Best.-Nr. B9781509945184Paperback / softback. New. This book analyses the impact of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities CRPD on EU non-discrimination law and governance. The CRPD places the protection of persons with disabilities at the heart of international human rights law. The Convention is the first human rights treaty open for signatures by regional organisations and the European Union favourably acceded to it in December 2010. Ten years after this historic event this book explores whether the theory has been put into practice and examines the effects of the CRPD on EU non-discrimination law and governance. This book brings together the practices of the European Court of Justice CJEU with regard to disability discrimination to show whether the CRPD is living up to its full potential to substantially improve the protection of the rights of persons with disabilities in the EU. It examines whether the judicial interpretation of the Directive 2000/78/EC establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation does or does not comply with the new legal background delineated by the CRPD. In addition it investigates whether the governance mechanisms underlying the EU Framework for promoting protecting and monitoring the CRPD are effectively fostering the implementation of the CRPD and the role of civil society. The prohibition of discrimination on grounds of disability has undergone substantial changes and developments since it was first introduced under international and EU law. This book highlights the main changes to disability discrimination which have occurred in the EU legal order in the last ten years. The book will be of interest to academics law students and legal practitioners working in the field of EU non-discrimination and equality law. paperback

1935Best.-Nr. 7180Minneapolis 1935. 7 typewritten pages with manuscript edits and 6 holograph pages recto only in pencil in Wandrei's hand. Light edge wear and a few smudges to the typed pages few corner bends and edge chips to the handwritten pages but generally very good. An interesting manuscript from Donald Wandrei of the Weird Tales Circle being an unfinished screenplay based on his story "The Monster from Nowhere." The tale was first published in Munsey's Argosy November 23 1935 and later was collected in The Eye and the Finger published by Arhkam House in 1944. This script consists of about a dozen scenes mostly detailing the shots scenery and characters with a bit of dialogue and lines for a narrator. The manuscript pages are quite descriptive especially in detailing the nightmarish scene where a dead body floats down the road propelled by an unseen force. This theme of existential horror and the blurring of real and unreal are typical of the Weird Tales genre and it is a shame this screenplay was neither finished nor produced. We find manuscript material from Wandrei to be quite scarce. An excellent item from the Lovecraft circle. . unknown
