Beamtenrecht

In his new textbook, Thorsten Ingo Schmidt systematically explores the law governing federal civil servants and also addresses the law applicable to state civil servants, judges, and soldiers. Starting from constitutional requirements, he illustrates the civil servant relationship. This is followed by a presentation of the duties and rights of civil servants and their employers, with a focus on the liability, criminal, and disciplinary consequences of breaches of duty. After describing the participation rights of civil servants, the specifics of legal protection in civil service law are explained. Throughout, commonalities and differences with private employment law are consistently highlighted to connect with existing knowledge and foster an understanding of the peculiarities of civil service law. Numerous overviews, review questions, and in-depth questions facilitate comprehension.
