SpringerBriefs in Law

This book unveils the details of the processes and deliberations that culminated in the consensual global commitment to decisively confront racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and other forms of intolerance. It settles the pre-conceived and prejudicial controversies raised against the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action. High level delegates and leaders of structures of the conference address the development of the vision of nations for racial justice, building the structures of dialogue towards and during the third world conference against racism, choosing the leadership of the conference, consensus building especially on the so-called difficult issues, the role of championing states such as South Africa (host and then symbol of victory against racism) and Brazil (home to the largest population of people of African heritage outside Africa), and the legacy of the conference and outcome document. It reminds humanity of the merits and nobility of its Durban resolve, based on undertakings in Geneva, Strasbourg, Santiago de Chile, Dakar, and Teheran, under the auspices of the United Nations, and the significance of standing by it.

Landmark Cases in Company Law

WINNER of 75th Nation­al Jew­ish Book Award: Biography 'FIVE STARS ... Magnificent' Telegraph 'Compulsively readable' Financial Times 'Gripping and timely' The Times 'Crackingly told' Philippe Sands 'A kind of masterclass' Sebastian Junger THE NEW BOOK FROM THE BESTSELLING, COSTA PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE VOLUNTEER The true story of a Jewish lawyer who returned to Germany after WWII to prosecute war crimes, only to find himself pitted against a nation determined to bury the past. At the end of the Nuremberg trial in 1946, some of the greatest war criminals in history were sentenced to death, but hundreds of thousands of Nazi murderers and collaborators remained at large. The Allies were ready to overlook their pasts as the Cold War began, and the horrors of the Holocaust were in danger of being forgotten. In The Prosecutor, Jack Fairweather brings to life the remarkable story of Fritz Bauer, a gay German Jew who survived the Nazis and made it his mission to force his countrymen to confront their complicity in the genocide. In this deeply researched book, Fairweather draws on unpublished family papers, newly declassified German records, and exclusive interviews to immerse readers in the dark, unfamiliar world of postwar West Germany where those who implemented genocide run the country, the CIA is funding Hitler's former spy-ring in the east, and Nazi-era anti-gay laws are strictly enforced. But once Bauer lands on the trail of Adolf Eichmann, he won't be intimidated. His journey takes him deep into the rotten heart of West Germany, where his fight for justice will set him against his own government and a network of former Nazis and spies determined to silence him. In a time when the history of the Holocaust is taken for granted, The Prosecutor reveals the courtroom battles that were fought to establish its legacy and the personal cost of speaking out. The result is a searing portrait of a nation emerging from the ruins of fascism and one man's courage in forcing his people--and the world--to face the truth.

Exploring the Impact of Intangible Cultural Heritage on Conservation Practices

The Spillover Effect of Intangible Cultural Heritage

This book assembles critical contributions on the work of TRS Allan, the Professor Emeritus of Jurisprudence and Public Law at the University of Cambridge, whose leading work in legal and constitutional theory spans almost 45 years. Allan has charted a distinctive path for legal, political, and moral theory and practice and has become a highly significant figure in the UK and in common law/parliamentary systems around the world. His ideas challenge established opinions about constitutional law within these systems as well as established views about the rule of law from more abstract or philosophical perspectives. Allan claims that law and morality find an inherent connection through the rule of law. He argues that there is a connection that flourishes in common law jurisdictions because although Parliament has sovereign legislative powers, its laws gain their full legal meaning only through an interpretive lens. This lens seeks to reconcile sovereign will with legality's basic moral ideals, especially the idea that law must be general and capable of guiding behaviour and thus respectful of the equality and dignity of its subjects. Allan's scholarship is powerful yet controversial, and it has inspired 20 leading scholars from the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand to engage with the central themes of his work. By doing so, the contributors help to make that work accessible to a new generation of scholars and students. They also provide a timely framework for engaging in the most important challenges facing our democracies today: how our legal systems do, or do not, honour and respect democracy and therefore legislative sovereignty while at the same time honouring and respecting the rule of law, or the 'Promise of Legality'.

Critical Reflections on the Work of TRS Allan

The Promise of Legality

“A tale of rapacious colonialism, Cold War spy games, dazzling technical innovation, big business rivalry, big power geopolitics . . . Niarchos has produced an unflinching, landmark work on the nature of extractive capitalism.” —Patrick Radden Keefe, New York Times best-selling author of Empire of Pain and Say Nothing Epic, shocking, and deeply reported, The Elements of Power tells the story of the war for the global supply of battery metals—essential for the decarbonization of our economies—and the terrible, bloody human cost of this badly misunderstood industry Congo is rich. Swaths of the war-torn African country lack basic infrastructure, and, after many decades of colonial occupation, its people are officially among the poorest in the world. But hidden beneath the soil are vast quantities of cobalt, lithium, copper, tin, tantalum, tungsten, and other treasures. Recently, this veritable periodic table of resources has become extremely valuable because these metals are essential for the global “energy transition”—the plan for wealthy nations to wean themselves off fossil fuels by shifting to sustainable forms of energy, such as solar and wind. The race to electrify the world’s economy has begun, and China has a considerable head start. From Indonesia to South America to Central Africa, Beijing has invested in mines and infrastructure for decades. But the U.S. has begun fighting back with massive investments of its own, as well as sanctions and disruptive tariffs. In this rush for green energy, the world has become utterly reliant on resources unearthed far away and willfully blind to the terrible political, environmental, and social consequences of their extraction. If the Democratic Republic of the Congo possesses such riches, why are its children routinely descending deep into treacherous mines to dig with the most rudimentary of tools, or in some cases their bare hands? Why are Indonesia’s seas and skies being polluted in a rush for battery metals? Why is the Western Sahara, a source for phosphates, still being treated like a colony? Who must pay the price for progress? With unparalleled, original reporting, Nicolas Niarchos reveals how the scramble to control these metals and their production is overturning the world order, just as the global race to drill for oil shaped the twentieth century. Exploring the advent of the lithium-ion battery and tracing the supply chain for its production, Niarchos tells the story both of the people driving these tectonic changes and those whose lives are being upended. He reveals the true, devastating consequences of our best intentions and helps us prepare for an uncertain future. If you have ever used a smartphone or driven an electric vehicle, you are implicated.

Palgrave Studies in Race, Ethnicity, Indigeneity and Criminal Justice

This Handbook addresses the role of the criminal-legal system in projecting and enforcing racial injustice across the globe. It consists of high-profile contributions that expose structural relations, global colonial and imperial histories, class oppression, and ongoing hegemonic domination that generate racial injustices and are embedded in criminalization and law enforcement. The Handbook considers racist ideologies and their origins, racist institutions, procedures, and practices, and their impacts, and resistance/collective responses to racism. It includes a range of different types of chapters including conceptual/theoretical, empirical, methodological, practitioner, and activist insights. It speaks to contemporary issues and is first of its kind to address racial injustice on a global scale. It is explicitly anti-racist and gathers works of critical criminology, sociology, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and cognate fields. The Handbook pays special attention to intersectional dynamics including nexuses of racism, class, gender, and sexuality. The Handbook focusses on the settler colonial and global majority countries, their peoples and their struggles, including questions of Indigenous justice.

Masterpieces of Contemporary Jurisprudents in China

This book is the first academic monograph in China to comprehensively examine the concept, principles, and system of civil law from an ethical point of view. Under the background that China has promulgated the Civil Code, it is necessary to analyze the relevant contents of the Civil Code from all aspects, in depth and from various angles. The basic point of view is that China’s Civil Code should not only consider the advanced nature, but also take into account the national character, sublimation, and inheritance, and to meet the needs of modern society and demonstrate the ethical value. This book is highly readable, not only for professional research groups, but also for students and ordinary readers interested in Chinese civil law. This book is designated as a required reading list for law majors in many universities across China and is also published in Taiwan (PRC) and Japan.

An Ethical Analysis of Civil Law

Sustainable Development Goals Series

This volume provides a nuanced analysis of the profound impact left by the dissenting opinion in the Tokyo Trial by Justice Radha Binod Pal's&nbsp;ideological stance on modern international criminal law. It consists of a detailed examination of this bold opinion on post-war justice that built the legacy of Justice Radha Binod Pal. Through an interdisciplinary perspective, this collection analyses the contemporary impact of Justice Pal's dissent and his ideologies and how they can impact contemporary dialogue in international law revolving around fairness, justice, accountability and inclusivity in international law and global power dynamics. It explores the intersection of his critique with contemporary concerns such as the decolonisation of international law, the legitimacy of global legal institutions, and the pursuit of a just world order. By engaging with issues such as territorial conflicts, and the role of legal pluralism, this volume aligns with the broader objectives of SDG16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions), offering a critical lens on how international law can evolve to promote equitable and transparent global governance. With contributions ranging from analysis of historical perspectives to examination of contemporary implications, the edited volume shall be essential for readers interested in international law and scholars established in the research field of international criminal law, international humanitarian law and human rights, fair global order and the evolving role of dissent, inclusivity, cultural and social contextualisation.

General Theory of Law

This book examines the origins, deployment, and legacy of Order 1305, a measure introduced in 1940 to make it a criminal offence to take part in a strike. Surprisingly, the prohibition on the right to strike was retained by the Attlee administration after the Second World War, and was transformed to become a weapon of government during the Cold War to deal with what were wrongly claimed by ministers to be Communist-inspired strikes engineered for subversive purposes. In a deep analysis of Order 1305, the authors provide a reassessment of the role of the State in industrial relations. Challenging much contemporary learning in labour law, the book is informed by a very detailed engagement with Cabinet and ministerial papers, which highlight the contradictions on the part of government in simultaneously promoting and containing trade union power. These sources also highlight the extent to which trade unions both relied on and were co-opted by the State. The main focus of the book, however, is the role of Order 1305 in the control of trade union activists, with the continuing presence of the criminal law and allegations of communist inspired strikes ensuring an important role for MI5 and Special Branch in post-war industrial relations. Material unearthed at the National Archives demonstrates unequivocally not only that trade unions were deeply penetrated, but also that trade union activists were the subject of extensive surveillance, as the authors fully reveal.
