Knowledge Element of Crimes Against Humanity

A Comparative Analysis on the Rome Statute, ICTR Statute and Rwandan Penal Code (Law Nº 68/2018 of 30/08/2018 Determining Offences and Penalties in General)

From the coauthor of Algorithms to Live By, an exploration of the quest to use mathematics to describe the ways we think, from its origins three hundred years ago to the ideas behind modern AI systems and the ways in which they still differ from human minds.Everyone has a basic understanding of how the physical world works. We learn about physics and chemistry in school, letting us explain the world around us in terms of concepts like force, acceleration, and gravity-the Laws of Nature. But we don't have the same fluency with concepts needed to understand the world inside us-the Laws of Thought. While the story of how mathematics has been used to reveal the mysteries of the universe is familiar, the story of how it has been used to study the mind is not.There is no one better to tell that story than Tom Griffiths, the head of Princeton's AI Lab and a renowned expert in the field of cognitive science. In this groundbreaking book, he explains the three major approaches to formalizing thought-rules and symbols, neural networks, and probability and statistics-introducing each idea through the stories of the people behind it. As informed conversations about thought, language, and learning become ever more pressing in the age of AI, The Laws of Thought is an essential read for anyone interested in the future of technology.

Border Studies. Cultures, Spaces, Orders

This book offers readers well-founded insights into current border issues - from historical, cultural and media-theoretical perspectives. It shows how borders today must be understood not only as state lines, but also as complex social and digital processes. The contributions are based on interdisciplinary workshops in Europe and shed light on the complexity of border phenomena: from memory and imagination to materialities and new spatial concepts. The publication is aimed at researchers and those interested in cultural, social and media studies. The editors and authors are internationally active scholars in the field of border studies and related disciplines.

Spatialities, Temporalities and Materialities of Border Complexities

This book explores the historical, comparative and global dimensions of the constitutional phenomenon. From the origins of constitutionalism to the diverse trajectories of North American and European constitutionalism, the book considers pivotal moments in the emergence and evolution of formal Constitutions as the main structure of constitutional governance. It presents a critical inquiry into the realities that lie beneath the surface of formal constitutional documents. From the struggles for democratic governance in Latin America to Asia's delicate balance between tradition and modernity and Africa's post-colonial arrangements, the book poses a critical query: amidst the promises of democratic ideals, do formal Constitutions always translate into effective governance? What are the lessons of 'facade' Constitutions on the tension between formal documents and the realities of governance? The book explores the past and present of constitutional governance in the first quarter of the 21st century and offers insights on the future of constitutionalism. By assessing the normative quality of Constitutions and exploring the intrinsic link between them and representation, it offers an understanding of the essence and trajectories of constitutional thought and practice. The Rise of Constitutionalism is a must-read for anyone fascinated by the enduring legacy and evolving nature of the constitutional phenomenon.

How corporations have increasingly embraced the sharing of knowledge as a competitive strategy Innovation is more important than ever, yet breakthroughs are becoming harder to achieve. Modern technologies, from artificial intelligence and 5G networks to biotech, are so complex that they require collaboration across companies, industries, and countries. Increasingly, firms are discovering that sharing knowledge can be more powerful, and more profitable, than guarding it. In Rethinking Innovation, distinguished economists Josh Lerner and Jean Tirole examine ways that corporations have embraced the sharing of knowledge as a competitive strategy. Open-source software, for example, has seen multibillion-dollar public offerings and shifting business strategies, producing high-profile disputes over what openness actually entails. Across high-tech industries, new forms of knowledge-sharing are transforming how companies develop and exploit new technologies. Lerner and Tirole explore three key organizational structures that make this collaboration possible: patent pools, which bundle essential patents and make them available to firms seeking to license them; standard-setting organizations, where companies agree on common technical templates and commit to making related patents available on fair terms; and open-source communities, in which users share innovations freely with others. Drawing on decades of pioneering research, Lerner and Tirole explain how these institutions emerged, how they work in practice, and how they can both promote innovation and create new challenges for competition and policy. Combining economic insight with vivid case studies—from early efforts to coordinate aircraft patents to contemporary battles over artificial intelligence and global technology standards—Rethinking Innovation reveals how firms collaborate to develop and commercialize complex technologies. Clear and accessible throughout, this book offers a guide to the forces reshaping modern innovation for managers, policymakers, and scholars.

How Knowledge-Sharing Organizations are Shaping the Twenty-First Century

Rethinking Innovation

How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

Two Paths to Prosperity

Bloomsbury Introductions to World Philosophies

What defines a philosophical tradition? The primacy of the written text and individual authorship are two major defining and interwoven credentials that have been used to deny African philosophical thought prior to the postcolonial phase. In this significant contribution to the search for identity and authenticity of African philosophy, Elvis Imafidon questions the relevance of authorship and textuality in the production, storage and transmission of knowledge. Drawing from the rich and robust philosophical heritages of sub-Saharan African traditions, he showcases the many non-textual and textual ways philosophy is collaboratively and intersubjectively done and critiqued. His focus is on two major repositories of philosophical knowledges: orality and symbolism. Storytelling, adages, names and naming, folklores, proverbs and forms of symbolically encoded knowledges found in artefacts, symbols, textile patterns, motifs and corporeal and performative arts contest dominant narratives. They ask us to rethink the logic of binaries between literacy and illiteracy, text and non-text, and speech and writing. Paying close attention to the Binis and Esans in Southern Nigeria, the Akans and Gas in Ghana, the Shonas in Zimbabwe, and the Zulu people in South Africa, Imafidon affirms the place of orality, symbolic art and different indigenous methods for philosophising. Exploring the concept of street philosophy in Nigeria, we see how oral and symbolic forms of philosophizing persist in modern African societies. This much-needed book reclaims the voices, agency and narratives of African thought across history revealing the deeply embedded intersubjective and ecocentric Intellegence, and enigmatics of African philosophy. It challenges our understanding of the discipline of Philosophy and argues for an inclusive definition of philosophy in our trans-human, trans-textual age.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 MOORE PRIZE IN HUMAN RIGHTS WRITING 'Powerful,' Baroness Helena Kennedy KC 'I literally couldn't stop reading it,' John Simpson, BBC World Affairs Editor Putting a country's leader on trial once seemed unthinkable. But with International Criminal Court arrest warrants out for Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu the possibilities of justice have been transformed. In this powerful blend of reportage and history, Steve Crawshaw visits the front lines of justice in Ukraine, Israel/Palestine and at The Hague. He follows the stories of those who have demanded protection for civilians - from the Swiss businessman behind the Geneva Conventions to the Syrian defector exposing Bashar al-Assad's torturers. From Gaza to Bucha, survivors demand justice. But for true accountability, governments must stop applying double standards and support prosecutions no matter the perpetrator. This is a historic moment. Justice is possible - if we have the will to pursue it. 'Eloquently confronts one of the toughest dilemmas of the moment: how to hold war criminals to account' Anne Applebaum, author of Autocracy, Inc 'Important' Luke Harding, The Observer 'Absolutely brilliant,' Nick Cohen

Routledge Research in Finance and Banking Law

Law in a World of Multiple Legal Orders is an accessible introduction to law for students and general readers worldwide. It offers a foundational understanding of what law is and how it operates, while acknowledging that contemporary law is unavoidably cross-border.Starting with the basic idea of law and its relationship with justice, the book introduces the main legal traditions, courts, and constitutions, before moving on to civil procedure and litigation, legal borrowing between systems, international and supranational law - including European law - and the growing role of alternative dispute resolution, such as arbitration and mediation. Conceived as an international introduction to law that also serves as a natural gateway to international law, the book is designed to help students from different legal traditions understand the nature and functions of law, while giving them the conceptual tools needed to engage more deeply with the major fields of law, such as contract law (and the law of obligations more generally), criminal law, administrative law, corporate law, family law, and a multitude of others. It performs the conventional function of an introduction to law, laying the foundations for understanding the role of law and legal institutions in the contemporary world. By offering a modern and accessible introduction to law for the realities of a global and interconnected world, it helps students build a solid understanding of law across legal systems and brings together, in a single volume, what would normally take years to learn.This will be essential reading for introduction to law courses, as well as for courses in international, transnational, and comparative law.
