Research Handbook on Intelligence and International Law
Free chapter
 

Research Handbook on Intelligence and International Law
Edited by Russell Buchan and Iñaki Navarrete

‘This Research Handbook is an erudite yet very readable collective work on the role of intelligence agencies within international affairs. It provides a balanced account of what is sometimes thought of as pernicious or unknowable. For the most part, the volume avoids sensationalising—or romanticising—“espionage”. It is based on fact not fiction. The volume covers a wide range of questions related to intelligence matters that government lawyers and others face on a daily basis; it is strongly recommended.’

– Sir Michael Wood KCMG KC, Twenty Essex, UK

Big Tech and EU Law
Transatlantic Lawyering, Lobbying and Litigating

Elaine Fahey

‘Elaine Fahey’s book certainly doesn’t take the easy path. She tackles the massive industry known as Big Tech and presents an ambitious synthesis of not just one or two key strategies, but all three - lawyering, litigation, and lobbying - that Big Tech employs when it engages with EU law, its institutions, Member States, and consumers. By analysing these three models of engagement in the transatlantic space, Fahey’s important book succeeds in presenting a truly rich and multi-layered account of its subject matter.’

– Emilia Korkea-aho, University of Eastern Finland

 
Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Migration and Asylum Law
Free chapter
 

Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Migration and Asylum Law
Edited by Vincent Chetail

‘This detailed and coherent portrait of the multiple aspects of migration law around the world describes a complex web of interrelations between places, people, regulations, institutions, and ideas. Its 106 entries constitute an effective antidote to the political discourse pretending to “solve the migration problem once and for all”.’

– François Crépeau, McGill University, Canada

Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Polar Law
Edited by Donald R. Rothwell, Evan T. Bloom, Suzanne Lalonde and Jeffrey McGee

‘This is a much needed and extremely useful Encyclopedia covering all essential aspects of the law and policy of the polar regions, including their historical background. The renowned editors have done a laudable job in identifying 144 entries of contemporary relevance and structuring them in a manner that makes their contents easily accessible. This Encyclopedia will serve as an excellent and easily accessible source of reference for scholars, students and all others who want to learn more about the intricacies of polar law.’

– Marie Jacobsson, former Ambassador and Principal Legal Adviser on International Law, Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs

Access to Domestic Justice for Violations of International Law
Seeking Accountability for External State Action

Leander Beinlich

‘Courts may no longer fend off legal claims of individuals harmed in armed conflict but are obliged to explain themselves when they dismiss arguable claims. This study is brilliantly argued, highly creative, yet doctrinally sound, and grounded in positive law. Both of deep conceptual interest and practical added value.’

– Anne Peters, Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and Public International Law, Germany

The Freedom of Movement of Asylum Seekers within the State
Scope and Safeguards under International Law

Juan Ruiz Ramos

‘In producing this work, Ramos skilfully engages with existing literature, while also becoming an authoritative voice on the issue. Given the global trends of detention and containment of the displaced, I sincerely hope this book finds a wide audience and becomes a catalyst for more urgent work on this fundamental right.’

– Nicholas Maple, University of London, UK

 
Determining Outer Limits of the Continental Shelf
More information
 

Determining Outer Limits of the Continental Shelf
Yunjun Li

‘Determining the outer limits of a state’s continental shelf jurisdiction is central to effective ocean governance. Yet the provisions of the 1982 Law of the Sea convention are notably complex and the process through which this is to the achieved, including the role of the Commission on the Limits on the Continental Shelf, notably opaque. Both are subject to penetrating and insightful scrutiny in this detailed and innovative study, which sheds important new light on the substantive and procedural aspects of this vital question.’

– Sir Malcolm Evans, Regent's Park College, Oxford, UK
