Written by a leader in the field, The Foundations of Australian Public Law is a key text for students looking to gain a comprehensive understanding of Public Law across Australia’s federal, state and territory jurisdictions.

A Critical Introduction to International Criminal Law
An Introduction to International Criminal Law and Procedure
Carsten Stahn, Universiteit Leiden
Fourth Edition
International criminal law has witnessed a rapid rise after the end of the Cold War. The UN refers to the birth of a new ‘age of accountability’, but certain historical objections, such as selectivity or victor’s justice, have never fully gone away, and many of the justice dimensions of international criminal law remain unexplored. Various critiques have emerged in sociolegal scholarship or globalisation discourse, revealing that there is a stark discrepancy between reality and expectation. Suitable for students, academics and professionals from multiple fields wishing to understand contemporary theories, practices and critiques of international criminal law. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Modern Criminal Law of Australia Second Edition
Robert Cryer, University of Birmingham
Jeremy Gans, University of Melbourne
This carefully edited text collects the major documents on International Criminal Law, through the early practice after the First World War, the Nuremberg and Tokyo International Military Tribunals up to the present. It includes the statutes of the ad hoc Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda, as well as the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and its associated documents, including the elements of crimes that were adopted to assist the Court, and its Rules of Procedure and Evidence.
This second edition of Modern Criminal Law of Australia builds on the unique, award-winning approach of the first edition, and retains the approachable and accessible structure and writing style. It emphasises the importance of statutory interpretation, official discretion, element analysis and sentencing in Australian law, in order to appreciate the meaning and effect of offence provisions. Extracts from legislation are highlighted and, new to this edition, current and pending problems in Australian criminal law are separately identified and investigated. Worked examples conclude each chapter and provide readers with a greater understanding of the application and practicalities of criminal law. Modern Criminal Law of Australia satisfies the Priestley 11 requirement for Criminal Law and Procedure study in Australia. Its insightful approach provides students and practitioners with a detailed understanding of the common law, traditional code and model code systems, as well as the skills to practice law anywhere in Australia.

Crime, Deviance and Society: An Introduction to Sociological Criminology offers a comprehensive introduction to criminological theory. The book introduces readers to key sociological theories, such as anomie and strain, and examines how traditional approaches have influenced the ways in which crime and deviance are constructed. It provides a nuanced account of contemporary theories and debates, and includes chapters covering feminist criminology, critical masculinities, cultural criminology, green criminology, and postcolonial theory, among others. Case studies in each chapter demonstrate how sociological theories can manifest within and influence the criminal justice system, while ‘social control link’ examples draw connections to social policy. Each chapter also features margin definitions and timelines of contributions to key theories and theorists to reinforce key concepts, reflection questions and end-of-chapter questions that prompt students to engage critically with contemporary discourses. Written by an expert team of academics from Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, Crime, Deviance and Society is a highly engaging and accessible introduction to the field for students of criminology and criminal justice. •

THIRD EDITION SPINE 16.6mm
Crime Prevention: Principles, Perspectives and Practices is a concise, comprehensive introduction to the theory and practice of crime prevention in Australia. Now in its third edition, it argues that crime prevention strategies should include both social and environmental prevention as an alternative to policing, criminal justice and ‘law and order’. It further argues that that principles of prevention can be applied to persistent crime problems such as theft, armed robbery, various forms of violence, malicious damage to property, and emerging problems that face society, such as terrorism, environmental threats, and cybercrime. The new edition features two new chapters on environmental crime and counter-terrorism, and includes case studies, discussion questions and extension topics that highlight the links between the development and application of crime prevention approaches. An end-of-text glossary and reference list allows for a comprehensive lexicon of key issues and guidance for further research. Written by an author team of highly experienced and respected criminology academics, the third edition of Crime Prevention continues to be a comprehensive and authoritative introduction to crime prevention both in Australia and abroad. • • • • • •

The fourth edition of Effective Negotiation is newly reorganised to clearly and separately identify concepts, theories and practicalities of negotiation. The text provides an excellent coverage of negotiation without oversimplifying frameworks for strategy and communication. Moving past outdated modes of separating negotiations into distributive (competitive) and integrative (collaborative), the text’s real strength lies in its encouragement of a stage model of negotiation, ensuring that students receive a more practical and nuanced understanding of negotiation. The text presents clear links between research and practice through Negotiation in ‘Practice boxes’ and ‘Negotiation Skills’ tips, and theory is reinforced by the new addition of well-researched case studies appearing at the end of each chapter. An accompanying website is available for instructors.

Third Edition
Michael Palmer, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London Simon Roberts, London School of Economics and Political Science This wide-ranging study considers the primary forms of decision-making – negotiation, mediation, umpiring, as well as the processes of avoidance and violence – in the context of rapidly changing discourses and practices of civil justice across a range of jurisdictions. Many contemporary discussions in this field–and associated projects of institutional design–are taking place under the broad but imprecise label of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). The book brings together and analyses a wide range of materials dealing with dispute processes, and the current debates on and developments in civil justice. With the help of analysis of materials beyond those ordinarily found in the ADR literature, it provides a comprehensive and comparative perspective on modes of handling civil disputes. The new edition is thoroughly revised and is extended to include new chapters on avoidance and self-help, the ombuds, Online Dispute Resolution and pressures of institutionalisation.

Cases, Materials, Commentary Third Edition
Third Edition
Olivier De Schutter, Université Catholique de Louvain International human rights law has expanded remarkably since the 1990s. It is therefore more important than ever to identify, beyond specific controversies, its deeper structure and the general pattern of evolution. Moreover, it has a logic of its own: though part of international law, it borrows many of its principles from domestic constitutional law. This leading textbook meets both challenges. It has been significantly updated for the new third edition, introducing sections on subjects including business and human rights, amongst other key areas. Features include forty new cases from various jurisdictions or expert bodies, and figures offering visual descriptions of the procedures discussed in the text. The ‘questions for discussion’ have also been systematically updated. The text retains its studentfriendly design, and the features which made the previous editions so engaging and accessible remain. This popular textbook continues to be an essential tool for all students of human rights law. Contents Part I. The Sources: 1. The rise of international human rights 2. State responsibility and ‘jurisdiction’ Part II. The Substantive Obligations: 3. Respecting human rights: avoiding interference 4. Protecting human rights: regulating private actors introduction 5. Fulfilling human rights: progressive realization 6. Derogations in time of public emergency 7. The prohibition of discrimination Part III. The Mechanisms of Protection: 8. Ensuring compliance with international human rights law: the role of national authorities 9. The United Nations human rights treaties system introduction 10. The United Nations charter-based monitoring of human rights 11. Regional mechanisms of protection
Ilias Bantekas, Hamad bin Khalifa University Lutz Oette, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London This unique textbook merges human rights law with its practice, from the courtroom to the battlefield. Human rights are analysed in their particular context, and the authors assess, among other things, the impact of international finance, the role of NGOs, and the protection of rights in times of emergency, including the challenges posed by counter-terrorism. In parallel, a series of interviews with practitioners, case studies and practical applications offer multiple perspectives and challenging questions on the effective implementation of human rights. Although the book comprehensively covers the traditional areas of international human rights law, including its regional and international legal and institutional framework, it also encompasses, through distinct chapters or large sections, areas that have a profound impact on human rights worldwide, such as women’s rights, human rights and globalisation, refugees and migration, human rights obligations of non-state actors, debt and human rights, and others. Contents 1. International human rights law and notions of human rights: foundations, achievements and challenges. 2. International human rights law: the normative framework. 3. Human rights in practice. 4. The United Nations Charter system. 5. The UN human rights treaty system. 6. Regional human rights treaty system. 7. Individual complaints procedures. 8. Civil and political rights. 9. Economic, social and cultural rights. 10. Group rights: self-determinations, minorities and indigenous peoples. 11. The human rights of women. 12. Children’s rights. 13. The recognition and protection of the human rights of vulnerable groups and persons. 14. The right to development and sustainable development. 15. Victims’ rights and reparation. 16. The application of human rights in armed conflict. 17. Human rights and international criminal justice. 18. Human rights and counter-terrorism. 19. Human rights obligations of nonstate actors. 20. Globalisation and its impact on human rights.

International Human Rights Law Documents
Emily Crawford, University of Sydney Alison Pert, University of Sydney
Edited by Urfan Khaliq, Cardiff University
The law that regulates armed conflicts is one of the oldest branches of international law, and yet continues to be one of the most dynamic areas of law today. This book provides an accessible, scholarly, and up-to-date examination of international humanitarian law, offering a comprehensive and logical discussion and analysis of the law. The book contains detailed examples, extracts from relevant cases, useful discussion questions, and a recommended reading list for every chapter. Emerging trends in theory and practice of international humanitarian law are also explored, allowing for readers to build on their knowledge, and grapple with some of the biggest challenges facing the law of armed conflict in the twentyfirst century. This second edition offers new sections on issues like detention in non-international armed conflict, characterisation of non-international armed conflicts, expanded chapters on occupation and the protection of civilians, means and methods of warfare, and implementation, enforcement and accountability.
This is an accessible collection of key universal and regional human rights law treaties and other related documents. It will appeal to students studying international human rights law as well as related courses for which no similar statute book exists: international humanitarian law; law and development; and international labour law.

“Refreshing and argumentative, but also clear and concise - this textbook is a must for those wanting to combine the acquisition of knowledge with a deeper appreciation of the disagreements and controversies that abound in International Law.” Nigel White, School of Law, University of Nottingham
Written by one of the world’s leading international lawyers, this is the new and updated edition of Jan Klabbers’ landmark textbook. International law can be defined as ‘the rules governing the legal relationship between nations and states’, but in reality it is much more complex, with political, diplomatic and socio-economic factors shaping the law and its application. This refreshingly clear, concise textbook encourages students to view international law as a dynamic system of organising the world. Bringing international law back to its first principles, the book is organised around four questions: Where does it come from? To whom does it apply? How does it resolve conflict? And what does it say? Building on these questions with both academic rigour and clarity of expression, Professor Klabbers breathes life and energy into the subject. Footnotes point students to the wider academic debate while chapter introductions and final remarks reinforce learning. This third edition includes references to new case-law and literature, and features brief discussions on recent topics of general interest, including Brexit and the worldwide outbreak of the Coronavirus.

M. Sornarajah, National University of Singapore

The climate surrounding foreign investment law is one of controversy and change, and with implications for human rights and environmental protection, foreign investment law has gained widespread public attention and visibility. This fully updated edition of Sornarajah’s classic text offers thought-provoking analysis of the law in historical, political and economic contexts, capturing leading trends and charting the possible course of future developments. It takes into account the newer types of treaties that establish a regulatory space for states and moves away from inflexible investment protection, exploring the newly created defences relating to environment, human rights, Indigenous rights and other areas ending the fragmentation of the law. It looks at the current debates on legitimacy of the system and current efforts at reform. Suitable for postgraduate and undergraduate students, The International Law on Foreign Investment is essential reading for anyone specialising in the law of foreign investments.
International Law is the definitive and authoritative text on the subject. It has long been established as a leading authority in the field, offering an unbeatable combination of clarity of expression and academic rigour, ensuring understanding and analysis in an engaging and authoritative style. Explaining the leading rules, practice and case law, this treatise retains and develops the detailed referencing which encourages and assists the reader in further study. This new edition has been fully updated to reflect recent developments. In particular, it has expanded the treatment of space law and of international economic law, and introduced new sections on cyber operations and cyber warfare, as well as reflecting the Covid-19 crisis. Both clarifying fundamental principles and facilitating additional research, International Law is invaluable for students and for those occupied in private practice, governmental service and international organisations.

Taxation Law
Cambridge University Press is proud to announce that we are publishing new editions of Taxation Law titles by Stephen Barkoczy.
Foundations of Taxation Law 2022 Thirteenth Edition
Foundations of Taxation Law 2022, 13e Barkoczy
Foundations of Taxation Law provides a concise introduction to the policy, principles and practice that underpin the Australian taxation system. Designed as an introductory guide, the text focuses on general principles, blending policy issues, taxation theory, technical ‘black letter law’ and commercial practice into a succinct, principled text. Although the book is a legal text, it does not focus exclusively on legal issues. The discussion in the chapters also touches on a wide range of social, economic, political and international comparative issues. Taxation law, perhaps more than any other area of law, is affected by these broader considerations.
The main emphasis of the text is on Commonwealth taxes, particularly income tax, goods and services tax, fringe benefits tax and superannuation taxes. It also examines various state and territory taxes, as well as a number of levies and charges. The more fundamental material is covered in the earlier chapters so that students who are undertaking basic courses are able to focus on those chapters. Students who are undertaking advanced courses, on the other hand, will have more use for the later chapters, which are more specialised and deal with more technically complex issues. Topics have been developed in a logical and structured order and are cross-referenced to specific provisions in the legislation and relevant cases so that readers are able to easily find the source of the law. The text provides numerous examples, over 50 diagrams and over 90 tables that condense the law and help clarify difficult concepts.
End-of-chapter study questions
Online resources
To assist students with their exam preparation, the book contains a set of study questions at the end of each chapter linked to the specific topics covered in that chapter. The questions test fundamental issues that students need to understand in order to properly grasp key concepts. They can also be used by lecturers as a basis for tutorial discussions. The more than 500 questions have been designed in such a way that they examine core issues from both a practical (calculation and problem based) perspective as well as a conceptual (theoretical and policy-based) perspective.
PowerPoint This text is supported by a comprehensive set of additional resources. Lecturers who prescribe the text have access to a 1,000+ slide PowerPoint deck that is cross-referenced to the relevant topics in the text.
