Rights of Nature in Liberal Legal Systems and International Law

Beyond Legal Anthropocentrism

&lt;p&gt;Introduction.- Part I – The Human-Nature Relationship.- Western Liberal Societies.- Western Liberal and International Law.- Part II – Nature and Intrinsic Legal Relevance.- Concepts of Intrinsic Legal Relevance and their Openness to Nature.- Specifying Nature as a Rights-Holder.- Part III – The Critique and Potentials of Rights of Nature.- Facing Criticism.- Exploring Potentials.- Part IV – Rights of Nature in Practice.- Rights of Nature in Liberal Legal Systems.- Rights of Nature in International Law.- Conclusion.&lt;/p&gt;


This book disentangles the complex processes of democratic transitions where regime change also requires a shift from a command economy to one based on private ownership. The author focuses on the liberalization of Cuba in the 21st century, and how Cuba's economic identity crisis directly affects the daily lives of its citizens.

The Democratization of Cuba

Proposes a regulatory system for ensuring that AI makes fair decisions, based on a detailed analysis of human approaches to decision fairness and how far AI developers can match them.

This book explores the unique nature of the fluidity of law in the continual evolution of society and the development of laws to respond to new life situations. While the fluidity of law frequently fluctuates from one moment to the next, this flexibility enables law to meet and adapt to new standards. Rather, law as a living entity is under constant strain and needs to be firmly grounded in the past as it subsequently adjusts or even swings in new directions to accommodate new possibilities. Its theoretical perspectives, including philosophical and sociological theories, are necessarily situated in relation to this tension-filled system. This book first explores the socio-cultural and legal portrayals of the fluidity of law, then provides legal case studies of this tension-filled system on localized as well as comparative scales. More generally, the book explores legal, social, and cultural avenues to help this system claims its unique identity; i.e., the fluidity of law.

This study enhances microbial and chemical catalyses in bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) by designing and manufacturing new materials, elucidating the catalytic mechanisms, and applying them in wastewater treatment.As a novel environmental biotechnology, BESs can be used for treating wastewater and generating power, producing value-added products, and detoxifying contaminants. However, the catalytic efficiency of the electrode reaction is low these systems.&nbsp;

Advances in Geophysical and Environmental Mechanics and Mathematics

A thematic introduction to the modern theory of continuum mechanics and thermodynamics is presented from the viewpoint of granular and porous materials. In the approach taken here, granular and porous media are treated as continuous macroscopic systems of which the overall response is significantly influenced and determined by microstructural effects. In the continuum mechanical modeling, those microscale effects are captured by the introduction of so-called internal variables which account for geometric and material inhomogeneities or the multiphase nature of granular mixtures. Describing the evolution of such internal variables by additional balance laws, the resulting continuum-thermodynamical system requires careful analysis, including, e.g. the application of the entropy principle of Müller with the corresponding approach of exploitation as suggested by Liu. The book is self-contained and addresses an interdisciplinary audience including civil and geotechnical engineers, physicists, applied mathematicians, soil mechanicians and continuum mechanicians.

This book offers a broad and systematic introduction to the study of miscarriages of justice by defining them and examining the dimensions, forms, and scale of the problem. The work examines the causes in detail with reference to key cases while also exploring official and unofficial responses. The book's discussion of how specific cases and campaigns have acted as drivers for change in relation to policy, practice and legislation aims to minimize future miscarriages of justice. The final chapters of the book apply a comparative approach, comparing the experiences of England and Wales to those of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and France.

Miscarriages of justice and their causes are an endemic part of criminal justice systems the world over. This book offers a broad and systematic introduction to the study of miscarriages of justice by defining them and examining the dimensions, forms, and scale of the problem. The work examines the causes in detail with reference to key cases while also exploring official and unofficial responses. It presents an evaluation of varied perspectives on recognising and rectifying miscarriages of justice, and considers debates concerning Innocence projects, family campaigns and technical fault in the justice process versus innocence as desirable mechanisms for scrutinising justice flaws. The book’s discussion of how specific cases and campaigns have acted as drivers for change in relation to policy, practice and legislation aims to minimize future miscarriages of justice. The final chapters of the book apply a comparative approach, comparing the experiences of England and Wales to those of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and France, thus providing an international perspective on the subject.This book will be an essential reference for students, researchers, practitioners and policy-makers working in the area of criminal justice.

Law and Anthropology

This volume addresses practical concerns of how to create space for legal anthropology in both law and anthropology programmes. Acknowledging that anthropologists and lawyers still often regard one another with a degree of suspicion, the authors try to bridge the apparent epistemological and ontological gulf separating the disciplines. They empathize both the need for law students to go beyond the standard approach to law while stressing the need for anthropologists to have a solid foundation in law, legal practice, and legal procedure. The collection also addresses the issue of preparing anthropologists to apply their expertise in legal settings as expert witnesses and consultants.

This volume addresses practical concerns of how to create space for legal anthropology in both law and anthropology programmes, and also more conceptual issues such as the ethnographic examination of the ‘culture’ of legal institutions and systems of state laws. It is based on testimonies from anthropologists teaching in anthropology departments, and legal scholars incorporating anthropology into their law curricula, and teaching fundamental aspects of legal thinking to anthropology students. Starting from an acknowledgement that anthropologists and lawyers still often regard one another with a degree of suspicion, the authors try to bridge the apparent epistemological and ontological gulf separating the disciplines. They do so by emphasizing both the need for law students to go beyond the standard approach to law based on state-centred positivism and open their eyes to the normative diversity that exists in all plural societies. At the same time, they stress the need for anthropologists to have a solid foundation in law, legal practice, and legal procedure to more effectively deal with a number of explicitly legal issues that are emerging as important concerns to anthropologists. The collection also addresses the issue of preparing anthropologists to apply their expertise in legal settings as expert witnesses and consultants.

The regulation of sovereign debts raises many complex economic and legal questions. The primary objective of this volume is to focus on the possible legal solutions for the challenges facing the insolvent states. Finding a way out of the sovereign debt crisis requires not only economic considerations, but it implies also a better understanding of the rage of different social and ethical aspects associated with this problem.

Comparative Media Law and Ethics

This book considers the derivative action, an important corporate governance tool which is commonly considered to serve two basic functions, i.e., enabling shareholders to gain redress for a wrong done to their company and deterring potential breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties. This book critically examines the derivative action from theoretical, evolutionary, and comparative perspectives. It considers how controversial issues such as locus standi, demand requirements, indemnity cost orders, information asymmetry and res judicata are approached in selected civil law countries as well as throughout the Commonwealth. The book also assesses whether derivative litigation could fulfill a similar role in China, which is one of the most rapidly developing economies in the world, yet lacks adequate corporate governance mechanisms. The ultimate aim discussed in the book is how to establish a remedial mechanism which makes derivative actions more accessible and consistent, while maintainingthe balance between corporate efficiency and protecting minority shareholders’ interests. Lastly, based on different approaches in the latest reforming infrastructure, it explores whether there is a general converging trend for derivative actions between the two major legal systems.
