4th Edition (2026)

What impact has Australia had on international law and what is its significance in terms of its participation in the transnational legal system? This collection of essays delves into the history of Australia's interactions with international law and considers how its people have shaped international law. It explores key issues such as the country's imperial and settler past. It assesses how Australians have contributed to key institutions such as the ICJ, the UN and the British Commonwealth. It gives a fascinating insight into international law's impact on a domestic legal system and the complex and multifaceted nature of that relationship. Scholars from across the international spectrum, whether in the field of law, politics or history, will welcome this erudite and engaging work.

From Empire to the Contemporary World

Australia in the International Legal System

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This book articulates and defends a sceptical general account of parliamentary sovereignty.

It challenges the orthodox approach to this fundamental doctrine by making three key heretical claims. First, there are some laws that Parliament cannot make. Second, there are several ways in which primary legislation can be overridden or set aside by institutions other than Parliament. And third, Parliament has the power to bind itself as to the substance of future legislation. All three positions are developed using arguments which depend on existing legal materials and are compatible with the normative underpinnings of the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty. 

The book combines theoretical and doctrinal analysis. The theoretical part of the book situates Parliament's authority to legislate in the broader context of an examination of constitutional and political authority. It develops a conception of the ways in which competing views on the scope of Parliament's legislative authority are mediated into law. The doctrinal part of the book reconsiders Parliament's legal position. It proposes a novel conception of Parliament's power to bind itself, rooted in the idea of commitments. It defends the existence of a judicial power to impose narrowly conceived freestanding limits on Parliament's law-making authority, rooted in the rule of law. Finally, the book examines the challenges posed to parliamentary sovereignty by both its internal procedures and the devolved legislatures.

Walk in the Good Way

Multilateral environmental agreements have over the last four decades emerged as the preferred avenue to address inter-state environmental issues such as climate change. This book analyses the possibilities as well as the limitations of environmental treaty making between states. The book considers the structures and processes that lead to the successful adoption of the Paris Agreement - and contrasting them with other attempts that failed in bringing states together under a legally-binding solution. Christina Voigt explores the whole "life-cycle" of multilateral environmental agreements. Also emphasised is the impact of emerging economies in shaping international environmental regimes.

Multilateralism has been increasingly accepted as the modus operandi in world politics, and in global environmental politics in particular. International environmental law in the form of multilateral environmental agreements has over the last four decades emerged as the preferred avenue to address inter-state environmental issues that either cross state boundaries, materialize beyond national jurisdictions or are of genuinely global nature such as climate change.This book analyses the possibilities as well as the limitations of environmental treaty making between states. The book considers the structures and processes that lead to the successful adoption of the Paris Agreement – and contrasting them with other attempts that failed in bringing states together under a legally-binding solution. Christina Voigt explores the whole "life-cycle" of multilateral environmental agreements, from diplomatic exchanges, to treaty negotiations, to analyses of the treaty text, non-compliance mechanisms and finally to recourse to courts. It also emphasises the strong impact of the sovereign powers of emerging economies such as China and Brazil on the shaping of international environmental regimes.

Reimagining Law Through Queer Dissent

Lawful Repair

Studien zum Regulierungsrecht

This study develops, from the perspective of European law, a concept for the systemic regulation of disinformation on online platforms aimed at safeguarding the integrity of the public opinion-formation process in the European Union. Against the backdrop of disinformation events between 2016 and 2025 and the changing conditions of platform-based communication, it examines - on the basis of the fundamental rights of the European Union, in particular the scope of protection of freedom of expression under Article 11(1) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights - how proportionate disinformation regulation can be designed within the framework of Articles 34 and 35 of the Digital Services Act and implemented, for instance, through a code of conduct pursuant to Article 45.
 

 The study combines a doctrinal legal analysis of freedom of expression with legal-philosophical and legal-sociological perspectives, drawing on emergence theory to explain how individual disinformative expressions transition from the discursive micro-level to the macro-level of public discourse. On this basis, it develops the concept of disinformation dynamics as an operational point of reference for systemic risks within the meaning of the Digital Services Act.
 

 The result is a proposal for a procedural regulatory architecture that, instead of relying on substantive assessments of truth, is based on a rebuttable presumption of disinformation and, where such suspicion is triggered, enables rights-compliant regulatory measures through a discursive reversal of the burden of proof. An interdisciplinary analysis of AI-based algorithmic detection methods - including knowledge-based, style-based, and dissemination-based approaches - demonstrates the technical feasibility of the concept and identifies the requirements for accuracy, fairness, and explainability in automated disinformation detection.
 

 The study thus contributes to the doctrinal development of European platform regulation and outlines ways to safeguard public opinion formation as a foundation of democracy in the digital sphere.

Key Ideas in Law

This book provides an account of the most important and controversial aspects of the principle of legality in the United Kingdom. The principle of legality describes a method of statutory interpretation that empowers courts to prevent fundamental common law values from being overridden by unclear legislation. However, it makes more sense to think of multiple principles of legality, rather than a single concept. The book provides a fresh and detailed perspective on a controversial aspect of the common law. It will be useful for students of law and politics, legal practitioners and scholars. It explores the many complexities surrounding the historical origins, fields of application, mode of operation, and subject matter of the principle of legality. Despite its long history, the term 'principle of legality' only began to be used in public law cases towards the end of the twentieth century. More recently, judicial references to the principle of legality in high profile constitutional law cases have fuelled broader concerns about judicial overreach. The book argues that these concerns are unfounded, and deeper principles of legality are required.

This book provides a detailed analysis of two UNCITRAL texts: the Model Law on Electronic Transferable Records (MLETR) and the Model Law on the Use and Cross-border Recognition of Identity Management and Trust Services (MLIT). The MLETR is the legal tool that enables the use of trade documents such as bills of lading and promissory notes in electronic form. The book discusses core MLETR provisions such as those on scope of application, functional equivalence, and reliability standards. It illustrates national variations in enactment techniques and substantive content, including in France, Singapore, and the United Kingdom. The MLIT provides the legal framework to manage identity management and trust services, including electronic signatures. The book explains the different approaches to giving legal recognition and effect to identity management and trust services, both domestically and across borders. It discusses the legal framework to accommodate functions and needs of identity management, describes trust services against the background of pre-existing UNCITRAL texts, and takes into account the revised EU eIDAS Regulation. Providing an article-by-article commentary as well as an overview of implementation trends, the book is a fundamental resource for commercial, maritime and banking lawyers, digital economy policymakers, legislative drafters, supply chain management and paperless trade specialists, and for anyone interested in understanding the legal aspects of the transition from documents to data in trade.

Electronic Transferable Records, Digital Identity and Trust Services

Uncitral Model Laws on Digital Trade

This book offers a pioneering and deeply insightful examination of one of the most challenging dilemmas in contemporary counterterrorism and international law: how to legally and morally assess the responsibility of female suicide bombers affiliated with terrorist groups such as Boko Haram. It exposes a critical legal blind spot where female bombers are caught in a 'grey zone' - neither fully prosecuted nor released - due to conflicting norms around gender, victimhood and terrorism. Drawing on extensive research including interviews, case studies of failed suicide bombers, and legal analysis of terrorism cases, it develops a novel culpability framework that moves beyond simplistic notions of guilt or innocence. By exploring the complex spectrum of moral and legal responsibility, this framework offers a much-needed tool for policymakers, judges, practitioners, academics and students dealing with terrorism, war crimes and transitional justice. It challenges prevailing gender stereotypes that often either criminalise women excessively or excuse them arbitrarily and instead provides a nuanced approach that recognises female bombers as individuals whose actions range from coerced victimhood to accountable perpetrators. More than a legal study, this book humanises the lived realities of women involved in violent extremism and highlights the urgent need for legal systems worldwide to adapt. It is essential reading for scholars, legal professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in terrorism, gender, human rights and international justice.
