The Unconstitutionality of Slavery (Complete Edition)

Enriched edition. Volume 1 & 2

Law and Criminology (R0)

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This book discusses the relation between morality and politics, and morality and law, a field that has been studied for more than two thousand years The law is a part of human culture, and this touches upon a dynamic reality that is connected to the relation between nature and freedom, nature and culture. If such relations are not clearly understood, as is the case today, the relation between morality and law cannot be properly comprehended either.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt;The relationship between morality and criminal law must constantly evolve to meet the needs of changing times and circumstances. Social changes and new situations require new answers. And since the relationship involves criminal law, legal philosophy and legal history, interdisciplinary approaches are always needed. Featuring fifteen original contributions by legal scholars from various European and American universities, the book does not pretend to solve the complexity of the relation between morality and criminal law, but instead expresses criticism, offers some proposals and stimulates further thought.&lt;br&gt; &lt;br&gt; The book tackles the topic from an interdisciplinary perspective (criminal law, constitutional law, legal philosophy and legal history, among others). As such, it appeals not only to scholars and students, but also to lawyers, policymakers, historians, theologians, philosophers and general readers who are interested in the legal, social, political and philosophical issues of our time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Exploring Testamentary Dispositions and Estate Planning

The Curiosities and Law of Wills

In "Res Judicat√¶," Augustine Birrell presents a profound exploration of the nature of justice and the implications of legal judgments within the fabric of society. Written in a style marked by eloquent prose and a keen philosophical perspective, the book deftly navigates the intricacies of the law while employing rich historical context and engaging anecdotes. Birrell'Äôs ability to weave together personal reflections and legal principles offers readers a unique lens through which to view the weight of judicial decisions and their reverberations in the community. This work not only reflects the legal landscape of Birrell'Äôs time but also serves as a meditation on universal themes of morality and ethics in human conduct. Augustine Birrell, a prominent British politician, writer, and lawyer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, brings a wealth of experience to "Res Judicat√¶." His extensive career, including his roles as Chief Secretary for Ireland and a member of the British Parliament, provided him with firsthand insight into the intersections of law, governance, and societal expectation. Birrell's literary prowess and nuanced understanding of human nature inform the philosophical underpinnings of this work, reflecting his belief in the importance of justice as a societal pillar. Recommended for scholars, legal professionals, and general readers alike, "Res Judicat√¶" invites contemplation on the profound implications of judicial decisions in shaping human experience. Birrell'Äôs articulate and thoughtful discourse encourages readers to reflect on their own understanding of justice and the role of law in public life. This book is an essential addition to the library of anyone interested in law, ethics, or the historical development of legal thought.

Res Judicatæ

&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

Using a thematic approach to American law and legal history, The Common Law Tradition in America introduces readers to the scholars, judges, and critics who made the law at once a stable source of rules and a dynamic system capable of responding to social and economic changes.

Law, Justice and Power

This book explains how the course of abolitionism, and the strategies and tactics of the anti-death penalty movement, have been shaped and influenced by the history of slavery and abolition.

A Study in Abolition

Slavery and the Death Penalty

In 'Legal Status of Women in Iowa', Jennie L. Wilson meticulously examines the legal rights and status of women in the state of Iowa during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Through an extensive analysis of legal documents, court cases, and historical records, Wilson sheds light on the societal norms and legal restrictions that shaped the lives of women in Iowa at the time. With a clear and scholarly writing style, she navigates through complex legal terminology and provides a comprehensive overview of the legal landscape for women in Iowa. This book not only serves as an important historical record but also as a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of women's rights in the United States. Wilson's meticulous research and attention to detail make this book a must-read for anyone interested in women's history and legal studies. Scholastically rigorous and thoroughly researched, 'Legal Status of Women in Iowa' is a crucial addition to the field of gender studies and legal history.

Unveiling Iowa's Legal Gender Equality Journey

Legal Status of Women in Iowa

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.

Economics and Finance (R0)

&lt;p&gt;This book is the third installment in a series of volumes looking at episodes in American economic history from a public choice perspective. Each chapter discusses citizens, special interests, and government officials responding to economic incentives in both markets and politics. In doing so, the book provides fresh insights into important periods of American history, from the Rhode Island’s 1788 Referendum on the U.S. Constitution and the political influence of women’s clubs in the United States. The volume features economic historians such as Ruth Wallis Herndon, junior public choice scholars such as Jayme Lemke and Leo Krasnozhon, and political scientists such as Michael Faber.&amp;nbsp;This volume will be useful for researchers and students interested in economics, history, political science, economic history, public choice, and political economy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Public Choice Analyses of American Economic History

&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;

Studies on Parliamentary Justification of Legislation

Debating Laws

&lt;p&gt;This book is devoted to an idea of a second round of codification of certain new rules for treaty interpretation. Currently, treaty interpretation is guided by Articles 31 through 33 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (VCLT). The fundamental rule is that a treaty shall be interpreted in good faith in accordance with the ordinary meaning to be given to the terms of the treaty in their context and in the light of its object and purpose. These rules lay the foundation for treaty interpretation. They represent the first round of codification of the contents of some previous customary international law rules. The book argues that the current rules are overly simplified. After almost fifty years of codification of the VCLT, the codified text in it is practically insufficient in addressing some traditional treaty interpretation issues (such as the interpretation involving time factors or technology development) and in coping with some new development of international law (such as the diversification and fragmentation of international treaties) and new challenges (such as the need of coordination between different treaties and the need of introducing external values, including human rights, into a treaty through treaty interpretation process). The book further argues that there is a need to have a second round of codification so as to incorporate new rules into the VCLT to be followed by treaty interpreters to make treaty interpretation more consistent and transparent, and more in line with the shared value of international community. The book proposes the contents of certain new rules to be considered as the new codified rules for treaty interpretation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
