Conseil Prive and the Parlements in the Age of Louis XIV
This vol., while encompassing the entire reign of Louis XIV & all the parlements of the realm, has the narrow focus of investigating the impact of royal policy on the judicial authority of the parlements as revealed in their relations with the king's councils, notably the one that specialized in judicial affairs, the Conseil Prive. This is above all a study of the evolution of conciliar jurisprudence & judicial procedure, as much an exercise in what the French call "l'histoire du droit" as an opportunity to observe in a novel way the resolution of some of the most pressing political problems in the Age of Louis XIV. But the overall aim is to understand the practical consequences of royal absolutism for the kingdom's highest judicial institutions.
Choice of Forum Clauses in Asia
This book compares and explains the approaches taken by Asian courts when choice of forum clauses in international commercial contracts are challenged in litigation. It examines key common law jurisdictions (Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia), civil law jurisdictions (China, Japan, and Indonesia), and hybrid jurisdictions (the Philippines). With Asia's ascent in cross-border trade and investment, alongside a corresponding increase in cross-border litigation, understanding how Asian courts address choice of forum clauses in international commercial contracts has never been more critical. Employing a comparative law method, the book identifies and explains the relief and remedies used by Asian courts in enforcing choice of forum clauses, analysing how their classification as either contractual or procedural in nature shapes judicial approaches. It further distinguishes choice of forum clauses from arbitration agreements and explores their interaction with other contractual provisions. Party autonomy - as the parties' freedom to determine the contents of the choice of forum clause and the freedom to control the flow of litigation - is also critically scrutinised. Furthermore, the book investigates the factors courts consider in resolving key choice of forum clause issues (ie, enforceability; specific relief to be granted; existence, validity, interpretation of choice of forum clauses; role of mandatory rules, public policy, and international interests) and explores the prospects for future development of this area of law in Asia. Crucially, the book highlights the unique approaches of Asian courts, while underscoring the differences and similarities among common law, civil law, and hybrid jurisdictions.
Artificial Intelligence in Biobanking
This insightful collection highlights the ethical, legal and societal issues associated with the increasing role played by artificial intelligence (AI) in medical biobanks, a key research resource in the global study of disease prevention and the improving of individual care.Although AI has the potential to speed up health research, the book considers the numerous questions that the technology poses, from the building of trust to the prevention harm to individuals, vulnerable groups or entire populations. Examining the tension between scientific progress and the safeguarding of individual rights, and covering key issues such as accountability, data bias, transparency and liability, the book considers the legal landscape in which biobanks operate, and what layers of governance are required to oversee such an important resource in a fluid technological age.A timely volume that brings together scholars and experts from the social sciences, ethics and law, this important book will interest researchers and professionals in Biomedicine, Law, and the broader Health Sciences.
Emerging Constitutionalism in South Sudan
This book offers the first ever in-depth analysis of the emerging constitutionalism in South Sudan and the challenges it faces. The book critically analyses the constitution-making processes that occurred in South Sudan between 2005 and 2011, finding, among other things, that there was a failure of constitutional discourse, particularly in relation to the 2011 drafting process of the Transitional Constitution. It goes on to analyse how the constitution is being implemented. It finds that, despite the clear division of powers and functions between the national government and the sub-national governments, what has emerged in South Sudan in the post-constitution-making period is a form of coercive centralism where the national government controls much of the political decision-making process. This has had serious implications for democracy, constitutionalism, and the rule of law. Finally, bearing in mind the failure in both how the transitional constitution was made and how it is being implemented, the book undertakes a critical analysis of the proposed process for drafting a new constitution for South Sudan. It identifies serious shortcomings and proposes how these could be addressed to enhance the process.
EU Consumer Protection in Cloud Computing Contracts
This book assesses whether EU consumer law effectively protects consumers in cloud computing contracts. From music subscriptions and streaming services to online gaming and social networks, cloud-based services are an integral part of our daily lives. Understanding the legal landscape of cloud computing is therefore crucial. The convenience of cloud computing raises significant legal questions about consumer rights. What if all emails are lost? Can someone unauthorised access online photos? Is it possible to cancel a video streaming subscription or transfer music elsewhere? The book scrutinises the adequacy of EU consumer contract law in addressing these issues, evaluating its coherence and effectiveness in safeguarding consumers' interests and fostering trust in cloud services. It looks at the entire lifecycle of a cloud computing contract, highlighting critical consumer problems, such as unclear information, service availability, data integrity, and unbalanced contract terms. Written for legal scholars, practitioners, policymakers and market participants, the book offers a comprehensive analysis of EU law provisions on cloud computing contracts. As cloud technology continues to evolve and integrate into mainstream IT solutions, ensuring a robust and consistent legal framework is paramount for consumer protection and the advancement of the EU digital market.
Constitutionally Conforming Interpretation - Comparative Perspectives
This is the second part of a 2-volume set which presents an in-depth investigation into the canon of constitutionally conforming interpretation. This second volume builds upon the insights of the first volume, which includes national reports on the use of constitutional interpretation. In Volume 2, the analysis is extended beyond the national context, discussing its application in the supranational and international contexts, including in EU law and the domestic use of international law. It presents several critical perspectives, challenging the legitimacy of constitutionally conforming interpretation, and looks at the invisible constitution, constitutional amendments, and the impact of legalism. The volume is rounded off by three comparative analyses, which formulate universally applicable insights. Together with Volume 1, this book fills an important gap in legal scholarship and sets the stage for cross-national discourse on this critical legal method.
