Samuel M: The 1494 Treaty That Divided
Earth

The 1494 Treaty That Divided Earth

The Secret Agreement Behind Europe's Race for Global Dominion

This book is the first comprehensive academic treatment of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) and employment rights, which has a global vocation demonstrated by having been ratified by 173 States since it was adopted in 1966. Workers' rights need protection and reinforcement. To achieve this aim, international human rights standards can play an important role. The ICESCR is the most important global UN instrument in this respect. It covers a wide range of employment rights, including the right to strike, and has global application. But it is not sufficiently developed and used, and national implementation often needs improvement. Part 1 of the book analyses general issues related to the Covenant, such as context, development, challenges, influences at the global and regional levels, interpretation and procedural elements. Part 2 deals with the specific provisions which are directly linked to the employment relation. The book is based on a thorough analysis, mainly, but not exclusively, of the case law of the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR), that is monitoring the national implementation of the Covenant. Together, the chapters in this book will empower academics and practitioners in labour law to find answers to relevant and practical problems in order to better enforce and improve workers' rights. The book is the result of a project by the 'Transnational Trade Union Rights' experts Network (TTUR), linked to the European Trade Union Institute (ETUI).

The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights and the Employment Relation

Elements of International Law

Piracy

Hart Monographs in Transnational and International Law

This book offers the first comprehensive study of quasi-judicial bodies and their operation in international law. What are quasi-judicial bodies as a formulation in international law? Though these are currently legion at the international level, there is yet to be a rigorous analysis of them as a category. This book fills this gap by setting out a comprehensive and detailed map of this quasi-judicial terrain. Taking a comparative approach, it looks at the form and function of these bodies, as well as commenting on their effectiveness. It goes further to explore their understanding at the domestic and international court level. This is a fascinating study that will be of interest to all scholars of international courts and institutions.

Quasi-Judicial Bodies in International Law

Studies in International Trade and Investment Law

This book charts a pioneering course for researchers and policy makers seeking to understand, navigate and influence the decentralised international legal order. It invites readers on an exploratory journey that treats international trade, investment and tax law as laboratories for the application of the complexity framework to public international law. It describes familiar international legal regimes in unfamiliar terms by shining a light on trade, investment and tax as living sub-systems inside a self-organising network. Drawing on the vocabulary and metaphors of the complexity framework, such as emergence, feedback, attractors and path-dependency, the book explores why treaties proliferate, why some legal reforms stagnate and others cascade, and where small, well-placed interventions can redirect the whole. Moving beyond descriptive frames, the book supplies a predictive lens and a practical toolbox for steering international law, for example, towards increased resilience. A rich repertoire of examples and vivid metaphors show how legal evolution is shaped. The book's critical reflections keep the promise of complexity grounded in normative debates. Written for readers with only a basic background in the regimes that govern international economic relations and no prior knowledge of complexity, the book introduces a novel frame of reference to the study of public international law. This book is written for anyone worried about incoherence, fascinated by interconnectedness, and searching for levers of change.

Interaction and Evolution in International Economic Law

Public International Law as a Complex Adaptive System

Studies in International Law

This book offers the first comprehensive study of unjust enrichment as a principle of international law. While domestic legal systems have long recognised unjust enrichment as a basis for restitution, its role in international law remains underexplored. This book addresses this gap by examining the roles of the international norm against unjust enrichment both as an independent basis for a claim and in the development and interpretation of other international norms. It explores the far-reaching implications of this norm for inter-state relations and investment arbitration. The book advances three key arguments: that unjust enrichment claims in international law may extend to indirect recipients; that states enriched through conduct harming another state can incur liability in unjust enrichment even without a transfer of value from the harmed state to the enriched state; and that the principle of unjust enrichment is not merely subsidiary to the law of state responsibility for internationally wrongful conduct. Through rigorous analysis, the book explores the rationales underlying unjust enrichment - proprietary, fairness, and wrongfulness - and evaluates their applicability in the international arena. It also considers practical challenges such as indeterminacy, multiple-claimant situations, and the risk of proliferating disputes. Drawing on jurisprudence from the Iran-US Claims Tribunal, ICSID, and other international tribunals, as well as comparative insights from English, German, US, and other domestic laws, the book provides a nuanced framework for applying unjust enrichment in international law. It will be indispensable for scholars of public international law, practitioners engaged in inter-state adjudication, government lawyers, and investment arbitration specialists seeking principled solutions to complex disputes.

Unjust Enrichment in International Law

The modern field of comparative international law emerged in the last century, but it still suffers from a lack of intellectual and methodological foundations. This ambitious collection fills that gap. It examines the key concepts of comparative international law, including its historical and critical perspectives. Contributors from a wide geographical range present their diverse and thought-provoking views on international and comparative law. This is a much-needed and cutting-edge book on an undervalued yet topical field of research.

Foundations and Critique

Comparative International Law

This book addresses the veritable flood of litigation sparked by interest rate swaps and other financial derivatives and looks at the way in which these disputes are solved across a variety of jurisdictions. It discusses how the issue is dealt with in Europe -where derivatives litigation is a pervasive problem- by comparing solutions in the UK, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, Norway, Poland and Hungary. It also addresses financial derivatives litigation beyond Europe, namely in the US, Australia, Hong Kong, and Singapore. Derivatives litigation raises a variety of highly relevant issues: it provides insights into the duties of care owed by the bank to its clients in terms of information, transparency and warnings; it is revelatory for conflicts of interests, since banks who enter into derivatives take contrarian positions to their clients, raising the question whether they are allowed to do so despite their role as fiduciaries. The book addresses the private law effect of regulatory conduct of business rules included in the European Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID), and also looks at the capacity of public bodies to enter into derivatives agreements against the backdrop of intricate conflict of laws issues. By analysing derivatives litigation, the book sheds light on the general relationship between private law, civil procedure, supervisory actions, regulatory action, administrative law, criminal law, and alternative dispute resolution, as well as on how to deal with mass claims in the financial sector. An essential resource for practitioners involved in cross-border litigation, policy makers, and researchers.

Risk, Regulation, and Responsibility

Financial Derivatives Litigation

Hart Studies in Commercial and Financial Law

This book uncovers and reconstructs the growing body of legal principles and rules governing mortgages that have been developed by different transnational institutions and actors. It shows how mortgages have evolved from a type of real security commonly used to facilitate lending by mitigating credit risk, to a transferable commodity with the potential to affect international financial stability and consumer welfare. In doing so, the book reveals the emergence of new policy objectives and rationales for regulation that have led to changes in the structure and functions of mortgage laws. Characterising this development as a type of transnational law, the book highlights the paradigm shifts in the law of residential mortgages brought about by their increasing global relevance. The analysis reveals tensions between the goals of risk mitigation, financial stability, consumer protection and housing justice. The result is an innovative analysis at the intersection of contract law, property law and international financial regulation. The book portrays transnational mortgage law as a complex field governed by a plurality of socially and economically relevant but potentially conflicting goals and principles.

Transnational Mortgage Law

Modern Studies in European Law

Structural Principles of EU Law

This book examines the increasing marketisation of framework agreements in UK public procurement and proposes reform to refocus the purpose of this vital purchasing tool and renew the emphasis on public service delivery. Through detailed empirical research, the book examines how contracting authorities set up and use framework agreements in practice, the behaviours of centralised procurement authorities and the private sector, and how these have been addressed or not under the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 implementing EU Directives. This reveals the scale of marketisation, the effect of legal rules on framework agreement efficacy, and the need for regulatory and other reform. Going further, post-Brexit, this book also examines the relatively limited impact of the new UK Procurement Act 2023 in addressing these issues and identifies a pressing need for further regulatory, institutional, and industry reform. The book provides the reader with a detailed understanding and analysis of the rules and policies on framework agreements as developed and applied under EU law and UK law, including the UK's post-Brexit efforts at reform, and the resulting legal uncertainty. It also provides insight into the less explored attitudes, behaviours, and practices. This includes everything from centralised purchasing authorities competing against each other to provide framework agreements across the public sector to private sector organisations seeking to run framework agreements for profit. The book will be of interest to practitioners keen to understand and mitigate legal and commercial risks in setting up and using framework agreements. It will also guide policy-makers on the key priorities for targeted reform. Civil society organisations will gain insight into the ongoing challenges of ensuring transparency and accountability. The book will also be of comparative interest in the EU given the UK's experience as a Member State and internationally for countries looking to reform their approach to regulating framework agreements.
