Europeanisation, Democratisation and the Limits of Integration

Human Rights Law in Perspective

This book offers an analysis of how the European Court of Human Rights engages with identity and emotion, revealing both the promise and the limitations of human rights law in addressing the complexities of human experience. The book explores how human rights law, often framed as universal and abstract, responds to deeply personal questions of identity, belonging, and emotional impact. Based on a systematic study of over 3,300 judgments, the book shows how the European Court of Human Rights has increasingly made identity central to its reasoning - particularly in cases involving sexuality, ethnicity, and family life. In these areas, the Court acknowledges how state actions shape emotions such as fear, humiliation, and dignity. Yet, in other domains - migration, religion, professional life - the Court avoids emotional engagement, leading to troubling inconsistencies. The book argues that when emotions are excluded from legal reasoning, individuals are reduced to formal entities, stripped of depth and interiority. Combining doctrinal analysis with insights from social theory and psychology, the book presents a new framework for understanding how emotions and identity interact with law. It traces the evolution of identity references across categories and highlights the Court's uneven treatment of emotional harm. This timely and original contribution speaks to legal scholars, practitioners, and theorists interested in human rights, identity politics, and the emotional dimensions of law. It calls for a more responsive and empathetic human rights jurisprudence - one that reflects the lived realities of those it seeks to protect.

Emerging Legal Education

Exploring the broader, non-technical, social and political senses of being situated, this edited collection provides a range of different substantive perspectives on situated learning in legal education.The expert cast of contributors to this book highlight the theory, practice, and impact of situated learning in legal education. Chapters apply situated learning to topics including climate change, First Nations and Indigenous voices, inclusion and belonging, authentic assessment, and generative artificial intelligence. The book questions what differences these intersecting contexts and situations - including the technological, the decolonial and the climatological - make to the practice and thinking of legal educators. In doing so, it considers how legal knowledge and professional identity are shaped through participation, experience, and engagement with communities and real-world problems, and what situated learning can contribute to the future of legal education.This book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of legal education, higher education, digital law, climate change law and decolonial law, as well as legal educators and practitioners interested in curriculum, assessment and educational innovation.

Context, Participation and Practice

Situated Learning in Legal Education

In a movement-defining book, the "godmother of the current moment of dissatisfaction with establishment politics" (The New York Times) tells the story of the rising anti-monopoly movement and charts a course to a democratic future "Essential reading for anyone who's outraged and ready to do something about it." --Lina Khan, former chair, Federal Trade CommissionIn a short, sharp political book, The Nation magazine's "Anti-Monopolist" columnist and "a prophet of the resurgent left" (Franklin Foer) explains the battle between the forces of oligarchy and the rise of the new anti-monopoly movement. Using the stories of modern anti-monopoly heroes including Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan; grocer Anthony Pena, who turned his frustrations with big box stores into a new grocers movement; and Doha Mekki, a trailblazing lawyer who, with her team, developed the first successful criminal wage-fixing case for the Department of Justice; Teachout explains how anti-monopoly cuts across traditional political lines and gives real teeth to economic populism. Teachout, a scholar of the law of democracy and a politician whose run for governor of New York State shocked the political establishment, argues that monopoly is the architecture of private tyranny, and that breaking corporate power is essential to building a new democracy. From AI to agriculture, healthcare to energy, Americans understand that corporate concentration doesn't just cause inequality; it organizes power. Anti-Monopoly gives that feeling a name, a history, and a way forward. After a spate of books out of the Abundance movement arguing that we need to remove local democracy and focus on efficiency at scale, this book provides a sharp counterpoint.

Critical Race Theory

Originalism Is Racism interrogates America's unhealthy obsession with its founding generation by challenging the ascendancy of originalism as the preferred method of constitutional interpretation--both among the justices of the Supreme Court and for significant portions of the American public. The book argues that interpreting the Constitution in accordance with the original intentions or understandings of the founding generation necessarily enshrines and exacerbates racial inequality. For one, originalism perpetuates white supremacy by rejecting the equal human dignity of Black people and other racialized groups and denying them the opportunity to participate in public life on equal terms. It also undermines the abolition of racial oppression by subjecting Black, Brown, and Indigenous people to increased risks of violence and death. In a word, originalism is racism.

Originalism Is Racism: Volume 2

This book argues that referendums are not only acts of decision or legislation, but also exercises in social integration through which identities are formed, reshaped and expressed. In the years following the global economic crisis and its 2010 'bailout', Ireland held a series of seven referendums aimed at liberalising and modernising its Constitution of 1937. Addressing children's rights, marriage equality, abortion, blasphemy, divorce, family rights and care, some of these referendums effected landmark legal reforms. However, they also represented a shift towards a 'symbolic' style of referendum use: their purpose was expressive as much as legislative. And while they were aimed at reshaping national identity in the aftermath of the Great Recession, they also represented a peculiar political strategy of responding to social problems through the symbolic profession and affirmation of constitutional rights. Accordingly, this book explores both the peculiarity of Ireland's use of constitutional referendums, and the wider potential of constitutional referendums as instruments of social integration.

The Social Politics of Constitutional Amendment in Ireland

A brilliant exploration of the phenomenon of prediction markets that asks: what happens when democracy becomes another commodity? Prediction markets are sweeping the world, fundamentally changing the nature of gambling - and the very ways in which we attempt to divine the future.Posed as binary 'Yes/No' questions about future events, prediction markets allow any difference of opinion - whether on pop culture or politics, wars or assassinations - to be financialised. A regulatory minefield with moral implications that divide nations, governments and bettors, they have proved as effective at accurately predicting the timing of missile strikes as they have at calling the outcomes of elections.But are these markets really a new phenomenon? And what does it mean when those tasked with safeguarding democracy hold financial stakes in its volatility?From Renaissance Rome, where merchants wagered on papal conclaves, through nineteenth-century London's wartime coffee house gossip, to the Pentagon's ill-fated terrorism futures exchange and blockchain-based betting on Polymarket today, The Big Bet tells the gripping five-hundred-year story of a permissive regime that no one designed and no one voted for.Drawing on deep expertise, Michael Auerbach examines how these markets are changing our world, and what they mean for the future where democracy becomes just another commodity to be priced and traded. Because prediction markets are not an anomaly - they are the logical endpoint of a society that has applied market capitalism to every aspect of life. And in a world where everything is a wager and nothing is off limits, knowing where the chips will fall matters more than ever.

Prediction Markets and the Future of Democracy

The Big Bet

This innovative deeply researched book, critically examines the failures of international law in addressing severe human rights violations, particularly enforced disappearances and arbitrary detentions. This book argues that international law in a variety of areas, is ineffective and in need of reform. Through the lens of enforced disappearances and arbitrary detentions in international law, the book explores the weaknesses of the state-centric human rights system, emphasizing that states-often the primary violators-are responsible for ensuring compliance and enforcement. The book first examines the recent scourge of enforced disappearances and arbitrary detentions in a number of states, particularly those that have occurred transnationally. Through a detailed analysis of comparative state practice, including rising rates of transnational repression, the book highlights systemic deficiencies and later proposes various reforms to strengthen global human rights protection. The book advocates for an integrated approach, merging international humanitarian law, human rights law, and international criminal law to enhance enforcement and accountability. The book reviews why using an integrated approach to tackling violations will result in far better protections, arguing that abandoning a silo approach to international law and applying international human rights law and international humanitarian law together, especially in the context of international criminal law, will yield far better results. How greater integration can be achieved in theory, is examined. Also reviewed, are how international bodies that work on arbitrary detentions and enforced disappearances, do so in practice. The key challenge that is taken up is how international law can be improved to ensure that the worst violators can be made to comply with international law. For that reason, a series of recommendations are made in the conclusion about what can be done to remedy the deficiencies noted throughout the book. The book argues that much needs to be done to reform international law as well as the processes and mechanisms that provide oversight and accountability.

Why do development projects so often fail to deliver progress, yet succeed in strengthening states?&nbsp;Central Margins answers this question by exposing the paradox at the heart of development: economic failure masking political success. Through vivid ethnography and deep archival research, the book shows how Sri Lanka's ambitious programmes - most notably the World Bank-funded Mahaweli Development Scheme - collapsed as projects of prosperity but triumphed as tools of militarisation, demographic engineering, and state consolidation. Introducing the concept of 'hidden state transcripts', it reveals how governments project images of benevolent development while embedding surveillance, displacement, and majoritarian nationalism in everyday life. By analysing state power from the&nbsp;contested margins of the Sinhala-Buddhist state,&nbsp;Central Margins&nbsp;demonstrates how postcolonial regimes weaponise development and environmental governance to remake sovereignty. This original account speaks not only to scholars of South Asia, but to anyone interested in how development reshapes power and politics across the Global South. This title is Open Access.
