For centuries, the Latin notarial system has evolved in response to society's growing demand for legal certainty. Yet the increasing complexity of economic relations calls for a new stage in that evolution: a notarial system capable not only of ensuring legal certainty but also of realizing its full institutional potential to promote economic efficiency in private legal relationships through enhanced governance, conflict prevention, and the preservation of the contractual rationale built throughout the notarial process, so that disputes, when unavoidable, may be resolved consistently with the parties' legitimate choices, interests, and objectives.
 
 This book argues that such evolution requires neither abandoning nor replacing the historical foundations of the Latin notariat, but reinterpreting them in light of contemporary economic challenges. It introduces the Law-and-Economics Notary as the central institutional figure of the Law-and-Economics Notarial Paradigm, a new theoretical framework explaining how the civil-law notarial system can meet growing demands for economic efficiency while preserving the principles that have historically defined its identity.
 
 The book demonstrates that the Law-and-Economics Notary represents a new understanding of the notarial function. Public faith is conceived not only as an instrument of documentary authentication but also as a mechanism of private governance capable of structuring incentives, reducing transaction costs, mitigating information asymmetries and behavioral biases, strengthening trust among economic actors, and fostering more efficient, predictable, and socially beneficial legal relationships.
 
 Developed independently through the integration of law, economics, and notarial practice, the Law-and-Economics Notarial Paradigm later proved to converge with the evolutionary direction reflected in the studies and institutional agenda of the International Union of Notaries. This independent convergence confirms its capacity to explain and operationalize institutional transformations already emerging across the modern civil-law notariat.
 
 By integrating law, economics, and contractual governance, this book offers a new understanding of the notarial function and a coherent paradigm for the evolution of the Latin notarial system. Rather than replacing its traditional foundations, it demonstrates how they can be reinterpreted and further developed, thereby contributing to legal certainty, economic efficiency, preventive justice, and, ultimately, to economic development.

A Paradigm Shift in the Latin Notarial System

The Law-and-Economics Notary

Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies

This book examines the relationship between LGBTIQ communities and law in Australia from colonial times to the present day, with a particular concentration on the last 40 years. Using a socio-legal analysis that combines legislation, case law, media reports, policy materials and government data, it traces the historical shift from criminalisation and erasure to conditional legal recognition. The book develops a critical queer perspective, analysing how sexual and gender minorities moved from being classified through the figure of the criminal ‘homosexual’ to being recognised as members of LGBTIQ communities with a status of almost legal equality. Structured historically, its chapters examine distinct phases of legal reform, governance and LGBTIQ activism. The book covers key issues in sexuality, gender, family, embodiment and sex classification, while offering an extended account of the legal questions affecting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer people. Although focused on Australia, it speaks to wider debates across post-colonial jurisdictions, Commonwealth countries and the United States. It will be of interest to students and academics in socio-legal studies, queer legal theory, sexuality and gender studies, law reform, and LGBTIQ politics and activism.Allen George
 is Lecturer in Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Sydney, Australia, where he has lectured since 2009. His research focuses on law, sexuality, gender and LGBTIQ communities. He has also taught sociology and criminology at the University of Newcastle.

From Erasure to Eligibility

Law, Governance and the Queer Subject

Written by leading practitioners in the field, this book provides a coherent framework for understanding the principles of sports law. The subject is split into various areas of practice. First regulatory rules, which embrace the constitutional aspect of organised sport including the disciplinary procedures of the various sport governing organisations. Second, broadcasting and marketing resulting from the commercial exploitation, including sponsorship, of sports clubs, sporting events and players. Third, player's rights and obligations which embraces a wide range of legal issues including club transfers and player contracts, and issues arising from employment (including discrimination law), personal injury and criminal law. Special attention is paid to the impact of EU and Human Rights law as well as to the influential jurisprudence of the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Written by an expert team, including the father of sports law, Michael Beloff QC, this is required reading for all those practising in the field.

“…this edition is hugely well researched, equally well written and provides a holistic approach to the wide-ranging elements that comprise an ever-increasing and ever more popular specialist area of the law…What sets this publication apart from its competitors is the very essence that the reader is benefiting from the duality both of the collective knowledge and hands-on experience of the authorship in all aspects. A considered group opinion is thus put forward and is notably refreshing in the process…It is thoroughly enriched by being logical, intuitive, engagingly written and, above all, insightful…Practitioners, academics and sports administrators alike, cannot fail to be impressed and now everyone concerned in sports law has at their fingertips a handbook they can treat as a working bible. We cannot commend it highly enough.” – Mel Goldberg, International Sports Law Review, Issue 4

“Any lawyer interested in the field of sports law should have the Second Edition of Sports Law to hand; its lucid, comprehensive yet concise exposition of the relevant jurisprudence is as invigorating as a cold blast of fresh air in a sweaty workout. It reads like a good opinion, in which the author has mastered his subject and speaks authoritatively, with the answer and reasoning set out clearly and understood...Sports Law is written with intellectual rigour combined with a zest for the subject matter. The four authors bring a diversity of juridical backgrounds that instills a breath of vision into the analysis. If you are a busy practitioner looking for the "answer" to a sports law problem, this is the textbook; if you are an academic searching for some underlying principles and theories, there is plenty for you too.” – Tim Lord QC, Counsel Magazine

“One of the many strengths of this book is its concision and good English. It is well bound, clearly and comprehensively footnoted and with full case indices at the beginning. It is easy to read ... Any law firm or sports organisation which has sports legal issues arising from time to time would find this book a very useful addition to library shelves. The authors have struck a lovely balance between in-depth knowledgeable commentary but presented in a way the busy lawyer can understand. It will be my first port of call from now on for any sports law question.” – Susan Singleton, IT Law Today

Dirty Dragging ist dem unberechenbaren, nomadischen Mitschleppen gewidmet und reformuliert queertheoretische Fragen aus transozeanischer Perspektive. Das Buch beschäftigt sich mit der Ambivalenz ¿dreckiger¿ Auftrittsformen von Drag über Karneval bis zur Propaganda in politischen Gewaltzusammenhängen: unter Apartheid, NS und Jim Crow-Segregation. Evelyn Annuß erweitert die Lektüre von Gender Bending um Perspektiven auf Blackface und ¿racialized Drag¿. Entsprechend fragt Dirty Dragging sowohl nach gewaltförmigen, lokal spezifischen Mobilisierungen des Transgressiven als auch danach, wie wie sich queere und kreolisierte Formen performativen Widerstreits gegen identitäre Trennungen verschränken. So erinnert das Buch vor dem Hintergrund gegenwärtigen rechtsautoritären Abdriftens zugleich an das potenzielle Glück, die Verhältnisse kollektiv zum Tanzen zu bringen.

Das Buch arbeitet den gesamten Bereich des öffentlichen Wirtschaftsrechts systematisch auf. Behandelt werden insbesondere die weltweite internationale wirtschaftliche Verflechtung und deren institutioneller Rahmen, wie beispielsweise die WTO. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt sind die Fragen der wirtschaftlichen europäischen Integration. Insgesamt ergibt sich so der rechtliche Rahmen für internationale, supranationale und nationale Wirtschaftspolitik. Darüber hinaus werden die Organisationsformen und die rechtlichen Instrumente der Wirtschaftsregulierung einschl. der Wirtschaftsaufsicht analysiert. Da der Staat auch in einem freiheitlichen wirtschaftlichen System am Markt teilnimmt, wurden das Vergaberecht und die öffentlichen Unternehmen in die Behandlung einbezogen. Schließlich setzt sich der Verfasser mit der veränderten Stellung des Staates in unserer Zeit auseinander.

People with mental illnesses in the United States are 10 times more likely to be incarcerated than hospitalized. In fact, seventy percent of individuals in jail in the United States have a serious mental illness, a substance use disorder, or both. After confronting the failures of our criminal justice system first-hand, Judge Steve Leifman realized that for the system to improve, a radical change was necessary. In 2000, he created Florida’s 11th Judicial Circuit Criminal Mental Health Project, later renamed to the Jail Diversion Project (JDP). Uniting all facets of the criminal justice system from courts to clinics, the program has become one of the most impactful models for prison reform across the country. Complete Justice reveals Judge Leifman’s courageous and visionary efforts to successfully overhaul and restructure Miami-Dade’s mental health and criminal justice systems. The results have been nothing short of miraculous. Arrests were cut in half, the jail audit was reduced by almost half, police shootings almost stopped, and the county was able to close one of its three main jails at a savings of millions of dollars. Best of all, the results shown tin the book are replicable and scalable. Leifman has created a state-of-the-art, transferable model, the “Miami Model,” that is starting to be applied around the country in communities large and small. This highly successful initiative, consisting of both pre-arrest and post-arrest diversion programs, brings together the resources and services of law enforcement, the justice system, and community stakeholders to divert individuals with mental illnesses who commit low-level offenses away from incarceration and into community-based care. Complete Justice is the inside story of development, creation, and implementation of the Miami Model - and how it can save lives anywhere and everywhere else. Starting with a trip to a psychiatric wing of a Florida jail at age 17, through his early missteps as a young judge bumping up against convoluted the mental health legislature, the formation of the JDP and monumental report on Florida’s mental health system, and finally spotlighting courts across the country adopting his program, Leifman’s inspiring work offers kindness, insight, and real solutions to one of America’s most complex social problems.

Ending the Criminalization of Mental Illness

This book examines how AI in employment can lead to sex discrimination and sets out a legal response through analysis and reform.The risk of sex discrimination in employment is being driven by the increasing use of artificial intelligence. While AI promises efficiency and economic value, its application in employment decision-making, from job advertising to recruitment and performance evaluations, can unintentionally perpetuate or even exacerbate existing sex discrimination. This book examines how AI across the employment lifecycle contributes to sex discrimination and assesses whether current UK legal frameworks are sufficient to address this emerging risk. It provides a detailed analysis of the Equality Act 2010 and data protection law. Drawing on comparative insights from EU and US law, the book proposes comprehensive legal reforms to both regulatory frameworks and substantive law, with the aim of ensuring that AI technologies promote fairness, equality, and transparency in employment.The book will be of interest to researchers in the field of discrimination law, data protection law, employment law, and artificial intelligence.

Oñati International Series in Law and Society

This edited collection explores the question of how those with limited capacity are enabled to take their part as members of society within the context of both a legal framework and the expectations of their family and community. The book is divided into three parts, firstly looking at the current legal position on incapacity in a number of jurisdictions. It discusses the recent European project FLEUR, and the associated debates developing around whether legislation dealing with incapacity should aim to support or control the vulnerable person. Secondly, the book looks at the experience of families with vulnerable members. Chapters examine developments in Australia, Spain, Bulgaria and Argentina, while part three looks at France, Turkey, Canada, the Netherlands, Poland and Ukraine. It asks questions such as: What are the contemporary demands for full financial protection by the state in the Netherlands? What can happen in an emergency? How did the Polish system provide for the needs of refugees in wartime, in the case of the recent flight from Ukraine into Poland? An important dimension is added to the debate, asking how we can provide support and control within a social network or group whose members have different aims and needs in a family or a community.
