Mitchell P: Gaskell and the Law

Gaskell and the Law

Addressing Agency Costs Through Monitoring and Corporate Litigation

Short-Termism and Shareholder Engagement

This book traces the legal creation of National Parks in England and Wales, considering how statute and case law shaped the different provisions within the National Park and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. National parks are often associated with hiking, holidaying, and nature but they are rarely perceived as legal spaces. Yet national parks in England and Wales only exist through the legal processes contained within the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, a piece of legislation which is internationally unique in how it defines what a national park is. In celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, the book examines the legally unique nature of national parks in England and Wales, exploring why these spaces were created in a legally distinct way. In doing so, the book takes the reader on a journey through the ever-evolving landscapes of planning law, administrative law, and property law in the 19th and 20th centuries, providing a new perspective on the enactment of national parks legislation. In presenting the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949 as part of a wider system of legal change, the book encourages the reader to think differently about national parks, emphasising the inherently legal nature of these spaces. This book is the perfect companion for any reader seeking to understand how national parks in England and Wales legally came to be.

The U.S. Constitution is silent about a right to privacy, yet the Supreme Court determined in the 1965 reproductive rights case Griswold v. Connecticut, that such a right is inferred from the Bill of Rights. The reasoning in the landmark case hinged on an unexpected word – penumbra. The Court concluded, in other words, that the unmentioned right to privacy resides in the shadows of the amendments.But this was not the first time penumbral imagery was used in legal writings, and its broader cultural usage dates back much further. Jared Schroeder's The Penumbra Problem provides a much-needed – and quite colorful – social and cultural history of the term. The penumbra concept, it turns out, wasn't an accidental choice but instead a well-selected term with centuries of transnational history.Schroeder tells its story through two intertwining narratives: first, how the word penumbra transcended its oblique scientific origins to become a distinct cultural concept; and, second, the parallel story of its evolving use in legal thought. The book tracks back and forth in time, creating an unexpected lineage of people and works who became unwitting champions of the penumbra concept, including mathematician Johannes Kepler, feminist activist Estelle Griswold, British thinker Robert Hooke, and lexicographer Noah Webster. Pairing these stories with the writings of great legal thinkers such as Willam Douglas and Oliver Wendell Holmes, Schroeder is able to construct a kind of etymological love letter to this obscure concept.Not everyone has supported the privacy precedent, though, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is in danger today. Schroeder's clever, utterly unique history is, at its core, a call to redouble efforts to save the right to privacy. He argues that we must understand its ponderous, indeed uncertain, origins to fully appreciate the precarity in which it exists today, and only then can we adequately fight for it.

The Rise and Fall of the Little-Known Word That Protects Our Privacy

The Penumbra Problem

The untold stories behind New Zealand's tax system through the analysis of the critical junctures in the development of New Zealand tax law and policy. From the 1912 Waihi mining strike to modern asset-stripping rules, from century-old gambling taxes to decades-long debates over the taxation of capital gains, this book reveals the fascinating threads that weave through New Zealand's tax history. Bringing together the insights of judges, policymakers, administrators, and practitioners who have shaped the system, along with inputs from tax academics, this book offers both intimate personal accounts and authoritative outside perspectives on how taxation evolved in Aotearoa and what other countries can learn from it. Why has New Zealand debated a comprehensive capital gains tax for nearly sixty years without implementing one? How did public-private cooperation forge unique policy solutions? How has New Zealand both inspired international tax developments and boldly charted its own course, often diverging from the OECD's tax guidance? These questions and many more are answered through rigorous analysis and compelling storytelling. Whether you are a tax professional, a policy analyst, a tax scholar, a student, or simply curious about the history of taxation, this collection offers invaluable insights into one of the world's most competitive, and yet cohesively consultative, tax systems.
