Racism and Human Rights (Nijhoff Law Specials, 58.)
By Raphael Walden
Publisher:Brill Academic Publishers Number Of Pages:176 Publication Date:2004-06 ISBN-10 / ASIN:9004136517 ISBN-13 / EAN:9789004136519 Binding:Paperback
Book Description:
The topical and thought-provoking articles in this volume have been contributed by leading authorities and discuss some of the key issues currently facing the human rights community. Many were originally circulated by the CCJO as its contribution to the vigorous debate at the World Conference Against Racism. The issues discussed include, among others, human rights and the Security Council, slavery, racism on the internet, and religion and human rights. The Consultative Council of Jewish Organizations (CCJO) was founded in 1946 by the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Rene Cassin, who was also its president for many years. As an NGO in consultative status with the United Nations, it has played an active role in the growth of international human rights, both by participating in UN activities, and by lending its weight to human rights campaigns worldwide.

Neptune and the Netherlands: State, Economy, and War at Sea in the Renaissance (History of Warfare, V. 23)
By Louis Sicking
Publisher:Brill Academic Publishers Number Of Pages:551 Publication Date:2004-06 ISBN-10 / ASIN:9004138501 ISBN-13 / EAN:9789004138506 Binding:Hardcover
Book Description:
This book investigates how the rulers of the Habsburg world empire developed and implemented a central maritime policy for the Netherlands and appointed an admiral of the sea or admiral-general for that purpose. It also explains why the Habsburgs were eventually unable to gain control of the maritime affairs of the Netherlands, in spite of the support of the powerful Burgundian Lords of Veere, who occupied the central position of admiral from 1491 to 1558. From their power base on the island of Walcheren in Zeeland, known as the key to the Netherlands at the time because of its central location between Holland, Flanders, Antwerp and the sea, they held an ideal vantage point for exercising the admiralship. The result not only offers an illuminating insight into the organisation of the war fleet, maritime trade and fishery, privateering and prize law in the Habsburg Netherlands, but also puts the success of the later Dutch Republic in a new perspective.

Antitrust and Global Capitalism, 1930 - 2004
(Cambridge Historical Studies in American Law and Society)
By Tony A. Freyer
Publisher:Cambridge University Press Number Of Pages:452 Publication Date:2006-10-09 ISBN-10 / ASIN:0521817889 ISBN-13 / EAN:9780521817882 Binding:Hardcover
Book Description:
By the 1930s, Americans feared that big business exceeded the government's capacity to impose accountability, engendering the most aggressive antitrust campaign in history. Meanwhile, big business had emerged to varying degrees in Britain, Australia, France, Nazi Germany, and militarist Japan. These same nations nonetheless expressly rejected American-style antitrust as unsuited to their cultures and institutions. After World War II, however, governments in these nations, as well as the European Community, adopted workable antitrust regimes. By the millennium, antitrust was instrumental to the clash between state sovereignty and globalization. What ideological and institutional factors explain the global change from opposing to supporting antitrust? Addressing this question, this book throws new light on the struggle over liberal capitalism during the Great Depression and World War II, the postwar Allied occupations of Japan and Germany, the reaction against American big-business hegemony during the Cold War, and the clash over globalization and the WTO.

Heuristics and the Law (Dahlem Workshop Reports)
By Gerd Gigerenzer, Christoph Engel
Publisher:The MIT Press Number Of Pages:501 Publication Date:2006-08-01 ISBN-10 / ASIN:0262072750 ISBN-13 / EAN:9780262072755 Binding:Hardcover
Book Description:
In recent decades, the economists' concept of rational choice has dominated legal reasoning. And yet, in practical terms, neither the lawbreakers the law addresses nor officers of the law behave as the hyperrational beings postulated by rational choice. Critics of rational choice and believers in "fast and frugal heuristics" propose another approach: using certain formulations or general principles (heuristics) to help navigate in an environment that is not a well-ordered setting with an occasional disturbance, as described in the language of rational choice, but instead is fundamentally uncertain or characterized by an unmanageable degree of complexity. This is the intuition behind behavioral law and economics. In Heuristics and the Law, experts in law, psychology, and economics explore the conceptual and practical power of the heuristics approach in law. They discuss legal theory; modeling and predicting the problems the law purports to solve; the process of making law, in the legislature or in the courtroom; the application of existing law in the courts, particularly regarding the law of evidence; and implementation of the law and the impact of law on behavior.

Voices from the Edge: Narratives about the Americans with Disabilities Act
By Ruth O'Brien
Publisher:Oxford University Press, USA Number Of Pages:288 Publication Date:2004-01-15 ISBN-10 / ASIN:0195156862 ISBN-13 / EAN:9780195156867 Binding:Hardcover
Book Description:
Fear, rage, courage, discrimination. These are facts of everyday life for many Americans with disabilities. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), has made working, traveling, and communicating easier for many individuals. But what recourse do individuals have when enforcement of the law
is ambiguous or virtually nonexistent? And how will its changing definition affect individuals' lives-as well as their legal actions-in the future? What is life like in post-ADA America?
Voices from the Edge seeks to challenge the mindset of those who would deny equal protection to the disabled, while providing informative analysis of the intent and application of the ADA for those who wish to learn more about disability rights. Giving voice to the many types of discrimination the
disabled face - at a small Southern College, in the Library of Congress, on a New York City sidewalk - while illustrating the personal stakes underlying legal disputes over the ADA, this collection offers unparalleled insight into the lives behind the law.
Contributors:
Joan Aleshire on disability and the eye of the beholder.
Achim Nowak on disclosing HIV.
C.G.K. Atkins on being an academic liability.
Stephen Kuusisto on hope without the tenure lifeboat.
Leonard Kriegel on wheelchairs vs. NYC sidewalks.

Information Technology and Social Justice
By Emma Rooksby, John Weckert
Publisher: IGI Global Number Of Pages: 292 Publication Date: 2006-10-10 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1591409683 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781591409687 Binding: Hardcover
Product Description:
The term digital divide is still used regularly to characterize the injustice associated with inequalities in access to information and communication technologies (ICTs). As the debate continues and becomes more sophisticated, more and more aspects of the distribution of ICTs are singled out as relevant to characterizations of the digital divide and of its moral status. The best way to articulate the digital divide is to relate it to other aspects of social and distributive justice, using a mixture of pre-existing theories within moral and political philosophy. These theories are complemented with contributions from sociology, communication studies, information systems, and a range of other disciplines. Information Technology and Social Justice presents conceptual frameworks for understanding and tackling digital divides. It includes information on access and skills, access and motivation, and other various levels of access. It also presents a detailed analysis of the benefits and value of access to ICTs.

Handbook of Law and Economics, Volume 1
(Handbook of Law and Economics)
By A. Mitchell Polinsky, Steven Shavell
Publisher: North Holland Number Of Pages: 980 Publication Date: 2007-12-21 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0444531203 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780444531209 Binding: Hardcover
Book Description:
Law can be viewed as a body of rules and legal sanctions that channel behavior in socially desirable directions for example, by encouraging individuals to take proper precautions to prevent accidents or by discouraging competitors from colluding to raise prices. The incentives created by the legal system are thus a natural subject of study by economists. Moreover, given the importance of law to the welfare of societies, the economic analysis of law merits prominent treatment as a subdiscipline of economics. This two volume Handbook is intended to foster the study of the legal system by economists.
*The two volumes form a comprehensive and accessible survey of the current state of the field.
*Chapters prepared by leading specialists of the area.
*Summarizes received results as well as new developments.

Shifts in Compensation between Private and Public Systems
(Tort and Insurance Law)
By Willem H. van Boom, Michael Faure
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publisher: Springer
Number Of Pages: 246
Publication Date: 2007-10-23
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 3211715533
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9783211715536
Binding: Hardcover
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Book Description:
Why have some legal systems abandoned tort law in some areas and replaced it with some form of no-fault compensation scheme or strict liability? What have been the effects? How should we evaluate these shifts? Why have they not been adopted in other countries?
These questions have been the focus of the "Shifts in Compensation" research project and this is the final volume in this series, addressing, on the one hand , the issues relating to shifts in compensation systems at a more general level, and on the other hand, addressing shifts in particular domains. The papers examining the shifts at a more general level provide a framework for the analysis of the various shifts and explain the shifts towards an increasing use of strict liability and no-fault regimes. To what extent shifts in compensation can be explained by insurance markets and their relative flexibility is also dealt with. In addition, shifts in the specific areas of medical mishaps and disasters are also examined.
This book brings together lawyers and economists from various jurisdictions thus providing a multidisciplinary approach to tort law and alternative instruments.

Publisher: Springer Number Of Pages: 680 Publication Date: 2007-03-14 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0387341129 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780387341125 Binding: Hardcover
Book Description:
Statistics in Criminal Justice takes an approach that emphasizes the uses of statistics in research in crime and justice. This text is meant for students and professionals who want to gain a basic understanding of statistics in this field. The text takes a building-block approach, meaning that each chapter helps to prepare the student for the chapters that follow. It also means that the level of sophistication of the text increases as the text progresses. Throughout the text there is an emphasis on comprehension and interpretation, rather than computation. However, it takes a serious approach to statistics, which is relevant to the real world of research in crime and justice. This approach is meant to provide the reader with an accessible but sophisticated understanding of statistics that can be used to examine real-life criminal justice problems. The goal of the text is to give the student a basic understanding of statistics and statistical concepts that will leave the student with the confidence and the tools for tackling more complex problems on their own. Statistics in Criminal Justice is meant not only as an introduction for students but as a reference for researchers.
A number of changes have been made to the 3rd edition, including the following:
- Additional exercises at the end of each chapter
- Expanded computer exercises that can be performed in the Student Version of SPSS
- Extended discussion of multivariate regression models, including interaction and non-linear effects
- A new chapter on multinomial and ordinal logistic regression models, examined in a way that highlights comprehension and interpretation
- With the additional material on multivariate regression models, the text is appropriate for both undergraduate and beginning graduate statistics courses in criminal justice

He explores the duty to prevent genocide, and the consequences this may have on the emerging law of humanitarian intervention.
