Property Rights: From Magna Carta to the Fourteenth Amendment breaks new ground in our understanding of the genesis of property rights in the United States

Siegan B: Property Rights

Property Rights

From Magna Carta to the Fourteenth Amendment

1: Introduction; 2: The Rights of Englishmen; 3: Interpreting the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; 4: Judicial Interpretations of Property Rights Prior to the Fourteenth Amendment; 5: The Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment; 6: The Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment; 7: Concluding Remarks

Why socially responsible investment promises to make investors richer and the world better—but fails at both. Wall Street thrives by telling investors that clever financial strategies can reverse the trade-off between corporate profits and social progress. But the link between greater corporate social responsibility and improved financial performance is an illusion. Profit vs. Progress dissects the massive $30 trillion “socially responsible” or “sustainable” finance industry—and finds the emperor has no clothes. At best, sustainable investing typically delivers average rates of financial and social returns. But it makes social and environmental crises harder to overcome, by using financial gimmickry to distract our attention from real solutions. Author Brad Swanson argues that corporations in competitive markets act without moral values, and ethical investment can’t prod them to take greater social responsibility. The only way to change the outcome of the game is to change the rules. The solutions will have to come from legislatures, not corporate boardrooms. Swanson calls for public policies to make businesses better serve all of society, not just their shareholders—without blunting their edge. His recommendations include breaking up the cartel of large asset managers, rebuilding the influence of organized labor, curbing the rapacious behavior of the private equity industry, and eliminating the conflict of interest that pits corporate directors against the greater good of the community. The author shows that in previous eras of social crisis caused by corporate excess, meaningful reforms emerged through the political process. Today as well, the path forward is clear—if we have the will to follow it.

Why Socially Responsible Investment Doesn't Work and How to Fix It

Profit vs. Progress

From the author of A People's Guide to Capitalism, a clear-eyed look at cryptocurrencies from the left, cutting through the glitz and the scams to reveal how crypto mirrors and exacerbates the crises of capitalism. 
 
Cryptocurrencies have gone from being fringe investments relevant only to hardcore adherents to a $3.7 trillion industry with a direct line to Donald Trump's White House. The promises of crypto are wide-ranging, preying on a basic reality: people are disaffected by an economic and financial system that has excluded them and wonder if cryptocurrencies can offer a more transparent and inclusive alternative. 
 
Challenge any of these notions, or raise concerns about crypto's associations with money laundering, the speculative bubbles ballooning around these assets, or the disastrous climate implications of the technology behind crypto, and you'll be told by proselytizers that you simply don't understand. That complexity is often intentional, serving as a shield from critical scrutiny. 
 
Enter Crypto-Capitalism, Hadas Thier's deft, accessible examination of the rise and fall and rise again of crypto. Drawing on years of reporting on the industry, its insiders, and the ordinary people impacted by its wild peaks and busts, Thier explains how cryptocurrencies work, elucidates the context and implications of their rise, and debunks the utopian mythology that animates their boosters. 
 
By showing that systemic exploitation and domination are inherent in a crisis-ridden capitalist economy and are matters of class power, not technology, Thier convincingly cuts through the froth and the lies of financial dystopia. Along the way, she opens up alternative avenues for imagining what economic democracy could actually look like.

Contemporary Studies in Corporate Law

This book provides histories of company law, uniting a variety of approaches from law, business and management, economics, and history. What were the origins of company law? How did it begin? Why did it change? There is no single answer to these questions. Each discipline, and sub-discipline, has a different approach and method that brings different facets of study to the fore. This multidisciplinary endeavour is immensely valuable for debates taking place now among policy-makers in the UK and US about returning to historic modes of company regulation. The book brings together Anglo-American scholarship that will not only shed greater light on the history of company law but also influence contemporary debates about our ability to return to, or learn from, the past. Historical research has great value here because it not only generates new insights into the evolution of present legal rules, but also corrects misunderstandings and misapprehensions about them. The book shows how this body of law developed to become the rules with which we are now familiar. It showcases antecedents of present debates, reveals regulatory lessons from previous legal regimes, identifies instances of path dependency, unpicks pivotal legal events, and explains drivers for legal change. The chapters re-evaluate the history of company law, and the knowledge gathered here will inform the law-making and policy-making agenda.

The Principles of Family Business Law offers an accessible approach to legal issues that shape family businesses. Drawing on years of research, the book introduces three principles - intimacy, integration, and inheritance - that explain why family businesses are distinctive and how, with proper guidance, they can thrive. The book examines recurring problems such as role conflicts among family members, succession planning obstacles, and ownership disputes. Vivid case studies illustrate how legal rules interact with family dynamics in practice. Designed for scholars, students, lawyers, and business advisors, the book integrates insights from corporate law, family law, and estate planning, while remaining readable and grounded in real-world concerns. Whether used in the classroom or in practice, it provides essential tools for navigating the complex interplay of law and family business. By supporting the resilience of family businesses, the book affirms the family and community values they help to sustain.

Cambridge Studies on Civil Rights and Civil Liberties

This book reveals how Congress quietly shaped American elections across more than a century of constitutional development. Far from a passive observer, Congress used its authority to influence key controversies - from the expansion of slavery in new territories to the reconstruction of the post-Civil War electorate. Congress exercised power under the Elections Clause, the Guarantee Clause, and later, the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, to combat voter suppression, reimagine representation, and determine who could (and could not) participate in American democracy. Even as Jim Crow laws disenfranchised millions, Congress continued to review and sometimes overturn the elections of its own members, refusing to cede complete control to the states. In doing so, Congress routinely subordinated federalism to politics. In Congress We Trust? provides a new perspective on who truly governs our system of elections by showing that federal authority has been broad, lasting, and decisive.

Willkommen beim Soccer!Die USA sind das einzige Land auf der Welt, in dem Fußball nicht Fußball heißt. Doch auch wenn es immer noch Amerikanerinnen und Amerikaner geben soll, die glauben, der Ball sei eiförmig: Das Land hat eine bunte und erstaunlich lange Fußballtradition. Sie reicht vom Boom der 20er-Jahre an der Ostküste, wo die Profis mehr verdienten als die Schalker, über die Amateure, die 1950 in Brasilien König England aus dem Rennen kickten, bis hin zu den Rekordweltmeisterinnen von heute und der WM 2026. Kuhns Reportagen zeigen: Wenn dem Fußball in den USA jemals etwas im Weg stand, so waren es verfeindete Unternehmer und chaotische Ligenstrukturen – die Leidenschaft ist schon lange da! Und während die Männer zweifellos das Potenzial zur Weltklasse haben, sind die Frauen längst dort angekommen.<ul><li>

WEGE ZU EINER FRIEDLICHEN WELTORDUNG - NICOLE DEITELHOFFS GLÄNZENDE ANALYSE 
 
 Der russische Angriffskrieg gegen die Ukraine ist ein schwerer Schlag für alle Anhänger des Völkerrechts und einer regelbasierten internationalen Ordnung. Gleichzeitig steuern die Großmächte USA und China im Indopazifik auf einen neuen bewaffneten Konflikt zu. Wie kommen wir aus dieser brandgefährlichen Lage langfristig wieder heraus? Höchste Zeit, über neue Formen friedlicher Koexistenz in einer entgrenzten Welt nachzudenken. 
 
 Wie könnte eine Welt "nach dem Krieg" realistischerweise aussehen? Wie lassen sich Staaten mit entgegengesetzten Werten und Interessen, wie lassen sich Demokratien und Autokratien in eine internationale Ordnung integrieren, ohne rücksichtslos nach dem Recht des Stärkeren zu verfahren? Die renommierte Friedens- und Konfliktforscherin Nicole Deitelhoff schlägt in ihrem Debattenbuch einen Bogen von der Geburt der internationalen Ordnung aus der Asche zweier Weltkriege über das Ende der bipolaren Welt bis zur Polykrise der Gegenwart. Ihre kontroverse These lautet: Ein internationaler Flächenbrand kann in der entgrenzten Welt des 21. Jahrhunderts künftig nur verhindert werden, wenn potenzielle Konfliktparteien ihre wirtschaftlichen, aber auch kulturellen und politischen Verflechtungen behutsam ab- und umbauen. Im äußersten Ring sind es schließlich nur noch territoriale Integrität, internationale Souveränität und der Ausschluss von Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit, die Deitelhoffs Ordnungsmodell definieren.

Routledge Library Editions: Soviet Society

An Introduction to the Soviet Legal System (1969) sets the main features of modern Soviet law against their background in Russian legal history and Marxist political thought. Important constitutional provisions are examined in detail and their value in practice considered. In the second part of the book special emphasis is given to those parts of the system most likely to interest the general reader and the non-legal specialist in Soviet affairs. Criminal Procedure and Family Law are considered in detail, as are Trade Unions and the settlement of Labour Disputes. Special features of the Soviet legal system such as the legal position of the State Bank, collective farms and the state-controlled commercial and industrial enterprises are examined. The final chapter is devoted to the work of the Soviet legal profession.
