New books in Law Library

May 2021

Principles of International Criminal Law is one of the most influential textbooks in the field of international

criminal justice. This fourth edition builds on the highly-successful work of the previous editions, setting

out the general principles governing international crimes as well as the fundamentals of both substantive

and procedural international criminal law. It provides a detailed understanding of the sources and

evolution of international criminal law, demonstrating how it has developed, and how its application has

changed. The book assesses in detail the four key international crimes as defined by the statute of the

International Criminal Court: genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and the crime of aggression.

The new edition revises and updates the work with developments in international criminal justice since

2014. It includes substantial new material on critical perspectives on international criminal justice, the

fragmentation of international criminal law, new war crimes of prohibited means of warfare, and the

prosecution of crimes committed in Syria and Northern Iraq.The book retains its highly-acclaimed

systematic approach and consistent methodology, making it essential reading for both students and

scholars of international criminal law, as well as practitioners and judges working in the field.

As communities struggle to make sense of mass atrocities, expectations have increasingly been placed

on international criminal courts to render authoritative historical accounts of episodes of mass violence.

Taking these expectations as its point of departure, this book seeks to understand international criminal

courts through the prism of their historical function. The book critically examines how such courts confront

the past by constructing historical narratives concerning both the culpability of the accused on trial and

the broader mass atrocity contexts in which they are alleged to have participated.

The book argues that international criminal courts are host to struggles for historical justice, discursive

contests between different actors vying for judicial acknowledgement of their interpretations of the past.

By examining these struggles within different institutional settings, the book uncovers the legitimating

qualities of international criminal judgments. In particular, it illuminates what tends to be foregrounded

and included within, as well as marginalised and excluded from, the narratives of international criminal

courts in practice. What emerges from this account is a sense of the significance of thinking about the

emancipatory limits and possibilities of international criminal courts in terms of the historical narratives

that are constructed and contested within and beyond the courtroom.

Men have always dominated the most basic precepts of the criminal legal world – its norms, its priorities

and its character. Men have been the regulators and the regulated: the main subjects and objects of

criminal law and by far the more dangerous sex. And yet men, as men, are still hardly talked about as the

determining force within criminal law or in its exegesis. This book brings men into sharp focus, as the

pervasively powerful interest group, whose wants and preoccupations have shaped the discipline. This

constitutes the 'man problem' of criminal law.

This new analysis probes the unacknowledged thinking of generations of influential legal men, which

includes the psychological and legal techniques that have obscured the operation of bias, even to the

legal experts themselves. It explains how men's interests have influenced the most cherished legal

norms, especially the rules of human contact, which were designed to protect men from other men, while

specifically securing lawful sexual access to at least one woman. The aim is to test the discipline's

broadest commitments to civility, and its trajectory towards the final resolution, when men and women

were declared to be equal and equivalent legal persons. In the process it exposes the morally and

intellectually limiting consequences of male power.

This monograph explores the historical position of pensions law in the UK and the recent influences which

have led to the introduction of Auto-Enrolment and subsequent reforms. Alternative models, such as the US

and Australia, are also considered as well as the function of law in bringing about political changes.

The question of saving for retirement is of national and international importance and many governments are

wrestling with the issue of how to deal with the pension funding crisis. Consequently political policy has, in

many cases, combined with behavioural science to inform new laws which have acted to shift the burden

from the state into the private sector. Around the world responsibility is being moved onto individuals and

employers as the state retreats from provision of state support in retirement; this book offers a sophisticated

analysis of the role of legal intervention to facilitate this shift.

The book explores the work of behavioural economics, its global influence on understanding financial

decision-making and its application to legislation which seeks to influence consumer outcomes. Drawing on

qualitative empirical research to explore the experience of implementation of Auto-Enrolment, this timely

work considers the interaction with the work of behavioural science to highlight the social costs of the new

regulatory regime.

As economic entities, commercial trusts are just as transactionally active as companies. Despite their

similarities, however, it is not always appreciated just how different they are from companies, and how little

protection the law offers to those who transact with them. Transacting parties are vulnerable to a range of

risks when dealing with a trust and trustee. Unlike other textbooks and casebooks on trusts, Transacting

with Trusts and Trustees deals with these practical issues in an applied way.

This text is designed to assist students—both law and undergraduate—to achieve a basic understanding of

this complex area of the law, and provide an up to date review for the practitioner. The focus is upon Title VII

of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (race, national origin, sex, and religious discrimination), the Age Discrimination

in Employment Act, and the Americans with Disabilities Act as applied to the workplace. The book addresses

the method of proving violations, both disparate treatment and disparate impact analysis, including a brief

primer of statistical proof, as well as the defenses to the express use of proscribed classifications. Finally, the

book provides a quick reference to the complex procedural and remedial provisions of the statutes.

The religion and state debate in Israel has overlooked the Palestinian-Arab religious communities and their

members, focusing almost exclusively on Jewish religious institutions and norms and Jewish majority

members. Because religion and state debates in many other countries are defined largely by minority

religions' issues, the debate in Israel is anomalous. Michael Karayanni advances a legal matrix that explains

this anomaly by referencing specific constitutional values. At the same time, he also takes a critical look at

these values and presents the argument that what might be seen as liberal and multicultural is at its core just

as illiberal and coercive. In making this argument, A Multicultural Entrapment suggests a set of multicultural

qualifications by which one should judge whether a group based accommodation is of a multicultural nature.

The Future of the Law of Contract brings together an impressive collection of essays on contract law. Taking a

comparative approach, the aim of the book is to address how the law of contract will develop over the next 25

years, as well as considering the ways in which changes to the way that contracts are made will affect the

law.

Topics include good faith; objectivity; exclusion clauses; economic duress; variation of contract; contract and

privacy law in a digital environment; technological change; Choice of Court Agreements; and Islamic finance

contracts.

The chapters are written by leading academics from England, Australia, Canada, the United States,

Singapore and Malaysia. As such, this collection will be of global interest and importance to professionals,

academics and students of contract law.

The doctrine of peremptory norms (jus cogens) is a set of core obligations in international law. In this volume

in the Elements of International Law series, Dinah Shelton explores its origins and history, its revival in the

twentieth century, and its place in international and domestic jurisprudence. Providing a fresh, objective, and

non-argumentative approach to the discipline of international law, the Elements series is an accessible go-to

source for practicing international lawyers, judges and arbitrators, government and military officers, scholars,

teachers, and students.
