Mikaela Shiffrin: Volume 137

The Future of Private Law

This open access book explores the relationship between consumer law and global value chains (GVCs). Conceptually rigorous, it analyses EU approaches to regulation and to consumer policy oriented to safety, sustainability and market regulation. In so doing, it throws the disconnect between GVCs and consumer law into sharp relief. In response, the author argues that GVCs are a plausible venue for reconsidering consumers as regulatory actors in the global economy. This would enable both consumer protection and EU's decentralised social ordering (based on private regulation) to be accommodated. Innovative and thought-provoking, this is an important contribution to debates on EU consumer law. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

Schriften des Augsburg Center for Global Economic Law and Regulation - Arbeiten zum Internationalen Wirtschaftsrecht und zur Wirtschaftsregulierung

Die Untersuchung analysiert am Beispiel der Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), wie Unternehmenshandeln in einer globalisierten Weltwirtschaft effektiv reguliert werden kann und ob hierbei eine zivilrechtliche Haftung für eine effektive Rechtsdurchsetzung erforderlich ist. Zur Beantwortung dieser Frage bedient sich die Arbeit einer Methodentrias aus intradisziplinären, ökonomischen und rechtsvergleichenden Überlegungen. Sie nimmt hierbei die verschiedenen Teilgebiete des europäischen Wirtschaftsrechts und auch des US-Rechts in den Blick. Ziel der Arbeit ist es, einen Reformvorschlag de lege ferenda zu erarbeiten.

Are we really living in a post-truth age? Have ideas like information, knowledge and truth passed their sell-by date? Is 'information disorder' leading to the terminal decline of democracy? Or will fact-checkers, media regulators and educators come to the rescue? The End of Information cuts through the exaggerated claims that have been made about these issues. Interrogating the key terms in the debate, including trust, democracy, news, and information itself, the book offers a clear-eyed evaluation of potential solutions to the problems involved. It also considers the implications for education in relation to key issues such as literacy and knowledge. It argues that we need to look not just at the symptoms of information disorder but also at their wider political and economic causes; and it suggests that these will not be amenable to a simple 'information fix'. Accessibly written by a leading scholar in the field, this book provides a clear introduction to the information disorders of our times and some fresh thinking about how they can be addressed. Concise, engaging and incisive, it is essential reading for students, scholars and teachers alike.

Managing Aviation Operations

This book offers a comprehensive and management-oriented analysis of sustainability in the aviation industry. It examines aviation's crucial role in global mobility and economic development whilst also critically addressing its environmental, social and regulatory challenges. Readers will benefit by gaining a realistic, analytically sound framework for evaluating sustainability strategies in aviation. The book supports informed decision-making, helps to anticipate regulatory and market developments, and enables readers to better balance economic performance with environmental responsibility and social acceptance in a highly complex and globally interconnected industry.By adopting a holistic ESG perspective, the book integrates environmental impacts such as climate change and noise, social issues including equity, accessibility and labour conditions, and governance aspects like regulation, reporting and stakeholder accountability. Rather than presenting simplified solutions, it highlights trade-offs, uncertainties and long-term path dependencies that shape strategic decision-making in aviation. The structured approach combines conceptual foundations with industry-specific insights, covering regulation, technology, sustainability reporting and strategic management practices.The book is relevant for all managers in the aviation industry, whether they work for airlines, airports, air traffic control organisations, regulatory authorities or political decision-makers. It is particularly important for environmental managers throughout the aviation industry, but also for managers at a senior level, as sustainability is becoming a strategic issue of growing importance. In addition, the book is valuable for students in aviation management programmes as well as for students in related fields such as aeronautical engineering and tourism management.

Applied Real Estate Law and Practice

A textbook that examines how societies reach decisions about the use and allocation of economic resources While economic research emphasizes the importance of governmental institutions for growth and progress, conventional public policy textbooks tend to focus on macroeconomic policies and on tax-and-spend decisions. Markets, State, and People stresses the basics of welfare economics and the interplay between individual and collective choices. It fills a gap by showing how economic theory relates to current policy questions, with a look at incentives, institutions, and efficiency. How should resources in society be allocated for the most economically efficient outcomes, and how does this sit with society's sense of fairness? Diane Coyle illustrates the ways economic ideas are the product of their historical context, and how events in turn shape economic thought. She includes many real-world examples of policies, both good and bad. Readers will learn that there are no panaceas for policy problems, but there is a practical set of theories and empirical findings that can help policymakers navigate dilemmas and trade-offs. The decisions faced by officials or politicians are never easy, but economic insights can clarify the choices to be made and the evidence that informs those choices. Coyle covers issues such as digital markets and competition policy, environmental policy, regulatory assessments, public-private partnerships, nudge policies, universal basic income, and much more. Markets, State, and People offers a new way of approaching public economics. <ul><li>A focus on markets and institutions </li><li>Policy ideas in historical context </li><li>Real-world examples </li><li>How economic theory helps policymakers tackle dilemmas and choices </li></ul>
