The Making of Constitutional Democracy
This book investigates the deep conceptual structure of the distinction between the creation and the application of law. Legal philosophers either take the distinction for granted or, when they address it directly, they do so only for the purpose of criticizing it as just another upshot of legal formalism. The latter approach suggests the distinction is either unsound or, at the very least, useless. But supporters of this stance do not realize the implications of their positions, which transcend legal/theoretical discourse and raise serious problems in both political and constitutional theory. This book demonstrates that the distinction between the creation and application of law, properly understood, is a central feature of jurisprudence, fundamental to the justification of a legal order, and essential to the separation of powers and the rule of law.

British Literature and Print Culture
The complexity of print culture in Britain between the seventeenth and nineteenth century is investigated in these wide-ranging articles. The essays collected here offer examinations of bibliographical matters, publishing practices, the illustration of texts in a variety of engraved media, little studied print culture genres, the critical and editorial fortunes of individual works, and the significance of the complex interrelationships that authors entertained with booksellers, publishers, and designers. They investigate how all these relationships affected the production of print commodities and how all the agents involved in the making of books contributed to the cultural literacy of reade...
Socialising Tourism
Once touted as the world’s largest industry and also a tool for fostering peace and global understanding, tourism has certainly been a major force shaping our world. The recent COVID-19 crisis has led to calls to transform tourism and reset it along more ethical and sustainable lines. It was in this context that calls to "socialise tourism" emerged (Higgins-Desbiolles, 2020). This edited volume builds on this work by employing the term Socialising Tourism as a broad conceptual focal point and guiding term for industry, activists and academics to rethink tourism for social and ecological justice. Socialising Tourism means reorienting travel and tourism based on the rights, interests, and sa...
Extremes and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems
Written by a team of international experts, Extremes and Recurrence in Dynamical Systems presents a unique point of view on the mathematical theory of extremes and on its applications in the natural and social sciences. Featuring an interdisciplinary approach to new concepts in pure and applied mathematical research, the book skillfully combines the areas of statistical mechanics, probability theory, measure theory, dynamical systems, statistical inference, geophysics, and software application. Emphasizing the statistical mechanical point of view, the book introduces robust theoretical embedding for the application of extreme value theory in dynamical systems. Extremes and Recurrence in Dyna...
