... great paintings required no words of explanation. Braque thought the ideal state would be reached when we said nothing at all in front of a painting ... But it is a rare picture that stuns, or argues, us into silence. And if one does, it is only a short time before we want to explain and understand the very silence into which we have been plunged." This is the exact dynamic that informs his new book. Barnes, in his 1989 novel A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters, had a chapter on Gericault's The Raft of the Medusa, and since then he has written about many great masters of nineteenth- and twentieth-century art, including Delacroix, Manet, Fantin-Latour, Cezanne, Degas, Redon, Bonnard, Vuillard, Vallotton, Braque, Magritte, Oldenburg, Howard Hodgkin, and Lucian Freud. The seventeen essays gathered here are adroit, insightful and, above all, a true pleasure to read "--

From the critically acclaimed author of Fooled by Randomness, a book about the impact of improbable events on every aspect of life.

The hero of Land of Fire --Chris Ryan's latest release--is a man faced with an agonising conflict within himself. Mark Black was a youthful SAS fighter in the Falklands war. To grab a female Argentine spy, he puts his life on the line. Along with his SAS colleagues, he is sent on a dangerous reconnaissance mission before an attack on a fortified airbase. Twenty years pass, and a threatening new Argentine military junta has its sights set on the Falklands again. And Mark Black, ill at ease with memories of his past, becomes involved in a new conflict after British air defences are destroyed in a sneak attack. Black once again meets the girl of his past, and finds that he has to trust an old enemy. While other Ryan novels (for all their virtues) have occasionally utilised well-worn plots, this one is absolutely fresh as paint. The narrative (spanning many years) packs all the requisite pace and action, but Ryan never forgets how crucial characterisation is. Black's relationship with the girl who was once his enemy is brilliantly and economically realised. -- Barry Forshaw
