A Handbook

Legal Tech

Routledge Research in Media Law

This book considers whether news gatherers should be required to disclose the identity of anonymous sources used in their stories by courts or other bodies. The vast majority of media self-regulatory codes impose an obligation not to disclose the identity of such sources, but many legal systems have traditionally been reluctant to offer such a degree of protection to anonymous sources, or any at all. However, the latter part of the twentieth century and early twenty-first century has seen an explosion in the number of such 'source protection' laws, and much judicial and legislative activity to change existing laws.Drawing on media and communications theories the book identifies a number of different theoretical justifications for source protection laws and analyzes whether the application of existing laws are consistent with any of these theories. Using legal materials and codes from a wide variety of countries it considers whether there are any noticeable trends in how different countries address this issue. It explores the influence of the United States and the European Court of Human Rights' jurisprudence on the matter beyond their jurisdictions, and asks the question whether this is an area of law captured by 'globalisation,' or whether countries with different constitutional and media traditions have developed different approaches to 'source protection.'Finally having assess the arguments in support of source protection laws Damian Carney puts forward a model clause and model shield law for the protection of anonymous sources which is theoretically and practically robust.

This book considers whether news gatherers should be required to disclose the identity of anonymous sources used in their stories by courts or other bodies.

Journalists, Anonymous Sources and the Law

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.

Routledge Research in Human Rights Law

Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries.

One of the most significant debates in international human rights law and in international law generally in the 21st century is about the responsibility of businesses for human rights in their areas of influence. The last decade witnessed significant, arguably monumental, development in global norms pertaining to the human rights obligation of businesses. Of particular significance is the emergence of a distinct business and human rights agenda driven by two normative instruments: the 2008 Protect, Respect and Remedy: a Framework for Business and Human Rights and the 2011 UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries. Focusing in part on the extractive industry it consider the industry standards and best practices as well as the challenges the industry still faces in order to avoid human rights abuses. The book examines and evaluates emerging practices designed to minimize, manage, or mitigate corporate impact on human rights in Africa. It looks at the role of national and regional courts in Africa in ensuring accountability of businesses in Africa as well as considering the possible role for alternative dispute resolution mechanisms in realizing accountability.

Rechtstheorie - Legal Theory

RTh (Mohr Siebeck)

Global value chains exist in the blind spots of legal doctrine and are hence marked by a diffusion of responsibility. For private law, this entails a methodological challenge that is exemplary for dealing with globalisation - that is, to apprehend global value chains in both their economic and societal dynamics.

Company law, as a specialised branch of business law, is uniquely shaped by contemporary challenges that often redefine traditional legal concepts. Historically, the study of company law has been approached through the lens of individual legal systems rather than a broader, comparative perspective. Addressing this gap, this advanced textbook offers a comprehensive comparative analysis of common law and civil law traditions.The book focuses on the interplay between the UK legal system and the European Union's legal framework through the analysis of some EU states' legal systems. It examines company law in common law jurisdictions, particularly England and Wales, alongside Scotland, while integrating the latest legislative developments within some states of the EU, for instance, Italy and Germany. Through this comparative lens, the textbook explores pressing contemporary issues, such as the pursuit of sustainability and the green agenda, and technological evolution, in particular, AI, analysing their impact on the foundational principles of company law.Marking the 20th anniversary of the passing of the Companies Act 2006, Comparative Company Law serves as a bridge between common law and civil law, combining tradition with innovation. It provides a nuanced exploration of how modern challenges, ranging from sustainability to human rights, reshape the structure of company law, making it an essential resource for advanced students and scholars.
