International Law and the Global South

This book provides comprehensive discussions on the instruments, mechanisms and debates relevant to tackling biopiracy and protecting the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities in that context.&nbsp;Biopiracy is one of the most controversial issues in the international society and indigenous peoples and local communities have been the main victim of biopiracy because although they have made enormous contributions to the conservation of biological and genetic resources and development of associated traditional knowledge, they have been rarely acknowledged and few benefits have been shared.Against this backdrop, this book surveys biopiracy cases around the world, analyses and discusses the international regimes relevant to biopiracy, and suggests possible ways forward; namely the instruments or mechanisms to tackle biopiracy and protect the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities based on the international regimes. It provides a comprehensive picture on the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities in the context of biopiracy by analysing international biodiversity, human rights and intellectual property regimes as a whole. Moreover, unlike others, this book also suggests how to improve domestic laws and institutions to tackle biopiracy and protect the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities to genetic resources and associated traditional knowledge in accordance with the international regimes by, for instance, providing the core elements of the model laws and institutions.For these reasons, the book will be a good guide for students and researchers who are interested in laws and policies on the (sustainable) use of biological and genetic resources. Particularly, given that with the adoption of the Nagoya Protocol, scientists (particularly, biologists) need to understand international biodiversity and intellectual property laws and institutions, this book will be useful for them. Moreover, as indigenous peoples and local communities are the main victim of biopiracy, this book will help indigenous rights activists and organizations working to protect their rights.

Climate change is not a distant environmental concern but an immediate legal, economic, and governance challenge. Nowhere is this more evident than in the Arctic, where rapid warming is reshaping ecosystems, opening new shipping routes, expanding access to natural resources, and creating unprecedented legal and financial risks.This book examines how accelerating climate change is transforming the legal landscape of the Arctic, exposing the limits of existing international environmental, maritime, energy, and liability frameworks. It explores how climate-driven uncertainty challenges traditional approaches to regulation and risk management, calling for more integrated and adaptive governance.Bringing together environmental law, climate governance, maritime law, energy regulation, and insurance, the book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the Arctic as a testing ground for climate-resilient legal systems. It examines issues ranging from shipping and offshore resource development to environmental liability, risk allocation, and regulatory reform.A central contribution of the book is its analysis of insurance as more than a mechanism for compensation. It demonstrates how insurance can influence behaviour, price environmental risk, strengthen resilience, and support climate governance in vulnerable regions. The book also addresses the ethical and geopolitical dimensions of Arctic transformation, including Indigenous communities, intergenerational justice, and the balance between economic development and environmental protection.The book positions Arctic as a laboratory for future climate governance, hence, providing legal and other insights for scholars, policymakers, legal practitioners, and industry professionals seeking effective responses to the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

Routledge Research in Human Rights Law

Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries.

One of the most significant debates in international human rights law and in international law generally in the 21st century is about the responsibility of businesses for human rights in their areas of influence. The last decade witnessed significant, arguably monumental, development in global norms pertaining to the human rights obligation of businesses. Of particular significance is the emergence of a distinct business and human rights agenda driven by two normative instruments: the 2008 Protect, Respect and Remedy: a Framework for Business and Human Rights and the 2011 UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries. Focusing in part on the extractive industry it consider the industry standards and best practices as well as the challenges the industry still faces in order to avoid human rights abuses. The book examines and evaluates emerging practices designed to minimize, manage, or mitigate corporate impact on human rights in Africa. It looks at the role of national and regional courts in Africa in ensuring accountability of businesses in Africa as well as considering the possible role for alternative dispute resolution mechanisms in realizing accountability.

This volume is a collection of Jota Ishikawa's past and recent research on strategic trade policy. Chapters one and two are concerned with technical matters when studying strategic trade policy rather than the analysis of strategic trade policy itself. The chapters particularly introduce an innovative method of illustrating the Cournot-oligopoly equilibrium and the Cournot-oligopsony equilibrium on the price-quantity plane. Chapter three surveys the pioneering work by James A Brander and Barbara J Spencer and examines several points that are often overlooked or misunderstood when discussing theoretical models of strategic trade policy. Chapters four through six deal with market integration through trade liberalization in the context of strategic trade policy. It is shown that trade liberalization may generate unexpected effects. Chapters seven through nine investigate trade costs and trade policies in the presence of firm heterogeneity. Implications obtained in these chapters are different from those in the Melitz model. Chapters 10 and 11 are concerned with information about strategic trade policies. In particular, these chapters study what information is needed when employing strategic trade policies. Chapters 12 through 15 explore strategic trade policies with intermediate inputs. As global value chains develop, it is becoming increasingly important to analyze trade policies in vertical market structures.

EYIEL Monographs - Studies in European and International Economic Law

This book offers a comprehensive analysis of how recurring contractual practices and arbitral awards in cross-border M&amp;A transactions give rise to transnational M&amp;A law. It begins by defining the scope of inquiry and establishing systems theory as the foundation for understanding the formation of transnational M&amp;A law. The discussion then situates these developments within the broader context of economic globalization and the fragmentation of private law. The book highlights the limitations of uniform law instruments in addressing the complexity of cross-border M&amp;A transactions and emphasizes the strategic use of private governance to manage uncertainty, particularly given the natural incompleteness of M&amp;A agreements.The analysis then identifies the three pillars that support the emergence of transnational M&amp;A law: the form shaped by the dominance of English and US/UK legal terminology; the repetition of clauses that reinforce legal memory; and the adaptation of contractual structures driven by M&amp;A global lawyering and the declining relevance of traditional legal families.Building on this foundation, the book explores the substantive components of cross‑border M&amp;A agreements, showing that the purchase price functions as the cornerstone of every M&amp;A deal. It analyzes how valuation and due diligence influence risk allocation, and examines the modular legal structures that recur across M&amp;A deals.The final chapter presents international commercial arbitration as the most suitable mechanism for resolving cross‑border M&amp;A conflicts. Arbitration is well suited to this because it keeps outcomes coherent and reinforces the legal structures the parties themselves agreed on. The conclusion connects the preceding chapters and offers direction for future research on transnational M&amp;A law.
