This publication is the forth volume of the series of papers pub-lished within the SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence in European and In-ternational Law. The series is a compilation of articles from authors of different partner law faculties in Germany and South Eastern Europe. The Europa-Institut of Saarland University is the leading partner of the SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence in European and International Law, together with the law faculties of the Universities of Belgrade (Serbia), Sarajevo (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Skopje (Macedonia), Tirana (Alba-nia) and Zagreb (Croatia), and the South East European Law School Network. The project is supported and sponsored by the German Ac-ademic Exchange Service (DAAD) as well as the German Federal Min-istry of Education and Research, and aims to promote the outstanding capabilities in research and teaching in the field of European and In-ternational Law. The SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence in European and International Law sets to improve not only the cooperation between Germany and the South East European countries but also the cross-border regional and local cooperation in the areas of teaching and research as well as in the development of common structures and strategies. The Cluster of Excellence seeks to explore new avenues in the transfer of knowledge, as we firmly believe that sharing expertise and experiences will strengthen the profile of each partner and the network as a whole. To this end, the Cluster implements various measures and activities aspiring to achieve the set goals: eLearning modules, a model curricu-lum, a graduate school, a number of research projects, summer schools, library cooperation and various publications. This collection of papers is purported to serve as a forum for aca-demic staff and young academics of the partner faculties in the SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence to publish their research results on relevant questions in European and International Law. In addition to the tradi-tional areas of law, specific areas of interest include: the integration of SEE countries in the European Union, issues of legal reform and im-plementation of the acquis, best practices in legal reform, and ap- Preface 6 proximation of legislation in the region of South Eastern Europe and the EU. The series is published on a yearly basis and is peer-reviewed by the Editorial Board. The SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence in European and International Law • Series of Papers 2018 encompasses six papers from academic staff and junior researchers from the law faculties in Rijeka, Saar-brücken, Skopje and Tirana. This issue covers a broad variety of topics and illustrates the wide range of subjects connected to European and International Law. Particular topics in this volume discuss various civil, criminal and human rights law issues from a European perspec-tive, including harmonisation of anti-money laundering legislation, implementation of data protection law and challenges to fundamen-tal rights in multireligious societies, to name a few. We thank the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research for their financial support. We owe a special thanks to all authors for their contributions as well as to Ass. iur. Mareike Fröhlich LL.M., and Corina Vodă LL.M. who made this book possible. We are confident that the SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence in Euro-pean and International Law • Series of Papers will provoke greater interest in European and International Law and contribute to the achievement of the goals of the SEE | EU Cluster of Excellence in European and International Law.weiterlesen
