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.

Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

This seminal volume provides a rigorous doctrinal analysis of contemporary slavery through the lens of criminal law and legal dogmatics. It addresses the modern paradox of universal prohibition coexisting with thriving exploitation, offering a robust instrument for law interpretation in both domestic and international courts.
The treatise is organized into four sections. Section I establishes conceptual foundations, diagnosing slavery as an organic product of structural vulnerability within the global neoliberal model rather than a historical anomaly. It further provides a profound constitutionalist perspective on human dignity, a concept essential for a comprehensive understanding of slavery.
Section II maps international standards, tracing the evolution of Article 4 of the ECHR and ILO benchmarks. It elucidates the critical shift from legal ownership to the de facto exercise of powers attaching to ownership, maintaining the severity threshold required to distinguish human rights violations from mere labour malpractice.
A cornerstone of the work is the Anti-Slavery Model Legislation (The Guide to Domestic Legislation) in Section III. This template defines and provides penal frameworks for ten stand-alone forms of exploitation, including slavery, servitude, and forced labour. This section also offers comparative analyses of European and South American legal landscapes.
Section IV addresses institutions of heightened criminal relevance, including the non-punishment provision for victims, complexities in global supply chains, and the challenges of “borderless” criminal jurisdiction. It tackles corporate “ubiquity” and “forum shopping,” proposing models to ensure accountability in fragmented productive networks.
By assembling preeminent legal scholars and practitioners, this book transcends sociological description to provide the dogmatic precision required to narrow the space of impunity. It serves as an indispensable resource for understanding how diverse jurisdictions regulate the most heinous affronts to human freedom and legal personality.

Bridging Legal Systems

Comparative Law and Global Justice

This volume addresses the important, but under-noticed, question of the impact of state size and scale for constitutional law and governance.Often, the best way to understand the effect of scale is to examine states where scale is demonstrably lacking. Doing so allows a form of 'reflective' comparison that provides greater insight and clarity into the significance of state size, and constitutional scale, as factors affecting a range of constitutional outcomes. As such, the collection brings together scholars from a wide range of jurisdictions, living and working across the Global South and North, to focus on the lessons from a range of small states and jurisdictions in this context. Attention is devoted to the constitutional experiences of such states and jurisdictions in Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, the Caribbean and Oceania. The volume also explicitly invites critical reflection on, and problemisation, of the issues of line-drawing and boundary definition around notions of state and jurisdictional size.It will be of interest to audiences working in and interested in small states generally, as well as a broader comparative audience interested in issues of scale in constitutional design and implementation.

International Law in Asia

This book examines the legal frameworks governing online safety in the Asia-Pacific, a region marked by diverse legal systems, rapid digital transformation, and varying levels of regulatory intervention. As cyber threats—including online harassment, misinformation, child exploitation, deepfake technology, cyberstalking, and personal data breaches—continue to escalate, governments across the region are busy strengthening their legal responses. While legal responses are ongoing, there is a scarcity of scholarly materials to analyse these responses from doctrinal and comparative legal perspectives.By drawing on case law, legislative texts, policy reports, and interviews with legal experts, the book provides a multidisciplinary analysis of how governments in the Asia-Pacific will approach online safety regulation in the coming years. It also incorporates comparative legal tables, case law summaries, enforcement case studies, and graphical representations of regulatory models to enhance accessibility and practical relevance for readers.As digital governance becomes increasingly complex, online safety laws in the Asia-Pacific will continue to evolve in response to emerging cyber threats and technological advancements. This book contributes to the ongoing academic and policy discourse by providing a systematic, forward-looking examination of the region’s legal frameworks. Through rigorous legal analysis and policy evaluation, the book offers crucial insights for shaping more effective, harmonised, and human rights-compliant online safety regulations in the Asia-Pacific.

Artificial Intelligence and the Rule of Law

Chapters focusing on doctrinal, social, technological, philosophical, historical, and economic stances are carefully paired with fruitful discussions about bespoke standards for addressing the ever-evolving issue of algorithmic decision-making, such as enhanced safety, protection of fundamental rights, sustainability of the rule of law, and redress of algorithmic wrongs.

Sustainable Development Goals Series

In democratic societies, the protection of journalistic sources stands as one of the most fundamental safeguards of press freedom. Without the ability to guarantee confidentiality, journalists cannot effectively investigate abuses of power, expose corruption, or provide the public with information essential for democratic accountability. Yet in an era increasingly defined by democratic backsliding, authoritarian resurgence, digital surveillance, and growing pressures on independent media, the protection of sources has become more fragile and more urgent than ever before.
This volume offers a timely and comprehensive examination of one of the most pressing challenges facing journalism, law, and democracy in the twenty-first century. Bringing together an international group of scholars from Europe, Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, and Asia, it explores the legal, political, technological, and ethical dimensions of source protection across diverse constitutional systems and media environments.
The contributors examine international human rights frameworks, European Union regulation, whistleblower protection regimes, comparative constitutional practice, and landmark national case studies, while also addressing emerging threats posed by mass surveillance, digital platforms, cyber insecurity, and authoritarian governance. The volume further expands the discussion through philosophical reflections on anonymity, practical perspectives from investigative journalists, and new approaches to protecting vulnerable and marginalized voices in conflict reporting.
Combining interdisciplinary scholarship with global comparative analysis, this book demonstrates that protecting journalistic sources is not simply a professional privilege of the press, but a structural condition for democracy itself.
This volume is essential reading for scholars, policymakers, journalists, and anyone concerned with the future of free expression in the digital age.
