Rule of Law in Times of Change

Contributions to the World Law Congress 2025 in Santo Domingo

Millions of individuals worldwide struggle to understand and assert their legal rights without legal representation. Equalizing Justice examines how AI and other technologies can address this access to justice crisis by providing unrepresented litigants with knowledge and skills traditionally available only through lawyers. This volume takes a needs-first approach, identifying tasks that unrepresented litigants must complete and mapping specific technologies to each task, such as generative AI, computational logic, and document automation. The book highlights real-world applications, demonstrating proven impact, and presents case studies and interviews to explore both the potential positive outcomes and potential challenges of AI for access to justice. Equalizing Justice proves that AI technologies offer unprecedented opportunities to create equitable justice systems serving everyone, not just those who can afford representation. The volume argues for legal AI assistants as a public good that should be accessible to all.

Harnessing AI for Litigants Without Lawyers

Equalizing Justice

Outlines the urgent response needed to address privatization, which has led to dramatic but largely overlooked consequences for human rights.

Governments around the world are privatizing everything, with dramatic but largely ignored negative consequences for human rights. This open access book outlines the response that is urgently needed.

This volume, Climate Change and Children's Rights in Zimbabwe: Toward Social Policy-Based Interventions, provides a comprehensive examination of the intersection between climate change and children's rights in Zimbabwe, one of the world's most climate-vulnerable nations. It brings together diverse perspectives from sociology, law, development studies, anthropology, economics, and environmental sciences to challenge conventional approaches that treat children as passive victims of climate impacts. The book interrogates climate vulnerability through multiple dimensions, from legal frameworks and theoretical foundations to sectoral impacts and innovative adaptation strategies, showcasing transformative pathways for child-centred climate action that recognises children as rights-holders and active agents of change.\
The book outlines critical aspects and issues that must be understood and addressed to protect and advance children's rights in the face of accelerating environmental change. Attention is given to both persistent structural inequalities and innovative opportunities for building resilience through rights-based, gender-transformative, and community-grounded approaches. Through case studies spanning diverse districts, including Lupane, Bikita, Mbire, Chivi, Mashonaland Central, Gutu, Goromonzi, Zvimba, and others, it highlights how climate impacts manifest differently across Zimbabwe's varied ecological and socio-economic landscapes, affecting children's health, education, nutrition, protection, and overall well-being. It provides foundational perspectives into climate justice imperatives, multispecies justice frameworks, legal and policy gaps, and opportunities for transformative social policy that centres children's agency and Indigenous knowledge systems. The book is of interest to researchers, climate justice scholars, child rights advocates, development practitioners, humanitarian organisations, and policymakers committed to implementing more effective, equitable, and contextually appropriate climate responses that place children's rights at the centre of all climate action across Zimbabwe and the broader African continent.

Not so long ago, Russia under Putin appeared to be a corrupt state run by an elite mainly interested in their own privileges and wealth: authoritarian but not fundamentally expansionist. The 2022 invasion of Ukraine made it clear that Putin is driven by far more than simply greed. Putin's Russia is, Andrei Kolesnikov argues, in the grip of intense ideological radicalization, seeking to mobilize its population in support of a form of chauvinistic neo-imperialism using increasingly totalitarian methods. This march towards "hybrid totalitarianism" is driven by a messianic view of Russia as a superior, "spiritual" form of "state-civilization" underpinned by its Orthodox faith and hatred of Western "decadence." Based upon a falsified version of history and a profound hostility to modernization, this ideology is making Russia an international pariah and condemning its citizens to endless war and economic stagnation. The only hope for redemption is a profound moral regeneration which redefines the nation's place in the world and embraces the spirit of democracy. This incisive analysis of the ideological dynamics of late Putinism, written by a leading Russian scholar and journalist, is an indispensable guide to understanding the country's recent descent into war-mongering barbarism.

The Closing of the Russian Mind

Ce manuel universitaire, intitulé ' Cours d'Encyclopédie du Droit : Introduction Générale à l'Étude du Droit ', offre une exploration méthodique des fondations du savoir juridique. L'ouvrage s'adresse spécifiquement aux étudiants en début de cursus, leur fournissant les outils conceptuels nécessaires pour naviguer dans l'ensemble complexe des sciences juridiques, avec une orientation particulière vers les législations belge et française du XIXe siècle.La première partie est dédiée à l'analyse du droit en général et à ses manifestations. L'auteur y établit une distinction philosophique cruciale entre le droit naturel (idéal, universel, fondé sur la raison) et le droit positif (actuel, contingent). L'étude des sources du droit positif est exhaustive, couvrant le droit coutumier - en détaillant les conditions de son existence (uniformité, publicité, tolérance) - et le droit écrit ou légal. Concernant la loi, l'ouvrage explicite sa confection (procédure législative, sanction royale, promulgation, publication), ses effets dans le temps (principe cardinal de la non-rétroactivité des lois, incluant ses exceptions complexes en matière de droits acquis et de capacité des personnes) et dans l'espace (lois politiques, civiles, de police et de sûreté). Une section majeure est consacrée à l'interprétation des lois (authentique, doctrinale, par analogie, a contrario) et à leur application judiciaire, tout en soulignant la séparation des pouvoirs et la rigueur nécessaire pour éviter les abus de la juridiction volontaire.La deuxième partie déploie une classification du droit en quatre domaines principaux. Le droit politique englobe le droit constitutionnel (l'organisation de l'État, la souveraineté nationale, et les droits fondamentaux garantis par la Constitution belge, tels que l'égalité, la liberté individuelle, le droit de propriété et la liberté des cultes), le droit public organique, et un examen détaillé du droit administratif, y compris le droit de police et de finance. L'étude du droit administratif judiciaire est particulièrement riche, décrivant l'organisation, la compétence et la hiérarchie des juridictions (Cour de Cassation, Cours d'Appel, Tribunaux de Première Instance, Juges de Paix, Tribunaux de Commerce, Tribunaux Militaires) ainsi que la procédure civile et criminelle, introduisant le rôle des officiers ministériels (greffiers, avoués, huissiers, avocats) et des institutions de juridiction volontaire (état civil, notariat, conservation des hypothèques).Le droit privé est ensuite disséqué, commençant par le droit civil (issu principalement du Code Napoléon et des ordonnances royales françaises), puis le droit commercial (insistant sur sa nature dérogatoire au droit commun et ses sources comme l'ordonnance de 1673 et les codes modernes). Des chapitres spécifiques sont consacrés aux droits industriel, rural et forestier. Le droit pénal ou répressif est étudié sous l'angle de la philosophie du droit pénal (but de la peine, imputabilité) et du droit positif (crimes, délits, contraventions, peines), avec une perspective historique sur les réformes du XIXe siècle visant à modérer la sévérité des anciens codes. Enfin, le droit international (public et privé) est présenté, traitant des sources (traités), de la diplomatie (exterritorialité des agents) et des principes régissant les rapports privés transnationaux.

Du droit en général, et de ses divers modes de manifestation - Vers une analyse des sources juridiques

Encyclopédie du droit

How can a country industrialise without causing environmental damage? How do development professionals ensure they act in the interests of recipients, rather than their own donor country? And how is the humanitarian project of development complicated by ideological objectives? The fourth edition of this renowned textbook covers the most urgent issues facing the field of development. With the return of Russia as a global actor, renewed conflict in the Middle East, and global inequality exacerbated by climate change and global health crises, the questions underpinning international development are increasingly fraught. For most of its history, international development was shaped by Cold War competition; at the turn of the twenty-first century, the paradigm shifted as China assumed a greater role, and post-9/11 US development initiatives were intended to reduce militancy in the Middle East. As these tensions return to the world stage, it is ever more important for students to ask what development is - or should be - and what it can achieve. With increased attention to gender and postcolonial perspectives and strong coverage of security, economics and global order, this book is essential reading for students of international development.

Understanding China

This book establishes an innovative interdisciplinary research paradigm for studying China's distinctive legal discourse, systematically elucidating the generative logic and global interaction mechanisms of contemporary Chinese legal narratives. Breaking free from the constraints of legal-centrism, the author creatively integrates legal philosophy, critical discourse analysis, and area studies to construct a three-tiered analytical framework of "civilizational foundations-methodological innovation-practical verification," establishing an autonomous paradigm for Chinese legal discourse research.
The work achieves dual academic breakthroughs: First, it constructs a theoretical framework for analyzing contemporary Chinese legal discourse, providing new cognitive schemata for legal discourse studies and global governance scholarship. Second, it pioneers the introduction of philosophy of technology into legal research, demonstrating how digital technologies reshape China's legal trust mechanisms. At the policy level, it proposes the "Four Principles of Legal Discourse Innovation" and a "Communication Efficacy Enhancement Matrix," offering actionable solutions for building a new-era legal system and participating in global rule-making.
With its theory-practice integrated approach, this book caters to both general readers interested in legal civilization and scholars in international relations, legal studies, and global governance by providing an analytical framework that combines academic depth with policy relevance. It holds particular enlightening value for students in related disciplines.
