Reviewed proceedings from the student symposium organized on the occasion of IV. Slovak-Czech days of tax law.

The International Scientific Conference IV. Slovak-Czech days of tax law was held 16th - 18th June 2021 in Košice (Faculty of Law of Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice). On this occasion, a student symposium on the topic: "Current Challenges of Tax Law" was organized for students of the Pavol Jozef Šafárik University Faculty of Law in Košice on 15th June 2021. The focus of the symposium was chosen due to the content of the grant project APVV-19-0124 entitled "Tax law and new phenomena in the economy (digital services, shared economy, virtual currencies)", which is currently being addressed at the Department of Financial Law, Tax Law and Economy, Faculty of Law, Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice. The output of this symposium is a reviewed proceeding of papers, in which students focus on examining the current challenges of tax law. In this context, students examine not only the current challenges in the field of real estate tax and the introduction of taxation based on their market value of real estate, the decision-making of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the field of direct taxation and indirect taxation, but also new and extremely current taxation issues of cryptoactive (virtual currency) taxation, not only in the Slovak Republic but also in the world. The authors also assess in detail the current situation in the research area, and they also present de lege ferenda proposals that could contribute to the development and improvement of several aspects of taxation, which is a benefit not only for legal science but also for application practice.

Zborník príspevkov zo VI. študentského sympózia z obchodného práva konaného dňa 28. novembra 2018 na Právnickej fakulte Univerzity Pavla Jozefa Šafárika v Košiciach

Katedra obchodného práva a hospodárskeho práva Právnickej fakulty Univerzity Pavla Jozefa Šafárika v Košiciach zorganizovala v poradí už VI. ročník študentského sympózia z obchodného práva, ktoré sa uskutočnilo dňa 28. novembra 2018 na pôde Právnickej fakulty UPJŠ v Košiciach. Podujatie bolo súčasťou riešenia výskumného projektu VEGA 1/0917/16 „Atypické a faktické vzťahy v obchodnom práve“. Cieľom každoročne organizovaných sympózií je vytvoriť diskusnú platformu pre študentov za účasti mentorov z radov členov katedry, a to učiteľov, vedecko-výskumných pracovníkov ako aj doktorandov.

Téma tohtoročného sympózia sa niesla v znamení ochrany proti obmedzovaniu hospodárskej súťaže. Obmedzovanie súťaže bez možnosti právneho postihu a nápravy by znamenalo pre obmedzovateľa ekonomickú výhodu na úkor ostatných súťažiteľov a ohrozenie celého trhu založenom na slobodnej súťaži. Študenti sa venovali viacerým problematickým otázkam súvisiacim s témou hospodárskej súťaže, pričom analyzovali slovenskú a európsku právnu úpravu, ako aj judikatúru súdov a rozhodnutia iných orgánov.

Pri spracovaní jednotlivých tém študenti mali možnoť zdokonaliť svoje analytické myslenie a argumentačné schopnosti ako aj rozvíjať svoje kritické myslenie. V rámci diskusie sa zrodili ďalšie zaujímave pohľady a názory, ktoré viedli účastníkov sympózia k aktívnemu zapojeniu sa k príspevkom ďalších účastníkov sympózia. Predkladaný zborník je výstupom prác študentov z tohto podujatia.

Zborník príspevkov z medzinárodnej vedeckej konferencie konanej dňa 27. septembra 2013 na Právnickej fakulte UPJŠ v Košiciach. 

Občiansky zákonník je jednou zo základných právnych kodifikácií dnešnej doby. Paradoxom je, že v Slovenskej republike dodnes platí zákonník z roku 1964, pravda s istými úpravami, ktoré priniesla moderná doba. V súčasnosti prebiehajú rekodifikačné snahy, ktorých výsledkom by malo byť prijatie nového Občianskeho zákonníka. Nie je však možné budovať nové bez znalosti starého. Je preto dobrým znakom, ak sa na spoločnej konferencií stretnú právni historici s civilistami, aby si vymenili názory a poznatky. Katedra dejín štátu a práva košickej Právnickej fakulty je v roku 2013 v prvom roku riešenia vedeckého grantového projektu VEGA: Historickoprávny vývoj inštitútu kúpnej zmluvy a tendencie jej súčasnej rekodifikácie v SR - č. p.: 1/0131/13. Uvedený projekt sme získali ako historickoprávny, participuje však na ňom aj Katedra občianskeho práva, veď doc. JUDr. K. Kirstová, CSc. je zástupkyňou vedúceho projektu. Vedomí si toho, že ide o úplne unikátne prepojenie právnych dejín a praxe, naša katedra dňa 27. septembra 2013 zorganizovala medzinárodnú vedeckú konferenciu Kúpna zmluva - história a súčasnosť I., ktorá bola plánovaným grantovým výstupom, v konečnom dôsledku sa však konala v čase, kedy košická Právnická fakulta oslavovala 40. výročie svojho vzniku. Tento zborník je teda súhrnom vystúpení z riešenia grantového projektu, ale aj vystúpení, ktoré s riešenou témou súvisia. Má ambíciu výraznou mierou prispieť k poznaniu dejín a súčasných rekodifikačných snáh inštitútu kúpnej zmluvy doma a v zahraničí.

This monograph examines when the state has the right to intervene in the legal relationship between contracting parties, and if it is possible, when it can act as a legislator and/or a law applier and what the nature of the intervention may be. In this study, the limits related to the rights and obligations of the parties are scrutinized. The monograph delineates the theoretical frameworks of state intervention. The author distinguishes the forms of intervention concerning future contracts and those already concluded. The study lists the circumstances grounding the mandatory norms concerning future contracts with the presentation of Roman law. In the context of state influence on the content of contracts already concluded, judicial decisions play a stronger role than legislation and government measures also appear. The monograph presents the legislative measures affecting the contracts already concluded and the reasons thereof in a differentiated way, divided into different periods. In the author's view, World War I and especially the subsequent Treaty of Trianon brought a significant change in the assessment of state intervention, and therefore, he devotes special attention to the examination of this period. The monograph provides an outline of overview of the international tendencies of the period from the peace treaty to the present day. The study presents the era of Hungarian legislation being prone to make mandatory rules and delineates the relevant provisions of the applicable Hungarian law. At the end of the monograph the reader can find the author’s evaluative comments. While acknowledging the positive aspects of state involvement, attention should also be paid to the dangers of excessive state intervention in Eastern Europe.

Predkladaná vedecká monografia sa zaoberá problematikou Rule of Law a jeho miestom, úlohami a osobitosťami na úrovni medzinárodného práva.Predkladaná vedecká monografia sa zaoberá problematikou Rule of Law a jeho miestom, úlohami a osobitosťami na úrovni medzinárodného práva. Law ako hodnote, ktorá by mala vládnuť v jednotlivých spoločenstvách, vnútroštátnych i medzinárodných. Rule of Law je tak prirovnávané k základnej norme Kelsena, ktorá by mala stáť na vrchole právneho poriadku ako norma zdôvodňujúca platnosť a existenciu noriem právneho poriadku, vnútroštátneho i medzinárodného.
Hoci je predmetom skúmania Rule of Law na úrovni medzinárodného práva, nemôžeme o ňom uvažovať bez toho, aby sme pochopili Rule of Law vo vnútroštátnom práve. Podobne ako sa líši vývoj Rule of Law v závislosti od toho, či sa rozvíjalo v anglo-americkom alebo kontinentálnom práve, líši sa i jeho aplikácia a rozvoj na úrovni vnútroštátneho práva a medzinárodného práva. Odlišnosti spôsobujú najmä úlohy a ciele, ktoré má medzinárodné Rule of Law zabezpečiť, no i odlišné vlastnosti vnútroštátneho a medzinárodného práva.

The possibility of solving the grant project VVGS-2016-284 has provided a unique opportunity for members of the author´s team in the interdisciplinary composition to examine the issue not only from a tax-law point of view, but also from a political point of view. In the presented monograph, the authors focused on the characterization of different aspects of the EU in order to allow the reader correctly understand its position in relation to the outside world and to its inward relations within its Member States in the context of the creation and implementation of the EU tax policy. Particular attention is paid to the definition of the relationship between national tax legislation and EU law, the impact of the EU's tax policy on the national laws of its Member States, with reference to the identification of the harmonized areas with the approximation of their current stage of development and the final objective. This definition can be seen as a prerequisite for a correct and comprehensive understanding of the application and implementation of EU institutions' initiatives to prevent tax evasion and tax fraud and their implementation into the national legal order of the Slovak Republic. In the last part of the monograph, the authors focused on defining individual EU initiatives to combat tax evasion and tax fraud as a means of implementing its tax policy, in the area of ​​indirect taxation, in particular in the field of value added tax and in the field of direct taxation, especially with regard to corporate taxation, and to evaluate their projection into the national tax legislation of the Slovak Republic. At the same time, in these chapters, they assessed the real impact and effect of the measures admitted on the basis of the initiatives in practice.

The presented work is intended for a university student studying in the field of Tax Law and European Law, as well as the broader legal and economic community. However, in view of the scope and recency of the subject under consideration, the authors believe that the publication will find its application not only in the theoretical field but also in the practical field.

Učebnica Všeobecnej štátovedy predstavuje tradičný obsah predmetu, ako sa rozvinul v európskej kontinentálnej podobe (altematívou štátovedy je dnes na viacerých univerzitách, aj mimo právnických fakúlt, politická veda). Medzi dvanástimi kapitolami  sa okrem viac-menej stabilne prítomných  (1. Jednotlivca spoločnosť; 2. Teórie o príčinách vzniku štátu a o účele štátu; 3. Znaky (prvky)štátu; 8. Politické strany a štát) nachádzajú aj kapitoly, ktoré spravidla nie sú, alebo doteraz neboli predmetom štandardného záujmu (5. Politický spor, zmena ústavy,  revolúcia,  právo  na  odpor;  6. Rozpadnuté  a stroskotané  štáty;  7. Štát a cirkev).Niektoré kapitoly predstavujú návrat k pôvodným štátovedným klasifikáciám (9. Funkcie štátu). V rámci prezentácie historických a aktuálnych otázok týkajúcich sa Formy štátu (najrozsiahlejšia 1O. kapitola)ide o pokus objasnit' nové aspekty problematiky(napríklad, podkapitoly ako Parlamentná opozícia, Ústavné súdnictvo). Záverečná časť učebnice sa venuje Modernému ústavnému štátu: právnemu štátu(12.kapitola)a možno ju považovat' za príspevok k analýze princípov právneho štátu a jeho viacerých teórií. Úmyslom autora bolo tiež prispieť k autentickému výkladu názorov niektorých myslitel'ov  predošlých období, návratom k pôvodným textom ich diel. Všeobecná štátoveda, adresovaná predovšetkým študentom, má za ciel' tvoriť úvod do právnického štúdia ako jeho osvedčená základňa, zdroj i východisko.

Peer-reviewed proceedings 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.

The student symposium under the title Commercial and Labour Law on a Common Wave was carried out as part of the research projects VEGA 1/0259/22 and VEGA č. 1/0291/23. The aim of the annual symposia is to create a discussion platform for students under the supervision of mentors from among the members of the department, namely teachers, researchers and PhD students. The theme of this year's symposium brought about discussion of interesting theoretical and practical legal issues thematically focused on the synergy of business law and labour law. The students addressed topical issues related to the status of entrepreneurs, the conduct of companies in labour law relations as well as the duties and responsibilities of employees. The topics of the sharing economy, gender quotas in corporate bodies and unfair bribery were not forgotten. While working on individual topics, students had the opportunity to improve their analytical thinking and argumentation skills, while they could practice writing a legal professional text, which in practice often increases the success of every lawyer. Students had the opportunity to develop their critical thinking and learn how to clearly formulate their own opinions on current legal issues. After the presentation of the papers, not only the team of lecturers and researchers, but also the students themselves engaged in a fruitful discussion, asking a number of original questions. Each student participant was awarded a certificate for their active participation in the symposium. The present proceedings are the outcome of the students' work from this event.
