Relative Rechtswidrigkeit

Can a legal act be a »bit« illegal? In attempting to answer this question, Christian Bumke uses specific legal problems to demonstrate the basic instruments, mechanisms and examples of shaping the legal system and in doing so tries to explain the significance of the phenomenon of relative illegality in this procedure. In this respect this book can be seen as a contribution to finding a workable solution to a number of basic problems in public law, such as for example the status of directives and administrative provisions between internal and external law, the illegality of laws and administrative acts, the ties between federal authorities and state law and the relationship between the private and the public law concerning the respective interests of neighbors.
