Despite this, the growing digitization of humanitarianism has been a relatively unnoticed dimension of global order. Based on more than seven years of data collection and interdisciplinary research, #Help presents a ground-breaking study of digital humanitarianism and its ramifications for international law and politics.Global problems and policies are being reconfigured, regulated, and addressed through digital interfaces developed for humanitarian ends. #Help analyses how populations, maps, and emergencies take shape on the global plane when given digital form and explores the reorientation of nation states'' priorities and practices of governing around digital data collection imperatives.

When the door to humanitarian relief is opened or closed by algorithms? #Help lays out the distributive effects of recourse to digital interfaces by humanitarian actors: the re-ordering of powers and vulnerabilities between human groups, the routinization of emergencies, and the redirection of political action. This is a hugely interesting, politically relevant, and altogether new analysis of the transformations of the humanitarian imaginary resulting from its integration in the global digital revolution. * Martti Koskenniemi, Emeritus Professor of International Law at the University of Helsinki and Director of the Erik Castrén Institute of International Law and Human Rights *\u003cbr\u003eHow does the diffusion of digital interfaces transform the practice, philosophy, and politics of humanitarian work? This essential and richly documented book discusses the normalization of binary thinking and datafication, the rise of new actionable objects and relations, and shifting temporalities and governance models. #Help offers an invaluable perspective that challenges what we thought we knew about how people today ask for help, and how others respond. * Marion Fourcade, Professor of Sociology and Director of Social Science Matrix at the University of California, Berkeley *\u003cbr\u003ePhilosophically grounded, historically rich, and analytically sharp, this book brings much needed clarity to the complex field of digital humanitarianism. Johns shows how humanitarianism is changing in relation to computational practices, and why this matters for law and politics on a global scale. * Kate Crawford, Research Professor at USC Annenberg and Senior Principal Researcher at MSR New York *\u003cbr\u003eAs humanitarianism has become a global language meant to represent and alleviate the suffering of the world, Fleur Johns critically explores its latest avatar: digital humanitarianism. Through fascinating case studies of recent tools claiming to characterize populations, map needs, and organize responses, #Help offers an original, rigorous and much-needed analysis of the ambiguous promise of this technological turn in the politics of compassion. * Didier Fassin, Professor at the Collège de France and the Institute for Advanced Study *\u003cbr\u003eJohns's work helps us appreciate those transformations with incisive theoretical exploration. * Wendy H.

Clapham provides a comprehensive survey of legal debates, innovations and progress in the regulation of war. He pays equal attention to the causes of war--examining war declarations, the outlawing of war, the place of force in the UN Charter and the question of war powers--and to the regulation of its conduct, including the protection of civilians and other persons, the triggering of the laws of armed conflict and the question of belligerent rights in naval operations. * Alex J. Bellamy, University of Queensland, International Affairs *\u003cbr\u003eThe book stands out as it comprehensively focalises on the legal dimension of war, whereas previous writings on war have covered its application in terms of policy instrument, rationalising planning and conduct of hostilities. * Atul Alexander and Sanyam Jha, Journal of Indian Law and Society  *\u003cbr\u003eHere is an oeuvre which is at one and the same time a law book (you could teach a course out of it) and a book about the law (it does so much more than simply outline the law of armed conflict both jus ad and jus in).

Weiler, New York University School of Law, ICONnect *\u003cbr\u003eThe book War by law professor Andrew Clapham is a flash of light. It is a flash of light not only because it reveals the oft-neglected meanings of international rules on war, but also because it organically depicts the essential logics of functioning of the modern laws of war and patiently deals with its intrinsic aporias. * Martino Tognocchi, Global Intellectual History *","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48732792193367,"sku":"9780198810476","price":32.77,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"the-oxford-handbook-of-international-refugee-law-9780198848639","title":"The Oxford Handbook of International Refugee Law","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Oxford Handbook of International Refugee Law is a comprehensive, critical work, which analyses the state of research across the refugee law regime as a whole.

Tom Farer, a distinguished human rights defender and international lawyer, addresses this challenge head-on with a witty, erudite, and passionate defense of a 'liberalism with borders' – a migration policy that reconciles human rights and national sovereignty in a tough-minded yet compassionate synthesis which deserves to redefine the debate on this key issue in modern politics.' Michael Ignatieff, President and Rector, Central European University, Budapest\u003cbr\u003e'Tom Farer's deeply researched, elegantly written, and humane book Migration and Integration confronts the question of how well-to-do, well-functioning countries in the North, particularly in Europe, should cope with the migration crisis. What should they do about the large numbers of people of diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds who are leaving or fleeing turbulent, dangerous, and impoverished countries of the Global South to settle among them? Should the countries of the North accommodate the 'looming wave' of migrants? Can Europe's predominantly secular societies absorb and integrate millions of Muslim migrants while maintaining the best attributes of their own societies, including those that have become liberal cultural norms? Professor Farer is unblinking in describing the difficulties. He does not evade any hard questions. Asserting that 'My highest priority is the survival of liberal democracy, an outcome by no means assured', his thoughtful answers are based on that priority. Tom Farer's important book is essential reading for those who share that priority.'

Tom Farer, a distinguished human rights defender and international lawyer, addresses this challenge head-on with a witty, erudite, and passionate defense of a 'liberalism with borders' – a migration policy that reconciles human rights and national sovereignty in a tough-minded yet compassionate synthesis which deserves to redefine the debate on this key issue in modern politics.' Michael Ignatieff, President and Rector, Central European University, Budapest\u003cbr\u003e'Tom Farer's deeply researched, elegantly written, and humane book Migration and Integration confronts the question of how well-to-do, well-functioning countries in the North, particularly in Europe, should cope with the migration crisis. What should they do about the large numbers of people of diverse ethnic and religious backgrounds who are leaving or fleeing turbulent, dangerous, and impoverished countries of the Global South to settle among them? Should the countries of the North accommodate the 'looming wave' of migrants? Can Europe's predominantly secular societies absorb and integrate millions of Muslim migrants while maintaining the best attributes of their own societies, including those that have become liberal cultural norms? Professor Farer is unblinking in describing the difficulties. He does not evade any hard questions. Asserting that 'My highest priority is the survival of liberal democracy, an outcome by no means assured', his thoughtful answers are based on that priority. Tom Farer's important book is essential reading for those who share that priority.' Aryeh Neier, Open Society Foundations and Founding Director of Human Rights Watch\u003cbr\u003e'Tom Farer has produced … the best possible statement of the liberal nationalist approach to migration and integration. It is, as it claims, 'liberalism without tears, conservatism without hate'. Farer argues that liberal democrats can meet the challenge of twenty-first-century mass migration, but only if they can rediscover the courage of their convictions while shedding policy dogmatism.

In camps and cities, the dominant humanitarian model remains premised upon a provider-beneficiary relationship. In parallel to this model, however, is a largely neglected story: refugees themselves frequently mobilise to create organisations or networks as alternative providers of social protection. Based on fieldwork in refugee camps and cities in Uganda and Kenya, this book examines how refugee-led organisations emerge, the forms they take, and their interactions with international institutions.

Alexander Aleinikoff, Professor at the New School, New York, Director of the Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility\u003cbr\u003e'The Global Governed? draws on the best tradition of Oxford University's Refugee Studies Centre and its founder, Barbara Harrell-Bond, by starting from the premise that refugees, no matter how destitute and vulnerable, are always actively trying to help themselves. They do not sit back and wait for assistance or for someone else to protect them, but work together to get what they need. By focusing on refugee community organisations, the authors shine a light into the relationships of power that often work against such self-help. They recognise the complexity of different forms of refugee community organising. This book provides a welcome contribution to understanding the political economy of refugee contexts, but is also relevant to policymakers and aid providers seeking to support refugee populations and to localise approaches to humanitarian and development assistance.'

Perry addresses several related questions in human rights theory, political theory and constitutional theory. He begins by explaining what the term ''human right'' means and then elaborates and defends the morality of human rights, which is the first truly global morality in human history. Perry also pursues the implications of the morality of human rights for democratic governance and for the proper role of courts - especially the US Supreme Court - in protecting constitutionally entrenched human rights. The principal constitutional controversies discussed in the book are capital punishment, race-based affirmative action, same-sex marriage, physician-assisted suicide and abortion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'… an extremely important and timely work, by one of the most prominent scholars of human rights, constitutional law and religious freedom in the United States. In it, Perry does nothing less than seek to reorient our understanding of human rights, by rooting them in the psychological phenomenon of agape – or love, as in brotherly love or the unconditional love of God, of the highest form. This foundation, which resonates better than liberal attitudes of respect with central tenets of the major world religions in both West and East, allows him to offer an account of human rights that should prove increasingly influential as globalization progresses. Perry's work presses us to think more deeply about how human rights might be perfected from a moral perspective, and not just better enforced. His views are especially laudable in that they draw on what is deep about religious experience without countenancing what is narrow.' Robin Bradley Kar, Walter V.

Perry's explanation of how courts can enforce substantive human rights without undermining the human right to democratic self-government by using a carefully defined concept of deference, is a significant contribution to his already distinguished body of work.' Mark Tushnet, William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law, Harvard Law School, Massachusetts\u003cbr\u003e'Long an accomplished and distinctive liberal-minded voice in both fields, Michael Perry returns here to the contentious question of whether and how an express regard for the international discourse of human rights can and should enter into constitutional adjudication in the US.

Personal data is relevant for a wide range of services that are supplied across borders and restrictions on data flows therefore have an impact on the trade with such services.

Rather, this book illuminates the complex, and often-hidden, ways in which international environmental law permeates both the study and practice of law much more generally. Simply put, this is exactly the book that will allow international environmental law to escape its specialist field billing and to capture the wide attention of all those seeking to understand law and its relationship to the future of this planet.'

This new edition by two of the leading contemporary experts in the field is welcome and timely.

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":"international-humanitarian-law-rules-controversies-and-solutions-to-problems-arising-in-warfare-second-edition-9781800886902","title":"International Humanitarian Law: Rules,","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this thoroughly updated second edition of what has quickly become the definitive text in the field of international humanitarian law (IHL), leading expert Marco Sassòli evaluates the application of IHL, the way in which hostilities should be conducted against an adversary, and the pertinence of traditional distinctions, such as that between international and non-international armed conflicts or civilians and combatants.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDrawing on the author’s practical experience to provide unique and invaluable insights, the second edition discusses the rules protecting certain categories of persons, including prisoners of war, as well as governing different types of conduct of hostilities and the difficulties in determining whether a destruction was unlawful.

It also introduces the main international and regional bodies and mechanisms concerned with torture and other ill-treatment. It explains why there is a continuing need for robust action globally to tackle torture and other ill-treatment.*\tChapter 2 explains the nature and scope of the absolute prohibition of torture and other ill-treatment under international law. It details the numerous international and regional standards that have emerged to prohibit these forms of abuse, as well as the definitions of torture and other ill-treatment that exist. It considers specific forms of torture and other ill-treatment such as the death penalty, judicial and administrative corporal punishment. It looks at issues of particular concern such as gender-based violence and the link between discrimination, poverty, torture and other ill-treatment. It considers the issue of when non-state (private) actors violate the prohibition of torture and other ill-treatment. *\tChapter 3 sets out the numerous safeguards under international law and standards which have been developed to protect and prevent people deprived of their liberty from being tortured and otherwise ill-treated. It looks not only at safeguards for people detained within the context of the criminal justice system but also other forms of deprivation of liberty such as administrative detention, detention on immigration grounds or due to mental health issues, as well as detention during times of armed conflict. It considers the use of force in law enforcement, as well as torture and other ill-treatment within law enforcement, military and security services. *\tChapter 4 examines the right of persons deprived of their liberty to be treated with humanity and with respect for the inherent dignity of the human person. It details the numerous international standards relating to conditions of detention and the measures that need to be taken to provide humane conditions. It looks at both the physical and psychological aspects of the treatment of detainees, including the standards and procedures concerning discipline and security. *\tChapter 5 considers the obligation of states to prevent torture and other ill-treatment. It examines the role of international, regional and national mechanisms that have been established to promote, ensure and enforce the prevention of torture and other ill-treatment. It also emphasizes the important role that national actors such as national human rights institutions, national preventive mechanisms, non-governmental organizations, faith-based organizations, the judiciary, lawyers and health professionals can play in preventing these forms of abuse. *\tChapter 6 looks at efforts to hold states and individuals accountable for acts of torture and other ill-treatment under international law. It sets out the obligations for states to investigate allegations, bring those responsible to justice and provide reparation treatment to victims. It also considers the role played by the UN, regional treaty bodies and human rights courts when no national efforts are made to bring perpetrators to account, or when national efforts fail. Lastly it looks at the role of the International Criminal Court and ad hoc international and internationalized criminal tribunals in holding individuals accountable for acts of torture and other ill-treatment*\tChapter 7 suggests forms of action to combat torture and other ill-treatment. It draws upon a range of strategies and actions taken by Amnesty International and other human rights defenders working towards a world without torture and ill-treatment.","brand":"Amnesty International UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48884821197143,"sku":"9780862104948","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780862104948.jpg?v=1722533612"},{"product_id":"conceptualising-arbitrary-detention-9781529222494","title":"Conceptualising Arbitrary Detention","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAvailable open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence.

It describes human rights’ evolution into a grand but nebulous project, rooted in compassion, with the overarching aim of improving universal welfare by defining the conditions of human well-being and imposing obligations on the state and other actors to realise them. This gives rise to a form of managerialism, preoccupied with measuring and improving the ‘human rights performance’ of the state, businesses and so on. The ultimate result is the ‘governmentalisation’ of a pastoral form of global human rights governance, in which power is exercised for the general good, moulded by a complex regulatory sphere which shapes the field of action for the individual at every turn.

Only the conception of human dignity –based on the Kantian distinction between price and dignity – can provide a sufficient basis. The derivation of human rights from the principle of human dignity allows us to identify the most crucial characteristic of human rights, namely the protection of personhood. This in turn makes it possible (1) to distinguish between real moral human rights and spurious ones, (2) to assess the scope of protection for many codified human rights according to the criteria of “core” and “yard,” and (3) offers a point of departure for creating new, unwritten human rights. This philosophical basis supports a substantial reassessment of the case law on human rights, which will ultimately allow us to improve it with regard to legal certainty, clarity and cogency.\u003cbr\u003eIn the second edition, errors have been corrected in numerous places, the text has been made clearer and easier to understand.

Areas covered by the book include the notion of direct participation in hostilities; air and missile warfare; military operations in outer space; military cyber operations; belligerent occupation; operational detention; and the protection of the environment in relation to armed conflict. The continuing need to consider borderline issues of the law of armed conflict as well as the interplay of international humanitarian law, human rights law, and other branches of international law is highlighted.
