Dear Darling

Told through captivating real cases in real courts, the former President of the Supreme Court leads us on a deeply entertaining and vitally important top-to-bottom tour of the law in our land. 'Principled, timely and vital' PHILIPPE SANDS 'Powerful and urgent' FINANCIAL TIMES 'If this country made any sense, we'd make this book part of the syllabus' IAN DUNT If we are lucky, we'll never have an accident, or be wronged, or face a family difficulty. But what if we do? How do we make sense of the justice system - this vast and arcane world - and ensure it is in our corner? Lady Hale, former President of the Supreme Court, takes us inside our courts to reveal how the law works in real time. From everyday tribunals to the lofty heights of the Royal Courts of Justice, and through captivating true stories of real cases and people, we share in the complexity of deciding what is right, feel the human drama of our legal system and learn what the law truly is. Ultimately, we see how the law serves everyone - and why we must care about it. 'Everyone who cares about a fair and just society should read this book' SARAH LANGFORD 'Informative, enjoyable and compelling' OBSERVER 'Accessible, forensic and breathtakingly humane' SHAMI CHAKRABARTI 'A rallying cry for justice that is truly on our side' CHERIE BLAIR KC ** Longlisted for the Women's Prize for Non-Fiction 2026 **

How the Law Works and How We Can Make It Work Better for Everyone

With the Law on Our Side

Hart Monographs in Transnational and International Law

This book delves into the legal and labour history of the Hashemite Kingdom of Iraq to explore the role international law and its institutions played in Iraq's state formation. Focusing on a turbulent period in global and Middle East history, it shows how the case of Iraq became a laboratory for experimentation with the concept of sovereignty by the Permanent Mandates Commission of the League of Nations in Geneva. This resulted in the development of a doctrine of 'semiperipheral sovereignty' to justify Iraq's independence from the Mandate process. This novel doctrine and its operation within the provisions of the 1930 Anglo- Iraq Treaty ensured the maintenance of British dominance over Iraq, especially to safeguard the extraction and transportation of its valuable oil resources to Western markets. The book traces how this legal doctrine impacted the everyday lives of working class Iraqis. It explores the governance of the extraterritorial spaces of capitalist accumulation and labour exploitation, in particular the Iraq Petroleum Company oil fi elds, the Iraq State Railways and the Port of Basra. It goes on to detail how the oil, railway and port workers led by the Iraqi Communist Party effectively organised themselves into a nationalist revolutionary labour movement. They waged an anti-colonial struggle against these imperial legal structures to improve their lot, leading up to the 1948 Wathba, the 1953 Intifada, and ultimately the July Revolution of 1958, which upended the British-sponsored monarchy. Spanning various international archives and Arabic primary source materials, this book offers an example of a social, legal and labour history written from below, centering ordinary working peoples' agency in the historiography of international law. Drawing on Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) and Marxist methodologies, it emphasises the signifi cance of the semi-periphery in the making of the international legal order.

Investigates the legal and labour history of the Hashemite Kingdom of Iraq to explore the role international law played in Iraq’s state formation.

International Political Theory

This collection reviews Hegel in relation to the key themes of history, politics and philosophy. It shows how Hegel is a historical thinker, whose theories are
developed via a philosophical consideration of historical development at a number of levels. Hegel’s expertise in the history of philosophy leads him to
recognize the distinctiveness of the present, while building upon philosophical predecessors. This perspective sheds light on Hegel’s distinctive reading of the
political, which is both insightful and timely. Hegel’s reading of political economy emerges out of his conception of modernity and remains relevant to contemporary conceptions of civil society. Likewise Hegel’s focus upon the international remains of great moment in that he shows the interplay between internal and external forms of sovereignty. Hegel’s global perspective on international politics remains of relevance today and it bears upon his understanding of internal state sovereignty and history. This volume ends with a synoptic reading of Hegel today, which reviews him critically in the light of his problematic reading of race, sex and Eurocentrism. The essays in this volume reflect Gary Browning’s engagement with Hegel over a number of years, and, collectively, they show how Hegel’s political theory is linked to his reading of history and philosophy, and they make a case for the continued relevance of Hegel’s political and international theory.

Hegel on History, Politics and Philosophy

Applied legal philosophy in the advancing 21st century. Authors from different continents explore whether, how, and for whom legal-philosophical thinking can have an impact in light of the diverse and sometimes alarming developments and challenges facing today's world. Their contributions include application-oriented analyses, concepts of decision-making and legitimation, as well as legal-ethical guidance and positioning in response to current international problems. They also reflect on the prospective role of legal philosophy in a globalized world and its relationship to society, politics, and international law.

Thoughts and Concepts

Applied Philosophy of Law - Orientation in a Nervous World?

Drawn from the American Prison Writing Project Archive, a pivotal anthology of essays by incarcerated writers about the prison's role in perpetuating harm

Prison is neither the beginning of the inquiry nor the end. Thus, writers from across carceral institutions in the US unfold the multiple and intersecting ways that violence shapes and informs their lives, prior to, during, and after incarceration. They illuminate violence as a contextual phenomena shaped by historical trauma, cycles of deprivation, and systemic inequities. Harm and Punishment reveals the interconnectedness of personal and structural violence, tracing the way violence often emerges within the fabric of communities profoundly shaped by poverty, racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia.

The stories, testimonies, and reflections collected here serve as bridges toward a new imagination. They expose the limitations of punishment and move us closer to a vision of collective care and mutual responsibility. In bearing witness to the experiences of incarcerated writers, readers become part of a profound shared endeavor to dismantle the barriers of misunderstanding and fear, opening pathways to action and change.&nbsp;

Harm and Punishment

This book examines the historical and methodological development of the consumption function in economics. It provides a discussion of the key stages in the theoretical evolution of the concept, from the beginning of the 20th century through to the modern day. Particular attention is given to the ways in which Thorstein Veblen, John Maynard Keynes, James Duesenberry, Franco Modigliani, Richard Brumberg, and Milton Friedman conceptualized consumption. Further, it examines the latest theoretical and methodological developments within the neoclassical, as well as the heterodox economics traditions. By connecting the history of consumption function to the methodological frameworks in which consumption theories were devised, the work also brings into the fore the important economic policy implications associated to various consumption formulations.&nbsp; &nbsp; This book offers insight into how different schools of economic thought have defined consumption and how these ideas inform modern economic theories and political discussions. It will be of interest to students and researchers working on macroeconomic policy, economic theory, and the history of economic thought.&nbsp;

The Consumption Function in Economics

This book critically examines the development and operation of administrative justice in the UK. Everyday, people have millions of interactions with government and public services. Administrative justice is concerned with the fairness of these interactions and the redress mechanisms people can use when things go wrong. Administrative justice is a large and expanding part of the legal system and of governmental activity in the United Kingdom. It includes initial administrative decision-making, the delivery of public services as well as redress and scrutiny mechanisms, principally tribunals, complaint-handling and ombudsmen. Administrative justice encompasses a far greater number of decisions than the caseloads of the courts. This book explores what administrative justice is, why it is important, how it has evolved, how it works in practice and how it could be improved. Combining theoretical and empirical analysis, the book examines various contexts in which administrative justice operates, including benefits and special educational needs and disability. It also examines the social and political forces that drive the development of administrative justice and critically analyses the creation, operation and effectiveness of redress institutions.

This second edition of The Palgrave Handbook of Criminology and the Global South&nbsp;significantly expands, develops and draws together the rapidly growing research and theory about crime, punishment, security, prisons, policing, gender violence, environmental justice, island justice and justice innovations from, of and about the Global South. It addresses the hegemonic bias in the production and dissemination of criminological knowledge and covers a huge scope of research methodologies and lines of inquiry to develop a transnational criminology inclusive of the experiences and perspectives of the Global South. It includes Indigenous, critical, green, southern, feminist, counter-colonial, post-colonial and de-colonial approaches. It seeks to&nbsp;contribute to the bridging of global divides and reducing inequities with the aim to democratise criminological knowledges.

Following on the success of Tough Cases, called "A law buff's dream" by headbutler.com, Challenging Cases collects judges' firsthand stories of deciding cases when the world is watching Most cases that judges decide garner little public attention. But occasionally, a case is tried both in the courtroom and in the court of public opinion. In Challenging Cases, some of the country's leading jurists talk about the most high-profile cases they've handled--ones where the eyes of the world were upon them. Whether the defendant was a beloved major league baseball player, a movie star, or a well-known sex-offender, or whether the topic addressed an especially contentious aspect of the culture wars, these cases played out before millions of on-lookers, adding a whole new dimension to what is already a Solomonic responsibility. In their previous book, Tough Cases, called "an unprecedented view from the bench" by legal commentator Greta van Susteren, and "a genuine revelation" by Justin Driver in The Washington Post, Judges Canan, Mize, and Weisberg made us privy to the thought processes of judges making some of their hardest legal decisions. In Challenging Cases, over a dozen judges from courts in DC, Texas, Seattle, Michigan, Maine, Buffalo, Virginia, and more speak to the added challenge of trials involving high-profile defendants. Cases include: <ul> <li>the perjury trial of Roger Clemens </li><li>the sentencing of January 6th rioters </li><li>the case of Dr. Larry Nassar, accused of the sexual abuse of hundreds of female athletes </li><li>the Kosovo international war crimes trial </li><li>the Johnny Depp trial</li></ul> Providing the fodder for a whole new season of Law and Order, Challenging Cases is for every actual and armchair legal beagle in the country.
