This book discusses some of the most important issues facing administrative law and related doctrines. Leading public law scholars from across the common law world have contributed chapters to recognise the exceptional scholarship and career of Matthew Groves, Distinguished Professor at Deakin University, Australia. Over the last century, the power of the administrative state has grown immensely and the scope of administrative law as a field of inquiry has grown with it. This collection of essays provides an up-to-date analysis of some of the most important issues in administrative law in the 2020s, including: access to justice issues; the role, purpose and future of ombuds institutions and tribunals; government liability within and beyond judicial review; integrity bodies; 'lawfare'; the role of policies in government decisionmaking; and the tension between military and civilian systems of justice. These topics have been central to the work and career of Matthew Groves. Readers interested in public law - whether practitioners, researchers or students - will discover a wealth of engaging and thought-provoking considerations of the most topical current issues in administrative law by a selection of prominent academics.

Trusts and Estates Law Handbook

What is the significance of sex characteristics and gender identity in public law? Why are these personal attributes important for the legal relationship between the person and public authorities? What happens when people do not conform to the assumptions about sexual anatomy and gender identity that are presupposed in the law? Gender Diversity in Public Law explores these questions through an extensive analysis of jurisdictions across Europe, Latin America, and Asia. By integrating comparative law with gender and constitutional studies, the volume examines how gender diversity is both recognized and regulated in different legal systems. This book shows that sex characteristics and gender identity are central to public law. It demonstrates that legal systems are not based solely on the existence of men and women. Instead, they rely on the presence of men, women, and nonbinary individuals, each characterized by specific physical and identity traits. When people exhibit sex characteristics and/or a gender identity that defy legal assumptions and definitions, public law intervenes and actively shapes the subjects it requires. At the same time, legal systems are gradually becoming more inclusive of gender diversity, and this book investigates how emerging models of recognition are transforming public law to recognize gender-diverse people. Gender Diversity in Public Law offers a comparative perspective on the complex relationship between gender diversity and public law, shedding light on a crucial aspect of this field-one that has remained largely understudied until now.

Between Recognition and Control

Gender Diversity in Public Law

This volume explores in detail the use of the doctrine of good faith in the common law when interpreting contracts and resolving disputes. Building on the findings of Good Faith and Relational Contracts (Hart, 2024) the book discusses the implications of relational contract theory and good faith for issues such as liquidated damages clauses, discretion to terminate a contract, contract forfeiture, employment contracts and contractual remedies. The author discusses the potential for good faith to unite a number of currently disparate contract law and equitable principles into a coherent framework, providing an opportunity to question and jettison some archaic aspects of existing doctrine that are no longer defensible. Ambitious and thoughtful, this is a significant statement on the role of good faith in private law.

9 in 10 women experience ill mental health from poor life-work balance This book is for working women who feel dissatisfied with life, and who want to reinvent themselves to lead successful and fulfilling lives, in their personal life and at work. Our changing and challenging times have left many of us, and especially women, feeling burnt out, chronically worried and uncertain. At the same time, it's difficult to overstate just how much attitudes towards emotional wellbeing have changed in the last five years. As more and more of us struggle about how to exist in this unstable environment, question arise such as: How do you behave if you have a leadership role, given the unattractive role models we see currently in the US and elsewhere? What do you do as a mother when your children tell you they learnt at school that there will be a world war? The change is that women want a life that has meaning and purpose and there's more willingness to call out prejudice and predatory behaviour. Yet many of the same old problems persist. All of this is a case for stressing the importance of emotional connection, creativity and open-mindedness: attitudes and behaviours that will be at the heart of this timely book from pioneer coach, Jenny Rogers.

Your Time

Cet ouvrage juridique fondamental de 1921 présente une traduction rigoureuse en langue française du Code Civil Néerlandais, enrichie par sa mise en concordance avec le Code Civil Belge, une démarche essentielle pour la pratique du droit comparé et l'exercice de la profession notariale et judiciaire à l'époque. Le texte a été actualisé pour refléter les lois les plus récentes des Pays-Bas concernant le droit de la famille et le droit social, incluant notamment les réformes sur la puissance paternelle, la tutelle, le contrat de travail et la recherche de paternité.Le Livre Premier, 'Des Personnes', établit les bases du statut juridique des individus, détaillant les formalités de l'état civil (naissance, mariage, décès) et les règles régissant les Néerlandais et les étrangers. Un accent particulier est mis sur le **Droit Matrimonial**, décrivant avec précision les conditions de validité du mariage, les empêchements, les oppositions, ainsi que les effets de la communauté légale de biens et des conventions prénuptiales. Les procédures de divorce et de dissolution du mariage après séparation de corps sont expliquées, notamment les conséquences sur les enfants mineurs et l'obligation de pensions alimentaires. La législation sur la puissance paternelle, la décharge et la déchéance, ainsi que la tutelle des mineurs et l'interdiction des majeurs pour cause de démence ou prodigalité, est intégralement retranscrite, offrant un aperçu exhaustif des lois de protection des incapables.Le Livre Deuxième, 'Des Biens', définit les distinctions juridiques des choses (meubles, immeubles) et expose les mécanismes d'acquisition de la propriété et de la possession. Il détaille les **droits réels** (usufruit, droit de superficie, emphytéose) et les règles complexes de voisinage. Les titres sur les successions ab intestat et testamentaires fixent les règles de la dévolution successorale, la portion légitime des héritiers réservataires (descendants, ascendants, enfants naturels reconnus) et les modalités de réduction des libéralités excessives. La traduction inclut les dispositions spécifiques aux enfants naturels et aux règles de partage.Le Livre Troisième est dédié au **Droit des Obligations et des Contrats**. Il couvre les fondements de l'obligation civile (donation, vente, échange, louage, prêt, rente viagère, cautionnement) et les causes d'extinction (paiement, novation, compensation, prescription). Une section substantielle est consacrée aux **Personnes Morales** et aux **Contrats d'Ouvrage**, notamment le contrat de travail (réglementation des salaires, amendes, résiliation) et le rôle des architectes et entrepreneurs. Enfin, les **privilèges, le gage et l'hypothèque** sont définis comme sûretés et causes légitimes de préférence des créanciers, avec un détail des règles d'inscription hypothécaire et de la responsabilité des conservateurs.

Harnessing Open Source Evidence in Kenya

Accountability for Human Rights Violations

This book explores the intricate terrain of international religious freedom discourse. It examines the evolution and controversies surrounding the formulation and interpretation of the freedom of religion or belief as a universal right within the United Nations. From legal and philosophical standpoints to the political dimensions of the subject, the book navigates through the complex terrain, shedding light on challenges to the universality and non-discriminatory implementation of this fundamental freedom. Beyond theoretical and legal debates, the study reveals how actors within the United Nations have 'defamed ' the freedom of religion or belief, reshaping its interpretation away from its original 1948 objectives. The book explores the dynamic interplay of postmodern views, legal intricacies, and political perspectives, contributing to a potential diminishment of the normative force of related legal provisions. It addresses critical topics including religious tolerance, blasphemy, defamation of religion, and apostasy, offering a comprehensive understanding of the evolving landscape of international human rights discourse. This is an indispensable resource for scholars, policymakers, and anyone seeking a profound insight into the challenges and transformations shaping the global pursuit of religious freedom.

Hart Studies in Private Law

This book provides a comprehensive study of two parallel notions of civil and common law: cause and consideration. It does this in three ways; with historical, comparative, and functional perspectives. Aspects of cause and consideration are hotly contested by contract lawyers and this book will bring clarity by looking at the English and Continental positions. Key areas of focus include: enforceability, questions of legality and morality, contractual justice, and the correction of unjustified property displacements. Bringing together a team of experts, the book discusses (in some cases for the first time in English) complex questions of both academic and practical importance.

Landmark Cases

From Van Gend en Loos and Costa v ENEL to Cassis de Dijon and Consten and Grundig, Landmark Cases in EU Law explores the most important and well-known EU law cases in two volumes. These volumes show how the European Court of Justice has played a fundamental role in the construction of the European Union in the past 70 years. Many EU 'landmark' cases have been controversial, yet no-one can deny that they have been essential in defining the Union legal order as we find it today. Volume 2 explores the 'substantive' cases that have shaped the Union's internal market, its competition law as well as its internal and external policies. Each of the twenty cases within this volume is placed in its historical and doctrinal context, and each chapter also presents the history of its reception by the Court and academia.

Constitutionalism in Asia

This book presents an in-depth interrogation of the theory and application of the Basic Structure Doctrine in the Federation of Malaysia. The Basic Structure Doctrine, famously introduced in the 1973 Indian Supreme decision of Kesavananda Bharati v State of Kerala AIR - which held that certain core or fundamental features in the Constitution of India could not be amended by Parliament even if it met all procedural requirements - was initially rejected when it was first argued in Malaysia in the 1975 case of Loh Kooi Choon v Government of Malaysia and lay dormant for the next three decades. Judicial winds shifted in 2010 when Malaysia's apex court, the Federal Court, cited Kesavananda with approval in the case of Sivarasa Rasiah v Badan Peguam Malaysia &amp; Anor, and observed that it was 'clear from the way in which the Federal Constitution is constructed that there are certain features that constitute its basic fabric' and that 'any statute (including one amending the Constitution) that offends the basic structure may be struck down as unconstitutional.' In a quick succession of cases, the Federal Court cemented this doctrine in Malaysia's jurisprudence and deployed it to defend the court's judicial power. These widely-publicised cases generated much debate beyond the legal fraternity and judiciary and often polarised different sectors of Malaysian society. This collection of essays responds to this extremely important debate on the limits of constitutional amendments as a form of constitution-making in Malaysia by considering the theory behind the Basic Structure Doctrine and critically examining how it has been harnessed by the Federal Court and by other political actors - most notably Islamists and secularists; and royalists and republicans - on the ground.
