Pia K: A Lawyer's Guide to Understanding
Hedge Fund, Private Equity, and Venture

A Lawyer's Guide to Understanding Hedge Fund, Private Equity, and Venture Capital Valuation

Speech has become an increasingly central feature of international criminal proceedings, particularly in cases involving senior political or military leaders. The PJI Guidelines are grounded in extensive jurisprudence, empirical research, and scholarly analysis, drawing on decisions from international courts and tribunals as well as broader interdisciplinary insights. Anchored on the fundamental right to freedom of expression, the Guidelines conveys guidelines for securing criminal accountability. In doing so, the book addresses cutting edge issues including disinformation, interpretation, social media, and AI propagated inflammatory and hateful speech, among other topics. It proposes 10 Key Guidelines, including an amendment to Article 25(3)(e) to criminalise intentional, direct and public incitement to any atrocity crime under the Rome Statute. Contributors are: Katharina Braun, Juan Manuel Klein, Damla Yasemin Ipek, and Manuel J. Ventura.

Challenging Prosecutorial Discretion

Róisín Á Costello provides a critical analysis of the ways in which law is portrayed in Irish literature and argues that authors from Ireland (writing in both Irish and English) have consistently used literature as a mechanism to challenge and critique institutional power. In doing so, she argues that Irish literature, and the narratives it has created about law, have been used to re-assert and recomplicate Irish identities at sites of conflict and to interrogate the legitimacy of power and how it is exercised. Drawing on a range of texts including novels, poetry, plays, song and satire, Costello illustrates that Irish literature has acted as a decolonial and intersectional force in critiquing the institution of law and constructing national, linguistic and political identities in Ireland. She traces a pattern in which Irish authors consistently used literature as a lens for legal analysis in Ireland, using their work to address fundamental concerns about the legitimacy of law, the role of doubt in legal proceedings, the need for popular accountability, and the marginalisation of minority groups an identities by formal institutions and system.

Critical Approaches to Institutions, Power and Identity

Law in Irish Literature

When did the federal government's self-appointed, essentially limitless authority over Native America become constitutional?&nbsp;&nbsp;The story they have chosen to tell is wrong. It is time to tell a better story. Thus begins Keith Richotte's playful, unconventional look at Native American and Supreme Court history. At the center of his account is the mystery of a massive federal authority called plenary power.&nbsp;&nbsp;When the Supreme Court first embraced plenary power in the 1880s it did not bother to seek any legal justification for the decision – it was simply rooted in racist ideas about tribal nations. By the 21st century, however, the Supreme Court was telling a different story, with opinions crediting the U.S. Constitution as the explicit source of federal plenary power.&nbsp;&nbsp;So, when did the Supreme Court change its story? Just as importantly, why did it change its story? And what does this change mean for Native America, the Supreme Court, and the rule of law? In a unique twist on legal and Native history, Richotte uses the genre of trickster stories to uncover the answers to these questions and offer an alternative understanding.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Worst Trickster Story Ever Told provides an irreverent, entertaining synthesis of Native American legal history across more than 100 years, reflecting on race, power, and sovereignty along the way. By embracing the subtle, winking wisdom of trickster stories, and centering the Indigenous perspective, Richotte opens up new avenues for understanding this history. We are able, then, to imagine a future that is more just, equitable, and that better fulfills the text and the spirit of the Constitution.

The Worst Trickster Story Ever Told

This book offers an engaging study on the effectiveness and practical application of human rights due diligence in the corporate sphere. As corporate power increases, human rights measures are increasingly being used to restrain this power. One of the most ambitious of these are the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, setting out a framework of human rights due diligence ('HRDD'). Taking a four part approach, the book firstly outlines the conceptual development of HRDD; it secondly puts forward a theoretical framework for it as an accountability process. It then thirdly goes on to provide qualitative case studies of multinational corporations illustrating logics at play concerning the HRDD, before concluding by offering an alternative approach to HRDD to alleviate some of the concerns around accountability. This thoughtful, engaging study will appeal to human rights lawyers, company lawyers and those researching in the field of management.

Edward Chancellor's lively and authoritative study of speculation from early modern times to the present. Sweeping, engaging, and perennially relevant, Devil Take the Hindmost traces the story of financial speculation back from ancient Rome to its revival in the modern world. Edward Chancellor takes a fine-tooth comb to the delirious days of tulipomania in 1630s Holland, "stockjobbing" in London's Exchange Alley, and the infamous South Sea Bubble of 1720-which prompted Sir Isaac Newton to comment, "I can calculate the motions of the heavenly bodies, but not the madness of the people." From the Gilded Age and nineteenth-century railway mania to the Roaring Twenties and the crash of 1929, from junk bonds and the Japanese bubble economy to the day traders of the Information Age, Chancellor tells a fascinating story of human dreams and folly through the ages.
