The Social Constitution : Embedding Social Rights Through Legal Mobilization
In The Social Constitution, Whitney Taylor examines the conditions under which new constitutional rights become meaningful and institutionalized.Taylor introduces the concept of 'embedding' constitutional law to clarify how particular visions of law come to take root both socially and legally.Constitutional embedding can occur through legal mobilization, as citizens understand the law in their own way and make legal claims - or choose not to - on the basis of that understanding, and as judges decide whether and how to respond to legal claims.These interactions ultimately construct the content and strength of the constitutional order.Taylor draws on more than a year of fieldwork across Colombia and multiple sources of data, including semi-structured interviews, original surveys, legal documents, and participation observation.This title is part of the Flip it Open Programme and may also be available Open Access.Check our website Cambridge Core for details.

Family Law and Personal Life
Developments in the law, scholarship, and research since 2006 form a substantial part of the second edition of this book which sets the governance of personal relationships in the context of the exercise of social and personal power.Its central argument is that this power is counterbalanced by the presence of individual rights.This entails an analysis of the nature and deployment of rights, including human rights, and children's rights.Against that background, the book examines the values of friendship, truth, respect, and responsibility, and how the values of individualism co-exist with those of the community in an open society.It argues that central to these values is respecting the role of intimacy in personal relationships.In doing this, a variety of issues are examined, including the legal regulation of married and unmarried relationships, same-sex marriage, state supervision over the inception and exercise of parenthood (including surrogacy and assisted reproductive technology), the role of fault and responsibility in divorce law, children's rights and welfare, religion and family rights, the rights of separated partners regarding property and of separated parents regarding their children, and how states should respond to cultural diversity.

Human Rights and Peace : A Personal Odyssey
Zafra Lerman was precocious as a little girl growing up in Israel.She grew up with deep-seeded values—values so deeply held that they became ingrained in her being.These values led her to dedicate her life to using science diplomacy to fight for peace and for human rights.She also developed a new curriculum, where she taught science through art, music, dance, and drama.This curriculum was successful with underprivileged students around the world. This book is a genre-busting first-person narrative in which Prof.Lerman recounts her remarkable life—a life that has led her all around the world from the Soviet Union to Peru, from China to Cuba, and beyond where she fought for dissidents who were being denied basic human rights. And, perhaps most importantly, her life has led her to Malta, the first site of the Malta Conferences.After the September 11 attacks on the United States, Prof.Lerman conceived, coordinated, and launched the Malta Conferences—the biennial, international meetings of scientists from all Middle East countries, Nobel laureates, and political leaders—which use science diplomacy as a bridge to peace in the Middle East. The book is an inspiring call to action showing how the author’s life and work has led to the innovative use of science as diplomacy in the fight for human rights and peace.It is an inspiration to educators, scientists, policymakers, and the general readers.There is no equivalent, competing work.

The Legal Construction of Personal Work Relations
This book explores the conceptual framework of European employment law, focusing on understanding the law's construction of employment relationships.The book draws on extensive comparative research of the legal architecture of employment relations in national legal systems and EU law to analyse the traditional model of the contract of employment and the difficulties of using the traditional model to frame modern working relationships. The authors then present a new model of the foundations of employment relationships, based on the concept of a personal work nexus, and explore the potential of their model to shape the future development of employment law. Throughout the book, the authors analyse the interaction of domestic and EU employment law, and discuss the possibility of future legal harmonisation in the area.They conclude by exploring the potential for a common framework for European employment law, in the context of broader debates surrounding the harmonisation of European private law.

Does an AI that eventually possesses real consciousness then require personal rights?
If an AI were to develop real consciousness, it would raise ethical questions about whether it should be granted personal rights. Consciousness implies the ability to experience emotions, thoughts, and self-awareness, which are often considered the basis for personhood and the entitlement to rights. However, the granting of personal rights to AI would also have significant implications for society and would require careful consideration of the ethical and legal implications. Ultimately, the decision on whether to grant personal rights to conscious AI would likely depend on how society views and values the AI's consciousness and its impact on the world.

What personal experiences have you had with the law of attraction?
I have personally experienced the law of attraction in my life through setting specific goals and intentions, and then seeing them manifest in reality. By focusing on positive thoughts and visualizing my desired outcomes, I have seen opportunities and resources align themselves to help me achieve my goals. Additionally, I have noticed that when I maintain a positive mindset and gratitude, I attract more positive experiences and people into my life. This has reinforced my belief in the power of the law of attraction and the impact of our thoughts and energy on our reality.

Is that personal?
Whether something is personal or not depends on the context and the specific information being discussed. Personal information typically refers to details about an individual's private life, such as their relationships, health, or finances. If the topic being discussed falls into this category, then it could be considered personal. However, if the information is more general or public in nature, then it may not be considered personal. Ultimately, the determination of whether something is personal is subjective and can vary based on individual perspectives.

Does property rights supersede the constitution?
Property rights are protected by the constitution, but they do not necessarily supersede it. The constitution provides a framework for protecting property rights, but it also balances those rights with the broader interests of society. In some cases, the government may have the authority to limit or regulate property rights in the interest of public welfare, as long as it does so within the bounds of the constitution. Therefore, while property rights are important and protected, they are not absolute and must be balanced with other constitutional principles.

Shaped by the Nuanced Constitution : A Critique of Common Law Constitutional Rights
There is growing judicial, academic and political interest in the concept of common law constitutional rights.Concurrently, significant public law judgments, including R (Miller) v The Prime Minister, R (Begum) v Special Immigration Appeals Commission and R (Privacy International) v Investigatory Powers Tribunal, continue to sustain and enrich the academic debate on the nature of the UK constitution. Bringing these two highly topical themes together, the book argues, firstly, that neither common law constitutionalism nor political constitutionalism adequately captures the nature of public law litigation because neither is fully able to account for the co-existence and interplay between parliamentary sovereignty and the rule of law.Advancing the idea of a ‘nuanced’ constitution instead, the book then provides an in-depth analysis of common law constitutional rights, looking at their history, conceptual foundations, contemporary characteristics, coverage and resilience. In doing so, this book highlights and re-conceptualises the dynamics and mechanisms of constitutional law adjudication and provides the first comprehensive critique of common law constitutional rights jurisprudence.It is centred around extensive case law analysis which focuses predominantly on recent Supreme Court judgments.

Personal Identity and the European Court of Human Rights
In this new and burgeoning field in legal and human rights thought, this edited collection explores, by reference to applied philosophy and case law, how the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has developed and presented a right to personal identity, largely through interpretation of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights.Divided into three parts, the collection interrogates: firstly, the construction of personal identity rights at the ECtHR; secondly, whose identity rights are protected; and thirdly, the limits of identity rights.The collection is the first in the Routledge Studies in Law and Humanity series.Contributions from nine leading and emerging legal scholars from the UK, Ireland and continental Europe explore how the right has developed, rights to identity and marriage, LGBTI+, persons with disabilities, religious and cultural issues and critical perspectives on the social construction and framing of the right.The collection is primarily aimed at scholars and advanced students, particularly of human rights law and its theory, Jurisprudence and Philosophy of Law, and those interested in ECtHR jurisprudence, and those interested in the connection between theories of inclusion, belonging and rights, including human rights lawyers.
