Supreme Court Decisions on Separation of Powers, Federalism, and Economic Rights

1. The Supreme Court and Judicial Power.- 2. The Presidency and Presidential Power.- 3. Congress and Congressional Power.- 4. Federalism and Federal-State Relations.- 5. Americans' Economic Rights.

An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on four years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

Surveillance, Care, and the Policing of Violent Digital Images

Facing the Child

This book defines the substance over form doctrine in Tax Law and sets clear limits on its application within the Brazilian Constitutional Tax System. Grounded in Brazilian constitutional principles and illustrated with case examples, the analysis develops a general framework that is extensible to other liberal democracies, testing the doctrine’s compatibility with constitutional principles while delineating boundaries for legitimate use. Drawing on a paradigmatic case from Brazilian Tax Law, Chapter One offers a precise definition of the substance over form argument and examines each component to distinguish it from accounting based approaches to taxation, debates on the relationship between Tax Law and Private Law, the defeasibility of tax rules, the rejection of qualification nominalism, and the principle of material truth; it also maps points of contact with interpretations of “form” as requirements for the existence or validity of legal transactions or as essential elements of those transactions, and presents multiple examples of the doctrine’s use in Brazilian Tax Law. Chapter Two critically refutes three common justifications for the prevalence of substance over form in Brazil—broad notions of simulation, the principle of contributive capacity, and economic substance—and then analyzes eight constitutional principles that favor a priori formal qualification criteria in tax matters: the rule of law, democracy, separation of powers, legality, legal certainty, human dignity, freedom, and equality. Chapter Three outlines practical limits on substance over form arguments by identifying preference rules for resolving conflicts among qualification criteria for facts, acts, and legal transactions in Brazilian Tax Law—whether in “form versus form” or “form versus substance” structures—thus providing a rigorous, constitutionally grounded roadmap for courts, tax authorities, and practitioners focused on Brazilian Tax Law, the Constitutional Tax System, economic substance, formal qualification, and legal certainty. Chapter Four compares the definition and criteria for applying the substance-over-form argument, as established in light of examples from Brazilian Tax Law, with key cases of this argument’s application in other countries. The aim is to outline, even if only preliminarily, the limits of the applicability of the theses presented in this work to other legal systems.

Form and Substance in Tax Law

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This book articulates and defends a sceptical general account of parliamentary sovereignty.

It challenges the orthodox approach to this fundamental doctrine by making three key heretical claims. First, there are some laws that Parliament cannot make. Second, there are several ways in which primary legislation can be overridden or set aside by institutions other than Parliament. And third, Parliament has the power to bind itself as to the substance of future legislation. All three positions are developed using arguments which depend on existing legal materials and are compatible with the normative underpinnings of the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty. 

The book combines theoretical and doctrinal analysis. The theoretical part of the book situates Parliament's authority to legislate in the broader context of an examination of constitutional and political authority. It develops a conception of the ways in which competing views on the scope of Parliament's legislative authority are mediated into law. The doctrinal part of the book reconsiders Parliament's legal position. It proposes a novel conception of Parliament's power to bind itself, rooted in the idea of commitments. It defends the existence of a judicial power to impose narrowly conceived freestanding limits on Parliament's law-making authority, rooted in the rule of law. Finally, the book examines the challenges posed to parliamentary sovereignty by both its internal procedures and the devolved legislatures.

Public Administration Reforms in the Western Balkans

This book honours a remarkable legal thinker, David Feldman, whose influence on public law and on multiple generations of legal scholars and practitioners has been profound. It provides a unique set of insights into some of the most topical and enduring questions in public law (broadly conceived), through the reflections of a stellar line-up of contributors on key dimensions of David Feldman's rich body of work. Each chapter constitutes an original and important contribution to the field, taking David Feldman's seminal writings as a starting-point and developing contemporary, distinctive analytical perspectives. Like David Feldman's work itself, the book ranges across - and acknowledges and explores the porous relationships between - constitutional law, administrative law and human rights and civil liberties.

The Mosaic of Public Law

This collection explores the relationship between race, racism, and human rights law. It seeks to illuminate, in particular, how the European Court of Human Rights articulates the category of race, how human rights are experienced (differently) by racial minorities, and whether the European Convention on Human Rights has the tools to recognise and address racial harms. By centring race, it considers how Convention rights would look through the lens of race and ultimately interrogates if human rights law is part of the solution or part of the problem. In pursuing these inquiries, the collection brings together two fields of scholarship that have largely developed independently of each other, namely law and race, and European human rights law. Drawing upon rich expertise from theorists and human rights scholars, it is the first of its kind to systematically analyse race and racism in relation to a wide range of themes in European human rights law, including state violence, terrorism, privacy, protest, migration, hate speech, religion, domestic abuse, reproductive freedom, medicine, education, and climate change.

Race, Racism, and the European Convention on Human Rights

This pioneering book examines the key factors shaping targeted public procurement within Canadian federal departments, focusing specifically on two significant social procurement policies: the Federal Contractors Program and the Procurement Strategy for Aboriginal Businesses. By investigating the implementation and effectiveness of these policies, the book addresses an important gap in the existing literature and offers new insights into the role of government procurement in advancing social policy objectives. It demonstrates how public procurement can contribute to broader goals of inclusion, equity, and social justice in Canada.The practical contribution of this book lies in the case study insights that illuminate the successes and challenges faced during the policy implementation phase. These findings are invaluable for federal government departments in Canada, as well as for other Commonwealth countries, offering a framework for understanding how targeted procurement can support socio-economic objectives.This research is particularly relevant to developed countries like Canada and Australia, which share similar political, cultural, and economic contexts. With the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has disproportionately impacted vulnerable communities, this book highlights the potential of social procurement as a strategy to create employment opportunities for marginalized groups.The findings benefit a wide range of stakeholders, including regulators, policymakers, procurement practitioners, and researchers. This book provides a new framework for assessing public procurement practices, which could serve as a tool for improving employment equity and setting best practices in procurement processes. It is essential reading for academics and policymakers aiming to enhance socio-economic outcomes through targeted public procurement.

Inclusion of Social Services in Public Procurement

Hart Studies in Security and Justice

This book argues that UK national security powers remain vulnerable to abuse and lack reliable human rights protections. It assesses the UK's turn away from largely secret Executive-made UK national security powers towards statutory law to regulate national security protection. The shift follows exposure of Executive abuse of self-regulated powers and the domestication of human rights requirements derived from the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). National security powers are now meant to be subject to democratic oversight, independent review and legal safeguards. Parliament has created expansive statutory national security powers based on Executive assurances they would comply with such requirements and, in many cases, be subject to robust judicial review. The result is a dramatic revision of the judicial role in the national security context, accompanied by a proliferation of specialist national security regimes, hybrid judge-led oversight bodies, as well as the spread of secret courts and other procedural innovations claimed to enable searching judicial scrutiny. Blending theoretical, doctrinal, comparative and historical analysis, this book shows that UK judges are subjecting national security powers to more scrutiny than ever, and this has at times been rigorous. However, despite procedural innovations to enable factual scrutiny, the standard of review applied in national security cases tends to dissolve into rationality review. Moreover, judges are increasingly rejecting their role as principal national security safeguards, as assigned to them by Parliament. Instead, this book argues, many are returning to upholding a form of Executive sovereignty in the national security domain.

Digital Rule of Law

Explores pivotal state and federal firearms cases and traces the conflicting legal opinions that have made the second amendment so controversial. One of the most controversial aspects of the U.S. constitution, the Second Amendment continues to divide lawmakers and the general public alike. The Second Amendment has long been the subject of myriad court cases, at both the state and federal levels. In this valuable sourcebook, close examination of these court decisions demystifies the controversy surrounding gun rights and regulations. Chronologically presenting actual court decisions from the early 1800s through the present alongside contextual information and analysis, Donald J. Campbell traces the conflicting legal opinions that have led to our current understanding of the Second Amendment. It highlights the amendment's two major controversies: the individual right versus collective right debate and the incorporation of the Second Amendment by the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Chapters also thoroughly examine the most influential Supreme Court Cases that dominate popular discussions of the amendment, such as United States v. Miller, District of Columbia v. Heller, McDonald v. City of Chicago, and NYSRPA v. Bruen.

Defining the Right to Keep and Bear Arms

The Second Amendment in Court

This book is an insightful, thought-provoking study of one of the world's most important courts. There is no doubt that the European Court of Justice has had a transformative effect on EU Law, but not without controversy. 

This book explores these criticisms, asking if concerns over judicial activism, unconventional interpretative methods, conflicts with national courts and over-reach are justified. Drawing on the expertise of leading commentators in their sectors, its ambitious scope explores the question from across the spectrum of EU Law. Its analysis includes the political dimension, giving the fullest understanding of the environment in which the Court and its judgments have operated.
