Download or read book The New Law and Economic Development written by David M. Trubek and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-08-21 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of essays that identify and analyze a new phase in thinking about the role of law in economic development and in the practices of development agencies that support law reform. The authors trace the history of theory and doctrine in this field, relating it to changing ideas about development and its institutional practices. The essays describe a new phase in thinking about the relation between law and economic development and analyze how this rising consensus differs from previous efforts to use law as an instrument to achieve social and economic progress. In analyzing the current phase, these essays also identify tensions and contradictions in current practice. This work is a comprehensive treatment of this emerging paradigm, situating it within the intellectual and historical framework of the most influential development models since World War II.

Download or read book Searching for Contemporary Legal Thought written by Justin Desautels-Stein and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-28 with total page 596 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, law schools have trained students to 'think like a lawyer'. In these times of legal crisis, both in legal education and in global society, what does that mean for the rest of us? In this book, thirty leading international scholars - including Louis Assier-Andrieu, Marianne Constable, Yves Dezalay, Denise Ferreira da Silva, Bryant Garth, Peter Goodrich, Duncan Kennedy, Martti Koskenniemi, Shaun McVeigh, Samuel Moyn, Annelise Riles, Charles Sabel and William Simon - examine what is distinctive about legal thought. They probe the relation between law and time, law and culture, and legal thought and legal action; the nature of current legal thought; the geography of legal thought; and the conditions for recognition of a new 'contemporary' style of law. This work will help theorists, social scientists, historians and students understand the intellectual context of legal problems, legal doctrine, and jurisprudential trends in the current conjuncture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading legal scholars and philosophers provide a breadth of perspectives and inspire stimulating debate around the transformations of jurisprudence in a globalized world. This innovative book considers modifications to jurisprudence’s methodological approaches driven by globalization, the concepts and theoretical tools required to account for putative new forms of legal phenomena, and normative issues relating to the legitimacy and democratic character of these legal orders.

Download or read book The Universal History of Legal Thought written by Roberto Mangabeira Unger and published by Deep Freedom Books. This book was released on 2021-01-29 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay explores the contradictory coexistence between two approaches to law that have been dominant in all major legal traditions: law as the normative order chosen by the legitimate and effective holders of power in the state and law as a normative order implicit in social life -- a series of detailed models of what relations among people can and should look like in different parts of social experience. The rudimentary form of the first approach is legal thought as the interpretation of law laid down by the sovereign. The simplest form of the second approach is legal thought as authoritative doctrine developed by jurists and judges in the absence of legislation or as its most important source. The central problems of legal theory result from the impossibility of reconciling these two views of law. The solution to those problems is not theoretical; it is practical: the changes in the organization of society, the economy, and the state that would make democratic self-government a reality -- rather than the sham that it continues to be -- and transform the character of both legislation and legal doctrine. Such a practical solution, however, requires, to guide it, a revolution in our thinking about the institutional and ideological regimes, expressed as law, that shape social life. The foremost task of legal thought today, and the answer to the enigmas of its universal history, is to contribute to the development of that way of thinking.

Download or read book Globalization and Private Law written by Michael Faure and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book explores the relationship between private law and globalization. It examines the consequences of the fact that law making now takes place in a globalized world which increasingly leads to questions of accountability and legitimacy of the law making process. Within this work, European and South African scholars deal with the relationship between private law and globalization in fourteen innovative chapters, addressing inter alia globalization, democracy and accountability, harmonization versus decentralization, public law issues, corporate governance, procedural issues as well as human rights and the environment. This well-documented and original study will be a valuable resource for academics and legal practitioners as well as students. Specialists in private law, transnational law, international law and legal theory should also not be without this important book.

Download or read book International Legal Theory written by Jeffrey L. Dunoff and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-04 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decades international affairs have been increasingly legalized. International law has dramatically expanded into new fields and taken on new challenges. Despite this development, there has been little in-depth scholarship on what impact these changes have had on the field of international legal theory, how it is taught, and where it is going. This volume investigates the major developments in the field and explores the core assumptions and concepts, analytical tools, and key challenges associated with different approaches. An outstanding team of legal academics provides an accessible overview of competing theoretical movements, and a more in-depth understanding of the strengths, preoccupations, insights, and limits of those schools of thought. The contributions provide an authoritative account of current thinking about the theoretical foundations of contemporary international law and will serve as an indispensable resource for students, scholars, and practitioners.

Book excerpt: To understand globalized law it is necessary to bring together insights gained from disparate strands of study: international political economy, economic law, human rights law, and the law of war. Focusing on WTO, the UN, the World Bank, and the IMF, Globalization and Law shows how their legal and regulatory regimes are linked to the politics of world markets. It also looks at the operation of law and economy at a national level where globalized law can be seen in action. Chapters consider the politics of oil and human rights in Nigeria, and the invasion and 'reconstruction' of Iraq. Other broad themes are also examined. Looking at the fate of people in the third world who are the subjects of economic development and development law, we can bring to light the power relationships and ideologies that are attendant on the development project. In conclusion, it is argued that we need to engage with the claims to humanity that lie behind the notion of human rights, the war against terrorism and military intervention. Globalized law raises fraught questions about the role of international regimes and the interests and values in whose name they claim to operate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive introduction to global legal thought. It argues that economic globalization and digitalization have induced significant insecurity about the future of human social organization. While traditional international law as a system based on the consent of national states is in the process of rapid adaptation to its new social preconditions, a variety of transnational regulatory levels compete for legal authority. In this process of change, there is more need than ever to guide the theoretical understanding because academic concepts have a crucial influence on the emerging practice of global law. This book highlights which choices are available and argues that global law requires taking a stand in mutually irreconcilable choices.

Book excerpt: At the Montesquieu seminars, new developments in legal theory are explored and discussed. Fundamental problems experienced in the (practices of) law are reflected critically. A broad range of disciplines contribute at these attempts of sustained critical reflection. No particular school of legal theory is preferred over another. Tilburg Law School has an open mind for new approaches to law and does not want to limit the debate to the agenda set by some school, movement, or discipline. As a result, while the seminars are conceived around urgent actual problems, the focus is interdisciplinary. Due to this, the Montesquieu seminars are especially interesting for national and local politicians, students, policy makers, advisory bodies, entrepreneurs, business management, advocacy, and the judiciary. This book contains a written version of the sixth Montesquieu seminar, which was held in September 2009 by William Twining.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legal historian G. Edward White recently described it as the "most widely circulated and cited unpublished manuscript in twentieth-century American legal scholarship since Hart & Sacks' Legal Process materials." It began the re-evaluation of law in the Gilded Age, and gave it its current name of Classical Legal Thought. It was also one of the first and most influential of the works that introduced European critical theory and structuralism into the study of American law. This reprint comes with a substantial new Introduction that puts the work in context and relates it to current scholarship in the field. It should interest historians generally as well as readers curious about how our legal system got its special modern character --
