Kerr R: An Action At Law

An Action At Law

Being An Outline Of The Jurisdiction Of The Superior Courts Of Common Law (1853)

This classic textbook provides a thorough overview of European private international law. It is essential reading for students and practitioners of private international law and transnational litigation, wherever they may be located: the European rules extend beyond European shores. Opening with foundational questions, the book clearly explains the subject's central tenets: the Brussels I, Rome I and Rome II Regulations (jurisdiction, applicable law for contracts and tort). Additional chapters explore private international law and insolvency, freedom of establishment, and the impact of private international law on corporate social responsibility. The relevant Hague instruments, and the impact of Brexit, are fully integrated in the various chapters. Drawing on the author's rich experience, the new edition retains the book's hallmarks of insight and clarity of expression, ensuring it maintains its position as the leading textbook in the field.

Commercial Litigation in the EU

European Private International Law

The Nigerian court system represents one of the most fascinating and complex legal frameworks in the world, a reflection of the nation's cultural diversity, colonial history, and religious plurality. At its core lies a hybrid legal system that integrates English common law, Sharia law, and customary law. Each of these components serves as a testament to Nigeria's unique journey through history, governance, and the administration of justice.

This book, Understanding the Nigerian Court System, delves into the intricate layers of Nigeria's legal heritage. The 1999 Constitution stands as the supreme law of the land, unifying the nation's diverse legal traditions under a single framework while upholding fundamental rights and freedoms such as the right to life, freedom of expression, and freedom of religion. Yet, beneath this constitutional umbrella, the interplay of English common law, Sharia law, and customary law shapes the daily lives of millions of Nigerians.

A Practical Guide

Understanding the Nigerian Court System

REVISIONING HISTORY

A Black Queer History of the United States

Over the last two decades, Pakistan has seen major legislative changes in the area of gender-based violence. This book explores the impact and ongoing influence of these changes. A frequent refrain in political and social commentary in Pakistan is that these laws, while transformative on paper, have not translated to actual change in the lives of women and girls because of poor implementation. Through analysis of court cases, data on criminal proceedings, and interviews with activists and survivors, this book demonstrates how the impact of progressive laws is influenced by entrenched social norms and structural flaws in state institutions, especially the criminal justice system. Sara Malkani sheds light on limitations of the formal justice system while showing how law reform can create openings for activists to pursue gender justice.

Why do organizations keep causing harm? And how do we cure toxic cultures? "A timely, rigorous, and deeply unsettling book."—Amy C. Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School, and author of The Fearless Organization Not a week goes by with out yet another major organizational scandal: Open AI’s agents going rogue, Volkswagen’s emissions cheating, Boeing’s persistent safety issues, endemic police misconduct at the Oakland PD, and sexual abuse at yet another Roman Catholic Church. So why do do organizations keep causing these harms? Benjamin van Rooij and Nicholas Lord argue that to truly understand and address the impacts of dysfunctional organizations we must look beyond leadership and understand the deeper problems in the organization itself. To do so, Toxic uses dozens of in-depth case studies to connect the dots between various scandals and illustrate the deeper toxic patterns within organizations that lead to them. Each chapter recounts compelling stories of individuals caught within these toxic systems and addresses urgent societal challenges such as environmental degradation, the opioid epidemic, the harms of social media, and police abuse. Stories include:<ul><li>Facebook sought to grow from 1 billion to 5 billion users, leading it to enter Myanmar’s volatile ethnic context without having the knowledge or capacity to do proper content moderation, and thus contributing to genocide.</li><li>Don Parus, a BP engineer made an all-out effort to warn company leaders to invest in safety, just months before a major explosion killed fiteen and injured hundreds at its Texas City Refinery.</li><li>Keith Batt, a rookie at the Oakland Police Department, was made to witness, condone and participate in falsifying arrest records, planting evidence, and even in unsanctioned violence, all within two weeks on the job.</li></ul>Revealing, accessible, engaging, and unsettling, Toxic breaks down the core characteristics of toxic organizations and shows readers how to recognize and address toxicity in their everyday lives.
