The Compatibility of Anti-Abuse Provisions in Tax Treaties with EC Law (Eucotax Series on European Taxation, 1)
P. Essers Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 9041196781 |
Book Description
The impact of the European Community (EC) and EC law on taxation is becoming increasingly important. EC law influences not only national tax law but also tax treaties. This book focuses on the question of whether anti-abuse provisions in tax treaties conflict with EC law, especially with the fundamental freedoms contained in the EC Treaty. The Compatibility of Anti-Abuse Provisions in Tax Treaties with EC Law deals with this issue from the perspective of Austria, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Though most problems arise with regard to the limitation on benefits clauses contained in the tax treaties concluded between EC member states and the United States, the book also addresses the compatibility with EC law of other anti-abuse clauses and assesses the consequences of a possible conflict. This title is published in association with EUCOTAX (European Universities Cooperating on Taxes), a network of fiscal institutes of several European universities which initiates and coordinates both comparative education and comparative research on taxation. Its projects and programs include winter courses, guest lectures, joint research projects, international conferences, and the exchange of researchers from various countries.

Exclusive Rights and State Monopolies under EC Law: Article 86 (former Article 90) of the EC Treaty
Jose Luis Buendia Sierra Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 019829820X |
Book Description
The understanding of Article 86 (formerly Article 90) of the EC Treaty is vital to any competition lawyer working in Europe. Writing with first-hand experience of dealing with Article 86 cases at DG IV, the author provides the first such detailed examination of this Article and the law concerning exclusive rights and State monopolies. Clearly written, with penetrating analysis of the relevant case-law, this study pays attention to all the key areas including: the definition of 'exclusive rights' and 'economic activities', the remedial possibilities offered by the often neglected Article 31(formerly Article 37), the application of Article 86(1) in conjunction with the competition rules (Article 82 (formerly Article 86)), proportionality in the context of Article 86(2) and decisions and directives under Article 86(3) and their relationship with harmonization directives. With practical insights and intelligent solutions to many of the problems posed by the applications of these rules, Exclusive Rights and State Monopolies under EC Law will become an indispensible work for all practitioners in this field.

Free Movement of Persons within the European Community (European Monographs, Volume 30)
Friedl Weiss Manufacturer: Kluwer Law International ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 9041117083 |
Book Description
Arguably, the most important element in any system of economic integration is the freedom of movement of persons. In this as in other initiatives, the European Community has taken the lead, and emerging economic unions and common markets elsewhere in the world take full cognizance of the EC's successes and failures as this fundamental right has developed under European law. The present volume provides a comprehensive overview of this body of law, encompassing doctrinal basis, institutional framework, legal compliance, judicial development, and derogation on such grounds as security and health. The authors, both well-known experts in the field, comment extensively on matters including visas, free movement of workers, freedom of establishment for companies, posted workers, harmonisation of professional qualifications, European citizenship, freedom to provide and receive services, agreements between the European Community and other states concerning free movement, the rights of third country nationals (especially their position under the EURODAC regulation), and the rights of families and individuals to housing and education. In addition to providing analysis of the relevant provisions of the European Community Treaty as amended by subsequent treaties including the Treaties of Amsterdam and Nice, the book takes considerable account of all relevant secondary legislation and sometimes soft law, for example draft treaties, resolutions, and draft legislation. The authors also consider what obstacles remain to this freedom, and what future developments might take place in this area of Community law. Free Movement of Persons Within the European Community will be of great value to legal practitioners, officials of the EC and other economic unions, and postgraduate and undergraduate students, as well as the wider public interested in the process of European integration.

The next time you meet him just ask Whitefoot if this isn't so. Things had been going very wrong for Whitefoot. It had begun to look to Whitefoot as if he would no longer have a snug, hidden little home in Farmer Brown's sugar-house. The pile of wood under which he had made that snug little home was disappearing so fast that it began to look as if in a little while there would be no wood at all.
