Great Debates in Public Law

A riveting account of how the US criminal legal system punishes millions without conviction--asking us to rethink the freedoms we give up for the illusion of safety.Every encounter with the criminal legal system, from a traffic stop to a day in jail, carries a human cost. This cost rests on a fragile bargain at the heart of our democracy: we give the government power in exchange for protection. But how much of our liberty are we willing to surrender for the promise of safety? In Collateral Damage, attorneys Justin and Zach Brooks take readers on a devastating tour through the criminal legal system, exposing the real-life trade-offs of this false promise. Blending gripping personal stories with legal analysis, they trace the long arc of America's struggle between fear and freedom--from the Red Scare and Japanese American internment to the evolution of criminal procedure, civil forfeiture, and today's extrajudicial killings, offering pragmatic reforms along the way. The result is an eye-opening portrait of a system that punishes millions without ever sending them to prison and a powerful warning to rethink whether the balance we've struck truly reflects the values we claim to hold.

Sacrificing Liberty for Safety in Our Criminal Legal System

Collateral Damage

Cornerstone on...

Inquests and inquiries form a distinct area of law in which the aim of the tribunal is to discover what happened, rather than who is right, wrong, or at fault. Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries provides an accessible, go-to guide to this area of practice, useful for both practitioners and parties involved. It looks at the field as a whole, acknowledging the commonalities between inquests and public inquiries, and providing a practical approach to each. The book also covers the field of parliamentary inquiries.

This book offers a guide to tree preservation mechanisms for policy makers and researchers concerned with preserving canopy or boosting green infrastructure on private urban land in Australia. It discusses the available mechanisms in Australia (both direct and indirect) and refers to relevant literature on each mechanism, including research on the effectiveness of each mechanism, as well as addressing applicable case law.
Although written from a predominantly legal perspective, this book is designed to assist non-lawyers to better understand the available tree protection mechanisms and how they work (or not) to achieve increased canopy cover, green space or other urban forest improvements on private land.

In addition to the print version, each precedent is available via an accompanying website in a format which can be easily downloaded and edited.

Commentary on specific considerations for the US is also provided. In addition to precedent commentaries, the book also contains detailed commentary and discussion of legal issues common to the life sciences, biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, as well as links to relevant materials (eg regulatory materials on clinical trials).

What is tradition in American constitutional law, and what is its enduring appeal in American culture? In The Constitution of Practice, Marc O. DeGirolami presents and defends his theory of constitutional law, one rooted in our political, legal, and cultural experience. He argues that constitutional traditions are the ways in which we manifest, give concrete form to, and transmit political excellence across time. He explains how traditions also bind us to one another, strengthening the civic affection necessary to a democratic republic. Responding to several criticisms, the author discusses the relationship of constitutional method and American politics, evaluating traditionalism's political adhesion and its prospects in the coming decades. At a time when Americans increasingly do not trust their institutions, DeGirolami explores how a traditionalist approach to the Constitution can begin to repair the disaffection that many now feel for their legal institutions.

How to Build an End to End Business Continuity Program

Bestselling author and award-winning investigative journalist Sandy Tolan exposes the bitter history behind the powerful, secretive sugar industry, and the Fanjuls, the Succession-like family who owns Domino Sugar and profits from it the most.For well over a century—going back to the slave trade in Cuba and into modern-day South Florida—deep-pocketed sugar barons have accumulated billions of dollars in wealth, while their cane cutters remain trapped in an endless cycle of what can only be described as modern-day feudalism. Considered lucky if they can earn more than four dollars a day, their offshore workers become deeply indebted for seeking medical care and are often forced to live out their lives in the fields they tend, lacking the proper paperwork needed to travel freely.Of the families that have profited the most from the historically brutal sugar industry, none is more prosperous or notorious than the Fanjul family—owners of Domino Sugar and Florida Crystals, and recipients of hundreds of millions of dollars from the U.S. government “sugar program.” Their epic family history begins in a village in northern Spain before blazing a path of environmental destruction and social upheaval, through revolution in Cuba, exile and resettlement in sparkling Palm Beach, and acquisition of more than 400,000 acres of sugarcane, from the Everglades to the Dominican Republic. Along the way, through millions of dollars in campaign contributions and lobbying to both parties, their influence stretches all the way to the White House.In Bittersweet Empire, Sandy Tolan draws on more than five years of on-the-ground reporting—which caused the U.S. to block the import of sugar from the Fanjul family’s operations in the Dominican Republic. For the first time, he spins the tale of a 160-year family dynasty and juxtaposes their vast wealth, built upon mountains of sweet, tempting crystals that cause major health issues, with the stark reality wrought upon the communities in which they do business.Eye-opening and meticulously reported, Bittersweet Empire shines a light on the most influential family you’ve never heard of, giving a critical voice to those whose stories have been silenced across generations.

Billionaire Sugar Barons and the Ghosts of Slavery

Bittersweet Empire

This book brings together leading experts on the United Kingdom's constitutional arrangements to show how the constitution works, the role played by actors, and the scope for reform. The experts are practitioners from the fields of law and politics, and include former judges, ministers and law officers, parliamentarians, a law commissioner, barristers, a former clerk of the House of Commons, Lord Speaker, First Minister of Wales, and the Prime Minster of New Zealand. Each contributor has been, or is, a constitutional actor and their chapter draws upon this unique first-hand experience. In addition to contributions on the UK Constitution, there are three comparative chapters that explore constitutional reform in Jamaica, and the constitutions of Denmark and New Zealand. The chapters explore issues and themes such as devolution, protecting standards in public life, breaches of political trust and the role of the law, House of Lords reform, the role of the law officers, the role of the Law Commission, the Supreme Court as a Constitutional Court, and the experiences of those working in Parliament. Constitutional Actors in the UK Constitution will be of interest to those working in politics, the law, or the civil service, academics who teach and research in politics or law, postgraduate and undergraduate students, and members of the public looking to learn more about the constitution.
