Law3.21 KB

Circumstances Precluding Wrongfulness

In principle, the unlawful conduct of a State is not considered wrongful if there are causes that preclude the wrongfulness of the act.

State Consent

The wrongfulness of an act does not constitute an internationally wrongful act if the injured State gives its consent to this behavior. This is provided that the requirements for valid consent are met, or there is an agreement which clearly states that the consent is attributable to the State.

Countermeasures

Behavior will not be considered illegal in principle when it is a legitimate action, according to International Law (DI), to react to an act committed by another State. These actions are considered penalties or countermeasures.

Force Majeure and Fortuitous

Understanding Free Consent and Contract Discharge

Law3.27 KB

Free Consent

Free Consent, as defined in Section 13, occurs when "two or more persons agree upon the same thing and in the same sense."

For example, if A agrees to sell his car to B, but A intends to sell his Maruti while B believes he is buying A's Honda, there is no consent because they haven't agreed on the same thing in the same sense. Consequently, there is no contract.

Section 14 states that consent is considered free when it is not caused or affected by the following:

  • Coercion
  • Undue Influence
  • Fraud
  • Misrepresentation
  • Mistake

Coercion (Section 15)

Coercion involves using force or threats to compel a person to enter into a contract. The consent obtained under coercion is not free.

Undue Influence (Section 16)

Undue influence occurs when one party,...

Business Succession and Subcontracting Liability Under Spanish Law

Law2.68 KB

Business Succession and Article 44

Article 44 states: "There shall be regarded as business succession when the transmission affects an economic entity which retains its identity, meaning an organized grouping of resources to carry out an economic activity, essential or ancillary." Essentially, what determines the applicability of this article is the transmission of a set (more or less, total or partial) of elements organized for production and productivity.

Causes of Business Transmission

The cause of transmission is indifferent. Article 44 speaks in very broad terms of a "change of ownership of whatever cause or motive." It may, therefore, be a sale, assignment, exchange, or corporate merger.

Effects of Transmission on Workers

The new employer...

International Law Integration and Application in Spanish Legal System

Law3.6 KB

International Standards in Domestic Law

This section examines the theoretical approaches to integrating international standards into a nation's legal system and details the specific framework within Spanish law.

Theoretical Approaches to Treaty Integration

  • Dualistic Systems (e.g., Great Britain): Require internal approval. The treaty's scope is determined by the domestic law that incorporates it. In these systems, a later treaty can repeal a previous law, and a law enacted after an earlier treaty can also repeal it.
  • Principle of Competition: Certain matters governed by international treaties would fall outside the scope of domestic rules. This acts as a reserve, preventing potential incompatibilities.
  • Hierarchy of Norms: Establishes a clear hierarchy,
