Mediating International Child Abduction Cases: The Hague Convention
ISBN: 9781849461818 / Angielski / Twarda / 126 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There has been growing enthusiasm for the use of mediation to seek a resolution for cases arising under the Hague Convention of October 25, 1980 on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. However, despite being endorsed by the conclusions of experts, judicial comment, and even legislative changes, there have been relatively few cases where mediation has played a significant role. It has been suggested that the reason underlying this dichotomy between the widespread support for the use of mediation and the current limited practice is that there are several key questions regarding...

This book offers...

ISBN: 9781849461191 / Angielski / Twarda / 544 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The patterns and impact of globalization have become a common concern of all international jurists, sociologists, political scientists, and philosophers. Many have observed the erosion of the powers of nation states and the emergence of new transnational governance regimes, and seek to understand their internal dynamics, re-regulatory potential, and normative quality. Karl Polanyi's seminal book - The Great Transformation - is attracting new attention to such endeavors, mirroring a growing sensitivity to the social and economic risks of dis-embedding politics. Their re-construction by Polanyi...

Global Legal Pluralism: A Jurisprudence of Law Beyond Borders
ISBN: 9780521769822 / Angielski / Twarda / 358 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. We live in a world of legal pluralism, where a single act or actor is potentially regulated by multiple legal or quasi-legal regimes imposed by state, substate, transnational, supranational, and nonstate communities. Navigating these spheres of complex overlapping legal authority is confusing, and we cannot expect territorial borders to solve all these problems because human activity and legal norms inevitably flow across such borders. At the same time, those hoping to create one universal set of legal rules are also likely to be disappointed by the sheer variety of human communities and...

Rough Consensus and Running Code
ISBN: 9781849463546 / Angielski / Miękka / 382 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Private law has long been the focus of efforts to explain wider developments of law in an era of globalization. As consumer transactions and corporate activities continue to develop with scant regard to legal and national boundaries, private law theorists have begun to sketch and conceptualize the possible architecture of a transnational legal theory. Drawing a detailed map of the mixed regulatory landscape - of 'hard' and 'soft' laws; official, unofficial, direct, and indirect modes of regulation, rules, recommendations, and principles; as well as exploring the concept of governance through...

Legalized Killing: The Darker Side of the Castle Laws
ISBN: 9780615401652 / Angielski / Miękka / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Legalized Killing examines the self-defense laws of America, especially the so-called castle laws of states like Texas and Oklahoma, where citizens can use deadly force even if they merely think they are threatened, which in hindsight might not be true. These laws supposedly protect citizens from prosecution if they injure or kill an intruder in self-defense, and they also disallow civil lawsuits against the one defending. But there is an inherent weakness in these laws, which can be found in the answer to a simple question: was it genuine self-defense, where the choice was shoot or die, or...
