This book presents a contemporary perspective on legal rights centred on the longstanding will theory-interest theory debate. Starting with classical rights literature, central aspects of the debate in its modern idiom are contextualised within a social theory setting developed from the writings of Max Weber. The book explores the idea that the institutional and coercive character of legal enforcement necessitates viewing legal rights as a locus of social power residing within the 'institutional imagination': that is, in the decision-making of key institutional actors such as judges, prosecutors, police, governmental authorities - and ultimately supreme court judges - who routinely mobilise coercive mechanisms towards the enforcement of legal rights and powers. This marks a departure from the trend of rights literature to view legal rights largely from the standpoint of the right-holder. The book also touches on whether the emerging perspective points towards a 'third way' beyond the traditional two theoretical approaches. A major task of the study is the construction of an archetypal supreme court judge - personifying the 'institutional imagination' - fashioned, via Weberian sociology, from a critique of Ronald Dworkin's 'Herculean' judge and measured against doctrinal exegesis that draws on sources which include UK higher appellate court judgments.

Anthem Studies in Law Reform

This short book examines the taxonomy of 'voluntary obligations' presented by Viscount Stair in his seminal Institutions of the Law of Scotland, arguing that - notwithstanding ongoing proposals to significantly reform 'Scots contract law' -&nbsp; Stair's account of 'will' and 'engagement' offers the better route forward for legal development in this area.

An inventive new look at the shared histories of Britain's nationsThe future of England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and adjacent islands is in flux again - as it has been repeatedly for millennia.This book tells the story of the Celts, Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Normans and others who have occupied these isles, along with their culture, languages and passions. It charts the kaleidoscope of overlapping and conflicting identities, along with the changing role of women and the stories of emigrants and immigrants.England conquered Wales in the Middle Ages and formed unions with Scotland in 1707 and Ireland in 1801. Britain was fashioned by the opportunities of the largest empire the world has seen, coupled with a desire to defend Protestantism against a largely Catholic Europe. It was always a fragile union, however. Ireland broke away in 1922 after a war of independence. And as the Empire crumbled, nationalism grew in Scotland and Wales. Northern Ireland, which remained part of the UK, was wracked by a 30-year civil war. Even the name of the islands is contested: is it the 'British Isles' or 'Britain and Ireland' or even the 'Atlantic Archipelago'? The future of the nations is in question again, with vital consequences for all their inhabitants and for the world.This examination of the past, present and future relationship between England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland - along with the Isle of Man, Channel Islands and other isles - covers over 200 million years of history, with a particular focus on the colourful and pivotal parts. Themes include the part played by religion and the British Empire, international diasporas and internal migration. With forays into popular culture, sport, music, language, literature, art and everything in between, Groom examines the state of the nations, the feelings of their inhabitants and the prospects for further changes in the relationship between them.

What do our gardens say about us?Monty Don has spent many years travelling the world, from America to Japan, from Italy and the Adriatic to Spain and the Mediterranean, getting under the skin of a country through its gardens and gardening traditions. In British Gardens, he finally brings his focus to home, journeying from the northern tip of Scotland to the Cornish coast, seeking to understand what our gardens tell us about ourselves as a nation. Encompassing historical gardens and public parks, mountains and seascapes, urban gardens and rural nurseries, glasshouses and community plots, each encounter is another link in a larger story of British identity: marks of ingenuity, eccentricity, and adaptation to changing environments. From Northumbria's Alnwick Gardens and Beatrix Potter's Lake District farmhouse to the rewilded walled garden on the Knepp Estate and the story of Britain's first garden gnome, Monty's account brings in an astonishing range of British experience. Accompanied by a landmark five-part series on BBC2, and illustrated by stunning photography from Monty's long-time collaborator Derry Moore, British Gardens is a definitive, and uniquely British, account of a nation like no other.

Award-winning Dene activist and writer Katlia teaches us Indigenous ways to protect Mother Earth from destruction.The Dene in Canada’s North West territories have lived alongside nature for many generations. From battling environmental racism on the front lines of historical environmental protests, to innovating sustainable resources, to living a balanced life through effective individual and collective governance, the Dene have long protected Mother Earth from destruction through their intricate knowledge systems, natural laws, and age-old principles.Now more than ever, institutions and citizens alike are seeking out and relying on the resilience of Indigenous knowledge systems to help solve the climate crisis. This book brings together a diverse group of Dene elders on the subject of climate change to answer the calls for help. Adhering proudly to these responsibilities and values, Katlia (pronounced cat-lee-ah) writes a Dene manifesto fit to address the state of emergency we’re in. Informed by Katlia's decades-long award-winning work and advocacy as a writer and activist, and her life experiences as a Dene woman from the north, this book achieves global relevance by focusing on the local.This is ancient information, but it’s new to those outside the Dene community, and Katlia's voice channels our collective energy toward surprisingly simple scalable solutions such as:<ul><li>sustainable, ethical food sources as a path toward food sovereignty</li><li>intermittent renewables and innovative alternatives to heat and power homes</li><li>housing systems incorporating green technologies into cultural ways of knowing that include living off grid</li><li>cultural burning to mitigate out of control wildfires</li></ul>With evidence of how this all works for the Dene people, we see how it might work for us as well. This generous, pragmatic, and hopeful book shows us how to find coexistence with Mother Earth and embrace the wisdom of our local Indigenous communities.Mother Earth Is Our Elder features 10 original black-and-white photographs.

Mother Earth Is Our Elder

Uwe Kischel's comprehensive treatise on comparative law offers a critical introduction to the central tenets of comparative legal scholarship. The first part of the book is dedicated to general aspects of comparative law. The controversial question of methods, in particular, is addressed by explaining and discussing different approaches, and by developing a contextual approach that seeks to engage with real-world issues and takes a practical perspective on contemporary comparative legal scholarship. The second part of the book offers a detailed treatment of the major legal contexts across the globe, including common law, civil law systems (based on Germany and France, and extended to Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, and Latin America, among others), the African context (with an emphasis on customary law), different contexts in Asia, Islamic law and law in Islamic countries (plus a brief treatment of Jewish law and canon law), and transnational contexts (public international law, European Union law, and lex mercatoria). The book offers a coherent treatment of global legal systems that aims not only to describe their varying norms and legal institutions but to propose a better way of seeking to understand how the overall context of legal systems influences legal thinking and legal practice.

This treatise offers in-depth coverage of comparative law, carefully structured and clearly explained by a leading expert. It is an invaluable resource for students seeking a critical introduction to the field, as well as scholars and practitioners, for whom it offers new insights, structures, and approaches.
