Post-Emancipation Indenture and Migration
The chapters in this volume contribute to the current scholarship on historical and contemporary migrations by providing new interdisciplinary approaches to historical and contemporary global migratory issues, while simultaneously analyzing ethnicization, identity formation, racialization, citizenship, nationalism, and Tansnationalism. Themes such as border crossing, forced migration, displacement, and statelessness are problematized, and in the process, challenge existing dominant meta narratives. One distinctive feature is how marginalized and silenced voices shift from the margin to the centre of migration narratives, reinforced by the fact that most contributors write from an insider's perspective.
Private International Law in BRICS
This book examines the convergences, divergences and reciprocal lessons that the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) share with one another in developing the principles of private international law. The chapters provide a thematic understanding of the cornerstones of private international law in each of the BRICS countries: namely, (1) the procedure to initiate claims in civil and commercial matters, (2) the law that would govern such matters in litigation and arbitration, as well as (3) the mechanism to recognise and enforce foreign judgments and arbitral awards. Written by leading private international law scholars and practitioners, the chapters draw on domesti...
Consumer Law and Socioeconomic Development
This book reflects the research output of the Committee on the International Protection of Consumers of the International Law Association (ILA). The Committee was created in 2008, with a mandate to study the role of public and private law to protect consumers, review UN Guidelines, and to model laws, international treaties and national legislations concerning protection and consumer redress. It has been accepted to act as an observer not only when the UNCTAD was updating its guidelines, but also at the Hague Conference on Private International Law. The book includes the contributions of various Committee members in the past few years and is a result of the cooperation between the Committee members and experts from Australia, Brazil, Canada and China. It is divided into three parts: the first part addresses trends and challenges in international protection of consumers, while the second part focuses on financial crises and consumer protection and the third part examines national and regional consumer law issues.
Climate Change before International Courts
This book provides a comprehensive analysis of environmental law and climate change litigation within international courts, both substantively and procedurally. Climate change litigation is an area of continuous growth and complexity, particularly within international courts and bodies. This book uses a comparative approach, analysing case law from international sources. It focuses on three key areas, namely trends and features, legal grounds for litigation, and legal standing before courts. A concluding comparative chapter highlights the specific shortcomings and potential of each system in dealing with climate change problems, taking stock of fragmentation and unity in international law. The book presents instances in which international courts are applying procedural and substantive law to this disruptive, transnational, and intergenerational legal problem. It addresses gaps in the legal framework and identifies systems which are not fit for purpose. With international contributions from authors of diverse backgrounds, this book will be of interest to researchers in the field of climate change and environmental law, EU and international law, and international court litigation.
O Regime Jurídico da Expulsão de Estrangeiros no Brasil: Uma análise à luz da Constituição Federal e dos Tratados de Direitos Humanos
"A percepção do estrangeiro como um elemento estranho a ser tratado com desconfiança ensejou a elaboração de legislações de caráter hostil no século XX, que não coadunam com a realidade da mobilidade humana, cada vez mais presente no século XXI... Não tenho dúvida que a legislação brasileira atual passará, em curto ou médio prazo, por uma intensa renovação na temática da expulsão para sua adequação à normatividade pro homine do século XXI, na linha do que é defendido por Pardi. Quando isso ocorrer, o presente livro será sempre citado como aquele que – de modo pioneiro e corajoso – mostrou o caminho a ser trilhado pelo legislador brasileiro. Esse é o papel da investigação científica séria como é a presente obra, que tenho a honra de prefaciar." In Prefácio de André de Carvalho Ramos.
