A Memoir

Fearless and Free

Longlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction A Book of the Year in The Times, TLS and Prospect The definitive history of Britain's tumultuous relationship with Europe - as it's never been told before. 'Thought-provoking' - The Sunday Times 'Mesmerising' - LRB 'A great big entertaining sweep of a book' - The Guardian 'Excellent' - The Telegraph 'Rich and incisive' - The Economist 'Powerful, precise, morally engaged' - Rory Stewart 'The authoritative political history' - David Kynaston 'Sweeping and ambitious' - Helen Lewis In this lively history, acclaimed writer Tom McTague chronicles the battle of ideas, events and personalities that first took the country into the Common Market in 1973, only to take it out of the European Union in an explosive referendum a little over forty years later. A riveting story of the clashing ideals that have pulled at Britain's public imagination for more than seven decades, Between the Waves illuminates the conflicts between leading twentieth century politicians and the lesser-known actors in this great post-war drama: the Eurosceptic student radicals, Cold Warriors, eccentric billionaires and political strategists who turned the tide of history. Ultimately, this book raises that most elemental of questions: who are we?

The Hidden History of a Very British Revolution 1945-2016

Between the Waves

This book offers a comprehensive legal examination of the proportionality of sanctions for doping in sports. Doping violates the level playing field and the spirit of sport and devastates athletes' health. While punishing those who violate anti-doping rules is essential, the battle against doping should not become a relentless pursuit without redemption. This book offers an innovative look into the proportionality of sanctions for doping, calling for a balanced approach that is both strong and fair. This book examines the World Anti-Doping Code in force from 2027 and changes compared to its predecessors. Some sanctions can be considered proportionate, but some may be excessively harsh. This book delves into the critical areas where punishment might overstep the bounds of proportionality. It analyses cases where sanctions may permanently end athletes' careers or ignore circumstances surrounding their cases. This book answers one important question: Could a more compassionate approach lead to a cleaner and more humane sport? The book proposes modifications to the current system. By aligning sanctions with the goals of clean sport and allowing room for reform, anti-doping organisations can build a fairer sporting world where second chances are not a forbidden dream.

Fair Play, Fair Punishment

Proportionality of Sanctions for Doping in Sport

Asylum Law and Practice

Examines whether the rule of law can endure without its natural law and metaphysical foundations, arguing for a renewed, human-centered legal order grounded in objective moral principles and capable of addressing contemporary challenges such as AI, technocracy, and decolonization.
This provocative interdisciplinary volume addresses a mounting global crisis: the erosion of the rule of law in an increasingly secular and technological world. As societies move into what the authors call the "fourth era" of legal history, the rule of law is frequently reduced to a mere "toolkit" for elites or a "checklist" for bureaucratic efficiency, stripped of its deeper moral and transcendent roots. The book explores a vital question: can legal systems remain just when they are "truncated of transcendence" and disconnected from a higher moral order? By sifting through the legacies of legal giants like Lon Fuller and theologians like Karl Barth, the contributors argue that a purely procedural "inner morality" is insufficient to protect human dignity against authoritarian relapses or the cold logic of "technocratisation." 
Central to the book's unique vision is a multivalent, pluralistic re-envisioning of global norms. Drawing on the Christian philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd, specifically his concept of "sphere sovereignty," the authors propose a framework where diverse religious and secular traditions can collaborate without sacrificing their distinct identities. This approach offers a powerful way to decolonize the rule of law, moving away from "one-size-fits-all" Western impositions toward a culturally sensitive synthesis of universal principles and local traditions. 
The text also tackles the controversial relationship between Natural Law and the 10 Commandments, debating whether positive laws should be grounded in "naturally knowable" truths or specific religious revelations in a pluralistic state. 
Looking toward the future, the authors issue a stark warning against the rise of Generative AI (GenAI) in legal adjudication. They argue that replacing human value judgments with machine-driven algorithms threatens to eliminate the discretion and relational interaction essential to true justice. To counter this, the book calls for educational reform and a shift toward "principled legal education" that prioritizes ethics, restorative justice, and a "facts first" approach. Ultimately, this work is a call to action for legal professionals, theologians, and the public to reclaim law as a framework for human flourishing-a "language of love" between the divine and the human that protects the vulnerable from the arbitrary exercise of power.

Reclaiming Justice Through Natural Law

The Rule of Law, Human Dignity and the Future of Democracy

Gender Perspectives in Law

The book underscores the importance of integrating a gender perspective into judicial systems worldwide, revealing how gender sensitivity enhances the legitimacy, equity, and efficacy of the judicial process.
The judiciary serves as a cornerstone of democratic societies, upholding principles of fairness, equality, and justice for all. Yet, the effectiveness of the judiciary can be compromised when it fails to reflect and respond to the diverse experiences and needs of those it serves. A gender perspective within the judiciary addresses this challenge by recognizing that laws and judicial decisions impact individuals differently based on gender, and by working to counteract systemic biases that may disadvantage certain groups. The integration of a gender perspective in the judiciary is essential to fostering an equitable, inclusive, and representative justice system. While judicial institutions uphold the principles of fairness and impartiality, they also operate within broader societal frameworks where gender dynamics and biases play significant roles. Across national jurisdictions and international judicial bodies, gender representation in the judiciary remains imbalanced, with women often underrepresented, particularly in higher courts and leadership roles. This disparity reflects and reinforces traditional power structures, limiting the judiciary’s capacity to address the unique experiences and legal needs of all members of society. By incorporating a gender perspective, judicial systems worldwide can better respond to gender-based inequalities and ensure that their practices, policies, and decisions reflect the diverse realities of those they serve.
Incorporating a gender perspective within the judiciary supports a more equitable legal system that honors the experiences and rights of all individuals. By improving women’s representation at all levels, facilitating career advancement, and promoting gender-sensitive practices, judicial institutions can better fulfill their mandate of delivering impartial and fair justice. In both national and international contexts, a judiciary that values gender diversity and awareness is better positioned to address the nuances of gender in the law and to uphold the principles of justice in a way that truly reflects and serves society as a whole.

The Gender and the Judiciary

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 MOORE PRIZE IN HUMAN RIGHTS WRITING 'Prosecuting The Powerful isn't just compelling and very moving, it has all the force of a well-crafted thriller. I literally couldn't stop reading it,' John Simpson, BBC World Affairs Editor 'A compelling account of a revolutionary moment in history,' Philippe Sands, The Spectator 'Powerful, timely and moving,' Baroness Helena Kennedy KC 'A tour de force,' Lindsey Hilsum, International Editor, Channel 4 News 'Absolutely brilliant,' Nick Cohen Could we ever see Vladimir Putin in the dock for his crimes? What about a Western ally like Benjamin Netanyahu? Putting a country's leader on trial once seemed unimaginable. But as Steve Crawshaw describes in Prosecuting the Powerful - a blend of powerful eyewitness reporting and gripping history - the possibilities of justice have been transformed. Crawshaw includes recent stories from the front lines of justice in Ukraine, Israel/Palestine and at The Hague, as well as his earlier encounters with war criminals like Slobodan Miloševi¿. He tells the stories of those who have demanded protection for civilians and accountability for war criminals - from the Geneva Conventions to the Syrian police photographer who helped put one of Bashar al-Assad's torturers behind bars. He also follows the extraordinary unfolding story of two of the world's most powerful and well-connected leaders currently under indictment at the International Criminal Court in The Hague: Putin and Netanyahu. For all the current darkness, this is a historic opportunity. The scales of justice can and must be balanced. Now is the moment.

Prosecuting the Powerful: War Crimes and the Battle for Justice

A mother and son, estranged for many years, reckon at last with the secret that has kept them apart in this highly anticipated novel by one of the most talented American writers of his generation At forty, Peter, an asylum lawyer in New York City, is overworked and isolated. He spends his days immersed in the struggles of immigrants only to return to an empty apartment and occasional hook-ups with a man who wants more than Peter can give. But when the asylum case of a young gay man pierces Peter's numbness, the event that he has avoided for twenty years returns to haunt him. Ann, his mother, who runs a women's retreat centre she founded after leaving his father, is wounded by the estrangement from Peter but cherishes the world she has built. She long ago banished from her mind the decision that divided her from her son. But as Peter's case plunges him further into the fraught memory of his first love and the night of violence that changed his life forever, he and his mother must confront the secret that tore them apart. With unsurpassed emotional depth, Mothers and Sons reveals all that is lost by looking away from the past and the love that might be restored by facing it. In his spellbinding new novel, Adam Haslett demonstrates yet again his mastery of "a rich assortment of literary gifts" (New York Times). 'Subtle, symphonic and satisfying' Financial Times 'An epic family saga that packs an extraordinary emotional punch . . . this book is his best yet' Observer

Something Lost, Something Gained

Law for Professionals

This book explores how law can safeguard the marine environment in the era of deep-sea mining.In our increasingly interconnected and resource-intensive world, the demand for mineral resources has reached unprecedented levels. Rapid industrialization, technological advancements, and a growing global population have intensified our reliance on minerals: for electronics, renewable energy systems, infrastructure, and manufacturing.This escalating demand has pushed humanity to explore new frontiers, with the deep sea emerging as a potential reservoir of untapped resources. As terrestrial deposits become harder to access, the allure of deep-sea minerals grows ever more compelling.Yet, with opportunity comes responsibility. Balancing economic interests with the preservation of fragile and largely unexplored deep-sea ecosystems requires robust and enforceable legal frameworks. Since the adoption of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea in 1982, international law has sought to govern ocean resources while protecting the environment.This book offers a meticulous examination of these legal frameworks, environmental considerations, and the governance of deep-sea mineral exploration. It provides a comprehensive foundation in ocean law, covering the intricacies of international regulations, state rights, regulatory challenges, and also addressing social dimensions and human rights considerations.

Beyond the Gavel: A Paradigm Shift in Global Criminal Justice

How should the Arctic be viewed in the 21st century? In this book, a leading commentator assesses the competing players for the Arctic, looking at broad questions of governance and security. The author challenges the view that the Arctic is a passive space which is the focus of competitive advances from superpowers, arguing that it is more correctly understood as a dynamic pluriverse. Drawing on international law, international relations and diplomacy, this is an important re-assessment of the Arctic and its position in geo-politics.
