Focusing on legal science and its application, this book comprehensively examines the knowledge system, methodology, and values of judgment formation from theoretical jurisprudence to practical application. Tracing the development of legal science, the book analyzes the core connotations of legal rationality, emphasizing the certainty, scientific nature, and ethical aspects of judgments. Through a profound analysis of legal rationality, evidentiary methods, and judicial procedures in the context of adjudication, the book demonstrates how to achieve "good law and good governance" in judicial practice, providing theoretical guidance and practical direction for legal professionals.

Art that appropriates everyday life interrogates boundaries created by the law. Artists have made legal relationships such as contracts and property the subject of their art, have used them as a medium, and have relied on the law to assert their individual legal and moral rights. However, in this book Pilcher proposes that art puts into question the law's exclusions whilst also inviting us to examine questions of accountability and responsibility for reconfiguring the way legal borders are used to regulate the world. Examining a range of artworks including State Britain by Mark Wallinger, Saydnaya (the missing 19db), After SFX, and Walled Unwalled by Lawrence Abu Hamdan, The Underlying by Ami Clarke, Forensic Architecture's The Killing of Mark Duggan, and Voteauction by UBERMORGEN.COM, Pilcher explores how art has the scope to expose the constraints and contingencies of the regulation of the world by the law.

This book lays out a roadmap for establishing common law recognition of Aboriginal customary law in Australia. Currently, Aboriginal customary law is recognised in limited circumstances through native title, which applies only to rights and interests over traditional lands or waters. This book argues that, if a carefully constructed claim is accepted by an Australian Court, Aboriginal customary law could potentially be recognised across a wide range of legal areas, including criminal law, family law, succession, environmental law, and criminal procedure. Importantly, this would also afford legal recognition to organic Indigenous governance structures. It also proposes a roadmap for establishing a hybrid equitable-constitutional fiduciary obligation that the Crown would owe Indigenous Australians. This could provide valuable protections to Indigenous rights and societies from impositions made by legislatures and executives purporting to exercise powers under the 
 Australian Constitution. Distinctive in its approach, this volume is among the first post-2020 works to explore a common law pathway for recognising and furthering the rights of Indigenous societies, governance systems, and legal frameworks, at a time when most scholarship has focused on express constitutional recognition or recognition via treaties and agreements (notably in Victoria).
 The book builds on the landmark High Court decision in 
 Love v Commonwealth 
 (2020), where the Court recognised that Aboriginal Australians, owing to their enduring connection to country, could not be considered ‘aliens’ under the 
 Constitution
 . While 
 Love 
 initially addressed alienage and constitutional protections, this work argues that its reasoning opens the door to broader common law recognition of Indigenous Australians’ rights, laws, and governance structures, beyond the scope of native title.
 Through careful legal analysis and a proposed claims framework, this book contributes to an emergent body of scholarship exploring the legal consequences of recognizing Aboriginal Australians’ enduring connection to country, offering a path toward meaningful expansion of Indigenous legal recognition in Australia, and bringing Australian law closer to the more progressive Indigenous rights doctrines of common law North America.

Law, Love and Australia’s Unfinished Retreat from Terra Nullius

This book investigates the structural limits of the principle of party initiative and the rule of congruence within the contemporary civil procedural system, with a primary focus on Brazilian law and a comparative outlook that resonates with other legal traditions. It critically examines how the liberal-individualist foundations of civil procedure—rooted in 18th- and 19th-century private law—continue to shape the concepts of jurisdiction, action, defense, and process, often in ways that are misaligned with the collective and complex nature of modern legal disputes.Through the lens of financial compensation for mineral exploitation, the work explores the dual role of the Public Power as both rights-holder and representative of diffuse interests, revealing the inadequacy of traditional procedural categories in addressing collective claims. This tension underscores the need to rethink the procedural framework, especially when the judiciary is called upon to act beyond the strict confines of party-submitted claims.The book proposes a shift toward a more systemic and public-oriented understanding of judicial activity, grounded in the principle of proportionality—understood here in its pan-procedural dimension. Rather than evaluating procedural guarantees solely within the boundaries of individual cases, it advocates for a broader analysis that considers the efficiency and legitimacy of the judiciary as a public service. Drawing on constitutional principles and comparative jurisprudence, it argues that judicial decisions must be guided by a balance between means and ends, ensuring that interventions are not only legally sound but also socially and economically justified.This approach is further developed through a critical analysis of the classification of legal actions and the effects of judicial decisions. The book revisits traditional distinctions—declaratory, constitutive, condemnatory, mandamental, and executive—highlighting their historical evolution and practical limitations. It challenges the rigidity of these categories, especially in contexts such as third-party embargoes and fraud against creditors, where procedural formalism can hinder effective legal protection. The discussion extends to the controversial admissibility of declaratory actions on facts, advocating for a more pragmatic and flexible interpretation that aligns with the realities of legal uncertainty and the need for judicial affirmation of rights and obligations.This work offers a renewed theoretical and practical framework for understanding the boundaries of judicial action. By integrating the principles of proportionality and adequate representation into the heart of procedural reasoning, it seeks to reconcile the individualistic origins of civil procedure with the demands of a complex, pluralistic, and constitutionally committed legal order.

Principle of Party Initiative

In recent decades, doctrinal, theoretical, and sociological legal research on women's rights - as well as, more broadly, on law and gender from an intersectional perspective - has increasingly come into focus. The requirements of protection, the scope for action, and the equality of women, as well as the legal conceptualization of womanhood, are the subject of intense debate, with differing emphases across legal systems. Time and again, these fundamental rights to freedom and equality have been denied, and they are currently being questioned worldwide, particularly by illiberal and authoritarian regimes. Against this backdrop, the volume brings together current research topics on women's fundamental rights: their theoretical reconstruction, their doctrinal implementation, their enforcement in different legal contexts, and their intersectional dimensions. The contributions are organized into four thematic sections and stem from the legal conference "Female Fundamental Freedoms," held in November 2025 as a symposium of the Research Center for Fundamental Rights at the University of Bayreuth. The aim is not to provide a comprehensive account of this complex discourse, but rather to offer impulses for reflection on key contemporary questions of Female Fundamental Freedoms and to encourage further inquiry. 
 The volume first explores the historical and theoretical foundations of fundamental rights from a feminist and intersectional perspective. It then addresses the fundamental question of womanhood as a legal category and as a point of reference for fundamental rights, drawing on selected examples from current debates. Third, it examines fundamental issues of equality in the workplace, with particular attention to experiences of intersectional discrimination. Finally, it highlights key aspects of the far-reaching legal field of reproductive rights and situates them within an international context.

Why should banks be bailed out?Because when banks fail, the consequences can extend far beyond their shareholders and creditors, disrupting lending, confidence, and the wider economy.Prudential regulation seeks to reduce both the likelihood and the economic cost of such failures by requiring banks to maintain adequate capital and liquidity, manage their risks prudently, and prepare for recovery or orderly resolution. But how much capital and liquidity is enough to avoid a bailout?This handbook provides a comprehensive and practical guide to this question. With a particular focus on the European Union's implementation of the final Basel III reforms-often referred to as Basel IV-the book explains the regulatory framework established through CRR3 and CRD VI. It examines not only what the rules require, but also the economic rationale and policy objectives underlying them.Combining clear explanations with worked examples and step-by-step calculations, the book covers the foundations of banking and risk; own funds and eligible liabilities; credit, market, counterparty credit, CVA, and operational risk; standardised and internal-model approaches; the leverage ratio; capital buffers; liquidity requirements; MREL and TLAC; Pillar 3 disclosures; and the practical calculation and reporting of regulatory requirements. It also considers international differences and emerging issues, including cryptoassets and climate-related risks.Written for banking and consulting professionals, this book is a concise and user-friendly resource on the latest EU prudential framework. It is also suitable for students who are interested in these topics. It provides a reliable, practical reference on prudential requirements.

The Handbook of the Basel Framework

This book systematically examines the theoretical construction and practical applications of Legalist thought in state governance of ancient China. Centered on the three core theoretical pillars of "Law (Fa), Statecraft/Tactics (Shu), and Authority/Power (Shi)," it conducts an in-depth analysis of the unique insights of Legalist doctrine on legal systems, governance methods, and the operation of power through interpretations of classical works such as The Book of Lord Shang and Han Feizi. In exploring governance practices, this book focuses on the political reforms implemented by various states during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. It elaborates on the establishment of a centralized state structure and evaluates the effectiveness of specific governance mechanisms, including the prefecture-county system, household registration, and collective responsibility system. These institutional innovations not only laid the groundwork for the Qin dynasty's unification of the six states but also provided the foundational framework for China's state governance model over the following two millennia.

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>

In the event of non-fulfilment of contractual performance obligations, under which conditions and at what level can a creditor demand compensation from a debtor? And can alleviating the burden of proof be counted on by the creditor in such cases? David Philipp Paulus deals with these perennial bones of contention to develop a system that accommodates both the delimitations and prerequisites of the various categories of compensation in breach of contract law.
