The Rule of Law in Context

Power of Rulers, Power of Rules: Russia’s Legal Dualism in Action

The Rule of Law in Russia

Constitutional Systems of the World

Following the successful formula of the series, this book offers an introductory but authoritative overview to the Constitution of Bangladesh. It looks at the shape and working of the Constitution, while introducing the reader to it key stakeholders. It sets out the features unique to the Bangladeshi situation and the specific challenges that rise. With the opening key words and end of chapter further reading recommendations, this is the ideal starting point for students if this fascinating state and its governing framework.

A Contextual Analysis

The Constitution of Bangladesh

Judicial Review

The book examines the practice of judicial reasoning in Tort law, understood as a process of justification, consisting of both deductive and non-deductive elements, and therefore involving a significant element of choice or discretion. The book divides the elements of judicial reasoning into four conceptual categories: factual assessments, application of legislative and judge-made rules, reliance on reasonableness, and policy considerations. To discuss these elements in a comparative perspective the book uses the English and French judicial traditions of Tort law as case studies. This enables the author to present a range of methods of establishing facts, drawing inferences, using legal sources and relying on policy arguments. By closely examining selected Tort judgments from both jurisdictions, the book elucidates the phenomenon of law-making through adjudication in both a non-codified and a codified system of liability. It offers a reflection on different approaches legal systems may adopt to the importance in the process of judicial justification of such issues as certainty and truth, common sense, consistency with previous judicial decisions and policy.
The book connects the choice of approaches in judicial reasoning in Tort law with its procedural and institutional context.

Judicial Reasoning in Tort Law

Previously known as Drafting Agreements in the Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Industries, this title provides precedent agreements for the main types of commercial transaction encountered in the life sciences, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries. In addition to the print version, each precedent is available via an accompanying website in a format which can be easily downloaded and edited. Detailed commentary on legal, commercial and practice issues accompanies every precedent. Provided by specialist lawyers from across Europe, this commentary also highlights important differences between English law and that of other key EU jurisdictions: Germany, France, the Netherlands, Spain and Sweden. Commentary on specific considerations for the US is also provided. In addition to precedent commentaries, the book also contains detailed commentary and discussion of legal issues common to the life sciences, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, as well as links to relevant materials (eg regulatory materials on clinical trials). This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Intellectual Property and IT online service.

Modern Studies in European Law

This book explores what judges do and how they perceive their roles in the context of growing dissensus over liberal democracy. Focusing on the European landscape, it asks eighteen judges how they perceive their roles when judicial independence and democracy are under pressure. The book features interviews with judges from various EU and non-EU Member States and courts, complemented by a series of academic commentaries discussing the relationship between law and politics in times of dissensus over liberal democracy. Each narrative reveals unique personal experiences and reflections, shedding light on the role of the judiciary and the rule of law in the face of contemporary challenges. While the book engages with these issues through European narratives, its findings contribute to broader debates beyond Europe and the EU.

Dissensus over Liberal Democracy

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This open access book presents an all-encompassing way to understand lobbying: the 'Diversion Guide'. This shows that lobbying is problematic when institutions are diverted from acting in the public interest. It reveals why diversions happen, how they are linked together, and what can be done to prevent them. The reader can use the 'Diversion Guide' to identify any problem about lobbying, and test when an officeholder has been diverted from acting in the public interest. The book examines how lobbying can encourage citizen participation and lead to informed law and policy, but is not always fair. It considers the way in which wealthy and influential people can gain greater access to the United Kingdom's political system than most to shape the laws that govern everyone. Scandals are often reported in the media surrounding unequal access, corruption, the revolving door, and more. Unchecked, such lobbying corrodes trust in public institutions. It is vital that the problems surrounding lobbying are clearly understood to avoid a system of weak regulations and to ensure that better regulations are created to restore public trust in politics. The 'Diversion Guide' can be used to this end. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by Hamad bin Khalifa University.

An Institutional Diversion Framework

Lobbying, Democracy and Public Trust

This book articulates and defends a sceptical general account of parliamentary sovereignty.

It challenges the orthodox approach to this fundamental doctrine by making three key heretical claims. First, there are some laws that Parliament cannot make. Second, there are several ways in which primary legislation can be overridden or set aside by institutions other than Parliament. And third, Parliament has the power to bind itself as to the substance of future legislation. All three positions are developed using arguments which depend on existing legal materials and are compatible with the normative underpinnings of the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty. 

The book combines theoretical and doctrinal analysis. The theoretical part of the book situates Parliament's authority to legislate in the broader context of an examination of constitutional and political authority. It develops a conception of the ways in which competing views on the scope of Parliament's legislative authority are mediated into law. The doctrinal part of the book reconsiders Parliament's legal position. It proposes a novel conception of Parliament's power to bind itself, rooted in the idea of commitments. It defends the existence of a judicial power to impose narrowly conceived freestanding limits on Parliament's law-making authority, rooted in the rule of law. Finally, the book examines the challenges posed to parliamentary sovereignty by both its internal procedures and the devolved legislatures.

A Sceptical Restatement

Parliamentary Sovereignty

Examines whether the rule of law can endure without its natural law and metaphysical foundations, arguing for a renewed, human-centered legal order grounded in objective moral principles and capable of addressing contemporary challenges such as AI, technocracy, and decolonization.
This provocative interdisciplinary volume addresses a mounting global crisis: the erosion of the rule of law in an increasingly secular and technological world. As societies move into what the authors call the "fourth era" of legal history, the rule of law is frequently reduced to a mere "toolkit" for elites or a "checklist" for bureaucratic efficiency, stripped of its deeper moral and transcendent roots. The book explores a vital question: can legal systems remain just when they are "truncated of transcendence" and disconnected from a higher moral order? By sifting through the legacies of legal giants like Lon Fuller and theologians like Karl Barth, the contributors argue that a purely procedural "inner morality" is insufficient to protect human dignity against authoritarian relapses or the cold logic of "technocratisation." 
Central to the book's unique vision is a multivalent, pluralistic re-envisioning of global norms. Drawing on the Christian philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd, specifically his concept of "sphere sovereignty," the authors propose a framework where diverse religious and secular traditions can collaborate without sacrificing their distinct identities. This approach offers a powerful way to decolonize the rule of law, moving away from "one-size-fits-all" Western impositions toward a culturally sensitive synthesis of universal principles and local traditions. 
The text also tackles the controversial relationship between Natural Law and the 10 Commandments, debating whether positive laws should be grounded in "naturally knowable" truths or specific religious revelations in a pluralistic state. 
Looking toward the future, the authors issue a stark warning against the rise of Generative AI (GenAI) in legal adjudication. They argue that replacing human value judgments with machine-driven algorithms threatens to eliminate the discretion and relational interaction essential to true justice. To counter this, the book calls for educational reform and a shift toward "principled legal education" that prioritizes ethics, restorative justice, and a "facts first" approach. Ultimately, this work is a call to action for legal professionals, theologians, and the public to reclaim law as a framework for human flourishing-a "language of love" between the divine and the human that protects the vulnerable from the arbitrary exercise of power.

Reclaiming Justice Through Natural Law

The Rule of Law, Human Dignity and the Future of Democracy

This book provides a state-of-the art picture of the transformation of the global legal market. The traditional business model of law firms has been upended by new forms of organisation, often (but not exclusively) brought about by technological innovation and the use of technology for the execution of legal activities, which implies the so-called 'servitisation' of the legal market. Such trends raise a broad range of questions of both practical and academic nature, which the book tackles extensively, relying on the competence of a remarkable group of experts, coming from different professional backgrounds and knowledgeable of many different jurisdictions, from Europe to the USA, from Asia to Australia. In particular, the book has three main focuses: 1) a law and economics analysis of today's legal market, combined with a description of how regulatory changes have had an impact on competition in the legal services business, and on the evolution of this industry; 2) a thorough investigation of the impact of technological disruptions on the legal services industry, considering how legal tech companies and artificial intelligence solutions are reshaping the activities of legal professionals and the legal market more broadly; 3) a survey of the "new lawyers" and other new legal professionals, along with a reflection on the reforms needed to align their education with market needs. The book caters to all those interested, professionally or academically, in keeping track of the evolution of the legal services market. Practising lawyers who want to be "future-proof", law students, new specialised legal professionals active in the business and financial sectors, scholars and other researchers (both lawyers and economists) conducting research in the field, as well as anyone engaged in providing legal education, will find in this book extremely valuable insights on current trends and future developments in the legal market.

How Innovation, Legal Tech and AI Have Been Reshaping the Legal Market

Constitutionalism in Asia

This book presents an in-depth interrogation of the theory and application of the Basic Structure Doctrine in the Federation of Malaysia. The Basic Structure Doctrine, famously introduced in the 1973 Indian Supreme decision of Kesavananda Bharati v State of Kerala AIR - which held that certain core or fundamental features in the Constitution of India could not be amended by Parliament even if it met all procedural requirements - was initially rejected when it was first argued in Malaysia in the 1975 case of Loh Kooi Choon v Government of Malaysia and lay dormant for the next three decades. Judicial winds shifted in 2010 when Malaysia's apex court, the Federal Court, cited Kesavananda with approval in the case of Sivarasa Rasiah v Badan Peguam Malaysia &amp; Anor, and observed that it was 'clear from the way in which the Federal Constitution is constructed that there are certain features that constitute its basic fabric' and that 'any statute (including one amending the Constitution) that offends the basic structure may be struck down as unconstitutional.' In a quick succession of cases, the Federal Court cemented this doctrine in Malaysia's jurisprudence and deployed it to defend the court's judicial power. These widely-publicised cases generated much debate beyond the legal fraternity and judiciary and often polarised different sectors of Malaysian society. This collection of essays responds to this extremely important debate on the limits of constitutional amendments as a form of constitution-making in Malaysia by considering the theory behind the Basic Structure Doctrine and critically examining how it has been harnessed by the Federal Court and by other political actors - most notably Islamists and secularists; and royalists and republicans - on the ground.
