This volume offers an in-depth analysis of the social phenomenon of migration from various legal-linguistic perspectives. Migration has become a global phenomenon and a burning issue provoking social conflict and political instability in modern societies all over the world. The question of dealing with migrants and asylum seekers has dominated political discourse. It has given rise to national and international legislation on emigration and immigration, some of them including discriminatory provisions, pressed laws against immigration (Acts of exclusion) and prompted anti-migration rhetoric and hate speech against migrants. Important efforts have been made in both common law and civil law jurisdictions to protect migrants' fundamental rights to dignity and equality.

Nearly every country in the world has a mechanism for executive clemency, which, though residual in most legal systems, serves as a vital due process safeguard and as an outlet for leniency in punishment. While the origins of clemency lie in the historical prerogative powers of once-absolute rulers, modern clemency laws and practices have evolved to be enormously varied. This volume brings comparative and empirical analysis to bear on executive clemency, building a sociological and political context around systematically-collected data on clemency laws, grants, and decision-making. Some jurisdictions have elaborate constitutional and legal structures for pardoning or commuting a sentence whi...
As leis penais em branco apresentam-se como recursos legislativos recorrentes, sobretudo enquanto pontes de ligação do direito penal com os demais ramos, com destaque para o direito administrativo, direito penal econômico e ambiental. Todavia, também a criminalidade de rua é tocada pela técnica legislativa, a exemplo do tráfico de entorpecentes. A doutrina, na intenção de não ignorar a crescente utilização de tais leis, se apressa em erguer bandeiras defendendo sua (in)constitucionalidade, por vezes olvidando da importância de proceder a (prévia e correta) conceituação da referida técnica legislativa. Visamos mostrar, com este estudo, a origem e os fundamentos das leis penai...
