Routledge Environment and Sustainability Handbooks

This handbook provides a state-of-the-art overview of food and agricultural policy in Europe, moving beyond a nutrition focus, to include the health, social justice and environmental dimensions of the food system.With concerns over the global economy, geopolitical conflicts and the impact on human and planetary health, food policy has emerged as a key policy domain for Europe. Acknowledging that food and agricultural are areas of major concern for many diverse groups in society, often representing competing interests, this handbook provides a systemic and multifaceted overview of the current food and agricultural policy arena in Europe. The handbook utilises a food systems approach, organised into seven sections representing the food cycle from production and processing to distribution and consumption, as well as waste and disposal. Interdisciplinary chapters explore the tensions in policy development between cost and sustainability, industry power versus consumer demands, local supply versus intensive and unsustainable growth, and corporate control versus citizen and workers' rights. Ultimately, this handbook demonstrates the need for what are currently fragmented food and agricultural policies to be unified in order to support global aims of developing sustainable and healthy food systems for all.This handbook will be essential reading for scholars, practitioners, and policy makers interested in researching, theorising, debating, and solving the multifaceted phenomenon of food and agricultural policy.

Hart Studies in Private Law

This ambitious and important book explores the new concept of the doctor-patient relationship, told from the private law perspective. The doctor-patient relationship differs from others in negligence law. Doctors are required to take positive action and, therefore, can be held liable for omissions. However, because actionable damage is almost exclusively confined to physical injury, the significance of a doctor's liability for failing to confer a benefit has gotten lost along the way. This aspect of the doctor's positive duty is overlooked in both the case law and the literature - and, this book identifies it as the principal barrier to protecting interests other than bodily integrity in medical negligence law. The book sets out a novel theoretical framework in which the reconceptualised doctor's 'positive duty to take care' of a patient's interests justifies an expanded concept of actionable damage beyond physical injury - ensuring that the reasons for requiring doctors to act positively are carried through to the damage enquiry. The book identifies that the leading cases causing challenges to coherency in medical negligence are those involving patient choice: Rees v Darlington Memorial Hospital, McFarlane v Tayside Health Board, Meadows v Khan, ACB v Thomson Medical Pte Ltd, Chester v Afshar, Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board, Gregg v Scott, and Philp v Ryan. Rather than treating patient autonomy as a source of doctrinal difficulty, this book offers a new way of thinking about the doctor-patient relationship to accommodate autonomy related interests and real world effects of medical negligence separate from physical injury. The theoretical account of the doctor's positive duty and its consequences for actionable damage reveals what is distinctive about the doctor-patient relationship amongst other relationships giving rise to liability for omissions. It suggests how novel harms in medical negligence might be accommodated - including the potential for tort law in this area to reflect fundamental values in constitutional rights in Ireland and ECHR rights in the UK, and how the non-pecuniary losses could be quantified and compensated. While common law of Ireland and the UK takes centre stage, the analysis draws on other common law jurisdictions and on Irish constitutional law.

A Doctor’s Duty to Take Care

Redefining the Medical Negligence Action

Cornerstone on...

Inquests and inquiries form a distinct area of law in which the aim of the tribunal is to discover what happened, rather than who is right, wrong, or at fault. Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries provides an accessible, go-to guide to this area of practice, useful for both practitioners and parties involved. It looks at the field as a whole, acknowledging the commonalities between inquests and public inquiries, and providing a practical approach to each. The book also covers the field of parliamentary inquiries.

Human Rights Law in Perspective

This book offers an analysis of how the European Court of Human Rights engages with identity and emotion, revealing both the promise and the limitations of human rights law in addressing the complexities of human experience. The book explores how human rights law, often framed as universal and abstract, responds to deeply personal questions of identity, belonging, and emotional impact. Based on a systematic study of over 3,300 judgments, the book shows how the European Court of Human Rights has increasingly made identity central to its reasoning - particularly in cases involving sexuality, ethnicity, and family life. In these areas, the Court acknowledges how state actions shape emotions such as fear, humiliation, and dignity. Yet, in other domains - migration, religion, professional life - the Court avoids emotional engagement, leading to troubling inconsistencies. The book argues that when emotions are excluded from legal reasoning, individuals are reduced to formal entities, stripped of depth and interiority. Combining doctrinal analysis with insights from social theory and psychology, the book presents a new framework for understanding how emotions and identity interact with law. It traces the evolution of identity references across categories and highlights the Court's uneven treatment of emotional harm. This timely and original contribution speaks to legal scholars, practitioners, and theorists interested in human rights, identity politics, and the emotional dimensions of law. It calls for a more responsive and empathetic human rights jurisprudence - one that reflects the lived realities of those it seeks to protect.

Irish Yearbook of International Law

The Irish Yearbook of International Law supports research into Ireland's practice in international affairs and foreign policy, filling a gap in existing legal scholarship. This new volume covers the years 2023, amid growing state actions reflecting raw political and military power across the American continents, in the Middle East and amid ongoing armed conflicts around the world, most notably in Ukraine and in Gaza. Reports also cover topics on human rights in Ireland, international law in Ireland more generally, and the law of the sea. This volume of the Yearbook includes three articles, addressing international commercial contracts, the use of prosecutorial discretion at the International Criminal Court, and digital open-source evidence in regional human rights courts. Finally, the Yearbook also includes four book reviews covering a wide breadth of international law subjects, such as European legal regulation of technology, the morality of the laws of war, the prohibition of the use of force in international law, and sustainability in international trade agreements.

Drawing on new data and case analyses, Ryan J. Rebe provides substantial evidence that justices vote their partisan preferences on election law cases. By focusing specifically on election law, Rebe reveals a consistent pattern of partisanship on the Court. The findings controvert popular perceptions of non-biased decision-making and notions of fundamental fairness. The aggregate analysis shows that justices vote along party-lines in a majority of election law cases, and consensus-building is rare when there is a contentious electoral issue at stake. Exploring topics such as gerrymandering, campaign finance, voter ID laws, and presidential immunity, Rebe demonstrates that Supreme Court decisions often conflict with principles of stare decisis, originalism, and judicial restraint. Rebe also conducts a content analysis of the most controversial election law cases of the past twenty-five years, including Crawford v. Marion County, Citizens United v. FEC, Shelby County v. Holder, and Trump v. United States. In doing so, the book provides a thorough overview of over two decades of election law cases and sheds light on the ways these cases have reshaped America's electoral institutions.
