"A much-needed dose of comfort and positivity." —Shanna Tan, translator of Welcome to the Hyunam-dong Bookshop Tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife and will do anything to see his human again . . . if only he can not disrupt the balance of the universe. After a long life with a loving human family, tabby cat Fuuta has passed into the afterlife, but he is not as far from his owner, Michiru, as it seems. Slight openings bridge the divide between the lands of the living and the dead, and they can be traversed. Eager to see Michiru again, Fuuta interviews for a position at Café Pont, a café that exists in the liminal space between the two worlds, known for its unique message delivery service: Customers leave requests with the name of the person they wish to meet, and a messenger cat is assigned to arrange the "meeting." If Fuuta doesn’t maintain plausible deniability, he could cause panic amongst the living, or worse: He could upset the balance of the universe itself. It is a weighty task for an old tabby cat, but Fuuta is up for the challenge. After all, the job offers a special reward: the right to see Michiru. And he’ll do anything to reunite with his family.

This book analyses laws distinctively normative contribution to place-making. In an original, cross-disciplinary, analysis drawing on scholarship in law, geography, philosophy and politics, Antonia Layard considers how law operates in the fixing of borders that both protect and exclude. Centred upon four legal case studies - on public space; housing regulation; rules on the manifestation of religion; and geographic indications in intellectual property law - the book pursues a critical geographical consideration of how place is integral to ideas about identity, belonging and territory.

Law, Place &amp; Maps: Balancing Protection and Exclusion analyse law’s distinctively normative contribution to place-making. In an original, cross-disciplinary, analysis drawing on scholarship in law, geography, philosophy and politics, Antonia Layard considers how, both formally and formally, law operates in the fixing of borders that both protect and exclude. Centred upon four legal case studies – on public space; housing regulation; rules on the manifestation of religion; and geographic indications in intellectual property law – the book pursues a critical geographical consideration of how place is integral to ideas about identity, belonging and territory. It will be of much interest to critical legal geographers and socio-legal scholars, as well as planning, environmental, intellectual property, housing and land use lawyers.

Balancing Protection and Exclusion

Law, Place and Maps

How can human flourishing arise from what the poet Mary Oliver called 'good work/ongoing'? In its attentiveness to the material, form and purpose of distinct, well-made things, craft epitomizes good work. In its disciplined, quiet giving over to the repetitions of tradition, craft is ongoing. Perhaps more than any other practice, craft work reveals the intimacy between a manifest sense of self and the imperative of its common expression. In a world broken into shuttered units, each separated from the other for the purpose of measured comparison and control, Robin Holt argues that craft work can produce the unassigned remainder that refuses being broken up: it generates its own sufficiency and joy.

Making Form in a Broken World

Craft Work

Bestselling author and award-winning investigative journalist Sandy Tolan exposes the bitter history behind the powerful, secretive sugar industry, and the Fanjuls, the Succession-like family who owns Domino Sugar and profits from it the most.For well over a century—going back to the slave trade in Cuba and into modern-day South Florida—deep-pocketed sugar barons have accumulated billions of dollars in wealth, while their cane cutters remain trapped in an endless cycle of what can only be described as modern-day feudalism. Considered lucky if they can earn more than four dollars a day, their offshore workers become deeply indebted for seeking medical care and are often forced to live out their lives in the fields they tend, lacking the proper paperwork needed to travel freely.Of the families that have profited the most from the historically brutal sugar industry, none is more prosperous or notorious than the Fanjul family—owners of Domino Sugar and Florida Crystals, and recipients of hundreds of millions of dollars from the U.S. government “sugar program.” Their epic family history begins in a village in northern Spain before blazing a path of environmental destruction and social upheaval, through revolution in Cuba, exile and resettlement in sparkling Palm Beach, and acquisition of more than 400,000 acres of sugarcane, from the Everglades to the Dominican Republic. Along the way, through millions of dollars in campaign contributions and lobbying to both parties, their influence stretches all the way to the White House.In Bittersweet Empire, Sandy Tolan draws on more than five years of on-the-ground reporting—which caused the U.S. to block the import of sugar from the Fanjul family’s operations in the Dominican Republic. For the first time, he spins the tale of a 160-year family dynasty and juxtaposes their vast wealth, built upon mountains of sweet, tempting crystals that cause major health issues, with the stark reality wrought upon the communities in which they do business.Eye-opening and meticulously reported, Bittersweet Empire shines a light on the most influential family you’ve never heard of, giving a critical voice to those whose stories have been silenced across generations.

Studies in International Law

This book argues that the pursuit of universal norms remains a worthwhile endeavour for the international legal discipline. It does this while also engaging with the very active imperialist critique of such norms. The study has 4 aims; firstly to illustrate the role that the idea and debate around norms have in developing international law, and secondly to address the philosophical concerns around identifying such norms. It moves on to explore whether a legal/practical instantiation of the universal can be done without taking a particular position/perspective. And finally, it turns to the impact the universal has on the development of international human rights law. Public international law, human rights and legal philosophy scholars will welcome this original theoretical-philosophical perspective on an enduring debate in the field of international law.

International Law and the Pursuit of Universal Norms

"In one wide-ranging volume, Lambert and the country reporters demonstrate that law can not only keep up with technological change, but can in fact stay well ahead by anticipating upcoming questions. This comprehensive comparative reference will be invaluable for lawyers and students." (Professor Joshua Fairfield. Washington and Lee University School of Law, Review of a previous edition) Bringing together a global team of authors, the International Handbook of Social Media Laws covers the law relating to social media across 34 countries in total. From influential social media defamation cases in Australia, to tweeting from court, and regulations enforced by the UK's Online Safety Act 2023, this book clearly articulates the main legal issues and developments across various legal jurisdictions, to ensure a company's social media presence is fully compliant with the law of each country. The third edition has been fully updated to incorporate new criminal and civil case law, and covers topics including: - Online abuse, online bullying and cyberbullying laws - Laws or rules specific to children and social media - Bans or restrictions on the use of, or access to, the internet or social media, including the influential TikTok, Inc. v. Garland case in the US - Use of social media as evidence in courts - Hacking and data breach laws. Contributors to the volume each provide coverage of their own country, ensuring the volume is both authoritative and practical. Countries represented include: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Senegal, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States and Uruguay.

International Handbook of Social Media Laws

The planetary boundaries framework - one of the most influential ideas of our age - is used to describe human-Earth relationships. It shapes global environmental policy and new economic thinking. This book takes a multidisciplinary approach to the planetary boundaries framework. It consists of eighteen chapters by scholars from disciplines ranging from international law to indigenous knowledge. Each chapter begins with an introduction before expanding into a critical analysis of the reach and limits of the boundary framework itself, with each of the nine frameworks the focus of two chapters. This volume comes at as a critical moment, when the unprecedented challenges of the climate crisis demand new approaches, tools and perspectives to questions of climate justice and sustainability. It is a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students in environmental politics and ethics, geography, and Earth system science. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

The Invincible Brain

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.
