This book aims to provide a thorough critical analysis of how social theory shapes social policy and how effective policies can be informed by theoretical frameworks emanating from history and the present. This book is both important and significant: by bridging the gap between theory and policy, this book seeks to contribute to the development of evidence-based policies that promote social cohesion, social justice, and well-being. The book is one of the first to open up theoretical strategies and applicability to social policies.International Perspectives on Social Policy, Administration, and Practice,2625-6983SociologySocial sciencesPhilosophySocial policySociologySocial TheorySocial PolicyGlobal Social PolicyComparative Social PolicySociology.Social sciencesPhilosophy.Social policy.Sociology.Social Theory.Social Policy.Global Social Policy.Comparative Social Policy.301Powell Jason L1734153MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910983332703321Bridging the Divide4317578UNINA03221nam 22005895 450 991076359310332120250625140226.09783031467240303146724810.1007/978-3-031-46724-0(MiAaPQ)EBC30881082(Au-PeEL)EBL30881082(CKB)28817576300041(OCoLC)1409430428(DE-He213)978-3-031-46724-0(EXLCZ)992881757630004120231110d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierInvestment Screening and WTO Law The Example of the EU Screening Regulation /by Erich Vranes1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Springer,2023.1 online resource (78 pages)SpringerBriefs in Law,2192-8568Print version: Vranes, Erich Investment Screening and WTO Law Cham : Springer,c2023 9783031467233 Introduction -- Political and Economic Reasons for Investment Screening -- Investment Screening in the EU -- WTO Disciplines Relevant for Investment Screening -- The Example of EU Investment Screening as a “Test Case” under WTO Law -- Summary of Conclusions.In recent years, there has been a worldwide intensification in the use of investment screening mechanisms. This surge is connected with political re-orientations, the rise of new economic powers, and security concerns. Despite the considerable effects that investment screening may have on international investment and trade, there is hardly any literature examining the consequences to be drawn from relevant WTO rules for investment screening. However, the importance of WTO law for such instruments is substantial not least due to the broad scopes of application of the GATT and GATS agreements. The risk that screening activities could be challenged before the WTO is underlined by pertinent panel reports. This book in particular uses the 2019 EU Screening Regulation as an example for illustrating the relevance that WTO law has for investment screening. It concludes that in the light of relevant WTO rulings screening activities undertaken for public order and security reasons may face considerable hurdles not least in the general exceptions and security exceptions of the GATT and the GATS.SpringerBriefs in Law,2192-8568International lawTrade regulationCommercial lawEuropean Economic CommunityInternational Economic Law, Trade LawEuropean Economic LawInternational law.Trade regulation.Commercial law.European Economic Community.International Economic Law, Trade Law.European Economic Law.346.092Vranes Erich1427829MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910763593103321Investment Screening and WTO Law3601275UNINA
