The Unconstitutionality of Slavery (Complete Edition)

Enriched edition. Volume 1 & 2

Law and Religion

This book examines how Christian love can inform legal thought. It introduces love as a way to advance the emergent conversation between constructive theology and jurisprudence that will also inform conversations in philosophy and political theory. It explores how such thinkers as Augustine, Aquinas and Calvin utilised love in their legal thought.

Legal History in the Curriculum

Law and Criminology (R0)

&lt;p&gt;Legal Positivism has been the dominant school of legal philosophy for much of the last century, despite its many critics. Its central tenet has long been that there is no necessary connection between law and morality. This book provides a broad but clear and jargon-free account of the central objections to the theory and why those objections are sufficient to show that legal positivism is no longer tenable. This includes a broad critique of the purported distinction method of legal positivism, the idea of ‘conceptual analysis,’ as well as a detailed assessment of the most influential of all legal positivist theories, that of H.L.A. Hart. The book also provides a defense of the natural law school, which holds in contrast to legal positivism that the authority of law arises from its intrinsic connection to morality. The author demonstrates that most of the criticism of the natural law school arises from a caricatured account of that doctrine, for instance the idea that it requires substantive theological commitments or particular conceptions of human nature. In contrast, the author presents an account of natural law theory that is grounded in a commitment to moral truth, but not to any theological beliefs.&amp;nbsp; The nature of law can only be understood in terms of its moral function, to provide a clear set of moral rules that are required for a society to function effectively.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The Moral Authority of Law

Beyond Legal Positivism

Law, Justice and Power

It has long been acknowledged that the death penalty in the United States of America has been shaped by the country's history of slavery and racial violence, but this book considers the lesser-explored relationship between the two practices' respective abolitionist movements. The book explains how the historical and conceptual links between slavery and capital punishment have both helped and hindered efforts to end capital punishment. The comparative study also sheds light on the nature of such efforts, and offers lessons for how death penalty abolitionism should proceed in future. Using the history of slavery and abolition, it is argued that anti-death penalty efforts should be premised on the ideologies of the radical slavery abolitionists.

A Study in Abolition

Slavery and the Death Penalty

In "English Law and the Renaissance," Frederic William Maitland expertly navigates the intricate interplay between legal evolution and cultural transformation in late medieval and early modern England. Through a meticulous examination of historical texts and legal principles, Maitland elucidates how the Renaissance-often celebrated for its artistic and scientific advancements-profoundly influenced the trajectory of English law. His literary style combines rigorous scholarship with clarity, making complex ideas accessible while retaining their intellectual depth, thus situating his work firmly within the broader canon of legal history studies. Frederic William Maitland (1850-1906), a preeminent legal historian and scholar, brought a unique perspective to his analysis, informed by his tenure at Cambridge and his deep engagement with the evolution of legal thought. His background as a practicing lawyer and academic, coupled with his insights into the socio-political currents of his time, allowed him to explore how Renaissance humanism reshaped legal frameworks and the principles of justice in England, illustrating a pivotal moment in the history of law. "English Law and the Renaissance" is essential reading for anyone interested in legal history, Renaissance studies, or the development of the English legal system. Maitland's profound insights will enrich your understanding of how cultural phenomena can influence legal paradigms, making this work a vital addition to the library of scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike.

New York State Constitution

This volume, incorporating the work of scholars from various parts of the globe, taps the wisdom of the Westphalian (and post-Westphalian) world on the use of federalism and secession as tools for managing regional conflicts. The debate has rarely been more important than it is right now, especially in light of recent events in Catalonia, Scotland, Québec and the Sudan - all unique political contexts raising similar questions about how best to balance competing claims for autonomy, interdependence, political voice, and exit. Exploring how various nations have encountered comparable conflicts, some more and some less successfully, the book broadens the perspectives of scholars, government officials, and citizens struggling to resolve sovereignty conflicts with a full appreciation of the underlying principles they represent.&lt;br&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;This book seeks to explore the potential and actual value of parliamentary debates as a source of legislative justification. Drawing on a sample of recent Spanish legislation, the papers collected here analyse (critically) the rationale of several laws or legislative measures as it can be reconstructed from the respective parliamentary discussions. All issues covered have given rise to intense political, legal and social controversy: they range from the combat against gender violence, the legal status of bullfighting, the protection of crime victims and the so-called ‘push-backs’ at the border, to the regulation of euthanasia, the minimum living income, underage girls’ access to abortion, and joint child custody. The volume is organised into two main parts. The first group of case studies adopt a legisprudential perspective and examine parliamentary deliberations in the light of the theory and methodology of legislative justification; the contributions in the second part follow approaches that fall outside – but are largely compatible with –legisprudence, and deal with aspects such as the rhetorical strategies employed by MPs when debating bills, and the role of elected legislators as constitutional interpreters.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
