Lawyers routinely used it in their arguments and judges often relied upon it in their opinions. Today, by contrast, natural law plays virtually no role in the legal system. When natural law was part of a lawyer''s toolkit, lawyers thought of judges as finders of the law, but when natural law dropped out of the legal system, lawyers began thinking of judges as makers of the law instead.In The Decline of Natural Law, the eminent legal historian Stuart Banner explores the causes and consequences of this change. To do this, Banner discusses the ways in which lawyers used natural law and why the concept seemed reasonable to them. He further examines several long-term trends in legal thought that weakened the position of natural law, including the use of written constitutions, the gradual separation of the spheres of law and religion, the rapid growth of legal publishing, and the position of natural law in some of the 19th century''s most contested legal issues. And finally, he describes both the profession''s rejection of natural law in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and the ways in which the legal system responded to the absence of natural law.The first book to explain how natural law once worked in the American legal system, The Decline of Natural Law offers a unique look into how and why this major shift in legal thought happened, and focuses, in particular, on the shift from the idea that law is something we find to something we make.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction  Part I: Before the Transition Chapter 1: The Law of Nature Chapter 2: The Common Law  Part II: Causes of the Transition Chapter 3: The Adoption of Written Constitutions Chapter 4: The Separation of Law and Religion Chapter 5: The Explosion in Law Publishing Chapter 6: The Two-Sidedness of Natural Law  Part III: The Transition and After Chapter 7: The Decline of Natural Law and Custom Chapter 8: Substitutes for Natural Law Chapter 9: Echoes of Natural Law  Index","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48732650570071,"sku":"9780197556498","price":42.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780197556498.jpg?v=1719997803"},{"product_id":"foundations-of-institutional-reality-9780197657348","title":"Foundations of Institutional Reality","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface    Chapter 1: Institutional Facts Chapter 2: Grounding and Reduction Chapter 3: Grounding Social Rules Chapter 4: Constitution by Rules Chapter 5: Artifacts and the Limits of Error Chapter 6: Rationalizing Practices Chapter 7: Power-Structuring Rules Bibliography","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48732669837655,"sku":"9780197657348","price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780197657348.jpg?v=1719997879"},{"product_id":"justice-migration-and-mercy-9780197682432","title":"Justice Migration and Mercy","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePolitical controversy about migration is becoming more frequent, more heated, and for certain groups, decidedly more urgent. This raises pressing questions not only in the realms of policy-making and public discourse, but also for philosophical accounts of migration. Do liberal states have the right to exclude unwanted outsiders, or should all borders be open? How should we begin to theorize the morality of refugee and asylum policy? If states can exclude unwanted outsiders, what ethical principles govern the determination of who gets in?  Justice, Migration, and Mercy offers a way in which these questions might be answered by providing a vision of how we can understand the political morality of migration. Michael Blake offers a novel, and plausible, account of the right to exclude on which that right is grounded on a more fundamental right to avoid unwanted forms of political relationship. Far from simply justifying exclusion, however, Blake examines the best justifications for exclus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe literature on migration in political philosophy is by now mature, and well-trodden argumentative paths map the contours of its central questions. This makes it all the more impressive that Michael Blake's Justice, Migration, and Mercy manages to navigate those questions in a novel and genuinely distinctive way, as well as to chart out new routes for exploration in the terrain of debate. It will prove valuable to both students of migration in political philosophy, for the lucidity with which it approaches its central questions and relates them to contemporary migration politics (especially in the USA), and to partisans in the debates in which Blake engages, for the original perspective that it articulates and for Blake's thoughtful engagement with his interlocuters. * Jamie Draper, Res Publica *\u003cbr\u003eWhat is unique about Blake's book is that he goes beyond justice to argue that mercy creates other obligations for us to take care of other people, regardless of whether those people have rights in justice to that sort of care. It is a strength of his book that it inspires us to think beyond simply what liberal states must do to avoid being unjust, to the virtues that such states ought to cultivate to become morally better political communities. * Renée Nicole Souris, Philosophia *\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, Michael Blake's new book is a relevant contribution to the migration ethicsliterature to the extent that it introduces a major challenge to the open borders position whileinviting migration scholars to get rid of the restraints of justice by enriching their moral vocabulary. * Mario Josue Cunningham Matamoros, Ethical Theory and Moral Practice *\u003cbr\u003eMichael Blake's book offers a distinctive and illuminating perspective on questions about immigration. Blake is a well known political philosopher, and this book has his characteristic clarity, precision, and sharpness. The book is aimed at a wider audience than his fellow philosophers, however. It is filled with examples, stories, and links to current political debates that will help ordinary readers to understand why it is important both to reflect carefully about highly contested issues and to expand the moral vocabulary that dominates conventional discussions of immigration. It is an engaging and provocative read. * Joseph H. Carens, Professor of Political Science, University of Toronto *\u003cbr\u003eIn the increasingly polarized literature on migration, Blake's approach will be controversial. The book defends some bracing conclusions: Blake argues that would not be unjust for the state to deport undocumented migrants, to prevent the spouses and family members of its own citizens from settling, and to close its borders to all would-be migrants except refugees (though these acts would be unmerciful). Still, even those who disagree (as I do) with these policy conclusions will find the book of considerable philosophical interest. Blake connects migration ethics to a broader picture of what states owe members and outsiders in a world structured as a system of separate legal jurisdictions. This is a real innovation in the migration literature, and an idea worth building upon. * Anna Stilz, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *\u003cbr\u003eFor several years Michael Blake has been among the most important contributors to the philosophical literature on immigration. This book is therefore greatly anticipated and develops a number of fruitful arguments....[T]his is one of the most important books on immigration policy in the past few years and should be read by those with an interest in the topic, as well as by people hoping to develop accounts of virtues other than justice in political philosophy. * Matt Lister, Ethics *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface  Chapter One: On Morality and Migration Chapter Two: Justice and the Excluded, Part One: Open Borders Chapter Three: Justice and the Excluded, Part Two: Closed Borders Chapter Four: Justice, Jurisdiction, and Migration Chapter Five: Coercion and Refuge Chapter Six: Choosing and Refusing: On Migration, Exclusion, and the Bigot's Veto Chapter Seven: People, Places, and Plans: On Love, Migration, and Documentation Chapter Eight: Reciprocity, the Undocumented, and Jeb Bush Chapter Nine: On Mercy in Politics Chapter Ten: Migration and Mercy  Bibliography","brand":"Oxford University Press Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48732673966423,"sku":"9780197682432","price":20.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780197682432.jpg?v=1719997899"},{"product_id":"international-law-theories-9780198725121","title":"International Law Theories","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo fish are swimming in a pond.

By providing an analytical approach to international legal theory, the book encourages readers to enhance their sensitivity to these different approaches and to consider how the presuppositions behind each theory affect analysis, research, and practice in international law.

DeBrabander makes the case that privacy is a poor foundation for democracy, that it is a relatively new value that has been rarely enjoyed throughout historybut constantly persecutedand politically and philosophically suspect.

The author transforms and abstracts cyberspace from the perspective of science and technology into the subject, object, platform, and activity in the field of philosophy. From the three dimensions of 'ontology' (cognition of cyberspace and information), 'epistemology' (sovereignty evolution), and 'methodology' (theoretical refinement), he uses international law, philosophy of science and technology, political philosophy, cyber security, and information entropy to conduct cross-disciplinary research on cyberspace and sovereignty to find a scientific and accurate methodology. Cyberspace sovereignty is the extension of modern state sovereignty. Only by firmly establishing the rule of law of cyberspace sovereignty can we reduce cyber conflicts and cybercrimes, oppose cyber hegemony, and prevent cyber war. The purpose of investigating cyberspace and sovereignty is to plan good laws and good governance. This book argues that cyberspace has sovereignty, sovereignty governs cyberspace, and cyberspace governance depends on comprehensive planning.

Douzinas coins the term “neolegalism” for the curious legal architecture that has spread from interwar Vienna, wartime London, postwar Chicago and Cold War Santiago to its thorough globalisation in the “polycrisis” of the 2020s. Neolegalism, in Douzinas’s account, combines the brutal authoritarianism of a strong-arm state, stoking a cowed general public, with the freedoms of a market order for transnational plutocrats, with a growing subclass of homeless refugees caught in-between.

This is a book that reflects Douzinas’ unwavering faith in popular resistance, in people’s acts of solidarity, sacrifice and care. From that insistent demand that rights, solidarity and justice will not be surrendered to the logic of capital, he draws a restatement of the dignity of natural law which, like in that other heretical Marxist natural lawyer, Ernst Bloch, points us beyond current political compromises and lies to the “orthopaedia” - the upright posture - of critical thinking.’\u003c\/i\u003e -- Emilios Christodoulidis, University of Glasgow, UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents: Introduction: the sense of an ending  PART I STATES OF EXCEPTION, STATES OF NECESSITY  1 Biopolitics, rights, subjects  2 States of exception, states of necessity  3 Protest and resistance in the pandemic  4 A theory of resistance  5 Refugees: politics, law, ethics  PART II CRITICAL REFLECTIONS ON HUMAN RIGHTS  6 Human rights in history  7 Law, morality, politics  8 Neolegalism  9 Cosmopolitanism and just wars  10 The desire called utopia   Index","brand":"Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48868515316055,"sku":"9781800376434","price":100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781800376434.jpg?v=1722288415"},{"product_id":"re-examining-insolvency-law-and-theory-perspectives-for-the-21st-century-9781803928753","title":"Re-examining Insolvency Law and Theory:","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn original book offering a unique theoretical approach, \u003ci\u003eRe-examining Insolvency Law and Theory\u003c\/i\u003e analyses the important role that legal theory plays in the development of insolvency law.

From the early medieval advent of Christendom, it was embedded within theistic and religious systems for over a millennium, during which time it was treated as incomplete and part of an enveloping divine law of ethics. Modern agnosticism in theology, religion, and metaphysics then saw natural law unhitched from these associations, but it is still suspect due to its lingering ties with these disciplines and practices. It endured through its meta-ethical capacity to integrate changes in science with ethics via its central notion of wellbeing as the perfection of human nature, via access to the highest good, however variously understood. Today, nature and human natures wellbeing, are both endangered. Ecological destruction arising from unbridled growth, industrial pollution, nuclear weapons and mass population displacement though poverty and wars threaten humanity. But in terms of the meta-ethics of wellbeing, both the humanist normative ethics of natural law, and some of its enveloping theistic and religious divine law addenda, can be invoked to address such evils. The book aims to reinvigorate natural law as a unifying ethical organon for this purpose, showing that it can dialogue with its enveloping divine law overlays constructively, uncovering its points of essential unity with them, and generating some unified solutions to the global threats mentioned, like poverty. These are largely due to global injustices like tax evasion, the arms trade, and political corruption, which are better prevented by cooperatively agreed and enforced global ideals, norms, and laws, based on natural and divine law, grounding international laws rather than appealing to national norms and laws alone.","brand":"Nova Science Publishers Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48886115402071,"sku":"9781536149630","price":138.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781536149630.jpg?v=1722538873"},{"product_id":"elusive-balance-the-religion-clauses-in-contemporary-america-a-research-guide-9781536155327","title":"Elusive Balance: The Religion Clauses in","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis reference guide provides the reader straightforward coverage on the controversial and often complicated topic of how the U.S. Supreme Court interprets the Religion Clauses of the U.S. Constitution, which promote the free exercise of religion and prohibit the establishment of religion. The resulting court decisions affects the lives of all Americans in an amazingly wide variety of contexts in the religious and government context. This diverse range includes abortion, conscience rights, drug use, military service, and the rights of same sex couples. These issues are highly controversial and often passionately divisive. This work specifically addresses how the Supreme Court has decided these issues during the tenure of the current Chief Justice, John Roberts. In applying the Religion Clauses to a specific case, the justices often follow the philosophical principles of what the Clauses mean. This book explains these differing ideologies and their significance in Supreme Court jurisprudence on cases where the Religion Clauses have been invoked. While holding to long-established principles, American law constantly evolves to meet the challenges of the United States and as a result of reinterpretation of existing legal issues. Chief Justice John Roberts has served on the Court since 2005. The Court has significantly changed during this time, especially in recent years. As jurists change, the overall judicial perspective of the Court changes as well, giving rise to a potentially new Constitutional jurisprudence in all areas of the law. In covering constitutional jurisprudence in contemporary America, we discuss complicated topics in plain English, with minimal jargon, to make the work as accessible as possible to students and general readers. Editorial enhancements are provided to help the researcher refine or expand their research. As a reference work, this book is not offered to persuade the reader to adopt a particular opinion, but instead, seeks to be unbiased, presenting differing positions on given issues, and facilitating the reader to make informed on some of the most important issues in contemporary American society.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction; The Religion Clauses in the US Supreme Court, 1953 through 2005; The Religion Clauses in the Roberts Court; Conclusion: Current Issues and Future Prospects; Index.","brand":"Nova Science Publishers Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48886127067479,"sku":"9781536155327","price":163.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781536155327.jpg?v=1722538915"},{"product_id":"mythologies-of-state-and-monopoly-power-9781583677438","title":"Mythologies of State and Monopoly Power","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Mythologies,” writes veteran human rights lawyer Michael Tigar, “are structures of words and images that portray people, institutions, and events in ways that mask an underlying reality.”   For instance, the “Justice Department” appears, by its very nature and practice, to appropriate “justice” as the exclusive property of the federal government.   In his brilliantly acerbic collection of essays, Tigar reveals, deconstructs, and eviscerates mythologies surrounding the U.S. criminal justice system, racism, free expression, workers’ rights, and international human rights.   Lawyers confront mythologies in the context of their profession. But the struggle for human liberation makes mythology-busting the business of all of us. The rights we have learned to demand are not only trivialized in our current system of social relations; they are, in fact, antithetical to that system.   With wit and eloquence, Michael Tigar draws on legal cases, philosophy, literature, and fifty-years’ experience as an attorney, activist, and teacher to bust the mythologies and to argue for real change.

A more comprehensive description of the concept has been elusive for generations of scholars, lawyers and judges. What does the phrase mean? More specifically, what does the rule of law mean in the context of 21st century issues and challenges?  Professor Robert A Stein, Justice Richard J Goldstone and CEELI Institute Founder Homer Moyer are the distinguished editors and authors of the second edition of The Rule of Law in the 21st Century, published in association with the International Bar Association. Joining Stein, Goldstone and Moyer is an array of internationally distinguished leaders of the legal profession from North America, Europe, Africa and the Middle East to explore the meaning of the rule of law today in a variety of circumstances.  The book examines the concept of the rule of law from a variety of perspectives, beginning with the basic principles and all-important definitional issue of what the term \"rule of law\" means, and includes fully updated chapters covering the independence of the judiciary and the internationalisation of the rule of law.  The second edition also contains several new chapters, including:  War crimes and genocide: ultimate violations of the rule of law; Addressing the problem of corruption that threatens the rule of law; The rule of law and inequality of women in the US judiciary; Thirty years of rule of law learning; and Chapters describing law reform programmes that have strengthened the rule of law around the world in recent decades. The rule of law is humankind's best hope for freedom and justice.

Another focus will be on digitalisation's far-reaching economic, societal and legal implications, with questions of data protection in the realm of comparative law accentuated by contributions on the right to be forgotten or current national legal orders.

The chapters in this volume build upon established traditions of scholarship in German private law and harness resurgent scholarly interest in private law in the United States, inviting readers to question how private law functions on both sides of the Atlantic. In the context of the cross-fertilization of legal scholarship, the transnationalization of law, and the historical ties between US and German debates on methodology, the volume encourages reasoned engagement with private law doctrines and institutions. It further invites reflexive consideration of diverse ways in which methods of legal analysis influence social practices where law is given, received, asserted, and negotiated. Leading methodologies of the past and present are subject to fresh elucidation and insightful criticism, including those of legal formalism, legal conceptualism, legal realism, law and economics, legal philosophy, legal history, empirical jurisprudence, Rechtsdogmatik, and other varieties of doctrinal scholarship.
