Disruptions and Transitions

Law in a Technological Context

Tradd Street Press

"Legal Foundations of Capitalism" is a cornerstone of institutional economics that examines the historical and judicial structures underlying modern economic systems. Written by the influential economist John R. Commons, this work offers a profound analysis of how legal concepts-specifically regarding property, value, and sovereignty-have evolved to facilitate the development of the capitalist order.The text explores the transition from a feudal conception of tangible property to the modern definition of incorporeal and intangible assets. Commons meticulously details the role of the state and the judiciary in defining the boundaries of the market, arguing that economic activity is inseparable from the legal framework that governs it. By investigating the concept of the "going concern" and the shifting nature of transactions, the book provides a comprehensive look at how collective action and legal decisions shape economic life.This work is essential for scholars and students of economic history, political science, and the philosophy of law. It remains a vital resource for understanding the complex interplay between legal institutions and the development of the marketplace, highlighting the social and political foundations of economic power and exchange.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Oñati International Series in Law and Society

In this book, law and society researchers reflect on past, new, and emerging participatory action research (PAR). In particular, the book explores two key dimensions of community-engaged law and society research: the process, methods, and challenges of collaborative research on justice, and innovative dissemination techniques of co-created knowledge, including theatre, art, museum exhibits, walking tours, music, and web platforms. The book highlights different strengths and features of PAR research, with chapters that cover a wide range of locales. More specifically, the chapters explore the following key questions: -How does knowledge-building about the meanings and mechanisms of justice emerge and form within law and society scholarship? -How can we, as researchers, build space for public conversations about justice? -How do colonialism, sexism and racism impact these conversations? -What do meaningful partnership and collaboration look like in law and society, and how does this work take shape, recognizing these structures of inequality? -How can we better, with more impact, share research with/in communities, and what opportunities are there for knowledge sharing to create space for conversations about justice? The book delves into research projects and innovative methods that do novel work in charting out new methods and, consequently, builds new knowledge in socio-legal justice scholarship. It speaks to diverse range of researchers, research subjects, and research priorities.

Communities of Practice in Law and Society Research

Just Methods

Americans take it for granted that the states of the union make up an economic common market. But that is the case only because early in the nation's history the Supreme Court ruled that the Commerce Clause of the Constitution establishes a principle--sometimes called the "dormant Commerce Clause" principle--that blocks individual states from cutting off the free flow of cross-border trade. From the 1820s onward the Court has issued hundreds of rulings applying this doctrine to prevent the states from imposing tariff-like taxes, local processing requirements, and other restrictions on the free movement of goods and services across state lines. The result for the nation has been, as Justice Robert Jackson once observed, a "material success that . . . has been the most impressive in the history of commerce." After joining the Court in 1986 Justice Antonin Scalia challenged the dormant Commerce Clause principle as an illegitimate judicial innovation at odds with a proper "originalist" interpretation of the Constitution. This critique, moreover, quickly picked up steam as other prominent jurists and commentators--most notably, Justice Clarence Thomas--gave it their enthusiastic support. Is the originalist challenge to the dormant Commerce Clause rule well-founded? In The Common-Market Constitution, Coenen argues that the answer is no. Like Justice Scalia, Coenen focuses on discovering the original public meaning of the Commerce Clause. According to Coenen, however, the text and history of that clause compel a conclusion that is the direct opposite of the one that Justice Scalia reached. As Coenen demonstrates, a proper originalist assessment of the dormant Commerce Clause principle requires consideration of a sweeping body of text- and history-based evidence that ranges far beyond what critics of that principal rule have focused on in the past. A full and fair appraisal of that evidence, Coenen argues, leaves no doubt that the constitutional rule that the Court has long applied to safeguard the American common market does reflect the original public meaning of the Commerce Clause.

How to Find & Understand the Law

Legal Research

This edited collection explores the disruptive effects of technology on law: in particular, the challenge presented to regulators as they strive to manage the transition from one technological state to another (such as the transition from analogue to digital or from fossil fuels to green renewables) and the opportunities (and challenges) presented as regulators transition from traditional rule-based legal governance to governance that relies on new technologies and tools. It brings together nine papers, eight of which were published in the journal Law, Innovation and Technology (between 2009 and 2022) and the ninth of which was a TELOS conference paper that was given at King's College London in 2023.These papers are presented in three sets, each set reflecting a particular theme for discussion within the broad field of law, regulation, and technology. The organising ideas are: law in context; 'law in context' becoming 'law in a technological context'; disruptive technologies and their impact on law; the regulatory challenge presented by technological transition; and the challenges and opportunities presented by a transition in the mode of governance, from rules to tools.Timely and forward-looking, this collection makes important inroads into broadening the field of legal study by placing law not simply in context but in, what is now, a technological context.

EDINBURGH STUDIES IN LAW Series Editor: Elspeth Christie Reid Volume 11 The Consequences of Possession Edited by Eric Descheemaeker Compares the law of possession across the divide between the civilian tradition and the common law The theme of this edited volume is the consequences that the law attaches to the recognition of a possessory relationship between a person and a thing in a comparative perspective. The comparative law of property is a budding, but still extremely underdeveloped, field of study; yet its importance is self-evident in an age of Europeanisation of law and legal scholarship. Bringing together contributions of scholars from the civilian tradition (France, Germany, Italy), the common-law world (England) and mixed legal systems (Quebec, Scotland, South Africa), The Consequences of Possession focuses on the protection of possession across the divide between the two great western legal traditions. Eric Descheemaeker is Lecturer in European Private Law at the University of Edinburgh. Among his previous publications are The Division of Wrongs: A Historical Comparative Study (2009) and Iniuria and the Common Law (edited with Helen Scott, 2013).

The first coherent analysis of the topic of possession from a comparative and historical legal perspective. The volume comprises contributions from some very distinguished scholars from the civilian tradition (Germany, Italy) as well as the common law (England) and mixed legal systems (Quebec, Scotland, South Africa).

The Consequences of Possession

¿Qué ocurre cuando la justicia escucha... pero no sabe interpretar? Testigo en el Estrado es un recorrido por diez de los juicios más mediáticos y polémicos donde el testimonio -más allá de las pruebas materiales- fue determinante para decidir la verdad jurídica.

Un análisis profundo y accesible sobre la credibilidad del testimonio, el papel del perito psicológico y los errores judiciales más frecuentes. El autor, Jorge Sanmiguel Peña, psicólogo forense con amplia trayectoria, ofrece una mirada rigurosa y humanista sobre el peritaje testimonial, combinando casos reales, metodología profesional y reflexión ética. Descubrirás: Cómo se analiza la veracidad de un testimonio en juicio. Cuándo la conducta no verbal puede ser engañosa. Por qué el perito forense es clave en la valoración de la prueba testifical. Los errores más comunes que llevan a condenar a inocentes (o absolver a culpables). Lecciones para estudiantes, peritos, abogados y todos los interesados en justicia y verdad. Un libro imprescindible para profesionales del Derecho, la Psicología Forense, estudiantes y cualquier lector interesado en la cara más humana (y vulnerable) de la justicia. "La palabra puede salvar o condenar. Pero solo si se escucha con ciencia y humanidad puede acercarnos a la verdad."
