Constitutions of Value - Law, Governance, and Political Ecology (Hardcover): Isabel Feichtner, Geoff Gordon Constitutions of Value - Law, Governance, and Political Ecology (Hardcover)
Isabel Feichtner, Geoff Gordon
R3,863 Discovery Miles 38 630 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Gathering an interdisciplinary range of cutting-edge scholars, this book addresses legal constitutions of value. Global value production and transnational value practices that rely on exploitation and extraction have left us with toxic commons and a damaged planet. Against this situation, the book examines law's fundamental role in institutions of value production and valuation. Utilising pathbreaking theoretical approaches, it problematizes mainstream efforts to redeem institutions of value production by recoupling them with progressive values. Aiming beyond radical critique, the book opens up the possibility of imagining and enacting new and different value practices. This wide-ranging and accessible book will appeal to international lawyers, socio-legal scholars, those working at the intersections of law and economy and others, in politics, economics, environmental studies and elsewhere, who are concerned with rethinking our current ideas of what has value, what does not, and whether and how value may be revalued.

Human Rights in the Extractive Industries - Transparency, Participation, Resistance (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2019): Isabel... Human Rights in the Extractive Industries - Transparency, Participation, Resistance (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2019)

R4,021 Discovery Miles 40 210 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book addresses key challenges and conflicts arising in extractive industries (mining, oil drilling) concerning the human rights of workers, their families, local communities and other stakeholders. Further, it analyses various instruments that have sought to mitigate human rights violations by defining transparency-related obligations and participation rights. These include the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI), disclosure requirements, and free, prior and informed consent (FPIC). The book critically assesses these instruments, demonstrating that, in some cases, they produce unwanted effects. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of resistance to extractive industry projects as a response to human rights violations, and discusses how transparency, participation and resistance are interconnected.

The Law and Politics of WTO Waivers - Stability and Flexibility in Public International Law (Paperback): Isabel Feichtner The Law and Politics of WTO Waivers - Stability and Flexibility in Public International Law (Paperback)
Isabel Feichtner
R1,305 Discovery Miles 13 050 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Despite being an important legal instrument in the law of the WTO, the waiver has hitherto been the subject of little scholarly analysis. Isabel Feichtner fills this gap by challenging the conventional view that the WTO's political bodies do not engage in significant law-making. She systemises the GATT and WTO waiver practice and suggests a typology of waivers as individual exception, general exception and rule-making instruments. She also presents the procedural and substantive legal requirements for the granting of waivers, deals with questions of judicial review and interpretation of waiver decisions, and clarifies the waiver's potential and limits for addressing the need for flexibility and adaptability in public international law and WTO law in particular. By connecting the analysis of waiver competence and waiver practice to the general stability/flexibility challenge in public international law, the book sheds new light on the WTO, international institutions and international law.
