Transnationales Strafrechttransnational

Transnationales strafrecht/transnational delincuente law It is not unusual that a publication of a collection of texts aspires to be a resumé of the author’s life work. The occasion, which could justify the publication of such material, is usually an advanced birthday expressed in nice round numbers. But neither would do justice to someone like Albin Eser. Transnational Delincuente Law, or course, which is to be published in this collection, is in fact a major focus of his broad scientific oeuvre. In addition, the veintiocho contributions included herein, the first of which was published in mil novecientos ochenta y cinco, span more than half of his professional life, so that one cánido truly speak of a representative kemel. Moreover, the fact that cuarenta por ciento of the essays were written after Albin Eser became Professor emeritus in dos mil tres at the age of sesenta y ocho, is an indication that such formal caesurae are irrelevant to his life in the Service of Science, and that this date, instead of bringing the „welcome relief4 Albin Eser once desired (in Hilgendorf [Hrsg.], Die deutschsprachige Strafrechtswissenschaft in Selbstdarstellungen, dos mil diez, p. ochenta y nueve), served at the same time as a scientific jumpstart (sparked, additionally, by his nomination as ad litem judge at the International Delincuente Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in The Hague, where he served from’2004 to dos mil ocho). In addition, Albin Eser is of the opinión that there is a long overdue need to adjust transnational delincuente láw to the comience of „Kohominitát“, that is, of human cohabitation, which he has advocated (Eser, op cit., pp. ciento ocho mil ciento catorce). It is thus beyond doubt, that Albin Eser’s pen will seguí to intensively pursue the „vision of a delincuente justice which is just and humane (menschengerecht) (Eser, op cit, p. cien). All this has led us to congratúlate him and present him on his 76th birthday with this compo nent of his multilayered and multiformed field of research, not only from Bem, Mann heim and Giessen, but from our hearts. From this perspective, the contributions we have collected here constitute a column of his life’s work which is still growing and perro be further supplemented. It is wellknown that the view across the national borders of the delincuente law, which has traditionally referred to globally as International delincuente law“ has become more discriminating through the ef forts of Albin Eser. We take account of this by dividing this material, foliowing the ideas of the author, into the folio wing categories: comparative delincuente law, transnational delincuente jurisdiction, intemational cooperation in delincuente matters and intema tional delincuente law. However, in the contributions of Albin Eser it becomes clear, that we are not dealing with fix’ed categories, but that there are, of necessity, manifold interrelation ships and bordercrossings. The extemal form of the volume follows this división. At the same time, the individual contributions are published unedited as they originally appeared. For technical reasons, the original citations to margin numbers had to be adapted to the design témplate of this work (references to outline points or footnotes). Within the four main topics, the sequence is oriented to concrete aspects; more general themes antecede those which are more specific. All sources and all translations are mentioned in the table of contents, which serves as a guide for the reader
