Donovan J: Little Book of Restorative
Parenting

Little Book of Restorative Parenting

Healing, Empathy, and Repair for a More Connected Family

This book offers the first detailed study of women's legal status in early modern Liège, an otherwise largely overlooked case in European legal history. It follows women across the course of their lives, from birth to widowhood, to show how their legal position and control over property shifted over time, depending on their social status and place within the family. Drawing on a substantial body of wills and marriage contracts from notarial practice, it moves beyond traditional sources to show how the law actually worked in everyday practice, and who took part in its creation. By bringing all these elements together, this book offers a nuanced picture of how law and gender interacted in early modern Europe.

Women's Legal Status Between Customary Law, Notarial Practice and Ius Commune (16th-17th Century)

Women and the Law in Early Modern Liège

Price review disputes have become an increasingly prominent feature in gas and LNG markets over the past two decades. While the first wave of disputes was driven by the ‘triple whammy’ of recession, US shale gas and the liberalisation of the gas markets in Europe, further waves have followed with the development of increasingly liquid trading hubs across Europe, ongoing volatility in commodity prices and the continuing influx of liquefied natural gas (LNG) into Europe. And the centre of gravity for price review disputes is increasingly found in Asian markets rather than European ones. This practical second edition will cover the various aspects of international gas and LNG pricing disputes. It contains contributions from leading international arbitration practitioners and arbitrators in the field and industry experts. It covers the various stages of a gas pricing dispute, from drafting the clause to triggering a review, all the way through the various stages of the arbitral process. It also builds on the previous editions with new chapters which reflect how price review practice has evolved. Thus, the new edition has more emphasis on price reviews in Asian markets and also includes new chapters on key issues such as the role of competition law in price reviews and the impact of previous arbitral awards on future price reviews under the same contract. Despite the large number of high-value disputes in this area, this is one of the very few publications to draw together the various strands of gas pricing disputes into one book. It is therefore an invaluable guide for practitioners, in-house counsel and anyone else with an interest in this area.

Tort law refers to the system of laws governing civil wrongdoing. The bedrock for vital government functions, it is most visible during legal disputes related to common activities, like driving a car and receiving medical care. It's quotidian nature makes tort a useful entry point for assessing Americans' perceptions of today's "post-truth" political landscape. Sensationalized accounts of these encounters with the law reflect broader opinions about the state and each other, across the political spectrum. Conservatives, for example, exaggerate the prevalence of frivolous claims, while liberals describe the role of tort as holding reckless corporations accountable. &nbsp;&nbsp;In this book, the authors map these debates onto the mythology of rugged American individualism, which privileges both stoic self-reliance and standing up to powerful interests. They explore attitudes towards claimants and claims in three policy areas: medical malpractice, auto collisions, and premises liability. <the rugged="" litigant="" deftly="" weaves="" a="" story="" of="" complex="" and="" layered="" preferences="" that="" defy="" conventional="" accounts="" culture="" wars,="" ultimately,="" display="" shocking="" degree="" consensus:="" people="" believe="" litigation="" should="" be="" an="" option="" -="" when="" used="" as="" last="" resort.="" these="" findings="" offer="" novel="" roadmap="" for="" countering="" the="" seemingly="" intractable="" polarization="" in="" today&#39;s="" politics.="" <="" p=""></the>

The Post-Truth Politics of Tort and How to Fight Back

The Rugged Litigant

Americans take it for granted that the states of the union make up an economic common market. But that is the case only because early in the nation's history the Supreme Court ruled that the Commerce Clause of the Constitution establishes a principle--sometimes called the "dormant Commerce Clause" principle--that blocks individual states from cutting off the free flow of cross-border trade. From the 1820s onward the Court has issued hundreds of rulings applying this doctrine to prevent the states from imposing tariff-like taxes, local processing requirements, and other restrictions on the free movement of goods and services across state lines. The result for the nation has been, as Justice Robert Jackson once observed, a "material success that . . . has been the most impressive in the history of commerce." After joining the Court in 1986 Justice Antonin Scalia challenged the dormant Commerce Clause principle as an illegitimate judicial innovation at odds with a proper "originalist" interpretation of the Constitution. This critique, moreover, quickly picked up steam as other prominent jurists and commentators--most notably, Justice Clarence Thomas--gave it their enthusiastic support. Is the originalist challenge to the dormant Commerce Clause rule well-founded? In The Common-Market Constitution, Coenen argues that the answer is no. Like Justice Scalia, Coenen focuses on discovering the original public meaning of the Commerce Clause. According to Coenen, however, the text and history of that clause compel a conclusion that is the direct opposite of the one that Justice Scalia reached. As Coenen demonstrates, a proper originalist assessment of the dormant Commerce Clause principle requires consideration of a sweeping body of text- and history-based evidence that ranges far beyond what critics of that principal rule have focused on in the past. A full and fair appraisal of that evidence, Coenen argues, leaves no doubt that the constitutional rule that the Court has long applied to safeguard the American common market does reflect the original public meaning of the Commerce Clause.

The Office of Hawaiian Affairs is a semi-autonomous government agency established at the height of the Hawaiian cultural and political renaissance to expend public funds for the benefit of Native Hawaiians. In The Sword of History Troy Andrade offers a legal and political history of this agency in order to excavate its role in the ongoing struggle for Native Hawaiian self-determination. Andrade demonstrates how the framing of past events in connection with present-day lawmaking perpetuates narratives of either justice or injustice, which in turn support or undermine the legal bases for reparative action. He sheds light on how history becomes a metaphorical sword that is wielded by those with power to control reconciliation efforts. &nbsp;&nbsp;Using legal records, archival materials, and personal interviews, this manuscript expands on legal-historical understandings of the use of collective memory in different legal institutions, such as through state constitution building, legislation, and court opinions. Andrade deftly weaves a compelling narrative out of these complex and often fraught legal battles, which often had implications far beyond the Hawaiian state. Ultimately this book offers a novel perspective on the complicated legal politics surrounding indigeneity in the U.S. writ large.

Science fiction has long been fascinated with the potential for sentient, human-like artificial persons. Even before reality meets fantasy, individuals, governments and businesses already entrust AI to make automated decisions with potential for real-life impact. What are the implications for AI legal personhood? This work examines how different legal entities differ in rights and duties and considers historical examples that show how legal personhood status can change over time under economic, social and pragmatic pressures. By abandoning the traditional binary, characteristics-based concept of the legal person for a historical lens, we are left with a more nuanced concept of the legal person against which sentience matters far less than what we might otherwise assume.

Persona Ex Machina: Artificial Intelligence on a Spectrum of Legal Personhood

For much of the past century, with the U.S. considered the world leader in innovation, its economic growth based on continued creative contributions from its citizens was a given. But this privileged position is under threat. In recent years, the U.S. has lagged behind other countries on several innovation measures, and including an ability to compete against international cities for venture-capital backed startups and creative talent. The arrival of AI only adds urgency to the questions of whether the U.S. will continue to be an innovation leader, and whether that leadership will advance human flourishing. &nbsp;&nbsp;The Creativity Tax draws on neuroscience, psychology, economics, law, and public policy to make the case that reducing poverty and inequality through a federal guaranteed income is the missing key to unlocking our collective creative potential and expanding our innovative capacity. It explains how policy inaction in addressing poverty and inequality is taxing our innovative capacities in ways that threaten our continued ability to produce high quality, socially beneficial innovation. The book also reveals how these questions of innovation leadership are deeply entwined with questions of who gets to innovate in this country and what kinds of innovation is produced—innovation for innovation's sake that benefits a few, or truly useful innovation that advances human flourishing. &nbsp;&nbsp;Synthesizing a broad range of scholarship, Stephanie Plamondon makes a novel argument for addressing poverty and inequality, not only as a matter of social welfare policy, but also for our nation's continued progress as an innovation leader.

If you want to know more about living trusts, this book is here to help. Make Your Living Trust gives you straightforward and easy-to-understand information about how living trusts: <ul> <li>compare to wills</li> <li>pass property to beneficiaries without probate</li> <li>provide for minor children, and</li> <li>help protect against unexpected incapacity.</li> </ul> You might have heard about living trusts and have a general sense that you should make one. But if you're like most people, you're not exactly sure why or how to do it. If this sounds like you, Make Your Living Trust provides the information and support you need to make informed estate planning decisions. For many people, living trusts are a useful tool to keep their property out of probate. This makes a lot of sense because probate often makes the process of wrapping up an estate more complicated and expensive than it needs to be. And there are other reasons to make a living trust -- a living trust allows you to authorize someone to take care of your property in case of incapacity, and (unlike wills) living trusts keep your personal business private. That said, not everyone needs a living trust. Many people need only a will and a durable power of attorney. Others might use those in conjunction with pay-on-death accounts or transfer-on-death deeds. Compared to other estate planning tools, living trusts can be more expensive to create and more complicated to live with. So, you don't want to go through the trouble and expense of making one if you don't need to. Make Your Living Trust helps you think through these and many other trust-related issues. For example, it helps you weigh the pros and cons of making a living trust yourself versus having an attorney draw one up. It also covers questions that might come up as you make a living trust (with or without a lawyer), like: <ul> <li>What types of property work well in a living trust?</li> <li>Can you and your spouse make a living trust together?</li> <li>What is the role of a successor trustee?</li> <li>Who decides when minor children receive their inheritance?</li> <li>How do you transfer property into your living trust?</li> <li>What makes a living trust legal?</li> <li>Where should you store your living trust?</li> <li>Do you have to register your trust or share it with your family?</li> <li>What other estate planning documents might you need?</li> </ul> Make Your Living Trust can help with all of this and more. It will be your steady companion as you learn about wills and trusts and start to craft your estate plan.
