Landry J: From Catwalk to Courtroom

From Catwalk to Courtroom

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.

Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries

Should we give up privacy to fight disease, for national security, or to help train AI systems? Recent crises, from the Covid-19 pandemic to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, from Gaza and Afghanistan to the seemingly unstoppable rise of AI, have put privacy under severe pressure. Privacy in Crisis argues the opposite: these crises show that privacy needs to be protected even more. Privacy in Crisis looks at vital current issues: at political manipulation and misinformation, government surveillance, racial tension, hybrid and cyberwarfare (and real wars, such as those in Ukraine and Gaza), the overwhelming power of the internet giants, and surveillance society, and how interference with privacy is key in all of them. It shows how specific crises bring many of these issues together in perfect storms of privacy invasion. The different threats to our privacy revealed by these crises tell parallel stories and are inextricably linked. There are common themes and common technologies - the threats involve the same data, the same profiling systems and the same approaches. In many cases the systems are run or owned by the same small set of companies, controlled by the same few people. Addressing them is difficult but possible - this essential book outlines how.

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.

Anthem Environment and Sustainability Initiative

This textbook is designed to introduce the reader to important and emerging issues in contemporary environmental law, policy, economics, and science. It explains the roles and interactions of Congress, federal agencies, state governments, and the courts in protecting the environment and public health from pollution. Topics include common law; administrative law; the role of environmental impact assessments and endangered species protection; and the principal legislation and court decisions dealing with greenhouse gas emissions, conventional and toxic air pollution, water pollution, the control of toxic chemicals and hazardous waste, pollution prevention and primary accident prevention, and community right-to-know. The text also explores various alternatives to regulation and concludes with a brief treatise on sustainability. 
The evolving role of science and economics in legislative, regulatory, and judicial decision making is explored. The text analyzes pollution as an economic problem and a failure of markets, discusses the role of technological innovation and the concept of "dynamic" economic equilibrium, and evaluates economic incentives as an alternative or supplement to regulation. The book also provides an introduction to basic legal skills: how to read and understand judicial opinions, regulations, and statutes; how to discover the current state of the law in a specific area; and how to take action toward resolution of environmental problems. Throughout, the role of national and local politics in shaping and implementing environmental policy is acknowledged and evaluated.

Emerging Legal Education

Exploring the broader, non-technical, social and political senses of being situated, this edited collection provides a range of different substantive perspectives on situated learning in legal education.The expert cast of contributors to this book highlight the theory, practice, and impact of situated learning in legal education. Chapters apply situated learning to topics including climate change, First Nations and Indigenous voices, inclusion and belonging, authentic assessment, and generative artificial intelligence. The book questions what differences these intersecting contexts and situations - including the technological, the decolonial and the climatological - make to the practice and thinking of legal educators. In doing so, it considers how legal knowledge and professional identity are shaped through participation, experience, and engagement with communities and real-world problems, and what situated learning can contribute to the future of legal education.This book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of legal education, higher education, digital law, climate change law and decolonial law, as well as legal educators and practitioners interested in curriculum, assessment and educational innovation.

Artificial Intelligence and Blockchain in International Arbitration offers an exhaustive analysis of technology-assisted arbitration across the entire arbitral lifecycle by examining how blockchain and artificial intelligence are used in drafting and concluding arbitral agreements, in the constitution of the tribunal, in the overall procedural management of the case, on evidence and disclosure, on virtual hearings, and even on arbitral award drafting. It delves deeper into the limitations of automation, the non-delegable roles of arbitrators, and the compatibility of digital procedures with core arbitration principles such party autonomy, due process, equality of arms, secrecy, and impartiality. Additionally, it examines how new technologies interact with private international law, with the consent of the parties, the relevant legislation and how these technologies can be incorporated into arbitration without going against public policy, without violation due process rights and, in that way ensuring enforcement under the New York Convention.This book, by examining how blockchain and artificial intelligence are changing arbitral practice, provides a fresh and topical viewpoint on current debates in international arbitration and explores how these technological advancements are reshaping arbitration foundations while posing ethical challenges about the future of arbitration.

Schriften zum Recht der Digitalisierung

Communication platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X, and YouTube have become central arenas of public opinion formation. Their operators moderate millions of items of user-generated content every day on the basis of privately drafted terms of service, removing not only unlawful but also lawful content protected by fundamental rights. Jonas Hiller examines under which conditions and to what extent such moderation is permissible.
 

 The legal framework is provided by the Digital Services Act (DSA), in force since 2024, whose moderation-related due diligence obligations are first systematically analyzed. Building on this, the author develops standards for reviewing both the exercise and the substantive content of privately autonomous moderation decisions, as well as their effects under private law. He also examines the scope for national regulation that remains under the fully harmonizing DSA.
 

 The study demonstrates that the DSA leads to a constitutionalization of the platform user agreement without entirely eliminating private autonomy. In their moderation practices, platform operators become bound by fundamental rights and rule-of-law principles. While they retain broad discretion in designing their terms of service, the application and enforcement of those terms in individual cases are subject to stricter scrutiny. Key criteria for this graduated intensity of review are market power, user dependency, and a platform's function as a public forum.
 

 The study also critically assesses the DSA's fully harmonizing effect, arguing that the regulation of the digital public sphere touches upon the cultural sovereignty and democratic identity of the Member States. Rather than preserving national regulatory discretion, the fully harmonizing nature of EU law results in a Europeanization of freedom of expression in the digital sphere.
