Book Description

Public awareness regarding the life-threatening nature and intense traumatic impact of domestic violence has substantially increased in the past decade. At the same time, dramatic changes have taken place regarding criminal justice and social work policies and practices applied to domestic violence intervention. And while the prevalence of domestic violence has declined slightly, national estimates still indicate that every year, approximately eight million women are abused, battered, stalked, or killed by their husbands, boyfriends, and other intimate partners. Featuring cutting-edge research and expert intervention strategies, the Handbook of Intervention Strategies with Domestic Violence: Policies, Programs, and Legal Remedies is designed to prepare professionals to swiftly and compassionately meet the multiple needs of women and children who have suffered from domestic violence. This original and indispensable volume focuses on the numerous advances in legal remedies, program developments, treatment protocols, and multidisciplinary perspectives. It is a comprehensive guide to the latest research, public policies, and legal and criminal justice responses, covering federal and state legislation as well as trends in police and court responses to domestic violence. This is the first book to include court-based technology developments and new research related to the duration and intensity of woman battering. Highlighting actual cases and promising programs, the handbook also addresses important social work issues, including risk assessment protocols, a new five level continuum of woman battering, intervention methods, and treatment models. The book also examines the myriad legal issues and health problems facing the most neglected and vulnerable battered women. Written by expert practitioners and leading scholars in the field, the book's 23 chapters provide rich insights into the complexities and challenges of addressing domestic violence. This timely and definitive handbook is recommended for students, clinicians, policy makers, and researchers in the fields of social work, victim services, criminal justice, hospital administration, mental health counseling, public health, pastoral counseling, law enforcement. In fact, this volume is a critical resource for all helping professionals who are assisting abused women in escaping and remaining free from violent relationships.

Book Description

In a mere quarter-century, restorative justice has grown from a few scattered experimental projects into a worldwide social movement. Moving beyond its origins within the criminal justice arena, restorative justice is now being applied in schools, homes and the workplace.

The restorative justice approach challenges the idea that state punishment is the best method of achieving justice. This "restorative" alternative strives to directly address the needs of all persons affected by a crime or a harm, often by bringing together victims, offenders and community members in some form of structured mediation or dialogue.

The distinguished contributors to this book are all long-term advocates and practitioners of restorative justice from North America, Europe, Australia/New Zealand and South Africa. The 31 chapters confront the key threats to the integrity and effectiveness of the emerging international restorative justice movement: (1) cooptation or diversion from its core mission, and the possibility that reforms may cause unintended consequences; (2) being relegated primarily to "minor" crimes or conflicts, so that it has minimal impact on the overall system or justice; and (3) inherent flaws that undermine its effectiveness, such as failure to address social problems that breed conflicts, and methods skewed by cultural or gender biases.

Book Description

This volume reviews and assesses the legal remedies available under the WTO Agreement. It examines these remedies in light of reparative and punitive theories of justice, and concludes that WTO remedies are distinct because they seek principally to achieve compliance with the WTO Agreement. They do so principally by identifying a violation and leaving it to the parties to negotiate a settlement. The aim is neither to correct the injury, nor to punish the wrongdoer; but to create a new legal situation in which the wrong is unlikely to recur. WTO remedies are therefore akin to the declarative relief traditionally granted in public international law and domestic public law. A the same time, they pose a challenge to a developing international legal system that is increasingly oriented towards corrective and punitive justice. This is the first comprehensive text offering a complete review of remedial law and practice under the WTO Agreement. It provides comparisons of WTO law and its remedies and results with public international law, European, and domestic public law. It is highly relevant to lawyers, academics, and government officials seeking an explanation of what WTO dispute settlement actually achieves.

Book Description

This book addresses several aspects of the law and economics of intellectual property rights (IPRs) that have been underanalyzed in the existing literature. The authors demonstrate that the core assumption of IPR regimes--that IPRs maximize certain social benefits over social costs by providing a necessary inducement for the production and distribution of intellectual products--has several important implications for the optimal design of remedies, the standard of care, and the law of standing and joinder.

Narrow scope.......2005-06-23

I haven't yet completed my reading of this book. But since the publisher hasn't allowed Amazon users to read excerpts of it or search in the book, I thought it might be helpful to point out some of the book's limitations.

The book is intentionally limited to a discussion of infringement remedies, and the circumstances under which those remedies should be available. Chapters focus on liability standards for IPR infringement, who is an infringer, standing to sue, and calculation of money damages. The authors also propose a "general theory of damages rules." Throughout the book, the authors consider all major types of IP (patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets) -- though the discussion is limited almost entirely to US law. The economic analysis is neoclassical and very theoretical.

The authors make a significant omission, in my view -- they give scant attention to injunctive relief. There are many interesting issues currently swirling around in US IP jurisprudence concerning injunctions, especially for patents (e.g., who should have standing to seek an injunction for patent infringement), but such topics aren't discussed in any depth, if at all, in this book.

A deeper issue with the book is its non-empirical approach. Even on the subject of damage awards, you won't find any empirical data presented.

Empirical data also seem to me to be quite important for assessing whether IPR statutes truly provide incentives for innovation. Unfortunately, these supposed incentive effects are too often taken for granted. This book is no exception. Here's a quote from the introduction (pp. 2-3):

"[A]ll of the various bodies of IP law ideally strike a balance between incentives (to publish, to invest in product quality) on the one hand, and public access to the work product that results from these incentives, on the other. Just where the ideal balance lies remains a matter of disagreement. ... But our goal in this book is not to resolve these issues. Instead, we will assume that the policymaker has chosen a particular scope and duration for the IPR at issue, and that this choice reflects some reasoned consideration about the proper balance of social benefits and costs. ... As we will see, some ... enforcement rules may function better than others at preserving the incentive structure embedded in the substantive law; others may be less costly to apply, but may not function as effectively at preserving that structure."

My disappointment with this passage isn't that the authors avoid the issue of how to balance incentives and access. It's that they neither question nor demonstrate the existence of the incentive effects of IPR statutes, yet they propose to devote much of the book to looking at how to "preserve" these effects.

Because of the severe limitations of the authors' approach, I'm constrained to give the book at most three stars, regardless of what virtues I may discover in it as I complete my reading.

Book Description

Since the landmark desegregation decisions in the Brown vs. Board of Education cases, the proper role of the federal judiciary has been hotly debated. Has the federal judiciary, in its attempt to legislate social policy, overstepped its constitutional boundaries? In this volume, Gary McDowell considers the equity power created by Article III of the Constitution, on which the most controversial decisions of the Supreme Court have rested. He points out the equity was originally understood as an extraordinary means of offering relief to individuals in cases of fraud, accident, mistake, or trust and as a means of "confining the operation of unjust and partial laws." It has now been stretched to offer relief to broadly defined social classes. This "sociological" understanding, in McDowell's view, has undermined equity as a substantive body of law. He urges a return to the former definition as a means of restraining the reach of federal jurisdiction.

This is a fine book - who cares about grammatical errors? Its content babay! - Content !! The book is dense because Remedies touches on every area of substantive law & equity ! I rated this 3 stars because "nobody is perfect" !

Is he paid by the word?.......2005-11-22

The author appears to have a knack for making overly complicated that which should be easily grasped , eschewing the readily comprehensible in favor of a profusion of arcane terms of art, circular reasoning, and needlessly drawn-out redundancies. Like Clarence in his Malmsey he lurches to and fro, chapters marked by an airy, over-the-river-and-through-the-woods approach that seldom leaves the reader feeling any more informed than he was before he started. And as a previous reviewer noted, the tome is riddled with typographical and grammatical errors which do little to ease the put-upon reader's sense of frustration. Repeated and highly focused attempts at critical reading succeeded in educing little more than a profound sense of mental lassitude, with nary a smidgen of enlightenment to reward my efforts. As the ashes settle, I find this little more than an errant vanity work foisted upon the captive audience unfortunate enough to have it assigned as a text.

Mis-Understanding Remedies.......2005-10-14

The book is filled with typographical and grammatical errors, the text is pedantic and verbose, and the general tenor of the discussion is one of ambivalence. Fischer does little to clarify the often murky aspects of the law of Remedies, and often contradicts himself within the same pages. It is endlessly repetitive and tedious reading that might have been instructive at one-fifth the length.

Book Description

The problems embodied in this book differ from the usual academic presentation in several ways. First, students are not initially confronted with an authoritative statement of "law" but with facts and human problems. Second, except in the four introductory chapters, the problems are not organized to present an orderly sequence of remedies rules. Instead, they are organized around diverse factual settings, so the issues come to the student just as they come to lawyers in practice—helter-skelter. Requires students to work analytically, not in an organization dictated by the logic of a casebook.
