Taylor & Francis Ltd Global Pandemic Security and Human Rights
Book SynopsisThis book presents an international and comparative exploration of how the COVID-19 global pandemic has affected and impacted on issues of human rights, security, and law. Throughout the world, the COVID-19 global pandemic has fundamentally impacted and altered our way of life. As this book sets out, all states have had to contend with similar challenges as well as competing interests and obligations affecting human rights and security. These challenges present very few simple choices but nonetheless carry enormous consequences. Organised into two thematic and distinct yet interrelated parts, first on theoretical and practical challenges for human rights and second on threats to personal, collective, and global security, the book examines how the ability of states to safeguard our fundamental rights and security, broadly defined, has been challenged. Questions about the legality and legal impact of recent responses to COVID-19 will persist for some time. It is often saidTable of ContentsIntroduction1.

Taylor & Francis Vulnerability the Accused and the Criminal
Book SynopsisThis book is concerned with the vulnerability of suspects and defendants in criminal proceedings and the extent to which the vulnerable accused can effectively participate in the criminal process. Commencing with an exploration of how vulnerability is defined and identified, the collection examines and analyses how vulnerability manifests and is addressed at the police station and in court, addressing both child and adult accused persons. Leading and emerging scholars, along with practitioners with experience working in the field, explore and unpack the human rights and procedural implications of suspect and defendant vulnerability and examine how their needs are supported or disregarded. Drawing upon different disciplinary approaches and a range of analyses â doctrinal, theoretical and empirical â this book offers unique insights into the vulnerability and treatment of the criminal accused. In bringing together a diverse range of perspectives, the book offers key insights into the Table of ContentsIntroduction: The Vulnerable Accused in the Criminal Justice System Part 1: The Implementation of the European Framework 1.

Taylor & Francis World Criminal Justice Systems
Book SynopsisThe revised tenth edition of this core textbook provides an understanding of major world criminal justice systems by discussing and comparing the systems of six of the worldâs countries - each representative of a different type of legal system. England, France, Japan, South Africa, Russia, and China are all covered in detail, and an additional chapter on Islamic law uses three example nations to illustrate the range of practice within Sharia. Political, historical, organizational, procedural, and critical issues confronting the justice systems are explained and analyzed. Neatly organized with a parallel structure throughout the text, each chapter contains material on government, police, judiciary, law, corrections, juvenile justice, and other critical issues.A new feature of this text focuses on the nature of the political world order and the significant clash between some democratic and authoritarian governments. Of particular concern are those authoritarian governments that have seen the rise of what has been popularly referred to as the strongman leader. The countries covered in this text have seen the emergence of four such strongmen. While the rise of each occurred in different contexts, they were each facilitated in significant ways by the manner in which they asserted their control over the countryâs criminal justice system.This book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students in criminal justice, prelaw, and similar programs. A comprehensive test bank is available online.Trade Review"This book is a dynamic and well-established textbook from a giant contributor to the comparative criminal justice research and education field."Max Lowenstein, Bournemouth University"I find a country-based case study approach to be very helpful in teaching my Comparative Legal Systems course. There is really no other book on the market that offers this kind of approach" Donald C. Williams, Western New England University"I have used all the editions (1–9) of this book. I was first attracted to it by the introduction (which is unlike any other comparative CJ book), and the detailed discussion of each of the selected countries."Joseph Appiahene-Gyamfi, University of Texas Rio Grande ValleyTable of ContentsIntroduction England France Japan South Africa Russia China Islamic Law

Taylor & Francis Greening the Civil Codes Comparative Private Law
Book SynopsisThis book examines the greening of civil codes from a comparative perspective. It takes into account the increasing requirements of supranational rules, which favour measures to reduce global warming and its negative environmental impacts; it discusses the necessity to expand distributive justice given the current ecological emergency; and it reflects on which private law legal tools potentially may be employed to defend natureâs interests. The work fills a gap in the growing literature on developing rights of nature and ecosystem in transnational law. While the focus is on the environmental issues pertaining to the new civil codes and new projects of civil codes, the book promotes interdisciplinary research applicable to a range of environmental and natural resourcesâfocused courses across the social sciences, especially those related to comparative law systems, legal anthropology, legal traditions in the world, political science and international relations.Trade Review"Taking you on a journey from Latin-America to China via the EU to explore how environmental concerns have integrated civil codes, this accurate and critical study paves the way for rethinking the role of private law in the field of environmental protection. A must read!"Elise Poillot, Full Professor of Civil law at the University of Luxembourg"Greening civil law is the responsibility of private law scholarship. Sabrina Lanni impressively leads the paths to a fundamental reorientation of private law by means of comparative law. The fundamental orientation of the private law system towards nature and the limits of human freedom set by nature creates the basis for revolutionary processes."Martin Schmidt-Kessel, Full Professor of Consumer Law, Private Law and Comparative Law at the University of Bayreuth"This book is very helpful for the constructive dialogue between private law and environmental law. The author analyses in depth a new trend of civil law codification, which makes environmental protection one of the fundamental values of private law."Xue Jun, Full Professor of Civil Law at the Peking University"An in-depth and comprehensive research on the increasing inclusion of environmental issues in current and draft Civil Codes in Europe, Asia and Latin America, thereby blending supranational regulations with private law, consumer protection and the natural world."Ricardo Lorenzetti, Judge of the Supreme Court of Argentina and Professor of Civil and Commercial Contracts at the University of Buenos AiresTable of ContentsPreface Introduction Chapter I Green Civil Codes 1.

Taylor & Francis Neurolaw and Criminal Jurisprudence in India
Book SynopsisThis work explores the transformative potential of neuroscience in reshaping India's criminal justice system. It deftly navigates the complex terrain of neurolaw, examining its implications for criminal responsibility, rehabilitation, and the very foundations of legal thought. Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscientific research and India's rich philosophical traditions, the work proposes innovative approaches to longstanding legal and ethical dilemmas.

It includes a fascinating case study of the Vipassana meditation program in Indian prisons, illustrating the practical applications of neurolaw principles. The volume promises to spark crucial conversations about the nature of human behavior, the purpose of punishment, and the possibility of a more humane and effective justice system. It is a bold step toward a

Taylor & Francis Ltd Multilingual Law
Book SynopsisThis book introduces and explores the concept of multilingual law. Providing an overview as to what is 'multilingual law', the study establishes a new discourse based on this concept, which has hitherto lacked recognition for reasons of complexity and multidisciplinarity. The need for such a discourse now exists and is becoming urgent in view of the progress being made towards European integration and the legal and factual foundation for it in multilingualism and multilingual legislation. Covering different types of multilingual legal orders and their distinguishing features, as well as the basic structure of legal systems, the author studies policy formation, drafting, translation, revision, terminology and computer tools in connection with the legislative and judicial processes. Bringing together a range of diverse legal and linguistic ideas under one roof, this book is of importance to legal-linguists, drafters and translators, as well as students and scholars of leTrade Review'Drawing a broad picture of the numerous dimensions of multilingual law from various viewpoints of law and language, this book provides an excellent introduction to multilingual legal drafting, legal translation, legal lexicography and related areas.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Principle of Effective Legal Protection in
Book SynopsisThis collection presents a comparative analysis of the principle of effective legal protection in administrative law in Europe. It examines how European states consider and enforce the related requirements in their domestic administrative law. The book is divided into three parts: the first comprises a theoretical introductory chapter along with perspectives from International and European Law; part two presents 15 individual country reports on the principle of effective legal protection in mostly EU member states. The core function of the reports is to provide an analysis of the domestic instruments and procedures. Adopting a contextual approach, they consider the historical, political and legal circumstances as well as analysing the relevant case law of the domestic courts; the third part provides a comparative analysis of the country reports. The final chapter assesses the influence and relevance of EU law and the ECHR. The book thus identifies the most important trends and makesTrade ReviewThe efficacy of legal protections for rights is a live issue across Europe, within individual jurisdictions and pan-European legal structures.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Chinese Constitutionalism in a Global Context
Book SynopsisOver the course of the last four decades as China's ideological realm has been transformed, it has become significantly more complicated. This is well illustrated in the current discourse concerning China's constitutional future. Among Chinese intellectuals the liberal constitutionalism paradigm is widely accepted. However, more recently, this perspective has been challenged by mainland New Confucians and Sinicized Marxists alike. The former advocate a constitutionalism that is based upon and loyal to the Confucian tradition; while the latter has sought to theorize the current Chinese constitutional order and reclaim its legitimacy. This book presents a discussion of these three approaches, analyzing their respective strengths and weaknesses, and looking to the likely outcome. The study provides a clear picture of the current ideological debates in China, while developing a platform for the three schools and their respective constituencies to engage in dialogue, pluralize the concepTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Concepts of Law
Book SynopsisDebates surrounding the concept of law are not new. For a wide variety of reasons and in a wide variety of ways, the meaning of ''law'' has long been an important part of Western thought, both within legal scholarship and beyond. The contributors to Concepts of Law are international experts from the fields of comparative law, legal philosophy, and the social sciences. Combining theoretical analyses with case studies, they explore various legal concepts and contexts from diverse national and disciplinary perspectives. Legal and normative pluralism is a theme throughout. Some chapters discuss the development of state law and legal systems. Others wrestle with law's rhetoric and the potential utility of alternative vocabularies, e.g., ''governance'' and 'governmentality'. Others reveal the rich polyjurality of the present, from the local to the global. The result is a rich picture of both present scholarship on laws and norms and the state of contemporary legal complexity, each crossing tTrade Review'This book contains a wonderful collection of essays on the meaning of law in a pluralist society. It is the first volume to bring together stimulating views of celebrated comparatists, legal theorists and social scientists on contemporary legal complexity. Indispensable reading for anyone interested in the state of contemporary law.' Jan Smits, Maastricht University, The Netherlands ’This work displays a remarkably diverse range of opinion in current legal thought and critical scholarship about the nature of law. Although debate on the subject is certainly not new, this book carries it much further into the richly complex world of normative pluralism.’ Tom Bennett, University of Cape Town, South Africa 'This edited collection confronts us with the choice between having to tame a tiger and thinking the tiger to be a cat, just a different one. When writing about "concepts of law", then one apparently must pay tribute and homage, but one must also be daring and fierce. The authors in this book do both, and do it very differently, from one to the other, and thus offer a refreshing look at some of the (really) old problems of law and some of the old, newer and emerging views that exist with regard to the definition, concept and nature of law and to its role and function in a society which itself doesn't stand still. Reading is highly recommended.' Peer Zumbansen, King's College London, UK ’This book is a significant contribution to comparative legal scholarship. It is a collection of sophisticated essays on the nature of law and legal pluralism from philosophical, sociological, historical and comparativist perspectives.’ Vivian Grosswald Curran, University of Pittsburgh, USATable of ContentsChapter 1 Concepts of Law, Seán PatrickDonlan, Lukas HeckendornUrscheler; Chapter 2 Beyond the State In and Of Legal Theory, Maksymilian DelMar; Chapter 3 Do “Legal Systems” Exist?

Taylor & Francis Ltd Judgments of the European Court of Human Rights
Book SynopsisThis volume deals with the domestic effects of judgments of the European Court of Human Rights as a challenge to the various levels of legal orders in Europe. The starting point is the divergent impact of the ECtHR's jurisdiction within the Convention States. The volume seeks new methods of orientation at the various legal levels, given the fact that the Strasbourg case law is increasingly important for most areas of society. Topical tendencies in the case law of the Court are highlighted and discussed against the background of the principle of subsidiarity. The book includes a detailed analysis of the scope, reach, consequences and implementation of the Court's judgments and of the issue of concomitant damages. At the same time the volume deals with the role of domestic jurisdictions in implementing the ECtHR's judgments. Distinguished Judges, legal academics and practitioners from various Council of Europe States are among the contributors to this volume, which succeeds in bringing dTable of ContentsJudgments of the European Court of Human Rights - Effects and Implementation
