Power T: The ABCs of Law School Workbook

The ABCs of Law School Workbook

A First-Year Survival Guide

Science fiction has long been fascinated with the potential for sentient, human-like artificial persons. Even before reality meets fantasy, individuals, governments and businesses already entrust AI to make automated decisions with potential for real-life impact. What are the implications for AI legal personhood? This work examines how different legal entities differ in rights and duties and considers historical examples that show how legal personhood status can change over time under economic, social and pragmatic pressures. By abandoning the traditional binary, characteristics-based concept of the legal person for a historical lens, we are left with a more nuanced concept of the legal person against which sentience matters far less than what we might otherwise assume.

Studien zum Regulierungsrecht

This study develops, from the perspective of European law, a concept for the systemic regulation of disinformation on online platforms aimed at safeguarding the integrity of the public opinion-formation process in the European Union. Against the backdrop of disinformation events between 2016 and 2025 and the changing conditions of platform-based communication, it examines - on the basis of the fundamental rights of the European Union, in particular the scope of protection of freedom of expression under Article 11(1) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights - how proportionate disinformation regulation can be designed within the framework of Articles 34 and 35 of the Digital Services Act and implemented, for instance, through a code of conduct pursuant to Article 45.
 

 The study combines a doctrinal legal analysis of freedom of expression with legal-philosophical and legal-sociological perspectives, drawing on emergence theory to explain how individual disinformative expressions transition from the discursive micro-level to the macro-level of public discourse. On this basis, it develops the concept of disinformation dynamics as an operational point of reference for systemic risks within the meaning of the Digital Services Act.
 

 The result is a proposal for a procedural regulatory architecture that, instead of relying on substantive assessments of truth, is based on a rebuttable presumption of disinformation and, where such suspicion is triggered, enables rights-compliant regulatory measures through a discursive reversal of the burden of proof. An interdisciplinary analysis of AI-based algorithmic detection methods - including knowledge-based, style-based, and dissemination-based approaches - demonstrates the technical feasibility of the concept and identifies the requirements for accuracy, fairness, and explainability in automated disinformation detection.
 

 The study thus contributes to the doctrinal development of European platform regulation and outlines ways to safeguard public opinion formation as a foundation of democracy in the digital sphere.

Routledge Handbook on Food Sustainability Law

The history of equity takes in questions of philosophy, theology, jurisprudence and legal history. When we speak of 'equity', do we mean Aristotelian epieikeia, civilian aequitas, a theological or juridical conscience, the common law concept of the 'equity of the statute', or merely the rules applied by the Court of Chancery before 1875? The purpose of this volume is to chart the evolution of equity in English legal history from the medieval period to the present day. Whether by investigating the historical foundations of the modern law, the jurisprudential underpinnings of the equitable jurisdiction, or the socio-political context of discrete legal developments, this collection exposes the strands of thought which 'equity' comprises and the mechanisms by which its rules evolved.

Essays on the History of Equity

Brill | Nijhoff

Outer space has long been considered the last untouched wilderness. However, non-State actors are increasingly active in space, heightening the risk of space pollution. Space law, designed during the Cold War, is State-centric and makes inadequate provision for non-State actors. In the face of this emerging threat, this book examines potential avenues of redress in space law, including the Outer Space Treaty, along with international environmental law, international criminal law, international humanitarian law, and international human rights law. It also reviews the national legislation adopted by space-faring States at the domestic level. In parallel, the book examines the deeper theoretical implications addressing non-State actor conduct under international law. Ultimately, it proposes a ground-breaking new international law instrument to hold non-State actors responsible for space pollution.

Lex Ad Astra

Reservations constitute the principal mechanism by which states may modify or limit the legal effect of treaty obligations following the adoption of a treaty text. Yet they remain among the most complex and contested features of the law of treaties, even for experienced international lawyers. Set against the broader framework of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969), Reservations to Treaties offers a clear, systematic, and practically oriented account of how to identify, interpret, and apply the rules governing reservations.

Drawing on an extensive body of state practice, encompassing more than 150 states and over eighty treaties, the book grounds its analysis in diverse geographical and historical contexts. Through detailed examples and careful engagement with practice, it illustrates how reservations operate across a wide range of subject areas within international law. The chapters provide a structured and accessible guide to navigating this often perplexing area, supported by comprehensive referencing and analysis.

Combining rigorous scholarship with detailed examples, the book is designed to support both specialists and non-specialists in navigating treaty practice, while contributing to a deeper understanding of how reservations shape treaty relations and the development of the international rule of law.

Studies in International Law

This book argues that the pursuit of universal norms remains a worthwhile endeavour for the international legal discipline. It does this while also engaging with the very active imperialist critique of such norms. The study has 4 aims; firstly to illustrate the role that the idea and debate around norms have in developing international law, and secondly to address the philosophical concerns around identifying such norms. It moves on to explore whether a legal/practical instantiation of the universal can be done without taking a particular position/perspective. And finally, it turns to the impact the universal has on the development of international human rights law. Public international law, human rights and legal philosophy scholars will welcome this original theoretical-philosophical perspective on an enduring debate in the field of international law.

International Law and the Pursuit of Universal Norms

Human Rights Law in Perspective

This book offers an analysis of how the European Court of Human Rights engages with identity and emotion, revealing both the promise and the limitations of human rights law in addressing the complexities of human experience. The book explores how human rights law, often framed as universal and abstract, responds to deeply personal questions of identity, belonging, and emotional impact. Based on a systematic study of over 3,300 judgments, the book shows how the European Court of Human Rights has increasingly made identity central to its reasoning - particularly in cases involving sexuality, ethnicity, and family life. In these areas, the Court acknowledges how state actions shape emotions such as fear, humiliation, and dignity. Yet, in other domains - migration, religion, professional life - the Court avoids emotional engagement, leading to troubling inconsistencies. The book argues that when emotions are excluded from legal reasoning, individuals are reduced to formal entities, stripped of depth and interiority. Combining doctrinal analysis with insights from social theory and psychology, the book presents a new framework for understanding how emotions and identity interact with law. It traces the evolution of identity references across categories and highlights the Court's uneven treatment of emotional harm. This timely and original contribution speaks to legal scholars, practitioners, and theorists interested in human rights, identity politics, and the emotional dimensions of law. It calls for a more responsive and empathetic human rights jurisprudence - one that reflects the lived realities of those it seeks to protect.

Family law is constantly evolving as courts, legislatures, and advances in science and technology reshape how families are formed, supported, and protected. Statsky/Beck/Wright's "Family Law," 8th Edition helps you develop an accurate understanding of modern family law and the role you'll play as a paralegal. Explore issues impacting family law, such as no-fault divorce, individual rights and protections, and the impact of science and technology on concepts of parentage. Updates on evolving laws governing assisted reproduction, surrogacy, parentage, domestic violence, and child support enforcement help you connect legal doctrine to the issues shaping family law today.

Modern Studies in European Law

This book clarifies all legal aspects of the good neighbourliness principle in international and EU law. It elaborates on the most acute infringements of the principle of good neighbourliness in both international relations and EU enlargement policy. Taking a two-part approach, it offers the international law and EU law perspectives. Over five chapters, it sets out the legal framework and the practical application of the principle, before setting out conclusions on the effectiveness of that application. Given the current focus on enlargement and accession to the EU this is a timely and topical study in an under-researched field.
