The United Nations and collective security 

Wilson,Gary


Abstract:The role of the United Nations in collective security has been evolving since its inception in 1945. This book explores collective security as practiced within the legal framework provided by the United Nations Charter, with a particular focus upon activity undertaken under the auspices of the UN Security Council, the body conferred by the Charter with the primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. Although the book is primarily grounded in international law, where appropriate it also draws upon relevant political insights in order to present a clear picture of the UN collective security system in operation and the factors which impact upon the way in which it functions.



Privacy and media   freedom 

Wacks, Raymond.


Abstract:Freedom of expression is a fundamental right at the heart of any democratic society. It is, however, inevitably restricted by other important values, including the right to privacy: the control individuals exercise over their sensitive personal information. The English law, since the enactment of the Human Rights Act 1998, has undergone a tectonic shift in its recognition of this right protected by Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) which the Act assimilated into domestic law. The new civil wrong, 'misuse of private information, ' now affords greater protection to an individual's 'private and family life, home and correspondence.' 



Philosophy of law :collected essays 

Finnis, John,


Abstract:John Finnis has been a central figure in the development of legal philosophy over the past half-century. This volume of his Collected Essays shows the full range and power of his contributions to core problems in the philosophy of law: the foundations of law's authority legal reasoning constitutional theory and the logic of law-making.



Alternative investment fund regulation 

Eddy Wymeersch  


Abstract:In the wake of the recent global financial crisis regulators and supervisors became aware that the risk appetite of hedge funds and private equity funds was to a significant extent shielded from public scrutiny, as it was only through banks financing of these funds that public authorities could obtain a view on the role of these funds in the wider financial system. In order to disperse this lack of reliable and comprehensive data, measures were adopted both in the European Union the Alternative Investment Management Funds Directive and to a lesser extent in the United States to impose a risk-sensitive framework.




Sovereign debt

 management 

Lastra, Rosa Maria


Abstract:Sovereign debt is a complex and highly topical area of law and this work represents a new main reference book on the subject bringing together contributions from world leading practitioners, scholars and regulators. 


Divided into five parts the book opens with a part on restructuring which analyses contractual provisions and the role of institutions such as the International Monetary Fund. The second part, on enforcement, considers the position of a sovereign as a defendant analyzing the availability of special immunities and matters of defense and arbitration pertinent to sovereign debt. 




Patent Ethics: 

Litigation

Hricik, David.


Abstract:Patent Ethics: Litigation is a unique guide to the ethical issues arising in the course of the patent litigation process. By providing relevant rules and case law, it allows practitioners to identify ethical problems before they arise and to address them most effectively when they do. Patent Ethics: Litigation is the second of two volumes on patent ethics. This treatise is the first of its kind to combine rules and patent-specific cases with commentary by the author, which distills the author's own experience and expertise in ethics and patent litigation into effective practice strategies. 



Foundational texts

 in modern 

criminal law 

Dubber, 

Markus Dirk,


Abstract:Foundational Texts in Modern Criminal Law presents essays in which scholars from various countries and legal systems engage critically with formative texts in criminal legal thought since Hobbes. It examines the emergence of a transnational canon of criminal law by documenting its intellectual and disciplinary history and provides a snapshot of contemporary work on criminal law within that historical and comparative context. 




The Oxford handbook of criminal law 

Dubber, Markus Dirk,,Hornle, Tatjana,


Abstract:The Oxford Handbook of Criminal Law reflects the continued transformation of criminal law into a global discipline, providing scholars with a comprehensive international resource, a common point of entry into cutting edge contemporary research and a snapshot of the state and scope of the field. To this end, the Handbook takes a broad approach to its subject matter, disciplinarily, geographically, and systematically. Its contributors include current and future research leaders representing a variety of legal systems, methodologies, areas of expertise, and research agendas. 




Liberalization of 

trade in legal 

services 

Muller, Gilles,

Abstract:The internationalization of legal services and the development of corporate law firms have led to profound changes in the practice of law,giving it a more commercial and international focus.These changes,coupled with a general intolerance of restrictions to competition,have led governments to reconsider the way they regulate the profession.Liberalization of trade in legal services takes place both at the multilateral level within the World Trade Organization s General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) and at the regional level within preferential trade agreements (PTAs).This book analyses the liberalization process that takes place at both levels.It is the first publication to undertake an in-depth analysis of the obligations contained in these agreements.Starting from an overview of the regulations related to legal services and focusing on barriers to cross-border legal services that result from these regulations the analysis goes a long way towards pinpointing which regulations should be removed and which adopted or preserved in order to facilitate international trade in legal services.



Crime prevention:heory andpractice 

Schneider,

 Stephen,


Abstract:Characterized both by its interdisciplinary and its applied nature, crime prevention is influenced by diverse fields such as psychology, sociology, criminology, health care, urban planning and design, education, economics, community development, and social work, among others. The study of crime prevention is also focused on developing and evaluating interventions for applications in real-world settings. In addition to exploring basic concepts and theories, Crime Prevention: Theory and Practice reflects the predominantly applied nature of the field, offering readers the knowledge and skills necessary to plan, implement, evaluate, and sustain effective crime prevention interventions.




Cybercrime and 

society

Yar, Majid.


Abstract:Cybercrime and Society provides a clear, systematic, critical introduction to current debates about cybercrime. It locates the phenomenon in the wider contexts of social, political, cultural and economic change. This is the first book to draw upon perspectives spanning criminology, sociology, law, politics and cultural studies to examine the whole range of cybercrime issues, including: computer hacking; cyber-terrorism; media 'piracy'; financial fraud and identity theft; online stalking; hate speech; pornography'; and surveillance. Cybercrime and Society takes an international perspective, drawing on research, case studies and examples from the UK, the US, Europe and beyond. It includes chapter outlines and summaries, further reading and a glossary.



Debates in German public law 

Punder, 

Hermann.


Abstract:Germany's constitution - the Basic Law of 23rd May 1949 - created a democratic constitution which, despite amendments, has held up over the years, even providing the legal basis for German reunification in 1990. When it was written, the Basic Law was initially regarded as a temporary solution which would last until a pan-German constitution could be created, but, over the years, it has grown to become a mainstay of post-war stability and has even become one of Germany's most successful exports. 




Financial services

 law 

Blair, Michael C.


Abstract: Financial Services Law provides a detailed analysis of the UK regulatory regime under FSMA and the FSA handbook and rules as impacted by EC legislation. This established work has been updated to incorporate recent legislative developments and case law. In addition to new areas of coverage, some key existing topics have also been expanded, such as coverage of MiFID in the light of its implementation in 2007. A specialist writing team of practitioners and present or former regulators ensures that the book provides practical guidance from the inside track, and that the work remains the most authoritative and comprehensive single work on the financial services regulatory regime.
