SCHOOL OF LAW
2018
YEAR-IN-REVIEW
UNIVERSITY OF NICOSIA
INTRODUCTION BY THE DEAN, PROF. DR ACHILLES C. EMILIANIDES This year-in-review of the School of Law of the University of Nicosia covers some of the main activities of the School during 2018. The School houses two departments, the Department of Law and the Department of Politics and Governance and accordingly this newsletter refers to the three pillars of the School: law, politics and governance. The School of Law is one of the most active in the region, as shown also by the sample of events detailed in this newsletter, offering its graduates specialized knowledge and skills in handling difficult situations and resolving practical day-to-day problems. We offer a wide range of programs at LLB/BA, LLM/ MA and PhD level. Most of our Master programs are offered not only in conventional form, but also in Distance Learning (DL) and both in Greek and English. We have further heavily engaged in international cooperation with joint and dual degrees offered in cooperation with leading universities. The Department of Law offers an LLB with three distinct routes: (1) an English law, English language LLB, (2) a Cypriot Law, Greek language LLB and (3) a Greek law, Greek language LLB. The LLB is unique for accommodating a comparative legal environment and for offering a full range of courses of common law (English law), continental law (Greek law) and mixed law (Cypriot law). The Department of Politics and Governance also offers a well-recognized BA in International Relations and European Studies. At a postgraduate level there is a wide range of options at School 2
level: an LLM with concentration on European Business Law, as well as Human Rights and Criminal Justice, which is offered both in the conventional mode and the distance learning teaching mode, an MA in International Relations and European Studies, which is also offered both in the conventional and distance learning teaching modes, a joint MA in the Law of the Economy and of the Enterprises with the Hellenic Open University which is of-
fered as a distance learning programme, a joint MA in Criminal Law and Addictions with the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki; as well as an MA in Law and Politics in the European Union and an MA in Public Administration, both offered in conventional and distance learning modes, and with the support of the well-known Centre of European Constitutional Law-Tsat-
sos Foundation. At PhD level, the School offers a PhD in Law, a PhD in International Relations and European Studies, a PhD in Public Administration, as well as a joint PhD in Human Rights, Society and Multi-Level Governance with the Universities of Padova, Zagreb and Western Sydney. As former Dean of Yale Law School Anthony Kronman noted, living in the law is beyond learning law - it is about becoming a particular kind of person. Law facilitates the development of right judgment and the advancement of your way of thinking- it enables you to become a better version of yourself in many ways. The same stands true for students studying in the field of politics and governance, fields which by definition are associated with the way we view ourselves and the questions on how to best apply right judgment in difficult situations. We live in an era of liberalization and unprecedented technological change and we need to be as open-minded and innovative as possible in order to address the challenges and opportunities that this presents. In order to stay afloat, our field needs to adapt. We can aim for more jobs, only if we innovate instead of automate, i.e. we should aim to engage in fields previously not thought possible and to adjust our working and educational practices accordingly. Academia cannot disassociate itself from society and this applies even more forcefully when we refer to fields which are by definition linked with the professional world, such as law, politics and governance.

The joint sessions always provide an ideal forum for international scholars to share ideas, to network, and to make new contacts with scholars who share their very specific research interests. Nearly 500 academics joined the conference which is one of the largest of its kind and discussed topics such as immigration, organized crime, Euroscepticism, the financial crisis, digital democracy and others. The local organizing committee was led by Dr. Emilios A. Solomou who noted that this was the second time that the University of Nicosia organized this leading event, a fact which confirms the University’s adherence to excellence.

SELECTED BOOKS BY OUR FACULTY Achilles C. Emilianides, Religion and Law in Cyprus, Kluwer Law International: Hague, 2018, 3rd Ed, (1st Ed., 2011, 2nd Ed., 2014), pp. 256 (published as part of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws Series)
This is the first comprehensive work discussing law and religion in Cyprus. The book assesses the legal framework in which religion is approached, from the principle of religious freedom through the rights and contractual obligations of religious communities, international, transnational and regional law effects, the legal parameters affecting the influence of religion in politics and public life, and the legal position of religion in specific fields, such as church financing, employment law and matrimonial and family law. Some parts of the book have drawn upon and expand on my previous published papers on various aspects of law and religion in Cyprus. Now in its third edition fully updated.
Achilles C. Emilianides, Constitutional Law in Cyprus, Kluwer Law International: Hague, 2018, 2nd Ed, (1st Ed., 2013), pp. 262 (published as part of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws Series)
This is the first comprehensive work publi shed in the English language on Cypriot constitutional law. It contains a discussion of the sources of constitutional law, the organs of the executive, legislative and judiciary, the status of political parties, the doctrine of necessity, the functional separation of powers, the nature of the system and of the state, local administration, and specific issues, such as taxation and treaty making. The volume further contains extensive chapters on constitutional rights and liberties and on Cypriot administrative law and procedure. Some parts build upon and further expand on my previous work published in Greek (especially my 2006 monograph Η Υπέρβαση του Κυπριακού Συντάγματος, which was however mostly concerned with the normative aspects of the Constitution of Cyprus and with Cypriot constitutional history). Now in its second edition fully updated.
Achilles C. Emilianides, Family and Succession Law in Cyprus in Cyprus, Kluwer Law International: Hague, 2018, 2nd Ed., (1st Ed., 2012), pp. 224 (published as part of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws Series)
This monograph provides a detailed expo sition and analysis of the essential elements of law with regard to family relations, marital property, and succession to estates in Cyprus. It further covers the legal rules and customs pertaining to the intertwined civic status of persons, the family and property. The book discusses the sources and instruments of family and succession law, the authorities that adjudicate and administer the laws, and issues surrounding the person as a legal entity and the legal disposition of property among family members. Such matters as nationality, domicile, and residence; marriage, divorce, and cohabitation; adoption and guardianship; succession and inter vivos arrangements; and the acquisition and administration of estates are all treated in depth. Some parts of the book build upon and further expand on my previous work published in Greek (especially my 2006 monograph Το Κυπριακό Δίκαιο του Γάμου και του Διαζυγίου and my 2008 textbook Κυπριακό Κληρονομικό Δίκαιο). Now in its second edition and fully updated.
Achilles C. Emilianides and Christina Ioannou, Labour Law in Cyprus, The Hague: Kluwer, 2018, 2nd Ed., (1st Ed., 2016), pp. 266 (published as part of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws Series)
This monograph on Cyprus not only describes and analyses the legal aspects of labour relations, but also examines labour rela tions practices and developing trends. It provides a survey of the subject that is both usefully brief and sufficiently detailed to answer most questions likely to arise in any pertinent legal setting. Both individual and collective labour relations are covered in ample detail, with attention to such underlying and pervasive factors as employment contracts, suspension of the contracts, dismissal laws and covenant of non-competition, as well as international private law. The authors describe all important details of the law governing hours and wages, benefits, intellectual property implications, trade union activity, employers’ associations, workers’ participation, collective bargaining, industrial disputes, and much more.

Costas Stratilatis and Achilles C. Emilianides, Media Law in Cyprus, Kluwer Law International: The Hague, 2018, 2nd Ed., (1st Ed., 2015), (published as part of the International Encyclopaedia of Laws Series), pp. 246. This is a major work which analyses media law in Cyprus comprehensively for the first time and surveys the massively altered and enlarged legal landscape traditionally encompassed in laws pertaining to freedom of expression and regulation of communications. Everywhere, a shift from mass media to mass self-communication has put enormous pressure on traditional law models. An introduction describing the main actors and salient aspects of media markets is followed by indepth analyses of print media, radio and television broadcasting, the Internet, commercial communications, political advertising, concentration in media markets, and media regulation. Among the topics that arise for discussion are privacy, cultural policy, protection of minors, competition policy, access to digital gateways, protection of journalists’ sources, standardization and interoperability, and liability of intermediaries. Relevant case law is considered throughout, as are various ethical codes. Now in its second edition and fully updated.

Elena Drymiotou, Human Rights, Constitutional Law and Belonging. The Right to Equal Belonging in a Democratic Society, Routledge: New York, 2018, pp. 250. Theories of the right to equal protection of the laws as the right to anti-subordination are the most influential theories on the theory suggested by Drymiotou. Elena Drymiotou suggests understanding the right to equal protection of the laws in terms of belonging. She goes on to identify certain criteria and she offers a general theory of the Right to Democratic Belonging. This book uses political theory, constitutional provisions and case law to suggest this new theory of the right to equal protection of the laws; the theory of the Right to Equal Belonging in a Democratic Society or in other words, the Right to Democratic Belonging. Human Rights and Equal Belonging in a Democratic Society is the starting point of a more comprehensive theory of the right to democratic belonging. It will be of interest both to students at an advanced level, academics and reflective practitioners. It addresses the topics with regard to human rights and equality and will be of interest to researchers, academics, policymakers and students in the fields of human rights law, constitutional law and legal theory.

Όσο εξελίσσεται η ευρωπαϊκή ολοκλήρωση, τα εθνικά δίκαια των κρατών μελών δέχονται κατ’ ανάγκη επιρροές και από το ευρωπαϊκό δίκαιο. Δεν θα πρέπει λοιπόν να προκαλεί ιδιαίτερη έκπληξη ότι και το αστικό δικονομικό δίκαιο έχει παύσει πλέον να αποτελεί έναν κλάδο που περιορίζεται καθαρά σε εθνικό επίπεδο. Η επιρροή αυτή συνίσταται αφενός στη θέσπιση κανονιστικών πράξεων ευρωπαϊκού δικονομικού δικαίου, βάσει των σχετικών νομοθετικών αρμοδιοτήτων της ΕΕ, και αφετέρου στον περιορισμό της εφαρμογής των εθνικών δικονομικών κανόνων, όταν θίγονται οι αρχές της ισοδυναμίας και της αποτελεσματικότητας. Με επίκεντρο τις ευρωπαϊκές επιρροές που δέχεται το ελληνικό δίκαιο της διαιτησίας, η παρούσα μελέτη επιδίωξε να καλύψει αυτό το κενό με την ελπίδα παράλληλα να συνεισφέρει παραγωγικά στην περαιτέρω ανάπτυξη της διαλεκτικής στο εν λόγω ερευνητικό πεδίο.
