Abstract:

This chapter shifts the focus from the analytical and the descriptive to the normative and the reflective. A key issue is how public values can be forced upon the ecosystem’s architecture—an architecture whose core is overwhelmingly controlled by (US) tech giants pushing economic values and corporate interests, often at the expense of a (European) focus on social values and collective interests. The mechanisms of datafication, commodification, and selection seem to afford tech companies unprecedented infrastructural, sectoral, and intersectoral powers. However, the ecosystem’s architecture is

In the mid-twentieth century, Kālīghāṭ became a site that middle-class actors could not only write about but also act upon in an official capacity. Because Kālīghāṭ was never royally patronized, East India Company and British official bodies did not take over the role of departing royal powers there as they did at other temples across India. Instead, middle-class actors took it upon themselves to modernize Kālīghāṭ’s management system in the mid-twentieth century. One Brahmin temple proprietor brought a complaint against 84 others to a district court in the 1930s, alleging that his brethren ha

Abstract:

Although arbitration awards are final and binding, losing parties may sometimes commence a second set of proceedings on slightly different grounds from the first in an attempt to raise doubt over the status and enforceability of the first award and/or to delay enforcement. In England, the doctrine of abuse of process has been utilized to prevent a second action being pursued. The English courts have developed the principle to prevent collateral attacks on prior judgments and, now, arbitral awards and by so doing, ensure the finality of judgments and awards.

The Seventy-third Amendment required States to create self-governing, elected village councils, or panchayats, while the Seventy-fourth Amendment required the creation of elected municipalities in urban areas. The history of local self-government in India is discussed, before turning to a discussion of the constitutional position of local government i

Abstract:

This chapter discusses the strengths and limitations of criminal law in controlling corruption. Some experts claim that criminal law misses the systemic nature of corruption, whereas others prefer prevention to prosecution. Regardless, there can be no question that prosecution of bribery is necessary. Various experiences with self-governing bodies have demonstrated that without the legal risk of prosecution self-regulation rarely works. The chapter asks questions such as: Who is a “foreign public official”? What about the perpetual “facilitation payments”? Are prosecutors and courts out of the

Abstract:

Collaboration with industry has become the paradigm in public health. Governments commonly develop close relationships with companies that are creating or exacerbating the very problems public health agencies are trying to solve. Nowhere is this more evident than in partnerships with food and soda companies to address obesity and diet-related noncommunicable diseases. The author argues that public-private partnerships and multistakeholder initiatives create webs of influence that undermine the integrity of public health agencies; distort public health research and policy; and reinforce the fra

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.

Many Americans may believe that religion in the schools is a controversial subject only in the United States. But around the world, the subject has gained widespread notoriety, media coverage, and attention from governing bodies, school administrations, and individuals. In France, conflict erupted when a young girl wore a headscarf to her public school; the government there got involved to reassert the rule that no outward display of religion will be tolerated. In India, a panel was appointed to remove Hindu religious beliefs from high-school textbooks. In Pakistan, the government passed a law
