In a strong rule of law society, these four principles intersect to ensure that citizens have efficient, transparent and accountable institutions that can defend freedom, ensure public safety, including public health, and facilitate prosperity. Evidence suggests a positive correlation between the rule of law and public healthcountries with a better rule of law enjoy lower maternal and infant mortality rates, longer life expectancy and a lower incidence of chronic diseases. The rule of law fosters trust in institutions and supports a social contract between citizens, both of which are essential for resolving a public health crisis such as the COVID-19 pandemic in which a collective approach is the only way to keep and control the disease.

Effective public administrations are at the service of citizens and businesses. It is essential that public authorities can adapt to changing circumstances. The European Commission helps EU Member States undertake reforms in public administration and governance by providing technical support. Areas of intervention include central public administration, local public administration, egovernment, public procurement, better regulation, the judiciary, the fight against corruption and fraud, and better absorption of European structural and investment funds. A key element of the technical support provided by the European Commission is aimed at improving the performance of public administration. An effective, flexible, and efficient administration is a prerequisite for t...

States are spending ever-increasing amounts on health and property, as well as on police, investigative procedures, courts, and prisons. According to a recent observation, crime control absorbs a considerable percentage of the gross national product (GNP) in developed countries and much higher in less developed countries. However, these expenditures have had relatively little impact on the crime rate and the rehabilitation of criminals, with the relatively high number of recidivists increasing exponentially. As crime resists efforts to combat it, the interest of legal experts has gradually shifted to innovative methods of prevention rather than punishment. Several studies have shown that crime prevention can significantly reduce the number of crimes, as well as reduce their costs.

Therationale for focusing on the confiscation of criminal proceeds is at least two- fold. First itaddresses concerns that enormous criminal wealth, generated most notably by various formsof trafficking offences, risks destabilizing financial systems and corrupting. As such theconfiscation of criminal assets seeks ultimately to reduce and prevent crime by making knownthat criminals will not be allowed to legitimate society. Second it attempts to undermine the“raison d'être” behind most organized crime activity, namely the maximization of profit byillicit means. As such the confiscation of criminal assets seeks ultimately to reduce andprevent crime by making known that criminals will not be allowed to enjoy their illicit wealth.By the same token, focusing on confiscation of criminal wealth can send an importantmessage ...

One of the legal consequences of framing an act as an international crime is that it may give rise to what is called universal jurisdiction, which allows any state to try alleged perpetrators, even in the absence of any link between the accused and the state exercising jurisdiction. The principle that individuals are and can be held criminally accountable for violations of the laws of war dates back to many years. However, it was only after World War II and the Nuremberg and Tokyo trials, set up to judge those German and Japanese military leaders accuzed of serious crimes during the war, that the idea of individual criminal responsibility for serious breaches of international law gained ground. International criminal law is a subset of public internati...

In regard to the defendant's rights, the European Union states consider applicable all the rights that are necessary to assure that the trial is equitable and expeditious. There is no exception to the right to a fair trial. So, a defendant who is being prosecuted on the basis of the universality principle can rely on all the procedural rights provided for the Convention on Human Rights and the domestic code of criminal procedure without any restrictions. In Germany, the Federal Constitutional Court, in a case concerning genocide committed abroad, declared expressly that no special criminal proceedings must be provided for specific crimes.

The European Council Directive 2004/81/EC concerning residence permit issued to Non-European Union Member Country nationals who are victims of trafficking in human beings or who have been the subject of an action to facilitate illegal immigration and who cooperate with the competent authorities. The Council of Europe Convention on action against trafficking in Human Beings (Warsaw 2005), so-called the Convention of the Council of Europe on the slave trade, outlines the rules on the identification of victim, which represent one of the first step. The trafficked person must be ensured protection of her private life both in order to guarantee her safety and to help her be reintegrated into her country of origin or host country. The Special Italian Program for Social Assistance and Protection on the subject of immigration (Law no. 286 of 1998) represents for Italy a true source of pride, because offers a highly valid means for guaranteeing that the victims of the slave trade a...

In a globalised world, with globalised actors, Member States would often need more global means to collect taxes due. The European Union provides a framework and offers instruments to handle cross-border tax issues including potential tax evasion. On 2 March 2012, the European Council called on the Council and the Commission to rapidly develop concrete ways to improve the fight against tax fraud and tax evasion, including in relation to third countries and to report by June 2012. In April the European Parliament adopted a resolution echoing the urgent need for action in this area.
