Multi-Actor Human Rights Protection at the International Criminal Court
Conversations about the involvement of States in the workings of the International Criminal Court often focus on the role of State cooperation in enabling the ICC to carry out criminal trials. However, there is a dimension to this cooperation that is underexplored. Whenever the ICC relies on the assistance of States, or States otherwise become involved in its functioning, the human rights of accused and witnesses involved in proceedings may be adversely affected. The simultaneous involvement of the ICC, ICC States Parties, and the ICC host State - whilst essential and unavoidable - can insert ambiguity and uncertainty into the protection of individuals, leaving the door open for human rights violations. This book explores this phenomenon of multi-actor human rights protection at the ICC. By setting out the relevant obligations of the different actors, the book highlights potential problems in human rights protection and proposes ways to mitigate them.

Čarovný papagáj a iné gýče
Čarovný papagáj a iné gýče je zbierka ôsmich poviedok. Okrem typických autorových textov sú súčasťou zbierky aj iné zvláštne poviedky. Niektoré akoby tvorili voľné série, ale nie sú radené za sebou. Jednu z týchto sérií tvoria tri veselé nezáväzné poviedky o netalentovanom spisovateľovi Kúcanskom, hrdinovi našich socialistických i postsocialistických čias. V knihe nájdete texty, v ktorých je Vilikovský osobnejší, s ambíciou dopátrať sa zmyslu a citu v situáciách, kde očividne absentujú. V roku 2006 v prvom ročníku ceny Anasoft litera Pavel Vilikovský za túto knihu získal hlavnú cenu.

Román Štefana Horáka balancuje na pomezí beletrie a žánru true crime – soustředí se na vnitřní svět dospívajícího chlapce, který se postupně propadá do násilí. Kniha není rekonstrukcí zločinů spartakiádního vraha, ale ponorem do jeho myšlení: do jeho osamění, fantazií, potlačeného hněvu i pokřiveného vnímání reality. Na pozadí normalizační společnosti sleduje, jak se rodí temnota v hlavě člověka, který zůstává pro své okolí zcela neviditelný — až do chvíle, kdy už je příliš pozdě.

Tsundoku
An ode to the quiet joy of collecting more books than we could ever possibly read - and loving them all the same...
Drawing on the evocative Japanese term tsundoku - first coined in the Meiji era to describe the growing stacks of unread books that accumulate around devoted readers - this insightful and warmly humorous book reframes what some might see as clutter or guilt as a deeply meaningful way of living.
From the tactile pleasure of flipping through pages to the quiet ritual of rearranging overflowing shelves, Tsundoku explores the psychology, culture, and poetry behind the irresistible urge to collect and cherish books. It offers meditations on the joy of choosing and buying books, the rebellion against reading lists, creative ways to organise your shelves, foolproof excuses for sneaking in yet another new title, techniques for remembering what you've read, and the guilty - but glorious - pleasure of re-reading.
Above all, this philosophy reminds us that we do not necessarily have to have read all the books we own to love them unconditionally. Feelings of guilt, be gone! Unread books can be even more fascinating because they take us on wonderful journeys, and speak to us regardless, whether we open them or keep them closed. We know that books are a cure for the soul: just touching one, smelling one, or leafing through one makes us feel better immediately.
