FAMILY LAW

Family law is of fairly recent invention, especially as an academic subject, credit for this achievement usually going to Professor Peter Bromley, who published the first edition of his now well known textbook in 1957. In the same decade, a practical text on ‘Divorce’, as the general subject of family law was then called, was published by Dmitri Tolstoy. Tolstoy was an ex-patriate Russian aristocrat practising at the common law end of the English Bar, and the father of the then equally unknown historian Nikolai Tolstoy, later famously sued by Lord Aldington for defamation in relation to the West’s alleged post-Second World War betrayal of the Cossacks....

Guide to the Family Law Act 1996

The Family Law Act 1996 will provide the framework for divorce and separation, for mediation and for disputes involving domestic violence for many years to come. It will be up to the family lawyers to ensure that the Act lives up to its principles in supporting marriage and, if divorce or separation are inevitable, then in concluding the arrangements with minimum distress to the parties and their children and promoting a good continuing relationship.Any risk of violence is to be removed or diminished so far as is practicable. It will be important to under- stand and promote the opportunities for marriage guidance and mediation and...

American Bioethics: Crossing Human Rights and Health Law Boundaries

American Bioethics continues my exploration of the relationships between bioethics and law begun in Standard of Care: The Law of American Bioeth- ics and continued in Some Choice: Law, Medicine, and the Market. As with these earlier works, I benefited greatly from conversations, debates, com- ments, and criticisms of my colleagues in the Department of Health Law, Bioethics and Human Rights at the Boston University School of Public Health, most especially Leonard H. Glantz, Michael A. Grodin, Wendy K. Mariner, and Winnie Roche. We have been together for almost two de- cades, during which time we have together explored and crossed tradi- tional academic boundaries, including those combined in...

family LAW Key cases

The Key Cases series is designed to give a clear understanding of important cases. This is useful when studying a new topic and invaluable as a revision aid. Each case is broken down into fact and law. In addition many cases are extended by the use of important extracts from the judgment or by comment or by highlighting problems. In some instances students are reminded that there is a link to other cases or material. If the link case is in another part of the same Key Cases book, the reference will be clearly shown. Some links will be to additional cases or materials that do not feature in...

Human Rights Related Trade Measures under International Law

There is an old schoolyard saying: “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me.” If all the talk about human rights violations seems sometimes to have little measurable effect, is it in the area of punitive trade mea- sures that violating States are more likely to say “ouch!” and be dissuaded from continuing along the path of either active violations of human rights or passive toleration of them in their countries? A good case can be made for trade sanctions as an instrument for bringing about a greater observance of human rights. But, as in so...

EMPLOYMENT LAW AND OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH

Employment law relating to occupational health has evolved a long way from outlawing the sending of little boys up chimneys. The constitution of the occupa- tional health provider has moved on from being a factory doctor assisted by a nurse to being a team of health professionals with a wide range of experience and expertise. Knowledge and understanding of employment law is now an essential component of occupational health provision.

FAMILY LAW ADVOCACY

The role of the law in settling family disputes has been a matter o particular debate over the past 25 years. In keeping with the genera public perception, the media have been largely critical about the role o lawyers in family law matters, sustaining a general lack of confidence in the legal profession, and a more specific feeling that in family matters lawyers aggravate conflict or even represent a female conspiracy. The climate in which family lawyers practise in England and Wales is therefore a harsh one....

WOMEN, FAMILY, AND GENDER IN ISLAMIC LAW

In what ways has Islamic law discriminated against women and privileged men? What rights and power have been accorded to Muslim women, and how have they used the legal system to enhance their social and economic position? In an analysis of Islamic law through the prism of gender, Judith E. Tucker tackles these complex questions relating to thepositionofwomeninIslamicsociety, and to the ways in which the legal system shaped the family, property rights, space, and sexuality, from classical and medieval times to the present. Hers is a nuanced approach, which negotiates broadly between the history of doctrine and of practice and the interplay between the two. Working with concepts drawn fromfeminist...

Occupational Health Law

It is six years since the publication of the third edition, and it has been a period of enormous change in the field of occupational health. The importance of trying to reduce the costs of health care has led the Government to look closely at the need for prevention in respect of work-related disease, and to consider how occupa- tional health cover might be extended to more workers, especially those in small and medium-sized enterprises. The Health and Safety Executive, which in the past tended to concentrate mainly on workplace accidents, has been directing its attention more and more towards health issues, in particular to stress....

Women and Muslim Family Laws in Arab States

This book traces and compares the approaches of different Arab League mem- ber states to a set of issues in the family law codifications that apply to their majority Muslim populations as they appear in the early years of the twenty- first century ce. Looking at ‘text’ in this way has become rather unfashion- able in at least some parts of the Western academy. This is mostly due to disciplinary developments in the specialist fields and in the profiles of schol- ars joining them – which, as elsewhere in scholarship, serve to locate and date earlier scholarship not only by years but by approach and perspective. Some well-deserved...

LAW AND THE PUBLIC DIMENSION OF HEALTH

This is a book about law and public health, but not about public health law as it has been traditionally understood. The book does not focus on statutory measures for the containment of disease (although they are referred to when relevant). Nor does it focus on national powers and duties and the implementation of national policies on health harms (although these are referred to as well). Rather, it is recognised that public health regulation and the use of law as a tool for the attainment of public health operate at global, regional, national and personal levels, just as responsibility for health lies on international, regional and national bodies...

FAMILY LAW AND FAMILY VALUES

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The International Institute for the Sociology of Law in Oñati has enabled this group of scholars who share an interest in family law and family poli- cy, but come from a variety of academic disciplines and countries, to meet, to argue and to develop their ideas over almost a decade. We are grateful for this opportunity and proud to present our third volume of essays. This follows on from our first volume, Family Law and Family Policy in the New Europe, published in 1997, which looked at the development of fam- ily law in a period of rapid transition in Eastern Europe when norms and values were...

INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF ETHICS, LAW, AND THE NEW MEDICINE

The structure of this volume basically follows a tripartite organization: Morality and Politics, Money and Poverty, and Medical Need and Response. I will briefly review the chapters in each part in order to provide the reader with a sense of wha he/she might expect. First, however, I would like to describe the rationale behind each part of the book and how they are intended to relate to each other.

Principles of Addictions and the Law

Drug and alcohol addictions and the law are historically well acquainted in the American legal system. The pervasive presence of legal consequences from alcohol and drug disorders is evidence in medical-legal populations. The identification and treatment of addictive diseases are increasingly important in forensic practice, particularly in cases pertaining to criminal conduct, malprac- tice, employment, disability, child custody, and correctional psychiatry.

Masculinity, Law and the Family

Among the now considerable literature addressing masculinity there are few texts which take as the specific object of study the relationship between masculinity and the law. This book explores the diversity of the masculinities of law and bridges the critique of masculinity and the critical study of law through analysing the relation between masculinity, legal discourse and the family. It seeks to unpack representations in law of male sexuality, authority, paternity, fatherhood and male violence in the family. All of these are areas of law in which understandings of masculinity, law and power have assumed a central importance just as dominant ideas of male heterosexuality have become increasingly problematic....

UNDERSTANDING FAMILY LAW

Historically, the law did not involve itself too much in the regulation of marriage. An individual was free to ‘marry’ merely by the exchange of vows, or by the act of sexual intercourse with their partner. This lack of legal regulation led to the term ‘common law wife’, which is still in use today, although having little, if any, legality or rights attached to it. The law did, however, start to become involved in marriage in the 18th century, and now legislation provides the rules surrounding the process of marriage. In this chapter you will be looking at the formalities of the marriage process and the potential...

TOWARDS A EUROPEAN UNFAIR COMPETITION LAW A Clash Between Legal Families

From the moment I got in contact with the law as a student, I have been try- ing to find the crosslinks between the various areas of law as well as rela- tionships between certain areas of law and matters of public policy and economics. Unfair competition law, as a separate area of law, has proved to be a particularly attractive area of law in light of the above. Not only is it situated on the borderline of intellectual property law, competition law and consumer protection law, but it is clearly connected to areas situated outside of the legal landscape like competition policy, state interference and ethical standards...

Encyclopedia of Women & Islamic Cultures volume ii Family, Law and Politics

Eleven years after EWIC was first conceived in 1994, EWIC is halfway through its print produc- tion. Volume III of the Encyclopedia of Women and Islamic Cultures marks that halfway point and is the product of the work of more people than can be acknowledged here. We are indebted to Brill for continued support, especially Sam Bruinsma, the Business Unit Manager for History and Olaf Köndgen, the Senior Acquisitions Editor (Islamic Studies) at Brill. Ingrid Heijckers and Isabella Gerritsen have gone above and beyond the com- mitments of their jobs at Brill to facilitate commu- nications between EWIC editors and authors, tracking articles, and keeping us within our time frames.
