New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives

The primary objective of this book is to address a formal representation of household economy in welfare economics in spatial terms. Although it has been argued since the nineteenth century that in exploring a reasonable indicator to measure the real welfare level of households, several difficulties remain to be faced in economic theory. The most relevant method in this specific topic is social welfare function. While various types of indicators were historically developed and improved as a replacement of existing economic growth indicators such as GDP and GRP using social welfare function, there still is a problem with evaluating the individual's utility as an aggregate term. As an alternative method of measuring the real welfare level of households, location theory may be a possibility for solving some potentially problematic issues. To be precise, location theory requires the inclusion of notions of transportation costs, spatially constrained internal and external economies, and other distance-related variables. From the standpoint of equality, this specific approach enables an analysis to investigate spatial differentiation. In other words, spatial differentiation of households can be interpreted as spatial consumer exclusion. Hence, the real welfare level of households can be measured by means of the accessibility of goods and services, of which there are several types, such as essential and luxury ones. As a result, spatial distribution of goods and services depending on their types can be considered a component of social welfare function. The topics addressed in the book include social welfare function in spatial terms, location theory related to firms and households, attractiveness of regions, economic and social infrastructure elements, and sustainable growth and development of regions.

Human Rights Law in Perspective

This book offers an analysis of how the European Court of Human Rights engages with identity and emotion, revealing both the promise and the limitations of human rights law in addressing the complexities of human experience. The book explores how human rights law, often framed as universal and abstract, responds to deeply personal questions of identity, belonging, and emotional impact. Based on a systematic study of over 3,300 judgments, the book shows how the European Court of Human Rights has increasingly made identity central to its reasoning - particularly in cases involving sexuality, ethnicity, and family life. In these areas, the Court acknowledges how state actions shape emotions such as fear, humiliation, and dignity. Yet, in other domains - migration, religion, professional life - the Court avoids emotional engagement, leading to troubling inconsistencies. The book argues that when emotions are excluded from legal reasoning, individuals are reduced to formal entities, stripped of depth and interiority. Combining doctrinal analysis with insights from social theory and psychology, the book presents a new framework for understanding how emotions and identity interact with law. It traces the evolution of identity references across categories and highlights the Court's uneven treatment of emotional harm. This timely and original contribution speaks to legal scholars, practitioners, and theorists interested in human rights, identity politics, and the emotional dimensions of law. It calls for a more responsive and empathetic human rights jurisprudence - one that reflects the lived realities of those it seeks to protect.

Emerging Legal Education

Exploring the broader, non-technical, social and political senses of being situated, this edited collection provides a range of different substantive perspectives on situated learning in legal education.The expert cast of contributors to this book highlight the theory, practice, and impact of situated learning in legal education. Chapters apply situated learning to topics including climate change, First Nations and Indigenous voices, inclusion and belonging, authentic assessment, and generative artificial intelligence. The book questions what differences these intersecting contexts and situations - including the technological, the decolonial and the climatological - make to the practice and thinking of legal educators. In doing so, it considers how legal knowledge and professional identity are shaped through participation, experience, and engagement with communities and real-world problems, and what situated learning can contribute to the future of legal education.This book will be of interest to researchers in the fields of legal education, higher education, digital law, climate change law and decolonial law, as well as legal educators and practitioners interested in curriculum, assessment and educational innovation.

Banking, Money and International Finance

The emergence of financial technologies has unlocked a myriad of possibilities for reshaping governance systems, from the grassroots level of micro-governance to the broader scope of national and transnational governance. This book thoroughly examines the significant impact of cutting-edge financial technology on enhancing worldwide access to financial services. In an era marked by persistent governance challenges, it highlights the transformative potential of AI-driven solutions in fostering more equitable economic participation. Overcoming traditional banking barriers to serve underserved and unbanked communities, the book investigates the fourth wave of fintech innovation depicted by AI, blockchain technologies and decentralized systems. The book begins by presenting the fundamentals of digital innovation, particularly emphasising the transformative role of AI-powered financial tools in improving banking experiences for various global communities. It emphasizes the role of digital payment platforms in bridging the gap between urban and rural populations, as well as the way blockchain technology and smart contracts are setting new benchmarks for transaction security and transparency. Its primary focus is on the strategies for overcoming financial exclusion. Cybersecurity compliance, ethical AI, data governance, and regulatory coordination are considered essential for creating trustworthy digital financial systems. Additionally, it thoroughly examines the alternative credit scoring methods that use non-traditional data to transform lending and presents the opportunities and challenges that will shape the future of finance, with a particular emphasis on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), sustainable blockchain solutions, and artificial intelligence collaborations. For scholars, researchers and policymakers working to create a more accessible and sustainable financial future, the book offers a thorough overview of the state of inclusive fintech today and a predictive outlook on how technology can promote global economic equity.

A history of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, and how the ambiguity built into that technology helps companies and exploits workersSeeing Like a Supply Chain is a compelling investigation into the hidden networks that drive our global economy. Miriam Posner presents a blow-by-blow account of the technology of supply-chain management from punch cards to neural nets, revealing how the system's built-in ambiguity shields companies from accountability while exploiting workers.Drawing on more than a decade of research, Posner shows how computation converged with the growth of global trade to allow for a lightning-quick, astoundingly efficient supply chain that lets corporations source products without any notion of where their goods are actually being produced. At a time when multinational firms fear the reputational damage of human rights violations in the making of their products, the supply chain's shroud of vagueness is a feature, not a bug. Posner shows how this is technically accomplished-and how the strategic disavowal of information extends through every step of that chain.

This book integrates diversified disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies of area studies, regional economic development, and regional science. With its huge population, China has accomplished rapid economic growth since the 1990s, although the significant income gap among regions and individuals has become a serious problem for its society. China's accession to the WTO in 2001 has had various influences on the entire food system, from agriculture to consumers, through the food manufacturing and distribution industries. The changes in the Chinese food system are considered to have also affected the agriculture and food industries in Asian countries where economic interdependence has been promoted in past decades. The author argues these issues based on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary methods and approaches and has successfully derived empirical and theoretical results that are rich in policy implications. The topics addressed include food security and sustainability of agriculture especially in the suburbs of big cities; poverty reduction in rural agricultural areas amidst prosperity in urban and coastal areas; regional networks and international trade of the food industry in East Asia; creation of innovative knowledge and human capital for clustering of the agro-food sector; regional development strategy; and international cooperation. The book is interesting for researchers in the field, especially for those who are concerned with the food system that has been changed dynamically in the past two decades, and it is informative, as well, for practitioners who are engaged in related business.

The Second Republic is a comprehensive institutional blueprint for India's transition into a developed economy (Viksit Bharat) by 2047. In this book, Ghani, a former World Bank economist and a prominent voice in Indian developmental economics, moves beyond traditional policy debates to focus on the State capacity engine, with his most compelling diagnostic being the two-engine trap. Since the 1991 reforms, India has developed a high-performance private sector engine; however, this is tethered to an obsolete state engine, characterized by nineteenth-century colonial structures and twentieth-century socialist bureaucracy. To address this, India not only needs new laws but a 'Second Republic', a fundamental re-architecting of the state's core institutions to match the dynamism of its people. 

The book introduces the 4F architecture--functions, finances, functionaries, and foundations--as the integrated mechanism for national renewal, analysing why previous reforms have often stalled. With themes including unlocking the gender dividend (Shakti Superpower), building a modern justice platform, and navigating the geoeconomic frontier of artificial intelligence and climate change, it focuses on the 'plumbing' of the nation: the courts, civil services, and digital systems. A manifesto for 2047, The Second Republic is a timely intervention, shifting the goalposts from 'growth at any cost' to 'growth through institutional excellence', making it an essential read for those trying to understand why India's path to $30 trillion requires more than just capital.

Interpreting The Amistad Trials traces the signal importance of interpreters and translators in the famous 19th-century Amistad case and discusses how race, ethnicity, slavery, and colonialism shaped this story. From the recruitment process to the various oral to sign languages that mediated linguistically in the Africans' life inside and outside the courtroom, and from evidentiary documents to fraudulent translations to credible testimonies, Jeanette Zaragoza-De León demonstrates the crucial importance of translation and interpretation in the Amistad plot and outcome. De León examines handwritten letters, pamphlets, newspapers, and judicial files, and adopts a critical race theory and postcolonial lens to analyze these materials. Although these critical interpretations and translations travelled transatlantically via Europe, Africa, the Caribbean, and the United States, De León highlights the common thread which also geographically unites Venezuela, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican Republic as part of the Amistad story. One of the most comprehensive studies of recorded events in the history of interpretation and translation in the Americas, Interpreting The Amistad Trials is a valuable resource for researchers studying coloniality, enslavement, race and ethnic studies and examining how these issues mattered then and now.

How should the Arctic be viewed in the 21st century? In this book, a leading commentator assesses the competing players for the Arctic, looking at broad questions of governance and security. The author challenges the view that the Arctic is a passive space which is the focus of competitive advances from superpowers, arguing that it is more correctly understood as a dynamic pluriverse. Drawing on international law, international relations and diplomacy, this is an important re-assessment of the Arctic and its position in geo-politics.

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.
