    THE DIGITAL ENVIRONMENT HAS NO BOUNDARIES. A new business model, product or technological service emerges all the time. Along with the facilitation and solutions brought by technological development, new problems, conflicts and litigation in social and economic relations also arise. Laws of several countries are not often able to keep up with the digital dynamism. Furthermore, there is not a consensus in international trade organisations on the concept of digital services and electronic commerce.That is the scenario in which the European Union has constantly developed rules to regulate the digital environment, ensuring and combining legal security and standardisation of rules with the practical advantages of these new social and trade relations, stimulating innovation and economic growth. While the WTO and the OECD have not reached a consensus on this matter, the EU has been influencing rules around the world and adding chapters on electronic commerce to its deep integration trade agreements with third countries.The book analyses EU regulations regarding the online environment such as personal data protection, electronic commerce, electronic contract, electronic signature and identification, advertising, digital services, consumer rights, and taxation. It addresses several decisions made by the Court of Justice and national courts of the EU. The influence of the EU in Mercosur is demonstrated through the analysis of laws and jurisprudence of Mercosur countries.

    You’ve been doing it all wrong! Trust me!  
So you’ve taken some German classes. Whoop-de-do! Are you good at it yet? Maybe mediocre at best, right?   
So you’ve learned all the ways to conjugate a Spanish verb. Do you think you can understand those Mexicans now when they talk rapidly to each other? Probably not.   
Get this: the problem is that although cramming vocabulary into your brain and learning all the rules of your favorite language may get you a little push, it doesn't get you to the finish line.   
Being ingrained in a culture, language, and the conversation level the locals speak at is a whole different story some of these programs and courses don’t tell you about.   
Do yourself a favor and stop wasting precious time. You’re better than that!   
I’ve had years of experience in learning and teaching, and have mastered several languages. How did I do it? How did I get to speaking two languages fluently and four others on a considerably high level?   
The answer may surprise you. Taken a listen to this audiobook to figure it out, genius! I know you can do it!

    Even though emotional intelligence lacks the volume of quantitative empirical cognitive research that IQ has, the research in the field of cognitive learning has suggested that emotional intelligence is a key fundamental aspect of education. According to a report published by the National Center for Clinical Infant Programs, the level of success that a student has learned new material boils down to their levels of confidence, self-control, curiosity, their ability to communicate, their cooperativeness, their relatedness, and their intentionality. All these traits are aspects of emotional intelligence. More recently, social scientists are beginning to uncover the relationship of emotional intelligence to other organizational psychologies, such as leadership, group performance, individual performance, interpersonal exchange, performance evaluations, and change management. Humans are social beings, and as such, our level of success when dealing with people is intimately linked with our level of emotional intelligence.
