This chapter looks at the part of international order relating to surveillance and response to public health emergencies of international concern, which in turn forms part of the broader partial international order on global health. The main actor on international health emergencies control is the World Health Organization (WHO), with the International Health Regulations (IHR) being the applicable legally binding document. Based on much older sanitary agreements, the IHR came into being in 1969. Looking in detail at the response to the major international health emergencies following the compl

Abstract:

David Caron and Esme Shirlow discuss the widespread criticism against investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS). They argue that these critiques must be disentangled in terms of the actors and substantive concerns. A main conclusion is that the misgivings may not be directed towards the dispute settlement mechanism itself, but rather concern broader worries about globalization.

Abstract:

This chapter concerns the provisions laid out in the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) regarding the unlawful disclosure of inside information and market manipulation. Considering the overwhelming evidence of a high level of market abuse activity, the preventative measures laid out here can be considered the MAR’s main contribution. Articles 17 to 21 of the MAR serve to complement the main market abuse prohibitions, serving the ancillary purpose of reducing the potential occurrences of insider dealing or market manipulation, through special, prompt, or objective disclosure requirements weighing on

The main points that are sketched here concern the organization of Plato’s Republic, including the fact that Republic 1 engages in a fruitless search for a definition, which is designed as a salutary lesson about the failure of the Socratic project and the need for a new method in the later books, which do not seek a definition but rather an iconic imaginary city in which to find a case of justice to think about.

Abstract:

This chapter treats Cohen’s main work on aesthetics, Ästhetik des reinen Gefühls. For Cohen, the subject of aesthetics is feeling opposed to volition and cognition; but its concern is with a specific form or aspect of feeling, namely pure feeling. Pure feeling is that which is completely productive, i.e., feeling which is completely independent and does not depend on anything outside itself to create its object. The manifestation of pure feeling Cohen finds in love, and in the love for one particular object, which is man. As in his earlier work on aesthetics, Cohen attempts to delineate a neo-

Others concern the other main assumption that undergirds the specifically logicist aspect of the neo-Fregean project (and equally, of course, Frege's original proj

Why do states take over local school districts? Additionally, why are Republicans—usually the champions of local control and decentralization—leading the efforts to take over local school districts?

When Presbyterians responded to Darwin and Mill they declared the indispensable link between philosophy and theology, and the supremacy of mind and conscience. The chapter concludes by cons

Photography is the most widespread form of visual communication using still images. Since its invention the medium has not changed substantially, or at least not until the recent invention of digital photography. The uses to which photography has been put and the conventions surrounding those uses have, however, evolved significantly. Those analytic philosophers who have written about still photography have for the most part focused on quite a narrow range of topics. Their main concern has been to characterize the nature of the causal link between object photographed and photographic image.

Abstract:

Even when there is nothing wrong with the content of my welfare or self-expression, there may still be contextual facts that deprive you of a reason to respond to me with the concern or respect that would otherwise make sense. This chapter explains three ways in which such ‘context-undermining’ can arise: ‘agency-based’, ‘domain-based’, and ‘meaning-based’ ways. The main emphasis is on showing why we should say that these give rise to contexts in which you lack a reason you would otherwise have had, rather than contexts in which a persisting reason should be excluded from deliberation.

Three major themes or waves of regional reform are distinguished—consolidation, decentralization, and collaboration combined with regionalization. Efficiency has been the main driver, while concern for democracy has been largely a counterweight to some of the actions taken in the name of efficiency. The path of reform can be explained by motives and struggles at the central rather than the local level. Factions (policy networks) within the central government have different opinions on what the local, regional, and central government and agencies should do. In particular, the role of agencies a

This book presents a philosophical analysis of inherited wealth: it examines both the moral foundations of the right to bequeath wealth and the case for restricting that right with an inheritance tax. The book seeks to approach inheritance as a challenge with much contemporary significance but draws on ideas from the history of political philosophy. The positive proposals that emerge count as a sort of hybrid between luck egalitarian and social egalitarian conceptions of justice, with some sensitivity to utilitarian and libertarian insights.
