Bergeron: The Jury's Out

The Jury's Out

The Fight to Save the American Legal System

This book is the first investigation of the relationship between EU digital sovereignty and sustainability strategies. It maps the ambitions and limitations of EU digital strategic autonomy and explores the structural challenges underlying its relationship with its green transition objectives in the context of the ongoing wars in neighbouring European countries and the consequent tensions in the EU energy sector. The EU is racing to achieve technological independence from third countries and foreign multinational companies to protect its digital sovereignty and preserve its fundamental rights. In the EU, digitalisation and the green transformation are seen as twin transitions. Yet, EU digital sovereignty strategies have a significant environmental cost. Reaching a status of strategic autonomy of the EU at the level of digital infrastructures, products, services and data implies higher energy consumption and exploitation of natural resources. Moreover, the geopolitical tensions following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have provoked an unprecedented energy crisis, which is affecting EU economies and impacting objectives of the twin transitions. The book offers an interdisciplinary analysis of the major EU regulatory and policy instruments in this field, providing an invaluable guide for academics, practitioners, and policymakers navigating the complex issues of preserving digital sovereignty and addressing climate change in times of war and energy crisis.

Digital Sovereignty and the Green Transition

This work adds an important new dimension to the literature on the Caribbean Court of Justice and on regional integration courts generally. Part I focuses on the operation of the CCJ itself, whilst Part II provides a comparative study of the CCJ and four other regional courts.

Digitising Cultural Heritage

Drawing on the experience of recognised experts from across a range of different fields and jurisdictions, this landmark publication tackles default rules in private law in comparative perspective. Often underestimated, but highly influential, default rules are non-mandatory rules that kick in where nothing else has been agreed or provided. The contributions explore default rules from a variety of angles relevant to both scholarship and legal practice, including: - behavioural aspects and the role of platform terms in the digital age; - the remit and operation of defaults in different areas, ranging from contract and commercial law to succession, civil procedure and private international law; - a comparison between Common law and Civilian approaches as well as the EU level; - the perspectives of different 'players' engaged in the generation and application of default rules.

Default Rules in Private Law

The U.S. Constitution is silent about a right to privacy, yet the Supreme Court determined in the 1965 reproductive rights case Griswold v. Connecticut, that such a right is inferred from the Bill of Rights. The reasoning in the landmark case hinged on an unexpected word – penumbra. The Court concluded, in other words, that the unmentioned right to privacy resides in the shadows of the amendments. But this was not the first time penumbral imagery was used in legal writings, and its broader cultural usage dates back much further. Jared Schroeder's The Penumbra Problem provides a much-needed – and quite colorful – social and cultural history of the term. The penumbra concept, it turns out, wasn't an accidental choice but instead a well-selected term with centuries of transnational history. Schroeder tells its story through two intertwining narratives: first, how the word penumbra transcended its oblique scientific origins to become a distinct cultural concept; and, second, the parallel story of its evolving use in legal thought. The book tracks back and forth in time, creating an unexpected lineage of people and works who became unwitting champions of the penumbra concept, including mathematician Johannes Kepler, feminist activist Estelle Griswold, British thinker Robert Hooke, and lexicographer Noah Webster. Pairing these stories with the writings of great legal thinkers such as Willam Douglas and Oliver Wendell Holmes, Schroeder is able to construct a kind of etymological love letter to this obscure concept. Not everyone has supported the privacy precedent, though, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is in danger today. Schroeder's clever, utterly unique history is, at its core, a call to redouble efforts to save the right to privacy. He argues that we must understand its ponderous, indeed uncertain, origins to fully appreciate the precarity in which it exists today, and only then can we adequately fight for it.

Hart Monographs in Transnational and International Law

Why do some international courts wield broad authority while others face pushback or fade into irrelevance? This book provides novel theoretical and empirical insights into this question. It offers a fresh, interdisciplinary perspective on the authority of international courts, drawing from law, political science and behavioural research. It develops, in Part I, a theoretical model and analytical framework for assessing these questions. The model explains how authority relationships between courts and their audiences - such as states, NGOs, individual applicants, and domestic courts - are formed, maintained, or contested. In Part II, the book applies this analytical framework to in-depth case studies of two selected international courts: the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the Economic Community of West African States. These studies not only provide deeper insights into the authority of these courts but also demonstrate how the analytical framework can be applied to other international courts to generate an enhanced understanding of international court authority. The book sheds new light on why some courts enjoy enduring authority and others face pushback, offering powerful tools for understanding the behaviour of international courts and their audiences.

A Behavioural Framework

The Authority of International Courts

This book presents cutting-edge analysis of one of the most significant constitutional crises in recent British history: the prolonged and intense struggle between government and parliament for control over Brexit. It argues the crisis was very largely caused by the emergence of an Executive-centric approach to governance it dubs 'Whitehall Plus', and the strong parliamentary-push back it both provoked and responded to. The book shows how the crisis exposed and widened deep fault-lines running through core doctrines and practices of the British constitution - profound disagreements long held unresolved and in abeyance, but which exploded into high-octane conflict during the period.

Available open access digitally under CC-BY-NC-ND licence. This groundbreaking volume exposes the systematic violence embedded within the UK's asylum system as experienced by unaccompanied children and young people. Drawing on innovative participatory research methodology, the authors reveal how 'hostile environment' policies create devastating 'tipping points' that transform bureaucratic processes into acts of structural violence. Through rigorous legal analysis and compelling empirical evidence, this essential text challenges readers to confront the profound human cost of hostile immigration policy while offering concrete strategies for trauma-informed reform. It is an urgent call for systemic change that will resonate with academics, policy makers and practitioners across law, social work, migration studies and human rights.

Elements of International Law

After the devastation of two world wars, Europe sought to prevent future conflict through new institutions-one of the most significant being the European Court of Human Rights. In this updated edition, Angelika Nussberger provides a comprehensive introduction to the Court, examining its mission, structure, procedures, and evolving jurisprudence. The book explores how the Court has become a cornerstone of modern international and human rights law, while also facing mounting internal and external pressures. These include a surge in applications, political resistance to external criticism, and challenges in maintaining neutrality on contentious issues like migration and criminal justice. It also addresses tensions with national courts as well as attacks on the Court's authority by various actors. This second edition also examines the impact of Russia's cessation as a party to the European Convention on Human Rights in 2022, as well as increasing resistance to implement judgements from nations such as Türkiye. Furthermore, it discusses recent landmark rulings on climate change and the reversal of its approach towards the protection of minorities in the Baltic States. Through careful analysis of landmark cases-from Lawless v. Ireland to Klimaseniorinnen v. Switzerland- this book illustrates the Court's profound influence on European social and political discourse and ultimately asks whether the Court can continue to serve as "Europe's conscience" amid rising populism and shifting values.
