Access to Justice for Persons with Psychosocial Disabilities
Taking Kenya as a case study, this book examines the application of criminal procedure in the context of persons with psychosocial disabilities. It discusses how the right to participation of persons with psychosocial disabilities who have been declared unfit can be best protected during and after the criminal process in Africa and at the international level. In doing so, it hypothesises that the social model of disability is inadequate to respond to violations against the right to participation of persons with psychosocial disabilities in the criminal justice system and thus the need for other normative frameworks such as Foucauldian and decolonial theories. It recommends that legislative e...

The Digital Courtroom
The digitalisation of courtrooms brings both opportunities and challenges to the judicial process, shaping our understandings of trials and their participants in a myriad of, at times, unexpected ways, and transforming how we participate in, attend, engage with, and consume trials.

By exploring these developments, the book highlights the importance of a thoughtful approach to digital int...
Epidemics and the Law from Plague to the Present
This collection of essays presents a socio-legal history of epidemics from the medieval period to the present day. Building on previous studies of infectious diseases undertaken by social historians of medicine, this collection explores the histories of epidemics and disease by looking at the legal measures deployed against them. Whilst previous works have considered the mechanisms by which legal change occurs, the social and political assumptions on which new laws and new legal structures are premised and the social changes which follow, this book focuses on the way in which historical actors understood law to be a complex means of responding to disease and the way in which that law shaped ...
