International Law in Asia

This book is a scholarly compilation that explores the diverse and evolving landscape of public maritime law across Asia. This book provides an in-depth analysis of key legislative frameworks, safety and security measures, marine environmental governance, and seafarer welfare within the region. Divided into four thematic sections-Public Maritime Legislations, securing Maritime Safety, Prevention of Vessel-Source Pollution, and Seafarer Rights-the book features contributions from esteemed academics and professionals across Asia. It offers country-specific insights, comparative analyses, and case studies from nations such as South Korea, China, Vietnam, Mongolia, Singapore, and others. The work aims to highlight the unique challenges faced by Asian countries while addressing global maritime issues such as environmental sustainability, safety regulations, and human rights.


By bringing together diverse perspectives from experts across the region, the book contributes meaningfully to the discourse on maritime governance while supporting sustainable development and legal innovation in the Asian maritime sector. It serves as a valuable resource for legal scholars, policymakers, maritime professionals, and students interested in understanding the complexities of maritime governance in the Asian context.

Public Maritime Law in Asia

Gender, Sexuality and Law is a punchy, interdisciplinary collection that speaks to one of the most debated themes of recent years and frames gender and sexuality as pivotal levers for human development. Authored by Global South scholars across law, political science, history, sociology and international relations, it brings evidence and argument from outside the usual North Atlantic axis and foregrounds how rights are claimed, contested and institutionalised in diverse legal–political settings.
 
 Grounded in rights based theory and empirical research, the volume spans Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Uganda, and Uruguay, and offers high salience case studies on sexual and reproductive rights litigation, adolescent pregnancy and public policy, women as architects of feminist peace in Colombia, the transnational spread of “gender ideology” discourse, reproductive rights gaps in Nigeria’s DDR programme on Transitional Justice, state shaped trajectories of LGBT rights in Brazil, Uganda and Uruguay, the gender stereotypes in criminal courts in Brazil and the role of technology in fostering gender inequality in the job market.
 
 By connecting courtrooms, policy design and lived realities across three continents, the book resonates directly with the UN Sustainable Development Goals—health and SRHR, education and comprehensive sexuality education, gender equality, reduced inequalities, and peace, justice and strong institutions—while offering an indispensable Global South perspective for scholars, practitioners and policy makers. Its scope, originality and policy relevance position it as a conversation shaping book with clear adoption potential across Gender &amp; Law, Human Rights, International Criminal Law, Transitional Justice, Law &amp; Society, Development Studies and Global South Studies.

'Jaw-dropping' The Economist 'A mind-altering and unforgettable read' Adam Tooze 'If you wish to know how the world really works, read this book' Misha Glenny A globe-trotting investigation into the catastrophic reality of the multi-billion-dollar global garbage trade. Dumps and landfills around the world are overflowing. The millions of tonnes of garbage generated every day have given rise to waste wars, cons and cover ups across thousands of miles and multiple oceans. And few people have any idea they're happening. Roaming across five continents, Alexander Clapp delves deep inside the world of Javanese recycling gangsters, cruise ship dismantlers in the Aegean, Tanzanian plastic pickers, whistle-blowing environmentalists in the jungles of Guatemala, and a community of Ghanaian boys who burn Western cellphones and televisions for cents an hour. He reveals how most of our trash actually lives a secret second life, getting shipped, smuggled or dumped from one country onto another, with devastating consequences for the poorest nations of the world. Waste Wars is a jaw-dropping exposé of how and why, for the last forty years, our garbage has spawned a massive global black market, one that offloads our consumption footprints onto distant continents, pristine landscapes, and unsuspecting populations.

New Approaches to Business, Human Rights and the Environment

This book critically explores the intersection of corporate activities, regulatory frameworks, and environmental social governance (ESG) issues across key industries, primarily in the Global South.With an emphasis on both environmental and social justice, the book examines how corporate actions impact local communities, ecosystems, and labor standards, and it assesses the effectiveness of ESG principles in mitigating these impacts. Through a series of in-depth case studies spanning Brazil, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Morocco, Mexico, Kenya, Thailand, and Latin America it seeks to contribute a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted challenges of implementing and enforcing ESG standards in contexts often marked by regulatory gaps, economic pressures, and socio-political complexities. Focusing on these countries is imperative because they represent diverse regulatory environments and high-impact industries where ESG issues are particularly urgent.By linking legal analysis with socio-environmental case studies, the book bridges the gap between policy intentions and on-the-ground realities, offering actionable insights for policymakers, academics, and practitioners involved in ESG, environmental law, and sustainable development. In doing so, it contributes to a growing dialogue on equitable governance and sustainable corporate practices, aiming to inspire collaborative, cross-sectoral solutions that enhance justice and sustainability in the Global South.

A Socio-Legal Perspective

Regulating Water Scarcity

This book explores the theoretical foundations and practical implications of adopting a system of binding judicial precedents in civil law and mixed jurisdictions. Drawing from the author’s dual background in Latin American and European legal traditions, the book offers a groundbreaking framework for understanding precedents not merely as persuasive sources but as normative structures with formal binding authority. Written by Hermes Zaneti Jr., a renowned scholar and public prosecutor, this work emerges from a comparative constitutionalist perspective and engages deeply with the theory of Luigi Ferrajoli. It argues that the rise of stare decisis in hybrid systems like Brazil reflects both historical contingencies and a normative evolution toward legal certainty, equality, and rational adjudication. The book introduces the notion of normative precedents and classifies their binding force in three degrees, proposing an operational methodology for judges and courts to apply precedents while respecting constitutional principles such as judicial independence and the separation of powers. This sixth, revised edition includes updated doctrinal discussions, detailed comparative analysis, and a critical reflection on the Brazilian Code of Civil Procedure (2015) and the constitutional role of the judiciary in rights protection. With its robust combination of legal theory, dogmatic analysis, and historical development, this book provides scholars, judges, and advanced students with a comprehensive model for integrating precedent into constitutional democracies without sacrificing fundamental guarantees. Ideal for academics in comparative constitutional law, legal theory, and procedural law, The Binding Value of Precedents contributes to global debates on the normative role of precedent, judicial discretion, and the epistemology of legal interpretation in post-formalist legal systems.

Studies in European Economic Law and Regulation

The book provides a comprehensive overview of how transparency is addressed within EU law, with a particular focus on EU food law. This contribution is especially relevant in light of Regulation (EU) 2019/1381 on the transparency and sustainability of the EU risk assessment in the food chain. In recent years, growing public concern over a perceived lack of transparency, further highlighted by the results of the ‘Fitness Check’ of the General Food Law, has sparked interest in this issue. Beyond this focus, the book adopts a broader approach by examining transparency as a multifaceted concept closely tied to democracy, accountability and other values. Recognising that transparency obligations may extend beyond public authorities, it further explores whether transparency can be applied to the private sector and identifies potential constraints on private actors. Through a conceptualisation of transparency in law and with an innovative analytical approach to legal texts and case law, the book provides researchers, private organisations and institutions with an extensive and nuanced understanding of transparency.

Chinese Maritime Cases Series

China (the Mainland of PRC) trades with other states in trillions of USD every year, and about 95% of the cargoes are carried by ocean-going ships calling at hundreds of Chinese ports each singe day. Due to the enormous trade volume and shipping activities, foreign ships, companies and professionals are often caught in the Chinese maritime law and court. The foreign parties involved in Chinese litigation or dispute resolution and their lawyers are more and more enthusiastic to study Chinese maritime cases in order to deal with their own cases properly or, if possible, predicate the potential risks and avoid the disputes outright. However, to date, no Chinese series casebook has ever been published. Now, for the first time, the authors offer this series casebook of delicately selected Chinese maritime judgments. Each year, the book selects a number of leading, innovative and influential Chinese maritime judgments and presents full English translation of them, together with summary, to the readers so that they can have insights of how the Chinese maritime judges interpret, apply and develop Chinese maritime law in practice. The book will benefit the worldwide students, academics, practitioners and industrial people who may be engaged in international trade, shipping, insurance and other transactions concerning China. The book will also indemnify to certain extent the situation that there is lack of authoritative sources available to foreign personnel to look into how Chinese justice system functions and grows in real life.

This book examines the practice of geo-blocking, which can be defined as the restriction of access to a digital product on the Internet based on the user’s geographical location. With the increased use of the Internet, particularly the growing consumption of digital products, the issue of geo-blocking has become more prominent and integrated into daily life. This study analyses geo-blocking practices under the European Union copyright law, focusing specifically on the Geo-blocking Regulation. Although the Geo-blocking Regulation aimed to resolve the issue of cross-border access to online products, it did not cover copyright-protected products. Consequently, copyright-protected digital products within the European Union may still be subject to geo-blocking, despite the goal of creating a Digital Single Market in the European Union. The geo-blocking debate is examined from various perspectives, exploring the most balanced approach that would support the proper functioning of the European Union internal market while respecting the interests of copyright holders, other rightsholders and users. This book assesses the need to include copyright-protected products within the scope of the Geo-blocking Regulation. To do so, it delves into the copyright law aspects of geo-blocking, particularly territorial licensing, the existing European Union legal framework regarding cross-border access to digital products, the competition law implications of this issue, and the circumvention of geo-blocking measures. In its final analysis, the book concludes that including copyright-protected digital products within the scope of the Geo-blocking Regulation would benefit users, copyright holders, and the internal market’s proper functioning, albeit with certain limitations.

Application of Geo-Blocking to Copyright-Protected Digital Products

This book provides a general vision of what a unified body of privacy law might look like, and how it has evolved to address contemporary privacy issues. Writing on the intersection between privacy law and Fintech law, this book focuses on the ongoing personal information protection reforms in China, and epitomizes a landscape of law and changes around the world. The evolution of privacy and data protection legislation across the globe is a true portrayal of the shifting of focus on privacy and data protection in the international community. This book unfolds the modern landscape of information privacy law from a comparative law perspective. Practically speaking, the aim of this book is to study the data protection legislative model in the European Union and propose a suitable legislative mechanism for personal information protection in China, based on China’s national conditions. To sum up, the central purpose of this research is to guide the rulemakers in crafting legal and policy solutions. By studying privacy, this book is trying to focus on a problem that has important ramifications for law and society.
