HBR Guide to Generative AI for Teams

This book examines intermediate appellate courts by using the Irish Court of Appeal as a case study. The operation and contribution of intermediate appellate courts are often overlooked in legal scholarship, which tends to focus on apex courts, most frequently national supreme courts. However, intermediate appellate courts perform a series of vital functions, including error prevention, the development of doctrine, and ensuring that apex courts are free to concentrate on issues of exceptional public importance. The significance of intermediate appellate courts has increased in recent decades in tandem with an increase in the volume and complexity of litigation in many countries. The Irish Court of Appeal was established in 2014 and this enables a number of dimensions of non-apex courts to be examined, including the rationales for, and challenges of, inserting such a court into an existing and well-established legal system. Institutional aspects of the court such as the appointment and promotion of its judges and its rules on dissent are analysed. The process of 'setting up court' is described. In addition, its contribution to some areas of substantive law over the first 10 years of its operation is evaluated. Interviews with judges who have served on the Court enrich the book's account of its operation and development. In addition, comparative perspectives from Northern Ireland and England and Wales enhance the analysis of an integral part of many legal systems.

This book fills a gap in the existing literature by providing a thorough assessment of EU regulations as a source of secondary legislation and their application in all twenty-seven Member States. It also explores that application in neighbouring countries. EU regulations are perceived as the strongest and the most effective sources of EU secondary legislation and it is well-established by the Court of Justice of the European Union that their provisions have vertical and horizontal direct effect. Part 1 of this book examines these points, providing a backdrop to the analysis in the remaining chapters. Parts 2 and 3 focus on the national reception of EU regulations in Member States, and in selected neighbouring jurisdictions. Written by leading practitioners and academics, the book offers both a conceptual underpinning to this element of the European Union's law-making, as well as its practical application.

This is a book about banned books in the U.S. - about reading them, teaching them, and lending them under the shadow of political pressure not to. Banning Books in America features novelists on banning and being banned, arguments about the histories and politics of book banning, readings of banned books in national and international contexts, and responses to new legislation by anti-censorship advocates, teachers, and librarians. Together, these writers and educators provide a view from the trenches of the wars on reading. They offer, if not a single blueprint, models for how to think about what it means to ban books and how to fight back against the forces that would ban them. This book shows that at the heart of this issue is the question of what books mean to people. Some Americans are determined to decide which books other Americans shouldn't get to read. Why these books? Why now? Anyone who seeks to answer these questions must examine the context, historical and current, in which Americans allow this to happen. This is a book about book banning in America, and so it is a book about America.

Author, curator and podcaster Bruno Giussani was the European director and global curator of the TED conferences for two decades (2005-24). In 
 Our Minds Under Siege,
 the specialist of digital culture writes about the "technologies of influence" and their social and political implications. In a world saturated with information, social media, artificial intelligence and strategies of cognitive influence, our capacity for thinking clearly and understanding reality is itself under threat. It is no longer only about disinformation and fake news: these technologies capture our attention, appropriate our data, analyze and exploit our emotions and challenge our autonomy of thought.
 Giussani decrypts how AI and other algorithmic technologies work and what their impacts are. He explains the nature of the relationship that is developing between us and these machines and the economic and power structures in which they exist. And he offers guidance to resisting against this technological takeover and for us to become competent users of AI without being used by it.

This book provides the first detailed analysis of the decision to prosecute made by the statutory Australian Offices of Director of Prosecution.

It examines the system of prosecution as part of the executive branch of government, and the role and challenges of the individual prosecutors who make decisions within the system. It explores the tension between prosecutorial independence and prosecutorial accountability, and the paradox that political involvement in prosecutions is necessary for accountability and to uphold the public interest, but can compromise independence. 

The book makes a unique contribution to both Australian criminal law scholarship and to the international literature on criminal prosecution, by drawing on the sub-disciplines of criminal law and administrative law. It includes case studies on prosecuting child sexual abuse, rape, and government espionage, and comparisons with common law and civil law countries including the USA, the UK, Italy and South Africa.

Die drohende Klimakatastrophe ist für Wissenschaft, Wirtschaft und Politik die Herausforderung des 21. Jahrhunderts. Auch das Recht hat sich der Lösung dieser Überlebensfrage der Menschheit zu stellen. Während das Klimaschutzrecht die Schonung der lebensnotwendigen Atmosphäre regelt, geht es im Klimawandelfolgerecht um die Anpassung. Der Band bietet erstmals eine aktuelle Darstellung aller Bereiche und Instrumente des neuen Rechtsgebiets, er ermöglicht Lesern ein eigenständiges Urteil und leistet damit einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Klimadiskussion.

Die drohende globale Klimakatastrophe ist die wissenschaftlich-technische und wirtschaftlich-politische Herausforderung im 21. Jahrhundert. Auch das Recht hat sich der Lösung dieser Überlebensfrage der Menschheit zu stellen.Wohlgeordnetes Klima-Recht als regulative Idee ist als Gebot der Vorkehrung, Vorsorge und Verantwortung Teil der Lösung des Klimaproblems. Während das Klimaschutzrecht den Rechtsrahmen zum ganzheitlichen Schutz oder zumindest zur Schonung der lebensnotwendigen Atmosphäre umschließt, geht es im Klimawandelfolgerecht um die Anpassung. Der Bogen wird dabei vom Energierecht einschließlich erneuerbarer Energien über das Umwelt- und Agrarrecht bis hin zum Welthandels- und Umweltvölkerrecht gespannt. Die Einführung gibt erstmalig einen aktuellen Überblick, klärt Bereiche, Ebenen und Instrumente des neuen Rechtsgebietes, ermöglicht ein eigenständiges Urteil und leistet damit einen wichtigen Beitrag zur aktuellen Klimadiskussion.

Das neue Lehrbuch zum Allgemeinen Verwaltungsrecht von Claudio Franzius bietet eine verwaltungsrechtliche Dogmatik im Kontext. Es will die klassische Zweiteilung von Verwaltungsrecht und Verwaltungswissenschaft auf der einen Seite und Verwaltungsrecht und Unionsrecht auf der anderen Seite überwinden. Aus verwaltungswissenschaftlicher Perspektive soll das Steuerungsmodell für die Darstellung des Allgemeinen Verwaltungsrechts fruchtbar gemacht werden, etwa bei der Prüfung behördlicher Ermessensentscheidungen: die der Verwaltung im Wege des Ermessens eingeräumten Letztentscheidungsbefugnisse werden nach dem Steuerungsmodell nicht als Wahlfreiheit, sondern als ein durch den Gesetzeszweck angeleitetes Abwägen von Richtigkeitskriterien verstanden. Eingehend wird die europarechtliche Perspektive auf das Verwaltungsrecht dargestellt.
Weiterhin aufrechterhalten bleibt die Trennung zwischen Allgemeinem und Besonderem Verwaltungsrecht. Das Lehrbuch stellt die Bezüge zum Besonderen Verwaltungsrecht dar, wohingegen auf eine Darstellung des öffentlichen Sachenrechts verzichtet wird. Die wesentlichen Anspruchsgrundlagen des Staatshaftungsrechts werden behandelt. Zahlreiche Beispielsfälle runden die Darstellung ab.

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "Deftly written, Chokepoints is a compelling and dramatic narrative about the new shape of geopolitics." — Daniel Yergin, The Wall Street Journal "A timely, riveting world tour...[An] absorbing book." — The Economist “Remarkable...One of the most important books on economic warfare ever written.” —&nbsp;Paul Kennedy, author of The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers The epic story of how America turned the world economy into a weapon, upending decades of globalization to take on a new authoritarian axis—Russia, China, and Iran. It used to be that ravaging another country’s economy required blockading its ports and laying siege to its cities. Now all it takes is a statement posted online by the U.S. government. In Chokepoints, Edward Fishman, a former top State Department sanctions official, takes us deep into the back rooms of power to reveal the untold history of the last two decades of U.S. foreign policy, in which America renounced the gospel of globalization and waged a new kind of economic war. As Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Ayatollah Khamenei wreaked havoc on the world stage, mavericks within the U.S. government built a fearsome new arsenal of economic weapons, exploiting America’s dominance in global finance and technology. Successive U.S. presidents have relied on these unconventional weapons to address the most pressing national-security threats, for good and for ill. Chokepoints provides a thrilling account of one of the most critical geopolitical developments of our time, demystifying the complex strategies the U.S. government uses to harness the power of Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and Big Oil against America’s enemies. At the center of the narrative is an eclectic group of policy innovators: the diplomats, lawyers, and financial whizzes who’ve masterminded America’s escalating economic wars against Russia, China, and Iran. Economic warfare has become the primary way the United States confronts international crises and counters rivals. Sometimes it has achieved spectacular success; other times, bitter failure. The result we live with today is a new world order: an economic arms race among great powers and a fracturing global economy. Chokepoints is the definitive account of how America pioneered this new, hard-hitting style of economic war—and how it’s changing the world.
