Rule Of Law In Singapore - Legal Communitarianism, Paternal Democracy And The Developmentalist State

by Li-Ann Thio

~~53,65€~~ 48,29€ 10% OFF

 This book examines the operation of the rule of law in the non-liberal democracy of Singapore. The rule of law in Singapore has been both lauded for anchoring efficient and effective government and lambasted for being procedural and statist. 21st-century Singapore has experienced modest political liberalisation, manifesting a paternal democracy where the governor-governed relationship is evolving, from a ''father knows best'' paternalistic mindset to a more consultative approach to governance, where dialogue rather than diktat is the norm in a post-deferential era. The Singapore case study helps pluralise the rule of law as a universal principle which moderates power, and may be variously implemented. The book examines the reception of the rule of law within the Singapore legal order, and how it interacts with constitutional principles like the separation of powers and democracy in the design of constitutional institutions and forging of structural and rights-oriented judicial review. It considers how the rule of law, contoured by legal communitarianism, sustains a managed democracy in relation to legislation governing internal security, public assemblies, religious harmony and online falsehoods. It questions whether the chilling of political speech by strict laws on political defamation and contempt of court has been significantly defrosted by important developments which seek ordered liberty through a more calibrated form of review. Lucid and engaging, this book will be of interest to researchers working in constitutional law.

Rule Of Law In Germany - Bringing The Rechtsstaat Into The 21st Century

by Dana Burchardt e Hannah Birkenk Tter

~~51,26€~~ 46,13€ 10% OFF

 The rule of law, or Rechtsstaatsprinzip, is one of Germany''s oldest constitutional principles and forms part of Germany''s constitutional self-understanding. This book critically examines to what extent this key constitutional principle has translated into a reality for all. The book provides a comprehensive insight into rule of law experiences and discourses in Germany. It explores Germany''s long rule of law tradition and highlights where the German state has fallen short of its rule of law promise, using historical and contemporary examples. It also shows that Germany''s rule of law experience is tightly interwoven with European and international rule of law debates. By integrating historical, socio-legal and doctrinal perspectives, the book provides a nuanced account of a foundational principle in German constitutional thought. Dedicated chapters explore the history and doctrine of the rule of law, challenges to the rule of law in today''s Germany, the rule of law experience in the former German Democratic Republic and in the context of reunification, the relationship of the German rule of law practice with the rule of law on the European and international level, and the rule of law in times of crisis. This includes challenges to the rule of law through anti-terrorism measures, as well as the more recent COVID-19 pandemic and the so-called migration crisis, but also how the rule of law has been discursively (mis-)used in those situations. In concluding, the book highlights digitalisation as a challenge to the future of the rule of law in Germany.

Rule Of Law In Brazil - The Legal Construction Of Inequality

by Juliano Zaiden Benvindo

52,46€ + 10% CARD

 This book provides a broad perspective of the functioning, evolution, and dynamics of the rule of law in Brazil. It stresses not only how the rule of law has developed in the legal system, but also how the political institutions and extra-legal organisations have transformed its foundations. The rule of law is not a simple concept when it comes to defining the political, economic, and legal developments of a country like Brazil. Similar to many other Latin American countries, Brazil is a young democracy struggling with its longstanding extractive institutions and entrenched interests. It features, however, one of Latin America''s richest constitutional moments, when civil society actively participated in drafting the most democratic constitution in the country''s history. Brazil has since strengthened its institutions and the rule of law, but the road toward consolidating them has been challenged by inequality and the legacies of that authoritarian past. The book explores how Brazilian democracy has dealt with the high levels of social inequality and the authoritarian mindset that still play a big role in its fate, and asks whether the country''s democratic achievements and institutional framework are sufficiently strong to enforce the rule of law as an imperative for Brazil''s development, especially in times when the country is most in need of them.
