A romanisták az idegen anyag feldolgozására vonatkozó római jogi szabályokat hagyományosan nagy figyelemre méltatták. Mayer-Maly szerint ez a kiemelt érdeklődés három okra vezethető vissza. Egyrészt a feldolgozás tana szokatlanul mély bepillantást enged a római jogi gondolkodás mély rétegeibe, másrészt az újkorban a munka és a tőke problematikája révén újra reflektorfénybe került a probléma, harmadrészt a jogintézmény érzékeny szociális kérdéseket is felvet. Az európai magánjogi kodifikációk többsége sem tudta magát kivonni a feldolgozás római tanának hatása alól, így a téma mindmáig aktuális.

The aim of my article is to present an overview of certain stages of Costantino Mortati’s scientific work (Constitutional Court’s judge and professor of law) on the basis of Italian bibliography. His most popular work, entitled “the Constitution in material sense” (1940) conforms to problems and methodology of Italian constitutional law, while it reflects to contemporary schools of European jurisprudence and changes of institutions and theories of modern state. Behind Mortati’s theories about the State and the Constitution, the Italian liberal state regarded as heritage of risor- gimento, and the symptoms of its crises, birth and fall of the totalitarian state and the fundamental public law-aspects of the democratic and republic state can be found.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), at least 868 million people are undernourished nowadays. Combating against hunger and malnutrition shall not only be a moral duty, but a legally binding human rights obligation. The right to food is recognized firstly within the text of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights adopted in 1948, as part of the right to an adequate standard of living, however nowadays it is considered to be a substantive right. This study deals with the key aspects of the right to adequate food in public international law, including its definition, content and enforcement, as well.

In 2007 the ICSID concluded that MHS’s contract with Malaysia to undertake complex salvage operations considered investment even if it had not significantly contributed to Malaysia’s economic development thus failed to fall within the scope of the former interpretation of the notion of investment. This decision is significant in the sphere of international investment law as it synthesizes the former practice of the ICSID concerning the definition and conceptual elements of the notion of ’investment’. Besides, the Diana case serves for the enlargement of salvage law; however it can- not be defined as a classical source of law. It gives a new way to legal protection for salvage activity thus it contributes to the orientation in the chaotic mass of mainly customary rules related to shipwreck salvaging.
