Over the last decades, private international law has become the target of intense codification efforts. Inspired by the stimulating initiatives taken by some European countries, by the Brussels Convention and the Rome Convention, numerous countries in other regions of the world started to enact comprehensive legislation in the field. Among them are Taiwan and mainland China. Both adopted statutes on private international law in 2010. In light of the rising significance of the mutual economic and societal relations between the jurisdictions involved and of the legal innovations laid down in the

Social insurance thrives, among other things, on the involvement of employers. This cooperation has remained important to the present day. In fact, in some Western European countries, employers are duty bound more than before, for example in cases of work accidents or continued payments of wages in the event of sickness. In the USSR, “employers“ were in a different position from the outset: their companies were state-owned and therefore, administrative state duties in the field of social security could be delegated to them at any time. The purpose of these conference proceedings is to investigate how the role of the Russian employer in the social security system has changed compared to the situation during the USSR era. Which legal liability is ascribed to employers today? Does the enforcement of employees’ entitlements to social benefits depend on the fulfilment of employers’ obligations in the fields of social insurance and occupational safety law? The answer to these questions contributes fundamentally to the understanding of Russian social security law. An analysis of the main aspects of the topic is given from a Russian point of view and subsequently summarised and expanded upon from a German point of view.

This volume gathers together 25 essays dedicated to the history of four important constitutional experiments (France, Belgium, Switzerland and Italy). While it considers these experiments and developments in the 19th and 20th centuries, comparative constitutional history, nevertheless, offers the possibility of obtaining a wider purview. It is in this sense that we can speak of the myth of the English constitution pervading the discourses and language of the French liberals, of Belgium being referred to as “Little England” in Italy, and the Modell Deutschland as increasingly becoming an object of fascination for Italian scholars of public law. In the 1830s Alexis de Tocqueville analysed the situation in Switzerland and compared the different kinds of federalism present in America and in Europe. A European comparative constitutional history, taking up a global perspective, can help us to better decipher two very important issues pertinent to our times: first, for assessing the identity and the constitutional substance of a living common core of the European constitutional traditions; and second, for considering constitutional history as a useful tool to address different levels of global constitutionalism and new trends of governance. History & Constitution offers not only insights into the past, but also provides some guidelines for the future.
