Eigentumsrecht Und Enteignungsunrecht: Analysen Und Beitrage Zur Vergangenheitsbewaltigung, Teil 1

The injustice of the expropriations and confiscations made in order to expel a population after the Second World War weigh upon the European laws on property. Mainly in the former states of the Warsaw Pact the objectives of the compensations have not completely been reached. However, the political and juridical dialogue is up. There is a series of examples providing that the re-establishment of law is possible.
The symposia of the Study group for politics and international law dealt with that issue in autumn 2006 and spring 2008. The relevant questions regarding the protection of property, expropriation and restitution were discussed by German and foreign specialists from the national and international public law point of view. This volume is the first to publish the reports given in 2006.
