Cambridge University Press The Informal Regulation of Criminal Markets in
Book SynopsisThis book explains how states informally regulate drug markets in Latin America. It shows how and why state actors, specifically police and politicians, confront, negotiate with, or protect drug dealers to extract illicit rents or prevent criminal violence. The book highlights how, in countries with weak institutions, police act as interlocutors between criminals and politicians. It shows that whether and how politicians control their police forces explains the prevalence of different informal regulatory arrangements to control drug markets. Using detailed case studies built on 180 interviews in four cities in Argentina and Brazil, the book reconstructs how these informal regulatory arrangements emerged and changed over time.Trade Review'We long suspected that state actors in Argentina and Brazil were deeply involved in illicit narcotics markets and that this involvement was producing the interpersonal violence that periodically shakes these countries. But we didn't know how state intervention, drug trafficking, and violence intersect and interact. This book systematically dissects this relation and offers a novel and insightful perspective to understand and explain one of the most intractable issues in contemporary Latin America. Superbly written and brilliantly argued, the plethora of scholarly and policy lessons packed in this book will make it an unavoidable reference in the study of contemporary Latin America.' Javier Auyero, Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long Professor in Latin American Sociology, University of Texas-Austin, author of The Ambivalent State: Police-Criminal Collusion at the Urban Margins'When and how do illicit markets come to be jointly governed by states and organized crime? Hernán Flom unpacks how relations between politicians, police, and criminals generate informal regulatory arrangements that shape state and criminal violence associated with drug markets in Latin America. Insightful theorization and rich empirics make this book an important contribution to the growing research on the politics of crime.' Eduardo Moncada, Assistant Professor of Political Science, Barnard College, Columbia University and author of Resisting Extortion: Victims, Criminals, and States in Latin America (Cambridge University Press, 2021)'This path-breaking book explains how politics in weakly institutionalized democracies shape the ways in which state authorities and the police informally regulate illicit drug markets. Theoretically insightful and empirically rich, Flom's study of four metropolitan areas in Argentina and Brazil masterfully weaves the voices of hundreds of cops and politicians into a cogent explanation of the different uses of violence and corruption to govern illicit markets in the Global South. The book is essential reading for students of governance, regulation, illicit economies, crime, and the police.' Guillermo Trejo, Professor of Political Science, University of Notre Dame'Hernán Flom studies rigorously the relationship between elected politicians and police to explain diverse informal regulatory regimes of drug markets in Argentina and Brazil. This book contributes to theorizing the multiple, and often unexpected, ways in which states interact with drug markets, not only repressing them or enforcing the law, but also tolerating, preying upon, or protecting them. His focus on the police as a pivotal actor expands our knowledge of the intricate dynamics that connect states and criminal markets. The book is an important addition to the literature on criminal violence, drug markets, and policing.'

Cambridge University Press Written and Unwritten
Book SynopsisThe United States Federal Courts of Appeals decide cases concerning the most important issues of our time. This book is an unprecedented look into the internal operations of the courts, detailing the norms and unwritten customs of their day to day operations.Trade Review'This book, authored by an eminent federal circuit judge and an expert academic, fills a conspicuous void when it comes to understanding how our federal appellate courts work in practice. Long overdue, it provides a blueprint for both the legal practitioner and those interested in learning more about the practical considerations that define appellate advocacy. On my bookshelf for sure.' Kenneth R. Feinberg, Esq., former Administrator of the September 11, Victim Compensation Fund'The judicial administration 'dream team' of Judge Jon O. Newman and Duke Law Professor Marin K. Levy have discovered and described the written and unwritten practices and customs of the nation's 13 courts of appeals. Appellate lawyers, judges, and scholars will be delighted to have this compilation of practices and customs, many of which vary considerably from circuit to circuit.' David F. Levi, Dean Emeritus, Duke University Law School, and former President, American Law Institute'The book means that lawyers can more readily find out how to present their cases in different circuits. It means that the judges of different circuits can far more easily learn how their counterparts elsewhere in the federal system organize the judicial appellate task. And it means knowledge will bring about improvement as judges in each circuit learn how others handle similar problems. The result: a judicial system that works better for those whom it serves.'

Cambridge University Press Making We the People
Book SynopsisIn 2014, Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzō announced the expansion of Japan's war powers, challenging a constitutional precedent that had been in place for seventy years. This book examines the history of Japan and Korea's post-World War II constitution-making, in order to shed light on the countries' modern legacies.Trade Review'Hahm and Kim's extraordinary intellectual achievement provides rare illumination of the crucial and deeply misunderstood concept of popular sovereignty. Their learned, elegant, and searching analysis should be an enduring part of the conversation that must be conducted if we are to make sense of our common constitutional predicament.' Gary J. Jacobsohn, H. Malcolm Macdonald Professor of Constitutional and Comparative Law, University of Texas, Austin'The simultaneous writing of constitutions in twentieth-century Japan and Korea, two countries under heavy American influence, makes an obvious candidate for comparative study yet no such work has been undertaken until now. In Making We the People, Hahm and Kim have dug deeply into both histories and their global context, offering a nuanced and thoughtful account.' Andrew Gordon, Lee and Juliet Folger Fund Professor of History, Harvard University'Hahm and Kim persuasively argue that we can only discover who 'We the People' named in a constitution are by adopting a broader spatial and temporal lens … that considers external influences, creative uses of the past, and shifting definitions of peoplehood. Making We the People thus contributes significantly to comparative constitutional studies, East Asian studies, and scholarship on nation building and democratic theory.' Celeste L. Arrington, Pacific Affairs'Making We the People, by Chaihark Hahm and Sung Ho Kim, is an important addition to the literature on comparative constitutional law generally and on constitution-making in particular, on at least two levels. I recommend it highly in relation to both. … Making We the People is a refreshing and welcome entry into this somewhat messy field. Many of the observations that the authors make, sometimes in passing, offer insights into the enterprise of constitutional renewal that ring true and deserve emphasis.'

Cambridge University Press More Utopia Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought
Book SynopsisThis is a fully revised edition of one of the most successful volumes in the Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought series. Incorporating extensive updates to the editorial apparatus, including the introduction, suggestions for further reading, and footnotes, this third edition of More's Utopia has been comprehensively re-worked to take into account scholarship published since the second edition in 2002. The vivid and engaging translation of the work itself by Robert M. Adams includes all the ancillary materials by More's fellow humanists that, added to the book at his own request, collectively constitute the first and best interpretive guide to Utopia. Unlike other teaching editions of Utopia, this edition keeps interpretive commentary - whether editorial annotations or the many pungent marginal glosses that are an especially attractive part of the humanist ancillary materials - on the page they illuminate instead of relegating them to endnotes, and provides students withTrade Review'Adams and Logan's edition has always stood head and shoulders above the crowd for its fluent translation and scrupulous annotation, now superbly updated for the 500th anniversary of the initial publication of More's masterpiece. The ideal edition for students in all disciplines of the humanities.'

Book SynopsisExamining reasoning practices of constitutional judges across eighteen legal systems globally, this book focuses on leading cases in order to compare processes, using a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis. Contributors offer the most comprehensive and systematic account of constitutional reasoning to date, in the first ever study of this scale.Trade Review'Despite substantial academic attention to the rise of judicial power, we know fairly little about how newly empowered courts interpret their constitutions and justify their decisions. This timely and impressive edited collection fills this gap by presenting qualitative and quantitative data from 18 courts and over 700 cases. The volume is a must-read for those interested in comparative constitutional interpretation.' Mila Versteeg, University of Virginia School of Law'This volume is the mature product of a very thorough, innovative, and reasonably large research project.
