Product Description:


This book delves into the nature of governance in Asia both at government and corporate level. It reviews the history and suggests potential solutions for years of underperformance due to the corrupt practices that have developed because of a poor understanding of corporate governance. The authors are experts in practices in Asia and their views are expressed in a sympathetic manner, at no time insisting that a western model of governance is correct. Instead the authors advise local models appropriate to the state of development and suggest that individual countries institute behavioral models that will mature as nations quickly develop in an increasingly global world.http://ifile.it/75jfuy3/1403905606.zipfile:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/libz/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/1.jpg

By Michael Head, Scott Mann

Number Of Pages:  421
Publication Date:  2005-12-30
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0868408344

Product Description:

Law in Perspective is intended to encourage critical, responsible, and creative thinking about law as a system of ideas and a social institution. Written partly as a textbook for first-year law students, it explores the relationships between law, logic, and science; examines the socio-economic role of law; and asks what role the legal system plays in alleviating or exacerbating contemporary social problems, such as crime and punishment, terrorism, regees and tort law reform.
To place law in its historical, philosophical, economic, political and social contexts, Michael Head and Scott Mann focus upon a range of powerful critical thinking tools in the form of ideas and techniques drawn from logic, science, ethics, and political and social theory.

International Competition Law: A New Dimension for the WTO?

By Martyn D. Taylor

---

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  520
Publication Date:  2006-10-09
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521863899
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521863896
Binding:  Hardcover

---

Product Description:

Should an international competition agreement be incorporated into the World Trade Organization? Taylor examines this question, arguing that such an agreement would be beneficial. Existing initiatives towards the regulation of cross-border, anti-competitive conduct have clear limitations that could be overcome by an agreement, and the WTO would provide the optimal institutional vehicle for it. At a practical level, Taylor points out, an international competition agreement could address under-regulation and over-regulation in the trade-competition regulatory matrix, realising substantive benefits to international trade and competition. This book identifies the appropriate content and structure for a plurilateral competition agreement and proposes a draft negotiating text with accompanying commentary, and as such will be an invaluable tool for policy-makers, WTO negotiators, competition and trade lawyers, and international jurists.

Housing and Property Restitution Rights of Refugees and Displaced Persons: Laws, Cases, and Materials

By Scott Leckie

---

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  592
Publication Date:  2007-05-28
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521858755
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521858755
Binding:  Hardcover

---

Product Description:
The legal recognition of the housing, land, and property rights of refugees and displaced persons has expanded steadily in recent years as the realization has grown that securing these rights will be beneficial to long-term peace, stability, economic vitality, and justice. This volume contains more than 240 of the laws, cases, and materials that have been adopted during the past century, which accord those unjustly and arbitrarily displaced from their homes and lands with rights: not simply to return to their countries or places of origin, but to return to the original home, land, or property from which they were initially forced to flee. The breadth of the restitution standards found within this volume, combined with selected examples of case law and other materials, are a clear indication that a right to housing, land, and property restitution for refugees and displaced persons has emerged within the global legal domain.

Emerging from international society, international law reflects the particular characteristics of this society, as well as the relationships among the actors in the system. This analysis advances our understanding of the influences of international norms and international institutions on international cooperation. Its contributors cast new light on the factors enhancing, or impeding, cooperation among states. The insights gained suggest ways for enhancing states' incentives to cooperate through the design of norms and institutions.

Transitional Justice in the Twenty-First Century: Beyond Truth versus Justice

By Naomi Roht-Arriaza, Javier Mariezcurrena

---

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  360
Publication Date:  2006-10-09
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521860105
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521860109
Binding:  Hardcover

---

Product Description:

Dealing with the aftermath of civil conflict or the fall of a repressive government continues to trouble countries throughout the world. Whereas much of the 1990s was occupied with debates concerning the relative merits of criminal prosecutions and truth commissions, by the end of the decade a consensus emerged that this either/or approach was inappropriate and unnecessary. A second generation of transitional justice experiences have stressed both truth and justice and recognize that a single method may inadequately serve societies rebuilding after conflict or dictatorship. Based on studies in ten countries, this book analyzes how some combine multiple institutions, others experiment with community-level initiatives that draw on traditional law and culture, whilst others combine internal actions with transnational or international ones. The authors argue that transitional justice efforts must also consider the challenges to legitimacy and local ownership emerging after external military intervention or occupation.

Deliberative Democracy and the Institutions of Judicial Review

By Christopher F. Zurn

---

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  374
Publication Date:  2007-03-26
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521867347
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521867344
Binding:  Hardcover

---

Product Description:

Christopher F. Zurn shows why a normative theory of deliberative democratic constitutionalism yields the best understanding of the legitimacy of constitutional review. He further argues that this function should be institutionalized in a complex, multilocation structure including not only independent constitutional courts but also legislative and executive self-review that would enable interbranch constitutional dialogue and constitutional amendment through deliberative civic constitutional forums. Drawing on sustained critical analyses of diverse pluralist and deliberative democratic arguments concerning the legitimacy of judicial review, Zurn concludes that constitutional review is necessary to ensure the procedural requirements for legitimate democratic self-rule through deliberative cooperation. Claiming that pure normative theory is not sufficient to settle issues of institutional design, Zurn draws on empirical and comparative research to propose reformed institutions of constitutional review that encourage the development of fundamental law as an ongoing project of democratic deliberation and decision.

Accounting Principles for Lawyers (Law Practitioner Series)

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  226

ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521607221
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521607223
Binding:  Hardcover

---

Product Description:

Many lawyers, especially those dealing with commercial matters, need to understand accounting yet feel on shaky ground in the area. This book is written specifically for them. It breaks down and makes clear basic concepts (such as the difference between profit and cash flow), the accounting profession and the legal and regulatory framework within which accounting operates. The relevant provisions of the Companies Act 1985 are discussed at some length. Holgate explains generally accepted accounting principles in the UK (GAAP), the trend towards global harmonisation and the role of international accounting standards. He then deals with specific areas such as group accounts, acquisitions, tax, leases, pensions, financial instruments, and realised profits, focusing in each case on those aspects that are likely to confront lawyers in their work. This book will appeal to the general practitioner as well as to lawyers working in corporate, commercial, and tax law.

Business Law in the Global Market Place: the effects on international business

By Peter A. Nayler

---

Publisher:  Butterworth-Heinemann
Number Of Pages:  288
Publication Date:  2005-10-18
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0750660058
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780750660051
Binding:  Paperback

---

Product Description:

The study of Law forms a component of many undergraduate and postgraduate programs. Its inclusion does not aim to equip business practitioners with skill and expertise to render professional legal advice unnecessary, but more to provide a legal framework of reference in which both strategic and more immediate business issues can be placed. Equipping managers with a basic understanding of how law impacts upon business activity can help them avoid legal pitfalls in the first place or at least identify potential problems at an early stage, to avoid inconvenience and cost.

International business can present problems that are not present in a purely domestic transaction. Any law component in a management program should embrace it and by doing so the business practitioner can be familiarized with the wider picture in which modern business, aided by technological development, is increasingly practiced.

* Shows the legal dimensions in managerial decisions both nationally and internationally
* Familiarizes the reader with legal issues from a practical business perspective in plain and jargon-free language
* Uses numerous examples to illustrate the legal principles under consideration

Corporate Reporting and Company Law (Cambridge Studies in Corporate Law)

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  358

ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521837936

Binding:  Hardcover

Product Description:

The importance of disclosure as a regulatory device in company law is widely recognized. This book explores the disclosure requirements of companies in their reporting activities, and seeks to bring together the main features of the reporting system. The book considers the theoretical basis of the corporate reporting system and describes the regulatory framework for that system. It explores financial reporting and 'narrative' reporting, highlighting the fact that financial reporting requirements are more substantially developed than narrative reporting requirements - a consequence of the shareholder-centred vision that persists in company law. The roles of those responsible for providing corporate reports and those entitled to receive such information are examined. The book concludes with some broad suggestions for future development, with particular focus on the need to recognize the relevance of the communicative role of corporate reporting. The use of new technology also presents both challenges and opportunities for improving the regime.

Product Description:

Providing a detailed analysis of the legal principles in England & Wales, this book looks at governing compensation claims for the lasting trauma caused by child abuse. Its pages discuss the merits and demerits of different forms of action as mechanisms for imposing liability for abuse, how compensable psychiatric damage can be proved and how the law deals with complex issues of duty of care, causation and extending limitation periods in the context of abuse cases. Whilst a substantial portion of the book deals with civil claims by the abused for the psychological harm caused by the abuse, coverage also extends to litigation by other parties involved directly or indirectly in abuse allegations. Also included is a significant comparative element, drawing upon jurisdictions such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand, as a means of speculating how our own legal system might develop.

Product Description:

Extreme Prematurity examines the controversial issues surrounding the clinical management of this group of neonates by the intervention of modern neonatal intensive care. The foregoing of life-sustaining treatment is of particular importance. The subject matter is very relevant because of the alarming increase in multiple and preterm births due to the increase in women who are undergoing assisted reproductive procedures and the large increase in premature labor. No recent book covers the subject in such comparable breadth. The first section of this very timely monograph covers the epidemiology and practices in different parts of the world. The second section covers bioethics considerations, including ethical theories, moral principles and quality of life issues. The third section covers national and international guidelines. The last section covers medical law aspects in the US and around the world.

Negotiating Trade: Developing Countries in the WTO and NAFTA

By John S. Odell

---

Publisher:  Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages:  310
Publication Date:  2006-03-06
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521861780
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521861786
Binding:  Hardcover

---

Product Description:

Negotiations between governments shape the world political economy and in turn the lives of people everywhere. Developing countries have become far more influential in talks in the World Trade Organization, including infamous stalemates in Seattle in 1999 and Canc煤n in 2003, as well as bilateral and regional talks like those that created NAFTA. Yet social science does not understand well enough the process of negotiation, and least of all the roles of developing countries, in these situations. This book sheds light on three aspects of this otherwise opaque process: the strategies developing countries use; coalition formation; and how they learn and influence other participants' beliefs. This book will be valuable for many readers interested in negotiation, international political economy, trade, development, global governance, or international law. Developing country negotiators and those who train them will find practical insights on how to avoid pitfalls and negotiate better.
