‎Concerning Justice‎

‎2002. ISBN-13: 9781584772347; ISBN-10: 1584772344. Emery Lucilius A. Concerning Justice. Originally published: New Haven: Yale University Press 1914. vii 170 pp. Reprinted 2002 by The Lawbook Exchange Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584772347; ISBN-10: 1584772344. Hardcover. $60. This volume reprints the Storrs lectures delivered by Emery 1840-1920 at Yale University in 1914. Emery's profound knowledge of constitutional law and keen interest in philosophy and history are clearly evident here. Beginning with conceptions of justice in Antiquity and in the Judeo-Christian tradition Emery develops a general theory of rights and uses it as a basis for his definition of justice. His other lectures deal with the securing of justice. Influenced perhaps by the outbreak of hostilities in Europe Emery asserts that the United States has created the finest system yet for its preservation. "It is most emphatically a book which once read is kept on hand for a re-reading." H.W.C. Yale L.J. 24: 263 as cited in Marke A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University 1953 191.

This is unfortunate because these texts lose a great deal of their meaning when they are extracted from their original social and cultural context. Nasmith's Outline addresses this problem directly by making "that which is understood as Roman history go hand in hand with chronological changes in Roman law and to furnish the reader and myself with an outline of pegs so arranged as to enable us easily and accurately to store our future acquisitions" vi. Nasmith's tone is utilitarian but his work is quite sophisticated. What is more it is a significant work of cultural history based on a study of legal institutions. unknown books‎

Martens 1756-1821 was a German diplomat and jurist who published several important treatises on international law. Like Bynkershoeck and Moser Martens rejected the idea that international law derived from God or nature. Instead it is an acquired behavior practiced by civilized states. This perspective informs his Essay on Privateers which was one of the first books on the subject.

Smythe sewn russet cloth bound hardcover. New. $25. Concerned with "rationalizing the rules" Preface p. v of constructive trusts this reappraisal of the English law of trusts discounts two major existing theses regarding the rules first that based on the North American experience they should be considered as instruments of restitution; and second that they are disorganized and advances Elias' new thesis that "the rules should be regarded as instruments for the rational furtherance of three good aims: 1 making disponors abide by their dispositions.2 making those who gain through loss to others give the gains up to those others.3 making those who inflict losses on others repair those losses." Preface p. v. Revision of the author's Ph.D. thesis at Oxford University. Prof. Lionel Smith a distinguished international expert in the law of trusts applauds this work: "Elias' book Explaining Constructive Trusts marks an important landmark in the development of this legal institution. Elias explained and ultimately rejected two extreme ways of understanding the constructive trust. On the one hand is the thesis still widely accepted in North America that all constructive trusts arise to prevent unjust enrichment. On the other hand is the traditional view still popular in England that constructive trusts respond to such a wide range of situations that it is impossible to classify them in any meaningful way in terms of their causative events. Elias developed an intermediate thesis in which the known constructive trusts could be grouped into coherent but differentiated categories. Some do indeed arise to prevent unjust enrichment; but others arise to perfect a party's intention in relation to the disposition of his assets; and still other cases in which the language of constructive trust have been used are actually cases of compensation for loss wrongfully caused. Much of the subsequent work on understanding constructive trusts has been built on these foundations. unknown books‎

While traditional welfare efforts have waned a new style of social policy implementation has emerged dramatically in recent decades. The new style is reflected in a panoply of Community Economic Development ced initiatives-efforts led by locally-based organizations to develop housing jobs and business opportunities in low-income neighborhoods. In this book William H. Simon provides the first comprehensive examination of the evolution of Community Economic Development complete with an analysis of its operating premises and strategies. He describes the profusion of new institutional forms that have arisen from the movement amalgamations that cut across conventional distinctions-such as those between private and public-and that encompass the efforts of nonprofits cooperatives churches business corporations and public agencies. Combining local political mobilization with entrepreneurial initiative and electoral accountability with market competition this phenomenon has catalyzed new forms of property rights designed to motivate investment and civic participation while curbing the dangers of speculation and middle-class flight. With its examination of many localities and its appraisal of the strengths and weaknesses of the prevailing approach to Community Economic Development this book will be a valuable resource for local housing job and business development officials; community activists; and students of law business and social policy. unknown books‎

New. $49.95 Francis Lieber 1798-1872 was a prominent political philosopher and who helped lay the foundation for the study of political science in the United States. Renowned for his theory of civil liberty which combined an appreciation for the English concept of decentralized political institutions that protected the rights of the individual with the German idea of an overall national purpose he bridged the intellectual gap between Europe and America. A Prussian scholar and political activist who was imprisoned twice in Germany for his liberalism he was one of the first university-trained scholars to emigrate to the United States. A scholar of wide interests beyond law and politics he published studies on economics statistics education and penal reform and produced and edited the Encyclopedia America the first work of its kind published in the United States. He became professor of history and political economy at South Carolina College and was later appointed to the same chair at Columbia College. In 1865 he moved to Columbia Law School where he was renowned for his contributions. Dictionary of American Biography VI: 236-237. "There have been earlier studies of the career of Francis Lieber but this book will rank as the definitive biography. The author has not only exhausted the archival material and the voluminous correspondence between this extraordinary German emigre scholar and the hundreds of men whom he knew during his sojourn in America from 1827 to 1872 but he used them to produce a very readable account of Lieber's career and political and social philosophy." Carl Wittke Indiana Law Review 34:732-734. unknown books‎
