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.

Environmental Multilateralism and its Discontents

This book is the first comprehensive academic treatment of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and employment rights, which has a global vocation demonstrated by having been ratified by 173 States since it was adopted in 1966. Workers' rights need protection and reinforcement. To achieve this aim, international human rights standards can play an important role. The ICESCR is the most important global UN instrument in this respect. It covers a wide range of employment rights, including the right to strike, and has global application. But it is not sufficiently developed and used, and national implementation often needs improvement. Part 1 of the book analyses general issues related to the Covenant, such as context, development, challenges, influences at the global and regional levels, interpretation and procedural elements. Part 2 deals with the specific provisions which are directly linked to the employment relation. The book is based on a thorough analysis, mainly, but not exclusively, of the case law of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR), that is monitoring the national implementation of the Covenant. Together, the chapters in this book will empower academics and practitioners in labour law to find answers to relevant and practical problems in order to better enforce and improve workers' rights. The book is the result of a project by the 'Transnational Trade Union Rights' experts Network (TTUR), linked to the European Trade Union Institute (ETUI).

The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the Employment Relation

This book provides an accessible introduction to the American legal system and is a vital resource to anyone interested in understanding how this social system works. Its focus is on law in practice, the role of the law in American society, and how the social context affects the living law of the United States. It covers the institutions of law creation and application, law in American government, American legal culture and the legal profession, American criminal and civil justice, and civil rights. Now in its fourth edition, the book has been widely used in both undergraduate and graduate courses as an introduction to the legal system. This new edition follows the same structure as the previous editions while providing a thorough updating and reworking of the text. This edition reflects upon what has happened in the years since the third edition was published in 2017, the rise of social media, the strains of climate change, the globalization of risk, the pandemic, and the immigration crisis. The book addresses how these events and evolutions have shaped our fundamental comprehension of the workings of the American legal system today.

An Introduction

American Law

Lex Amicitia draws a long history of the law of friendship - from Aristotle to Derrida - into a contemporary context: scouring the backrooms, bars and ill-lit alcoves, the corridors and side-rooms where the interior engine of institutional decisions operates. The intimate public sphere is fueled by the affects of amity and enmity, identification and rejection, experience and projection in negotiating and deciding the fate of workaday lives. Using the example of law, and specifically of the legal academy in the Anglophone world, this book pieces together the hidden ties and the secret bondings, the erotics and the hostilities that play beneath the surface of public lives. Patiently reconstructing the apparitions of affect and amity as they are glimpsed in marginal moments and off-hours, peripheries and slips, emails and other unintended viscera, the structural role of the laws of friendship, the legal form of compact, concord and contract is reconstructed and expounded.

Lex Amicitia: An Anthropology of the Law of Amity

En el proceso penal moderno, la química forense aparece en casi todos los expedientes: drogas, alcohol, residuos de disparo, explosivos. Sin embargo, pocas veces se entiende realmente qué prueban esos dictámenes... y qué no.
Este libro no es de química. 
Es una guía práctica para operadores jurídicos que necesitan leer, cuestionar y usar la prueba química con criterio, sin dejarse intimidar por tecnicismos ni caer en sobreinterpretaciones que debilitan los casos en juicio.
A lo largo de sus capítulos, el lector aprenderá: qué diferencia existe entre una prueba presuntiva y una confirmatoria, por qué un "positivo" no equivale a culpabilidad, qué errores periciales se repiten en tribunales, cómo contrainterrogar a un perito sin ser químico, cuándo un dictamen es sólido... y cuándo no, y por qué la ciencia no condena sola.
Escrito desde la experiencia real en el ámbito forense y judicial, este libro traduce la química forense a lenguaje jurídico claro, con ejemplos, criterios prácticos y límites bien definidos. No busca desacreditar la ciencia, sino colocarla en su lugar correcto dentro del proceso penal.

Una obra indispensable para fiscales, defensores, asesores jurídicos y juzgadores que quieren usar la prueba científica con rigor, prudencia y eficacia, evitando errores que cuestan casos.

Dans cet essai, l'auteur propose une analyse lucide et engagée des fondements de l'entrepreneuriat africain, en plaçant les petites et moyennes entreprises (PME) au cœur des stratégies de développement du continent. Véritables piliers des économies africaines, les PME contribuent massivement à la création d'emplois, à l'innovation locale et à la résilience sociale, tout en demeurant confrontées à des obstacles structurels persistants. L'essai démontre que les politiques de promotion de l'entrepreneuriat, longtemps construites selon une logique institutionnelle descendante, peinent à produire des effets durables. Trop souvent, les entrepreneurs sont perçus comme de simples bénéficiaires de dispositifs d'aide, alors qu'ils devraient être reconnus comme des acteurs centraux et des co-concepteurs des stratégies publiques. Cette marginalisation freine l'autonomie entrepreneuriale et limite l'impact réel des politiques de soutien. S'appuyant sur une analyse rigoureuse des réalités économiques africaines, l'auteur met en lumière les spécificités juridiques, sociales et culturelles des PME, souvent ignorées par des cadres normatifs importés et inadaptés. Il plaide pour une refondation des politiques de promotion, fondée sur l'éducation entrepreneuriale, l'appropriation d'une idéologie de croissance adaptée aux contextes locaux et la mise en place d'un environnement juridique sécurisé. L'essai insiste également sur l'importance de l'accompagnement post-création et du renforcement des structures d'incubation, afin de permettre aux entrepreneurs de surmonter les difficultés liées à la mise en œuvre de leurs projets. À cet égard, l'émergence d'un droit spécifique aux PME en Afrique apparaît comme une perspective incontournable pour favoriser la formalisation, la croissance et la pérennité des entreprises. En définitive, cet essai invite décideurs publics, entrepreneurs et partenaires au développement à repenser en profondeur les politiques de promotion de l'entrepreneuriat africain, afin d'en faire un véritable moteur de transformation durable, d'innovation et de croissance inclusive au service du continent.
