Ius Gentium: Comparative Perspectives on Law and Justice

The contemporary significance of the subject “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is indisputable. In periods of social polarization, conflict and crisis, it is imperative that the obligation of our societies to protect and promote social rights is addressed and acknowledged. It is also necessary to recognize the way in which social rights are jeopardized by inequalities that impede the cultivation of robust social relationships and to document instances of the implementation of affirmative actions in this scenario. The aims of this work are as follows: firstly, to establish general topics (part I); secondly, to undertake more specific investigations within the primary topic (part II); and thirdly, to address the challenges posed by the technological transition currently taking place in society, which has significant consequences for social rights, (in)equality, and affirmative action (part III). The study is organized into three sections corresponding to these targets. For the purposes of this study, the analysis will commence, in the Part I of this book, at the genesis of the debates, as outlined in the chapter concerning the old and the new forms of racism. This contribution is followed by a chapter on the growing recognition of intersectional discrimination in European and global human rights frameworks and by another on structural discrimination and the function of the law against unjust enrichment. To further explore and expand upon the subjects addressed in the preceding chapters, the final chapter of Part I of this book delves into the topic of affirmative action in the United States. The second part of this work is dedicated primarily to specific forms of affirmative action, thereby deepening the discussion initiated in the first part of this book. The initial topic examines the way in which the pandemic has impacted specific social groups and led to the emergence of health disparities in the UK. The subsequent chapter is devoted to an examination of the alterations in the benefits of minimum income support in Brazil in recent years. The fourth chapter undertakes a detailed investigation of a specific affirmative action program for children and adolescents with the objective of reducing violence in urban areas. The final chapter conducts an analysis of ageing, public policies and inclusion in Brazil. The third and final section is dedicated to an examination of the challenges faced by our technological societies. The field of “Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action” is set to be impacted by the regulation of artificial intelligence, the increasing digitalization of activities, and the development of new tools designed to enhance the efficiency of the social state. The initial chapter of the concluding section deals with the regulation of artificial intelligence in Brazil and the impacts of neurotechnology. The second study examines conservative digitalization and structural inequalities in Latin American information societies, while the final study focuses on the emergence of the social digital state and the use of instruments that produce inequality and discrimination.

Social Rights, Inequalities and Affirmative Action

Skills for Scholars

Thoughtful advice on how to leave academia gracefully and build your best life in retirement Retirement is one of the most challenging transitions in an academic's career, and it's natural to feel overwhelmed by the changes that lie ahead. This how-to guide explains how to structure your last few years of employment so that you retire well and feel good about it. Drawing on engaging personal stories from across academia, it shares concrete tips for letting go of one key phase of life and embracing the opportunity to reinvent yourself in the next. On Retiring makes the case that you have the ultimate say in charting your path through retirement, aging, and whatever comes next after academia--and provides the guidance you need to do so. Susan Shaw describes the lessons she learned from her own retirement experience and those of her colleagues, highlighting what worked and what didn't while paying special attention to the things that make the academic workplace unique. She outlines the four-year retirement plan she developed for herself and suggest some steps colleges and universities can take to honor the service of faculty members and help them to stay connected after retirement. Along the way, Shaw examines some of the downsides of aging in the academy and discusses relevant differences in academic experiences, covering topics such as gender, race, and sexuality. Focusing on so much more than just financial planning, On Retiring empowers you with social, psychological, and philosophical tools to leave the academy on your own terms and thrive in retirement.

Witness Testimony

Fire Safety Law and Practice provides a comprehensive and authoritative overview of the legislative framework that governs fire safety in England and Wales. Taking into account the significant amendments that have followed the tragic events of Grenfell Tower, it explains who is subject to duties under the order and what those duties are. It then deals with enforcement, covering the duties on enforcing authorities and the investigatory powers available to them, before looking at both the bringing of criminal proceedings and the powers to issue alteration, prohibition and enforcement notices. Accessible to both those new to the field and experienced legal practitioners, and to fire safety inspectors as well as risk assessors, it serves not only as a reference work, but also provides a detailed practical guide for those working in this area on a daily basis. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Company and Commercial Law online service.

Economic and Financial Law & Policy – Shifting Insights & Values

This book is written for local food producers, consumers, researchers, and policymakers who support sustainable development. By exploring the pre-set functions of Geographical Indications (GIs), this book proves that it is imperative that GIs contribute to sustainable development, e.g., the preservation of local biophysical resources and cultural heritage, climate change mitigation and rural revitalization. This is a multidisciplinary research project involving law, circular economy, and systemic design, with the conclusion which is based on deductive reasoning and exemplified by selected cases. Focusing on EU law and Chinese law on GIs, this book puts forward suggestions for further improvement of GI legislations in the EU and China from a functional perspective concerning values, the subject matters, and protection measures so that GIs can contribute to the achievement of sustainable development goals. It also provides guiding rules for solving the identified conflicts contained in the EU-China Agreement on GIs. This is the first book that explains the product and origin link of GI using circular economy theory in addition to the 
 terroir
 theory. This book can guide local producers to design their production model in a sustainable way and help policymakers to turn GIs into a sustainable development tool.

This seminal work establishes the digital rule of law as the fundamental trajectory for social governance and legal transformation in the digital era. Guided by the vision of "empowering the rule of law through digital technologies while anchoring digital development within legal frameworks," the Digital Law Research Team at Zhejiang University presents pioneering research in this book.

Digital Rule of Law

This book systematically examines the theoretical construction and practical applications of Legalist thought in state governance of ancient China. Centered on the three core theoretical pillars of "Law (Fa), Statecraft/Tactics (Shu), and Authority/Power (Shi)," it conducts an in-depth analysis of the unique insights of Legalist doctrine on legal systems, governance methods, and the operation of power through interpretations of classical works such as The Book of Lord Shang and Han Feizi. In exploring governance practices, this book focuses on the political reforms implemented by various states during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. It elaborates on the establishment of a centralized state structure and evaluates the effectiveness of specific governance mechanisms, including the prefecture-county system, household registration, and collective responsibility system. These institutional innovations not only laid the groundwork for the Qin dynasty's unification of the six states but also provided the foundational framework for China's state governance model over the following two millennia.

This book offers a comprehensive analysis of how recurring contractual practices and arbitral awards in cross-border M&amp;A transactions give rise to transnational M&amp;A law. It begins by defining the scope of inquiry and establishing systems theory as the foundation for understanding the formation of transnational M&amp;A law. The discussion then situates these developments within the broader context of economic globalization and the fragmentation of private law. The book highlights the limitations of uniform law instruments in addressing the complexity of cross-border M&amp;A transactions and emphasizes the strategic use of private governance to manage uncertainty, particularly given the natural incompleteness of M&amp;A agreements.The analysis then identifies the three pillars that support the emergence of transnational M&amp;A law: the form shaped by the dominance of English and US/UK legal terminology; the repetition of clauses that reinforce legal memory; and the adaptation of contractual structures driven by M&amp;A global lawyering and the declining relevance of traditional legal families.Building on this foundation, the book explores the substantive components of cross‑border M&amp;A agreements, showing that the purchase price functions as the cornerstone of every M&amp;A deal. It analyzes how valuation and due diligence influence risk allocation, and examines the modular legal structures that recur across M&amp;A deals.The final chapter presents international commercial arbitration as the most suitable mechanism for resolving cross‑border M&amp;A conflicts. Arbitration is well suited to this because it keeps outcomes coherent and reinforces the legal structures the parties themselves agreed on. The conclusion connects the preceding chapters and offers direction for future research on transnational M&amp;A law.
