Legal and Economic Principles of World Trade Law
by Petros C. Mavroidis Henrik HornThe World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement covers international commerce in goods and services including measures that directly affect trade, such as import tariffs and quotas, and almost any type of internal measure with an impact on trade. Legal and Economic Principles of World Trade Law contributes to the analysis of the texts of World Trade Law in law and economics, reporting work done to identify improvements to the interpretation of the Agreement. It starts with background studies, the first summarizes The Genesis of the GATT, which highlights the negotiating history of the GATT 1947-1948; the second introduces the economics of trade agreements. These are followed by two main studies. The first, authored by Bagwell, Staiger, and Sykes discusses legal and economic aspects of the GATT regulation of border policy instruments, such as import tariffs and import quotas. The second, written by Grossman, Horn, and Mavroidis, focuses on the core provision for the regulation of domestic policy instruments – the National Treatment principles in Art. III GATT.
Legal and Ethical Challenges of Artificial Intelligence from an International Law Perspective (Law, Governance and Technology Series #46)
by Themistoklis TzimasThis book focuses on the legal regulation, mainly from an international law perspective, of autonomous artificial intelligence systems, of their creations, as well as of the interaction of human and artificial intelligence. It examines critical questions regarding both the ontology of autonomous AI systems and the legal implications: what constitutes an autonomous AI system and what are its unique characteristics? How do they interact with humans? What would be the implications of combined artificial and human intelligence? It also explores potentially the most important questions: what are the implications of these developments for collective security –from both a state-centered and a human perspective, as well as for legal systems? Why is international law better positioned to make such determinations and to create a universal framework for this new type of legal personality? How can the matrix of obligations and rights of this new legal personality be construed and what would be the repercussions for the international community? In order to address these questions, the book discusses cognitive aspects embedded in the framework of law, offering insights based on both de lege lata and de lege ferenda perspectives.

Legal and Ethical Regulation of Biomedical Research in Developing Countries
by Remigius N. NwabuezeThere has been a rapid increase in the pace and scope of international collaborative research in developing countries in recent years. This study argues that whilst ethical regulation of biomedical research in Africa and other developing countries has attracted global attention, legal liability issues, such as the application of common law rules and the development of legally enforceable regulations, have been neglected. It examines some of the major research scandals in Africa and suggests a new ethical framework against which clinical trials could be conducted. The development of research guidelines in Uganda, Tanzania, Malawi and Nigeria are also examined as well as the role of ethics committees. Providing a detailed analysis of the law of negligence and its application to research ethics committees and their members, common law and constitutional forms of action and potential negligence claims, the book concludes by suggesting new protocols and frameworks, improved regulation and litigation. This book will be a valuable guide for students, researchers, and policy-makers with an interest in medical law and ethics, bioethics, customary law in Africa and regulation in developing countries.
Legal and Ethical Retributivism: A Restorative Analysis (Routledge Research in Legal Philosophy)
by Halil CesurThis book explores a foundational philosophical tension in contemporary retributivism, revealing ambiguities in its approach to punishment between two conflicting conceptions of restoration: legal justice and ethical love. Through an analysis of the three parties involved in a crime – the victim, the offender and the state – it argues that neo-retributivism has not sufficiently incorporated the ethical face of punishment into its theoretical framework. The pull of legal justice is often so strong that the voice of ethical love is silenced; neo-retributivism is at an impasse. To navigate this, the book engages with contemporary critical criminal justice scholarship, introducing the ideal of loving justice while highlighting an unresolved tension between penal reformism and abolitionism.The book will be of interest to academicians and researchers working in the areas of philosophy of punishment, criminal law theory, criminal justice, restorative justice, philosophy of law, political philosophy and Hegel scholarship.
Legal and Ethical Standards in Corporate Insolvency (Routledge Research in Corporate Law)
by Elizabeth StretenRecent financial crisis and the global financial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have brought renewed interest to the regulation and practice of corporate insolvency and restructuring.Modernisation of the insolvency profession, and the regulation of its practitioners, is a contemporary concern and recent years have seen significant reforms of insolvency law. The success of such reforms can be enhanced through a clear understanding of difficulties faced by the insolvency profession in achieving successful restructuring and insolvency outcomes and through the determination of effective solutions to those difficulties. However, there is limited empirical data to inform the day-to-day practice of insolvency, nor the difficulties experienced by insolvency practitioners in pursing insolvency and restructuring solutions. This book addresses this absence of data and understanding, examining the role and practice of corporate insolvency practitioners and exploring the challenges that they encounter.Offering an empirical study together with a comparative analysis of the experiences of practitioners around the world, this book facilitates a greater understanding of corporate insolvency practice, confronting a misunderstanding of, and under-confidence in, corporate insolvency practitioners, making it key reading for academics, practitioners and regulators working in the area of corporate insolvency.
Legal and Financial Aspects of Project Finance in Africa (Routledge Studies on Law in Africa)

It also covers management of disputes and the principles of bankability. Offering a global yet harmonised view of applicable regulatory frameworks, the book is a practical and comprehensive guide to project finance and business law in Africa.This book will be of interest to practitioners, researchers and students in the field of finance law, business and banking law and law in Africa.

Legal and Geopolitical Complexity in the Arctic: The Impact of Global Crises on Regional Competition (Routledge Research in Polar Law)
by Tiziana MelchiorreThis book examines the evolving geopolitical landscape of the Arctic, focusing on the impact of climate change and the war in Ukraine on regional and international relations from a legal and geopolitical perspective.As Arctic ice melts, newly accessible natural resources and transportation routes are intensifying territorial and maritime disputes, heightening competition and tensions among regional states. The war in Ukraine has further strained relations between the West and Russia, disrupting political, economic, and scientific cooperation while accelerating the militarisation of the Arctic. In response to Russia’s aggressive actions in Eastern Europe, Western states have expanded their military presence in the region, while Russia has modernised its Arctic military infrastructure. Through analysing these developments, the book highlights the interconnection between regional and global dynamics. It argues that climate change and geopolitical conflict are transforming the Arctic from the ‘last frontier’ into the ‘first frontier’; a strategic arena where states, both within and beyond the region, seek to assert their geopolitical and economic interests. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach that integrates international relations, international law, and history, this book provides a comprehensive examination of the Arctic’s legal and geopolitical complexities.The book will be of interest to researchers in the field of international relations and public international law, as well as environmental and Arctic law.
