La segunda parte de esta obra est? orientada al examen de los tipos penales en particular, y de las disposiciones a trav?s de las cuales se efect?a la integraci?n normativa, recurriendo a la evoluci?n legal del instituto, a los planteamientos doctrinarios, y a los desarrollos que ha efectuado nuestra jurisprudencia, permeadas por el imprescindible cedazo de la cr?tica, cuando ello se hace necesario para fundamentar propuestas hermen?uticas. Tambi?n se hace referencia a la legislaci?n espa?ola, en cuanto muchas de las hip?tesis delictivas, que consagra nuestro legislador, se han inspirado, de alguna manera en la referida codificaci?n, a efectos de que el lector pueda sacar sus propias conclusiones al efectuar los correspondientes cotejos y an?lisis. Debe destacarse que este segundo ac?pite, que bien podr?a denominarse la verdadera parte especial de los delitos contra la administraci?n p?blica, no sigue necesariamente en el an?lisis de las diferentes hip?tesis delictivas en particular, los estrictos derroteros dogm?ticos de la estructura t?pica en su componente objetivo sujetos, objeto, conducta, elementos normativos, descriptivos— y subjetivo —dolo, culpa, elementos subjetivos distintos del dolo—, no porque se desestimen, sino para evitar repeticiones que resultar?an innecesarias y fatigosas, m?xime cuando la parte primera, hace precisiones in extenso sobre estos temas. En consecuencia, entender? el lector como en el examen de ciertos tipos penales, pareciere prescindirse de esta metodolog?a recurriendo en su lugar a se?alar las caracter?sticas propias de las hip?tesis delictivas, y en otros casos se desarrolla en su integridad, para destacar ante todo los aspectos problem?ticos de las particulares descripciones comportamentales, en el devenir jurisprudencial y doctrinal.

Jean Detrez ist als Leiter einer Abteilung der Europ?ischen Kommission mit Zukunftsforschung befasst. Er ist Zukunftsexperte – aber kein Experte seiner eigenen Zukunft. Diese hat sich seit seiner Trennung von Diane in Luft aufgel?st. Die Kommission beauftragt ihn mit einer Machbarkeitsstudie: Eine rein europ?ische Blockchaintechnologie soll künftig die Unabh?ngigkeit von China und den USA gew?hrleisten. Nachdem Detrez seine Ergebnisse im Europ?ischen Parlament vorgestellt hat, wird er von zwei Lobbyisten zur Seite genommen. Aus Neugier l?sst sich Detrez auf konspirative Treffen in dunklen Hotelbars ein. Nach der letzten Begegnung findet er einen USB-Stick auf dem Boden, den einer der beiden dort verloren hat. Detrez prüft den Inhalt und st??t auf Ungeheuerliches: Es geht nicht um Forschungszwecke, sondern um Bitcoins und den geheimen Auftrag einer chinesischen Firma. Um den Betrug aufzudecken, nimmt er kurzentschlossen einen Flieger nach China, statt wie geplant direkt zu einer Konferenz nach Japan zu reisen. Für 48 Stunden wei? niemand auf der Welt, wo er sich befindet.

Der Plot über internationale Cyberkriminalit?t erzeugt gro?e Spannung, und doch lesen wir einen Roman von Jean-Philippe Toussaint. Sein unverwechselbarer ernster wie ironisch-humorvoller Ton bannt den Leser und ?ffnet zugleich romaneskere Bahnen, die in die Vergangenheit, zur Familie, zu den Kindern des Protagonisten führen, der allem und jedem misstraut und sich doch ins Zentrum der Gefahr wagt. Und sosehr sich sein Chinaaufenthalt immer mehr zu einem Alptraum entwickelt, ahnt der Leser: Die eigentliche Katastrophe steht noch bevor.

"H?lt Jean-Philippe Toussaint den Schlüssel zur Zukunft in der Hand? Mit gr??ter Genauigkeit beschreibt er unsere Welt, von der Technik dominiert und untertan gemacht." (LE CROIX)

"Ein neues Buch von Toussaint zu ?ffnen, hei?t immer, in ein neues Denkmodell einzutreten: In der Tarnung eines Spionageromans bringt er Fragen zur Sprache, die unsere Moderne durch Globalisierung und neue Technologien ausgel?st hat." (LIVRES)

"Jean Detrez arbeitet bei der Europ?ischen Kommission über ein sensibles Thema. Zwei Lobbyisten treten an ihn heran. Bei einem konspirativen Treffen in einem Brüsseler Hotel verliert einer der beiden einen USB-Stick. Dieses Objekt macht aus dem neuen Roman von Jean-Philippe Toussaint ein Buch, das man bis zum Ende nicht mehr weglegen kann, packend wie ein Thriller." (EAN, JOURNAL DE LA LITTT?RATURE)

"Romanhafter denn je, durchaus auch autobiographisch und ohne dass sein Stil Leichtigkeit verliert, zeigt Toussaint in ›Der USB-Stick‹, wie die profitgierige Moderne europ?ische und demokratische Ideale erstickt." (LE GUIDE LIVRES)

Tiefsinnige philosophische Thesen und Konzepte sind nicht immer leicht verst?ndlich. Er?rtert man sie jedoch im zwischenmenschlichen Austausch, im Wechselspiel von Frage und Antwort, werden sie pl?tzlich allgemein verst?ndlich und greifbar. Dieser Band enth?lt philosophische Interviews mit bekannten Philosophen und anderen popul?ren Personen. In den Gespr?chen besch?ftigen sich die Interviewten mit philosophischen sowie mit politischen und gesellschaftlichen Fragestellungen. Durch die Themenvielfalt sind sie f?r Jedermann interessant. Geistreich und kurzweilig, wird Philosophie in der Dialogform lebendig und unterhaltsam. Die Interviews, die in einem Zeitrahmen von ?ber 10 Jahren gef?hrt wurden, sind bedeutende Zeitzeugnisse philosophischen Denkens. Gespr?che u. a. mit: Peter Sloterdijk, R?diger Safranski, Helmut Schmidt, Joachim Gauck, Eugen Drewerman, Reinhold Messner, Maxim Biller, Jan Philipp Reemtsma, Vincent Klink.

Clandestine chemistry and the LA underworld provide the atmosphere for this kaleidoscopic tale of lost memories and the heartbreak of finding them, from the author of ‘The Contortionist’s Handbook’.When Eric Ashworth wakes in jail, he has no idea how he got there, or why. His only memory is a woman's name: Desiree.Released on bail and holed up in a low-rent motel, Eric starts to piece together his former life as a chemist at the centre of a desert drug ring with the help of a powerful new hallucinogen which simultaneously loosens his grip on the present. As the events of his past begin to emerge from the confusion of his fragmented memory, Eric must contend with a gnawing paranoia and the need for ever-increasing fixes – not to mention disturbing visits from an intimidating police detective, his former associate Manhattan White and the ominously named Toe Tag. As his grip on reality becomes more tenuous, past and present, reality and fantasy begin to bleed into each other, bringing this visceral, shifting novel of love and loss to its climax.
