Consumer Law and Policy on Faulty Goods

A Comparative Analysis of the Law in Ghana and the UK

&lt;p&gt;Introduction.- Quality requirements of goods under Ghana law.- Quality requirements of goods under English law: Resolving the shortfalls of the law in Ghana.- Consumer remedies for faulty goods under Ghana law.- Consumer remedies for faulty goods under English law: Resolving the shortfalls of the law in Ghana.- Mechanisms for the enforcement of consumer remedies for faulty goods in Ghana.- Mechanisms for the enforcement of consumer remedies under English law: Resolving the shortfalls of the law in Ghana.- The law on faulty goods, consumer remedies and redress mechanisms: Conclusions and reform proposals.&lt;/p&gt;

This book offers a comprehensive reconstruction of proportionality in constitutional law, tracing its trajectory from its origins in Prussian administrative law and German constitutional adjudication to its contemporary application across diverse legal systems. Against the conventional approaches that equate proportionality with the weighing of competing values, it argues that this test was originally conceived as a dogmatic instrument for the protection of rights, not as a balancing technique. Through a detailed comparative analysis of the German and Brazilian experiences, the book reconstructs how proportionality gradually shifted from a strict limit on state power to an open formula of judicial discretion, and proposes a coherent model to restore its normative function. The book critically re-examines the philosophical and theoretical assumptions that transformed proportionality into an indeterminate balancing exercise and reconstructs it as a structured dogmatic test defined by constitutional parameters of protection. Engaging with authors such as Robert Alexy, Bernhard Schlink and Ralf Poscher, it maps how proportionality became the dominant method of constitutional adjudication and how that dominance produced both methodological uncertainty and jurisprudential uniformity. Finally, it proposes a theoretical framework that distinguishes proportionality in the singular, as a general abstraction, from proportionalities in the plural, calibrated to the specificities of each right, context and mode of judicial review. This plural and context-sensitive approach restores the analytical precision that contemporary constitutional law often lacks. By combining historical analysis, comparative dogmatics and legal theory, the study contributes to current debates on the legitimacy and limits of judicial review, the boundaries of fundamental rights and the crisis of constitutional interpretation in modern democracies.

New Horizons of Environmental Law

Studies of the Oxford Institute of European and Comparative Law

Drawing on the experience of recognised experts from across a range of different fields and jurisdictions, this landmark publication tackles default rules in private law in comparative perspective. Often underestimated, but highly influential, default rules are non-mandatory rules that kick in where nothing else has been agreed or provided. The contributions explore default rules from a variety of angles relevant to both scholarship and legal practice, including: · behavioural aspects and the role of platform terms in the digital age; · the remit and operation of defaults in different areas, ranging from contract and commercial law to succession, civil procedure and private international law; · a comparison between Common law and Civilian approaches as well as the EU level; · the perspectives of different 'players' engaged in the generation and application of default rules.

Default Rules in Private Law

Juridicum – Schriftenreihe zum Wirtschafts-, Unternehmens- und Bankrecht / Series on Business, Corporate and Banking Law

Every business owner and startup founder knows the feeling and the moment when regulatory complexity stops being a background concern and becomes the deciding factor in where or whether you build your business/product.This book tells the story about how the choice of jurisdiction (and the rules therein) can make or break a business, and also investigates the interaction between law and innovation. It is analyzed by someone who set out to understand, with scholarly precision, exactly why. The research focuses on how regulation comparatively in the EU &amp; AU affects the startup ecosystem (including their entry, competitiveness, innovativeness, and exit), with a focus in 3 main areas: corporate governance, competition law, and Intellectual Property (Patents).

A Comparative Analysis of the Impact of Regulation in Startup Ecosystems in the EU & AU

Regulation and Startups

Focusing on legal science and its application, this book comprehensively examines the knowledge system, methodology, and values of judgment formation from theoretical jurisprudence to practical application. Tracing the development of legal science, the book analyzes the core connotations of legal rationality, emphasizing the certainty, scientific nature, and ethical aspects of judgments. Through a profound analysis of legal rationality, evidentiary methods, and judicial procedures in the context of adjudication, the book demonstrates how to achieve "good law and good governance" in judicial practice, providing theoretical guidance and practical direction for legal professionals.

Formation of Adjudication: Legal Science as Knowledge, Methodology and Value, and Its Application

This book explores the theoretical foundations and practical implications of adopting a system of binding judicial precedents in civil law and mixed jurisdictions. Drawing from the author’s dual background in Latin American and European legal traditions, the book offers a groundbreaking framework for understanding precedents not merely as persuasive sources but as normative structures with formal binding authority. Written by Hermes Zaneti Jr., a renowned scholar and public prosecutor, this work emerges from a comparative constitutionalist perspective and engages deeply with the theory of Luigi Ferrajoli. It argues that the rise of stare decisis in hybrid systems like Brazil reflects both historical contingencies and a normative evolution toward legal certainty, equality, and rational adjudication. The book introduces the notion of normative precedents and classifies their binding force in three degrees, proposing an operational methodology for judges and courts to apply precedents while respecting constitutional principles such as judicial independence and the separation of powers. This sixth, revised edition includes updated doctrinal discussions, detailed comparative analysis, and a critical reflection on the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure (2015) and the constitutional role of the judiciary in rights protection. With its robust combination of legal theory, dogmatic analysis, and historical development, this book provides scholars, judges, and advanced students with a comprehensive model for integrating precedent into constitutional democracies without sacrificing fundamental guarantees. Ideal for academics in comparative constitutional law, legal theory, and procedural law, The Binding Value of Precedents contributes to global debates on the normative role of precedent, judicial discretion, and the epistemology of legal interpretation in post-formalist legal systems.

Library of Selected Cases from the Chinese Court

This book is the first collection of annotated cases in the field of foreign-related commercial adjudication, published for both international and domestic readers, and edited under the guidance of the Supreme People's Court. This book was compiled by personnel from the Fourth Civil Division and related academic research bases, with the special contributions from members of the International Commercial Expert Committee of the Supreme People's Court, as well as other leading scholars and practitioners. Each case is accompanied by an expert commentary, vividly demonstrating the achievements of China's judicial services in supporting high-level opening-up through the "case-based approach to elaborating the law."This reflects the commitment of Chinese courts to maintaining an open stance towards the world, abiding by international treaty obligations, upholding the international law-based international order, and weaving the fabric of China's judicial ethos with the rich tapestry of global legal achievements. This effort is of great significance for advancing both domestic and foreign-related rule of law, highlighting China's achievements in this field, and helping to create a top-tier business environment that is market-oriented, law-based, and internationalized.
