Justice, Conflict and Wellbeing
Justice, conflict and wellbeing are large topics that occupy researchers from a variety of disciplines, as well as laypeople and policy makers. The three concepts are closely connected: conflict often (though not always) impairs wellbeing, whereas justice often (though not always) enhances it; perceived injustice is a common source of conflict, at multiple levels and calls for justice are a common response to conflict. In addition, each construct has subtypes, such as distributive and procedural justice, individual and group conflict and physical and psychological wellbeing. Although there are established traditions of research on the topics in multiple disciplines, there is little cross-fer...
Understanding Secured Transactions
"The sixth edition of this clear and concise Understanding treatise thoroughly incorporates and explains the 2022 Amendments to the Uniform Commercial Code. These amendments created a new Article 12 governing the holding and transfer of digital assets such as virtual currencies and non-fungible tokens. Significant portions of Article 9, the main subject of the book, were amended to facilitate the use of these assets as collateral for loans and other obligations. In describing these amendments, this edition explains inherently complex topics related to emerging technologies clearly, so that those without a background in technology may readily understand them. The new edition also expands its coverage of existing concepts, providing numerous examples to help the reader apply legal principles to many different types of commercial finance transactions. The chapter on the effects of bankruptcy on secured transactions has been thoroughly revised and expanded and provides the most comprehensive explanation of that topic available anywhere"--
Introduction to the Law of the United States
Introduction to the Laws.....Series Volume 5 As issues in American law turn up with ever-greater frequency in dozens of countries worldwide, some familiarity with the legal system of the United States of America has become de rigueur for practising lawyers everywhere. This incomparable handbook, now in its Second Edition, provides an authoritative description of the major elements, including all matters likely to emerge in the course of normal legal activity. Written from a clear and cogent comparative perspective, it is of great practical value for both counselling and courtroom use. Eighteen lucid chapters by distinguished American law professors, each of whom is also knowledgeable about a legal system outside that of the United States, explain the major laws, legal standards, and legal institutions of the United States. Substantive and procedural comparisons are presented in plain English, with appropriate commentary where deemed helpful to clarify particularly complex or unsettled matters. The resulting volume is an expert historical, systematic, and critical introduction to the law of the United States.
Property and Sovereignty
This book explores the relationships between property and the concept of sovereignty from a number of different perspectives. It distinguishes between the dual meaning of 'sovereignty' in property discourse - political sovereignty and owner sovereignty. The contributors discuss the nature of sovereignty in both senses, applying it to a wide range of topics such as the evolution of property rights in fragile and conflict-affected nation states, and notions of sovereign property in new worlds. A section on the Arts illuminates the relationships between property, sovereignty, and culture, and a further section investigates regulatory property and governmental control over resources. The book co...
