Dear participants of the Spetses Summer Academy,
I hope that you have excellent memories of the weeks you spent at Spetses. May be some of you are still interested in the subjects of the academy. For that case, I have prepared some links to official or scientific Internet sources with regard to the subjects of my lessons. If you know other internet sources - especially new Internet articles on the Charter, which have been published recently in your country - please let me know and I will complete the links. The reflections on the Charter, which I have presented, have now been published in the Juristenzeitung 2001, p. 833 et seq. (sorry - in German only).
Good luck for your thesis (and other) projects! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions,
yours Dr. Thomas Schmitz (Thomas.Schmitz@jur.uni-goettingen.de).
