Key Ideas in Law

This book explores several key ideas relating to the 'principle of legality'. In the United Kingdom, the 'principle of legality' is an interpretive tool applied by courts to legislation that is deemed to be unclear. The term is used as shorthand for both the idea that Parliament may only override fundamental legal or constitutional norms using clear legislation. It also encapsulates the idea that courts can 'read down' or narrow the effect of general or ambiguous legislation to protect fundamental common law norms. These deceptively simple notions have a rich and complex historical pedigree. Since the end of the twentieth century, a 'breach of the principle of legality' has become a discrete ground of judicial review rooted in the common law. But its status, definition, and reach all remain deeply contested. In recent years, recourse to 'the principle of legality' in public law claims has become increasingly controversial. As the corpus of case law has grown, the application of the 'principle of legality' has been identified by judges, academics, and politicians as both a source of legal uncertainty in its own right, and a vehicle for potential judicial overreach. By building on a rigorous analysis of relevant case law, this book considers the intellectual foundations of 'the principle of legality'. As the analysis unfolds, we will see that there is no singular 'principle of legality' which we can accurately pinpoint. Instead, it makes sense to talk about multiple principles of legality, doing distinct, but related, work. This becomes apparent when we explore the history of the principles of legality in the context of not just public law, but the wider legal system. Moving beyond the historical context, the book explores where and how the principles of legality apply in the contemporary legal system. Subsequent chapters explore the difficulties and uncertainties of determining whether the principles of legality are engaged. Thereafter, attention turns to what norms legality does and does not protect and how courts decide upon this. The final chapter sets the principles of legality in their broader constitutional context. Overall, it will demonstrate that concerns about relating to judicial overreach are overstated. In fact, the reverse is true: the application of the principles of legality do introduce a dimension of legal uncertainty, but ultimately fall short of their constitutional potential.

Key Ideas in Law: The Principle of Legality

Horror Studies

Blending folklore studies, media theory, horror criticism and cultural geography, this collection charts an unprecedented map of urbanlegend storytelling, from haunted cemeteries to pixelated backrooms. Across three themed sections, international scholars trace how tales of hookhanded killers and countless other spectres migrate through oral tradition, cinema, television, board games and video games, to continually reshape the fears and identities of the communities that share them. By foregrounding space the cemetery, the highway, the small town, the livestreamed haunted house as a dynamic agent rather than passive backdrop, the book reveals how legends build cultural memory, police social boundaries and critique neoliberal landscapes. Interdisciplinary, globally-scoped and mediaagnostic, this volume moves beyond folkloric catalogues and genre surveys to show precisely where horror lives today and why those locations matter.

From the Sunday Times bestselling and Booker-longlisted author of Snap, and winner of the CWA Crime Novel of the Year, comes 'An exciting contemporary whodunnit' (Times Literary Supplement) 'Extraordinary' ANN CLEEVES 'Pure joy' VAL MCDERMID 'Solid gold' LEE CHILD 'Astonishing' New York Times***** 'A funny, moving and beautifully written tale' Guardian On a summer's evening in 1926, six-year-old Celie Shepherd is hungry and desperate and not where a six-year-old should be. Instead she is dangling from a cliff, far above the sea, reaching out to pocket an impossibly beautiful thing. This bold theft will change the course of Celie's life, and the lives of others. One hundred years later, a house is ransacked. The only thing missing: a dusty case containing that same impossible thing. What could conceivably be so important that it is stolen again and again (and perhaps yet again . . .)? So begins this extraordinary mystery from award-winning Belinda Bauer. A taut, wonderfully imagined novel brimming with skulduggery at every turn, The Impossible Thing is a blazing testament to Belinda Bauer's status as one of our greatest living crime writers. Praise for The Impossible Thing 'Enthralling, hilarious, mysterious... I thoroughly enjoyed this book' 5-STAR reader review 'Comic, thrilling and ultimately moving' The Scottish Mail on Sunday 'This could be her best ever' LEE CHILD, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series 'A captivating novel from one of the UK's most talented storytellers. I loved every page of this unique mystery.' CLARE MACKINTOSH, bestselling author of I Let You GO 'One of the most enjoyable novels I've read in ages' PAULA HAWKINS, bestselling author of The Girl on the Train

Sustainable Development Goals Series

This open access book examines migrant settlement in regional Australia, offering policy recommendations and conceptual frameworks for sustainable integration. With a focus on key areas such as socio-political contexts, employment, education, health, and family challenges, this book provides a holistic approach to understanding and addressing the complexities of migrant settlement.
Australia's rich cultural landscape is shaped by its status as a migration nation, with over half of its population either born overseas or having at least one migrant parent. While migration is a key element of Australia's growth, regional areas face unique challenges in attracting and retaining migrants. Despite government initiatives, skill shortages persist in regional industries, prompting a need for comprehensive policy addressing migrant needs and regional development.
This book fills a critical gap in the literature, offering valuable insights for academics, policymakers, and service providers. It not only highlights the challenges faced by migrants in regional Australia but also underscores the importance of community capacity-building and support services in facilitating successful settlement.

The British General Election of 2024

Beste deutsche Krimiliteratur: Relevant, realistisch. tiefgründigAls Johannes Waldmann am Vorabend seiner Rückkehr in den Dienst der Bonner Mordkommission an einen Tatort gerufen wird, ahnt er nicht, in welche Abgründe dieser Fall ihn führen wird. Während er die Leiche des getöteten Lokalpolitikers besieht, jagt eine Frau in einem gestohlenen Polizeiwagen einem Audi nach. In ihm vermutet sie die junge Ukrainerin Zlata, die gerade noch mit dem Politiker auf einem Zimmer war. Auch die Journalistin Pia Luninger ist an dem Fall dran. Spurlos wird die große Reportage heißen, die sie über Menschenhandel und Zwangsprostitution schreiben will und die ihr endlich den ersehnten Karrieresprung ermöglichen soll. Mit jedem Schritt, den Waldmann tiefer in den Sumpf des Verbrechens hineinwatet, löst sich ein Faden, der die große Wunde seines Lebens nur oberflächlich zusammenhielt: der Verlust seiner Frau. Damals, auf einem Bazar, als sie von einem auf den anderen Moment einfach so - verschwand ...&nbsp;

'This groundbreaking volume critically engages with debates on art and displacement, while also advancing vital reflections on ethical practices in museums working with artists of refugee backgrounds - offering rich insights for scholars and students in the intersecting fields of cultural history, art history, and curatorial studies.' --Professor Anne Ring Petersen, University of Copenhagen With the rise of humanitarianism and international refugee laws in the 20th century, visual representations of refugees and their forced displacement permeated the cultural sphere. Understanding displacement aesthetics offers a groundbreaking analysis of the role of visual culture, art and art museums in shaping ideas about people forced to flee. The book identifies the refugee as a cultural figure, analysing the longer history of visual motifs and tropes and their ongoing presence in the contemporary world. Highlighting displaced artists in contemporary contexts, the book explores the barriers they face and their aesthetic outcomes. Language, identity and labour are identified as critical factors informing how art is made, curated, collected and understood by the public. Advancing the new concept of 'displacement aesthetics' - the negotiation of representation, lived experience and institutions - the interdisciplinary research underpinning this book provides a major intervention into the fields of cultural history, art history, and museum studies. Combining archival research, analysis of art, and curatorial research with artists and museums, Understanding displacement aesthetics presents new insights into the role of art and culture in mediating this pressing social and political issue in the 20th and 21st centuries.
