International Law in Asia

This book examines the legal frameworks governing online safety in the Asia-Pacific, a region marked by diverse legal systems, rapid digital transformation, and varying levels of regulatory intervention. As cyber threats—including online harassment, misinformation, child exploitation, deepfake technology, cyberstalking, and personal data breaches—continue to escalate, governments across the region are busy strengthening their legal responses. While legal responses are ongoing, there is a scarcity of scholarly materials to analyse these responses from doctrinal and comparative legal perspectives.By drawing on case law, legislative texts, policy reports, and interviews with legal experts, the book provides a multidisciplinary analysis of how governments in the Asia-Pacific will approach online safety regulation in the coming years. It also incorporates comparative legal tables, case law summaries, enforcement case studies, and graphical representations of regulatory models to enhance accessibility and practical relevance for readers.As digital governance becomes increasingly complex, online safety laws in the Asia-Pacific will continue to evolve in response to emerging cyber threats and technological advancements. This book contributes to the ongoing academic and policy discourse by providing a systematic, forward-looking examination of the region’s legal frameworks. Through rigorous legal analysis and policy evaluation, the book offers crucial insights for shaping more effective, harmonised, and human rights-compliant online safety regulations in the Asia-Pacific.

Research in International Studies, Africa Series

Resourceful Kingdoms investigates the struggle for control over Uganda’s emerging oil sector, centering on the Bunyoro Kingdom’s unsuccessful effort to secure ownership of resources discovered on its ancestral lands. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, the book shows how the military-backed National Resistance Movement government consolidated authority over an estimated two billion barrels of oil, while Bunyoro communities experienced displacement, land loss, political tension, and significant environmental harm even before production began. The Bunyoro case reflects a wider pattern in which rural, resource-rich populations across Africa are marginalized as governments and multinational corporations convert natural resources into state-centered revenues. The book further explores how indigenous kingdoms might come to own resources and channel revenues toward sustainable, culturally grounded development. Through comparative case studies of Uganda’s powerful Buganda Kingdom and South Africa’s Bafokeng Kingdom-widely recognized for community-based mineral ownership and effective wealth management-Resourceful Kingdoms illustrates how traditional institutions can pair with corporate structures, private land ownership, and diversified investment strategies to strengthen community prosperity. From this analysis emerges strategic coexistence, a new framework that outlines how kingdoms can secure resource rights independent of shifting state policies or corporate social-responsibility initiatives. Presented as both a philosophy and a set of practical steps, strategic coexistence urges kingdoms to formalize land ownership, build strong indigenous governance systems, create community-owned corporations, reinvest resource revenues in long-term development, and transition away from dependence on extractive industries. Resourceful Kingdoms ultimately repositions African kingdoms as dynamic, contemporary governance institutions with significant potential to influence natural resource administration and advance community well-being.

Routledge Research in Human Rights Law

Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries.

One of the most significant debates in international human rights law and in international law generally in the 21st century is about the responsibility of businesses for human rights in their areas of influence. The last decade witnessed significant, arguably monumental, development in global norms pertaining to the human rights obligation of businesses. Of particular significance is the emergence of a distinct business and human rights agenda driven by two normative instruments: the 2008 Protect, Respect and Remedy: a Framework for Business and Human Rights and the 2011 UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.Business and Human Rights in Africa raises interesting questions about the legitimacy and long-term viability of the business and human rights agenda in Africa, and in developing countries more generally. It explores the key issues for business and human rights in Africa and asks how and to what extent are the UN Guiding Principles changing the law and policy in Africa or the behavior of businesses operating in the continent? The book examines both the international and regional legal and policy initiatives on business and human rights in Africa and how these initiatives are being implemented in selected countries. Focusing in part on the extractive industry it consider the industry standards and best practices as well as the challenges the industry still faces in order to avoid human rights abuses. The book examines and evaluates emerging practices designed to minimize, manage, or mitigate corporate impact on human rights in Africa. It looks at the role of national and regional courts in Africa in ensuring accountability of businesses in Africa as well as considering the possible role for alternative dispute resolution mechanisms in realizing accountability.

Studies in Australian Law, Politics and History

This book lays out a roadmap for establishing common law recognition of Aboriginal customary law in Australia. Currently, Aboriginal customary law is recognised in limited circumstances through native title, which applies only to rights and interests over traditional lands or waters. This book argues that, if a carefully constructed claim is accepted by an Australian Court, Aboriginal customary law could potentially be recognised across a wide range of legal areas, including criminal law, family law, succession, environmental law, and criminal procedure. Importantly, this would also afford legal recognition to organic Indigenous governance structures. It also proposes a roadmap for establishing a hybrid equitable-constitutional fiduciary obligation that the Crown would owe Indigenous Australians. This could provide valuable protections to Indigenous rights and societies from impositions made by legislatures and executives purporting to exercise powers under the 
 Australian Constitution. Distinctive in its approach, this volume is among the first post-2020 works to explore a common law pathway for recognising and furthering the rights of Indigenous societies, governance systems, and legal frameworks, at a time when most scholarship has focused on express constitutional recognition or recognition via treaties and agreements (notably in Victoria).
 The book builds on the landmark High Court decision in 
 Love v Commonwealth 
 (2020), where the Court recognised that Aboriginal Australians, owing to their enduring connection to country, could not be considered ‘aliens’ under the 
 Constitution
 . While 
 Love 
 initially addressed alienage and constitutional protections, this work argues that its reasoning opens the door to broader common law recognition of Indigenous Australians’ rights, laws, and governance structures, beyond the scope of native title.
 Through careful legal analysis and a proposed claims framework, this book contributes to an emergent body of scholarship exploring the legal consequences of recognizing Aboriginal Australians’ enduring connection to country, offering a path toward meaningful expansion of Indigenous legal recognition in Australia, and bringing Australian law closer to the more progressive Indigenous rights doctrines of common law North America.

Intellectual Property Debates in South Asia

This book brings together key academics and practitioners from across the country, to provide a comprehensive reflection on the under-researched area of Australian military disciplinary law. It covers a broad range of topics on the nature of military discipline law, legacy issues arising from its historical origins, contemporary challenges regarding its application in the domestic and international domains, and likely future directions. The authors are all qualified Australian lawyers with varied backgrounds as civilians, reservists and current and former permanent Australian Defence Force (ADF) legal officers. The balance of authorship ensures that the collection as a whole reflects both the internal operation and culture of the ADF, and provides an independent, critical perspective on it. The issue of military discipline in both domestic and international settings has received extensive and ongoing media and public attention in the last decade. The public interest in the topic was apparent between 2013 and 2017, when investigations of the ‘Skype’ and ‘Jedi Council’ scandals revealed that male ADF members had been producing and sharing online footage of sexual encounters with women without the consent of the women involved, and accompanied by sexist and disrespectful commentary. The implications of discipline on overseas military operations were brought to the public attention in 2016, when the Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force commissioned an inquiry into allegations that members of the Special Operations Task Group in Afghanistan breached the Law of Armed Conflict between 2005 to 2016.
