Reviewed proceedings of scientific papers of Conference of Slovak and Czech law romanists, which take place at May, 10.-11.5.2018, at Faculty of Law, UPJŠ in Košice.

The submitted reviewed proceeding of scientific papers on „The loan or usury? Compulsory enforcement of roman - law basics and problems of application practice.”  is prepared within the solution of the grant project VEGA on: „The loan or usury? Compulsory enforcement of historical - law basics and problems of application practice.”, no. p. 1/0198/17.

The authors of papers are important personalities of Roman law working in the Slovak and Czech Republic, as well as PhD students and young scientists from Slovak and foreign universities who are active in the academic environment as well as in legal practice. The main goal of the editors is to help improve the current legal situation, which is assessed as unsatisfactory, and through a historical excursion of the development of the loan institute and then the forced execution of the decision, to create de lege ferenda proposals considering all areas of research.

The Proceedings trace the interrelationships between the substantive law institute in terms of the Roman law of contractus unilaterales - mutuum in its various types, often realized by the attachment of high interest rates, which bordered on the insurrection and the procedural law of individual lawsuits enforced in the legislative, formular and cognitive process. If there was no possibility to impose certain behaviour on the obligated person (the debtor, the sentenced person), then the declared general obligation to enforce the legal norms was only a legal term. It has always been the case that every internally well-organized state, whether antique or present, has to use power tools - often with the use of gross violence - but within the limits of the law, to promote what it has declared valid law. It must protect creditors on the one hand, but it must also prevent self-help and the use of illegal, unjustified and disproportionate violence.

The loan contract as a real contract has often become an integral part and relatively the most frequent reason leading to the compulsory enforcement, especially when contracting parties often agree on the connection of interest - sometimes within the legal limit, sometimes exceeding the legal framework - and in this way the potential future creditor (the plaintiff) significantly increased the insolvency risk of the debtor (the defendant, the sentenced) and of the subsequent execution. The pronounced and deepening social stratification of the Roman population and the secondary depreciation effort, the cancellation of the debts of the poor part of the population logically culminated in social unrest and revolt against the enforcement of the enforcement law.

The proceedings capture not only the rich scientific discussion of Slovak and Czech legal Romanists, but also the opinions, experience and knowledge of experts on contemporary law dealing with this type of issues. As a result, it provides a unique interdisciplinary view of the subject and raises many stimulus points for future research. This work proves that the problems encountered by the various representatives of the Roman jurisprudence and their legal and theoretical bases and solutions are undoubtedly useful and serve as a guideline also for solving legal issues in the field of modern enforcement proceedings.

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.

Issues of punishment are directly linked to a state’s criminal policy, which is an inseparable part of its social policy. Historically, the state has held a unique dominant position in the realm of punishment. Once the conditions for imposing a penalty are met, the state fulfills its obligation by sentencing through independent courts. However, it does not address questions of satisfaction, which belong to the victim. The victim may be a specific physical person or legal entity that suffered harm due to the criminal act. This harm simultaneously affects civil society as a whole. The state prioritizes its duty to punish and decide on the matter over compensating the harmed individual or civil society.

By mediation in criminal cases, we mean extrajudicial facilitation of resolving disputes between the offender and the harmed party, with the assistance and personal participation of a mediator. The mediator, as an independent and impartial person, helps parties identify their interests and supports them in finding shared, practical, and realistic solutions to the points causing their conflict. Probation refers to monitoring, supervising the accused, defendant, or convicted individual, as well as providing individual assistance to the offender and encouraging them to lead a lawful life. This reduces the risk of recidivism, or repeated criminal behavior.

Preložená vysokoškolská učebnica je venovaná problematike trestného práva procesného, ktorú autori v rovnakom zložení spracovali v roku 2006, bezprostredne po účinnosti nového rekodifikovaného Tr. por. – zák. č. 301/2005 Z.z. Obdobie, ktoré uplynulo od účinnosti tejto právnej normy nepochybne prispelo k potvrdeniu či ustáleniu názorov na niektoré nové inštitúty a súčasne si vyžiadalo potrebu reagovať na početné novelizácie tohto zákona.

Štruktúra predloženej publikácie, členenie do jednotlivých kapitol, v podstate korešponduje s úpravou jednotlivých inštitútov obsiahnutých v Tr. poriadku, a to od úpravy základných pojmov, prameňov, zásad trestného konania, cez postavenie jednotlivých subjektov trestného konania, procesné úkony, inštitúty zaisťovacej povahy a dôkaznej povahy, jednotlivé štádia trestného konania až po úpravu právneho styku s cudzinou, resp. trov trestného konania. Ako už bolo uvedené, autori reagujú na pomerne časté a v mnohých prípadoch aj výrazné zmeny úpravy rekodofikovaného Tr. poriadku, vrátane súvisiacich právnych predpisov, prezentujú svoje názory i názory mnohých iných odborníkov na spracovanú problematiku a tieto konfrontujú s poznatkami z praxe, vrátane uvádzania aktuálnej iudikatúry.

Ambíciou autorov tak bolo a naďalej zostáva, ponúknuť predovšetkým študentom právnických fakúlt základnú učebnú pomôcku pre štúdium trestného práva procesného.

Vysokoškolská učebnica Trestné právo hmotné. Osobitná časť, 2. aktualizované vydanie bezprostredne nadväzuje na učebnicu Trestné právo hmotné. Všeobecná časť, 2. aktualizované vydanie. Autorský kolektív rozoberá skutkové podstaty trestných činov zahrnuté do dvanástich hláv. Autori si za cieľ stanovili poskytnúť čitateľom podrobný prehľad o jednotlivých trestných činoch a zároveň poskytnúť čo najpodrobnejší výklad jednotlivých skutkových podstát týchto trestných činov, ako aj výklad pojmov v nich sa nachádzajúcich. Obsah jednotlivých kapitol vychádza zo systematiky osobitnej časti Trestného zákona, čím sa študenti, ako aj ostatná právnická verejnosť môžu lepšie orientovať v základných trestno-hmotných inštitútoch. V jednotlivých kapitolách sú zrozumiteľne a jasne vymedzené jednotlivé obligatórne znaky skutkových podstát trestných činov a ich súvislosti. Tam, kde je to potrebné, autori uvádzajú na vysvetlenie svoje teoretické a praktické skúsenosti, v prípade bližšieho vysvetlenia aj aktuálnu súdnu prax. V rámci každej hlavy je uvedená všeobecná charakteristika príslušnej hlavy a dielu, do ktorého sa subsumuje konkrétny trestný čin. Učebnica je určená predovšetkým poslucháčom právnických fakúlt a Akadémie Policajného zboru. Učebnicu však môžu využívať aj sudcovia, prokurátori, policajti, advokáti, vyšší súdni úradníci, čakatelia prokuratúry, advokátski koncipienti pri rozbore a zdôvodnení mnohých ustanovení osobitnej časti Trestného zákona. Kniha je určená aj pre široký okruh záujemcov o trestné právo.

Učebnicu Trestné právo procesné, 4. prepracované a doplnené vydanie, napísal autorský kolektív zložený z pracovníkov Katedry trestného práva a kriminológie Právnickej fakulty Trnavskej univerzity v Trnave a Katedry trestného práva Univerzity Komenského v Bratislave. Učebnica je určená predovšetkým študentom právnických fakúlt ako základný študijný materiál ku skúškam a neskôr k výkonu právnických povolaní. Obsah učebnice si nenárokuje prezentáciu úplne všetkých poznatkov trestného práva procesného, je skôr účelovo usporiadaný tak, aby zodpovedal požiadavkám vysokoškolskej prípravy právnikov a aby zabezpečil osvojenie si komplexných poznatkov o jednotlivých inštitútoch a štádiách trestného konania. Autori v učebnici zároveň reagujú aj na nedávne početné legislatívne zmeny v predmetnej oblasti. Jej využitie je preto možné aj v justičnej praxi a môže byť kvalitným zdrojom informácií aj pre sudcov, prokurátorov, policajtov, advokátov a všetkých tých, ktorí sa tou či onou mierou podieľajú na trestnom konaní u nás. Text učebnice je totiž vedený úprimnou snahou autorov poskytnúť všetkým záujemcom kvalitné a aktuálne informácie, ktoré by im mohli pomôcť zvládnuť náročné štúdium a orientáciu v oblasti trestného práva procesného.

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.

Proceedings of Papers of XVIth year of the student symposium of the Institute of International Law and European Law is devoted to selected aspects of the place and role of criminal law from the point of view of contemporary EU law and international law. In their contributions, students deal with current topics of criminal law in the law of the European Union and international law. In the EU law, the most actual issue is the European Public Prosecutor's Office, a body of the EU responsible for investigateing and prosecuting criminal offenses affecting the Union's financial interests. The first part of papers dealt with the reasons for the establishment of the European Public Prosecutor's Office, its structure and tasks, the issue of conducting the investigation of the European Public Prosecutor's Office in the conditions of the Slovak Republic, as well as with the relations of the European Public Prosecutor's Office with its closest partner, the European Anti-Fraud Office. The second part of the contributions reflects current issues and challenges of criminal law in international law. Authors in their papers focused on the issue of the International Criminal Tribunal for Ukraine, the legal problems and challenges associated with its creation, on the issue of the crime of aggression before the International Criminal Court, as well as on issues of immunity of state representatives before national courts.

Collection of scientific works

The year 2020 has been marked globally by an unprecedented situation related to the spread of Covid-19 since its beginning. At the start of this calendar year, as our organizational team began preparing for another edition, we still hoped that our traditional autumn conference was far away, and in this maximum optimism, we launched the organization of the jubilee 10th edition of our now-traditional conference. This conference has become a stable part of scientific and professional conference events under domestic conditions and has become a stable part of many people's work programs. However, 2020 was almost entirely filled with restrictions from its start, with these restrictions affecting even the organization of conferences. Our 10th Law – Business – Economy Conference fell victim to this current situation and had to be canceled "with gritted teeth." The situation allows us nothing but hope that in 2021 we will be able to meet at our traditional location in High Tatras. We take these meetings for granted; if this situation is good for nothing else, it at least serves as a slowdown and an awareness of our own vulnerability.

See you at the next edition of Law-Business-Economics in October 2021.

You are receiving a collection of scientific papers published in connection with the resolution of scientific projects at the Department of Commercial Law and Economic Law as the main organizer of the scientific conference, as well as other departments of the Faculty of Law at UPJŠ in Košice, and many academic workplaces both domestically and abroad. The collection is published with support from the Agency for Support of Research and Development. The editors thank all who contributed to it with their scientific articles, as well as reviewers for their valuable comments and recommendations.

Issues of punishment are directly linked to a state’s criminal policy, which is an inseparable part of its social policy. Historically, the state has held a unique dominant position in the realm of punishment. Once the conditions for imposing a penalty are met, the state fulfills its obligation by sentencing through independent courts. However, it does not address questions of satisfaction, which belong to the victim. The victim may be a specific physical person or legal entity that suffered harm due to the criminal act. This harm simultaneously affects civil society as a whole. The state prioritizes its duty to punish and decide on the matter over compensating the harmed individual or civil society.

By mediation in criminal cases, we mean extrajudicial facilitation of resolving disputes between the offender and the harmed party, with the assistance and personal participation of a mediator. The mediator, as an independent and impartial person, helps parties identify their interests and supports them in finding shared, practical, and realistic solutions to the points causing their conflict. Probation refers to monitoring, supervising the accused, defendant, or convicted individual, as well as providing individual assistance to the offender and encouraging them to lead a lawful life. This reduces the risk of recidivism, or repeated criminal behavior.
