Announcing the new series
ELGAR ADVANCED INTRODUCTIONS
Readership
Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful introductions to major fields in the Social
Sciences and Law, expertly written by the world’s leading scholars. Designed to be accessible yet
rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of the issues associated with discrete subject areas.
The aims of the series are two-fold; to pinpoint essential principles of a particular field, and to offer
insights that stimulate critical thinking. By distilling the vast amount of information available on the
subject area into a concise and meaningful form, the volumes serve as accessible introductions for
undergraduate and graduate students coming to the subject for the first time. Importantly, they also
develop well-informed, nuanced critiques of the field that will challenge and extend the understanding
of advanced students, scholars and policy-makers.
Elgar Advanced Introductions
will appeal to graduate students,
advanced undergraduate
students, policy-makers
and non-specialist academics
(though by crystallizing
a field it is expected they
will contribute to overall
scholarly understanding).

European Competition Law
A Case Commentary
Edited by Weijer VerLoren van Themaat
and Berend Reuder, Houthoff Buruma,
the Netherlands
States influence competition in the market in various ways. They often act
themselves as market participants through state-owned enterprises. They
regulate markets and specific sectors of the economy such as public utilities
in particular. In some instances, market regulation explicitly aims to promote
competition in the market. In other instances, regulatory schemes and decisions
may inadvertently distort competition or openly promote conflicting objectives
and even anti-competitive goals. Furthermore, states can distort competition
among firms when they act as purchasers of goods and services as well as when
they grant subsidies to individual firms. This book assembles contributions
by competition law scholars who present new insights on the diversity of
problems and challenges arising from state-initiated restraints of competition
in jurisdictions from all around the world, not only including the EU and the US,
but also Latin American countries, China, India and Australia.

‘This book is unique. It does not contain any text
from the authors themselves, but the story of EU
competition law is entirely told through a smart
selection of quotes from the Commission and EU
courts. This approach is extremely valuable. The
article by article categorization and the extensive
index ensure that influential cases are found
quickly and easily. This book should be on the desk
of every competition authority official and practitioner.’
ASCOLA Competition Law series
Private Enforcement of Antitrust
Regulating Corporate Behaviour
through Collective Claims
in the EU and US
– Alexander Italianer, Director-General for Competition,
European Commission, Belgium
European Competition Law explains EU competition law by presenting
the relevant legal provisions together with carefully selected case extracts
pertaining to those provisions. The selection is based on the interpretative
value of the extracts and is limited to the essentials in order to clearly
demonstrate how competition rules have been interpreted by the European
Commission and the courts. The extracts originate primarily from the
decisions of the European Commission and judgments of the Court of Justice
of the European Union and the European Court of Human Rights.
Key features:
• Article by article overview of EU competition law jurisprudence.
• Unique structure means users can quickly locate decisions and judgments
on any substantive aspect of competition law.
• Concise and judiciously selected extracts from the judgments in the most
important and most instructive cases.
• Through the use of extracts, the authors do not impose their own
analysis, but facilitate a nuanced view of competition law rules, giving
practitioners a more contextual insight.
• Greater number of case extracts than other books gives a more complete
picture of the way rules translate into European jurisprudence.

Edited by Josef Drexl, Max Planck Institute for Innovation
and Competition, Munich, Germany and Vicente Bagnoli,
Mackenzie Presbyterian University, Brazil
Arianna Andreangeli, University
of Edinburgh, UK
Enhancing private litigation as a means of boosting
the detection of anti-competitive behaviour and
of remedying the harmful consequences of these
practices on consumers, has been at the forefront of
the EU Commission agenda for a long time. Starting
from an examination of theories of collective action
as a means of mobilising large groups of individuals, this book examines the
current approaches governing class certification in competition damages claims
in the US Federal courts. Andreangeli argues that the Commission’s ‘established
wisdom’ on collective redress in competition cases, as well as in the general
area of tort law, may no longer be totally justified. The book proposes a more
‘holistic’ approach to collective redress, involving access to civil justice, a greater
role for public enforcement authorities and the involvement of representative
organisation. It argues that this may succeed in delivering on goals of efficient
adjudication and meaningful compensation of antitrust injuries without
compromising on procedural fairness, and therefore that the EU Commission
and the legislatures of many Member States may be more inclined to move away
from their traditional views on these issues.

Market Building through Antitrust

Long-term Contract Regulation
in EU Electricity Markets
‘The Handbook is one of the most practical and
strategic looks at the formulation and conduct of
private treble litigation available. It is practically
unique in going beyond the substance of the antitrust
law and giving the reader a peek behind the curtain as
to how private antitrust litigation actually functions.
It will prove to be of great value to students and
practitioners, both inside and outside the United States,
who want to understand what really occurs in and outside the courtroom.’
– World Competition: Law and Economics Review
Adrien de Hauteclocque, Court of Justice
of the European Union, Luxembourg
‘Antitrust is a sledgehammer to the creation of
European-wide markets. How does it really work
though? Take the case of power contracting. Look at
the smart and fresh view from a promising scholar:
Adrien de Hauteclocque. A must read.’

Antitrust/Competition Law & Policy
New Horizons in Competition Law and Economics series
Series editors: Steven Anderman, University of Essex, UK
and Rudolph J.R. Peritz, New York Law School, US
This series provides research-based analysis and discussion of the
appropriate role for economic thinking in the formulation of competition law
and policy. The books in the series move beyond studies of the traditional
role of economics – that of helping to define markets and assess market
power – to explore the extent to which economic thinking can play a role
in the formulation of legal norms, such as abuse of a dominant position,
restriction of competition and substantial impediments to or lessening of
competition. This in many ways is the new horizon of competition law policy.

Joint Research and Development
under US Antitrust and EU Competition Law
Björn Lundqvist, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
This fascinating new book dissects, from a competition law perspective,
how research and development collaborations operate under both US
and EU antitrust law. Analyzing the evolution of this innovation landscape
from the 1970s to the present day, Lundqvist details the modifications and
amendments made over this time to the relevant legal acts and guidelines.
In doing to, the author picks up on the slow shift that has taken place in
both the antitrust laws of the USA and the competition rules of the EU.
The book concludes by discussing the necessity for a stringent attitude
towards the antitrust establishment, and how this can be developed
by reviving the concept of the “innovation market”.

Competition Damages Actions
in the EU
The Rise and Limits of Self-Regulation
Björn Lundqvist, Copenhagen Business
School, Denmark
Law and Practice
Standardization under EU Competition Rules
and US Antitrust Laws offers comparative insight
into how technology standards and the standard
setting process are regulated under United States
antitrust law and European Union competition
rules respectively. The current focus on single firms’ use of patents to exclude
competition, for example, patent and FRAND ambush, is discussed, as well
as the forms of collaboration making up the standardization process. Bjorn
Lundqvist analyses the standardization process, looking, for example, at the
agreements and the conduct of firms prior to the enactment of a technology

collaborations are more of an antitrust problem in themselves than the
problems (such as ‘patent thickets’, ‘anticommons’, ‘royalty stacking’ and
patent/FRAND ambush) they are designed to resolve.

‘This is a valuable and thoughtful contribution to the
debate on EU competition law litigation. It is the first
book to tackle the subject as a whole and from a practical perspective, and comes
at a particularly timely moment after the publication of the Commission’s recent
proposal. Anyone practising in this area of the law should own a copy of this book.’
International Merger Policy offers a compelling
comparative assessment of domestic and regional
merger laws and procedures. Identifying important
areas of convergence and emerging best practice, it
considers existing levels of international cooperation
and identifies the key costs associated with
transnational merger review before evaluating possible
mechanisms by which they might be reduced.

‘This timely and thought-provoking collection explores a number of aspects of
the current system of corporate governance in banks, probes their limitations
and makes suggestions for further reform. It will be of particular interest to
postgraduate students and researchers, academics and policy makers in the
fields of banking or corporate governance.’
– Andrew Johnston, University of Sheffield, UK
Corporate governance in financial institutions has come under the spotlight
since the banking crisis in the UK in 2008-9. In many respects, the banking
business raises unique problems for corporate governance that are not found
in other corporate sectors. The Law on Corporate Governance in Banks is the
first work to provide a detailed survey and practical examination of key topical
issues in the corporate governance of banks and financial institutions.
Combining the insight and expertise of leading corporate lawyers in the field
with rigorous academic analysis, the book unpicks and clarifies the legal issues
that confront corporate and banking law practitioners when advising banks
and financial institutions, including: governance structure, collective board
responsibility, directors’ liability, role of shareholders, corruption control
mechanisms, remuneration, corporate accountability, and risk management.
Key features:
• An author team of senior practitioners and leading academic experts.
• Detailed treatment of all the key corporate governance issues in
financial sector.
• Comprehensive and up-to-date legislative analysis of latest reforms.

The Governance

As the volume of transactions in European financial markets continues to
grow, the use of financial collateral, be it in the form of cash, shares, bonds
or credit claims, has become a critical tool in supporting and managing risk
in financial transactions.
Geoffrey P. Miller and Fabrizio Cafaggi
This book is the first of its kind to offer a systematic examination of the whole
law relating to financial collateral. It does so in two parts. First, it explains the
law created by the Financial Collateral Arrangements (No 2) Regulations 2003,
the Directive it implemented and related legislation. Second, it examines how
financial collateral is used in practice in a range of different markets. It will
be an essential reference point for all legal practitioners operating in financial
markets.

The Law of Securities,
Commodities and Bank Accounts
Jay Cullen, University of Sheffield, UK
‘Cullen’s timely and important book demonstrates
exactly what the problem is with executive
compensation in banking and how to improve it. The
current populist approach to simply cut banker pay is
rejected in favour of a far more nuanced approach,
fully cognizant of the inefficiencies in the very
markets which value bonus share awards. The book
encourages a much-needed long-term approach to
compensation whilst also examining in an intelligent
way the flaws in our seemingly efficient markets.’
– Trevor Pugh, University of Sheffield, UK
Marek Dubovec, National Law Center for
Inter-American Free Trade and James E. Rogers
College of Law, University of Arizona, US
‘This remarkable book offers a broad and
comprehensive examination of the law of
accounts. The author has succeeded in covering an
impressive number of intricate legal questions with
unsurpassable clarity. The book brings together topics
that are rarely analyzed together, and enriches the perspective
of the reader with frequent and exact references to other legal systems.’
– José M. Garrido, LEGPS – The World Bank
In this unique study Marek Dubovec examines contemporary commercial
relationships between investors and their intermediaries – relationships based
on accounts that hold intangible rights to securities, funds, and commodity
contracts. Such accounts have replaced the traditional physical possession and
delivery of tangible objects, such as security certificates, coins, and commodities
that were previously used in commercial relationships.

NEW
Series editor: Randall S. Thomas, Vanderbilt University Law
School, US
Elgar Research Handbooks are original reference works designed to provide
a broad overview of research in a given field while at the same time creating
a forum for more challenging, critical examination of complex and often
under-explored issues within that field. Chapters by international teams of
contributors are specially commissioned by editors who carefully balance
breadth and depth. Often widely cited, individual chapters present expert
scholarly analysis and offer a vital reference point for advanced research.
Taken as a whole they achieve a wide-ranging picture of the state-of-the-art.
Making a major scholarly contribution to the field of corporate law and
governance, the volumes in this series explore topics of current concern
from a range of jurisdictions and perspectives, offering a comprehensive
analysis that will inform researchers, practitioners and students alike.
The Research Handbooks cover the fundamental aspects of corporate
law, such as insolvency governance structures, as well as hot button areas
such as executive compensation, insider trading, and directors’ duties.
The Handbooks, each edited by leading scholars in their respective fields,
offer far-reaching examinations of current issues in corporate law and
governance that are unrivaled in their blend of critical, substantive analysis,
and in their synthesis of contemporary research.
Each Handbook stands alone as an invaluable source of reference for all
scholars of corporate law, as well as for practicing lawyers who wish to
engage with the discussion of ideas within the field. Whether used as an
information resource on key topics or as a platform for advanced study,

Edited by Adolfo Paolini, University

Directors’ duties and liabilities have become the
centre of a general legal discussion following
the 2008 financial scandal that resulted in global
recession. Questions have arisen regarding the ways
in which the directors of the world’s major financial
institutions have handled their duties and how their
decisions have impacted investors, shareholders
and consumers. This detailed Handbook discusses
the nature of the relationship between a company and its directors, assessing
issues such as how duties are discharged, liabilities that may arise and what
interests directors should consider before embarking on commercial ventures.

Research Handbook on Shareholder Power
Edited by Randall S. Thomas, Vanderbilt University Law School, US

Much of the history of corporate law has concerned itself not with shareholder
power, but rather with its absence. Yet, as this Handbook shows, there have
been major shifts in capital market structure that require a reassessment of the
role and power of shareholders. This book provides a contemporary analysis
of shareholder power and considers the regulatory consequences of changing
ownership patterns around the world. Leading international scholars in
corporate law, governance and financial economics address these central issues
from a range of different perspectives including historical, contemporary, legal,
economic, political and comparative.

Corporate Social Responsibility, Private Law
and Global Supply Chains
Andreas Rühmkorf, University of Sheffield, UK
This insightful book demonstrates that private law makes a significant
contribution to the promotion of corporate social responsibility (CSR), but that
with certain changes this contribution could be better. Based on the analysis
of four substantive areas (company law/corporate governance, contract law,
consumer law and tort law), the book covers a full range of issues that are
important for CSR. These include directors’ duties, corporate reporting, the
incorporation of CSR policies into the supply chain, consumer rights and the
tortious liabilities of companies.

Corporate Social Responsibility
in Contemporary China
Simon Baughen, Swansea University, UK
The effects of globalization, together with the increase in foreign investment
and resource development within the developing world, have created
a context for human rights abuses by states whereby corporations from
the developed world are complicit. This has led to what John Ruggie has
identified as ‘governance gaps’. This book considers how these gaps may
be closed, examining: the status of corporations under international law;
the civil liability of corporations for their participation in international
crimes; and self-regulation through voluntary codes of conduct, such
as the 2011 UN Guiding Principles.

‘With Contract Law: A Comparative Introduction,
Jan Smits again demonstrates why he is one of
the best and most creative scholars in the area
of private law. Professor Smits is able to balance
breadth and depth of coverage to produce a valuable introductory book,
which helps fill a tremendous need and void in the literature. The book’s
mission as a self-described academic textbook is served at the highest level
of analysis and elucidation. Its use of a wide array of civil, common, and
international sources makes it not only a great textbook, but a valuable piece
of scholarship for novice and scholar alike.’
– Larry Di Matteo, University of Florida, US
‘Contract Law: A Comparative Introduction may be recommended to
beginners and advanced readers – both will find it very interesting and useful.
Although the author discusses all relevant issues, the book remains very
user-friendly as it explains all ideas in a comprehensive yet concise manner.
Moreover, it is written in a clear and easily understandable language that is
essential particularly for non English native speakers. Finally, the book is a
first class textbook for any comparative contract law courses.’
– Konrad Osajda, University of Warsaw, Studies & Analyses Office,
Supreme Court of Poland
Unlike most other texts – which tend either to introduce students to the
national contract law of their own country, or else to offer global and
comparative perspectives to advanced students already familiar with the
basics – this book offers a unique introduction to contract law by means of
a comparative approach. It treats contract law as a discipline that can be
studied on the basis of common principles and methods without being tied
to a particular jurisdiction or legal culture.
– Steven J. Burton, The University of Iowa, US
Rethinking Contract Law and Contract Design presents a rich array of ideas
that reassess the law and economics of contractual relations. Victor P.
Goldberg uses a transactional framework to critically analyze and re-evaluate
contract doctrine and specific legal cases. This important work examines
particular contractual precepts while conducting a detailed exercise in legal
archaeology, challenging readers to reconsider significant legal decisions by
forensic exploration of records, briefs, and other materials, including the
staple cases of textbooks and casebooks.

Law of Obligations
Geoffrey Samuel, Kent Law School, UK
and Sciences-Po, Paris, France
This comprehensive book provides the reader
with an overview of contract and tort as well as
an introduction to the law of obligations in the
civil (or continental) law tradition.
‘Professor Samuel has drawn on his extensive
knowledge of several legal systems to produce
a valuable and timely work of comparative law.
Many aspects of private law are examined from a
common law and from a civil law perspective and
in the light of modern European harmonisation
documents. This is essential reading for common lawyers seeking to
understand the civil law, for civilians seeking to understand the common law,
and offers to both groups a better understanding of their own systems.’
ok
Perfectly pitched for international students and courses with a global
outlook, Contract Law: A Comparative Introduction puts contract law in
context by discussing empirical and economic insights.
‘In this volume, Victor Goldberg reassesses a
collection of key contract law doctrines, largely
through original economic analyses of wellknown cases involving sophisticated parties. The
results are thoughtful and provocative. They
leave the impression that the law might produce
more efficient consequences if contractual
liability were more restrictive. Contracts teachers
may well teach these and other cases differently
after reading Goldberg’s essays.’
• Introduces key principles by comparing solutions from different
jurisdictions.
• Wide variety of sources including German, English, French and Dutch law,
European and international instruments, and examples from Central
and Eastern Europe and Islamic contract law.
• Discusses economic and empirical approaches where appropriate.
• Focus on legal method as well as substantive law.
• Innovative design uses text boxes, colour and graphics, making it an
attractive tool for studying.

Key features:
– Stephen Waddams, University of Toronto, Canada
‘This book presents a brilliant account of the most important and current
doctrines of tort and contract law, as well as some central aspects of unjust
enrichment and remedies. Professor Geoffrey Samuel guides the reader
with disconcerting ease and sophistication through the essential substance
of the law of obligations. With the help of legal history and theory, he also
analyses the specificity of English law as compared to the civil law and
warns against the dangers of transplanting without care categories and
concepts from one place to the other. In doing so, Professor Samuel offers
a fundamental contribution to the understanding of the currently much
debated Europeanization of private law. Law students and scholars as well as
practitioners will very much enjoy the compelling sharpness of the analysis
and the clarity of the language.’
– Franz Werro, Centre of Transnational Legal Studies, London, UK
The book is considered an extensive introduction to the western law of
obligations, but with an emphasis on English law. Arising out of the analysis
of the two legal traditions, Geoffrey Samuel raises questions about the
appropriateness of importing the obligations category into the common law.
He also highlights what has been termed the ‘harmonisation debate’; should
the law of obligations be harmonised at a European – or even international
level? The debate raises some fundamental issues not just about legal
traditions and about the law of obligations itself, but also about comparative
law theory and methodology.

A Short Introduction
to the Common Law
Geoffrey Samuel, Kent Law School, UK
and Sciences-Po, Paris, France
This book provides a short, accessible
introduction to the English common law
tradition, in particular to the civil process.
‘Geoffrey Samuel’s distinctive approach is to
present the English common law in the light of
its history and its dominant ideas. A student will
learn not only what are the major rules of private
law and civil law procedure, but will grasp the
spirit of the common law. He will thus learn why they exist in a particular
form and how common lawyers make them work. Civilian terms are used
to provide a guide for the student from a civil law system to understand
the initially strange terms and approaches of the common lawyer. This book
is clear and insightful. It should be read particularly by Masters students
and those embarking on a doctorate involving study of the common law.’
ok
– From the foreword by Malcolm A Clarke
‘This book is an important contribution to a question that has received little
analysis hitherto, namely what are, and what is the effect of, the duties imposed
on an insurer to provide information to prospective policyholders. As well as
original analysis of English, German and prospective European law, and with
insights from law and economics, it makes some key recommendations. It should
be read by all academics, policymakers, professionals and regulators with an
interest in insurance law.’
– John Birds, University of Manchester, UK.

‘Geoffrey Samuel’s A Short Introduction to the Common Law published

undoubtedly find the English common law easier to understand after having
read this book. . . Any student of the common law should make this book
an obligatory purchase.’
– Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor, The Barrister Magazine
‘With his longstanding teaching activities in civil law countries, his obvious
deep knowledge of the historical roots of civil and common law, Geoffrey
Samuel offers here a book which should be pressed into every hands across
the civil law world. Finally, we get here an introduction to the common law
truly written for civilian lawyers and students, which is easy to understand

‘Common law has remained enigmatic for lawyers from the civil law legal
culture. This book presents a wonderfully compact introduction to the English
common law and explains concisely why it is as it is today. Geoffrey Samuel
offers insightful and scholarly first-rate representation of those characteristics
which stand out for the civil law lawyer. Clarifying and supporting diagrams
are especially helpful for non-common law lawyers. Samuel’s A Short

Comparative Law and Society

Edited by David S. Clark, Willamette

Governance by regulation – rules propounded and enforced by bureaucracies
– is taking a growing share of the sum total of governance. Once thought to
be an American phenomenon, it is now a central form of state action in every
part of the world, including Europe, Latin America, and Asia, and it is at
the core of much international lawmaking. In Comparative Law and Regulation,
original contributions by leading scholars in the field focus both on the legal
dimension of regulation and on how this dimension operates in those places
that have turned to regulation to meet their obligations.
Comparative Law and Society, part of the
Research Handbooks in Comparative Law series,
is a pioneering volume that comprises 19 original
essays written by expert authors from across
the world. This innovative Handbook offers both
a history of the field of comparative law and
society and a thorough exploration of its methods,
disciplines, and major issues, presenting the most
comprehensive look into this contemporary field

Contemporary law and economics has greatly expanded its scope of inquiry
as well as its sphere of influence. The extension to many idiosyncratic topics
and issues that sometime lie outside the traditional domain of the discipline
have fostered the emergence of a new consciousness better grasped
by a comparative approach. The original contributions to this Research
Handbook provide a glimpse of the new perspectives that enrich the law
and economics methodology.
‘Extensively footnoted throughout, the book takes
its place as part of Elgar’s Research Handbooks

apparently, to cover such a broad range of
comparative law issues. The orientation is global;
the approach scholarly. This is a book which will
no doubt interest the worldwide community of law

Normalizing the State of Exception
Günter Frankenberg, Goethe University,

‘Books abound on the question whether states
of emergency can be legally controlled. But
Frankenberg’s account stands out because of his
mastery of the political and legal contexts in which
the terms of the debate about states of emergency
were framed for us – the situation of Weimar and
the constitutional reaction in postwar Germany. In addition, Frankenberg has an
astonishing command of the history of political theory from Hobbes to the present.
His innovative but scholarly analyses permit him to construct a narrative about
the potential of the rule of law to respond to emergencies that includes detailed
examinations of Schmitt, Foucault, Habermas, Agamben, and many others. His
treatments of these figures seek to draw out the genuine insights they might offer,
so that, even though none of the figures escapes the force of his criticism, his
argument will challenge the assumptions of all involved in the debate.’

Japan and Civil Jury Trials
The Convergence of Forces
Matthew J. Wilson, University of Akron, Hiroshi Fukurai,
University of California at Santa Cruz, US and Takashi Maruta,
Kwansei Gakuin University Law School, Japan
As societies around the world increasingly face complex challenges, effective
solutions are at a premium. In response, reformers have advanced varied
forms of jury systems as means of fostering positive political, economic, and
social change. Many countries have recently integrated lay participation into
their justice systems to effect fundamental societal change, advance public
policymaking, and manifest popular sovereignty. This book showcases Japan’s
successes and challenges in recently adopting a quasi-jury system for serious
criminal trials, and advocates that the convergence of various forces makes this
an ideal time for Japan to expand lay participation into the civil realm.

they have been treated in East Asian jurisdictions.

Advanced Introduction
to Comparative
Constitutional Law
Mark Tushnet, Harvard University, US
‘Professor Tushnet provides an insightful
overview of cutting-edge issues arising in
comparative constitutional law. From changes
in the conception of the separation of powers
to approaches to the adjudication of the limits
on fundamental rights, Tushnet offers both
a snapshot of the current debates as well as
a critical engagement with them. The book
manages to accomplish the daunting feat of appealing to the serious scholar
of comparative constitutional law as well as being accessible to those who
are beginning their exploration of this field. It also fuses recent scholarship
in political science literature and constitutional law in an illuminating
combination.’
– David Bilchitz, University of Johannesburg and Director,
SA Institute for Advanced Constitutional Law, South Africa
‘With this brilliant, well-composed book, Mark Tushnet once again
demonstrates his eminent scholarship and his unique combination of
constitutional theory and realism. He presents a fascinating conversation
among the leading voices in the field and illuminates some of the standard
themes and problems of comparative constitutional law [constitutionmaking, judicial review, rights and structures of government]. This is an
“Advanced Introduction” and more: an elegantly written summary of liberal
constitutionalism.’

‘In this short book, Tushnet provides an authoritative review of the growing
literature on comparative constitutional law. As the book title suggests,
this is an “advanced introduction” and requires some prior familiarity with
the topic. This book, however, is much more than a review of the existing
literature and is a must read for both newcomers and those with more
experience in the field.’

‘Mark Tushnet has drawn on his considerable knowledge of a wide variety
of constitutional arrangements, coupled with at least a decade of reflection
on current practice and likely trends. . . The work makes comparative
constitutional law eminently accessible to relative newcomers to the field.
Experienced comparativists will also find that it offers insights.’

Mark Tushnet, a world-renowned scholar of constitutional law, presents an
introduction to comparative constitutional law through an analysis of topics
at the cutting-edge of contemporary scholarship. His authoritative study
investigates constitution making, including the problem of unconstitutional
constitutional amendments; recent developments in forms of constitutional
review, including ‘the battle of the courts’; proportionality analysis and
its alternatives; and the emergence of a new ‘transparency’ branch in
constitutions around the world. Throughout, the book draws upon examples
from a wide range of nations, demonstrating that the field of comparative
constitutional law now truly encompasses the world.

Comparative Criminal Procedure
Financial Crime and Gambling
in a Virtual World
Edited by Jacqueline Ross, University of Illinois, College of Law
and Stephen Thaman, Saint Louis University, School of Law, US
Comparative Criminal Procedure explores the ways in which jury trials,
protection for fundamental rights, and plea bargaining complicate the search
for truth across a number of different legal systems. It examines alternatives to
the criminal process, including the use of intelligence operations and national
security legislation to forge a special regime for the investigation of terrorist
offenses. Expert contributions compare fundamental protections for privacy
across a range of systems; contrast the role of juries and lay assessors at trial;
and explore the role of reason-giving, screening mechanisms, and discretion in
shaping the decision-making process before, during, and after trial.

A New Frontier in Cybercrime
Clare Chambers-Jones, with Henry Hillman,
University of the West of England, UK
‘This book is a comprehensive, highly detailed review
of cybercrime and the issues raised by gambling
in virtual environments. It makes an excellent
contribution to the evolving discussion about the
risks and controls relating to these activities. I would
highly recommend it to anyone interested in financial
crime and virtual environments from an international
perspective.’
– Liz Falconer, University of the West of England, UK
In this unique book, the authors examine the relationship between real world
legislation and new advancements in technology, showing how this can lead to
loopholes in legislative protection. They draw on empirical research to highlight
the jurisprudential issues relating to economic internet crime and digital
currencies.

Mike McConville and Luke Marsh,
The Chinese University of Hong Kong
‘In this important book, two knowledgeable and
perceptive observers offer a damning indictment
of British criminal justice. McConville and Marsh
repeatedly skewer the pious pronouncements of
panglossian judges with down-to-earth views of the
assembly line. They describe a world of state-induced
guilty pleas in which defendants are subjected to
extraordinary pressure to “freely” and “voluntarily” bring about
their own convictions, and they explain how this world came into being.
These authors tell it like it is.’
– Albert W. Alschuler, The University of Chicago, US
‘McConville and Marsh mount a powerful attack on the institutions of criminal
justice: they examine a range of practices known as ‘plea-bargaining’ in the
broader context of policing and the work of the CPS, defence solicitors and the
Bar. Their detailed and historically-grounded study challenges the role of the
courts in developing and refining the procedural framework for the guilty plea
discount, and raises questions about the claim of the judiciary to be guardians of
the right to a fair trial. A disturbing book for criminal justice.’

Although the practice of disguising the illicit origins
of money dates back thousands of years, the concept
of money laundering as a multidisciplinary topic with
social, economic, political and regulatory implications
has only gained prominence since the 1980s. This groundbreaking volume offers
original, state-of-the-art research on the current money laundering debate and

Nicholas Ryder, University of the West

‘In this well-researched and thoughtful new book,
Nic Ryder makes a strong case for thinking more
about the role of white collar crime in causing the
financial crisis, and why prosecution has not been a
bigger part (particularly in the UK) of the authorities’
responses to it.’

– Peter Cartwright, University of Nottingham, UK
Concentrating on the relationship between the 2007 financial crisis and
white-collar crime in both the United States of America and the United Kingdom,
this unique book asserts that such activity was an important variable that
contributed towards the crisis. It also reveals a number of similarities and
differences in the approach towards white-collar crime emanating from
the financial crisis.

As our understanding of genetics increases, its use in criminal justice becomes

understanding and considers some potential legal, ethical and sociological issues
with the use of genetic information. Topics include rights of privacy and consent
in obtaining DNA samples, evidentiary issues in court, the impact of genetic
evidence on punishment theory and sentencing, and genetic discrimination.

Police corruption is unquestionably one of the
worst forms of corruption, as it can become a
serious security issue and undermine a state’s
legitimacy.
This single volume brings together the most informative scholarly and
practitioner contributions on the subject in recent decades. It covers major
aspects of police corruption, including its significance and impact, public
perceptions, the causes of corruption and the problem of police culture.
It details the situation in selected countries, and explores how and with
what success they have addressed the problem.

Greed, Corruption, and the Modern State
Essays in Political Economy
Corruption
Edited by Susan Rose-Ackerman, Yale University
and Paul Lagunes, Columbia University, US
Economic Analysis and International Law
the late Marco Arnone, formerly of
the Centre for Macroeconomics and Finance
Research and Leonardo S. Borlini,
Bocconi University, Italy
‘Although corruption has affected human society since
its very birth with different intensity over time, it is not
confined to any particular geographic region, country,
social or political system or culture. Recently there
has been widespread international determination
to effectively curb such crime. Corruption: Economic
Analysis and International Law by Marco Arnone and Leonardo Borlini reviews
the richness and complexity of the ongoing research on corruption and
shows the value of integrating a comprehensive economic understanding of
its consequences and a critical assessment of the several legal instruments
promoted by major intergovernmental organizations on this issue. This approach
is particularly timely because, on the bright side, this book shows that economic
crises may lead to greater social responsiveness in the face of attempts to
drain public resources through corruption and bribery. The use of a wide range
of economic models and the acute analysis of the contemporary evolution of
traditional institutions belonging to the realm of international and European law
represent two additional values of this work. Finally, the personal commitment
of both authors to scientific research and professional activity related to public
governance and anti-corruption reforms make this book a valuable source for
further thought and analysis for scholars, public servants and practitioners.’
– Giorgio Sacerdoti, Professor of International and European Law,
Bocconi University and former President of the WTO Appellate Body
and Vice President of the OECD Working Group on Corruption
What makes the control of corruption so difficult and contested? Drawing on
the insights of political science, economics and law, the expert contributors to
this book offer diverse perspectives. One group of chapters explores the nature
of corruption in democracies and autocracies, and “reforms” that are mere
facades. Other contributions examine corruption in infrastructure, tax collection,
cross-border trade, and military procurement. Case studies from various regions
– such as China, Peru, South Africa and New York City – anchor the analysis with
real-world situations. The book pays particular attention to corruption involving
international business and the domestic regulation of foreign bribery.

Edited by Tina Søreide, University of Bergen

‘“Grabbing”, as defined by Søreide and Williams,

attempts to benefit unduly at the expense of the
state, including overly zealous efforts to limit taxes
and regulatory costs, and to influence political
choices. This fascinating collection of real-world cases,
presented crisply and clearly, is organized by sector, country, political influence
and international aid. It will give reformers a context for their own efforts
and will help analysts trace general patterns and common pathologies.’

Official government policies against money laundering in the EU have been
in place for roughly 25 years, after much concerted effort and money invested.
This volume examines the anti-money laundering policy of the EU Member
States in connection to the threat of money laundering they face.
During a three-year study the authors analysed the policies in-depth by travelling
to 27 Member States to interview over a hundred people involved in the fight
against money laundering. The analysis includes an inquiry into the national
supervisory architectures, a comparison of the definitions of money laundering
used in practice, a breakdown of the role of Financial Intelligence Units
and a cost–benefit analysis of anti-money laundering policy.

The Successes and Failures
of Whistleblower Laws
‘This Handbook is testament to the value of
whistleblowing for democracy, with new research
and existing knowledge probed with fresh and urgent
questions. What is the impact of global technology on
public accountability, journalism and whistleblower
protection? If indifference is what really matters, is focus on retaliation
misplaced? What stops those in authority from heeding whistleblowers?
A vital resource for anyone fighting to protect whistleblowers anywhere to better
articulate whose interests are really at stake and what needs to be done.’
– Anna Myers, lawyer and Expert Coordinator of the Whistleblowing
International Network (WIN)
This important Handbook offers original, cutting-edge analyses of the conceptual
and practical challenges that researchers face in order to better inform the
way whistleblowing is understood and confronted by organizations, regulatory
authorities and governments.
Robert G. Vaughn, American University
Washington College of Law, US
‘Unlike other books on whistleblowing that
simply describe and analyze whistleblowing laws,
Robert Vaughn’s new book provides an in-depth
and unique historical account of the roots of the
whistleblowing movement in such disparate events
as the Mai Lai massacre, the civil rights movement,
and the experiments of Stanley Milgrim. As important,
he then uses that history to illuminate the competing
perspectives and pressures that influenced the passage and interpretation
of modern whistleblower laws. Vaughn provides a first-rate account of
the varied and complex reasons for the successes and failures of these
laws during the last forty years.’

The Sustainability of the European Social Model
EU Governance, Social Protection and Employment
Policies in Europe
Edited by Jean-Claude Barbier, Université Paris 1 Panthéon
Sorbonne, France, Ralf Rogowski, University of Warwick, UK
and Fabrice Colomb, Evry University, France
‘The response of European Union institutions to the Eurocrisis demonstrated their
fragile and failing commitment to the role of social policy in advancing European
economies and societies. The present volume, exploring the positive scope for
such policies, is therefore timely and welcome. While sharply critical of much of
what goes on at both EU and several national levels, the authors are constructive
in tone and point the way to sustainable alternatives to neoliberalism.’
– Colin Crouch, University of Warwick, UK and External Scientific Member,
Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies, Cologne, Germany
This book argues that the European Social Model can only be sustained in
the current economic crisis if social and employment policies are adequately
recognised as integral parts of European economic policy-making. The
contributing authors investigate this hypothesis through comparative evaluations
of interactions of EU economic governance with national systems of social
protection. In particular they focus on two key policy areas – social services of
general interest and the regulation of working time – as well as covering areas
such as social inclusion, active ageing policies and job quality. By combining
sociological approaches with legal analyses, the book provides unique insights

Michael Faure, Maastricht University

the Netherlands and Flemish High Council
of Environmental Enforcement (VHRM),
Belgium and Göran Skogh, formerly
University of Linköping, Sweden
‘This volume would make an excellent textbook
for students of both introductory environmental economics and introductory
environmental law. The examples of real world legal problems and
environmental policies provide the student with the context within which the
basic principles of microeconomics come alive. The scope of economic topics
covered is broad and impressive, ranging from the notion of marginal cost to
the idea of limits to growth. The authors have created a framework within
which it is possible for both law students and economics students to learn
from each other’s disciplines. A truly remarkable achievement.’
– Timothy M. Swanson, University College London, UK
‘Sometimes, one has to teach an introductory course, for instance to
civil servants, and if you should have the task to teach environmental
policy and law, this is the book to recommend. It could really not be more
straightforward. . . This is a wonderful introduction, and every conscientious
teacher of the subject can successfully build upon it.’
– Jürgen G. Backhaus, European Journal of Law and Economics
Although many books focus on law and economics, and environmental
economics, this is one of the first to combine the two topics in a fully
integrated and comprehensive manner. The authors successfully bridge the
gap between the disciplines of environmental law and traditional economics
in a lucid and highly accessible style.
The Economic Analysis of Environmental Policy and Law covers many of
the recent advances in the field and attempts to integrate some of the
most crucial legal and economic instruments which, in the authors’ view,
have not yet been subjected to proper analysis. These include zoning,
expropriation, licensing, third party liability, safety regulation, mandatory
insurance and criminal sanctions. The authors pay particular attention to the
interrelationships of these instruments and their various economic effects.
Using a comparative law and economics methodology, they are also able to
incorporate environmental law with international policy and investigate the
many diverse rules of the legal system and their implementation in different
countries. Crucially, the authors do not consider economics as the exclusive
determinant in legal rule-making. They also highlight the need for ethical
considerations and illustrate the potential limitations of pure economic
analysis.
The book assumes no prior knowledge of economics and will prove
informative and rewarding for students of law and the social and natural
sciences, especially those with an interest in environmental policy. With an
extensive reference list and detailed notes on further reading material, this
book will also serve as a stimulating introduction to the discipline of law and
economics for environmental, political and legal practitioners.

The legal aspects at the junction of interstate energy cooperation have become
increasingly important in a world that is hungry for energy security. This book
focuses on selected legal issues relating to international energy governance.
International law as it stands today is not well equipped to handle international
energy governance issues fully. This legal deficiency affects energy security
negatively. If the currently fragmented and multi-layered international energy
governance regime were streamlined for greater legal cohesiveness and
international political and economic cooperation, it would promote energy
security. Some chapters of the book take a broader view on interstate energy
cooperation, such as energy transit, energy market liberalization and energy
investment. Others focus on specific areas of such cooperation, such as trade
and energy; trade, environment and energy; and energy exploration and
maritime delimitation disputes. The book also presents an analysis of European
Union energy governance and renewable energy.

‘Van Calster, Vandenberghe and Reins have led an
impressive group of specialists from around the world
to deliver the definitive book on climate change
mitigation. Mitigation law for all sectors (energy,
industry, transport, buildings, waste, land use,
forestry), as well as all relevant mitigation instruments
(carbon trading, finance, litigation) are discussed in
great detail and with an eye on all relevant countries and regions in the world,
such as the EU, the United States, China and the other BRICS countries. This book
is a valuable source of information on mitigation law and will be the starting
point for any future research and decision-making on climate change mitigation.’
– Jonathan Verschuuren, Tilburg University, the Netherlands
Governments around the world have been trying to find ways to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions for decades. This detailed Handbook considers the
spectrum of legal and market-based instruments as well as strategies and
policies adopted around the world and suggests more effective, comprehensive
and responsive ways of managing climate change mitigation.

Environmental Constitutionalism
Edited by James R. May and Erin Daly, Widener University,
School of Law, Delaware, US
Environmental constitutionalism is a new concept for protecting local and
global environmental conditions by invoking national and subnational
constitutional law. As constitution-drafters in all legal traditions commit
to environmental stewardship, protection and sustainability, courts are
increasingly called upon to vindicate protected environmental rights in
both their substantive and their procedural aspects. Designed for judges,
advocates, and policy-makers as well as scholars in the field, this book
assembles key writings on environmental constitutionalism from around the
world, drawing attention to its contours, its challenges, and its potential for
enhancing both environmental protection and constitutional governance in
theory and context.

The History and Origin of International
Environmental Law
Edited by Peter H. Sand, Ludwig-Maximilians University, Germany
The first in an exciting new series on international environmental law, this
incisive collection of 18 seminal essays traces the evolution of the subject
from its early beginnings, through the formative years of the Stockholm
and Rio de Janeiro UN Conferences to the contemporary ‘post-modern’ era.
The articles selected provide an overview of the legal discourse that shaped
the emergence of this discipline. They also illustrate how international
environmental law – in a multitude of treaties, jurisprudence of courts and
tribunals, and a growing body of recognized customary principles – has
not only come to govern the management of our planet’s common natural
resources, but has had a profound impact on the general theory and practice
of international law.
This Handbook provides a comprehensive review of the salient content and
major developments of environmental law in transitional China. The core
concepts, basic mechanisms and key challenges of Chinese environmental law
are discussed, extending the frontier of understanding in this fundamental area.
Previous knowledge of Chinese environmental law is built upon, taking into
consideration the concerns of how to face environmental issues in the context
of economic growth. Readers will gain an in-depth understanding of the nuances
of environmental law in China from this extensive overview.

‘This is a valuable overview of the landscape
of genetic resources governance at the international
level identifying key resources, issues, rules, actors
and processes. The work’s key contribution is to
identify interactions and connections between
the different governance elements and then to
systematically consider some of the cross cutting

‘This highly informative volume, organised around a clear structure, will guide
newcomers as well as specialists through the labyrinth of what looks like, at first

of the genetic resources’ institutional complex, already covered by former studies
because of its distinctive features, this book provides the reader with updated
information and interesting insights for its understanding and management.’

Featuring an original introduction by the editors,
this important collection of essays explores the
main issues surrounding the regulation of the
environment. The expert contributors illustrate
that regulating the environment in the UK is
conceptually complex, involves a diverse range of
institutions, techniques and methodologies and
crosses geographical and national boundaries.
In the USA it is more formalised, juridical,
adversarial and formally dependent upon legal rules. The articles highlight
the fact that despite differences in the UK and the USA’s regulatory styles,
environmental regulation today has much in common with both traditions.

‘It is one of the world’s cruelest ironies that some
of the earliest effects of climate change are being
felt by indigenous populations around the world,
even though they contributed no more than trivial
amounts of the greenhouse gases that are at the root of much of the problem,
and they are so politically and economically powerless that they played no role
in the decisions that have led to their plight. At the same time, many of these
populations are victimized by certain actions designed to reduce emissions, such
as land clearing for biofuels cultivation, and restrictions on forest use. Professors
Abate and Kronk have assembled a formidable collection of experts from around
the world who demonstrate the diversity of challenges facing these indigenous
peoples, and the opportunities and challenges in using various international and
domestic legal tools to seek redress. This book will be an invaluable resource for
all those examining the legal remedies that may be available, either now or as
the law develops in the years to come.’

generations. In this groundbreaking work, Peter
Lawrence sets out the case for addressing climate

of morality, or of survival, but is in fact a mandate of justice. Drawing on a
wide range of philosophical and jurisprudential thinking, Lawrence distils core
principles of justice to animate our efforts to mitigate climate change. This is an
immensely important work, that will have a significant influence on how societies

Regional Environmental Law
Environmental law – including the pressing considerations of energy law
and climate change – is an increasingly important area of legal research
and practice. Given the growing interdependence of global society and
the significant steps being made towards environmental protection and
energy efficiency, there are few people untouched by environmental and
energy lawmaking processes.
Edited by Werner Scholtz, University of the Western Cape, South Africa
and Jonathan Verschuuren, Tilburg University, the Netherlands
At the same time, environmental and energy law is at a crossroads.
The command and control methodology that evolved in the 1960s and
1970s for air, land and water protection may have reached the limit of its
environmental protection achievements. New life needs to be injected
into our environmental protection regimes – perhaps through the concept
of sustainability in its environmental, economic and social forms. The
same goes for energy policy and law, where liberalisation, environmental
protection and security of supply are at the centre of attention. This
series seeks to press forward the boundaries of environmental and energy
law through innovative research into environmental and energy law,
doctrine and case law. Adopting a wide interpretation of environmental
and energy law, it includes contributions from both leading and emerging
international scholars.

‘For some time now, environmental enforcement networks have been
part of the very fabric of environmental law. Yet, academic research has
somewhat neglected them. This book is a game-changer. It shows just
how “smart” enforcement networks have become and indeed need to
be in the never-ending struggle for effectiveness of environmental protection:
they operate horizontally or vertically, locally and globally, top-down
and bottom-up, often through citizens engagement and always in search
for greater effectiveness. The book’s contributions from a wide range

of a fascinating new development, i.e. the increasing role of civil society

Earth Governance
Trusteeship of the Global Commons
Klaus Bosselmann, New Zealand Centre for Environmental Law,
University of Auckland, New Zealand
The predicament of uncontrolled growth in a finite world puts the global commons
– such as oceans, atmosphere, and biosphere – at risk. So far, states have not
found the means to protect what essentially is outside their jurisdiction. However
the jurisprudence of international law has matured to a point that makes global
governance beyond state-negotiated compromises both possible and desirable.
This book makes an ambitious yet well-researched and convincing case for
trusteeship governance. It shows how the United Nations together with states
can draw from their own traditions to develop new, effective regimes of
trusteeship for the global commons.

Shale Gas and the Future of Energy
Law and Policy for Sustainability
This timely book examines the role played by
regional authorities in the EU as they transition
towards renewable energy. Drawing on both academia and practice,
the expert contributors explore some of the key legal questions that
have emerged along the energy transition path. Specific attention is paid
to support mechanisms, administrative procedures for authorizing renewable
energy projects, and opportunities for allowing citizens, particularly citizens
living near renewable energy projects, to participate financially in renewable
energy production.
Edited by John C. Dernbach and James R. May, Widener University
School of Law, Delaware, US
The growth of shale gas development has led to an intense and polarizing debate
about the merit of shale gas. At the same time, and essentially independent of
shale gas development, countries around the world concluded at the 2012 U.N.
Conference on Sustainable Development that the transition to sustainability must
be accelerated. This book asks and suggests answers to a question that has not
been systematically analyzed: what laws and policies are needed to ensure that
shale gas development helps accelerate the transition to sustainability?

Stefan E. Weishaar, University of Groningen,
the Netherlands
Susan L. Sakmar
This timely book offers a comprehensive introduction
to emissions trading design. It reviews current policy
and academic debate and considers both advantages
and disadvantages of emissions trading, its design
variants and its many implementation issues, from
both a legal and economic perspective. By focusing on
the practical design and implementation elements, it
offers easily accessible insights that are found lacking
in the mainstream literature.
‘This book is nontechnical, informative, and easy
to read; a useful, suitable number of tables/figures
support the text. It is a necessary, timely addition
to any energy-related library, valuable for students
and energy researchers and professionals as a
comprehensive, up-to-date review of LNG.’

‘EU environmental law is now a dominant source
of influence in the development and application of
environmental law and policy in most Member States.
This important new study provides a fresh appraisal of
the changing nature of EU environmental legislation,
and the tensions between discretion and goals. Above all, it tackles the difficult
questions of the appropriate role and design of law in tackling current and future
environmental challenges. It should be required reading by all those concerned
with the future of environmental law, both within Europe and elsewhere, and the
authors are to be congratulated on the quality and scope of their analysis.’

This timely book provides a cutting-edge assessment
of how the dynamic ocean regions at the highest
latitudes on Earth are being managed in an era of
unprecedented environmental change. The Arctic and
Southern Oceans are experiencing transformative
environmental change as a result of climate change
and ocean acidification. As areas of unparalleled environmental, cultural and
scientific value, they are crucibles for testing how integrated, eco-systemic
governance frameworks can be developed to meet and address volatile
environmental, political and economic challenges.

The Search for Environmental Justice
As environmental law increases in importance as an area of legal
research, this series brings together some of the most current research
carried out by the IUCN Academy of Environmental Law, a global network
of environmental law scholars. Each volume in the series addresses
an important issue in the field and presents original research analysis
and assessment, along with a much-needed synthesis of the state of
environmental law. Directions as to the positive role that environmental
law can play at a global level are also emphasized. This series provides
essential reading for scholars throughout the world with an interest
in cutting edge environment-related issues, and will no doubt play an
important role in shaping future debate.

This important book unpicks the numerous meanings and interpretations of
the deceptively simple phrase ‘environmental justice’, highlighting the political,
philosophical and doctrinal components that are intrinsic to this concept. Expert
contributors consider abstract and applied discourses and discuss how notions
of justice are being applied differently across administrative law, national policy,
constitutional law, and other legal fields.

Implementing Environmental Law
Edited by Paul Martin and Amanda Kennedy, Australian Centre
for Agriculture and Law, University of New England, Australia
At the Rio +20 conference attention was focused upon the variable
effectiveness of a large range of international instruments. The IUCN also
recently began to focus upon the effectiveness of legal arrangements for
environmental governance. Both of these developments are representative
of an increasing awareness that legal environmental governance
arrangements frequently fail to achieve the desired outcomes, or give
rise to perverse and unexpected effects. The reasons why this may be
so include issues such as the limited commitment of the responsible
government or its agents, issues of corruption or incapacity, problems
arising from the choice of the governance instrument, or the design of the
law. This book tackles the challenges of implementation of environmental
law, drawing upon the expertise of an international cast of contributors and
investigations across a range of jurisdictions.

environmental sustainability. It highlights
the central importance of integrated water resources management and
cooperation in achieving sustainability. The book considers two broad
themes: how law can contribute to the sustainability of water itself and
how the law’s regulation of water can contribute to the sustainability
of life – both human life as well as that of other species in their natural
environment.

‘Faced with the challenge of studying EU law,
students and other interested parties need
guidance and accessible materials. Despite
the ground clearing of the Lisbon Treaty, the
terrain is still not properly mapped. Edward
and Lane’s completely rewritten book provides
just what’s needed. Clear, comprehensible and
comprehensive, it will be an important port of call for anyone trying to figure
out key aspects of the EU’s ever burgeoning legal order.’

‘Bearing in mind the quality of its authors, it does not come as a surprise
that this book is an outstanding piece of academic work. It is a classic which

Key features of the book include:
• Authoritative authorship combining the analysis of a senior academic
with the experience of a former judge.
• Comprehensive and wide-ranging in scope.
• Structured specifically to reflect the Treaty of Lisbon reorientation
and immediate post-Lisbon developments.
• Extensive reference to primary sources (Treaties, legislation, case law)
and to issues of national adaptation.

A fully updated and expanded new edition of a classic text, this authoritative
and wide-ranging volume provides expert analysis on the key issues across
all areas of European Union law – including its constitutional, procedural
and substantive aspects. In particular, coverage of the constitutional and
procedural elements includes: historical background and development of
the European Union; constitutional structure of the Union; the Treaties:
interrelationship and fundamental (constitutional) rules; the institutional
framework; jurisdiction of, and actions before, the Court of Justice; sources,
principles and methods of Union law.
Research Handbooks in European Law series
Comprehensive coverage of the substantive law includes: basic rules;
citizenship of the Union; the internal market; the four freedoms;
competition; economic and monetary policy; social policy; environmental
policy; commercial policy.
The editors have specially commissioned chapters in this new Handbook to
address the new legal dynamics within and between the institutions of the
EU and its member states. Among the expert contributions will be discussions
concerned with constitutional foundations, institutional balance, the
architecture of the judiciary, and the contentious issue of how to enforce EU
law. By concluding with a reflection on the future of EU institutional law, this
Handbook provides a thoroughly comprehensive and stimulating guide to some
of the most pressing issues impacting European and Constitutional law.
Precise and rich in references to the primary materials of the Treaties, the
principal legislation and the key case law of the Court of Justice, this highly
detailed and comprehensive book will be an indispensable resource for all
legal practitioners whose practice must take account of EU Law.

EU Environmental Law
European integration is the driving force behind constant evolution and
change in the laws of the member states and the institutions of the European
Union. This important series offers short, state-of-the-art overviews of many
specific areas of EU law, from competition law to consumer law and from
environmental law to labour law. While most books take a thematic,
vertical approach, others offer a more horizontal approach and consider
the overarching themes of EU law.
Distilled from rigorous substantive analysis, and written by some of the best
names in the field, as well as the new generation of scholars, these books
are designed both to guide the reader through the changing legislation
itself, and to provide a firm theoretical foundation for advanced study.
They provide an invaluable source of reference for scholars and postgraduate
students in the fields of EU law and European integration, as well as lawyers
from the respective individual fields and policymakers within the EU.

‘national’. Consequentially European environmental regulation is becoming
more complex and interrelated, making it an emerging field of study for
European law graduates, and an area of increasing exposure to the legal
profession. This book gives readers a thorough overview of core European
environmental law, with a section on the basic framework and principles,
as well as on substantive law issues giving insight into the legislation in
the different sectors and the most topical developments.

Economic and Social Integration
EU Consumer Law and Policy
Dagmar Schiek, University of Leeds, UK
The Challenge for EU Constitutional Law
Second Edition
Stephen Weatherill, Somerville College,
Oxford, UK
Consumers are expected to benefit from the
EU’s project of economic integration, enjoying
wider choice and improved quality, and yet they
need protection from the dangers that flow from
malfunctioning and unfair markets. EU consumer
law and policy is an attempt to have the best of
both worlds – a liberalised yet properly regulated
trading space for Europe. This new edition explores
all facets of the EU’s involvement in consumer law and policy and concludes
with a newly written examination of the relationship between EU and national
initiatives of market regulation – symbiosis or disruption?
‘At a time of crisis and therefore a crucial juncture
in European politics, Dagmar Schiek offers us an
inspiring vision of the potential of the European Union.
In her brilliant study, she exposes the obstacles that
economic integration has posed for achievement of
social justice, and provides a bold solution. Rejecting
more limited models of constitutionalism, she presents
a convincing alternative which is socially embedded,
allowing space for action by manifold actors at
multiple levels of governance.’
– Tonia Novitz, University of Bristol, UK
This well-researched book analyses the positioning of EU constitutional law
towards economic and social integration by contrasting liberal and socially
embedded constitutionalism.

EU Labour Law
A.C.L. Davies, Brasenose College,
University of Oxford, UK
Elgarblog
‘EU law, shaped both judicially and at the
legislative level, disrupts national labour law
– perhaps for good reasons, perhaps for bad
reasons, sometimes for reasons which are elusive.
Challenges of an intellectual and practical nature
confront those trying to pick a path through
material accumulated over several decades –
and intrigue those thinking about the future of
the European Social Model. This book offers an
insightful, thoughtful and inspiring account of the
nature(s) and purpose(s) of EU labour law and is
a hugely welcome addition to the literature.’

A Commentary

This Commentary on the WTO Agreement on
Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property
Rights (TRIPS) provides a detailed textual analysis
of TRIPS – a pivotal international agreement on
intellectual property rights.
Editor in Chief: Johanna Gibson
Consultant Editor: Lord Hoffmann
Intellectual property law attracts diverse
international attention and warrants considered
scholarship and analysis. Not only is this an
area of detailed practice and study, but also
a significant part of each citizen’s daily life.
From the question of access to products to
concerns for the creative and innovative process,
this area of law is of considerable interest
to scholars and the general public alike. Modern
intellectual property practice and scholarship is necessarily interdisciplinary,
intersecting not only with other areas of law, but also with cultural and
socio-economic approaches to knowledge. Contemporary research considers
the operation of intellectual property in the context of human rights, social,
political and economic spheres. Engaging the diversity of perspectives on
these important issues is essential to comprehensive debate, and it is this
richness of debate and interrogation to which QMJIP seeks to participate,
by publishing high quality contributions to the field.
As an extension of the Queen Mary Intellectual Property Research Institute’s
reputation as one of the foremost centres for intellectual property
research and education, QMJIP has become an important forum for quality
scholarship in this field, publishing full-length articles as well as analysis
pieces and case reports, on a quarterly basis.

EU Copyright Law
A Commentary
Edited by Irini Stamatoudi, LL.M., Ph.D.,
Attorney at Law and Paul Torremans,
University of Nottingham, UK
‘Comprehensive and up-to-date, this collection
of contributions on EU copyright law signals the
emergence of a truly European body of legal
commentary on copyright law. The authors, many
of them very distinguished, hail from 9 different
Member States. As a result, the book contains a
wealth of references not only to EU authorities
but also to national laws and decisions. Moreover, in addition to covering
general principles of European copyright, and analyzing each copyright
Directive, the book examines future prospects for copyright in the EU.’
– Jane Ginsburg, Columbia Law School, US
Presenting a comprehensive and up to date article-by-article analysis of all
EU law in the area of copyright, as well as of the underlying basic concepts
and principles, this unique book takes into account all recent legislative
amendments and pending initiatives in the context of the EU Digital Agenda,
as well as the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union.
Published as part of the Elgar Commentaries series, it discusses challenges
for the future that will underpin copyright in the years to come. It also
presents ongoing discussions in WIPO and assesses the role of copyright in
society and economy both from an EU and an international perspective. It
is a thorough and in-depth analysis from a team of leading experts in the
field, which combines aspects of theory and practice and places copyright in
perspective.

International Copyright Law is a complex and evolving field. Unlike national
copyright laws, it is an edifice that consists of interlocking international
instruments and agreements, the cornerstone of which is the Berne
Convention of 1886.
This ground-breaking casebook from two of the leading lights in the field,
provides a comprehensive and comprehensible account of international
copyright law and its neighbouring rights. Taking an issue-based approach,
it facilitates a deep and nuanced understanding of the subject, using
judiciously selected extracts from cases, analytical texts, and the texts of the treaties themselves to
draw together the multiple threads between the instruments that have shaped the current set of
international norms, from the Berne Convention, and the Rome Convention of 1961, through to the
WIPO Copyright Treaty and the TRIPS Agreement.

US and EU perspectives integrated throughout

Indigenous Intellectual Property
A Handbook of Contemporary Research
Edited by Matthew Rimmer, The Australian National University College
of Law and ACIPA, Australia
This Handbook considers the international struggle to provide for proper and just
protection of Indigenous intellectual property. Leading scholars consider legal and
policy controversies over Indigenous knowledge in the fields of international law,
copyright law, trademark law, patent law, trade secrets law, and cultural heritage.
This collection examines national developments in Indigenous intellectual
property from around the world. As well as examining the historical origins of
conflicts over Indigenous knowledge, the volume examines new challenges to
Indigenous intellectual property from emerging developments in information
technology, biotechnology, and climate change.
Edited by Dev Gangjee, London School of Economics, UK
Provenance matters like never before. Legal regimes regulating the use
of Geographical Indications (GIs) protect commercially valuable signs on
products – such as Darjeeling and Champagne – which signal the link to their
regions of origin. Such regimes have been controversial for over a century.
A rich, interdisciplinary work of scholarship, this Research Handbook explores
the reasons for and consequences of GIs existing as a distinct category within
intellectual property (IP) law. Historians, geographers, sociologists, economists
and anthropologists join IP specialists to explore the distinguishing feature
of GIs, that certain products are linked or anchored to specific places.

This three-volume collection comprises a selection of research articles

of this form of product designation, together with the various forms of
legal protection of geographical indications, both national and international.
It contains a number of contributions that examine the potential impacts
of geographical indications in developing countries, which explore this form
of marketing through case studies.

Intellectual Property and Private International Law
Edited by Paul Torremans, University of Nottingham, UK
This collection, made possible by the recent convergence of intellectual
property and private international law as critical disciplines, brings together
the most important papers on these now linked subjects. More and more
issues of private international law arise in the area of intellectual property,
and the articles selected chart the route that both disciplines have covered
together, discussing both bridges built and ‘dead-ends’ reached.

novices. The book also masterfully blends theoretical analysis and practical
considerations on the topic. The author has to be commended for conceiving
this well-designed and thorough book on a topic whose importance is destined
to continue to grow in future years.’
– Irene Calboli, Marquette University
Law School and National University of Singapore
‘Michael Blakeney’s book is an excellent guide to the dizzying complexity
of protecting geography-based brands in the EU. Call them appellations,
designations of origin, or GIs, any practitioner in this area of law will want
Blakeney’s book in his or her library.’
– Justin Hughes, Loyola Law School, US
The Protection of Geographical Indications examines from a practitioner’s
perspective the European laws concerning the protection of geographical
indications and geographical trade marks. The book expertly annotates
the 2012 European regulation on quality schemes for agricultural products
and foodstuffs, the proposed amendments to the Community Trade Marks
Regulation on certification marks and the new Customs Regulation which deals

ATRIP Intellectual Property series
Series editor: Tana Pistorius, Department of Mercantile Law,
University of South Africa
Primer on International
Copyright and Related Rights
Jørgen Blomqvist, University of
Copenhagen, Denmark
‘International copyright and related rights take
on an ever more important role. These areas are
known for their complexity, but in this excellent
addition to legal science Jørgen Blomqvist
simplifies the essence of these areas. The book
provides a complete primer to these areas and
it is written as a narrative that draws the reader
into the topic. One becomes attracted to its
complexities and their implications. This book is essential reading
for all those that never thought of becoming copyright aficionados.’
– Paul Torremans, Professor of Intellectual Property Law,
University of Nottingham, UK
The ATRIP series present the fruit of annual meetings held by the
International Association for the Advancement of Teaching and Research in
Intellectual Property (www.atrip.org). Yielding unique opportunities for IP
scholars from a global community to explore together the different facets
of one overarching topic, the essence of those meetings is captured in the
edited compilation of selected contributions contained in the volumes.
Rather than employing a traditional, compartmentalized view of the different
areas of IP, the ATRIP series typically apply a horizontal approach, cutting
across the usual boundaries of legal categorisation, with the aim to uncover
hidden commonalities, and accentuate the need for differentiation where
that is called for. As ATRIP counts among its members leading IP scholars
from all parts of the world, and actively encourages participation of highly
talented young researchers, the panel of authors contributing to the volumes
does not only guarantee excellence, but also represents a full and vibrant
picture of contemporary, high-level IP research in an international setting.

Intellectual Property and General Legal Principles
Is IP a Lex Specialis?
Information Environmentalism
Edited by Graeme B. Dinwoodie, University of Oxford, UK
A Governance Framework
for Intellectual Property Rights
Robert Cunningham, University
of Western Australia
Information Environmentalism applies four
environmental analytical frameworks – ecology,
‘the commons’, public choice theory, and welfare
economics – to the information environment.
The book neatly captures the metaphorical
relationship between the physical environment and
the information environment by alluding to the
environmental philosophy of ‘social ecology’ and the emergent informational
discourse of ‘cultural environmentalism’. The book aims to develop, refine and
integrate the theoretical foundations of cultural environmentalism based on
the Dewey premise that ‘there is nothing so practical as a good theory’. It is also
built upon the proposition that the success of the environmental movement
can be traced directly to the analytical frameworks of ecology, ‘the commons’,
public choice theory and welfare economics. In the digital age, the regulation of
information will have a critical impact upon the manner in which human beings
conduct their lives, and the manner in which society functions more generally.
In this sense, the book injects some gravitas into an issue that will become
increasingly pressing throughout the 21st century.

The rule of lex specialis serves as an interpretative method to determine
which of two contesting norms should be used to govern. In this book, the
lex specialis label is broadly applied to intellectual property and connects
a series of questions: what is the scope of intellectual property law? What
is the relationship between intellectual property law and general legal
principles? To what extent are intellectual property laws exceptional?
Drawn together by leading IP scholar Graeme Dinwoodie, these questions
and others are answered carefully and reflectively by a team of expert
international contributors.

Methods and Perspectives
in Intellectual Property
Edited by Graeme B. Dinwoodie,
University of Oxford, UK
The diversity of methods used and perspectives
displayed in intellectual property law scholarship
is now quite vast. This book brings together
scholars from around the globe to discuss these
methods and provide insights into how they are
best used.
Methods and Perspectives in Intellectual
Property portrays the multiplicity of approaches
available to a scholar of IP, and demonstrates how our understanding of
intellectual property law is enriched by, among other things, use of historical,
comparative and empirical analysis. The book highlights the emergence of
law and economics in the US as one of the dominant paradigms through
which to consider intellectual property law, but also illustrates how learning
may usefully be imported from other fields, such as law and society, political
economy, and international relations, as well as less obvious quarters such as
ethics and happiness research..

Innovation and Intellectual

Strategies, Contexts and Challenges
Edited by Ken Shao, University of Western
Australia and Xiaoqing Feng, China University

‘This innovative book is essential reading for those
who are interested in China’s IP and innovation
strategies. A lot has been written about China’s
IP laws and their rapid evolution over the last
two decades. China is also developing a national
innovation strategy and the substantial merit of this
book is that it offers an in-depth analysis of both those elements and, even more
importantly, of the way in which they interact. That latter aspect is needed, but
found rarely.’

Towards Algorithmic Justice
Danny Friedman
Legal conflicts between trademark holders, social media providers and internet
users have become manifest in light of wide scale, unauthorised use of the
trademark logo on social media in recent decades. Arguing for the protection
of the trademark logo against unauthorised use in a commercial environment,
this book explores why protection enforcement should be made automatic.
A number of issues are discussed including the scalability of litigation on a caseby-case basis, and whether safe harbour provisions for online service providers
should be substituted for strict liability.

‘While many have articulated needs of particular
communities which they argue intellectual
property should be shaped to serve, few have
attempted to flesh out a theory under which
intellectual property doctrine should be built
from the ground up to promote social justice. Lateef Mtima, a pioneer
in that endeavor, has now edited a collection of essays that provides
crucial additional perspectives – perspectives that appropriately focus on
empowerment and entrepreneurship. These essays are essential reading for
everyone who has ever wondered whether and how intellectual property

As innovation processes become increasingly collaborative, new relationships

new legal structures that allow horizontally integrated, open and shared
use of intellectual property (IP). This book examines the fundamental issues
regarding the collaborative use of IP and discusses emerging trends including:
the interpretation of FRAND terms in the context of standard essential patents;
secondary liability of technology providers; contractual arrangements in
trademark law and the treatment of IP issues in specific emerging industries.

created by the employee, officer liability issues relating to infringement, postemployment confidentiality and non-compete agreements, and inadvertent

‘The book illustrates, in a very instructive manner, the proceedings before the
European Patent Office (EPO), specifically with regard to opposition and appeal
procedures. It guides the reader on what to avoid when drafting and prosecuting
European patent applications, and will help practitioners, both in industry and

The highly-regarded authors of this important work explore the constitutional,

Trademark Protection
and Territoriality Challenges
in a Global Economy
Protection of intellectual property rights (IPRs) serves a dual role in economic
development. While it promotes innovation by providing legal protection of
inventions, it may retard catch-up and learning by restricting the diffusion of
innovations. Does stronger IPR protection in a developing country encourage
technology development in or technology transfer to that country? This book
aims to address the issue, covering diverse forms of IPRs, diverse actors in
innovation, and diverse cases from Asia and Latin America.

Access to Information

TRIPS reflects the dominant view that enforcing
strong intellectual property rights is necessary to
solve problems of trade and development. The global
ensemble of authors in this collection ask, how can
TRIPS mature further into an institution that supports
a view of economic development which incorporates the human rights ethic
already at work in the multilateralist geopolitics driving international relations?
In particular, how can these human rights, seen as encompassing a whole ‘new’
set of collective interests such as public health, environment, and nutrition,

address these questions by describing recent successes, while others propose
projects in which these human rights can provide ethical ground for influencing
the forces at play in development policies.
21st Century Challenges in Intellectual
Property and Knowledge Governance
Edited by Dana Beldiman, Bucerius
Law School, Germany and University
of California, Hastings College of Law, US
‘This is an important book that brings together
leading scholars from Europe and the United
States to explore the access challenge in
intellectual property law. It reframes the debate
by focusing on the critical role of timely access to
information in innovation-based economies. Well worth the read.’

The Moral Dimensions
of Intellectual Property Rights
Genetic Resources and

Steven Ang, Nanyang Technological University,
Singapore
Case Studies and Conflicting Interests
Edited by Tania Bubela
and E. Richard Gold
‘Professor Ang’s thoughtful book is the first
comprehensive analysis of the philosophic
underpinnings of the morality clauses contained in the
principal IPR statutes. Morality issues in intellectual
property are becoming increasingly important as
a consequence of the recent debates over access
to proprietary medicines, the implications of DNA
patenting for medical treatment and the impact of
IPRs on food security. Professor Ang’s book provides
an important touchstone for consideration of these issues.’

Intellectual Property Rights are subject to a high degree of protection,
exploitation and litigation in the modern commercial environment. But what role
does morality have to play in these exchanges? That is the question posed and
eloquently examined within the contours of this book.

KEY TITLE
Advanced Introduction
to Cultural Economics
Comic Art, Creativity and the Law
Ruth Towse, Bournemouth University
and University of Glasgow, UK
Marc H. Greenberg, Golden Gate University,
School of Law, US
‘Ruth Towse presents a fabulous, broad ranging
overview of cultural economics. The book explores
the forefront of knowledge, is easy to read and
reveals sound judgement. I highly recommend the
book to anyone concerned about the relationship
of culture to society – as everyone should!’
‘An intellectual tour de force and a compelling read
. . . Far beyond a practical guide to the law of comics
(though it is that too), Greenberg’s book touches on
the nature of creativity, the basis for IP law, and the
history of this fascinating medium.’
– Professor Mark A. Lemley, Director,
Stanford Law School, US
The creation of works of comic art, including graphic
novels, comic books, cartoons and comic strips,
and political cartoons, is affected, and at times limited, by a diverse array of
laws, ranging from copyright law to free speech laws. This book examines how
this intersection affects the creative process, and proposes approaches that
encourage, rather than limit, that process in the comic art genre. Attention to
the role comic art occupies in popular culture, and how the law responds to that
role, is also analyzed.

‘Ruth Towse has provided an indispensable guide and companion for anyone
seeking an informed grasp of the economics of the cultural sector. In a series
of wonderfully clear and well-organized chapters on themes including the
creative economy, cultural policy, artists’ labour markets and copyright,
and characterized throughout by insightful references to key theories, players
and institutions, this book skillfully lays out and explains the fundamental
and distinctive economic features of artistic and cultural industries.
A valuable resource and timely contribution to the thinking of an emerging
generation of researchers and scholars.’

Law, Technology and
Public Contestations in Europe
Naveen Thayyil, Indian Institute of Technology,
New Delhi, India
This book examines the EU regulatory framework
in the Genetic Modification of agriculture and
food to see how adequately EU law treats serious
contestations about the development and use of
GMOs. Since linkages between law, technology
and public contestations could have a crucial dimension in the shaping of
democratic societies, the space EU law provides for publics outside of the
scientific experts to shape the regulation of GMOs becomes significant. By
examining the employment of the precautionary principle and (the advices from)
public bioethics committees in GMO regulation, this book examines the policy
claim of public participation as a mechanism to represent and mediate public
contestations about the use and regulation of GMOs.

‘Given the provenance, this book was always going to
be excellent, but it exceeded my highest expectations.
It’s one of those rare works that combine true
scholarship with great imagination and ends up
also a real pleasure to read. The breadth of analysis
is remarkable and the modelling for better futures is superb. It’s more than
a must read book; it is a must heed commentary, a blueprint for better public
health that would be perilous to ignore.’
– Charles Medawar, Founder Social Audit and author
of Power and Dependence: Social Audit on the Safety of Medicines
The pharmaceutical industry exists to serve the community, but over the years
it has engaged massively in corporate crime, with the public footing the bill.
This readable study by experts in medicine, law, criminology and public health
documents the problems, ranging from false advertising and counterfeiting
to corruption, waste and overpricing, with unacceptable pressures on doctors,
politicians, patients and the media. Uniquely, the book goes on to present
a realistic and worldwide solution for the future, with positive policies
encouraging honest dealing as well as partial privatization of enforcement
and greater emphasis on creative research to develop the medicines that
society needs most.

This timely book investigates the concept of
innovation and illustrates the crucial role that patent
strategies play within processes of pharmaceutical
innovation. Drawing on extensive country and
company case studies, it identifies the key issues
relevant to the revival of local pharmaceutical industries. Based on an
understanding of the post-TRIPS environment and case studies of national
innovation strategies, it specifically addresses an important question – to what
extent can lessons from national experiences be transferred to current policy
developments for innovation in the pharmaceutical industry in a developing
country context?

The Internet has brought about unprecedented
changes to modern life, opening up the question
of how to design and apply legal rules in a connected
world. This Handbook provides an overview of the
latest developments and controversies in European

The Handbook questions the extent to which the

and institutions. It includes sections that correspond to the most disputed areas,
looking consecutively at policy and governance, copyright, private international
law, e-commerce, consumer protection and citizens and their position on the
Internet. By highlighting the challenges that European law and policy-makers
face when attempting to regulate the Internet, this Handbook raises important
issues regarding free speech, accessibility and privacy.

This book explores the challenges that emerging
technologies create for traditional regulatory
approaches. The unique characteristics of emerging
technologies – including their diverse applications,
the wide-ranging concerns that can be raised by
new technologies, the need for public engagement,
and the issue of effective coordination between
governance players – create the need for new governance approaches.
The contributors identify innovative new approaches to the governance
of emerging technologies in an environment where changes in technologies
can out pace the corresponding regulatory frameworks.

Edited by Martin Scheinin, European
University Institute, Italy
Edited by Olivier De Schutter, Catholic
University of Louvain, Belgium
This volume offers a selection of those major
contributions which have shaped debate in the
field of economic, social and cultural rights. The
broad range of discussion includes: the nature of
economic, social and cultural rights and the ability
of courts to protect them; the effectiveness of nonjudicial protective mechanisms at both the universal
and the domestic level; ways of measuring whether
states do enough to ‘progressively realize’ these rights; the impact of trade
and investment liberalization, and of economic globalization generally, on the
fulfilment of such rights; and the role of economic, social and cultural rights in
development.
24 articles, dating from 1978 to 2012
Contributors include: A.R. Chapman, M.C.R. Craven, V. Dankwa, C. Flinterman,

of increased attention since the events of 11th
September 2001. Drawing on works that were

Migration and Freedom
NEW KEY TITLE
NEW
Mobility, Citizenship and Exclusion
Brad K. Blitz, University of Middlesex, UK
and The Graduate Institute, Switzerland
Advanced Introduction
to International Human Rights
Law
‘An advance, both analytically and empirically, for
migration studies. With a base in international law
and political theory, Blitz admirably opens up the
ambiguous question of freedom of movement in
relation to the restrictions still imposed by national
borders and sovereignty, and the difficulties migrants
face turning movement into successful settlement.
Focusing on Europe, and migration experiences
internal and external to the EU, as well as within and across national boundaries,
the book significantly challenges current immigration paradigms with a series of
atypical and provocative case studies.’
Dinah L. Shelton, George Washington
University Law School, US
‘Written by a leading scholar in the field, this book
provides an insightful analysis of the normative
principles comprising this ever-expanding subject.
Equally valuable is the extensive overview of the
practice of universal and regional judicial and
quasi-judicial institutions that apply and help
create contemporary international human rights
law. Scholars and practitioners alike will find this
book to be an indispensable resource in their work.’
– Adrian Favell, Sciences Po, Paris, France
– Judge Thomas Buergenthal, George Washington University Law School, US
‘Professor Shelton blends basic, essential information on human rights
with just the right amount of material on the larger frameworks – ethical,
historical, institutional and political – that are critical to any dynamic
understanding of the ways in which the ideas and practices of human rights
have been shaped and take concrete form today. The result is a very welcome
and greatly needed book, which will be extremely useful as both a reference
text and a teaching tool.’
– Paolo Carozza, University of Notre Dame, US
In this landmark text, Dinah L. Shelton offers an insightful overview of the
current state of international human rights law: its norms, institutions and
procedures, both global and regional. Providing an invaluable entry point to
this complex area of the law, as well as an insightful reference for seasoned
experts, the book will prove a useful resource for professors and practitioners
of international law. It will also serve as a stimulating introductory text for
both undergraduate and postgraduate courses on human rights.
Key features include:
• Comprehensive coverage presented in an accessible style, structured
into short, focused chapters.
• A rounded, interdisciplinary approach which places the law in context.
• Exploration of both practical and theoretical aspects.
• Balanced coverage with attention to both regional and global
organizations, as well as probing current challenges.
• Written with the authority of an insider.

Retracing the rationale for the juxtaposition of private and public rights of access

In the climate-pressed Anthropocene epoch, nothing could be more urgent
than fresh engagements with the fractious relationships between ‘humanity’,
law and the living order. This collection draws together theoretical reflections,
doctrinal analyses and insights drawn from rights-based praxis to offer
thoughtful – and at times provocative – engagements with the limitations
of law as it faces the complexities of contemporary socio-ecological life-worlds
in an age of climate crisis.

Interrogating Growth
Janet Dine, Queen Mary, University of London, UK
The neo-liberal economic paradigm, that predicates deregulation, privatisation
and the liberalisation of markets, is perilous. This book examines the uneven
balance of power between states, individuals, multinational corporations, the
markets and international institutions that is intrinsic to neo-liberal economic
practice, and the problems it has caused. Alternative proposals are considered
which could ameliorate the inequality which is catalysed by aggressive capitalism
– but the author demonstrates that most of them are delayed, weak responses.
She concludes that regulation of the financial sector is crucial, the inequality
between States and individuals must be narrowed by allowing developing
countries significant ‘policy space’, and radical reform of corporate governance is
needed to stop the proliferation of large business which have no accountability.

Terrorism in East and West Africa
The Under-focused Dimension
Nick Ridley, London Metropolitan
University, UK
‘Terrorism in East and West Africa provides a
highly interpretative analysis of under-focusing in
intelligence assessment. Essential reading for students
of terrorism and anti-terrorist practitioners.’
– Barry Rider, Jesus College, University
of Cambridge, UK
This timely book draws upon the author’s experience
as a former intelligence analyst, to give an account of terrorism in East and
West Africa in the first two decades after the 9/11 attacks. It analyses why there
is an incorrect strategic approach to this threat and will serve as a valuable
compendium detailing terrorist groups and their activities in Africa to those
studying terrorism.

International Law series
Research Handbooks in International Law series
This major series successfully brings together the most important papers
and scholarly research in the ever-expanding field of International Law.
Each volume is edited by a distinguished and authoritative expert and
presents a critical synthesis of essential classic work and vital contemporary
pieces, prefaced by an original introduction. From the History and Theory of
International Law to the critical topics of Criminal Law and Humanitarian Law,
as well as areas such as the Law of the Sea, Cultural Heritage Law and Sports
Law, this landmark series forms an essential library and indispensable guide
to the past and current literature on International Law.
This highly original series offers a unique appraisal of the state-of-the-art
of research and thinking in international law. Taking a thematic approach,
each volume, edited by a prominent expert, covers a specific aspect
of international law or examines the international legal dimension of a
particular strand of the law. A wide range of sub-disciplines in the spheres of
both public and private law are considered, from international environmental
law to international criminal law, from international economic law to the
law of international organisations, and from international commercial law to
international human rights law. The Research Handbooks comprise carefully
commissioned chapters from leading academics as well as those with an
emerging reputation. Taking a genuinely international approach to the law,
and addressing current and sometimes controversial legal issues, as well
as affording a clear substantive analysis of the law, these Handbooks are
designed to inform as well as to contribute to current debates.

This timely Research Handbook contains an analysis of various legal questions
concerning cyberspace and cyber activities and provides a critical account

of fundamental international law principles to cyberspace such as sovereignty,
jurisdiction, state responsibility, individual criminal responsibility, and
intellectual property rights. In addition to this, they explore the application
of international law rules to cyber terrorism, cyber espionage, cyber crime,
cyber attacks and cyber war and discuss the cyber security policies
of international and regional institutions.

Beginning about a century ago, but with a
dramatic acceleration of the process in the
final decades of the 1900s, international courts
and tribunals have taken a prominent place
in the enforcement of international law, the
maintenance of international peace and security

rights. This book addresses the great diversity of these institutions, their
structures and legal frameworks and their contribution to the international

‘The intellectual frontlines of the coming skirmishes along this new frontier
will doubtless be populated by the readers of this Handbook of Space Law.
Just like the book offers a multi-angular approach to the various main issues
involved, the increasing diversity and audaciousness of the entrepreneurs in the
emerging space arena will require a matching multi-dimensional cast of space
lawyers.’
– Taken from the Foreword by Rusty Schweickart, Apollo 9
Edited by James A.R. Nafziger
Handbook of Space Law addresses the legal and regulatory aspects of activities
in outer space and major space applications from a comprehensive and
structured perspective. The Handbook fundamentally addresses the dichotomy
between the state-oriented character of international space law and the
increasing commercialization and privatization of space activities.

Research Handbook
on the Law of Treaties
Research Handbook on Transnational Labour Law
Edited by Adelle Blackett, McGill University, Canada and Anne Trebilcock,
University of Paris Nanterre-La Défense, France
Edited by Christian J. Tams, University of
Glasgow, Antonios Tzanakopoulos, University
of Oxford, UK and Andreas Zimmermann,
University of Potsdam, Germany
This Handbook provides an authoritative treatment
of fundamental issues in international treaty law.
Identifying key challenges facing the modern law
of treaties, the Handbook addresses the current
regime and comments on potential directions of the
law. Rather than an article-by-article commentary
on provisions applicable to treaties, the Handbook offers an innovative study
of their spatial, personal and temporal dimensions and of the tensions that
arise due to the need for both flexibility and certainty in treaty relations. It
analyses the interaction between treaty regimes and potential ruptures, as well
as the expansion of treaty law to international organisations, corporations and
individuals. Each chapter includes an ‘agenda for research’, highlighting areas
where future work could yield significant results.

Research Handbook on the Theory and Practice
of International Lawmaking
Edited by Catherine Brölmann, University of Amsterdam
and Yannick Radi, Leiden University, the Netherlands
Research Handbook on
International Law and Terrorism
The global landscape has changed profoundly over the past decades. As a result,
the account of the making of international law based on the traditional theory of
sources is increasingly challenged. This Handbook offers a guide to the theory and
practice of international law‐making today. It takes stock at both the conceptual
and the empirical level of the instruments, processes, and actors involved in the
making of international law. It contains essays by leading scholars on key aspects
of international law-making and on law-making in the main issue areas, with an
interest in classic processes as well as new developments and shades of normativity.
Edited by Ben Saul, University of Sydney,
Australia
‘The 40 experts assembled by Ben Saul who address
the many-faceted legal issues connected to the everexpanding meaning of “terrorism” are remarkable.
Even after 50 years of scholarship on the subject, a
book like this one is both relevant and useful.’

This Handbook brings together leading scholars
and practitioners to examine the prolific body of international laws governing
terrorism. It exhaustively covers the global response to terrorism in transnational
criminal law, the international law on the use of force, international humanitarian
law, international human rights law, the law of State responsibility, the United
Nations Security Council, General Assembly, UN specialised bodies, and regional
organisations. It also addresses special legal issues in dealing with terrorism
such as gender, religion, victims of terrorism, weapons of mass destruction, and
customary law.

Migration is a complex and multifaceted issue, and
the current legal framework suffers from considerable

offers a comprehensive take on the intersection of
law and migration studies and provides strategies for
better understanding the potential of international legal
norms in regulating migration. Authoritative analyses
by the most renowned and knowledgeable experts in the field focus on important
migration issues and challenge the current normative framework with new ways of

The specially commissioned chapters in the Handbook explore the emergence
of transnational labour law as a field, along with its contested contours. The
expansion of traditional legal methods, such as treaties, is juxtaposed with
the proliferation of contemporary alternatives such as indicators, framework
agreements and consumer-led initiatives. Key international and regional
institutions are studied for their coverage of such classic topics as freedom of
association, equality, and sectoral labour standard-setting, as well as for the space
they provide for dialogue. The volume underscores transnational labour law’s
capacity to build bridges, including on migration, climate change and development.
Edited by Kim Talus, University
of Eastern Finland
International energy law is an elusive but important
concept. There is no body of law called ‘international
energy law’, nor is there any universally accepted
definition for it, yet many specialised areas of
international law have a direct relationship with energy
policy. The Research Handbook on International Energy
Law examines various aspects of international energy
law and offers a comprehensive account of its basic
concepts and processes.

Compulsory Jurisdiction
in International Law
Jean d’Aspremont, University of Manchester, UK
and University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Vanda Lamm, Institut de Droit International
‘Jean d’Aspremont is one of the more thoughtful and creative international
legal academics of his generation. In this volume of essays, he aims to explore
how the ‘invisible college of international lawyers’ (to use a famous phrase)
works, based on the idea that insight into the way international lawyers
work will also tell us something of great value about international law itself.
The result is sometimes compelling, sometimes controversial, and invariably
thought-provoking: a must-read for the self-reflective international lawyer.’
– Jan Klabbers, University of Helsinki, Finland
‘Law does not have the seamless consistency of mathematics or moral
philosophy; and lawyers need to be aware of its limitations. Many lawyers
have quoted Emerson’s great dictum that ‘foolish consistency is the hobgoblin
of little minds’, but few have had the courage to act on it. Here, d’Aspremont
offers a principled defence of a position that is not only the unavoidable
fate of the international lawyer but also the best hope for the rational
development of international law.’

Advanced Introduction
to International Conflict
and Security Law
NEW KEY TITLE
Advanced Introduction to
International Humanitarian Law
Nigel D. White, University of Nottingham, UK
Robert Kolb, University of Geneva,
Switzerland
‘A concise and brilliantly written journey through
the most challenging aspects of the contemporary
laws of war: the distinction between international
and non-international armed conflicts, between
combatants, fighters and civilians in asymmetric
warfare and the so-called “war on terror”,
the complex relationship between IHL and
international human rights law, the geographical
scope of the battlefield in times of cyber warfare,
private military companies and targeted killings by armed drones.’
– Manfred Nowak, Vienna University, Austria
and Former UN Special Rapporteur on Torture
‘Robert Kolb considers that this is not an introduction for the beginner.
Indeed, those seeking a descriptive summary of all the rules of humanitarian
law should consult another book or the applicable conventions. For all
others, however, this also an inductive, refreshing, committed, yet nuanced
introduction, focusing in depth on a few, central issues, and written by
one who does not only master this branch of international law, but also
the relevant legal, political and historical contexts.’
– Marco Sassòli, University of Geneva, Switzerland
‘A fascinating and inspiring presentation and discussion of the most crucial
and controversial features of International Humanitarian Law with respect
to its application in contemporary armed conflicts.’
– Professor Fausto Pocar, President, International Institute of Humanitarian Law,
Sanremo, Italy and Judge and former President, ICTY,
The Hague, the Netherlands
This innovative book provides a thought-provoking introduction to
international humanitarian law. Robert Kolb explores the field through
questions – which are at times challenging and controversial – in order to get
to the very essence of the subject and give a fresh perspective. The result is an
exposition both of the law as it stands, through its written and unwritten rules,
and also of the uncertainties, gaps, controversies and practical problems that
have arisen. IHL is revealed as a living tool, an ever-adapting means to an everremaining need of protection during times of armed conflict.
‘This is a very welcome publication by Professor
Nigel White, an established expert in international
conflict and security law. It is an excellent
introduction to this area of law. The book is
accessible and provides a comprehensive treatment
of the subject matter. It represents a distinct
contribution by offering a succinct but incisive
appraisal of the law and practice in this area
and should serve as an excellent source of reference for advanced students,
academics, and practitioners.’
– Surya P. Subedi OBE, UN Special Rapporteur for human rights in Cambodia
‘Professor White’s book is a helpful introduction for students to some of the
most important legal controversies of our times. From 19th century self-defense
doctrine to cyber war, the book covers the relevant topics in an accessible way,
providing a good starting place for further research.’
– Mary Ellen O’Connell, University of Notre Dame, US
‘The international law relating to state violence has developed in a fragmented
manner. Nigel White offers an original and coherent analysis that guides us
through the complex area of conflict and security. The book lucidly charts
the rocky legal terrain, but it does not shy away from the political context,
addressing also the legitimacy and effectiveness of the rules. This is an
accessible and insightful volume.’
– Professor Hilary Charlesworth, Australian National University
Advanced Introduction to International Conflict and Security Law provides a
concise and insightful guide to the key principles of international law governing
peacetime security, the use of force, conflict and post-conflict situations.
Nigel D. White explores the complex legal regimes that have been created
to control the level of armaments, to limit the occasions when governments
can use military force to mitigate the conduct of warfare and to build peace.
Key features:
• A comprehensive survey of the relevant international law.
• In-depth coverage written in an accessible style, structured into short,
focused chapters.
Key features:
• A combination of law, practice and politics that introduces the reader
to the complexities of the law.
• Focus on key questions, exploring the whole system of law and
its practical working.
• Detailed coverage of international legal regimes not normally gathered
together in one place.
• Covers the main principles, sources of law, and implementation.
• Concise and accessible, while taking a rigorous approach.

Acclaim for the first edition:
‘The authors form an unparalleled triumvirate who successfully draw on their
complementary legal-economic experiences from policymaking, practitioner
expertise and academic scholarship to comprehensively examine contingent
protection.’
– Chad P. Bown, The World Bank, US
‘The book is a tour de force and will become the standard reference work for
scholars, policy makers, and practitioners specializing in these areas.’
– Michael Trebilcock, University of Toronto, Canada
Described in its first edition as a ‘tour de force’, and now in a second, updated
edition, this important book provides an authoritative and comprehensive,
interdisciplinary analysis of the three most used contingent protection
instruments; anti-dumping, countervailing measures, and safeguards.
Now with the addition of a fourth author, Thomas Prusa, the book remains
the first and only book to offer a unified and comprehensive practical analysis
of both the economic rationale and the complex legal rules underpinning
these three measures. With extensive analysis of the case-law that has
developed in the intervening years since the first edition, it will simply
continue to be the standard reference work for legal practitioners, trade
policy analysts and scholars in this field.

Advanced Introduction
to International Tax Law
Reuven S. Avi-Yonah, University of Michigan
Law School, US
Advanced Introduction to International Tax Law
provides a concise yet wide-ranging overview of the
key issues surrounding taxation and international
law from a world authority on international tax.
Systems of taxation deviate between jurisdictions
and contrasting, income based levies on both
individuals and enterprises are implemented
depending on the nature or source of income.
This dynamic book explores the nuances of the varying taxation systems,
offering expert insight into the scope, reach and nature of international tax
regimes, as well as acting as an excellent platform for understanding how
the principles of jurisdiction apply to tax and the connected tools that are
used by countries in imposing taxes.
Advanced Introduction
to International Trade Law
Michael J. Trebilcock, University of Toronto,
Canada
Now part of the Elgar Advanced Introductions
series is this completely updated edition of the
now classic work ‘Understanding Trade Law’.
An essential volume for students of international
trade law. Michael Trebilcock presents a
comprehensive, concise, and accessible account
of the legal regime governing the trading system.
This revised edition takes account of the latest
developments in the field. Like the first edition, this one is a masterful
treatment of the subject that should be on the shelf of everyone working in
international trade.’
– Andrew Guzman, University of California, Berkeley, School of Law, US
‘Who better to provide this highly accessible yet thorough introduction to
international trade law than Michael Trebilcock, one of the world’s preeminent scholars in the field. It introduces all of the important issues in
contemporary trade law in straightforward language, capturing the critical
details of each topic with both clarity and brevity. It can also serve as an
excellent companion to the thick textbooks that accompany international
economics or international trade law courses, or help anyone interested
in this topic to understand the issues without slogging through legal and
economics jargon that makes other sources less approachable.’
– Benjamin Liebman, Saint Joseph’s University, US
‘This volume is authoritative and nuanced, yet concise and highly readable.
At a time when international trade law is becoming the de facto law of
globalization, affecting practically every area of public policy, Advanced
Introduction to International Trade Law is essential reading for policy-makers,
scholars, and students alike.’

contemporary trade agreement – from the legal
perspective. Written and published before the conclusion of the negotiations, the
collection provides preliminary analysis of the broader legal and policy issues at
play during the negotiations. These issues will undoubtedly remain important
following the conclusion of the negotiations. The snapshot provided by this
collection will remain valuable long after the TPP comes into force.’
– Bryan Mercurio, The Chinese University of Hong Kong
This book provides a detailed analysis of major legal and public policy issues
arising from the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP) – a treaty that will
dramatically change the landscape of international trade, with effects that will
be felt on a global scale.
Edited by Geert Van Calster, University

Maastricht University, the Netherlands
‘Geert Van Calster and Denise Prévost have managed
to induce virtually all the great experts on health,
environment and WTO law to contribute to their
Research Handbook on these subjects. The result
is undoubtedly an excellent volume that should
adorn the bookcase of any and all interested in
the important problem of the relation between international rule-making and
regulatory autonomy of states in this area of international economic law.’

Emissions Trading and WTO Law
A Global Analysis
Sustainable Development in International Law
Making and Trade
Felicity Deane, Queensland University of Technology, Australia
International Food Governance and Trade in Agriculture
Emissions Trading and WTO Law examines the global trade issues that arise
as a result of the introduction of emissions trading frameworks. The book
focusses specifically on the rules of the WTO, as a tool to demonstrate where the
boundaries exist for acceptable interference with international trade. In doing
so, Felicity Deane addresses the thorny issue of the potential global impact of
emissions trading frameworks.

Edited by Pierre Sauvé and Anirudh Shingal,

‘Services account for three quarters of GDP in many
countries but less than a quarter of global trade. This
insightful volume assesses recent evidence on services
trade barriers, the extent to which preferential trade
agreements liberalize trade in services and whether
such liberalization benefits only participants or
extends to non-member countries. It provides an
excellent overview of the state of knowledge in this important area, as well as a
number of detailed case studies of recent trade agreements that include services.’

‘This accessible text with its innovative format and breadth of perspectives
is an important and much-needed resource for all of those new to investment
law, whether they be law students or practitioners seeking an introduction
to the field.’
– Andrea K. Bjorklund, University of California, Davis, US
This detailed yet concise textbook is a complete introduction to the law
of international investment protection. With chapters on the sources of
investment law, expropriation, treaty-based principles of protection, dispute
settlement, and investment insurance, the text offers instructors a tool to use
in its entirety or selectively, on its own or combined with other materials.
Written principally for law students, the book contains numerous excerpts
from many of the most influential arbitration decisions. This case-book style
allows the readers to become familiar with reading opinions, whilst at the
same time, the explanations accompanying the case materials eases the
task of grasping the core reasoning contained in the decisions. It also makes
the book suitable for non-legal readers interested in the processes and
implications of mandatory state protection of alien property.
Key features:
• Balance of cases and explanatory comment familiarises students with
reading opinions and enables them to grasp the core concepts at stake.

Research on the role of sovereign investments in a time of crisis is still
unsatisfactory. This Research Handbook illustrates the state of the art of the
legal investigation on sovereign investments, filling necessary gaps in previous
research. Current focus is based on investment flows and trends, grounded
in economic scenarios and objectives. Conversely, investigations from a legal
standpoint are still few, namely disregarding the host states’ concerns about
sovereign investments goals and tools. Hence, most of the many relevant drivers
that affect current sovereign investments, be they FDI or portfolio investments,
remain unexplained. This book investigates the juridical foundation of sovereign
investments and extends our frontier of understanding.

International Investment Law and Development
Edited by Rainer Hofmann, University of Frankfurt, Stephan Schill,
Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law,
Heidelberg, Germany and Christian J. Tams, University of Glasgow, UK
Foreign investment is meant to contribute to the host country’s development,
and yet international investment law has often been seen as an obstacle to
(sustainable) development. So are investment and development friends or foes?
Combining critical reflection and detailed analysis, this timely volume explores
the relationship between the two concepts and explores options of harnessing
investment for development.
The Principle of
National Treatment in
International Economic Law
The principle of national treatment, or the nondiscrimination clause, is a principle that applies
across many fields of international economic law.
This book offers a unique horizontal examination of
the principle as it applies within international trade law, international investment
law, and intellectual property law. A valuable section at the end of the book
draws together the common strands and highlights the variations in application
between these fields.

Indirect Expropriation
in International Law
ELGAR ADVANCED INTRODUCTIONS
Sebastián López Escarcena, Pontificia
Universidad Católica de Chile
‘The precise circumstances in which a governmental
measure amounts to an indirect expropriation
requiring compensation remains one of the
most controversial and important questions of
contemporary international investment law. This
work provides a comprehensive assessment of how
international law has responded to this problem,
taking into account the jurisprudence from a range
of international courts and tribunals. It provides a helpful oversight of how
the law in this area has developed and where it may be heading in the future.’
– James Harrison, University of Edinburgh Law School, UK

‘This book reviews the law and development
literature on everything from property rights
and growth to gender and social development,
with stress on the centrality of institutions for
successful reform. It introduces the topic for
newcomers and can serve as a useful reference
guide for pros. The authors are cognizant of both
the conventional wisdom on law and development and the views of critics.
Committed reformers, they look for ways that legitimate critiques can be
dealt with and reform moved ahead. Yet they avoid some of the errors of the
reform camp: while some see the rule of law as a development panacea and
envision rule of law reform as a simple technocratic enterprise, the authors
understand that the relation between law and development is complex and
not well understood, acknowledging that effective reform requires flexibility,
deep local knowledge and strategic ingenuity.’

Fairness in Law and Economics
This major series, organised by theme, is an essential reference source in the
area of law and economics, forming a comprehensive guide to the subject.
Each volume is edited by a distinguished specialist in the field and provides an
authoritative overview of the respective topic, comprising a careful selection
of the most seminal and ground-breaking articles, and prefaced by a new,
over-arching introduction.

‘A growing literature probes the relationship between
fairness and economic analysis, including work by
luminaries such as Arrow and Sen. Fairness in Law

the key papers on fairness by economists and legal
scholars. This volume would be a great starting point
for anyone interested in the field.’

Law and Economics of Uncertainty
Edited by Joshua C. Teitelbaum, Georgetown University, US
This two-volume collection comprises a selection of the most important
works on the economics of uncertainty and its legal applications. The
first volume presents seminal contributions to the theory of decision
making under uncertainty, from Bernoulli to the present. The second
volume continues with articles at the cutting edge of decision theory and
the economic analysis of law under uncertainty. Along with an original
introduction by Professor Teitelbaum providing an insightful overview of
the works selected, this authoritative collection will be a valuable source of
reference for economists and legal scholars.
41 articles, dating from 1931 to 2011

Although the relationship between fairness and the economic concept of
efficiency is usually cast as an adversarial one, this collection demonstrates
the robust and diverse ways in which economics engages – and cannot avoid
engaging – with fairness. Part I contains papers presenting positive analyses
of fairness preferences and beliefs, which are fundamental means through
which fairness matters for economic models. Part II turns to normative analysis
and the broad question of how law should reconcile fairness and efficiency
considerations. Part III presents a sampling of legal and policy applications in
which both fairness and efficiency considerations prove important.

Efficiency in Law and Economics
Law and Economics of Immigration
Edited by Howard F. Chang, University of Pennsylvania Law School, US
This volume brings together influential and diverse readings on the timely
subject of immigration, including not only work published by leading
economists in economics journals but also important articles published by
legal scholars in law reviews, with a focus on economic issues that are salient
in debates over immigration policy. Professor Chang’s introduction not only
explains the contribution that each reading makes to our understanding
of immigration but also surveys the literature more broadly so as to put
the selected readings in context. This book will be a valuable resource for
policymakers, academics, and students of immigration law and policy.

Economics of Legal History
Institutional Law and Economics
Edited by Daniel Klerman, University of Southern California, US
Generations of law and economics scholars have been fascinated by history,
seeing in its institutions and laws a vast database for illustrating their theories.
Equally, historians have seen economic analysis as a helpful tool with which to
analyze legal institutions. As a result a vibrant field has emerged in which people
trained in law, economics, history and political science have all made significant
contributions. This important volume brings together the most essential works
examining legal history from an economic perspective. An original introduction
by the editor provides a useful roadmap to the field.

history. The first section analyses various perspectives
on the history of customary law. Part two focuses
on the commercial customary law and includes a
number of case studies covering the role and limits of
customary systems in a variety of commercial settings. The final section explores
the role of custom in international law from a variety of legal and economic
perspectives.
Along with an original introduction by Professors Bernstein and Parisi, this

Economic Models of Law
Edited by Thomas J. Miceli, University
of Connecticut and Matthew J. Baker,
Hunter College, CUNY, US
The economic approach to law relies on the use
of economic models, mostly mathematical, for
understanding the nature and function of law.
The articles in this collection reflect state-of-theart modeling techniques and explore how to use
these to both formulate important questions and
resolve particular legal issues. Following an original
introduction by the editors, the volume spans the
many sub-areas of law and economics (with papers in
torts, contracts, property, crime, and legal procedure) and includes a wide range
of papers, incorporating classics and some less well-known papers.
Economic Models of Law will be an invaluable resource for active scholars as well
as an inspiration for the next generation of modelers.

The original contributions to this Handbook provide an introduction to the
application of Austrian economics to law. The Handbook begins with chapters
on the methodology of law and economics. Further chapters discuss key
concepts in Austrian economics – dynamic competitive processes, spontaneous
order, subjective value, entrepreneurship, and the limited nature of individual
knowledge – as they relate to topics in evolutionary law (social rules, selfgovernance, dispute resolution) and basic law (torts, antitrust, civil procedure,
business and family law).

‘For fifty years now, the University of Washington’s
Asian Law Center has stood at the center of American

Legal Innovations in Asia explores how law in Asia has developed over time
as a result of judicial interpretation and innovations drawn from the legal
systems of foreign countries.
Expert scholars from around the world offer a history of law in the region while
also providing a wider context for present-day Asian law. The contributors share
insightful perspectives on comparative law, the role of courts, legal transplants,
intellectual property, Islamic law and other issues as they relate to the practice
and study of law in Japan, China, Taiwan, Korea and Southeast Asia.
Legal scholarship in China has grown dramatically in recent years. This
work has become particularly important as China dramatically expands its

Flora Sapio, The Chinese University of Hong

The Future Practice of Law
Edited by William van Caenegem
and Mary Hiscock, Bond University, Australia
The Politics of Law and Stability in China examines
the nexus between social stability and the law in
contemporary China. It explores the impact of
Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) rationales for social
stability on legal reforms, criminal justice operations
and handling of disputes and social unrest inside and outside China’s justice
agencies. The book presents an extensive investigation into the conceptual
and empirical approaches by the Party-state to control Chinese citizens and to
respond to what it sees as potentially de-stabilising social action such as public
protest, discord, deviance and criminal behaviour. This timely and important
study reaches across a broad variety of areas within the legal sphere, including
substantive criminal law and criminal procedure law reform, labour law,
environment and land disputes, policing and surveillance, and anti-corruption
drives. The central thread running through all the chapters concerns how the
imperative of social stability has underpinned key Party-state approaches to
social management and responses to crime, legal disputes and social unrest
across the last decade in China.

Legal Services Regulation at the Crossroads
Justitia’s Legions
‘I have been delighted to have been able to observe, and discuss with, Professor
Noel Semple the evolution of this outstanding book over the past three years.
In my view, there is no comparable treatment of the regulation of legal services
in North America that is as comprehensive in its substantive coverage, broadly
interdisciplinary in the perspectives it engages, and original in the insights it offers.’
The Chinese Anti-Monopoly Law
New Developments
and Empirical Evidence
– Extract from Foreword by Michael Trebilcock, University of Toronto, Canada
Through a comparative study of English-speaking jurisdictions, this book seeks
to illuminate the policy choices involved in legal services regulation as well as
the important consequences of those choices. Regulation can protect the interests
of clients and the public, and reinforce the rule of law. On the other hand, legal
services regulation can also undermine access to justice and suppress innovation,
while failing to accomplish any of its lofty ambitions. The book seeks a path
forward to increasing regulation’s benefits and reducing its burdens for clients
and for the public. It proposes a client-centric approach to enhance access to
justice and service quality, while revitalizing legal professionalism, self-regulation,
and independence.

The Rule of Law
NEW KEY TITLE
The Common Sense of Global Politics
Critical Reflections on Ownership
Christopher May, Lancaster University, UK
Mary Warnock, House of Lords, UK
‘Mary Warnock’s Critical Reflections on Ownership is a sustained meditation
on the significance that ownership has for us from one our finest philosophical
voices.’
– J E Penner, author of The Idea of Property in Law
In this thought provoking work, Mary Warnock explores what it is to own
things, and the differences in our attitude to what we own and what we do not.
Starting from the philosophical standpoints of Locke and Hume, the ownership
of gardens is presented as a prime example, exploring both private and
common ownership, historically and autobiographically. Concluding that,
besides pleasure and pride, ownership brings a sense of responsibility for what
is owned, a fundamental question is brought to light. Can we feel the same
responsibility for what we do not, and never can, own? Applying this question
to the natural world and the planet as a whole, a realistic and gradualist
perspective is offered on confronting global environmental degradation. Critical
Reflections on Ownership examines the effect of the Romantic Movement on
our attitudes to nature and is a salient commentary on the history of ideas.

Understanding the Nature of Law
A Case for Constructive Conceptual Explanation
Series editor: Symeon C. Symeonides, Willamette University,
College of Law, US
Michael Giudice, York University, Toronto, Canada
This book takes up methodological questions in legal philosophy about the proper
way of understanding law. Among these questions one is central: is there something
about the nature of law itself which determines how it ought to be explained? In
this important new book, Michael Giudice argues that many conceptual theories
of law are best understood not as the results of conceptual analysis, but instead as
constructive conceptual explanations. Such emphasis, the author maintains, has the
potential to resolve many methodological issues and move legal theory back from
methodological disputes to first-order theorizing about law.

What Legal Scholarship is About
Bert van Roermund, Tilburg University,
the Netherlands
Edited by Horatia Muir Watt, Sciences-Po Law School, France
The conspicuous absence of private international law from the current
global governance debate may be traced in part to its traditional
‘public law taboo’, fed by liberal understandings of statehood and
its characteristic public/private divide, in the context of the modern
schism between the public and private branches of international law.
Alongside an original introduction, the materials assembled in this
important collection are of immediate interest to both public and private
international lawyers, and more broadly to all those interested in new
forms of global governance and the theory of law beyond the state.
Two volume set July 2015 c 1,920 pp
Hardback 978 1 78254 779 2 c £560.00
‘This book proves to be an excellent guide through the
labyrinth of law. Its crucial point is legal order viewed
from the perspective of a situated “we”. Jurisprudence
appears as an implicit sort of thinking, embedded in
moral, political, epistemological, and linguistic contexts.
Numerous example cases lead us from everyday issues to
the abysses of violence. Anyone who practises or studies
law will highly profit from reading this book. One sees
how law functions by being more than mere law.’

Private International Law, Art and Cultural Heritage
Public–Private Partnerships
and the Law
Christa Roodt, University of Glasgow, UK
In this timely book Christa Roodt demonstrates how the structure and method
of private international law can be applied in its expanding relationship with
cultural heritage law. In particular, she explores the use of private international
law in the context of ownership claims and the illicit trafficking of cultural
objects. She shows how, in decisions about classification and the public policy
exception, and in the application and treatment of foreign public law, valuerationality and mutuality can defeat the dogmatic underpinnings of conflicts and
jurisdiction rules that frustrate the achievement of global solidarity.

with growing impact on practice, academia, and the further development of EU

– Geert van Calster, University of Leuven, Belgium
The harmonisation of private international law in Europe has advanced rapidly
since the entry into force of the Treaty of Amsterdam. Most aspects of private
international law are now governed or at least affected by EU legislation, and
there is a substantial and growing body of case-law from the European Court as
well as the courts of the member states. This timely Handbook addresses key
questions and problems that currently exist in the rules of private international
law laid down by European Union regulations.

Alongside the greater “goods” of transnational

Since the 1990s many of the assumptions that
anchored the study of governance in international

on the intriguing and important processes of change
that have occurred, and are occurring, Professors
Anthony Payne and Nicola Phillips bring together
the best research currently being undertaken in
the field. They explore the complex ways that the
global political economy is presently being governed, and indeed misgoverned.
Covering all themes central to the field of politics, this extensive and detailed
Handbook will be of great value to students of governance, political economy,
international relations and development studies.

The New Regulatory Space
Edited by Henriette Sinding Aasen, University
of Bergen, Siri Gloppen, University of Bergen/
Michelsen Institute, Anne-Mette Magnussen,
Bergen University College and Even Nilssen,
Uni Rokkan Centre, Bergen, Norway
The concept of juridification refers to a diverse set of
processes involving shifts towards more detailed legal
regulation, regulations of new areas, and conflicts
and problems increasingly being framed in legal and
rights-oriented terms. This timely book questions the
impact international and national regulations have upon vulnerable groups (the
unemployed, patients, prisoners, immigrants, and others) in terms of inclusion,
exclusion and social citizenship. Focusing on European welfare states, as well
as lessons from Latin America, it considers the implementation of the right to
health and the role of international courts. This book brings empirical analysis
and multidisciplinary, comparative perspectives to the previously fragmented
and largely theoretical debate on juridification in the welfare state.

Featuring an original introduction by the editors, this carefully selected
collection of essays explores the main issues surrounding competition
and regulation in electricity markets. The industry is experiencing irresistible
forces for change driven by energy policy objectives; a reassessment
of market regulation in the face of high energy prices and the response
to consumer pressure to agree on what constitutes a fair price for energy.
This volume identifies the key articles that underpin the debate across the
industries supply chain (generation, supply and networks) and from
a regulatory perspective (including market power and incentive regulation).
The volume then considers the overall impact of liberalisation and future
developments.
