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.

Zborník príspevkov z IX. ročníka študentského Sympózia z medzinárodného a európskeho práva konaného dňa 22. apríla 2016 na pôde Právnickej fakulty Univerzity P. J. Šafárika v Košiciach

Ako vyplýva zo samotného názvu IX. ročníka študentského sympózia z medzinárodného a európskeho práva: „Aktuálne otázky migrácie z pohľadu medzinárodného práva s osobitným zreteľom na Chartu základných práv Európskej únie“, jeho účastníci sa zamerali na mimoriadne aktuálnu tému európskej migrácie, ktorú skúmali z rôznych aspektov ako medzinárodného, tak aj úniového práva (celkom 9 príspevkov).

Pri posudzovaní úlohy jednotlivých aktérov podieľajúcich sa hlavnou mierou na riešení problémov vznikajúcich v dôsledku migrácie do Európy bola zdôraznená predovšetkým úloha medzinárodných špecializovaných organizácií, ktoré často priamo v „teréne“ pomáhajú migrantom s ich neľahkým údelom prostredníctvom humanitárnej, prípadne lekárskej pomoci. Táto však netvorí jedinú reagenciu medzinárodného spoločenstva, nakoľko ju dotvára ako činnosť dotknutých štátov, tak aj rôznych nevládnych organizácií a dobrovoľníkov.

V súvislosti s hodnotením činnosti Európskej únie sa účastníci sympózia zhodli na tom, že masová migračná vlna ju zasiahla pomerne nepripravenú a to ako po inštitucionálnej, legislatívnej a technickej stránke sprevádzanej neujasnenosťou v zaujatí základného prístupu k tejto skutočnosti. Bolo tiež zdôraznené, že k týmto pochybeniam došlo napriek tomu, že vývoj v predošlom období jasne signalizoval možnosť prerastania postupnej migrácie do Európskej únie do masovej podoby. Dodatočné ex post a niekedy aj oneskorené opatrenia prijímané ako reakcia na už prebiehajúci migračný proces podľa názoru účastníkov sympózia prispeli k celkovému zvýšeniu politického napätia v EÚ a rozdelili jej členské štáty do protikladných táborov.

V rámci analýzy legislatívnych nástrojov EÚ na regulovanie migrácie bola detailnejšia pozornosť venovaná tzv. nariadeniu Dublin III, ako aj vplyvu Charty základných práv Európskej únie na spoločný azylový systém (vo svetle vybraných rozhodnutí Európskeho súdneho dvora).

Účastníci sympózia sa tiež oboznámili so základnými zásadami migračnej politiky Austrálie, ktorá v súčasnosti predstavuje celkovo úspešný model riešenia hromadnej migrácie. V rámci diskusie účastníci došli k spoločnému názoru, že austrálsky migračný model môže predstavovať určitú „inšpiráciu“ aj pre Európu a to najmä vo včasnej reagencii na migračné toky aj prostredníctvom osobitných dohovorov Úvodom 9 o spolupráci s krajinami, odkiaľ migranti prichádzajú, ako aj v určitej „flexibilite“ azylového systému. Táto sa môže prejaviť v zavedení dočasného azylového režimu pre azylantov (napríklad 2-3 roky) sprevádzaného monitoringom politickej a bezpečnostnej situácie v jeho domovskom štáte. V prípade, že sa situácia v tomto štáte upokojí azylantovi nebude predĺžený poskytnutý azyl a umožní sa mu odchod do domovského štátu.

The document, titled "Vatican Diplomacy Around Trianon from a Hungarian Perspective," is a scholarly work that examines the geopolitical and ecclesiastical changes in East-Central Europe after the Treaty of Trianon in 1920, with a focus on the role of the Vatican. The book explores the interactions between the Vatican and the reshaped geopolitical landscape, emphasizing the influence of religious and ecclesiastical issues on international relations. The monograph posits that Central Europe is not merely a geographic or economic concept but a "spiritual kingdom" with a shared destiny shaped by interdependence and cultural achievements, despite its history of conflicts. Central Europe's rich intellectual and cultural heritage, deeply influenced by religious convictions and Vatican diplomacy, continues to impact the region's identity and unity. The book suggests that the lessons from the early 20th century, including the Trianon Peace Treaty and subsequent geopolitical shifts, are still relevant in understanding the contemporary political and cultural dynamics of Central Europe. The authors encourage readers to reflect on the past and consider how historical events and decisions have shaped present-day Central Europe. The book aims to provide insights into the region's complex history and its ongoing struggle to find its place in the broader European and global context.

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.

From January 1, 1969, the Constitutional Act on the Status of Nationalities in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic (ČSSR) and the Constitutional Act on the Federation came into effect. The Constitutional Act on the Status of Nationalities represented at least a formal significant step forward in the legal regulation of minority rights. However, this law was intended to serve as a foundation for further legal adjustments. It was declared that additional steps and negotiations for the adoption of implementing regulations would follow and that further laws would be enacted at both the federal and national levels. Nevertheless, no additional law or government regulation related to the constitutional act on the status of nationalities in the ČSSR was ever issued.

During the normalization period, issues concerning further legislation related to national minorities were not addressed. However, in the brief period following the adoption of the constitutional act in 1968 until the end of 1969, some institutions attempted to prepare and promote such legal norms. One of these institutions was the Government Council of the Slovak Socialist Republic (SSR) for Nationalities (hereafter referred to as the Council or the Government Council for Nationalities). The monograph provides an insight into the development of additional legal norms arising from the constitutional act on the status of nationalities in the Slovak Socialist Republic, prepared by the Government Council of SSR for Nationalities. This council was one of the institutions established in Slovakia after the formation of the Czechoslovak federation and dealt with nationality issues.

In addressing further legal norms stemming from the constitutional act on nationalities in ČSSR, it was necessary to consider prior developments. Therefore, the first part of the monograph examines the status of minorities in Czechoslovakia before adopting the constitutional act, activities of nationalities preceding its adoption, and its enactment itself. Subsequent sections focus on institutional changes in SSR following federalization, the establishment of the Government Council of SSR for Nationalities, and specific actions taken by this Council and its expert bodies in drafting proposals for laws concerning nationalities in the Slovak Socialist Republic.

The motivation for writing this monograph stemmed from the fact that this topic has so far received attention only in a few studies in Slovakia, which primarily focused on the Hungarian minority during either the Prague Spring or normalization periods.

The scientific monograph The H(andb)ook of Legal Feminism: The Concept, Nature, Features, Development and Forms of Legal Feminism presents for the first time the issue of legal feminism in Slovak jurisprudence in such a comprehensive way. Author analyzes legal feminism as a distinctive movement of legal philosophy and legal theory. He places legal feminism in the broader framework of general feminism. The internal ideological and developmental diversity of legal feminism brings the author´s examinations before the effort to systematize according to ideological and theoretical similarities or differences with emphasize to the development of feminism in different waves. In this regarding, author presents various forms of feminism and legal feminism, including their most important representatives. The increased view of the monograph deals with contemporary Anglo-American feminism since the end of the 1960s till the present, i.e., the period from which legal feminism emerged as a conceptual and critical movement of legal thinking. Author analyzes the critical view of legal feminism on law and current legal policy. He specifies abstract and basic theoretical features of the feminist jurisprudence. In this regard, the author pays attention to important concepts, categories, ideological assumptions, or methodological and methodological frame of feminist legal science. In addition to providing a comprehensive overview of the development of diverse forms of legal feminism the monograph also focuses on the normative side of feminist theory of law, which challenges the modern jurisprudence in elimination of gender and gender as legally relevant criteria.

Zborník príspevkov zo študentskej rozpravy konanej dňa 24. apríla 2013 na Právnickej fakulte UPJŠ v Košiciach.

V súčasnom období sa o právnom štáte v širokej miere debatuje tak na úrovni akademickej, ako i na úrovni politickej. Táto debata súvisí nie len so snahou o nastolenie Rule of Law v štátoch, ktoré prešli od socialistického zriadenia na demokratické, ale aj v štátoch, ktoré sa zmietajú v rôznych nepokojoch, politických či náboženských. Avšak nejde len o debatu týkajúcu sa niektorých znakov Rule of Law, ktoré chýbajú vo vnútroštátnom práve, resp. znakov Rule of Law chýbajúcich na úrovni medzinárodného práva, ale aj o debatu o samotnej definícii a zmysle Rule of Law. Právny štát by sme mohli prirovnať k ideálu, ktorý sa snaží dosiahnuť takmer každý štát. Aj v prípade vzniku samostatnej Slovenskej republiky sa ústavodarcovia rozhodli zaradiť medzi úvodné ustanovenia, ktoré by mali tvoriť jadro ústavy, že Slovenská republika je právny štát. Pre dosiahnutie ideálu právneho štátu je však okrem vyhlásenia potrebné prijať aj opatrenia, ktoré sú nevyhnutné pre nezávislé súdnictvo, demokraciu, efektívne uplatňovanie ľudských práv, deľbu moci a mnoho ďalších, ako elementy, ktoré charakterizujú právny štát.

The collection of contributions from the VII. Student Symposium on Commercial Law and Labor Law held on December 5, 2019, at the Faculty of Law of Pavol Jozef Šafárik University in Košice

The theme of this year's symposium provided students with the opportunity to choose between addressing issues related to commercial law or focusing on labor law aspects concerning the position of members of the governing bodies of commercial companies, based on an analysis of legal regulations and case law.

The creative exploration of commercial law questions particularly related to areas such as the manner of acting on behalf of a commercial company, the liability of the de facto statutory body of a commercial company, information obligations of the statutory body towards its shareholders, and the remuneration for serving as a member of the board of directors of a joint-stock company. It also addressed the liability of the statutory body for the insolvency of the company and the enforcement of non-competition clauses concerning managing directors of limited liability companies.

The connection between commercial law and labor law was directed towards a legal analysis of personal data protection related to health and its misuse by members of the governing bodies of commercial companies, as well as the legitimacy of concurrently holding a position (as a member) in a statutory body with an employment relationship, and the legal status of senior employees, particularly concerning their duties and responsibilities for ensuring employee health through creating healthy working conditions.
