Book Description
The Global Community Yearbook is a one-stop resource for all researchers studying international law generally or international tribunals specifically. The Yearbook has established itself as an authoritative source of reference on global legal issues and international jurisprudence. It includes analysis of the most significant global trends in a way that allows readers to monitor the development of the global legal order from several perspectives. The Global Community Yearbook publishes annually in a volume of carefully chosen primary source material and corresponding expert commentary. The general editor, Professor Giuliana Ziccardi Capaldo, employs her vast expertise in international law to select excerpts from important court opinions and to choose experts from around the world to contribute essay-guides, which illuminate those cases. Although the main focus is recent case law from the major international tribunals and regional courts, the first four parts of each year's edition features expert articles by renowned scholars who address broader themes in current and future developments in international law and global policy, themes that appear throughout the case law of the many courts covered by the series as a whole. The Global Community Yearbook has thus become not just an indispensable window to recent jurisprudence: the series now also serves to prepare researchers for the issues facing emerging global law. The 2019 edition both updates readers on the important work of long-standing international tribunals and introduces readers to more novel topics in international law. The Yearbook continues to provide expert coverage of the Court of Justice of the European Union and diverse tribunals from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to criminal tribunals such as the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the International Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals (MICT), to economically based tribunals such as ICSID and the WTO Dispute Resolution panel. This edition contains original research articles on the development and analysis of the concept of global law and the views of the global law theorists such as: a judicial knowledge sharing process as a tool for courts working together in a universal constitutional structure; the role of human rights treaty monitoring bodies in the international legal order; and an examination of the consequences of the UN compact for the safe, orderly and regular migration on international law. The Yearbook provides students, scholars, and practitioners alike a valuable combination of expert discussion and direct quotes from the court opinions to which that discussion relates, as well as an annual overview of the process of cross-fertilization between international courts and tribunals. The Yearbook provides students, scholars, and practitioners alike a valuable combination of expert discussion and direct quotes from the court opinions to which that discussion relates, as well as an annual overview of the process of cross-fertilization between international courts and tribunals and a section focusing on the thought of leading international law scholars on the subject of the globalization. This publication can also be purchased on a standing order basis.

Book Description
This handbook provides readers with coverage of the various interview and interrogation techniques used across the world with victims, witnesses, and suspected offenders. It includes exclusive coverage on countries rarely, if ever, previously reported upon in the literature to any substantive depth. Bringing together a collection of chapters from over 40 countries, this handbook advises and explains the practices used in crime interviewing and informs the reader of contemporary developments hitherto unreported in any current book on interviewing and interrogation. In doing so, the Routledge International Handbook of Investigative Interviewing and Interrogation showcases global exemplars of evidence-based practice informed by scientific research. Building on recent research, including protocols developed in a variety of countries, this book is particularly timely in the wake of the "Méndez Principles", a set of principles developed by the UN (i) to counter the ill-treatment of suspects during police questioning and (ii) to gather more reliable information. This handbook will be an essential reference text across criminology, criminal justice, policing and investigation studies, and law.

Book Description
En el transcurso de tres décadas, América Latina ha sido escenario de numerosas reformas a las instituciones de justicia, entre las cuales se encuentra el régimen especializado de adolescentes. La región navega entre dos corrientes: una que promueve los derechos humanos y un régimen garantista, y otra que impulsa políticas punitivas y criminaliza a la juventud. Este libro muestra qué son los sistemas de justicia para adolescentes y en qué medida promueven el reconocimiento de derechos humanos de niñas, niños y jóvenes, procuran la transformación de las conductas ilícitas y proporcionan alternativas de salida. Las autoras y autores comparan cuatro países (Brasil, Chile, México y Uruguay) con sistemas relativamente similares de tratamiento de adolescentes infractores, muestran los desafíos que enfrentan para implementarlo, así como el enorme lastre del pasado punitivo penalista reflejado en las leyes, las instituciones y el comportamiento de las autoridades judiciales y policiales. El panorama general presenta una imagen de un sistema de justicia para adolescentes inacabado y débil que no atiende plenamente los problemas de fondo. Las políticas públicas hacia este sector de la población siguen siendo marginales. En estas condiciones, la posibilidad de las adolescencias de acceder a la justicia seguirá siendo un magnífico reto en América Latina. El libro es resultado de una investigación financiada por el Fondo Conjunto de Cooperación México-Uruguay, de sus agencias nacionales: Agencia Mexicana de Cooperación Internacional para el Desarrollo (AMEXCID) y Agencia Uruguaya de Cooperación Internacional (AUCI), y de la colaboración de la Universidad de la República y El Colegio de México.

Book Description
"cross the spectrum of political ideologies there is, in principle, widespread agreement that the state has a legitimate role in protecting children from harm. Even the Nobel Prize winning economist Milton Friedman (1962), among the most ardent liberal supporters of the laissez faire philosophy, recognized this "paternalistic" function of government. At the same time, the traditional view of children, that they are the property of the father (pater) or the parents, is under pressure (Zelizer, 1994; James & Prout, 1997; Archard 2004). Societies are at an intersection when it comes to how children are treated and how their rights are respected, which creates tensions in the traditional relationship between the family and the state. Children are a focus of government responsibility under certain state-defined norms relating to harm and need. And parents are sometimes constrained by the state from exercising their (familial or property) rights under state-defined criteria of harm and need"--
