Construction Law

Oñati International Series in Law and Society

This edited collection explores the question of how those with limited capacity are enabled to take their part as members of society within the context of both a legal framework and the expectations of their family and community. The book is divided into three parts, firstly looking at the current legal position on incapacity in a number of jurisdictions. It discusses the recent European project FLEUR, and the associated debates developing around whether legislation dealing with incapacity should aim to support or control the vulnerable person. Secondly, the book looks at the experience of families with vulnerable members. Chapters examine developments in Australia, Spain, Bulgaria and Argentina, while part three looks at France, Turkey, Canada, the Netherlands, Poland and Ukraine. It asks questions such as: What are the contemporary demands for full financial protection by the state in the Netherlands? What can happen in an emergency? How did the Polish system provide for the needs of refugees in wartime, in the case of the recent flight from Ukraine into Poland? An important dimension is added to the debate, asking how we can provide support and control within a social network or group whose members have different aims and needs in a family or a community.

Incapacity and Access to Family Justice

Überfüllte Warteräume, falsche Diagnosen, Pfleger im Burn-Out und überforderte Ärzte: Der Zustand der österreichischen Spitäler ist kritisch, ein Skandal folgt dem nächsten. Die Patientenanwältin Dr. Karin Prutsch-Lang vertritt seit Jahren die Opfer eines zusammenbrechenden Gesundheitssystems. Sie enthüllt anhand erschütternder Beispiele, wie Politik und Ärzte die Patienten aus den Augen verlieren und ihre Gesundheit riskieren, und zeigt, was zu tun ist, damit Krankenhäuser wieder zu Orten der Heilung werden.

Die Wahrheit über Österreichs Spitäler

Krankenhaus Kollaps

This book investigates measures to increase diversity in the legal profession of England and Wales and the impact of equality law on what has been done, focussing on how law enables organisations lawfully to take positive or affirmative action. The book combines a qualitative interview study of lawyers, legal regulators, recruitment consultants and other civil society actors, with analysis of developments in the legal profession, in equality law and in understanding of the role of law in society. The evidence paints a puzzling picture of the law on positive action being both very little known and seen as limiting what employers do to advance equality, much as significant positive action has been taken anyway, at least in this section of the legal profession. The glimpse into legal practice revealed complex attitudes, persistent barriers to fundamental change, and, in hindsight, that the larger forces driving inequality mean that liberalizing positive action laws was never likely to make much difference. This case study therefore cautions against overestimating equality law's power to deliver change while putting forward strategies for enhancing its effectiveness. At the broadest level, the book argues for frank acknowledgment of law's limitations, a stronger focus on understanding how legal interventions function in practice before deploying them, and for the full implications of law's limits to be traced through in politics and society. The urgent need is for renewed effort to discover and build other mechanisms for addressing inequality and the many other major challenges we currently face.

Positive Action and the Limits of Law

Diversity in the Legal Profession

Company law, as a specialised branch of business law, is uniquely shaped by contemporary challenges that often redefine traditional legal concepts. Historically, the study of company law has been approached through the lens of individual legal systems rather than a broader, comparative perspective. Addressing this gap, this advanced textbook offers a comprehensive comparative analysis of common law and civil law traditions.The book focuses on the interplay between the UK legal system and the European Union's legal framework through the analysis of some EU states' legal systems. It examines company law in common law jurisdictions, particularly England and Wales, alongside Scotland, while integrating the latest legislative developments within some states of the EU, for instance, Italy and Germany. Through this comparative lens, the textbook explores pressing contemporary issues, such as the pursuit of sustainability and the green agenda, and technological evolution, in particular, AI, analysing their impact on the foundational principles of company law.Marking the 20th anniversary of the passing of the Companies Act 2006, Comparative Company Law serves as a bridge between common law and civil law, combining tradition with innovation. It provides a nuanced exploration of how modern challenges, ranging from sustainability to human rights, reshape the structure of company law, making it an essential resource for advanced students and scholars.

An Untold Story of Invisible Work

Gender, Care and Financial Remedies on Divorce

This book investigates the privately negotiated financial arrangements made by divorcing couples where no legal advice or financial orders were sought. It calls for a re-evaluation of the assumptions of autonomy and agency held by policy makers and adds to the debates around the role and purpose of family law in England and Wales. Drawing on interviews with divorced military wives, the book provides a case study of the operation of current family law principles and values in a context where highly gendered familial roles are a key feature. It provides fresh insight into the challenges presented by neoliberal understandings of autonomy and agency, which presume that individuals have freely chosen to organise their lives in a way that creates dependency and financial precarity. It adopts a socio-legal framework to examine how the interpersonal dynamics established during marriage influence financial decision-making. The book argues that there are important lessons to be learned from military wives, shedding light on the highly gendered patterns of behaviour within military families which are replicated in the wider population. It advocates the importance of recognising the many factors that limit autonomy and agency during marriage and that are not mitigated against in the family justice system, which instead permits - and encourages - unfair and unequal financial arrangements to be made. This book is essential reading for lawyers, students of family law, and policy makers.
