This comprehensive Commentary provides the first fully up-to-date
analysis and interpretation of the Council of Europe Convention on
Action against Trafficking in Human Beings. It offers a concise yet
thorough article-by-article guide to the Convention's
anti-trafficking standards and corresponding human rights
obligations. This Commentary includes an analysis of each article's
drafting history, alongside a contextualisation of its provisions
with other anti-trafficking standards and a discussion of the core
issues of interpretation. The Commentary also presents the first
full exploration of the findings of the Convention's monitoring
body, the Group of Experts on Action against Trafficking in Human
Beings (GRETA), providing a better understanding of the practical
implications and challenges in relation to the Convention's
standards. Practitioners in the field of anti-trafficking,
including lawyers, law enforcement agencies and providers of victim
support services will find the Commentary's concise analysis
invaluable. It will also prove useful to researchers and students
of human rights law, as well as to policymakers looking for
guidance concerning obligations stemming from the Convention.

The law and practice of EU external relations is governed not only
by general objectives (Articles 3(5) and 21 TEU and Article 205
TFEU) and values (Article 2 TEU) but also by a set of principles
found in the Treaties and developed by the Court of Justice, which
structure the system, functioning and exercise of EU external
competences. This book identifies a set of 'structural principles'
as a legal norm-category governing EU external relations; it
explores the scope, content and function of those principles that
may be categorised as structural. With an ambitious scope, and a
stellar line-up of experts in the field, the collection offers a
truly innovative perspective on the role of law in EU external
relations.
Focusing on the information economy, free trade exploitation, and
confronting terrorist violence, Mark Findlay critiques law's
regulatory commodification. Conventional legal regulatory modes
such as theft and intellectual property are being challenged by
waves of property access and use, which demand the rethinking of
property 'rights' and their relationships with the law. Law's
Regulatory Relevance? theorises how the law should reposition
itself in order to help rather than hinder new pathways of market
power, by confronting the dominant neo-liberal economic model that
values property through scarcity. With in-depth analysis of
empirical case studies, the author explores how law is returning to
its communal utility in strengthening social ties, which will in
turn restore property as social relations rather than market
commodities. In a world of contested narratives about property
valuing, law needs to ground its inherent regulatory relevance in
the ordering of social change. This book is an essential read for
students of law and regulation wanting to explore the contemporary
dissent against neo-liberal market economies and the issues of
communitarian governance and social resistance. It will also appeal
to policy makers interested in law's failing regulatory capacity,
particularly through criminalising attacks on conventional property
rights, by offering insights into why law's regulatory relevance is
at a cross-roads.
Today more than one hundred small, asymmetric, and revolutionary
wars are being waged around the world. This book provides
invaluable tools for fighting such wars by taking enemy
perspectives into consideration. The third volume of a trilogy by
Max G. Manwaring, it continues the arguments the author presented
in "Insurgency, Terrorism, and Crime" and "Gangs,
Pseudo-Militaries, and Other Modern Mercenaries." Using case
studies, Manwaring outlines vital survival lessons for leaders and
organizations concerned with national security in our contemporary
world.
The insurgencies Manwaring describes span the globe. Beginning with
conflicts in Algeria in the 1950s and 1960s and El Salvador in the
1980s, he goes on to cover the Shining Path and its resurgence in
Peru, Al Qaeda in Spain, popular militias in Cuba, Haiti, and
Brazil, the Russian youth group Nashi, and drugs and politics in
Guatemala, as well as cyber warfare.
Large, wealthy, well-armed nations such as the United States have
learned from experience that these small wars and insurgencies do
not resemble traditional wars fought between geographically
distinct nation-state adversaries by easily identified military
forces. Twenty-first-century irregular conflicts blur traditional
distinctions among crime, terrorism, subversion, insurgency,
militia, mercenary and gang activity, and warfare.
Manwaring's multidimensional paradigm offers military and civilian
leaders a much needed blueprint for achieving strategic victories
and ensuring global security now and in the future. It combines
military and police efforts with politics, diplomacy, economics,
psychology, and ethics. The challenge he presents to civilian and
military leaders is to take probable enemy perspectives into
consideration, and turn resultant conceptions into strategic
victories.
