Final Report of the President's Task Force on Victims of Crime
Governments should enact legislation ensuring that victims' and witnesses' addresses not be made public (or available to the defense) unless the court presents a clear need. Hearsay should be made admissible in preliminary hearings so that victims need not testify in person. Other suggested laws would tighten bail restrictions, abolish the exclusionary rule as it applies to fourth amendment issues, and expand employee assistance programs for crime victims. Police departments should develop training programs that emphasize victims' needs and establish procedures that inform victims of the status of investigations, a major concern. Prosecutors should be ultimately responsible for informing victims of the status of their cases; judges should allow victim input at sentencing, establish separate waiting rooms for prosecution and defense witnesses, and order restitution in cases involving financial loss. Parole boards should also keep victims informed of hearing dates and allow victims to testify. The report also reviews the many ways private agencies can help victims, including psychological treatment, spiritual guidance, and referral services. It proposes that the sixth amendment to the Constitution be amended to allow victims "to be present and to be heard at all critical stages of judicial proceedings." Appendixes include the study methodology, a description of model victim/witness units, reference notes, and a list of witnesses at Task Force hearings.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Contractor Support to Military Operations
Since the end of the Cold War, the U.S. military has increasingly relied on private contractors to accomplish its missions overseas. It does so for a number of reasons, most prominently, a perceived financial savings. Contractors, however, face a number of host-nation legal barriers the U.S. government doesn't have to contend with when acting on its own. This is seen in a wide range of controversies that arise on a recurring basis, involving everything from the exercise of criminal jurisdiction to exemptions from customs, taxes, licenses, and immigration rules. These barriers arguably lead to degraded performance and increased costs to the government - costs that were not considered when the Department of Defense started its rush to outsource and privatize many of the functions previously performed by active-duty personnel. Combined with other significant policy, operational, and legal issues raised by the use of contractor support, these status-related problems call into question the wisdom of increasing our reliance on private means to effect public ends.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Transnational Mortgage Law
This book uncovers and reconstructs the growing body of legal principles and rules governing mortgages that have been developed by different transnational institutions and actors.It shows how mortgages have evolved from a type of real security commonly used to facilitate lending by mitigating credit risk, to a transferable commodity with the potential to affect international financial stability and consumer welfare. In doing so, the book reveals the emergence of new policy objectives and rationales for regulation that have led to changes in the structure and functions of mortgage laws. Characterising this development as a type of transnational law, the book highlights the paradigm shifts in the law of residential mortgages brought about by their increasing global relevance. The analysis reveals tensions between the goals of risk mitigation, financial stability, consumer protection and housing justice.The result is an innovative analysis at the intersection of contract law, property law and international financial regulation. The book portrays transnational mortgage law as a complex field governed by a plurality of socially and economically relevant but potentially conflicting goals and principles.
The Pathology of Plenty
This open access book critically examines the role international law plays in post-colonial countries, which primarily rely on the exploitation of their natural resources for economic and human development. Since the 1990s, expressions such as the 'resource curse' and 'paradox of plenty' have been associated with unequal patterns of power and wealth distribution in post-colonial and neo-colonial countries. They have also been applied to the ecological and social costs of natural resources exploitation, and the planetary costs of mineral resources-based production and consumption patterns. Taking various resource-curse and paradox-of-plenty theories as a starting point, the book illustrates how the law's role in resource-cursed countries is at once constitutive, preventive, remedial and punitive. It does so by engaging with various fields of public international law. The book revisits how rights and principles such as sovereignty over natural resources and economic self-determination were applied in decolonisation processes; studies the proliferation of international treaties protecting foreign property rights; and zooms in on various contract models used in the mineral resources sector to evaluate the distributional choices of cost and revenue. This will be important reading for scholars in the fields of international law and international development.

Competition Law and Collusion in Public Procurement
This book examines infringements of competition law in public procurement settings, evaluating the latest European Procurement Directive 2014/24/EU to examine to what extent its provisions facilitate or deter collusion during specific award procedures.Public contracts account for a significant proportion of EU expenditure. In sectors such as energy, transport, social protection and the provision of health or education services, public authorities are the main purchasers. It is important to ensure that public contracts are awarded in an open, fair and transparent manner that enables domestic and non-domestic firms to compete on an equal basis, with the aim of improving the quality and lowering the price of purchases made by public authorities. This book assesses the competition law enforcement mechanisms that competition regulators bring to the area of public procurement in the attempt to deter bid rigging. It analyzes key tools for the public and private enforcement of competition law in the domain of public contracts, such as the leniency programme, damages claims for bid rigging and the whistle blower programme. The book uses auction theory as benchmark to assess the risk of collusion in the context of procurement procedures and techniques. Offering a holistic analysis informed by research, it makes recommendations for better design, set up and management of public tenders without distorting competition. Highlighting the need to make use of competition law enforcement mechanisms in the battle against collusion in public procurement, it identifies ways in which the procurement process can be improved, to reduce and prevent bid rigging.The book will be of interest to researchers in the field of competition law, public procurement and EU law.

Corporate Criminal Liability in Environmental Jurisprudence
Environmental jurisprudence is a dynamic field that integrates insights from various disciplines, including basic sciences, earth science, economics, and law. At its core, this discipline emphasizes the importance of enforcing rights, as environmental pollution poses significant threats to individuals and society as a whole. The repercussions of pollution are not confined to the immediate vicinity; they can reverberate across vast regions and impact countless future generations. Addressing pollution as a wrong or crime demands a nuanced understanding of the law, making the study of environmental jurisprudence essential.This book explores corporate polluter liability within the framework of environmental jurisprudence. While protective measures for the environment have been embedded in various statutes since the early 20th century, the notion of environmental jurisprudence has only recently come to the forefront of legal discourse. This field is crucial for safeguarding the natural and legal rights of individuals, communities, and the state. With a comprehensive approach that encompasses both national and international dimensions, this book critically engages with the foundational concepts of environmental jurisprudence, exposing the rampant environmental violations perpetrated by corporations and outlining how these entities can be held accountable within regulatory frameworks. Furthermore, it provides a thorough analysis of essential international instruments aimed at combatting corporate-induced environmental degradation, offering recommendations to elevate corporate criminal liability within the realm of environmental jurisprudence scholarship.Highlighting the urgent need for accountability but also inspiring action toward a sustainable future, this book will interest legal scholars researching on criminal liability and environmental law.
Narratives of Consent and Reproductive Subjects
Consent is the golden principle that determines the legality of most medical treatment. However, whilst choice is the much-vaunted central tenet of maternity care, its importance emphasised in policy documents, the lived experience is often rather different, particularly in the case of individuals constructed as 'other'. This collection brings together a range of researchers from multiple disciplines to address the issue of choice in the context of reproduction, focussing upon narratives of consent as they pertain to reproductive subjects who all too often are rendered invisible by the law, by the healthcare professionals treating them, or by society. It explores the contours of consent in England and Wales, engaging with reproductive justice by focussing upon the way in which reproductive subjects are othered, treated differently due to their skin colour, their genetic makeup, the fact that they have a serious mental illness or even those who do not want to be mothers. It presents original research, bringing together multiple perspectives in examining the way in which individuals are rendered invisible in the context of reproductive healthcare. The book will be essential reading for academics and professionals in law, nursing, medicine, midwifery, sociology, ethics and anthropology.
