As an account of the rigors of becoming an infantry paratrooper and subsequently a personal bodyguard to General Douglas MacArthur, the General's Protector outlines the life of an army soldier in post-World War II in occupied Japan.

Nach einem umfassenden Überblick über die DSGVO untersucht diese Arbeit das neue Recht auf Vertretung, das in Art. 80 Abs. 1 DSGVO verankert ist. Dieses Recht ermöglicht es den betroffenen Personen, einen zuständigen Verband zu benennen, der ihre Durchsetzungsrechte ausübt, einschließlich des Rechts auf Entschädigung, vorausgesetzt, dass das Recht der Mitgliedstaaten dies zulässt. Da dieses Recht vom nationalen Recht abhängig ist, wird in dieser Arbeit untersucht, wie in den wichtigsten europäischen Gerichtsbarkeiten mit kollektiven Rechtsbehelfen gegen Massenschäden beim Datenschutz umgegangen wird, bevor ein Überblick über die allgemeine Situation in der EU und die damit verbundenen Herausforderungen gegeben wird.

This insightful book analyses the role that EU general principles have taken in the protection of fundamental rights within the EU since the Lisbon Treaty. In particular, the author focuses on the relationship between written law (the Charter of Fundamental Rights) and unwritten law (the general principles) within the institutional framework of the EU. The book demonstrates that due to their complementary and autonomous function toward the protection of fundamental rights, the general principles still play a key role within the Union despite the binding force of the Charter.

This book provides expert advice on the practical implementation of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and systematically analyses its various provisions. Examples, tables, a checklist etc. showcase the practical consequences of the new legislation. The handbook examines the GDPR’s scope of application, the organizational and material requirements for data protection, the rights of data subjects, the role of the Supervisory Authorities, enforcement and fines under the GDPR, and national particularities. In addition, it supplies a brief outlook on the legal consequences for seminal data processing areas, such as Cloud Computing, Big Data and the Internet of Things.Adopted in 2016, the General Data Protection Regulation will come into force in May 2018. It provides for numerous new and intensified data protection obligations, as well as a significant increase in fines (up to 20 million euros). As a result, not only companies located within the European Union will have to change their approach to data security; due to the GDPR’s broad, transnational scope of application, it will affect numerous companies worldwide.
