The Development of African Capital Markets: A Legal and Institutional Approach (Routledge Contemporary Africa)
by Boniface ChimpangoMost capital markets that have been established in developing economies like Africa have struggled to make progress over two decades down the line. Development of African Capital Markets explores why these markets have remained underdeveloped and discusses a possible development theory that can be used in designing and implementing legal and institutional reforms to reinvigorate capital markets in African and other developing countries. Boniface Chimpango analyses the weaknesses of capital markets in developing countries, and argues that legal and institutional framework for capital markets in developing countries should be tailored to the unique informal rules prevalent in each country rather than being transplanted from developed countries. This book will be of interest to scholars, students and policy makers in the fields of economic development, African Studies, law, development and regulatory policy.
The Development of Jury Service in Japan: A square block in a round hole?
by Anna DobrovolskaiaThis book presents a comprehensive account of past and present efforts to introduce the jury system in Japan. Four legal reforms are documented and assessed: the implementation of the bureaucratic and all-judge special jury systems in the 1870s, the introduction of the all-layperson jury in the late 1920s, the transplantation of the Anglo-American-style jury system to Okinawa under the U.S. Occupation, and the implementation of the mixed-court lay judge (saiban’in) system in 2009. While being primarily interested in the related case studies, the book also discusses the instances when the idea of introducing trial by jury was rejected at different times in Japan’s history. Why does legal reform happen? What are the determinants of success and failure of a reform effort? What are the prospects of the saiban’in system to function effectively in Japan? This book offers important insights on the questions that lie at the core of the law and society debate and are highly relevant for understanding contemporary Japan and its recent and distant past.
The Development of the Rule of Law in ASEAN: The State and Regional Integration
by Imelda DeinlaAn interdisciplinary work that comparatively studies rule of law practices and the relationship between the rule of law and regional integration, a topic largely explored in European integration. By looking at the function of the rule of law in ASEAN rather than what it 'means' measured on normative conception, the book situates the rule of law in broader institutional and political processes in the member states and in regional relations to show the motivations of member states in adopting a peculiar type of regional architecture. It asks whether forging the rule of law in the region can help build it internally for member states. The book revisits discourses on the 'spill-over' of economic integration, the impact of globalization in reshaping the state and generating new tools of the rule of law. It makes a comprehensive comparison - the European Union, Africa Union and MERCOSUR - showing the uneven pathways to rule of law in various contexts.
The Devout Hand: Women, Virtue, and Visual Culture in Early Modern Italy
by Patricia RoccoAfter the Counter-Reformation, the Papal State of Bologna became a hub for the flourishing of female artistic talent. The eighteenth-century biographer Luigi Crespi recorded over twenty-eight women artists working in the city, although many of these, until recently, were ignored by modern art criticism, despite the fame they attained during their lifetimes. What were the factors that contributed to Bologna’s unique confluence of women with art, science, and religion? The Devout Hand explores the work of two generations of Italian women artists in Bologna, from Lavinia Fontana (1552–1614), whose career emerged during the aftermath of the Counter Reformation, to her brilliant successor, Elisabetta Sirani (1638–1665), who organized the first school for women artists. Patricia Rocco further sheds light on Sirani’s students and colleagues, including the little-known engraver Veronica Fontana and the innovative but understudied etcher Giuseppe Maria Mitelli. Combining analysis of iconography, patronage, gender, and reception studies, Rocco integrates painting, popular prints, book illustration, and embroidery to open a wider lens onto the relationship between women, virtue, and the visual arts during a period of religious crisis and reform. A reminder of the lasting power of images, The Devout Hand highlights women’s active role in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Christian reform and artistic production.
A Dharma Reader: Classical Indian Law (Historical Sourcebooks in Classical Indian Thought)
by Patrick OlivelleWhether defined by family, lineage, caste, professional or religious association, village, or region, India's diverse groups did settle on a concept of law in classical times. How did they reach this consensus? Was it based on religious grounds or a transcendent source of knowledge? Did it depend on time and place? And what apparatus did communities develop to ensure justice was done, verdicts were fair, and the guilty were punished?Addressing these questions and more, A Dharma Reader traces the definition, epistemology, procedure, and process of Indian law from the third century B.C.E. to the middle ages. Its breadth captures the centuries-long struggle by Indian thinkers to theorize law in a multiethnic and pluralist society. The volume includes new and accessible translations of key texts, notes that explain the significance and chronology of selections, and a comprehensive introduction that summarizes the development of various disciplines in intellectual-historical terms. It reconstructs the principal disputes of a given discipline, which not only clarifies the arguments but also relays the dynamism of the fight. For those seeking a richer understanding of the political and intellectual origins of a major twenty-first-century power, along with unique insight into the legal interactions among its many groups, this book offers exceptional detail, historical precision, and expository illumination.

Die Dritte Welt Bankrott machen
by James Morcan Lance Morcan FmDie dritte Welt Bankrott machen ist den Verarmten an vergessenen Orten dieser Welt gewidmet. Es hinterfragt, ob die Weltbank, der Internationale Währungsfonds, die Behörde der Vereinigten Staaten für internationale Entwicklung, ihresgleichen sowie andere große internationale Hilfsorganisationen den ärmsten Menschen der Welt helfen oder sie behindern. Dieses Buch hinterfragt auch, ob Hilfspakete echt oder Betrügereien sind, um Dritte-Welt Länder zu unterwerfen. Es belichtet die Korruptionskultur innerhalb der oben genannten Hilfsorganisationen und die Arroganz, mit der sie ihre ‚Kunden‘ aus der Dritten Welt behandeln. Die Morcans enthüllen eine ruchlose geheime Agenda, wobei die ‚Großzügigkeit‘ der internationalen Hilfsorganisationen, mit der sie die Entwicklung der Dritten Welt unterstützen sowie im Falle von Naturkatastrophen helfen, mit Bedingungen verbunden ist. Bedingungen, die dazu da sind, verletzliche Länder zu schröpfen. Der Leser wird daran erinnert, dass wirtschaftliche Auftragskiller, die in John Perkins Bestseller Confessions of an Economic Hit Man von 2004 noch aktiv sind – vor allem in Afrika. Beim Schreiben dieses Buches wurden die Autoren von einer kranken Statistik motiviert: 21.000 Menschen sterben jeden Tag durch Hunger. Das ist eine Person alle vier Sekunden! Noch krankhafter ist die Tatsache, dass solche Todesfälle unnötig sind, angesichts dessen, dass es auf der ganzen Welt genügend Wohlstand gibt, um jedem zumindest die Grundbedürfnisse im Leben zu erfüllen und mehr als genug in der Dritten Welt selbst, sodass diese sich selbst finanzieren könnte. Wenn Sie an das Ende des Buches gelangen, werden Sie sehen, dass man in der Dritten Welt genauso viel Vermögen finden kann, wie in der Ersten Welt. Tatsächlich sind Ausdrücke wie ‚Dritte Welt‘ und ‚verarmte Länder‘ Fehlbezeichnungen, da sie andeuten, dass das Vermögen und die Ressourcen dort begrenzt sind.
Die Forschungsverfügung
by Felix ReimerDiese Monografie behandelt die Voraussetzungen und die Reichweite von antizipierten Verfügungen, die Humanforschungsmaßnahmen mit Einwilligungsunfähigen – insbesondere Notfall- und Demenzpatienten – betreffen. Zunächst wird die medizinische Forschungssituation skizziert und die medizinethischen und medizinrechtlichen Grundlagen der Humanforschung sowie die nationalen und internationalen Forschungsregelungen dargestellt. In einer verfassungsrechtlichen Untersuchung werden Inhalt und Reichweite des Selbstbestimmungsrechts des Verfügenden herausgearbeitet, um anschließend die Forschungsverfügung auf deren Vereinbarkeit mit den zivilrechtlichen Normen zur Patientenverfügung und dem nationalen und europäischen Forschungsrecht zu untersuchen. Schwerpunkte sind das Aufklärungsproblem, insbesondere die notwendige Anerkennung eines teilweisen Aufklärungsverzichts und die Durchsetzung von Forschungsverfügungen.
Die Grenzen der Demokratie: Gegenwartsdiagnosen zwischen Politik und Recht
by Annette Förster Matthias LemkeDieser Band bildet die aktuelle Debatte und Forschung zu Demokratiequalität ab. Denn demokratisches Regieren steht derzeit weltweit unter keinem guten Stern. Demokratien stehen wirtschaftlich unter Druck, tendieren mehr und mehr zu autoritären Problemlösungen – vom Ausnahmezustand bis zur Folter – und sehen sich zudem mit der Bewältigung von Migrationsbewegungen ungeahnten Ausmaßes konfrontiert. Wie wird die Demokratie aus dieser Krise hervorgehen? Wie schnell oder langsam verändert sie sich? Und wann ist im Rahmen der anstehenden Veränderungen ein Punkt erreicht, an dem von Demokratie nicht mehr zu sprechen ist?
The Dieselgate
by Marco Frigessi di RattalmaThis book explains, compares and assesses the legal implications of Dieselgate within a range of selected jurisdictions and at the EU, international and comparative law level. The book analyses the US EPA-VW $14. 7 billion dollar settlement of 2016, one of the largest civil settlements in the history of environmental law. As it shows, the Dieselgate affair has raised a host of issues concerning corporate and social responsibility, tort liability, environmental liability, contractual defective products, warranty, and false environmental claims in a range of jurisdictions. Issues like repurchasing or retrofitting cars from consumers and making direct payments to consumers through car buy-backs and compensation are analysed. Further, the book relates how Dieselgate has also contributed to the discussion about the introduction of more effective collective measures of redress for consumers, such as class actions, in Germany, France, Italy and the UK. The book subsequently reviews the criminal offences Volkswagen is currently confronted with in Germany, France and Italy, i. e. fraud and manipulation of capital markets (by belatedly providing shareholders with essential information relevant for the share value), and, potentially, environmental crimes. It demonstrates how Dieselgate has sparked new debates in Germany, Italy, France and the UK about the need to introduce enterprise liability for organised crimes, lack of compliance and control structures, and intentional violations of the law. Lastly, the book discusses how EU law has sought to respond to Dieselgate and thus investigates the controversial EU Regulation No. 2016/646 introducing a "temporary conformity factor" of 2. 1 (equivalent to a 110% increase on the current limit) to be applied for NOx in the new RDE testing cycle, and the works of the EU committee of inquiry into Emissions Measurements in the Automotive Sector (EMIS).
Digital Government: Leveraging Innovation to Improve Public Sector Performance and Outcomes for Citizens
by Svenja Falk, Andrea Römmele and Michael SilvermanThis book focuses on the implementation of digital strategies in the public sectors in the US, Mexico, Brazil, India and Germany. The case studies presented examine different digital projects by looking at their impact as well as their alignment with their national governments’ digital strategies. The contributors assess the current state of digital government, analyze the contribution of digital technologies in achieving outcomes for citizens, discuss ways to measure digitalization and address the question of how governments oversee the legal and regulatory obligations of information technology. The book argues that most countries formulate good strategies for digital government, but do not effectively prescribe and implement corresponding policies and programs. Showing specific programs that deliver results can help policy makers, knowledge specialists and public-sector researchers to develop best practices for future national strategies.
Dignity and the Organization (Humanism in Business Series)
by Monika Kostera and Michael PirsonThis important book focuses on the role of human dignity, its protection and promotion in the context of organization and Humanistic Management. The recent phenomenon of humanism in management already has a rich body of literature and takes up many themes both theoretically, and from a practitioner perspective. Dignity and the Organization is the first book to explicitly deal with the topic of human dignity and management. The chapters address various aspects and problems from a humanistically-oriented perspective, taking up issues relevant for the contemporary management theorists and practitioners, and are concerned with organization, management and the social and cultural context. The book develops the notion of human dignity in conceptual and theoretical terms in its practical application, within the context of organizations.
The Dignity of Commerce: Markets and the Moral Foundations of Contract Law
by Nathan B. OmanWhy should the law care about enforcing contracts? We tend to think of a contract as the legal embodiment of a moral obligation to keep a promise. When two parties enter into a transaction, they are obligated as moral beings to play out the transaction in the way that both parties expect. But this overlooks a broader understanding of the moral possibilities of the market. Just as Shakespeare’s Shylock can stand on his contract with Antonio not because Antonio is bound by honor but because the enforcement of contracts is seen as important to maintaining a kind of social arrangement, today’s contracts serve a fundamental role in the functioning of society. With The Dignity of Commerce, Nathan B. Oman argues persuasively that well-functioning markets are morally desirable in and of themselves and thus a fit object of protection through contract law. Markets, Oman shows, are about more than simple economic efficiency. To do business with others, we must demonstrate understanding of and satisfy their needs. This ability to see the world from another’s point of view inculcates key virtues that support a liberal society. Markets also provide a context in which people can peacefully cooperate in the absence of political, religious, or ideological agreement. Finally, the material prosperity generated by commerce has an ameliorative effect on a host of social ills, from racial discrimination to environmental destruction. The first book to place the moral status of the market at the center of the justification for contract law, The Dignity of Commerce is sure to elicit serious discussion about this central area of legal studies.
Disability and Community Living Policies (Cambridge Disability Law and Policy Series)
by Arie RimmermanThis book provides a comprehensive analysis of the roots of institutionalization, deinstitutionalization legislation and policies of the twentieth century, and twenty-first-century efforts to promote community living policies domestically and internationally, particularly through the role of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD), a landmark treaty adopted on 13 December 2006. Rimmerman shows that deinstitutionalization and community living cannot be examined only in terms of the number of institutions closed but also through the substantial change in values, legislation, and policies supporting personalization, as well as the social participation of people with disabilities. The book includes a significant exploration of United States legislation and important Supreme Court decisions compared with European policies toward community living. Finally it discusses the importance of Articles 12 and 19 of the convention and demonstrates the case of Israel that has used the convention as a road map for proposing a new community living policy. Provides insightful views of the shift from institutionalization to human rights approaches Demonstrates how Articles 12 and 19 of the UN convention can be implemented at national level Analyzes the differences between European and United States policies toward community living
Disability, Human Rights, and Information Technology
by Jonathan Lazar Michael SteinDisability, Human Rights, and Information Technology addresses the global issue of equal access to information and communications technology (ICT) by persons with disabilities. The right to access the same digital content at the same time and at the same cost as people without disabilities is implicit in several human rights instruments and is featured prominently in Articles 9 and 21 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. <P><P>The right to access ICT, moreover, invokes complementary civil and human rights issues: freedom of expression; freedom to information; political participation; civic engagement; inclusive education; the right to access the highest level of scientific and technological information; and participation in social and cultural opportunities. <P><P>Despite the ready availability and minimal cost of technology to enable people with disabilities to access ICT on an equal footing as consumers without disabilities, prevailing practice around the globe continues to result in their exclusion. Questions and complexities may also arise where technologies advance ahead of existing laws and policies, where legal norms are established but not yet implemented, or where legal rights are defined but clear technical implementations are not yet established. <P><P>At the intersection of human-computer interaction, disability rights, civil rights, human rights, international development, and public policy, the volume's contributors examine crucial yet underexplored areas, including technology access for people with cognitive impairments, public financing of information technology, accessibility and e-learning, and human rights and social inclusion. <P><P>Contributors: John Bertot, Peter Blanck, Judy Brewer, Joyram Chakraborty, Tim Elder, Jim Fruchterman, G. Anthony Giannoumis, Paul Jaeger, Sanjay Jain, Deborah Kaplan, Raja Kushalnagar, Jonathan Lazar, Fredric I. Lederer, Janet E.

Disability Law: Cases And Materials (American Casebook Series)
by Stephen Befort Nicole PorterThis casebook covers disability discrimination under the Americans with Disabilities Act and special education under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. It includes statutory text and court decisions in the areas of employment, government services, public accommodations, and education. The casebook incorporates a substantial number of cases decided after the enactment of the ADA Amendments Act.

Each chapter contains streamlined notes and questions designed to provoke thoughtful class discussion.
Disability Politics in a Global Economy: Essays in Honour of Marta Russell
by Ravi MalhotraWhile the visibility of disability studies has increased in recent years, few have thoroughly examined the marginalization of people with disabilities through the lens of political economy. This was the great contribution of Marta Russell (1951-2013), an activist and prominent scholar in the United States and best known for her analyses of the issues faced by people with disabilities. This book examines the legacy of Marta Russell, bringing together distinguished scholars and activists such as Anne Finger, Nirmala Erevelles and Mark Weber, to explicate current issues relevant to the empowerment of people with disabilities. Drawing from various fields including Law, Political Economy, Education and History, the book takes a truly interdisciplinary approach, offering a body of work that develops a dextrous understanding of the marginalization of people with disabilities. The book will be of great use and interest to specialists and students in the fields of Political Economy, Law and Society, Labour Studies, Disability Studies, Women’s Studies, and Political Science.
Disagreeing Virtuously: Religious Conflict in Interdisciplinary Perspective
by Olli-Pekka VainioDisagreement is inevitable, particularly in our current context, marked by the close coexistence of conflicting values and perspectives in politics, religion, and ethics. How can we deal with disagreement ethically and constructively in our pluralistic world? In Disagreeing Virtuously Olli-Pekka Vainio presents a valuable interdisciplinary approach to that question, drawing on insights from intellectual history, the cognitive sciences, philosophy of religion, and virtue theory. After mapping the current discussion on disagreement among various disciplines, Vainio offers fresh ways to understand the complicated nature of human disagreement and recommends ways to manage our interpersonal and intercommunal conflicts in ethically sustainable ways.
Disagreements of the Jurists: A Manual of Islamic Legal Theory (Library of Arabic Literature #22)
by John Sexton al-Qadi al-Numan Devin Stewart John CoughlinA masterful overview of Islamic law and its diversity Al-Qadi al-Nu'man was the chief legal theorist and ideologue of the North African Fatimid dynasty in the tenth century. This translation makes available for the first time in English his major work on Islamic legal theory (usul al-fiqh), which presents a legal model in support of the Fatimid claim to legitimate rule. Composed as part of a grand project to establish the theoretical bases of the official Fatimid legal school, Disagreements of the Jurists expounds a distinctly Shi'i system of hermeneutics. The work begins with a discussion of the historical causes of jurisprudential divergence in the first Islamic centuries and goes on to engage, point by point, with the specific interpretive methods of Sunni legal theory. The text thus preserves important passages from several Islamic legal theoretical works no longer extant, and in the process throws light on a critical stage in the development of Islamic legal theory that would otherwise be lost to history.
Disarmament under International Law
by John KierulfRussia’s annexation of Crimea and involvement in the conflict in eastern Ukraine has in many respects set back post-Cold War improved relations between Russia, the United States, and Europe. The continued war in Syria threatens the security and stability of many countries in the Middle East and attacks by ISIS and other terrorist organizations are causing increased fear and instability in Iraq and in neighbouring countries. In many areas negotiations on disarmament and arms control are at a standstill. In Disarmament under International Law, John Kierulf examines and discusses how disarmament, arms control, and non-proliferation of both conventional weapons and weapons of mass destruction are regulated in existing treaties and conventions. From his perspective as a former disarmament negotiator, Kierulf explains the United Nations’ disarmament machinery and procedures, and describes the UN’s essential role in promoting disarmament. Underlining the continued and serious threat posed by nuclear weapons, Kierulf appeals for increased and effective international efforts to reduce their number and ultimately eliminate them. Presenting information and analysis on a comprehensive range of issues, Disarmament under International Law is an essential guide for anyone interested in gaining knowledge about the current state of international security.

Discrimination and the Law 2e (Studies In Employment And Social Policy #Vol. 34)
by Malcolm SargeantDiscrimination and the Law provides an exploration and evaluation of discrimination law, focusing primarily on discrimination in employment. Introducing readers to the concepts of equality and the historical origins of discrimination law, Malcolm Sargeant explores the wider political, social and economic contexts through which discrimination law has evolved. The second edition has been thoroughly updated and includes a new chapter considering discrimination against trade unionists, discrimination against ‘non-standard’ workers as well as the public sector equality duty. The book begins with an examination of what is meant by such concepts as equality and discrimination followed by an analysis of the Equality Act 2010 and the impact of EU and international law. All the protected characteristics contained in the Equality Act 2010 are critically considered (age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation). Issues not covered by the legislation such as those relating to multiple discrimination and caste discrimination are also analysed. Important cases from the UK courts as well as international courts are considered. The book also contains an appendix with the most relevant parts of the 2010 Act. Important cases are highlighted in the text and some reflections as the basis for further discussion are included at the end of each chapter. This is an essential introduction to the wide-ranging law relating to discrimination in the UK for law, HRM and business students.
Discrimination, Copyright and Equality (Cambridge Disability Law and Policy Series)
by Paul HarpurWhile equality laws operate to enable access to information, these laws have limited power over the overriding impact of market forces and copyright laws that focus on restricting access to information. Technology now creates opportunities for everyone in the world, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, to be able to access the written word – yet the print disabled are denied reading equality, and have their access to information limited by laws protecting the mainstream use and consumption of information. The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and the World Intellectual Property Organization's Marrakesh Treaty have swept in a new legal paradigm. This book contributes to disability rights scholarship, and builds on ideas of digital equality and rights to access in its analysis of domestic disability anti-discrimination, civil rights, human rights, constitutional rights, copyright and other equality measures that promote and hinder reading equality. A valuable resource for advocates, law makers, librarians and others who seek to reform laws, policies and practices that reduce reading equality Provides a comparative analysis of how copyright and anti-discrimination laws interact Provides an in-depth analysis of advances in international and domestic laws
Discrimination Laundering
by Green Tristin K.While discrimination in the workplace is often perceived to be undertaken at the hands of individual or 'rogue' employees acting against the better interest of their employers, the truth is often the opposite: organizations are inciting discrimination through the work environments that they create. Worse, the law increasingly ignores this reality and exacerbates the problem. In this groundbreaking book, Tristin K. Green describes the process of discrimination laundering, showing how judges are changing the law to protect employers, and why. By bringing organizations back into the discussion of discrimination, with real-world stories and extensive social-science research, Green shows how organizational and legal efforts to minimize discrimination - usually by policing individuals over broader organizational change - are taking us in the wrong direction, and how the law could do better, by creating incentives for organizational efforts that are likely to minimize discrimination, instead of inciting it.
