  • Healthcare Law and Ethics: Principles & Practices

    City University of Hong Kong Press Healthcare Law and Ethics: Principles & Practices

    2 in stock

    Book SynopsisWith the increasing number of complaints and court cases relating to healthcare disputes, healthcare practitioners (HCPs) are now facing more challenges and dilemmas in their daily practices. This book is unique in that most chapters are written jointly by two authors: one with legal training and one with a healthcare background. The balanced view offered thus allows readers to gain a thorough understanding of the concepts presented. Although most of the examples and scenarios are specific to medical doctors, the basic principles and ethical considerations as well as the enforcement of laws and regulations are, with some modifications, equally applicable to other HCPs, such as dentists, nurses, midwives, etc. Readers interested in healthcare law and ethics from numerous fields and stages of training, including legal and healthcare practitioners, trainees, postgraduate researchers and undergraduate students, will find this book both informative and practical as an aid to their work and studies.

  • The Law of Emergency Powers: Comparative Common

    Springer Verlag, Singapore The Law of Emergency Powers: Comparative Common

    5 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book presents a comprehensive legal and constitutional study of emergency powers from a comparative common law perspective. It is one of very few comparative studies on three jurisdictions and arguably the first one to explore in detail various emergency powers, statutory and common law, constitutional and statutory law, martial law and military acting-in-aid of civil authority, wartime and peacetime invocations, and several related and vital themes like judicial review of emergency powers (existence, scope and degree). The three jurisdictions compared here are: the pure implied common law model (employed by the UK), implied constitutional model (employed by the USA) and the explicit constitutional model (employed by India). The book’s content has important implications, as these three jurisdictions collectively cover the largest population within the common law world, and also provide maximum representative diversity. The book covers the various positions on external emergencies as opposed to internal emergencies, economic/financial emergencies, and emergent inroads being made into state autonomy by the central or federal governments, through use of powers like Article 356 of the Indian Constitution. By providing a detailed examination of the law and practice of emergency powers, the book shares a wealth of valuable insights. Specific sub-chapters address questions like – what is the true meaning of ‘martial law’; who can invoke ‘martial law’; when can it be invoked and suspended; what happens when the military is called in to aid civilian authorities; can martial law be deemed to exist or coexist when this happens; what are the limits on state powers when an economic emergency is declared; and, above all, can, and if so, when and how should courts judicially review emergency powers? These and several other questions are asked and answered in this study. Though several checks and constraints have been devised regarding the scope and extent of ‘emergency powers,’ these powers are still prone to misuse, as all vast powers are. A study of the legal propositions on this subject, especially from a comparative perspective, is valuable for any body politic that aspires to practice democracy, while also allowing constitutionally controlled aberrations to protect that democracy.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Routledge Handbook of Comparative Constitutional

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisComparative constitutional change has recently emerged as a distinct field in the study of constitutional law. It is the study of the way constitutions change through formal and informal mechanisms, including amendment, replacement, total and partial revision, adaptation, interpretation, disuse and revolution. The shift of focus from constitution-making to constitutional change makes sense, since amendment power is the means used to refurbish constitutions in established democracies, enhance their adaptation capacity and boost their efficacy. Adversely, constitutional change is also the basic apparatus used to orchestrate constitutional backslide as the erosion of liberal democracies and democratic regression is increasingly affected through legal channels of constitutional change.Routledge Handbook of Comparative Constitutional Change provides a comprehensive reference tool for all those working in the field and a thorough landscape of all theoretical and praTable of Contents1 Introduction.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Icelandic Constitutional Reform

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis collection documents, analyses, and reflects on the Icelandic constitutional reform between 2009 and 2017. It offers a unique insight into this process by providing first-hand accounts of its different stages and core issues. Its 12 substantive chapters are written by the main actors in the reform, including the Chair of the Constitutional Council that drafted the 2011 Proposal for a New Constitution.Part I opens with an address by the President of the Republic and positions the constitutional reform in its full complexity and longer-term perspective, going beyond the frequent portrayal of that process in international discussion as being solely a result of the 2008 financial crisis. Part II offers a nuanced and contextualised reflection on Iceland's innovative approach to consultation and drafting involving lay participants, including its twenty-first-century digital take on the people,' which attracted international attention as crowdsourcing.' Part III analyses the maTrade Review 'For constitutional scholars and practitioners around the world with an interest in the theories and methods of constitution making, an authoritative book on Icelandic Constitutional Reform could hardly be more welcome. Anecdotally, there is widespread awareness of the experiment with crowd-sourcing that took place in Iceland in 2011. Until now, however, there has been no major work that places that event in the context of the broader process or the history of the Icelandic Constitution as a whole. This book fills a very significant void. It will assist understanding of constitution making in general and the dynamics of public participation in particular.' Cheryl Saunders, Laureate Professor Emeritus, University of Melbourne'Agust Þór Arnason and Catherine Dupré have assembled an illustrious group of professors and politicians to illuminate every aspect of the unprecedented constitutional reform efforts of the last decade in Iceland. The colorful contextual details, deep theoretical insights and rich foreign and historical references make this book the best resource available to understand what spurred Iceland to engage in this long and lively experiment in constitutional change—and why the experiment ultimately failed.'Richard Albert, William Stamps Farish Professor of Law, The University of Texas at Austin'Icelandic Constitutional Reform is a clear example of how constitutional change can always innovate and enhance the mechanisms of democracy. This book is not only on Iceland and the fascinating process of constitution-making that took place there right after the financial crisis of 2008. It is on how constitution and democracy need to be intertwined as strongly as possible and how innovations can be brought up to nudge this process. Its scope thereby transcends borders. There is a lot to learn from the many fascinating chapters of this volume and certainly this is a very important contribution to the field of constitutional law, comparative constitutional law, constitutional design and constitutional politics.' Juliano Zaiden Benvindo, Professor of Constitutional Law of the University of Brasília, Brazil.'This book analyses one of the most important, innovative and debated events in modern constitutional law and theory. It provides a rich and nuanced insight into different aspects of the reform process. The authors represent a broad interdisciplinary range of scholars and actors who played an active role in the reform process. The many different voices and contradicting interests from the process are weaved into one deep analysis of fundamental questions of constitutional reform.’Helle Krunke, Professor, Centre for Comparative and European Legal Studies, Faculty of Law, University of Copenhagen.

  • Taylor & Francis Ltd Indirect Judicial Review in Administrative Law

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis book provides a comparative analysis of the concept and concrete application of the system of indirect review of administrative action. The indirect review of administrative action is a judicial review mechanism that permits re-visiting already settled administrative measures. As an indirect way of challenging the validity of a measure or act by attacking the legal basis on which it is founded, it can regard either general acts or individual acts and measures. This book explores whether the system of indirect review is a suitable remedy for modern administrative justice, assessing whether it fairly balances the legality and the legal certainty principles. It examines the tension between the two principles and seeks to establish what the standards of review are and whether a common European trend can be discerned by analysing the theory and practice from jurisdictions in Western and Eastern Europe, as well as the EU legal system. The book will be a valuable resource for aTable of ContentsLists of figures List of tables List of contributors Introduction.
