Hart Studies in Private Law

This book engages with some of Stephen A Smith's most significant arguments, illustrating that he was a towering figure in the field of private law, with little of the field not impacted by his scholarship. The contributors explore Professor Smith's most controversial thinking on private law. Interrogating questions of contract law, remedies, unjust enrichment, comparative law, and the legal theory underlying these fields, this is an important publication in the field.

Addressing Deepfakes

Oxford Monographs on Criminal Law and Justice

While prevailing accounts of victim participation often frame victims as holders of primarily private interests, victims in common law jurisdictions have increasingly emerged as active public participants in criminal justice systems. With a comparative focus on England and Wales and the United States, Victims as Agents of State Accountability recharacterizes victims as agents of accountability in state decision-making. Through historical, empirical, and case-based analysis, this book advances a normative framework that positions the victim's role as a civic duty, enhancing transparency, legitimacy, and substantive equality in prosecutorial decisions. Accordingly, mechanisms of state accountability are examined, such as private prosecutions, judicial review, and internal review schemes, illustrating how their potential for accountability differs depending on whether victims are recognised as advancing primarily public or private interests. Case studies demonstrate the limits of conceiving victim interests as private and the possibilities of substantive assessments of prosecutorial decisions when interests are understood as public. Ultimately, the book contributes to debates in criminal law and justice by proposing an accountability role that is reflexive and equality-driven. Its comparative and normative insights provide guidance for common law jurisdictions and beyond, highlighting the importance of recognising victims as legitimate participants in shaping the public interest and holding the state accountable within criminal justice.

A Comparative and Normative Analysis

Victims as Agents of State Accountability

This advanced textbook offers an overview and critical treatment of comparative law, incorporating both traditional and modern approaches to the discipline and an up-to-date survey of the key methodological debates. The fundamental concepts of comparative law are examined through the lens of three main questions: what to compare, why compare, and how to compare.The study of the objects of comparative analysis (what to compare) begins with a critique of legal positivism to address a plurality of legal concepts. The investigation of the aims of comparative law (why compare) considers the most widespread classifications of legal orders and the diverse approaches to the study of legal change. Finally, the methods of comparative law (how to compare) are analysed, taking into account their different functions. Adopting a contextualised, interdisciplinary approach to the subject with a focus on a range of different legal systems, the author brings in examples from politics and economics to the analysis, highlighting the importance of comparative law for the understanding of modern societies.Comparative Law: A Critical Introduction will provide a thought-provoking read for advanced-level students and scholars of comparative law.

A Critical Introduction

Comparative Law

This book offers the first ever in-depth analysis of the emerging constitutionalism in South Sudan and the challenges it faces. The book critically analyses the constitution-making processes that occurred in South Sudan between 2005 and 2011, finding, among other things, that there was a failure of constitutional discourse, particularly in relation to the 2011 drafting process of the Transitional Constitution. It goes on to analyse how the constitution is being implemented. It finds that, despite the clear division of powers and functions between the national government and the sub-national governments, what has emerged in South Sudan in the post-constitution-making period is a form of coercive centralism where the national government controls much of the political decision-making process. This has had serious implications for democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law. Finally, bearing in mind the failure in both how the transitional constitution was made and how it is being implemented, the book undertakes a critical analysis of the proposed process for drafting a new constitution for South Sudan. It identifies serious shortcomings and proposes how these could be addressed to enhance the process.

Global Law and Sustainable Development

Given the significant developments in Indian economic and trade policymaking over the last two decades, this book provides an authoritative and timely analysis of the transformation and current state of India's foreign economic policy. The work presents a comprehensive, informed and critical overview of negotiating issues addressed in the recent period leading up to the substantial conclusion of the Trade Facilitation Agreement. The volume also takes into account the geopolitical considerations that influenced the negotiations. Finally, the reform steps being taken by India need to be understood in light of the structural changes in the economy, fuelling domestic compulsion, and the analysis covers this undercurrent in detail. The book will be a valuable guide to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of international trade law, development economics and global politics.

Deciphering the Law, Economics and Politics

India’s Foreign Economic Policy

This book offers a fresh and comprehensive reassessment of interpretivism, one of the two main philosophical accounts of law's nature. Interpretivism is drawn from many different sources and traditions. Accordingly, it is relevant to various fields of inquiry. This volume presents a diverse range of perspectives on its central idea, first expressed by Ronald Dworkin, that law is a moral interpretation of a community's past political decisions. It advances our understanding of interpretivism by restating, revising, and offering new defences and critiques of some of its main tenets. This collection brings together established figures and rising stars from across legal, political, and other areas of philosophy. There are thirteen essays, each accompanied by a response. The result is a unique and insightful overview of the current state of debate in legal philosophy.
