Asserted violation of the right to fair trial is in the long term the most often asserted argument in constitutional complaints and applicatins to ECtHR. This right is interesting not only for "human rights" academics; the scope of right to fair trial is a "meeting point" of constitutional law, criminal law, civil procedure law and administrative law. Therefore, the constitutional law section is opened not only to scholars of constitutional law, but to academics dealing with different aspects of procedural law, who would like to discuss questions of the scope of the right to fair trial, access to court, requirements for judge and court or procedural guarantees of criminal, civil or administrative procedure.

Every territorial self-governing unit is represented by a group of individuals presented as authors and also as the recipients of the local public administration. Municipal citizenship is encumbered by a wide range of obligations and rights. The same rights as those of municipal citizens are gained by the citizens of European Union with a residence in the municipality. Currently there is a question, posed also considering the fact of purpose-built residence gain, if the residence actually bound to the municipial citizenship is either merely registrational question (as stated for a long period of time) or could be taken also in a material sense. On the local self-government level individuals pose also as voted functionaries, professional employees or officials. Besides the merit and the regulation of the relationship of those individuals and the local self-governing unit there are brought also questions concerning ethic codes or local goverment corruption. All these questions should be the topic of this conference section, together with reflection of the dynamics of european administrative law principles in action.

United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is considered to be one of the most successful unification instruments in the area of international trade. However, the Convention is a non-mandatory rule. The legal practice often makes use of the non-mandatory character of the Convention and excludes the application of the Convention on the sale contracts. What are the reasons for refusal of the Convention? Are they connected to the legal regulation contained in the Convention? And if so, why? Besides, there exist further questions relating to the content of the Convention as well as questions relating to the relation between the Convention and rules of conflict or procedural law.
