  • In the 2010s, the United Nations embarked on a series of projects to embrace and respond to digital data technologies as part of its human rights agenda. Human rights for the Data Society argues that these efforts produced a world in which the biggest technology corporations and their data technologies are widely accepted as indispensable to the international human rights project: the data society. The UN did this through a series of technical projects that produce 'datafied' forms of human rights, whereby core concepts and practices of rights are understood by reference to or performed through digital data technologies, and where the human of human rights recedes into the data. Thus, when human rights practitioners – at the UN and beyond – use datafied forms of human rights, they play a significant role in making the data society possible. By the same token, they also play a significant role in foreclosing alternative possibilities – of worlds in which human rights and digital data technologies might be imagined differently.

  • This Handbook provides the first comprehensive examination of the legal strategies around the world shaping sustainability in global value chains. Bringing together leading scholars, it maps how diverse legal disciplines (including corporate law, labour law, tax law, tort law, private law, environmental law, international law and more) conceptualise and regulate the complex architectures of cross-border production. Through a unifying analytical framework, the book reveals how fragmented regulatory approaches can complement one another, and how legal tools may address the environmental, social, and economic challenges that global production networks create and sustain. Covering jurisdictions across the globe and engaging with emerging regulatory instruments such as due diligence laws, sustainability reporting obligations, climate transition plans, and international taxation initiatives, this Handbook offers an indispensable resource for academics, policymakers, practitioners, and students concerned with responsible business conduct and sustainable development. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

  • What is the moral foundation of human rights, justice, and the rule of law? In a time of deep cultural and political division, this volume charts the rich history of one of the most enduring ideas in Western thought: that moral and legal norms are rooted in human nature and accessible to reason. Spanning ancient, medieval, early modern, and contemporary traditions-including Islamic and African-American perspectives-the volume shows how Natural Law has evolved and how it continues to shape debates in ethics, politics, and jurisprudence. With chapters on Aristotle, Aquinas, Grotius, Locke, and the American Founders, as well as modern voices like Jacques Maritain and Martin Luther King, it offers both historical depth and philosophical clarity. Essential reading for students and scholars in philosophy, law, theology, and political theory, it invites readers to rediscover a tradition that speaks urgently to the moral challenges of our time.

Intervening in International Justice
  • Third States before Courts and Tribunals

  • The intervention of States in legal proceedings touches upon some of the most beguiling questions in international dispute settlement. These include questions of treaty interpretation, obligations erga omnes, the sources of judicial power and rulemaking, the nature of incidental proceedings, the Monetary Gold doctrine of indispensable parties, cross-fertilization between judicial and arbitral bodies, and principles of jurisdiction, party autonomy, and res judicata. As jurists and scholars tend to address these questions in isolation, however, each development in third-State practice has raised unimagined issues of first impression-such as the 2022 declarations of dozens of States exploring mass intervention before the International Court of Justice in Ukraine v. Russia, and the participation of neighbouring States without China's presence in the 2016 South China Sea arbitration. By applying conceptual, comparative, and historical approaches to international justice, this book instead offers a uniquely holistic assessment of the practice and prospective development of intervention.

Anti-Corruption Corporate Compliance

  • How are corporate compliance programs becoming a central feature of global anti-corruption governance, and what legal forces truly drive their spread? This groundbreaking book offers the first global mapping of the legal developments that promote compliance programs across both the Global North and the Global South. Challenging the Northern-centric focus of existing scholarship, it reveals how seemingly aligned reforms mask deeply diverse designs of local legal strategies. By developing an original taxonomy and interrogating the role of the International Anti-Corruption Regime, the book reshapes our understanding of how compliance is legally constructed and incentivized in contemporary corporate practices. Adopting a comparative perspective, this work positions compliance program studies as a vital and emerging field within legal scholarship.

Judging Through Narrative
  • Muslim Family Laws in Non-Muslim Courts
  • Yüksel Sezgin
  • Coming soon
  • Expected online publication date:

    Print publication:
    30 November 2026
  • Judging Through Narrative explores the normative frames, or judicial narratives, that non-Muslim courts construct when adjudicating Muslim Family Law disputes. The book examines how these narratives shape the rule of law, gender reform, and public trust in the justice system. Drawing on over 400 interviews with judges, lawyers, and litigants, and an analysis of nearly 3,000 judicial decisions from Ghana, India, Israel, and Greece, the book reveals how coherence and fragmentation in judicial storytelling influences legal legitimacy and reform. Introducing the concept of 'narratival (in)cohesion', this work offers a new framework for understanding how courts mediate between religion, rights, and state authority. Bridging law, political science, and socio-legal studies, it is an essential resource for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners seeking to understand how judicial narratives shape the lived experience of law in diverse, multi-religious societies.

  • This textbook provides an interdisciplinary overview of international human rights issues, offering international coverage (especially the Global South). Fully revised and updated, this second edition considers the philosophical foundations of human rights, explores the interpretive difficulties associated with identifying what constitutes human rights abuses, and evaluates various perspectives on human rights. It then analyzes institutions that strive to promote and enforce human rights standards including the United Nations system, regional human rights bodies, and domestic courts. It also discusses a wide variety of substantive human rights issues including genocide, torture, capital punishment and other forms of punishment. In particular, it covers understudied topics such as socio-economic rights, cultural rights and environmental rights, and emerging issues, such as right to health and human rights and technology. It focuses on the rights of marginalized groups including children's rights, rights of persons with disabilities, women's rights, labor rights, Indigenous rights, and LGBTQ+ rights.

  • Incidents at Sea in US Diplomacy and International Law chronicles America's maritime struggles from 1798 to 2025, blending riveting historical narratives with in-depth legal analysis. This book chronicles pivotal maritime incidents in US history from 1798 to 2025, exploring US naval and diplomatic efforts to shape the law of the sea. Spanning 14 chapters, the book dissects key conflicts with France, Great Britain, the Barbary States, Germany, Russia, North Korea, North Vietnam, Cambodia, Libya, China and the Houthi forces in Yemen. These disputes highlight themes of freedom of navigation, innocent passage, neutral rights and protection of commerce, high seas freedoms, and gray zone coercion, armed attack and self-defense at sea. The incidents range from historical conflicts over neutral rights to contemporary challenges to freedom of navigation, which is a cornerstone of the US alliance system with NATO and key allies, including Australia, the Philippines, Korea and Japan.

The Cambridge Handbook of the Law of Networks, Platforms and Utilities

  • The Cambridge Handbook of the Law of Networks, Platforms and Utilities offers a comparative and multi-sector analysis of the most important industries shaping people's lives, including transportation, communications, finance, energy, technology, and social infrastructure. Enterprises in these sectors are unlike other businesses because they form the basic infrastructure for commerce and society. Network, platform, and utility (NPU) enterprises tend toward monopoly or oligopoly, and often involve structurally unequal bargaining power because of economies of scale, network effects, special skills, and high capital costs. As a result, NPU enterprises around the world have generally been governed by distinctive legal regimes: public ownership, public utility regulation and oversight, or public options alongside private businesses. The Cambridge Handbook of the Law of Networks, Platforms and Utilities brings together leading scholars to capture the central themes and concepts in the field and describe how countries around the world govern NPU enterprises.

Constitutional War Powers

  • Many believe that the power to start wars is the most important issue of constitutional war powers-and perhaps the most important issue of constitutional law altogether. Yet this fixation on the power to start wars obscures equally important questions. Who has the power to prepare for war, deter it, conduct it, decide its aims, or end it? Although many democracies wrestle with these constitutional questions, the United States stands apart in that no other written constitution has had to function over time across such dramatic transformations in national military power and radical swings in strategy for wielding it. To show the many ways that political leaders have adapted law-in war, in peace, and in the gray zones between-this book weaves together the stories of American constitutional war powers, military history, and grand strategy from the Revolutionary War to possible conflicts of the future. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

  • Billions flow through illicit trade annually, harming societies and economies, yet the International Community struggle to respond effectively. This book provides a groundbreaking, integrated perspective, bridging the divide between Public International Law and WTO Law to offer a cohesive strategy against illicit trade. It starts by proposing a much-needed definition and innovative typologies – like per se vs de facto – to systematically understand the phenomenon. Real-world case studies and analysis of state regulatory measures illustrate the practical challenges. The author critiques the WTO's evasive stance, dissecting key dispute settlement cases, and introduces the concept of 'International Law Against Illicit Trade' (ILAIT) based on established legal principles. Offering more than mere critique, the book culminates in specific, actionable proposals for WTO reform, making a compelling case for adapting trade rules to fight illicit trade effectively. This book is a vital resource for anyone involved in international trade law and policy.

Citizenship Deprivation and the Constitutional State
  • The Politics of (Un) Belonging

  • Citizenship deprivation has made a striking return to the political and legal landscapes of liberal democracies. How can we account for this return and the subsequent normalisation of the powers? What explains 'resistances' to this return and variation between state practices? More broadly, what do we learn about citizenship deprivation when we read it through a constitutional lens? This book addresses these key questions through an in-depth, historically grounded, comparative analysis of France and the UK. In the book, citizenship deprivation is revealed not as a narrow counter-terrorism tool but as a racialised migration mechanism embedded in constitutional architectures and rooted in colonial legacies. By connecting citizenship regimes to state's constitutional structures, this book also shows how constitutional stories about citizenship infuse the behaviours of state actors (providing legitimation frames and discourses) and how these stories tie to states' structures, eventually accounting for variations between state practices.
