Cybercrime and Digital Forensics

Are milk and dairy products still fit for the 21st century? As concerns about animal welfare, climate change and human health reshape our food systems, milk has become one of the most contested staples on our tables. In M*lk, Orla Shortall investigates the dairy dilemma by exploring the hidden realities of how milk is produced today. Travelling between farms across Britain, Ireland, Europe and North America, she meets dairy farmers and their cows, examining the challenges facing contemporary dairy farming, the rise of veganism and plant-based alternatives, and emerging ideas about how humans and cattle might coexist differently. Combining sharp wit with compassionate reporting and rigorous research, Shortall invites readers to reconsider their own relationship with dairy, and to ask what a more sustainable and ethical future for milk might look like.

The history of equity takes in questions of philosophy, theology, jurisprudence and legal history. When we speak of 'equity', do we mean Aristotelian epieikeia, civilian aequitas, a theological or juridical conscience, the common law concept of the 'equity of the statute', or merely the rules applied by the Court of Chancery before 1875? The purpose of this volume is to chart the evolution of equity in English legal history from the medieval period to the present day. Whether by investigating the historical foundations of the modern law, the jurisprudential underpinnings of the equitable jurisdiction, or the socio-political context of discrete legal developments, this collection exposes the strands of thought which 'equity' comprises and the mechanisms by which its rules evolved.

Essays on the History of Equity

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.

A free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. This wide-ranging intellectual and media history traces China's emergence as a modern state in which boundaries blur between art and design, education and psychological conditioning. Tracking the parallel development of set design and social engineering from the 1920s to the 1960s, Background Matters examines the concept of huanjing (environment), a neologism introduced at the turn of the twentieth century that evoked heated intellectual debates and inspired frenzied aesthetic experimentation. Weihong Bao shows how efforts to reshape the mind consolidated the idea and art of environment by advancing a new theoretical notion of set design: both as aesthetic organization across film, theater, radio, and television and as social experimentation in worldmaking across geopolitical and transnational contexts. Inventive and breathtaking in scope, this book radically rethinks environment not as an external object but as the nexus of mind, medium, and society.

Background Matters: Volume 9

This book traces the legal creation of National Parks in England and Wales, considering how statute and case law shaped the different provisions within the National Park and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. National parks are often associated with hiking, holidaying, and nature but they are rarely perceived as legal spaces. Yet national parks in England and Wales only exist through the legal processes contained within the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, a piece of legislation which is internationally unique in how it defines what a national park is. In celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949, the book examines the legally unique nature of national parks in England and Wales, exploring why these spaces were created in a legally distinct way. In doing so, the book takes the reader on a journey through the ever-evolving landscapes of planning law, administrative law, and property law in the 19th and 20th centuries, providing a new perspective on the enactment of national parks legislation. In presenting the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949 as part of a wider system of legal change, the book encourages the reader to think differently about national parks, emphasising the inherently legal nature of these spaces. This book is the perfect companion for any reader seeking to understand how national parks in England and Wales legally came to be.

Human Rights Law in Perspective

Proportionality Under the UK Human Rights Act

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.

Landmark Cases

This book presents the landmark cases in company law which have shaped and defined the field and is written by leading experts in the field.

Part of the market-leading Landmark Cases series, this book brings together leading experts in company law to analyse the the landmark cases in company law which have shaped and defined the field. Drawing on a range of diverse methods and a multi-disciplinary orientation, the book explains the past, present, and future of company law as well as its shape, structure, and trajectory. Company law is now understood to be a creature of statute law. The Companies Act of 2006 is a monumental piece of legislative work. Cases, however, played a central role in creating, establishing, and influencing legal ideas that were later enshrined within pieces of legislation. To identify the landmark cases in company law, the book develops an original, democratic, and objective method. It undertakes a citation analysis of cases used by 5 leading English company law textbooks. Highly cited cases are widely understood to be central to the company law curriculum. Once these cases have been identified, they are examined by leading scholars in company law. The analysis that follows sheds some much needed light on how, why, and when historic rules came into being. This contextual analysis is missing from the original law reports as well as the legislation that we see in operation today. It follows that these novel accounts of the roots of company law push beyond a simplistic narration of the case and proffer a new explanation for why legal rules took the shape that they did. Other archaeological studies also provide a fresh account of the case. Such an excavation informs the reader about legal advisors or the parties in the suit to explain why the litigation arose in this particular way, manner, or form.

The Law of Economic Regulation provides a detailed analysis of the law specific to economic regulation and the practice of that law. This book is unique in dealing with the key elements of economic regulation - such as rule-setting, regulatory investigations and disputes, enforcement and appeals on a cross-sector basis, offering a resource to practitioners in each sector who currently have few efficient options to see how other sectors deal with a specific issue. As the number of regimes, and their jurisprudence, continues to grow, the legal issues arising have increased in importance. Whilst the focus of this book is on UK sector regimes, it uses other comparisons where relevant, including UK and EU competition law, and sectoral regimes in other jurisdictions from the EU, USA and beyond, where that best illustrates a particular point. It answers questions, such as: - What rules apply to major regulated companies? - How do the rules vary between regulated sectors? - What is the point of economic regulation? - How do regulators make decisions? - Can decisions by regulators be challenged, and if so, how? With contributions from leading specialists in their areas, this title is essential reading for all legal practitioners specialising in regulation, competition law, energy law, telecommunications law, environmental law and transport law. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Practice and Procedure Law online service.
