Making and Amending the Constitution

Hart Studies in Commercial and Financial Law

This book explores the best ways for governments to design venture capital investment incentives. Venture capital is a multi-billion-dollar industry and a major driver of innovation and national growth. Investment in startup companies by venture capital funds helps finance new inventions and create wealth, economic growth, and jobs. However, because venture capital investment is highly risky and sensitive to market downturns, many governments around the world use special legal and tax incentives to help encourage this form of investment. Since the introduction of the first venture capital incentive in the USA in 1958, scores of venture capital incentives have come and gone. These incentives have experienced varied success, with some failing entirely. Filling a gap in an important area, this book employs a legal and regulatory approach to examine venture capital policy from a global perspective. It uses an analytical framework to evaluate the design, implementation, and success of incentives, and looks at over 60 examples from 25 countries around the world. The book is aimed at researchers and policy makers in law, finance and economics, as well as practitioners and investors in the venture capital space. The book introduces the legal aspects of venture capital investment and presents a list of leading practice guidelines and recommendations to help policy makers design effective, efficient, and appropriate venture capital incentives.

Constitutionalism in Latin America and the Caribbean

Constitutional Reasoning in Latin America and the Caribbean

This book focuses on contemporary problems related to fraud and risk in commercial law. It has been said by some that we are in a 'golden age of fraud'. In part this has been caused by globalisation, technological changes and the financialisation of business. This has resulted in the creation of automated linkages with integrated supply chains and the creation of systemic risks, which have been exacerbated by new forms of intangible assets like tokens and their ease of movement. While regulation has ebbed and flowed given the desire of governments to generate economic growth, as well as the distrust of their coercive powers, the courts have sought to strike a balance between considerations such as commercial certainty and fairness. The book provides an analysis of key contemporary issues on the theme of fraud and risk in commercial law, including: technology and fraud, secondary liability and 'failure to prevent' economic crime, abuse of business entities, insolvency and creditor protection, injunctions and other orders, cross-border issues, the relationship between regulation and private law, and solutions for policy makers.

This open access book provides a Mediterranean perspective on digital societies, focusing on core issues such as cultural heritage, tourism, smart city development, migration, humanitarian action management, maritime security, health data sharing, and the Mediterranean data space. The Mediterranean Sea is not just a geographical place; it is a crossroads of cultures, economies, and political trends which are now intertwined with data-driven technologies. Neither a national nor an EU versus non-EU perspective can fully grasp the variety and complexity of the resulting space and legal issues. This book takes a multidisciplinary approach to Mediterranean digital societies by analysing the legal, societal, and technical dimensions of the Mediterranean digital environment, with contributions by scholars and experts in this area. The book is a key resource for scholars who want to better understand these under-explored topics and do so from a Mediterranean, rather than an EU-centric perspective. It also supports policy makers designing their digital strategies - both sectoral and general - in the Mediterranean region, and considering the impact of data-driven technologies on society and their geo-political dimension. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

The Power of Constitutional Rights in Resource Conflicts

Global Competition Law and Economics Policy

This book proposes a wholly new view on digital competition. Digital firms compete to capture parts of the digital network industry. Once they control access points for competition, they get to decide who gets to compete and how. With their superior access to information and users, incumbents become the de facto regulators of their part of the digital network. Regulation that focuses on markets cannot capture these dimensions of power and competition. The system of Progressive Ecosystem Regulation proposed in this book explains how ecosystem competition can be stimulated to create meaningful competitive pressures, open up the network, and introduce real choice for users.

Historically the law of tort has offered limited protection for personal privacy however, since the enactment of the Human Rights Act 1998 this branch of the law of tort has seen rapid development. This book analyses the extent to which the law of tort currently affords protection against invasions of personal privacy and the remedies that are available. The book considers tort law and privacy in other common law jurisdictions including the US, Australia and New Zealand. It then goes on to explore the potential for a common law tort to be developed which would be capable of offering broader protection for personal privacy and its prospects for statutory codification.

Historically the law of tort has offered limited protection for personal privacy using a patchwork of established torts such as private nuisance and battery. Until recently no tort was recognised in English law which was exclusively concerned with protecting what could properly be described as a ‘privacy interest.’ However, since the enactment of the Human Rights Act 1998 which brought about the incorporation into domestic law of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) this is a branch of the law of tort which has seen rapid development, with the judiciary developing a tort of ‘misuse of private information’ which is now capable of preventing and remedying violations of the ‘informational’ aspects of personal privacy. The possibility of introducing a statutory tort of privacy has been considered by a number of review bodies but so far no progress has been made in this area.This book analyses the extent to which the law of tort currently affords protection against invasions of personal privacy and the remedies that are available. The book considers tort law and privacy in other common law jurisdictions including the US, Australia and New Zealand where debates concerning the legal protection of personal privacy are also taking place. It then goes on to explore the potential for a common law tort to be developed which would be capable of offering broader protection for personal privacy and its prospects for statutory codification.

Tort Law and the Protection of Privacy

This book addresses the interplay between the proportionality principle and EU digital law. Does EU digital law provide a fair balance of rights and interests? How does proportionality limit legislation in the digital economy? How can it be used to balance competing rights and interests? Diving into the dialectics of law and technology, the book analyses the relevance of the proportionality principle in regulating the digital world and as a vital tool for balancing competing rights and interests. The chapters analyse how conflicting rights and interests are resolved in EU digital law through the proportionality principle and critically reflect on its application. They scrutinise recent EU regulatory initiatives such as the GDPR, AI Act, Copyright Directive, DSA, and more. They reflect on the unique context of AI systems regulation, digital marketing, and data protection, illuminating the application and impact of proportionality in these arenas. Providing an in-depth examination of legal actors and real-life conflicts resolved by applying EU digital law, the book explains the pivotal role of the principle of proportionality in achieving an optimal balance of rights in our digital era.
