Four Asian Tigers. Economies of Hong Kong, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan

This landmark collection provides new insights, concepts and techniques to understand and respond to tort claims based on illegal conduct. It is the first comparative study of this difficult field, which has remained contested despite numerous decisions of the highest courts in the common law world. The collection draws on scholars from common law and civilian jurisdictions spanning Argentina, Australia, Brazil, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, South Africa and Sweden. Together they set out fact patterns, and justifications for tort liability to illustrate the coherence and unity that exists when courts address such claims. While common law legal systems have developed a specific defence of illegality for some of those fact patterns, civilian jurisdictions tend to see illegality operating, if at all, through the existing components of tort liability. The book explains how these different approaches have been reached, how they work, and what they reveal about reasoning in tort.

WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE 2024 SHORTLISTED FOR FOYLES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025 AN OBSERVER BEST BOOK OF THE CENTURY SO FARLike a long winter's dream, this haunting and visionary new novel from 2024 Nobel Prize winner Han Kang takes us on a journey from contemporary South Korea into its painful history'One of the most profound and skilled writers working on the contemporary world stage' Deborah LevyBeginning one morning in December, We Do Not Part traces the path of Kyungha as she travels from the city of Seoul into the forests of Jeju Island, to the home of her old friend Inseon. Hospitalized following an accident, Inseon has begged Kyungha to hasten there to feed her beloved pet bird, who will otherwise die.Kyungha takes the first plane to Jeju, but a snowstorm hits the island the moment she arrives, plunging her into a world of white. Beset by icy wind and snow squalls, she wonders if she will arrive in time to save the bird - or even survive the terrible cold which envelops her with every step. As night falls, she struggles her way to Inseon's house, unaware as yet of the descent into darkness which awaits her.There, the long-buried story of Inseon's family surges into light, in dreams and memories passed from mother to daughter, and in a painstakingly assembled archive documenting a terrible massacre on the island seventy years before.We Do Not Part is a hymn to friendship, a eulogy to the imagination and above all an indictment against forgetting.Translated by e. yaewon and Paige Aniyah Morris'A vital voice and a writer of extraordinary humanity. Her work is a gift to us all' Max Porter'A remarkable novelist who reflects our modern condition with courage, imagination, and keen intelligence' Min Jin LeeSHORTLISTED FOR THE WARWICK PRIZE FOR WOMEN IN TRANSLATION

We Do Not Part

A landmark exploration of women-led communities worldwide and what they can teach us about new ways to live, think and govern, from BBC global correspondent Megha Mohan.'An inspiration for the future' GLORIA STEINEM 'Essential reading' VOGUE 'Thoroughly researched and intelligently reported' THE TIMES 'The best of journalism' LYSE DOUCETSociety isn't working for women - or any of us.But what if the rules were different?Imagine a world in which women have all the power. A world in which they work together to shape their societies and their futures.In reality, women's communities have always existed, and continue to thrive. In this vital and ground-breaking book, Megha Mohan goes in search of their roots, discovering a vibrant global history, brought together here for the first time. She also takes us into today's women-led spaces, where women live on their own terms, showing us how we can rethink society for new ways of living, working and collaborating.Through extensive research and exclusive first-hand reporting and inspired by her great-grandmother's own matrilineal community in South India, Mohan introduces us to fascinating and diverse groups of women. From the controversial feminist online trolls of South Korea to older women co-housing in Paris and North London and the Rain Queens of South Africa, this is a truly global look at women's community.Essential reading for anyone interested in our collective histories, cultures, economics and governance, Herlands shows the power and possibility of new ways of living - and leading - for us all.

Lessons From Societies Where Women Make the Rules

Herlands

This fourth title in this innovative series establishes connections between jurisdictions which would not conventionally 'speak' to one another, on topics which would not otherwise have been discussed. Over four parts, it looks at questions of: trusts actors; trusts applications; trusts environments; and trusts futures. Chapters are co-written by two (or more) authors, to give a novel perspective on comparative trusts law. This approach allows for a rigorous, systematic exploration of the varied ways in which trusts law manifests across the Asia-Pacific region. An expert and welcome new addition to this leading book series in comparative private law.

Asia-Pacific Trusts Law, Volume 4

Studies in International Law

This book offers a foundational rethinking of how international law engages with non-state effective territorial entities - territories that, while legally part of a recognised state, are de facto governed by non-state actors or other states. These entities - ranging from ISIL-controlled areas in Syria to the contested territory of Crimea, the autonomous Somaliland, and Taiwan - occupy an increasingly prominent place in global politics, yet remain inadequately addressed in legal doctrine. Rather than assessing these territories through the binary lens of statehood, the book begins by assuming their non-state status and asks: what legal capacity and responsibilities do such entities hold under international law? It considers their obligations toward both other states and the populations under their control, and explores the broader implications for concepts like sovereignty, territorial integrity, and recognition. Drawing on four case studies across a spectrum of state-likeness, the book moves beyond isolated analyses of conflict or self-determination to offer a more holistic account of what these entities reveal about the limits and possibilities of the current international legal framework. It argues for a more functional, capacity-based understanding of legal responsibility that acknowledges the realities of territorial control without forgoing the notion and role of statehood. Combining doctrinal clarity with pragmatic ambition, this book challenges the state-centric foundations of international law and offers a roadmap for engaging with one of its most pressing contemporary challenges: the legal accommodation of non-state territorial authority in a world still structured around states.

Re-Thinking Capacity and Responsibility in International Law

Non-State Effective Territorial Entities

"A powerful novel set in a Hong Kong that feels remarkably universal." —Mohsin Hamid, author of Exit West "A dazzling, page-turning novel...Gripping, specific, important, and highly satisfying.” —Elif Batuman, author of The Idiot and Either/Or A powerful, award-winning novel that follows the lives of two women as democracy starts to crumble in Hong Kong On a weekend morning, college roommates Ah Lei and Panda wake up with very different reactions to the night before. They have been chased and tear-gassed in the streets of their city after joining tens of thousands of others to protest a national security law that would effectively spell the end of democracy in Hong Kong. Ah Lei can’t get out of bed, her heart heavy with the lingering images of the police and the violence on the streets, and her worries about the future of her hometown. Panda, whose resistance is no less ardent, puts on a sundress, lines her eyes, and urges Ah Lei to join her for brunch. While the demonstrations rage, the routine of life also persists for Ah Lei, Panda, and people in their orbits. They attend family gatherings, fight with their mothers, try and fail to focus at work on Mondays, and make time for dinner dates and app hookups. But the looming political tension and anxiety for the future transform such everyday encounters. In the span of a few months, life as they know it seems to become a mirage: the comfort of air-conditioned shopping malls is disrupted by bloodshed; tear gas and the sounds of rubber bullets amid neon signs strangely evoke happier memories of summer night fireworks. Gigi L. Leung’s visceral novel Everyday Movement reveals existential questions that interrupt normal life: belonging, patriotism, and the meaningfulness of an electoral democracy, as well as the pampering sense of normalcy created by consumerism. Fiery and tender, Leung’s writing captures the heartbreak, turmoil, and rebirth in bearing witness to and engaging with a shattering reality.

Everyday Movement

"A love story spanning multiple millenniums, life-forms and variations on immortality, the book posits Victorian poetry as a weapon of empire, insists on nature's resilience in the face of genocide, and manipulates prose into something like a new language....Toward Eternity recognizes both the building and burning of bridges." -New York Times*A PARADE, LITHUB, and CHICAGO REVIEW OF BOOKS Best New Book. *An AUDIOFILE EARPHONES AWARD WINNER.Negotiating the terrain of Kazuo Ishiguro’s Klara and the Sun and Emily St. John Mandel’s Sea of Tranquility, a brilliant, haunting speculative novel from a #1 New York Times bestselling translator that sets out to answer the question: What does it mean to be human in a world where technology is quickly catching up to biology?In a near-future world, a new technological therapy is quickly eradicating cancer. The body’s cells are entirely replaced with nanites—robot or android cells which not only cure those afflicted but leaves them virtually immortal.Literary researcher Yonghun teaches an AI how to understand poetry and creates a living, thinking machine he names Panit, meaning Beloved, in honor of his husband. When Yonghun—himself a recipient of nanotherapy—mysteriously vanishes into thin air and then just as suddenly reappears, the event raises disturbing questions. What happened to Yonghun, and though he’s returned, is he really himself anymore?When Dr. Beeko, the scientist who holds the patent to the nanotherapy technology, learns of Panit, he transfers its consciousness from the machine into an android body, giving it freedom and life. As Yonghun, Panit, and other nano humans thrive—and begin to replicate—their development will lead them to a crossroads and a choice with existential consequences.Exploring the nature of intelligence and the unexpected consequences of progress, the meaning of personhood and life, and what we really have to fear from technology and the future, Toward Eternity is a gorgeous, thought-provoking novel&nbsp;that challenges the notion of what makes us human—and how love&nbsp;survives even the end of that humanity.

Schriften zum öffentlichen, europäischen und internationalen Recht

Focus on Human Rights
In this book Professors Jau-hwa Chen of Soochow University, Taipei, and Eibe Riedel of the University of Mannheim present 10 contributions from a joint human rights project. The problems faced by marginalized and disadvantaged individuals and groups are examined, with an emphasis on everyday life experiences. Persistent human rights violations are scoped, such as those relating to LGBTIQ+ issues, women’s sexual and reproductive health, and the social exclusion and marginalization of Indigenous tribes in Taiwan. Other contributions address forced evictions and housing rights, unresolved transitional justice issues, as well as constitutional court jurisprudence in Taiwan.
Finally, as a warning, the book portrays negative developments in Hungary, where a shift away from parliamentary democratic representation toward increasingly authoritarian rule can be observed, and examines how opposition action outside Parliament may nevertheless succeed despite state interventions.
Menschenrechte im Fokus
In diesem englischsprachigen&nbsp; Buch präsentieren die Professoren Jau-hwa Chen von der Soochow University, Taipeh, und Eibe Riedel von der Universität Mannheim zehn Beiträge aus einem gemeinsamen Menschenrechtsprojekt. Die Probleme, mit denen marginalisierte und benachteiligte Individuen und Gruppen konfrontiert sind, werden unter besonderer Berücksichtigung ihrer Alltagserfahrungen untersucht. Auch anhaltende Menschenrechtsverletzungen werden analysiert, beispielsweise im Zusammenhang mit LGBTIQ+-Themen, der sexuellen und reproduktiven Gesundheit von Frauen sowie der sozialen Ausgrenzung und Marginalisierung indigener Stämme in Taiwan.
Weitere Beiträge behandeln Zwangsräumungen und Wohnrechte, ungelöste Fragen der Übergangsjustiz sowie die Rechtsprechung der Verfassungsgerichte in Taiwan. Abschließend stellt das Buch als Warnung negative Entwicklungen in Ungarn dar, wo eine Abkehr von parlamentarischer demokratischer Vertretung hin zu zunehmend autoritärer Herrschaft zu beobachten ist, und untersucht, wie Oppositionsaktionen außerhalb des Parlaments trotz staatlicher Eingriffe dennoch erfolgreich sein können.

An instant New York Times ¿¿¿¿¿¿bestseller!From R.F. Kuang, the acclaimed #1 New York Times bestselling author of Katabasis and Yellowface, comes a wryly humorous and profoundly moving coming-of-age novel that grapples with grief, language, and culture shock—all set against the backdrop of an unforgettable summer in Taipei.College freshman Lily Chen is off to spend the summer in Taipei at an intensive language program like so many Chinese American students before her, hoping to connect with the culture she inherited but never fully understood. But a promising start quickly unravels. Her classes are grueling, her roommate is driving her insane, and a reckless trip to the hot springs with a guy she barely knows soon has her classmates viciously gossiping. She feels adrift, a foreigner in a country she thought would feel like home.Then shocking news arrives: Lily’s grandfather has passed away. The loss forces her to grapple with now-unanswerable questions about her family history. As Lily grieves, she’s drawn into a journey of self-discovery—piecing together memories, stories, and silences over a series of hilarious and devastating attempts at connection.Taipei Story asks: What if the diaspora fantasy of homecoming never comes true? What if learning a language can’t bring you any closer to the people you’re trying to reach? What if you search for your family’s history, but your family doesn’t want to share? What if you wait too long to ask the right questions? As Lily struggles for answers, her summer becomes a poignant search for understanding—of herself, her family, and the meaning of home.
