Zborník príspevkov z XII. študentského sympózia z medzinárodného a európskeho práva konaného dňa 29. marca 2019 v Košiciach

Hlavným cieľom filmov, prípadne seriálov zvyčajne nie je vzdelávať svojho diváka. Súčasná kinematografia avšak obsahuje značný počet snímok, ktoré predstavujú problematiku spätú s medzinárodným a európskym právom nielen odbornej, ale aj laickej verejnosti. Z tohto dôvodu Ústav medzinárodného práva a európskeho práva Právnickej fakulty UPJŠ v Košiciach organizoval už v poradí XII. študentské sympózium z medzinárodného a európskeho práva s názvom „Medzinárodné a európske právo v kinematografii“, ktorého garantom bol prof. JUDr. Ján Klučka, CSc. Hlavným cieľom sympózia bolo spopularizovať medzinárodné a európske práva medzi študentmi práve prostredníctvom filmov alebo seriálov. Snímky spracované v rámci študentského sympózia možno rozdeliť na dve skupiny, a to na snímky, ktoré dramatizovali skutočné udalosti a na snímky, ktoré vytvárali vlastné scenáre, v rámci ktorých sú zakomponované inštitúty medzinárodného alebo európskeho práva. Prevažná väčšina príspevkov sa týkala filmov, ktoré stvárňovali skutočné udalosti, ako napr. okolnosti genocídy, ktorá sa odohrala v 90. rokoch v Rwande, priebeh Norimberského procesu, obsadenie amerického veľvyslanectva v Teheráne či spor medzi dedičkou obrazu „Dáma v zlatom“ a Rakúskom. Na druhej strane možno spomenúť seriál M*A*S*H, ktorý síce nedramatizuje skutočné udalosti, ale prostredníctvom vlastného príbehu nám približuje život zdravotných pracovníkov v poľnej vojenskej nemocnici v Kórei.

Hoci filmy nenahrádzajú prednášky, prípadne semináre z medzinárodného či európskeho práva, v určitom zmysle sú schopné doplniť tradičné formy vzdelávania v oblasti práva. Výhodou týchto filmov je možnosť lepšieho vcítenia sa do udalostí, ktoré rozoberajú. To môže podnietiť väčší záujem študentov o určitú problematiku a formovať ich kritické názory, ktoré nachádzajú svoje vyjadrenie v publikáciách podobných tomuto zborníku. Z pedagogického hľadiska majú filmy a seriály veľký potenciál, hoci treba mať na pamäti aj ich nevýhody. Filmy a seriály rovnako ako semináre sú prospešné len vtedy, ak sú spojené s aktívnou prácou študenta. Snímky majú výhodu ľahšieho zapojenia študentov, avšak niektorí môžu premietanie filmu či seriálu považovať za „prestávku“ od klasickej výučby a nevenovať mu dostatočnú pozornosť. Ostatní študenti sa môžu zapojiť do filmu, ale budú ho považovať ako náhradu a nie ako doplnok tradičných prostriedkov vyučovania práva. Tieto riziká však možno zmierniť, ak sú filmy prezentované serióznym spôsobom a s poukázaním na rozdiely medzi filmom a skutočnými udalosťami a právom uplatňovaným v konkrétnych prípadoch. Príspevky v tomto zborníku kriticky analyzujú vybrané snímky a poukazujú na správne, prípadne chybné zobrazenie či posúdenie inštitútov medzinárodného a európskeho práva.

Recenzovaný zborník príspevkov z 5. ročníka vedeckej konferencie doktorandov 6. február 2020

Dynamicky se vyvíjecící současná společnost vytváří v občanech očekávání a požadavky, aby verejná správa byla efektivní, spolehlivá, otevřená, profesionální a rychlá. Nové teorie poznatků v souvislosti s neustálými změnami však musí obsahovat i praktické uplatnění a promítnutí těchto charakteristik v systému veřejné správy v praxi. Právě z toho důvodu je důležité věnovat pozornost novým přístupům z teoretického i praktického pohledu k uplatňování moderní veřejné správy v podmínkách krajin V4. Vzhledem ke skutečnosti, že veřejná správa je interdisciplinární vědní disciplína, která využívá poznatky z široké škály vědních odborů a na základě toho umožňuje komplexně přistupovat k řešení problémů moderní veřejné správy, je recenzovaný sborník příspěvků z vědecké konference doktorandů rozdělen do třech sekcí: sociálno-ekonomické, politologické, právní. Sekce erudovaně reagují na současné problémy veřejné správy z teoretického i praktického hlediska.

Disasters, whether natural or industrial, have a serious impact on the functioning of society and are a negative phenomenon which, with the increasing impact of climate change, is increasingly affecting the sustainable development and prosperity of States. Their increasing regularity and intensity affect the current evolution not only of social life, but also of legal debates on the necessity of responding to international and national disaster response, eliminating their negative consequences and protecting affected persons. No State is immune to the occurrence of disasters, and this also applies to the Slovak Republic, which is mostly affected by sudden natural disasters, namely floods, landslides, droughts, fires, windstorms and snow calamities. In the event of a disaster, the state authorities of the Slovak Republic have a primary role in the protection of persons and coordination of rescue operations. In the event that the consequences of disasters clearly exceed available capacities, state officials are obliged to seek assistance from other States, the United Nations, the European Union, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and other actors whose numbers have increased significantly in recent years. The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent, together with the National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies are operating in almost every country of the world, is a major player in the international disaster response, resulting in their regular participation in rescue operations. Non-governmental organizations (hereinafter “NGOs”), which are key providers of humanitarian assistance, are also involved in rescue and humanitarian operations. Activities of the NGOs are not governed by any coherent legal source. The subject of this publication is the proposal of the methodological guidelines regulating the activities of NGOs in case of disaster, as well as cooperation with the state affected by the disaster, and the glossary of legal terms which need to be clear and unified in case of disaster. Slovak and English version of the proposal is basic precondition of its usability not only for the state organs of the Slovak republic and Slovak NGOs, but also for foreign NGOs.The Proposal of the methodological guidelines is the result of the research project VVGS-PCOV 2018-459: Návrh metodického postupu mimovládnych organizácií v prípade katastrofy v podmienkach Slovenskej republiky (The Proposal of the methodological guidelines for the non-governmental organisations in case of disaster in conditions of the Slovak republic).

Reviewed Proceedings of Papers of the Scientific Conference

Health determines an individual's life in all activities and interests, including the possibility and ability to work. Work and health are in the mutual interaction. Work leads to social inclusion, financial self-sufficiency, finding confirmation of one's own usefulness or achieving personal ambitions. Work can have therapeutic effects, but at the same time it can have an adverse effect on health. Overlapping factors of work environment, alone or in combination with non-work influences, can lead to illnesses that temporarily or permanently exclude an employee from his or her profession. For these reasons, health enjoys fundamental legal protection as one of the most important values, not only in labour relations. One of the auxiliary tools to ensure the protection of the health of employees in labour relations is the assessment of health capacity for work. The purpose of the assessment of health capacity is to ensure only the performance of work for which the individual has health prerequisites. The issue of assessing the medical and mental capacity of employees for work is an interdisciplinary topic in which not only legal science is represented, but also medical departments or the field of public health. Although the pandemic period extended several legal aspects of the researched area with new theses, at the same time it made impossible for experts to meet directly for a personal exchange of knowledge and to discuss the presented opinions. Despite unfavorable circumstances, the Department of Labour Law and Social Security Law of the Faculty of Law of Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice decided to proceed in the research of the grant project APVV-16-0002 Mental health in the workplace and assessment of health capacity of employee and to organize the electronic conference which held from 15th to 25th May 2020. The output of the international scientific conference is proceedings of scientific papers. The content of the reviewed proceedings of scientific papers declares the importance of addressing issues related to the protection of employees' health, not only from a legal point of view, but also in the context of its necessary interconnection with other scientific disciplines.

Hypotéza, dispozícia, sankcia. Štandardné trojčlenenie právnej normy, ktoré sa prednáša poslucháčom právnických fakúlt v prvom ročníku ich štúdia. Tri pojmy, ktoré študenti z ich pohľadu nepochybne ovládajú, súčasne však trápia právnu vedu, ktorá sa k nim opakovane vracia. Publikácia nemá ambíciu sa v teoretickom ponímaní zamerať na všetky aspekty právnej normy, zameriava sa len na jeden z nich a ako samotný názov napovedá, je nim sankcia.

Teoretické prístupy k chápaniu pojmu sankcia nie sú jednotné. V pracovnom práve zvlášť. Teoreticko-právne zistenia sú ťažiskom prvej časti monografie, ktorá predstavuje vstup do aplikačných problémov zachytených v druhej časti pojednávajúcej o súkromnoprávnych sankciách v pracovnom práve.

Druhá časť, súkromnoprávne sankcie. Hoc laický čitateľ, ktorý vezme publikáciu do rúk a nahliadne do druhej časti, okamžite nachytá kolektív autorov. Oprávnene sa môže zaraziť, že pri sankciách nevidí skončenie pracovného pomeru, veď aká iná sankcia sa uplatní voči zamestnancovi, ak nie výpoveď, okamžité skončenie pracovného pomeru či skončenie v skúšobnej dobe? Bezpochyby pravda. Autori sa priznávajú, opomenuli skončenie pracovného pomeru, upozornenie na porušenie pracovnej disciplíny a aj odmeňovanie. Ide však o natoľko komplexné témy, že ich zachytenie v monografii so snahou o nový, iný náhľad na sankcie by bolo len cestovným poriadkom, nie poctivou analýzou. Zámerom autorov bol pohľad na menej pertraktované sankcie, ktoré dopĺňajú už vyššie spomenuté možnosti skončenia pracovného pomeru.

Tretia časť, verejnoprávne sankcie. Mnohé normy pracovného práva sa svojim sémantickým zložením javia ako imperfektné bez účinnej zákonnej sankcie, čo možno vnímať ako oslabenie objektívnych normatívnych modalít, ktorými sú dovolenie a nedovolenie. Nie je tomu však tak. Kolektív autorov považuje pracovné právo primárne za odvetvie súkromného práva, avšak nemožno opomenúť výrazný zásah verejného 6 práva do súkromnoprávnych, resp. pracovnoprávnych vzťahov. Odráža sa najmä vo verejnej povahe sankcií.

Naostatok ešte jedna poznámka. Monografiu spracovali traja autori, ktorých vklad je rovnocenný, viedli polemiky a v mnohom sa nevedeli zhodnúť. Dúfame, že aj čitateľ sa do tohto názorového sporu pripojí a predložená monografia ho podnieti k úvahám a ďalšej vedeckej činnosti.

Monografia bola spracovaná ako výstup projektu VEGA č. 1/0526/17 Lingvistické a sankčné mechanizmy pri tvorbe a pôsobení noriem pracovného práva.

Proceedings of the 5th Year of the Student Symposium of Labour Law

New trends in the digital age around the world do not avoid the labour market and the labour law relations. Do labour law standards and employers' practices correspond to the actual factors that influence an individual's physical or mental condition? Does digitization, including artificial intelligence, bring improvements or threats? Is the protection of employees' mental health paid equal attention that to the protection of physical health? The Department of Labour Law and Social Security Law of the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice examines and analyzes legal aspects of new risks that threaten and affect individual health in the work environment within the researching of the project APVV-16-0002 - Mental Health in the Workplace and Employee Health Assessment. The members of the department, with the theme of the 5th year of the student symposium "New Challenges of Employees´ Health Protection" created an opportunity for students to search deeper current legal issues and reflect the results of their creative work in the submitted papers. The proceedings of papers of the student symposium is rich in content and offers the reader the space to get acquainted with interesting questions and application problems accompanying them.

The monograph deals with two fundamental aspects concerning evaluation of evidence in the law. In the first part, the monograph addresses the question: „How it is possible to apply law in individual case, if human knowledge about past is objectively limited and flawed?“ (e.g. what is the nature of truth in the law?). The second part of the monograph identifies certain models of reasoning concerning factual questions which occur across different individual legal cases (especially tax cases and criminal cases). In that regard, the monograph draws from Anglo-American legal scholarship and deals with three main concepts concerning evaluation of evidence: argumentation, probability and narratives and their role in evaluation of evidence.

The monograph is the output of the grant project APVV no. 16-0160 which deals with the issue of tax evasion and tax avoidance (especially their motivating factors, emergence, and elimination). The author believes that better understanding of evaluation of evidence may contribute to the improvement in effectiveness of tax administration.

The continuation of the tradition of an international scientific conference of PhD. students and young researchers have not been exception this year. The Department of Labour Law and Social Security Law, Faculty of Law, Pavol Jozef Šafarik University in Košice, as the organizer of this year's international scientific conference, has chosen a topic entitled "Protection, Prevention and Legal Liability." Because of the unfavorable epidemiological situation and the cancellation of scientific, professional and other mass events, the conference was transferred to a virtual form. The electronic platform of the conference via online discussion was realized from 3rd to 17th April 2020. The protective function of law, preventive obligations, but also the emerging responsibilities are a vast source of ideas for scientific research, asking questions and finding answers to a range of theoretical and application-law problems in every area of public and private law. Evidence of a generously understood topic is the presented proceedings of scientific papers. The proceedings, created within the solution of the grant task APVV-16-0002 -Mental Health in the Workplace and Employee Health Assessment, includes various aspects of legal regulation, from academic authors and authors from legal practice. Despite the diversity of the scientific focus, the papers are characterized by a unifying line corresponding to the central theme of the conference and show the interconnectedness of the different areas of law.

The concept of a transterritorial administrative act is relatively new in administrative law, especially in the conditions of the Slovak Republic. It has practical applicability to the application of European Union law (including international law). Its essence lies in the fact that the effects of such an administrative act issued within one Member State exceed the territory of that Member State, have effects in other Member States, in all Member States of the European Union without being subject to the recognition process.

The purpose of the monograph is to present outputs of the scientific examination of this type of administrative acts, the definition of its characteristics and its effects, the examination of the possibilities of procedural defense against its effects by the State concerned, and possibly the possibility of unifying the action of the Member States of the European Union in case of procedural defense against the effects of transterritorial administrative acts. The monograph also contains analysis of certain types of transterrritorial administrative acts that are commonly used in the conditions of the European union and Slovak republic; they are also categorized under specific criteria.,

The Collection of scientific contributions "Privatization of public law versus publicity of private law" is an output of the International scientific conference of Phd. students and scientific researchers organized by the Department of Criminal Law, Faculty of Law, Pavol Jozef Šafárik University. The collection contains contributions focused on the issues of the intersection of private and public law, specifically on the privatization of public law and publicity of private law.

This is a highly important topic, because the elements of privatization can be found across the entire public law, not only in the field of criminal law, but also in other legal branches of public law.Recently, there have been significant elements of publicity of private law, especially commercial or civil law. Therefore, we consider the topic of the conference and the title of the collection to be appropriately chosen and up to date without any significant limits in scientific research.

The participants of theInternational scientific conference in their contributions also focused on de lege ferenda considerations and offer a new perspective on the formation of public or private law.

The aim of the published Collection of scientific contributions isto continue in improving and developing new knowledge of the public law in the field of its privatization and private law in the field of its publicity.

Studies of the European Union law may hardly be possible without making use of its sources. Lots of types of legal rules, several forms of judicial decisions as well as a wide spectrum of criteria used while searching among legal acts of the European Union and case-law of its courts in search engines on the official websites of the European Union may, however, appear confusing, thereby making the work with sources of the European Union law more complicated and prolonging it. Methodology Guide „How to Work Correctly with the Sources of the European Union Law“ aims to help students to understand the system of sources of the European Union law as well as the sources themselves, offer them tips and advice useful during their search and thus contribute to the adoption of fundamental procedures for working with them.

ZBORNÍK PRÍSPEVKOV z medzinárodnej vedeckej konferencie PRÁVO FONDOV EÚ V TEÓRII A PRAXI
konanej dňa 3. októbra 2019 v Košiciach

Dňa 3. októbra 2019 sa v Historickej aule rektorátu Univerzity Pavla Jozefa Šafárika v Košiciach konala Medzinárodná vedecká konferencia s názvom „Právo fondov EÚ v teórii a praxi“ pod gesciou Úradu podpredsedu vlády SR pre investície a informatizáciu a Právnickej fakulty UPJŠ v Košiciach. Organizačne ju zastrešila Katedra ústavného práva a správneho práva Právnickej fakulty UPJŠ v Košiciach. Uvedené vedecké podujatie bolo prirodzeným vyústením riešenia grantovej schémy „Príprava nových kapacít pre EŠIF II.“ – NAKAP. V rámci tohto projektu vznikol na Právnickej fakulte UPJŠ v Košiciach nový predmet „Právo a fondy EÚ“, ktorý sa vyučuje v magisterskom študijnom programe v odbore „Právo“.

Konferencie sa zúčastnili predstavitelia akademickej sféry, pedagógovia Právnickej fakulty UPJŠ v Košiciach, ktorí predmet vytvorili a ďalej participujú na výučbe. Obohatením boli účastníci z praxe, či už z Úradu podpredsedu vlády SR pre investície a informatizáciu, z Úradu pre verejné obstarávanie SR, z Najvyššieho kontrolného úradu SR, resp. z Ministerstva práce, sociálnych vecí a rodiny SR. Veľmi hodnotné informácie na konferencii zazneli aj od predstaviteľov Ministerstva pro místní rozvoj ČR, zástupcov OECD, či od Zastúpenia Európskej komisie na Slovensku. Prednesené príspevky vysoko odborným spôsobom reflektovali aktuálnu problematiku, pomenovali problémové miesta i načrtli vhodné riešenia polemických miest.

Z jednotlivých vystúpení účastníkov konferencie sa tak podarilo zostaviť rozsahom síce nie veľké, no hodnotou veľmi pozoruhodné dielo, ktoré znamenitým spôsobom prepája teóriu a prax a rozširuje tak poznatky v ešte stále zložitej problematike právnej úpravy fondov Európskej únie.

The legal regulation of occupational health and the process of assessing the health capacity is one of the manifestations of fulfilling the protective function of labour law.

Due to the importance of pursuing the interest in protecting the life and health of the individual during his working life, as well as the consequences of damage to the employee's health for further work and continuance of employment relationship, research in this area finds its irreplaceable place in legal science. Its topicality is also highlighted by the emerging risks of work and the working environment. Technological progress associated with a change in the way of performing work, as well as the pandemic situation, have opened a number of new challenges for labour law that require attention.

The presented proceedings of abstracts responds to the outlined facts. It is a group of initial motives and conclusions of lectures presented at the scientific online conference "Health at Work in the Spectrum of Theory and Practice" organized by the Department of Labour Law and Social Security Law of the Faculty of Law, P. J. Šafárik University in Košice on16th April 2021. Authors point to a variety of problematic areas that are not only a reflection of academic considerations, but also of those legal issues that need to be addressed in ordinary legal practice.

The publication "Volené orgány kapitálových spoločností. Vybrané otázky" focuses on the assessment of legal aspects of the performance of corporate boards members and on solving application problems regarding relations arising between members of the board of directors and supervisory board and the company itself.

The first part of the publication deals with the basic conceptual preconditions to become members of elected corporate boards, including conditions for their appointment and removal. Among the issues addressed is also the required standard of performance of corporate boards members in relation to the concept of professional care and duty of loyalty. Remuneration of elected board members as well as the possibility of opposing the contract for performance are also analysed.

The application problems partly extend to bankruptcy law when examining the obligations of board of directors after the bankruptcy of a company, specifically in matters of the emergence of special liability of the board of directors as well as their performance even after the bankruptcy.

Reviewed collection of papers of the international scientific conference is the output of the international scientific conference held on 7th October 2022 within the framework of the project APVV-18-0421 „European Public Prosecutor's Office in Connections of the Constitutional Order of the Slovak Republic as Strengthening of the European Integration through Law“.

Unlike other areas of activities of the European Union, the European Union did not begin to enter the area of criminal law and criminal policy until much later. The reason is that the sphere of criminal law has traditionally been associated with the sovereignty of the state, which is why the Member States of the European Union are very slow to allow the European Union into it. The issue of the European Union's influence on the criminal law of its Member States is therefore becoming actual and raises many questions and application problems. In their papers, the authors address the various problems posed by the European Union's influence in the area of criminal law. Among the scientific problems and issues that the authors paid attention to in their works are the following: reasons for competence of the European Union within the field of criminal law; Impact of the EU legislation on criminal law of EU Member States; proposals to improve existing legislation, whether at European Union or national level, cooperation of the Court of Justice of the European Union and national judges via preliminary proceedings within the field of criminal law; as well as the issue of the European Public Prosecutor's Office.

The Collection of scientific contributions nationwide interdisciplinary scientific conference with international participation

The text book of scientific contributions The value direction of criminal law is the output of a nationwide interdisciplinary scientific conference with international participation organized by the Department of Criminal Law of the Faculty of Law of the UPJŠ in Košice. The proceedings contain contributions focused on issues of the value direction of criminal law, both in the field of substantive and procedural law.

This is a highly topical issue, as the values of law as such are reflected in each of its areas. In view of social events, the constant amendment of the criminal codes and, in particular, the forthcoming amendment of both the Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure, we consider the topic of the conference and the title of the text book to be highly topical, without significant limits in scientific research.

In their contributions, the participants of the national interdisciplinary scientific conference with international participation also devoted themselves to reflections de lege ferenda and offer insights into the above-mentioned amendments to the criminal codes into practice as well as their upcoming amendments.

The aim of the published proceedings is to continue to improve and develop new knowledge in the field of criminal law in the light of the new rules, while adhering to all established values, on the basis of the previous professional knowledge.
