- Introduction to the handbook on migration and human rightsPublication . Marín, Ruth Rubio; Estrada-Tanck, Dorothy; Queiroz, Benedita Menezes; Staiano, FulviaThe Handbook on Migration and Human Rights aims to critically examine the human rights challenges faced by migrants and refugees globally. By deconstructing the dominant crisis narrative, the contributions offer a nuanced, intersectional and interdisciplinary perspective on migration governance. The book is divided into three parts, covering: crises in migration governance, the rule of law and the management of refugee flows; challenges faced by states and supranational institutions in addressing diversity; and socio-economic, health and environmental crises. The book adopts innovative global and local governance approaches to address these challenges and proposes just and equitable policies that uphold the human dignity and rights of all migrants.
- Women, business and the law 2018Publication . Carvalho, Catarina de OliveiraHow can governments ensure that women have the same employment and entrepreneurship opportunities as men? One important step is to level the legal playing field so that the rules for operating in the worlds of work and business apply equally regardless of gender. Women, Business and the Law 2018, the fifth edition in a series, examines laws affecting women’s economic inclusion in 189 economies worldwide. It tracks progress that has been made over the past two years while identifying opportunities for reform to ensure economic empowerment for all. The report updates all indicators as of June 1, 2017 and explores new areas of research, including financial inclusion.
- Deep sea mining vs. underwater cultural heritagePublication . Ermida, Maria PenaThis chapter seeks to provide an overview of the legal framework surrounding the protection of UCH as a part of the Marine Environment within the context of Law of the Sea, focusing particularly on the rules regarding deep sea mining. The text seeks to analyse how such an activity may be considered compatible, or not with the protection of the marine environment and in particular how underwater cultural heritage may be addressed within such a context.
- Residence for corporate income tax purposes: general ReportPublication . Nogueira, JoãoResidence is one of the most fundamental legal concepts for taxation. This general report aims to provide a better understanding of the function, meaning and role performed by the concept in modern corporate income tax systems. A comprehensive assessment of the branch reports reveals a complex normative landscape shaped by globalisation and digitalisation and evolving legal concepts under a mist of indeterminacy. Regarding domestic law, there is considerable diversity, with divergent jurisdictional approaches, encompassing the interplay of incorporation, governance and other criteria and with a clear trend of expanding the scope of the concept. At the income tax treaty level, while most treaties still adhere to place of effective management as a tie-breaker, there is a progressive shift to the mutual agreement procedure (hereinafter MAP), which should be regarded with concern. Such a mechanism, as it prevents taxpayers from anticipating the tax consequences of their (often genuine and needed) behaviour, is particularly worrisome, taking into account that residence is often a trigger for worldwide taxation. The general report underscores the need for enhanced international cooperation and legislative reforms to address the challenges emphasised by globalisation and digitalisation, advocating for a nuanced balance between sovereignty and global tax fairness.
