The Dawn of a Discipline
The history of international criminal justice told through the revealing stories of some of its primary intellectual figures.
Public Policy and Public Morality
The book deals with two very important but imprecise terms in contemporary law, namely public policy and public morality. It is commendable that such a comprehensive work about general clauses has been prepared. They are the elements of the common good which refers directly to Article 1 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The aim of these clauses is to protect the integrity of Polish legal order and the reason why they are applied boils down to the public interest. The clauses refer to the extralegal criteria of a moral, economic or political nature. That is why, for a legal practice, it appears vital that experts contribute to the clarification of their content and meaning as a l...

Grandes juristas
El derecho, como fenómeno social, no está constituido únicamente por la ley. El derecho se nos presenta en cuatro dimensiones: las normas, de las que deriva el «derecho normativo o legal»; el hecho jurídico, del que se deriva la costumbre, de los que se desprende el «derecho vivido»; la jurisprudencia, que emana de las sentencias emitidas por los jueces, y, por último, la doctrina, dedicada a la construcción de disciplinas especializadas y a la elaboración de escritos académicos, manuales y tratados. Es en medio de esta última fuente en donde aparecen los juristas, pues son los autores de los libros de doctrina. Dentro de esta obra tendremos la posibilidad de distinguir los distintos roles que cumplen aquellos técnicos formados en las ciencias del derecho que llamamos juristas. La estructura del libro consta de una presentación; una breve reseña sobre el contenido del libro; veinticuatro capítulos que contienen los textos escritos por especialistas, referentes a los juristas en estudio; y al final, se ofrece una breve biografía de cada jurista.

Sex and the State
Abortion, divorce, and the family: how did the state make policy decisions in these areas in Argentina, Brazil, and Chile during the last third of the twentieth century? As the three countries transitioned from democratic to authoritarian forms of government (and back), they confronted challenges posed by the rise of the feminist movement, social changes, and the power of the Catholic Church. The results were often surprising: women's rights were expanded under military dictatorships, divorce was legalized in authoritarian Brazil but not in democratic Chile, and no Latin American country changed its laws on abortion. Sex and the State explores these patterns of gender-related policy reform and shows how they mattered for the peoples of Latin America and for a broader understanding of the logic behind the state's role in shaping private lives and gender relations everywhere.
