Global Reflections on Positionality in
Rural Access to Justice Research

Global Reflections on Positionality in Rural Access to Justice Research

Across the Aisle

This balanced book illuminates Republican and Democratic responses and attitudes toward crime, police work, sentencing, incarceration, and rehabilitation in the USA. A broad array of law enforcement and criminal justice issues are examined, including mass incarceration, sentencing disparities, anti-drug efforts, marijuana legalization, death penalty, mandatory minimums, civil asset forfeiture, prison privatization, rape and other crimes in prison settings, women in prison, support for therapeutic/educational programs, sentencing for juvenile offenders, harsher penalties for hate crimes, and voting rights for ex-felons. The focus is on specific and timely topics in criminal justice that are most susceptible to legislative policies. Readers will benefit by developing an appreciation for how politics impacts the criminal justice system, and how the parties have developed laws that impact their lives, dictate acceptable behavior, and legislate appropriate responses for violators. The emphasis of the series is contemporary, but it includes historical perspective to provide a sense of how each party's positions and actions have evolved over time.

Maritime and Transport Law Library

Responsibility Accountability Maritime Law examines the phenomenon of criminalisation which confronts the Master in their professional conduct, both in terms of Flag State and Port State rights and obligations. The fault lines of criminalisation, which go to the heart of the question, demand an understanding of how the concept of criminal justice has evolved to impose accountability on the Master, in circumstances which had not been crimes before.Since this book was first published, the maritime world has changed dramatically, requiring a new understanding of responsibility and accountability before the Master can make rational decisions to respond to the risk of criminalisation. While the basic theory of accountability for criminalisation and the sources of law provide the foundation, this second edition presents a new introduction to summarise the necessity for changes in structure in order to define the pre-existing law with which the Master must comply, acknowledging the re-emergence of risk in the Gulf in 2026, and the foreseeable emergence of risk in the Arctic as geopolitical pressures create uncertainty as to who will assert jurisdictional control in the management of merchant shipping in this region. The Sources of Law chapter has been expanded to address risk management in the context of current geopolitical turmoil, balancing company commitments with the safety of the ship and crew. New content includes detention of Masters and crew, the International Convention on Arrest of Ships, universal jurisdiction, and relevant case studies such as the M/T Heroic Idun.The book's format meets the needs of lawyers, academics and maritime professionals, with the aim of analysing the character of criminalisation to determine the features which characterise the phenomenon in Port and Flag State contexts; it interrogates the aim to define the nature of criminalisation and identifies the constituent problems in such criminal accountability. Each chapter relies heavily on case studies to illustrate how the laws which reflect national policy underpinning those priorities are applied in practice. This structure enables an understanding of the problems in the criminal process, with a view to offering options for solutions.The book is directly relevant to a broad range of parties which includes lawyers, academics, P &amp; I clubs, seafarers, shipowners, managers and agents, and national and international seafaring unions.The current law and cases have been verified up to June 2026.

Building an Antiracist Law School, Legal Academy, and Legal Profession

Antiracist Teaching and Learning equips legal educators to confront structural racism through intentional, practice-ready pedagogy. Developed in collaboration with the Antiracist Development Institute at Penn State Dickinson Law, this timely guide challenges faculty to recognize how legal education can either reinforce or disrupt systemic inequities.Organized into four parts, the book first establishes core platform methodologies for change, including the systems design approach to teaching, critical pedagogy, and reimagined classroom hierarchies. It then offers concrete tools for solo-educator and clinical courses as well as multi-instructor ones, from reflective practice and racial identity development models to critical research instruction and foundational curriculum reform. The final section addresses outcomes, feedback, and how to sustain antiracist commitments in the face of resistance.Accessible and action-oriented, this resource empowers educators to redesign learning outcomes, reshape classroom culture, and take on the important responsibility of preparing future lawyers to dismantle injustice within the legal system.

Sexual Offences in Ireland: Practice and Procedure

Jus Privatum

The German Civil Code (BGB) contains only three general provisions governing the civil brokerage contract (§§ 652-654 BGB), yet these do little to define its contours. This falls short of reflecting the considerable practical importance of brokerage services, particularly in real estate transactions. The result has been undesirable developments in practice. Recent piecemeal legislative interventions, such as the 
 "client pays" principle
 (
 Bestellerprinzip
 ), were intended, among other things, to make housing more affordable, but have had only limited success and have created doctrinal inconsistencies. When speaking of 
 the
 broker or 
 the
 brokerage contract, one overlooks the fact that civil brokers and commercial brokers perform entirely different functions. Yet even the activities of civil brokers are far from homogeneous: online marketplaces, real estate brokers, and insurance brokers differ significantly from one another. Frank Spohnheimer investigates the causes of dysfunctions in brokerage practice and rethinks brokerage law on the basis of existing legal rules. Where necessary and appropriate, he interprets brokerage contracts as atypical agency contracts (
 Geschäftsbesorgungsverträge
 ), which entail a duty of subordination to the principal's interests. On this basis, the study develops a general law of brokerage-related agency contracts and delineates the duties of subordination applicable to the practically most important types of brokers: real estate brokers, insurance brokers, and consumer credit brokers. In doing so, it also provides new impetus for the revival of the commercial broker, a figure that many have already written off as obsolete.

This book explores the fascinating backstories and unexpected sequels of bigamous marriages from the 17th century to the present day. A woman remarries after hearing that her husband has drowned, only for him to turn up alive and well. Is she now a criminal? A deserted husband, unable to afford a divorce, finds happiness in a new union. How many did the same? A conman advertises for a wife and then disappears with her lifesavings; he has already done the same to many other women. How was he brought to justice? These are just a few of the hundreds of bigamous remarriages put under the microscope in Double Lives. As a companion volume to Double Trouble: Bigamy and the Law in England and Wales, 1604-2024, this book goes behind the law reports to reconstruct the stories of those involved. Drawing on archival sources, pamphlets, newspapers, census data, parish registers, divorce petitions and family histories, it shows the different forms that bigamy might take - accidental, consensual, deceptive or exploitative - and how bigamists' stories in turn helped to shape the law. Double Lives shows how bigamy should not be dismissed as a comical or victimless crime. Every case had its own complex mix of desire and deception, and, all too often, heartbreak for someone.

Double Lives

This book is an insightful, thought-provoking study of one of the world's most important courts. There is no doubt that the European Court of Justice has had a transformative effect on EU Law, but not without controversy. 

This book explores these criticisms, asking if concerns over judicial activism, unconventional interpretative methods, conflicts with national courts and over-reach are justified. Drawing on the expertise of leading commentators in their sectors, its ambitious scope explores the question from across the spectrum of EU Law. Its analysis includes the political dimension, giving the fullest understanding of the environment in which the Court and its judgments have operated.

The European Court of Justice and its Critics

For the last thirty years, Eric Francis has covered crime in Vermont, the state with, according to the statistics, the lowest crime rate in the nation. But statistics are statistics and people are people, and Eric, who calls himself the last of the living dinosaurs, is out there day after day reporting on robberies, assaults, car accidents, and the rising tide of drug overdoses due to fentanyl. It's far from quiet in the safest state in the US. Every day brings something new and more often than not strange (in a Vermont way). As recently as six years ago, there would have been other reporters and photographers covering these stories. Now, in the Upper Valley of Vermont and New Hampshire, Eric is the only local journalist on the scene, any scene. This book chronicles the life and times of one of the very last people paying attention to what's really going on in a rural New England that only seems tranquil... Dispatches from individual lives, as they happen: Each short book originates in short confidences recorded by individuals during borrowed moments from their interesting lives. Set amidst some of our most pressing contemporary predicaments and edited by award-winning writers Peter Orner and Laura Lampton Scott, Dispatches captures some of the highs and lows of daily human endurance.
