Comparative
Law in a Global Context: The Legal Systems of Asia and Africa
by Werner Menski
This is a new and unique study, presenting detailed analyses of
the conceptual foundations of Hindu, Muslim, African and Chinese
laws within a comparative and theoretical legal framework. The globally-focused,
interdisciplinary legal analysis shows that, in all legal traditions
of Asia and Africa, there are in essence three continuously interacting
law-founding elements which manifest themselves in quite different
ways and have given rise to quite disparate discourses. These three
complex factors, religion and worldviews, society and its normative
orders, and the state and its laws, are ideally expected to work
together in the never-ending process of normative reconstruction
to achieve balanced, sustainable legal orders for the present as
well as the future. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Vessel-source
Marine Pollution: The Law and Politics of International Regulation
by Alan Khee-Jin Tan
Analysing the regulation of vessel-source pollution from the perspective
of the political interests of key players in the ship transportation
industry, Alan Khee-Jin Tan offers a comprehensive and convincing
account of how pollution of the marine environment by ships may
be better regulated and reduced. In this timely study, he traces
the history of regulation at the International Maritime Organisation
(I.M.O.) and investigates the political, economic and social forces
influencing the IMO treaties. Also examined are the efforts of maritime
states, ship-owners, cargo owners, oil companies and environmental
groups to influence IMO laws and treaties. This is an important
book, which uncovers the politics behind the law and offers solutions
for overcoming the deficiencies in the regulatory system. It will
be of great interest to professionals in the shipping industry as
well as practitioners and students.
