Quote from: http://conferences.ted.com/TEDGlobal2013/program/speakers.php#S "Sociologist and philosopher Renata Salecl scrutinizes our individual and societal neuroses, and offers a way out of our current paralysis. Why are we the way we are, as individuals and as larger societies? In her relentless effort to answer this question, theorist Renata Salecl mines law, sociology, criminology, philosophy, and psychoanalysis to arrive at some unsettling conclusions. Salecl—who researches and teaches at universities in her native Slovenia, in New York, and in London -- argues that the modern, capitalism-driven imperative to become masters of our own lives leads to personal and social paralysis."

B.03 Paper at an international scientific conference
The chapter of the scientific monograph was written as a part of a EU funded research project on model rules for the European Public Prosecutor's Office. It contains a presentation and analysis of investigative acts and principles of evidence law in Slovenia that are particularly relevant to the establishment of the European Public Prosecutor's Office. The result of author's research of the novelties in the field of criminal material and procedure law is also the scinetific article "Assets of illicit origin forfeiture and the criminal law", published in the review "Podjetje in delo" (Enterprise and work", no. 6/7, pp. 1143-1151, COBISS.SI-ID 13421137). In the article Gorkič presents his analysis of relationship between the criminal law and civil forfeiture in Slovenian legal order. Thee are several instances in which civil forfeiture procedure relies heavily on the on-going criminal prosecution of persons of interest. This solution in welcomed insofar as it strenghtens the legitimacy of civil forfeiture: it can never fully replace criminal prosecution. On the other hand, reliance on criminal prosecution places considerable restrictions on civil forfeiture procedures: in most cases, they can effectively proceed as long as criminal prosecution is in place. Both scientific works contain new theoretical insights and especially many possibilites for the acquiring of practical knowledge and information that could be very useful for the state officials working in criminal justice (and legal) system.
