Discrimination and the Foundation of Justice
Hate Speech, Affirmative Action, Institutional Opinions
2023 || Hardcover || E. Dijkstra || Eleven international publishing

So why are these approaches so common? And can we find a viable alternative?
In this new book, legal scholar Erwin Dijkstra answers these questio...

Independence and Impartiality in International Commercial Arbitration
An Analysis with Comparative References to English, French, German, Swiss, and United States Law
2021 || Hardcover || Ilka Hanna Beimel || Eleven international publishing
Independence and impartiality are key to any judicial process. The dualistic nature of arbitration, i.e., being judicial and contractual, raises the question of how to set the standard of independence and impartiality in arbitration. On the one hand, arbitrators are decision makers similar to judges. On the other hand, they solve disputes outside the courtroom and are (often) appointed by the parties due to their individual expertise.
Against this backdrop, this book analyses the state of pla...

Because of these simplifi cations, policy becomes superfi cial, often with disappointing results.
This book searches for an alternative policy orie...

The Case for Parallelism
2023 || Hardcover || Derek R. Brookes || Eleven international publishing

These distinct aims require such different processes and priorities that any attempt to integrate restorative justice within the criminal justice system will almost invariably undermine the quality and effectiveness of both. In this book, the author argues that the optimal relationship ...
