La fuga del ex-president y de alguno de sus ex-consellers permite esbozar un mapa de órdenes de detención europeas que si se debiera acompañar de una leyenda sería la de “países que han rechazado o van a rechazar la euroorden”. Este libro contribuye a la construcción teórica y práctica del principio de reconocimiento mutuo y de la orden europea de detención con todos los problemas de gestión y traslado de información entre autoridades judiciales de distintos países que ha planteado el caso Puigdemont. La autocrítica también está detrás de esta contribución: es responsabilidad del Estado español conseguir una mejor comunicación y explicación en Europa de la realidad de la democracia española.

Death penalty: A cruel and inhuman punishment is an academic contribution by Academics for abolition aimed at fostering the debate launched by the United Nations General Assembly in its resolution 62/149 on 18 December 2007, calling for a worldwide moratorium on executions by 2015, and continued by the upcoming review process of the UN’s Millennium Development Goals (MDG). It is mainly a compilation of papers written by the speakers at the Seminar “Against cruel and inhuman punishment and death penalty”, which took place at the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando, in Madrid, on 9 June 2013, on the eve of the 5th World Congress against the death penalty. The book deals with current issues of the process towards abolition as the lack of evidence about the deterrence effect of death penalty and its consideration as a cruel and inhuman punishment. Together with the editors, the contribution includes studies, among others, of H.J. Albrecht, Gabrio Forti, Roger Hood, Salim Himnat and Sergio García Ramírez. The Academic International Network against the Death Penalty (REPECAP) dedicates this book to the International Commission against the Death Penalty (ICDP) chaired by Federico Mayor Zaragoza.
