Chinese Maritime Cases Series

China (the Mainland of PRC) trades with other states in trillions of USD every year, and about 95% of the cargoes are carried by ocean-going ships calling at hundreds of Chinese ports each singe day. Due to the enormous trade volume and shipping activities, foreign ships, companies and professionals are often caught in the Chinese maritime law and court. The foreign parties involved in Chinese litigation or dispute resolution and their lawyers are more and more enthusiastic to study Chinese maritime cases in order to deal with their own cases properly or, if possible, predicate the potential risks and avoid the disputes outright. However, to date, no Chinese series casebook has ever been published. Now, for the first time, the authors offer this series casebook of delicately selected Chinese maritime judgments. Each year, the book selects a number of leading, innovative and influential Chinese maritime judgments and presents full English translation of them, together with summary, to the readers so that they can have insights of how the Chinese maritime judges interpret, apply and develop Chinese maritime law in practice. The book will benefit the worldwide students, academics, practitioners and industrial people who may be engaged in international trade, shipping, insurance and other transactions concerning China. The book will also indemnify to certain extent the situation that there is lack of authoritative sources available to foreign personnel to look into how Chinese justice system functions and grows in real life.

Digital Rule of Law

Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

This open access book employs a rigorous legal analysis that combines national perspectives with a broader examination of EU-level regulation. Online disinformation is one of the most pressing issues in terms of understanding the kind of society in which we live and aspire to live. It threatens democratic systems by influencing voters’ electoral choices. At the same time, it poses significant challenges to the foundational principles of the rule of law, since it is widely considered to require remedies that depart substantially from traditional legal frameworks.
 
 In the current geopolitical context, the European Union and its member states are at the forefront of addressing these issues and testing solutions. This book offers readers an extensive overview of European achievements and shortcomings to date. Contributions from eminent European scholars specialized in disinformation and digital constitutionalism cover the regulatory frameworks of eighteen legal systems throughout the EU.
 
 The authors employ a rigorous legal analysis that combines national perspectives with a broader examination of EU-level regulation. Particular attention is paid to the tension between freedom of expression – a cornerstone of democratic regimes – and the rapid technological transformations that are reshaping contemporary society. Issues such as the limits of regulatory intervention, the role of digital platforms, and the evolution of constitutional principles are discussed throughout these chapters. In addition to mapping existing frameworks, the authors explore anticipated challenges and prospective solutions for the near future.
 
 Conceived as a contribution to the body of scholarship on digital constitutionalism and media law, this book will appeal to researchers and scholars of European law, democratic theory, and information governance.

Civil Justice Systems

This book explores the complex landscape of costs and funding of civil justice. Access to civil justice continues to be undermined by State retrenchment of legal aid budgets, increases in procedural costs, the complexity of court procedures, and severe delays in the dispensation of justice. This has resulted in a shift from public to private funding of civil litigation, and the emergence of new business models and forms of private justice. The book explores the dynamic landscape of legal costs and financing from 3 perspectives: regulatory frameworks in public and private funding; new trends and challenges in contemporary legal financing; and the transformative potential of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and online dispute resolution (ODR) procedures to streamline civil justice processes and expand access to justice. By addressing the intersectionality of legal, economic, political, market and social dynamics, the book helps readers gain a better understanding of the inherent complexity of costs, funding, and their implications for access to justice. This timely resource offers academics, policymakers, and practitioners valuable insights into the dynamics that shape the current state and future prospects of civil justice in Europe to help create sustainable pathways for improved access to justice.

New Approaches to Business, Human Rights and the Environment

This book critically explores the intersection of corporate activities, regulatory frameworks, and environmental social governance (ESG) issues across key industries, primarily in the Global South.With an emphasis on both environmental and social justice, the book examines how corporate actions impact local communities, ecosystems, and labor standards, and it assesses the effectiveness of ESG principles in mitigating these impacts. Through a series of in-depth case studies spanning Brazil, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Morocco, Mexico, Kenya, Thailand, and Latin America it seeks to contribute a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted challenges of implementing and enforcing ESG standards in contexts often marked by regulatory gaps, economic pressures, and socio-political complexities. Focusing on these countries is imperative because they represent diverse regulatory environments and high-impact industries where ESG issues are particularly urgent.By linking legal analysis with socio-environmental case studies, the book bridges the gap between policy intentions and on-the-ground realities, offering actionable insights for policymakers, academics, and practitioners involved in ESG, environmental law, and sustainable development. In doing so, it contributes to a growing dialogue on equitable governance and sustainable corporate practices, aiming to inspire collaborative, cross-sectoral solutions that enhance justice and sustainability in the Global South.

This book provides a systematic review of the content of children’s rights protection in the international legal system and focuses on analysing China’s compliance as a party to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

China Arbitration Yearbook (2024)

Framing the global “Whistleblowers’ Revolution” as a vital response to democratic malaise, this volume examines the socio-legal dynamics surrounding the exposure of illegal or unethical practices in both the public and private sectors. The analysis covers innovative legal frameworks and protective regimes across multiple jurisdictions while also closing the divide between theory and practice. The volume brings together contributions from distinguished scholars and practitioners alongside firsthand accounts from whistleblowers, resulting in a holistic approach that evaluates existing and prospective measures aimed at empowering truth-tellers and confronting entrenched cultures of silence.
The volume is structured to connect theory with lived experience. It moves from a transnational socio-legal analysis of global conditions (Part 1) to critical jurisdiction-based assessments across multiple countries (Part 2). The work then culminates in a series of firsthand narratives (Part 3), offered by insiders whose accounts reveal the significance, personal costs, and institutional consequences tied to speaking truth to power.

Whistleblowers: Voices of Justice

Gender, Sexuality and Law is a punchy, interdisciplinary collection that speaks to one of the most debated themes of recent years and frames gender and sexuality as pivotal levers for human development. Authored by Global South scholars across law, political science, history, sociology and international relations, it brings evidence and argument from outside the usual North Atlantic axis and foregrounds how rights are claimed, contested and institutionalised in diverse legal–political settings.
 
 Grounded in rights based theory and empirical research, the volume spans Argentina, Bangladesh, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Uganda, and Uruguay, and offers high salience case studies on sexual and reproductive rights litigation, adolescent pregnancy and public policy, women as architects of feminist peace in Colombia, the transnational spread of “gender ideology” discourse, reproductive rights gaps in Nigeria’s DDR programme on Transitional Justice, state shaped trajectories of LGBT rights in Brazil, Uganda and Uruguay, the gender stereotypes in criminal courts in Brazil and the role of technology in fostering gender inequality in the job market.
 
 By connecting courtrooms, policy design and lived realities across three continents, the book resonates directly with the UN Sustainable Development Goals—health and SRHR, education and comprehensive sexuality education, gender equality, reduced inequalities, and peace, justice and strong institutions—while offering an indispensable Global South perspective for scholars, practitioners and policy makers. Its scope, originality and policy relevance position it as a conversation shaping book with clear adoption potential across Gender &amp; Law, Human Rights, International Criminal Law, Transitional Justice, Law &amp; Society, Development Studies and Global South Studies.
