Given the importance of the ownership right, the aim of this monograph is to provide an analysis, a clear systematic interpretation and an evaluation of the above issue, not only from the theoretical point of view, but also from the point of view of legal practice. The protection of ownership relations is ensured in various ways. It is judicial protection, protection provided by local self-government authorities, self-help, public registration of real property and other instruments of administrative and criminal law. In connection with the transformation of legislation in Slovakia and Poland after the fall of the socialist regime, there have been many changes in the legislation of both countries concerning the protection of ownership rights. A number of private law institutions related to the ownership of real property, the use of which was impossible or limited during the socialist period, have been restored. Legislation has also been adopted to alleviate the consequences of certain property and other injustices caused by the deprivation of ownership of real property during the socialist period. The adoption of restitution legislation was the basis for restoring the ownership rights of the original owners, who were allowed to get back their real property that had been used by socialist organisations. After the end of the socialist regime, the various forms of ownership, which until then had favoured the state ownership, were abolished. Changes were made to ensure that the ownership rights of all owners had the same content and enjoyed the same legal protection. The monograph is structured in such a way as to enable a comparison of individual institutions of rights in rem under Polish and Slovak law. The monograph also analyses the relevant decision-making practice of the supreme judicial authorities. The scientific methods applied enabled the authors not only to analyse and evaluate the historical context and the current legal regulation of ownership rights in Poland and Slovakia, but also to point out possible gaps and shortcomings and to elaborate de lege ferenda proposals that can be used in future legislative activity.

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.

In addition to acquiring theoretical knowledge, it is necessary to study and analyze the decisions of international judicial and arbitration bodies in order to fully understand the subject of the Public International Law or disciplines closely related to it. Since the Slovak literature in the field of Public International Law does not contain any electronic textbook of selected decisions of international judicial and arbitration bodies, the authors of the submitted publication aim to eliminate this gap by elaborating the “Public International Law Casebook”, which will primarily be intended for undergraduate students of the law faculties in the Slovak republic and the Czech republic. The proposed publication seeks to make the study of international law more attractive through a publication that will make students familiar with the decisions translated into the Slovak language in a popular electronic form.

Collection of Contributions from the XVth Student Symposium on International Law and European Law, held on April 22, 2022, in a hybrid format, with the participation of students from the Faculty of Law of Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice and the Faculty of Law of Trnava University in Trnava.

The jubilee XV. year of student symposium from international and European law took place at the University of Pavol Jozef Šafárik, faculty of law, on April 22, 2022, symbolically on Day Earth. This year's event was dedicated to the increasingly pressing issue of environmental protection. The topic "Green ambitions in the light of European and international law" appealed to many students, resulting in several interesting contributions, falling under both European Union law and international law. European law currently brings great challenges, but also expectations through the European Green Deal. This is also why several student contributions dealt with topics falling under the European Green Deal, either from the point of view of its individual initiatives in general, or more specifically, in the intentions of Agenda 2030, or the implementation of the so-called green diplomacy. The other part of contributions dealt with environmental protection within international law. Students addressed issues of an environmental nature in the areas of climate change, international maritime law, atmospheric protection, or the issue of so-called climate refugees. The publication itself is an output of the APVV project APVV-20-0576 "Green ambitions for sustainable development (European Green Deal in the context of international and national law)".

The presented monograph is dedicated to the reforms of local administration in the middle of the 19th century, which led to the introduction of municipalism - the nationalization of local administration. The work is primarily devoted to the analysis of the differences between legal articles 42/1870 and 21/1884, the second of which has so far been considered by Slovak legal historians as an amendment. I will explain the differences in the text of both standards, as well as by pointing out the practice of applying both standards in local practice in Abov and Turňa, the legal article 21/1884 is applicable, it is recoded and after the thresholds of the Czechoslovakia it was received as an obligation of the local sparva in Slovakia and is valid even in the time of Conclusion The Trianon peace treaty.

Proceedings of the international scientific conference held on April 13-14, 2023, organized by the Department of History of State and Law, Faculty of Law, University of Pavel Jozef Šafárik in Košice. The presented collection provides a summary of scientific works from the last international conference dealing with the issue of the Trianon Peace Treaty and the negotiations during the peace conference after 1918. The collection contains scientific contributions from members of the research team of the APVV 19-0419 project, as well as other experts from the field of legal history. Through their contributions, they offer an insight into the complex processes of the formation of Europe after the First World War. They approximate the essential and relatively complicated processes of negotiations on important issues of the post-war arrangement and the further direction of individual countries. Contributions of foreign legal historians, which bring an alternative view of the examined issue, are a stimulating contribution to the collection. The anthology includes scientific studies related to the investigated issue, often with an overlap with the present. The collection also includes scientific contributions with positive legal topics. The collection in the presented form is thus primarily intended for readers from the professional public. Last but not least, it can interest the lay public interested in the issue of the post-war arrangement and Slovak-Hungarian relations.

Priemyselnej revolúcii sa nemožno vyhnúť, ani sa pred ňou skryť, súčasne je však rovnako nesprávne vidieť ju iba v sivých farbách. Buďme optimistickí. Informačný vek môže znamenať aj 6 6 znižovanie rozsahu pracovného času, snáď širší čas pre rodinu a medziľudské vzťahy či celkové zvýšenie ekonomického prepychu jednotlivca. Informačný vek zoberie množstvo pracovných príležitostí, ale ďalšie priehrštie položí na stôl, avšak zväčša iba pre vzdelaných. Veda a výskum budú pre celkový hospodársky rozvoj ešte dôležitejšie než dnes. Buďme pripravení.

Ambíciou tejto monografie nie je a ani nemôže byť poskytnúť vyčerpávajúcu odpoveď na vyššie načrtnuté polemiky. Jej cieľom je podnietiť širšiu vedeckú diskusiu najmä o problematike ochrany duševného zdravia v korelácii s nástupom informačného veku. Predmetom skúmania je ochrana jednotlivca – zamestnanca, ktorý sa musí adaptovať na nové technologické prostredie a nároky s ním spojené. Monografia predstavuje ucelený výstup autorov, ktorí v ostatných dvoch rokov publikovali v rámci grantovej APVV-16-0002 Duševné zdravie na pracovisku a posudzovanie zdravotnej spôsobilosti zamestnanca na obdobné témy. Autori veria, že aj vďaka označenému grantu APVV, budú v ďalších rokoch na predmetnú tému nadväzovať. Čo je však najdôležitejšie veríme, že jej obsah zaujme vás, čitateľov.

Predkladaný výber dokumentov z medzinárodného práva verejného sa pokúša mapovať medzinárodné právo tak z hľadiska historického, ako aj z hľadiska jednotlivých odvetví. Čitateľ v predkladanom výbere nájde niekoľko historických dokumentov, avšak výber sa zameriava najmä na aktuálne platné pramene práva. Výber sa orientuje podľa publikácie Medzinárodné právo verejné – všeobecná a osobitná časť od prof. Jána Klučku. Tomu zodpovedá aj delenie na všeobecnú a osobitnú časť. Všeobecná časť venuje pozornosť historickému vývoju medzinárodného práva, avšak primárne sa zaoberá ochranou jednotlivca a zodpovednostnými vzťahmi v medzinárodnom práve. Osobitná časť následne sleduje medzinárodnú úpravu jednotlivých inštitútov medzinárodného práva. Uvedomujeme si, že takto zostavený výber ponúka ďalší priestor na rozširovanie, avšak nazdávame sa, že takýto výber spĺňa základné požiadavky a je vyplnením určitej medzery v náuke medzinárodného práva.
Veríme, že predkladaná zbierka materiálov medzinárodného práva verejného bude pre študentov, a nie len pre nich, prínosná pri štúdiu medzinárodného práva verejného a prispeje k zvýšeniu povedomia v oblasti medzinárodného práva verejného.
