WILLIAM TWINING, University College London, UK 

WIL WALUCHOW , McMaster University, Canada 

MICHAEL GIUDICE, York University, Canada 

MAKSYMILIAN DEL MAR, Edinburgh University, UK 

The discipline of legal theory has flourished over the last thirty years, as shown by the 

proliferation of methodological debates and controversies. These debates are not only relevant 

to how legal theory understands its own enterprise: its problems, aims and issues of scope. 

They are also relevant to many other aspects of the practice of legal theory, for example its 

role vis-à-vis the practice of law and the practice of other related activities, such as legal 

scholarship and legal education. As the ambitions of legal theory grow, so do questions 

concerning its relations with other disciplines, such as comparative law, but also, much more 

broadly, the social sciences. 

This three volume series on contemporary legal theory brings together a selection of previously 

published articles from leading legal theorists which are key papers in the discussion of the 

above controversies and challenges. Each volume opens with a substantial introduction to the 

papers and their context and ends with a selective bibliography for further reading. 

TITLES IN THE SERIES: 

•VOLUME 1: Legal Theory and the Legal Academy 

•VOLUME 2: The Methodology of Legal Theory

This series brings together the most significant 

published journal articles in international law as 

determined by the editors of each volume in the 

series. These articles are difficult for students 

and legal scholars to obtain otherwise, due to 

the proliferation of specialist law journals, the

of availability of many valuable, older articles. 

Each volume also features new material in the 

form of a specially commissioned introduction, 

which provides an overview of the subject matter 

and an explanation as to why the articles have 

been selected. The volumes complement each 

other to give a clear view of the burgeoning area 

of international law. 

This series of twenty-two volumes comprises 

an essential resource for all law libraries and 

academics in the field of international law and is 

useful for both teaching and research at all levels.

DRUG ABUSE and 

CRIME 

Series Editor: 

MANGAI NATARAJAN, John Jay College of Criminal Justice, 

City University of New York, USA 

Many countries around the world find themselves 

grappling with problems of drug abuse. International 

collaborative efforts and policies have been mostly 

geared to obstructing the supply of drugs, while 

efforts to control demand have been left to national 

governments. Meanwhile, in recent decades extensive 

programmes have been funded to research the 

etiology and epidemiology of drug abuse as well as 

the drugs-crime relationship. 

The increase in drugs-related research is reflected 

in this series which collects the most significant 

published articles and papers on the sociology and 

criminology of drug abuse. The journal articles are 

selected from a variety of relevant disciplines including 

economics, sociology, psychology, criminology, criminal justice, medicine and social work, and are 

all peer reviewed. The articles provide a thorough review of recent literature, an intellectual critique 

of the relevant studies and identify gaps in research and policy relating to drug abuse and crime. 

Taken together, the three volumes offer an invaluable resource to students and scholars interested in 

all aspects of drug abuse and crime.

International Legal Personality 

Edited by Fleur Johns, University of Sydney, Australia 

The Library of Essays in International Law 

The essays in this volume explore who or what is a

Non-State Actors and International Law 

Edited by Andrea Bianchi, Graduate Institute of International 

and Development Studies, Geneva 


Non-state actors play an important role in international law-making, law-adjudication 

and law-enforcement processes. However, little attention has been paid to the 

theoretical discourse about non-state actors and its relation to the doctrine of the 

subjects of international law. The articles collected together in this volume consider 

a range of issues on this subject, such as whether the solution lies in ‘relativizing’ 

the subjects or rather in ‘subjectivizing’ them, and contribute to the discussion 

to determine who may legitimately and authoritatively perform legally relevant 

acts on the international scene.

International Refugee Law 

Edited by Hélène Lambert, University of Westminster, UK 


The essays selected and reproduced in this volume explore 

how international refugee law is dynamic and constantly 

evolving. The original set of principles, customary rules 

and values which were firmly embedded in the human 

rights framework are still liable to change in the light of 

developments in, for example, international humanitarian 

law, international criminal law, migration issues and new 

concepts of state participation and responsibility. Thus, 

there is a reinforcing dynamic in the development of these 

complementary areas of law.

THE INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF ESSAYS ON GLOBALIZATION AND LAW 

Series Editor: Michael K. Addo, University of Exeter, UK 

Economic globalization has so fundamentally affected the roles and relationships of national and international actors that conventional rules of law have come 

under intense scrutiny. With economic globalization comes the confirmation of neo-classical economic doctrine as a dominant theme in policy-making and with 

it the diminution of the State and other symbols of sovereignty. The International Library of Essays on Globalization and Law includes thematic collections of essays 

which discuss changes to the role and the relevance of the law which are a consequence of and response to economic globalization.

Indigenous Rights 

Edited by Anthony J. Connolly, Australian National University, Australia 


Throughout the world, indigenous rights have become increasingly prominent and 

controversial. The recent adoption by the United Nations General Assembly of the 

Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples is the latest in a series of significant 

developments in the recognition of such rights across a range of jurisdictions. The 

papers in this collection address the most important philosophical and practical issues 

informing the discussion of indigenous rights over the past decade or so, at both the 

international and national levels. Its contributing authors comprise some of the most 

interesting and influential indigenous and non-indigenous thinkers presently writing 

on the topic.

The Right to a Fair Trial 

Edited by Thom Brooks, University of Newcastle, UK 


The right to a fair trial is often held as a central constitutional protection. 

It nevertheless remains unclear what precisely should count as a‘fair’ trial and who 

should decide verdicts. This already difficult issue has become even more important 

given a number of proposed reforms of the trial, especially for defendants charged with 

terrorism offences. This collection, The Right to a Fair Trial, is the first to publish in one 

place the most influential work in the field on the following topics: including the right 

to jury trial; lay participation in trials; jury nullification; trial reform; the civil jury trial; 

and the more recent issue of terrorism trials. The collection should help inform both 

scholars and students of both the importance and complexity of the right to a fair trial, 

as well as shed light on how the trial might be further improved.

Biosocial Theories of Crime 

Edited by Kevin M. Beaver, Florida State University, 

USA and Anthony Walsh, Boise State University, USA 


Biosocial criminology is an emerging perspective that 

highlights the interdependence between genetic and 

environmental factors in the study of the causes of

only recently gained recognition among criminologists and 

therefore this volume is the first to compile some of the 

‘classic’ articles on this topic. The articles covered examine 

the connection between genetics and crime, evolutionary 

psychology and crime, and neuroscience and crime. This volume will be a valuable 

resource for anyone interested in understanding the causes of crime from a biosocial 

criminological perspective.

A Criminological Imagination 

Essays on Justice, Punishment, Discourse 

Pat Carlen, Kent University, UK 


This collection of Carlen’s key essays on a wide range of 

subjects is informed by a common assumption: that while 

criminal justice must remain imaginary in societies based 

upon unequal and exploitative social relations, one task of 

a criminological imagination might be to suggest why this 

is so, and how things could be otherwise.

The staging of magistrates’ justice; 

Magistrates courts: A game theoretic analysis;

LIBRARY OF ESSAYS IN MEDIA LAW 

Series Editors: Eric Barendt, University College London, UK and Thomas Gibbons, University of Manchester, UK 

‘By the standards of major reference works in media law, it would be hard to find a parallel for this set of four books.’ The Commonwealth Lawyer 

There is now a rich and diverse literature on many aspects of media law and regulation. The aim of this series is to present the most significant articles and papers, 

grouped around particular themes. The series covers topics which have been explored in legal periodicals for many years as well as those which deal with more modern 

aspects of the law, such as how electronic media should be regulated. The editors have drawn on articles from around the world which discuss issues from a theoretical 

or comparative perspective. Taken together, these four volumes offer an invaluable resource to students and scholars interested in all aspects of media law. 


Free Speech in the New Media 

Edited by Thomas Gibbons, University of Manchester, UK 

Library of Essays in Media Law 

‘This collection provides an insight into how the logic of the new media 

will ultimately compel the law.’ 

Law Society Journal 

The essays in this volume consider questions of political and constitutional principle 

and theory that affect the law and regulation of content in new media that are based 

on digital technology. They examine a range of issues such as whether the justifications 

for government intervention in traditional analogue broadcasting and program 

delivery continue to be persuasive; whether new approaches to freedom of expression 

are required in the digital era; whether there is a continued role for public service 

broadcasting or its equivalent and whether there is a case for the European Union’s 

measures to secure ‘Television without Frontiers.’

Freedom of the Press 

Edited by Eric Barendt, University College London, UK 


This volume brings together seminal articles by leading international scholars on all 

aspects of press freedom. Topics covered include the meaning of press freedom and its 

relationship to freedom of speech, the extent to which self-regulation is a satisfactory 

alternative to legal controls, whether courts should apply the same constitutional 

principles to privacy actions as those developed in libel law, and how far celebrities 

are entitled to claim privacy rights when they are photographed in public places. 

The essays also explore the various solutions adopted in the USA and in some 

Commonwealth countries to balancing the freedom of the press and other media 

against the laws of libel and privacy.

Media Freedom and Contempt of Court 



These essays discuss the restrictions imposed by contempt of court and other laws on 

media freedom to attend and report legal proceedings. In particular, they consider the 

open justice principle and whether open justice entails a right to film and broadcast 

legal proceedings; the application of contempt of court to prejudicial media publicity 

and whether it is possible to prevent prejudice without sacrificing media freedom; and 

whether journalists should have the right not to reveal their sources of information.

Regulating Audiovisual Services 

Edited by Thomas Gibbons, University of Manchester, UK 


The adoption of digital technology has resulted in the convergence of broadcasting, 

cable, satellite, the Internet and mobile telephony, enabling each of them to deliver 

the same kinds of content and allowing users to exercise much greater choice over 

the kind of material that they receive and when they receive it. The essays in this

Corporate Environmental Responsibility 

Edited by Neil Gunningham, Australian National University, Australia 


The essays in this volume map the development of the Corporate Environmental 

Responsibility (CER) concept, trace the principal debates concerning its contribution 

to environmental protection, assess the evidence as to what extent corporations are 

seeking to ‘do well by doing good’ and explain why some companies have gone down 

this path when others, similarly situated, have been unwilling to do so. In essence 

it asks: what has CER accomplished, what can it accomplish and what is beyond its 

reach.

Law, Hermeneutics and Rhetoric 

Francis J. Mootz III, University of Nevada, USA 


This collection of Mootz’s classic essays argues that legal 

practice is a hermeneutical and rhetorical event that can 

best be understood and theorized in those terms. Whereas 

contemporary legal theory is fragmented, this ‘return’ to 

hermeneutics and rhetoric as touchstones for law embraces 

dynamic traditions and provides the resources for theorists 

who seek to foster persuasion and understanding as an 

antidote to the emerging global order and the trend toward 

bureaucratization. 

Contents: 

PART I: LEGAL HERMENEUTICS AND THEORY: 

The new legal hermeneutics; 

The ontological basis of legal hermeneutics: A proposed model of inquiry based 

on the work of Gadamer, Habermas and Ricoeur; 

A future foretold: Neo-Aristotelian praise of post modern legal theory. 

PART II: LAW, HERMENEUTICS AND RHETORIC: 

Rhetorical knowledge in legal practice and theory; 

Law in flux: Philosophical hermeneutics, legal argumentation and the natural 

law tradition. 

PART III: CRITICAL HERMENEUTICS AND LEGAL RHETORIC: 

Nietzschean critique and philosophical hermeneutics; 

responding to Nietzsche: the constructive power of destruktion;

SERIES 

PHILOSOPHERS AND LAW 


This series is concerned with the group of philosophers, such as Aristotle, Kant and Hegel, whose names are not immediately or primarily associated with law, 

but who nevertheless, have had a profound influence on legal thought. Each volume in the series deals with a major philosopher whose work has been taken 

up and applied to the study and critique of law and legal systems. The essays chosen represent the most important and influential contributions to the interpretation 

of the philosophers concerned and the relevance of their work to current legal issues.
