Lawfare
This book develops a new conceptualisation of lawfare that recognises the polysemantic nature of the term. Drawing on theoretical developments from legal anthropology, international relations, and social theory, the book scrutinises the multiple dimensions of this phenomenon. It illustrates the multifaceted character of lawfare with a wide range of historical and contemporary cases from across the globe and analyses the implications of actors pursuing political objectives through legal means. This includes the use of lawfare by states as a legal instrument to accomplish geopolitical objectives, domestic lawfare, or the use of legal instruments to undermine internal opposition, and state lawf...

Lawfare — Judicial Warfare in Spain
For centuries, the Spanish state has proved to be an expert system for repressing political dissent and any threat that could jeopardize the maintenance of the status quo. It has done so using all the institutions and all the areas of power that were necessary, for the end has always justified the means. Carles Mundo, Catalan Minister of Justice, 2016-2017. There is no book in Spain that talks about lawfare. Nor is there a book that deals with the system of judicial repression of political dissidence deployed by the Franco regime. Nor is there a book that denounces the judicial system inherited from the dictatorial regime and that was later embodied in the 1978 Constitution. Lawfare (the com...
La Justicia en el banquillo
¿Están nuestros jueces preparados para dejar sus creencias y su ideología fuera de las salas de juicio? ¿Hasta qué punto nuestra judicatura es capaz de ser imparcial, de resolver las cuestiones sin tomar partido ni dejarse influir por sus propios intereses? En los últimos tiempos, la sociedad española ha empezado a ver a no pocos jueces como actores políticos. Ya no son considerados árbitros neutrales y discretos que, al margen de su propia ideología, se encargan de que las ideas mayoritarias expresadas en leyes democráticas se conviertan en realidad. Si los jueces no son ideológicamente neutrales, todo el edificio del imperio de la ley se convierte en puro decorado. Sin embargo,...
El régimen jurídico convencional de la libertad de expresión en América Latina
La libertad de expresión suscita un debate siempre abierto. Su importancia y constantes transformaciones empujan a que el interés sobre ella no decaiga pese al paso del tiempo. Este libro se ubica en el corazón de este debate, pues desarrolla el régimen jurídico que le corresponde a partir de la Convención Americana sobre Derechos Humanos y los precedentes de la Corte Interamericana (ambos aplicables a básicamente toda América Latina), apoyándose también en los estándares derivados de otros órganos convencionales de los sistemas universal y europeo de derechos humanos y en la jurisprudencia de cortes locales de Latinoamérica. El libro analiza su estatus iusfundamental (estructur...
The EU Anti-Corruption Report
This book analyses the development of anti-corruption as a policy field in the European Union with a particular focus on the EU Anti-Corruption Report. It reconstructs the origins of anti-corruption policy in the 1990s when the EU started to recognise corruption as a serious crime with a cross-border dimension. It also analyses the processes surrounding the downfall of the Santer Commission on charges of corruption in 1999 and the enlargement of the EU. This incorporation of transitional new Member States was accompanied by a number of specific measures, instruments and monitoring mechanisms to combat corruption at the supranational level, finally leading to the introduction of the EU-wide A...
