Because We Cannot Stop for Death

Cambridge Studies in Law and Society

In this compelling book, Margaret L. Boittin delves into the complex world of prostitution in China and how it shapes the lives of those involved in it. Through in-depth fieldwork, Boittin provides a fascinating case study of the role of law in everyday life and its impact on female sex workers, street-level police officers, and frontline public health officials. The book offers a unique perspective on the dynamics between society and the state, revealing how the laws that govern sex work affect those on the frontlines. With clear and accessible prose, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in law, state-society relations, China, and sex work.

The Regulation of Prostitution in China

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.

Criminalisation of the Ship’s Master

Responsibility and Accountability in Maritime Law

This book presents a critical, in-depth analysis of the changes taking place in the governance of charities and charity law in Australia, New Zealand, and England. Delving into the transformative journey of charity law, the book reveals its dramatic shift from traditional private law regulation, governed by the courts and trust law, to an advanced, regulatory framework. This pivot is not just a legal transition; it reflects the core tension within charity itself - the balancing act between private initiative and public good. Featuring contributions from both renowned and up-and-coming international charity law scholars, this book stands out for its comprehensive coverage. Each chapter delves into the nuanced, complex issues arising from the modernisation of charity law, providing a rich, insightful exploration of the concept of 'charity' as it straddles the realms of legal theory and state-regulated practice.

Private Purpose, Public Benefit, and the Regulatory Strategy

Charity Law and Governance

This groundbreaking book explores the dynamic intersections between religion as a cultural-theological construct and intellectual property as the legal framework governing creativity and innovation. Featuring contributions from over 30 leading scholars, the book examines how IP law regulates religious subject matter-sacred symbols, texts, music-and how religious traditions shape and are shaped by contemporary issues in IP law. From Islamic perspectives on trademark law to Jewish analyses of copyright and Confucian views on IP law, the book provides a multicultural lens on the interplay between faith, law, and commerce. A critical resource for IP scholars, ethnographers, theologians, and policymakers, this book offers fresh insights into the global and interdisciplinary dimensions of intellectual property, enriching both academic discourse and practice.

The Law of Property

International Studies in the Theory of Private Law

This book examines the English and German version of the numerus clausus principle which holds that there is a closed list of permitted property rights. It challenges recent views that the principle renders property law inflexible and unable to accommodate social and economic changes. Relying on a novel approach combining property theory and comparative research of English and German law, it argues that the restrictions the principle imposes on the creation of new property types actually does accommodate social changes through a process of 'functional transformation' of the existing property rights. This is a fascinating, unique study, that makes a rigorous, original contribution to property law theory.

A Comparative Approach to the Principle of Numerus Clausus

Stability and Change in Modern Property Law

Sharing economy promised a way of using property for the mutual benefit of owners and consumers, but in the last decade it has only worked to profit large commercial platforms. This book shows how institutions of risk management are part of this problem and offers a solution: collaborative risk structures. The book uncovers risk as the missing element in accounts of property theory and sharing economy. Drawing on diverse insights from economic theory and legal studies, it explains how property and private law form a risk management infrastructure which reinforces private property, and examines the paralysing effects this has on sharing, by constraining it to extractive market relations and stifling its collaborative potential. The book argues that overcoming these constraints is key to realising collaborative property and curbing the drawbacks of private ownership. It proposes institutional design principles and offers heuristic solutions such as radical uses of private law tools and insurance mechanisms to build a collaborative risk system capable of supporting more equitable and diversified forms of sharing.

Risk in the Sharing Economy

Company law, as a specialised branch of business law, is uniquely shaped by contemporary challenges that often redefine traditional legal concepts. Historically, the study of company law has been approached through the lens of individual legal systems rather than a broader, comparative perspective. Addressing this gap, this advanced textbook offers a comprehensive comparative analysis of common law and civil law traditions.The book focuses on the interplay between the UK legal system and the European Union's legal framework through the analysis of some EU states' legal systems. It examines company law in common law jurisdictions, particularly England and Wales, alongside Scotland, while integrating the latest legislative developments within some states of the EU, for instance, Italy and Germany. Through this comparative lens, the textbook explores pressing contemporary issues, such as the pursuit of sustainability and the green agenda, and technological evolution, in particular, AI, analysing their impact on the foundational principles of company law.Marking the 20th anniversary of the passing of the Companies Act 2006, Comparative Company Law serves as a bridge between common law and civil law, combining tradition with innovation. It provides a nuanced exploration of how modern challenges, ranging from sustainability to human rights, reshape the structure of company law, making it an essential resource for advanced students and scholars.

The Global Clinical Movement: Educating Lawyers for Social Justice, Second Edition brings together leading educators from around the world to examine how clinical legal education is reshaping legal training globally. Edited by Frank S. Bloch and Ulrich Stege, this volume explores how experiential learning and a focus on lawyers' ethical and public responsibilities have become central to a growing movement for socially relevant legal education across diverse legal systems.

Structured in three parts, the book surveys regional clinical programs (Part I), highlights how clinical methodologies advance justice (Part II), and assesses the movement's evolving role in preparing lawyers to meet the demands of a more equitable and responsible legal profession (Part III).

This book is essential reading for legal educators, practitioners, judges, policymakers, and anyone concerned with the future of legal education and the legal profession's commitment to ethical practice and public service. It offers both a comprehensive overview and a compelling call to action for those invested in training the next generation of lawyers to serve justice in a global context.

This open access book offers a unique perspective on the return of cultural objects by considering the aftermath of the handover processes. While calls for the repatriation of heritage have been made since the start of the decolonisation process, it is only in recent years that the debate on returning cultural objects has gained widespread prominence. This has been followed by ongoing efforts from several countries to change the legislation, adopt principles, and invest in provenance research to turn repatriation into a more proactive mechanism. The book tells the story of cultural objects that were housed in European institutions and returned to countries in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. In addition to in-depth analysis of relevant laws and policies, each of the case studies integrates interviews with those who were directly involved in those return processes, as well as those who were impacted by them, including museum staff, government representatives and community members. The book presents previously unheard insights into past return processes, the manifold modalities that such processes have followed, and, at times, unexpected outcomes. By doing so, it offers possible lessons to be learnt for future returns. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Leverhulme Trust.

Exploring the Stories of Cultural Objects After their Return

Beyond Restitution

This book investigates measures to increase diversity in the legal profession of England and Wales and the impact of equality law on what has been done, focussing on how law enables organisations lawfully to take positive or affirmative action. The book combines a qualitative interview study of lawyers, legal regulators, recruitment consultants and other civil society actors, with analysis of developments in the legal profession, in equality law and in understanding of the role of law in society. The evidence paints a puzzling picture of the law on positive action being both very little known and seen as limiting what employers do to advance equality, much as significant positive action has been taken anyway, at least in this section of the legal profession. The glimpse into legal practice revealed complex attitudes, persistent barriers to fundamental change, and, in hindsight, that the larger forces driving inequality mean that liberalizing positive action laws was never likely to make much difference. This case study therefore cautions against overestimating equality law's power to deliver change while putting forward strategies for enhancing its effectiveness. At the broadest level, the book argues for frank acknowledgment of law's limitations, a stronger focus on understanding how legal interventions function in practice before deploying them, and for the full implications of law's limits to be traced through in politics and society. The urgent need is for renewed effort to discover and build other mechanisms for addressing inequality and the many other major challenges we currently face.
