The Hungarian Yearbook of International Law and European Law comprises a collection of articles written mainly by Hungarian authors, covering developments in the field of international law and EU law, and progress in the domestic implementation and application of these fields of law.

AI systems have the capacity to act in a way that can generally be considered as 'criminal' by society. Yet, it can be argued that they lack (criminal) agency - and the feeling of it. In the future, however, humans might develop expectations of norm-conforming behavior from machines. Criminal law might not be the right answer for AI-related harm, even though holding AI systems directly liable could be useful - to a certain extent. This book explores the issue of criminal responsibility of AI systems by focusing on whether such legal framework would be needed and feasible. It aims to understand how to deal with the (apparent) conflict between AI and the most classical notions of criminal law. The occurrence of AI is not the first time that criminal law theory has had to deal with new scientific developments. Nevertheless, the debate on criminal liability of AI systems is somewhat different: it is deeply introspective. In other words, discussing the liability of new artificial agents brings about pioneering perspectives on the liability of human agents. As such, this book poses questions that find their answers in one's own beliefs on what is human and what is not, and, ultimately, on what is right and what is wrong.

In her inaugural lecture of 9 June 2023 Prof. Dr. Franziska Weber delved into the conundrum of sharing others' data: By sharing our personal data we also share - directly and indirectly - information about others. In some situations we are aware of this, in others less so. Weber outlines the social problems this entails with a special focus on negative data externalities. She then illustrates data valuation challenges and presents experimental insights which counter the claim that the sharing individuals are oblivious to the externality they create. She ends with some recommendations on how some fine-tuning of the current legal regime can improve incentives and outcomes on data markets by bringing them more in line with citizens' preferences. It is striking that the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is tailored to individual data subjects and largely neglects the interdependent notion of data. To improve the GDPR a stronger consideration of the other needs to implemented, be it when consenting, in the context of legitimate interests or other data processing grounds. It is, furthermore, desirable to reduce the processing of allegedly anonymous data which falls outside the scope of the GDPR.

Minors can be involved in judicial proceedings of a different Member State when they have - allegedly - committed an offence within the EU. Whereas the EU has developed instruments to facilitate cooperation between Member States in criminal matters, no specific instruments exist to deal with cross-border youth justice cases. This book assesses to what extent it is possible and feasible to develop EU cooperation in youth justice matters. In EU youth justice: The personal scope of EU criminal law and the diversity of youth justice systems, on the one hand the author examines whether youth justice matters fall within the scope of EU judicial cooperation in criminal matters. On the other hand, a thorough legal comparison is carried out between the youth justice systems of Austria, the French Community of Belgium, the Netherlands and Northern Ireland. Their similarities and differences are evaluated in terms of age limits, specialised actors (police officers, public prosecutors, courts, lawyers, support services and detention institutions), and reactions (diversion, non-custodial and custodial reactions). This book is for anyone interested in foreign youth justice systems, children's rights and EU criminal law. With a foreword by Vincent Van Quickenborne, Belgian Minister of justice.

Sustainability and sustainable development are amongst the largest and most complex challenges for the 21st century. This is not just a matter for states and governments, but rather a common goal to which we should all contribute. Are the rules of private law suitable to contribute to sustainable solutions? The authors in this book explore aspects of property law, tort law, and contract law. They investigate whether the current rules of private law provide sufficient incentives and possibilities for sustainable action, or whether these rules require reform. This research is part of a joint research project of the Maastricht European Private Law Institute (M-EPLI), in which researchers from various fields work together on large societal issues. Through seminars, discussions and joint research, M-EPLI researchers aim to cross boundaries between their respective fields and contribute to solving large societal challenges.

This book offers a range of perspectives on European integration from different scientific disciplines. It aims to give its readers the opportunity to look at European integration from various scientific angles, such as history, political science, philosophy of science, economics, legal theory, social ontology, and evolutionary psychology.By bringing together these disciplines, European Integration: A Theme hopes to contribute to the education of scientists who are able to place topics like European integration in a wider context and consider it from numerous perspectives. European Integration: A Theme takes this approach because European integration is a topic that can be given content from these several angles and about which several scientific disciplines have something to say. Also - and more importantly - it takes this approach because in an increasingly globalized and complex world, it is important to educate scientists who are able to address these complexities from more than one perspective.
