The economic analysis of international law is a field of research which is still very new but which for several years has been growing and become extremely promising. For this reason the organizers of the XIVth Travemünde Symposium on the economic analysis of law decided for the second time to bring together economists and jurists from Europe and non-European countries in order to discuss some of those problems of international law which are still unsolved. The articles resulting from this, published in this volume, discuss how natural disasters, civil wars or economic collapses affect international law and how international law deals with these extreme conditions.

The topics covered in this volume range from classics of the on-going discussion on the economic analysis of international law - such as the issue of legitimacy of customary international law - to more recent topics such as internet privacy, private military contractors, the fight against piracy, the International Criminal Court and the highly topical issue of land grabbing.

The book explores a significant shift in moral attitudes in England at the turn of the nineteenth century, highlighting a newfound prudishness that emerged among the younger generation. Perrin argues that this change, characterized by a more reserved approach to sexuality, was largely influenced by the rise of delicacy, particularly among women. The author notes that this cultural shift led to heightened sensitivity toward sexual topics, with behaviors such as blushing and fainting becoming common responses to perceived impropriety.

The paper explores the reasons behind Shakespeare's immense popularity during his lifetime, particularly focusing on his ability to attract diverse audiences to his plays. By examining a specific aspect of his style in "Romeo and Juliet," the author aims to uncover insights into the factors that contributed to Shakespeare's widespread appeal and success. Through this analysis, the paper seeks to provide a deeper understanding of what made his work resonate with people from various backgrounds.

Am 25. Mai 2008 feiert Hans-Bernd Schäfer seinen 65. Geburtstag, was das Ende seiner 32-jährigen aktiven Zeit an der Universität Hamburg markiert. In diesen drei Jahrzehnten hat er die „ökonomische Analyse des Rechts“ in Europa maßgeblich vorangetrieben, eine Forschungsrichtung, die in den frühen siebziger Jahren in den USA entstand. Zusammen mit Claus Ott veröffentlichte er 1986 das „Lehrbuch der ökonomischen Analyse des Zivilrechts“, das den Ansatz erstmals systematisch auf das kontinentaleuropäische „civil law“ anwendet. Das große Interesse an diesem Werk zeigt sich in der vierten Auflage der deutschen Ausgabe sowie in englischen, spanischen und chinesischen Übersetzungen. Schäfer hat sein Engagement für die ökonomische Analyse des Rechts durch zahlreiche Veröffentlichungen zu verschiedenen rechtspolitischen Themen in angesehenen Fachzeitschriften und durch die Herausgabe von Konferenzbänden dokumentiert. Als ausgebildeter Ökonom hat er den Dialog mit Juristen gefördert und interdisziplinäre Lehrveranstaltungen angeboten. Zudem initiierte er gemeinsam mit Claus Ott vor etwa zwanzig Jahren das alle zwei Jahre stattfindende Travemünder Symposium zur ökonomischen Analyse des Rechts.
