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.

A Sentimentalist Analysis of Human Rights

Identity and Emotions at the European Court of Human Rights

Contemporary Chinese Civil and Commercial Law

This book examines the political role of Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) under Xi Jinping’s latest round of reforms and how this shapes their investment activities abroad. Focusing on investment in advanced economies, with Australia as a central case study, it explores how closer alignment between SOEs and state policy affects foreign direct investment and raises challenges for host countries balancing economic interests with national security concerns.

The analysis draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Chinese laws, regulations, policy documents, and Chinese Communist Party (CCP) rules. Given that many of these materials are difficult to access and interpret, the book provides clear explanations based on close reading and contextual understanding of China’s political and economic system.

It also includes original data presented in tables and figures, covering topics such as the direction of SOE reforms, links between state policy and overseas investment, and the operation of Australia’s foreign investment review framework. The book further considers how existing legal tools, both domestic and international, can respond to the risks associated with politically connected investment.
The core argument is that recent reforms have strengthened political control over SOEs, with implications for how they operate internationally. This has practical consequences for governments and businesses engaging with Chinese firms, particularly in sensitive sectors.

Overall, the book provides a grounded and evidence-based account of contemporary Chinese SOEs and their global role, offering useful insights for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners working on international investment, economic security, and China’s political economy.

Routledge International Handbooks

This unprecedentedly expansive international collection of empirical and theoretical material explores the nascent field of criminology and affect. Affect theory first arose as an analytical framework to conceptualize and understand dynamic emotional relationships between individuals and the social environment. Despite the tremendous potential utility for affect theory to assist criminologists with conceptualizing crime and justice, affect remains underutilized in criminological research. Uniting research from otherwise geographically and culturally disparate locales under affect's analytical umbrella presents a unique opportunity to demonstrate how criminologists can utilize affect theory to understand aspects of the justice process that otherwise prove elusive.The Handbook is organized around the most pressing topics of interest to researchers, policymakers, and practitioners engaged with crime and the administration of justice. The first set of chapters explore the emotional cartographies of affective governance through engagements with affective labor in penal spaces, incorporating affect theory into genocide studies, modern ruins and feeling the rules, affective meaning in group family therapy programs, and how crime concerns and perceived victimization risks affect public support for harsher criminal sanctions. Part II examines the intersection of affective economies and organizational logics by exploring emotions in the regulation of state violence, the moral economy of mafia organizations, moral economies of the illegal caviar trade, agricultural crime and farmer mental health, and friendship in the lives of urban sex workers. The key topics underpinning Part III include incorporating affect theory into understanding decades of research on correctional populations, rehabilitating emotions through prison dog programs, journeys of women under carceral control, intuition and feelings within penal evaluation, and remorse and emotions in research on criminal-legal decision-makers. Part IV focuses on traumatic affect in problem-solving courts, affective practices in rape trials, emotional dynamics of video links and video evidence in the courtroom, emotions and perceptions of visual evidence, and affective risks and responses to intimate partner violence. Part V engages with affective positionalities through narrative criminology, reflexivity and vulnerability in sexual violence research, death penalty sentencing and hauntings of the court, jury decision-making, judicial authority, and release.By focusing on emotion as a dynamic and transmissible component of human interaction, this important work illuminates how researchers and practitioners can account for the less tangible-but nonetheless extremely significant-aspects of the justice process.

Contributions to Economics

This book challenges the dominance of GDP as the primary benchmark of social progress and offers a rigorous framework for rethinking economic success in high‑income economies. Drawing on the evolution of welfare measurement—from GDP to MEW, NNW, and the Genuine Progress Indicator—the book critically examines the limits of growth‑centered policy and its implications for wellbeing. Moving beyond conventional market‑failure analysis, the author introduces a novel 
 system and factor
 approach that addresses observed failures of modern economies alongside pressing global challenges such as climate change, pandemics, and geopolitical conflict. By integrating welfare‑enhancing policies with explicit consideration of welfare‑deductive risks, the book provides a balanced and policy‑relevant vision of societal development. This volume will be of interest to scholars and graduate students in economics, public policy, and social welfare, as well as policymakers seeking practical pathways toward a welfare‑oriented mature society.

A Good Society

'Compelling and compassionate' Sadiq Khan 'Solutions-focused authorship at its best' Andrew Roberts 'A how-to book with inspired answers to our urgent questions' Lyse Doucet 'Read this book as an antidote to fatalism and gloom' Robert Peston 'Closely reported, surprising and, above all, hopeful' Jonathan Freedland At a time when democracies seem paralyzed by fear and populations are turning inward, award-winning journalist John Kampfner travels to ten countries confronting our shared challenges with bravery and imagination. - Taiwan's health system achieves 90% patient satisfaction at a fraction of the cost of the NHS. - Moroccan solar panels in the Sahara produce enough clean energy to power two million homes. - Estonia has transformed itself into a digital pioneer in a single generation - becoming the world's first fully digital government where 97.6% of citizens access state services online. - Costa Rica has tripled its economy while doubling its forest cover, proving that green policies can pay direct dividends. What unites these countries, and more, is a refusal to accept that difficult problems are unsolvable. The places showing true innovation are often those with their backs against the wall - not wealthy nations assuming they have all the answers. Braver New World is an urgent reminder that solutions exist. The question is whether we have the courage to learn. 'A persuasive and imaginative argument against the gloom of our times' Bronwen Maddox 'Seminal... A rallying cry for radical, pragmatic optimism; democratic and institutional courage' Shashi Tharoor 'A thought-provoking read, full of real ideas that could make Britain a better place' Lindsey Hilsum 'A must-read for Keir Starmer and anyone hoping to take over from him' The Rt Hon Jeremy Hunt

THE ETHICAL OCEAN

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>

Now in a fully revised and updated new edition, Sport, Exercise and Social Theory is a concise and engaging introduction to the key theories that underpin the study of sport, exercise, and physical activity in society.Structured around C. Wright Mills's concept of the sociological imagination, the capacity to connect personal troubles to public issues and individual biographies to broader social structures, the book shows how theory can be used to debunk many of our traditional assumptions about sport and exercise, and how sport and physical activity can be a powerful window through which to observe and understand wider society. Designed to be used by students who have never studied sociology before, the book provides training in critical thinking and helps students develop intellectual skills that will serve them throughout their professional and personal lives. This new edition includes significantly expanded coverage of feminism and theories related to gender, including new material on the Manosphere, intersectionality, and the trans athletes debate, as well as completely new chapters on nationalism, decolonial perspectives, and ableism and disability. Every chapter includes updated cases and examples, from sportswashing and athlete activism to digital fan cultures, artificial intelligence, and the controversies around sporting mega-events, drawing throughout on the author's own internationally recognised research. Useful pedagogical features include 'Stop and Think' boxes, biographical notes on key theorists, and chapter summaries.This book is an essential companion to any course on sport and society, the sociology of sport, or the contemporary uses of social theory.Additional resources for instructors accompany this book, including classroom discussion topics and exercises, plus exam questions.

Sport, Exercise and Social Theory

'Contagion' is a crucial term in the theory of networks, that is nowadays employed to study increasingly diverse issues such as financial crises, epidemics, and fake news. It provides a unifying framework to describe various social and economic phenomena that occur within different networks - involving various forms of contagion.This book discusses contagion over social and economic networks, and its consequences for modern societies. It starts with an accessible but solid introduction to basic concepts of the theory of networks, with intuitive explanations and examples both of networks that shape our daily lives, and of how researchers analyze them. It then focuses specifically on contagion, and on its importance for societies. Three crucial examples are analyzed more in depth: epidemiological contagion, fake news and financial crises. The conclusions show how various societal problems - each consequence of some form of contagion - call for similar policy measures: a pre-emptive and comprehensive effort in collecting the required information, and a shift in the concept of individual responsibility itself.This is a book for any reader who is interested in how contagion and networks shape modern society.

From Pandemics to Financial Crises and Fake News

Contagion and the Responsibility of Networks

This book offers an in-depth examination of how family background shapes inequalities in children's academic performance and cognitive skill development in China. It further identifies key mediating mechanisms-including living arrangements, family investments, parenting practices, and private tutoring-that help explain how these disparities emerge and persist.While repeated cross-sectional data are valuable for examining macro-level social changes over time, they are inherently limited in their ability to capture individual-level dynamics and identify underlying causal mechanisms. To overcome these limitations, sociologists of China have increasingly turned to the rich, high-quality longitudinal data provided by the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), launched in 2010, to investigate social and economic inequality across multiple levels and domains. The essays in this volume draw exclusively on CFPS data and collectively examine how families shape children's educational attainment, highlighting a range of intervening pathways. Together, these studies provide a coherent and empirically rigorous understanding of the mechanisms through which family background contributes to educational inequality in contemporary China.This book will be an important resource for researchers and academics of Chinese sociology and demography. The articles were originally published in various issues of Chinese Sociological Review.
