Malagodi M: The Constitutional System of
Nepal

The Constitutional System of Nepal

A Contextual Analysis

Oñati International Series in Law and Society

This book brings together theoretical and empirical research, as well as interdisciplinary and comparative studies with the aim to direct the contemporary debates within the field of ombud scholarship. Most countries have public ombud institutions that are supposed to function as mechanisms of dispute resolution outside courts for citizens seeking redress for complaints against public bodies. While research on these oversight bodies has long focused on legal aspects, since the last decade scholars have increasingly become interested in historical, political and social aspects. This book makes a contribution in this multi-disciplinary field by filling two key gaps in the literature: the first part showcases recent empirical research, the second part covers critical analytical approaches. Taken together, this volume promotes a social science oriented understanding of ombud institutions as embedded in specific social contexts, which are formed by societal forces while also contributing to the shaping of modern societies. Critical examination of how and under which conditions ombuds operate enables us to identify blind spots in both the literature and practice. On the basis of case studies from different world regions, including Austria, Australia, Colombia, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, the UK and the USA, investigated from various disciplinary perspectives, the contributions develop the field of ombud research further. Its contents and accessible style make the book relevant for anyone interested in ombud and oversight institutions: academics, researchers, students, and practitioners alike.

This book discusses some of the most important issues facing administrative law and related doctrines. Leading public law scholars from across the common law world have contributed chapters to recognise the exceptional scholarship and career of Matthew Groves, Distinguished Professor at Deakin University, Australia. Over the last century, the power of the administrative state has grown immensely and the scope of administrative law as a field of inquiry has grown with it. This collection of essays provides an up-to-date analysis of some of the most important issues in administrative law in the 2020s, including: access to justice issues; the role, purpose and future of ombuds institutions and tribunals; government liability within and beyond judicial review; integrity bodies; 'lawfare'; the role of policies in government decisionmaking; and the tension between military and civilian systems of justice. These topics have been central to the work and career of Matthew Groves. Readers interested in public law - whether practitioners, researchers or students - will discover a wealth of engaging and thought-provoking considerations of the most topical current issues in administrative law by a selection of prominent academics.

Controlling the Administrative State

Hart Studies in Constitutional Theory

This is the second part of a 2-volume set which presents an in-depth investigation into the canon of constitutionally conforming interpretation. This second volume builds upon the insights of the first volume, which includes national reports on the use of constitutional interpretation. In Volume 2, the analysis is extended beyond the national context, discussing its application in the supranational and international contexts, including in EU law and the domestic use of international law. It presents several critical perspectives, challenging the legitimacy of constitutionally conforming interpretation, and looks at the invisible constitution, constitutional amendments, and the impact of legalism. The volume is rounded off by three comparative analyses, which formulate universally applicable insights. Together with Volume 1, this book fills an important gap in legal scholarship and sets the stage for cross-national discourse on this critical legal method.

The Rule of Law in Russia

This book is an insightful, thought-provoking study of one of the world's most important courts. There is no doubt that the European Court of Justice has had a transformative effect on EU Law, but not without controversy. 

This book explores these criticisms, asking if concerns over judicial activism, unconventional interpretative methods, conflicts with national courts and over-reach are justified. Drawing on the expertise of leading commentators in their sectors, its ambitious scope explores the question from across the spectrum of EU Law. Its analysis includes the political dimension, giving the fullest understanding of the environment in which the Court and its judgments have operated.

The European Court of Justice and its Critics

This book provides a novel judicial framework for receiving and considering religious and cultural claims in shaping human rights in constitutional secular democracies. It does this through an extended case study of the Indian constitutional jurisprudence. Abortion and surrogacy, LGBTQ + rights, sex work and euthanasia are arguably the most controversial human rights issues of our time. They all invite passionate religious and cultural debate but are not themselves religious or cultural rights issues. Instead, they pose a fundamental constitutional question: How far can religion and culture go in shaping general human rights in secular constitutional democracies? Moving beyond the logic of individual rights, this book provides an integrated and holistic approach to answering this classic question of constitutional law. To do this, it proposes an innovative empirically backed normative-theoretical framework which synthesises insights from cultural psychoanalysis, feminist legal scholarship, socio-legal method, constitutional law, evidence law, and political theory. It looks at a unique constellation of cases belonging to eight different human rights themes covering the period since India's independence in 1947 and systematically analyses the religious and cultural claims made in those cases. It finds that in India, a more holistic approach to answering our classic constitutional puzzle requires a simultaneous consideration of three different theories: A theory of constitutional interpretation which formulates restrictions on a judge considering religious and cultural claims in fundamental rights cases; A theory of judicial notice which determines when such claims can be admitted without proof; A theory of secularism and public reason which argues that the claims must be given weight in the final decision only if they match defensible conceptions of constitutional values. The book develops these theories and applies them to the Indian cases, providing an innovative approach to an age-old question.

With God as our Witness

Religion, Culture, and Human Rights in India

This volume explores the state of representative democracy on the global stage. It does this against the backdrop of crises such as the USA Capitol attack on 6 January 2021, recent refusals to accept election results in various countries, and attempts to restrict the voting franchise, as well as longer-term trends such as the rise of populism and declining trust in political elites. The first substantive chapter examines representative democracy in theory, history and practice today. Taking the representative model as their point of departure, the subsequent chapters explore a range of themes in relation to this model. The contributions include timely reappraisals of democracy in countries, such as the UK and USA, with old, well-established democratic structures, as well as analyses of the state of democracy in regions such as Africa, Asia and South America, where democracy has had a more chequered history. Across all of its chapters, the book invites readers to rethink fundamental questions about representative democracy: Why is it valuable? How should it be organised? Do steps need to be taken to strengthen representative democracy, and if so, what are those steps? The volume's target audience - politicians, public servants and interested members of the public - are provided with arguments and evidence to form their own views at a time when the ideals and practices of representative democracy are being challenged around the world, and new ideas and initiatives to revitalise it are being debated and implemented.

Democracy in Crisis?

This book gives extraordinary new insights into the legal, political and industrial strife in the UK of the early 1970s, focusing on the National Industrial Relations Court and how its independence came to be injured at a time of national crisis. Constitutional and employment lawyers, and indeed anyone interested in the history of the times, will not want to be without this deeply researched yet entertaining work. When the Heath Government came to power in 1970, it set up the National Industrial Relations Court to referee highly contentious disputes between unions and employers. Regarded with hostility by the labour movement from the start, the Court and its President, Sir John Donaldson, faced mounting suspicion, and were regularly front-page news. When Donaldson jailed five dockers in 1972 - the Pentonville Five - for defying the Court's orders, strikes erupted and the docks closed. With the country's food supplies dwindling, a state of emergency loomed. How had it come to this? Could a way through be found? This is a revelatory account of the National Industrial Relations Court's defining crisis, set in the context of a wider, and frequently startling, exposition of how Donaldson went about his role as its President. Peter Oldham KC combines decades of experience as a barrister with archival research to shine a bright new light on how and why the Court found itself doing - in Donaldson's own words - 'rather peculiar things'.
