A Law and Policy Perspective

Springer Studies in Law & Geoeconomics

The Law and Geoeconomics of Investment Screening

Palgrave Studies on Sentencing

This edited collection provides an international collection of essays addressing the most important challenge confronting courts in all jurisdictions, common and civil law: how can we restrict the use of imprisonment to avoid unnecessary human and fiscal costs? Different court systems have devised a range of approaches but few have worked. This book represents multiple jurisdictions including both civil and common law countries and includes chapters from legal scholars, philosophers and empirical researchers. This book has broad appeal, given the widespread&nbsp;interest in the use of&nbsp;custody, and the pressing need to reduce prison costs.Jakub Drápal

Different court systems have devised a range of approaches but few have worked. This book&nbsp;represents no fewer than 12 jurisdictions&nbsp;including both civil and common law countries and includes chapters from legal scholars and philosophers and empirical researchers. This book speaks widely, given the interest in the use of custod, and the pressing need to reduce prison costs.

International Perspectives on Structuring and Restricting the Use of Imprisonment

Who Goes to Prison?

This book, as a monograph devoted to the concept of right, takes as its vantage point the historical transformation of human society from agricultural civilization to commercial–industrial civilization. It traces the formation and evolution of the concept of right, analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the right‑related thought of three major Western jurisprudential traditions and their representative figures, repudiates the intellectual constraints that existing Western notions of right have imposed upon the Chinese legal academy, and develops a theoretical system of right supported by such core concepts as the constitution of right, the ontological foundation of right, the bearer of right, the function of right, and the semantic transformation of right.

On Right

A textbook that examines how societies reach decisions about the use and allocation of economic resources While economic research emphasizes the importance of governmental institutions for growth and progress, conventional public policy textbooks tend to focus on macroeconomic policies and on tax-and-spend decisions. Markets, State, and People stresses the basics of welfare economics and the interplay between individual and collective choices. It fills a gap by showing how economic theory relates to current policy questions, with a look at incentives, institutions, and efficiency. How should resources in society be allocated for the most economically efficient outcomes, and how does this sit with society's sense of fairness? Diane Coyle illustrates the ways economic ideas are the product of their historical context, and how events in turn shape economic thought. She includes many real-world examples of policies, both good and bad. Readers will learn that there are no panaceas for policy problems, but there is a practical set of theories and empirical findings that can help policymakers navigate dilemmas and trade-offs. The decisions faced by officials or politicians are never easy, but economic insights can clarify the choices to be made and the evidence that informs those choices. Coyle covers issues such as digital markets and competition policy, environmental policy, regulatory assessments, public-private partnerships, nudge policies, universal basic income, and much more. Markets, State, and People offers a new way of approaching public economics. <ul><li>A focus on markets and institutions </li><li>Policy ideas in historical context </li><li>Real-world examples </li><li>How economic theory helps policymakers tackle dilemmas and choices </li></ul>

Economics for Public Policy

Markets, State, and People

In many parts of the world, 100-degree days are already common. In the Indian subcontinent, temperatures can become so high that concrete in the cities buckles. In Morocco, hotter and longer droughts threaten crops and livestock, possibly wiping out the livelihood of millions. The lives of the world's poorest are already harder, hotter, and shorter thanks to emissions that disproportionately come from the world's richest. But just as the rich world's emissions are finally falling, poorer countries' are set to increase drastically. We seem to be caught in an impossible bind-but it's not too late.Renowned economists Abhijit V. Banerjee and Esther Duflo (co-recipients of the 2019 Nobel Prize), and Michael Greenstone propose a radical new approach to combating climate change and the devastation that is already causing the most serious global crisis of our time. Substantial progress is possible if the wealthiest countries compensate the poorer countries for the harms that their emissions cause and, in exchange, poorer countries commit to climate action. Based on meticulous original research, years of fieldwork around the world, and deep engagement with world leaders and climate negotiators, Banerjee, Duflo, and Greenstone dive deeply into the specifics to show how this grand bargain would work to curtail emissions and address the suffering of the world's neediest.This paradigm-shifting and inspiring book reassures us that we can successfully confront the challenge. We can protect the poor while protecting our future. It's just economics.

A Better Deal for People and Planet

Just Economics

This book defines the substance over form doctrine in Tax Law and sets clear limits on its application within the Brazilian Constitutional Tax System. Grounded in Brazilian constitutional principles and illustrated with case examples, the analysis develops a general framework that is extensible to other liberal democracies, testing the doctrine’s compatibility with constitutional principles while delineating boundaries for legitimate use. Drawing on a paradigmatic case from Brazilian Tax Law, Chapter One offers a precise definition of the substance over form argument and examines each component to distinguish it from accounting based approaches to taxation, debates on the relationship between Tax Law and Private Law, the defeasibility of tax rules, the rejection of qualification nominalism, and the principle of material truth; it also maps points of contact with interpretations of “form” as requirements for the existence or validity of legal transactions or as essential elements of those transactions, and presents multiple examples of the doctrine’s use in Brazilian Tax Law. Chapter Two critically refutes three common justifications for the prevalence of substance over form in Brazil—broad notions of simulation, the principle of contributive capacity, and economic substance—and then analyzes eight constitutional principles that favor a priori formal qualification criteria in tax matters: the rule of law, democracy, separation of powers, legality, legal certainty, human dignity, freedom, and equality. Chapter Three outlines practical limits on substance over form arguments by identifying preference rules for resolving conflicts among qualification criteria for facts, acts, and legal transactions in Brazilian Tax Law—whether in “form versus form” or “form versus substance” structures—thus providing a rigorous, constitutionally grounded roadmap for courts, tax authorities, and practitioners focused on Brazilian Tax Law, the Constitutional Tax System, economic substance, formal qualification, and legal certainty. Chapter Four compares the definition and criteria for applying the substance-over-form argument, as established in light of examples from Brazilian Tax Law, with key cases of this argument’s application in other countries. The aim is to outline, even if only preliminarily, the limits of the applicability of the theses presented in this work to other legal systems.

Form and Substance in Tax Law

This monograph offers a comprehensive contextual analysis of Maine's Ancient Law, emphasising the author's use of various sources to construct the book's key themes. Ancient Law was written as a sophisticated piece of rhetorical prose grounded in Maine's education in the classics. Central to this analysis is the significant role of Roman law in shaping the narrative, particularly its influence on Maine's arguments and conclusions. The monograph also positions Maine's work within the broader intellectual debates of the nineteenth century, especially concerning the teaching of English law and Britain's colonial presence in India. By situating Maine's Ancient Law within this larger context, the study enhances our understanding of the text, revealing the historical legal framework that resonates in modern legal discourse and thought. This connection enriches our knowledge of Maine's contributions and highlights the enduring relevance of his ideas.

System und Grundlagen des deutschen Rechts

This book offers a groundbreaking perspective on the use of documentary evidence in legal proceedings.
 
 In its first part, the book presents a critical overview of the current state of legal scholarship and jurisprudence concerning documentary evidence. It argues that, particularly in civil law jurisdictions, the law often rests on two flawed assumptions: that documents are sensory equivalents and that they are objective, with self-evident meaning that requires no interpretation or intersubjective validation. The result, in the author's view, is a legal culture that treats documentary evidence as a kind of objective "gold standard," obscuring the subjectivity and interpretive work that actually goes into creating and evaluating such evidence.
 
 The second part draws on general epistemology and semiotics to challenge these assumptions. It explores the role of context, the differences between human testimony and machine-generated evidence, and the need for comprehensive evidentiary sets. Through a semiotic lens, it examines various types of signs and the processes of representation and interpretation that underlie each type of documentary evidence.
 
 Building on these theoretical foundations, the third part proposes a new framework for understanding documentary evidence. It emphasizes the need for understanding the “physiological” functioning of each type of document and considers factors such as the nature of the sign, potential pathological or physiological alterations, and whether the source is human or mechanical.
 
 Finally, offers both theoretical insights and practical recommendations for all actors involved in the admission, production, and evaluation of documentary evidence—judges, lawyers, prosecutors, and others—providing tools for a more critical, contextual, and accurate approach to legal proof.

Documentary Evidence

Schriften zum Strafrechtsvergleich

Seit vielen Jahrzehnten zählt Ingeborg Puppe zu den bekanntesten Persönlichkeiten der deutschen und internationalen Strafrechtswissenschaft. Ihr methodenkritischer, an der analytischen Philosophie geschulter Denkstil hat Generationen von wissenschaftlich interessierten Strafrechtswissenschaftlerinnen und Strafrechtswissenschaftlern inspiriert, belehrt und herausgefordert. Im vorliegenden Band werden einige der Kernthemen von Puppe kritisch beleuchtet: wissenschaftstheoretische Grundfragen, Probleme des Allgemeinen Teils und auch des Besonderen Teils des Strafrechts. Immer wieder zeigt sich, dass Puppes Analysen oft ihrer Zeit voraus waren und ihr nüchtern-rationaler Problemzugriff, ungetrübt von strafrechtswissenschaftlichen Moden, dem Wandel der Zeit standgehalten hat. Ihr Werk bildet deshalb ein hervorragendes Beispiel für eine Strafrechtswissenschaft, die nicht den jeweils tagesaktuellen Fragestellungen hinterherläuft, sondern Grundlagenprobleme in einer Weise thematisiert, die auch nachfolgenden Wissenschaftlergenerationen Orientierung geben können.
