FOREWORD Financial gain is a primary motive in most corruption offences. This makes confiscation of the proceeds of corruption an effective way to combat corruption offences and to stop laundering of the proceeds, as it deprives the perpetrators of their illicit and unjust gains. This thematic study, Confiscation of instrumentalities and proceeds of corruption crimes in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, analyses the state of play in relevant areas to identify best practices and common problems and to develop regional recommendations for strengthening anti-corruption policies and practices. This thematic study was prepared within the framework of the Anti-Corruption Network for Eastern Europe and Central Asia (ACN) of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) with the funding of the U.S. Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) for the project Support to Fight Against Corruption through Law Enforcement in Kyrgyzstan. The study was conducted based on responses to a questionnaire and other materials provided by the governments of ACN participating countries, namely: Azerbaijan, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, Ukraine. The study also reflects the discussions and examples of best practices that were presented during the meetings of the ACN Law-Enforcement Network in 2016-2017. Additional research was conducted to enrich the report with the data from OECD countries. The study was prepared mainly in 2017. 4 II.

  • Dowry on the Stage of Modern Europe
    European Scientific Journal May 2014 /SPECIAL/ edition ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 INSTITUTION OF MATRIMONIAL PROPERTY – DOWRY ON THE STAGE OF MODERN EUROPE Iveta Nikolajeva, ( MA) Turiba University, Latvia Abstract The institution of matrimonial property – dowry still exists in the EU Council Directive of 24 June 1988 (88/361/EEC) referring to the principle of free movement of capital and is a link to the Latvian Civil Law and shows the existence of the institution of dowry in European law. The study shows the background and historically evolving nature of dowry institution and evaluates the need of it in the contemporary Civil Law of Latvia, tries to answer why such an archaic legal institution is still present in the modern law, analyses it through the gender equality framework and explain regulatory failure in this context, offers solutions for this problem from the theoretical and practical perspectives. In order to understand the topic’s complexity, the article gives a short insight from the historical perspective examining the continuities and discontinuities in this social institution in different regions and eras – starting from ancient world to nowadays: from the time when the king of Babylon Hammurabi ruled up to the modern Southeast Region societies and in the Baltics. The issue has not been analyzed more widely before, there is no common understanding how it corresponds to provisions of the European Economic Community’s gender equality law and what the opinion of general public in Latvia is on this subject. Keywords: Dowry, Matrimonial property, Human rights, Introduction Probably very few will question that the modern law practice in Latvia about dowry regulation is not something that is in high demand.

  • 3. Specific Features of Latvian Contract
    Kalvis Torgans Prof. Dr. Habil. Iur., University of Latvia Latvian Contract Law and the EU Contract law has for centuries promoted international trade and complied with the necessities of international economic relations. As a result of tight integration of EU countries, breaking of obstacles for free movement of capital, goods, services and labour, new trends are appearing in contract law. Latvia, in accordance with the decision made by EU Council in Helsinki, in December 1999, has already commenced discussion on entry into the EU. Significant work has already been accomplished for the harmonisation of the law of Latvia with the law of the EU. However, the EU does not require complete unification of the law. The law of each country has differences and such differences shall remain. Law is a rather conservative social category and therefore when talking about common law, the peculiarity should be taken into consideration. Even one legal regulation, for example, on the moment of concluding a contract or on a right to terminate a contract can cause disputes and conflicts during the execution of the contract. Generally Latvian private law belongs to the community of law of continental Europe, however we all know that even the law of Germany and France may not be acknowledged as identical. The European Union includes both countries with continental European law and common law systems. In practice that still does not trouble economic relationships too much. Endeavours to bring closer the aforementioned systems should be appreciated. Principles of International Commercial Contracts drafted by UNIDROIT and Principles of European Contract Law recently finalised by the Lando Commission show that at least theoretical progress may be reached in this area.
