Jöbstl H: Trials and Penal Sanctions by
Non-State Armed Groups

Trials and Penal Sanctions by Non-State Armed Groups

Between Rough Justice and Rebel Rule of Law

Brill | Nijhoff

Outer space has long been considered the last untouched wilderness. However, non-State actors are increasingly active in space, heightening the risk of space pollution. Space law, designed during the Cold War, is State-centric and makes inadequate provision for non-State actors. In the face of this emerging threat, this book examines potential avenues of redress in space law, including the Outer Space Treaty, along with international environmental law, international criminal law, international humanitarian law, and international human rights law. It also reviews the national legislation adopted by space-faring States at the domestic level. In parallel, the book examines the deeper theoretical implications addressing non-State actor conduct under international law. Ultimately, it proposes a ground-breaking new international law instrument to hold non-State actors responsible for space pollution.

Rethinking the Protective Principle

Extraterritorial Criminal Jurisdiction and International Terrorism

In this book, contributors go in-depth to analyze the 'crime of aggression', 'crimes against humanity' and their applicability in the context of the invasion of Ukraine. The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine brings the principles of Nuremberg to the forefront of discussions on justice, raising questions about the feasibility of Nuremberg-style accountability. The book touches upon the abduction of Ukrainian children and the destruction of Ukrainian cultural heritage. Contributors also discuss the topic of war crime tribunals after Nuremberg, including Timor and former Yugoslavia, as well as tribunals in Rwanda, Sierra Leone, and others leading up to the International Criminal Court (ICC). Including essays by Oleksandra Matviichuk, the Ukrainian Nobel Laureate, and Ambassador Dr. Anton Korynevych, Ukrainian minister and specialist in international law, this book considers the contemporary relevance of the Nuremberg principles in the context of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The Contemporary Challenges to Peace, Security and Justice

Nuremberg Principles and Ukraine

Do animals have legal rights? This pioneering book tells readers everything they need to know about animal rights law. Using straightforward examples from over 30 legal systems from both the civil and common law traditions, and based on a popular course taught by the authors at the University of Cambridge, the book takes the reader from the earliest anti-cruelty laws to modern animal welfare laws, to recent attempts to grant basic rights and personhood to animals. To help readers understand this legal evolution, it explains the ethics, legal theory, and social issues behind animal rights and connected topics such as property, subjecthood, dignity, and human rights. The new edition, fully updated throughout, contains a new chapter on rights of nature. The book's companion website (bloomsbury.pub/animal-rights-law) provides access to briefs on the latest developments in this fast-changing area, and gives readers the tools to investigate their own legal systems with a list of key references to the latest cases, legislation, and jurisdiction-specific bibliographic references. Rich in exercises and study aids, this easy-to-use introduction is a prime resource for law students and for anyone else who wants to understand how animals can be protected by the law.

Asian Yearbook of International Law, Volume 30 (2024)

Hart Studies in Commercial and Financial Law

This book uncovers and reconstructs the growing body of legal principles and rules governing mortgages that have been developed by different transnational institutions and actors. It shows how mortgages have evolved from a type of real security commonly used to facilitate lending by mitigating credit risk, to a transferable commodity with the potential to affect international financial stability and consumer welfare. In doing so, the book reveals the emergence of new policy objectives and rationales for regulation that have led to changes in the structure and functions of mortgage laws. Characterising this development as a type of transnational law, the book highlights the paradigm shifts in the law of residential mortgages brought about by their increasing global relevance. The analysis reveals tensions between the goals of risk mitigation, financial stability, consumer protection and housing justice. The result is an innovative analysis at the intersection of contract law, property law and international financial regulation. The book portrays transnational mortgage law as a complex field governed by a plurality of socially and economically relevant but potentially conflicting goals and principles.

The Right to Strike Reimagined

This book demonstrates how legal knowledge is a vital, empowering tool in human rights education. Despite the centrality of international human rights law to the global rights framework, its role in human rights education (HRE) - particularly in schools and community settings - has been sidelined, dismissed as either too technical or too politically problematic. This book challenges that marginalisation head-on. It examines how legal knowledge is framed, valued, or rejected in the theory and practice of HRE, engaging critically with the prevailing trends in the field: one that gestures toward law but avoids depth, and another that disavows law entirely in favour of culturally embedded alternatives. Through a close reading of scholarship and policy, combined with insights from educational theory and socio-legal studies, the book argues for law's role as a form of "powerful knowledge" in HRE. It contends that access to and understanding of legal norms and mechanisms are not only essential for meaningful rights education but are themselves enabling rights in practice. The book will be of interest to scholars and students of human rights, legal pedagogy, and education policy, as well as practitioners developing HRE programs. It offers a timely, nuanced intervention into a field grappling with deep epistemological and political tensions, and reasserts the value of law in the struggle for rights.

Studies in Private International Law - Asia

This book is the leading reference on Thai private international law in English. The chapters systematically cover the whole of Thai private international law including commercial matters, family law, succession, electronic commerce, intellectual property, competition (antitrust), and environmental disputes.

In addition to covering the traditional conflict of law areas of jurisdiction, applicable law (choice of law) and enforcement, the chapters also look into conflict of laws questions arising in arbitration and assess Thailand's involvement in the harmonisation of private international law globally and regionally.

Similarly to the other volumes in the Studies in Private International Law - Asia series, this book presents the Thai conflict of laws through a combination of common and civil law analytical techniques and perspectives, providing readers worldwide with a more profound and comprehensive understanding of the subject.

This book examines the interaction between Islam and private international law in Asia. The analysis distinguishes between Muslim-majority and non-Muslim jurisdictions. Among the former, a further distinction can be drawn between Muslim-majority jurisdictions where Islamic law continues to exert a strong influence on both substantive and procedural law (including Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Brunei), and those where the law has been largely secularized (such as Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan). Among the latter, non-Muslim jurisdictions can likewise be divided into two groups: those with a significant Muslim minority, often granted a certain degree of judicial or legal autonomy (such as India, the Philippines, and Thailand); and those where Muslims constitute only a small minority and where no special legal or judicial framework exists (including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China). In Muslim-majority jurisdictions, the main question concerns the influence of Islamic law on the private international law treatment of cross-border cases. In non-Muslim jurisdictions, the main question concerns the acceptance of foreign law based on or influenced by Islamic law or judgments rendered in application of such laws. The chapters put the question of the interrelation between Islam and private international law in its broader theoretical context, examining the differences and similarities between the various approaches and proposing suggestions that bridge the gap between sometimes opposing approaches. The book sheds light on the multifaceted interrelation between Islam and private international law in Asia from both a theoretical and practical angle. It offers a unique perspective in which cultural and religious diversity meets private international law. This invaluable book provides judges, practitioners, decision-makers, and scholars with a practical guide and an indispensable reference to understanding this complex issue within the Asian context.
