Written for upper-level and graduate courses in School Law. Providing an all-inclusive treatment of the current status and evolution of the law governing public schools, this is the most comprehensive and well-documented school law text available.

It uniquely blends a detailed treatment of landmark cases with a thorough discussion of the legal context, trends, and generalizations to guide all school personnel in their daily activities.

Primarily written for school administrators and teachers to learn the most important points of the cases and how the cases will impact their practices, this new edition covers a wider range of legal topics, takes a much more in-depth approach to discussing the cases presented, and cites many more current cases that are relevant to practitioners than any other school law textbook in comparison.

Public Interest Law - Lee Epstein, Tracey E. George

This volume convincingly lays to rest two held beliefs that have long impeded scholarly analysis of the role of courts and litigation in American politics: 1) that group resort to the courts is a rather recent phenomenon resulting from actions of the Warren Court and the Civil Rights Movement; and 2) that unique and distinctive features of the judiciary somehow place it beyond or outside analytic frameworks used to study and analyze the role, nature and functioning of other governing institutions such as the Congress and the presidency. The title of the volume ~ Public Interest Law Sourcebook -- accurately describes its central purpose and method as descriptive and informative.

Vademecum of International law, as the label of this textbook indicates, is a brief handbook of public international law. The objective of this textbook is to provide its readers with a coherent introduction into the study of public international law. This textbook therefore explains the main concepts and institutions of public international law. In doing so, where appropriate, the text takes into consideration historic origins and development of the respective institutions of public international law, as well as the historic development of public international law as a whole. This textbook also deliberately includes extensive quotations of both primary texts (such as court decisions or texts of international treaties) as well as thoughts of influential writers in the respective fields of public international law. The resort to extensive quotations should provide the reader with first hand resources without the (always subjective) deformation of the respective source via paraphrasing.

The Law of Net Zero and Nature Positive

This book is the first that provides a comprehensive overview of the law of net zero and nature positive across England and Wales. It sets out the law on net zero, including consideration of the principal domestic legislation, the Climate Change Act 2008, and how legal obligations in respect of net zero translate across different sectors of the economy. While the authors necessarily focus on the law in England and Wales it also provides an international context – reflecting the fact that climate change is ultimately a global phenomenon. No nation should lose sight of the global implications of decisions taken in its own jurisdiction – for example, if we focus solely on territorial greenhouse gas emissions, then we risk exporting those emissions and having a greater impact on global warming. The book considers biodiversity alongside net zero. This is important because human-induced climate change and biodiversity are inextricably linked. Climate change has caused major changes to ecosystems beyond that expected through natural climate variability, and climate change solutions have the potential to either put biodiversity at risk (e.g. large-scale bioenergy) or help restore nature (e.g. nature-based solutions). Biodiversity is important in underpinning the resilience of certain habitats to climate ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Most Tolerant Little Town - Rachel Louise Martin

A “masterful” (Taylor Branch) and “striking” (The New Yorker) portrait of a small town living through tumultuous times, this propulsive piece of forgotten civil rights history—about the first school to attempt court-ordered desegregation in the wake of Brown v. Board—will forever change how you think of the end of racial segregation in America.In graduate school, Rachel Martin was sent to a small town in the foothills of the Appalachians, where locals wanted to build a museum to commemorate the events of September 1956, when Clinton High School became the first school in the former Confederacy to attempt court mandated desegregation. But not everyone wanted to talk. As one founder of the Tennessee White Youth told her, “Honey, there was a lot of ugliness down at the school that year; best we just move on and forget it.” For years, Martin wondered what it was some white residents of Clinton didn’t want remembered. So, she went back, eventually interviewing over sixty townsfolk—including nearly a dozen of the first students to desegregate Clinton High—to piece together what happened back in 1956: the death threats and beatings, picket lines and cross burnings, neighbors turned on neighbors and preachers for the first time at ...

''I cannot think of a better biography of a spy chief''Richard Davenport-Hines, The SpectatorSir Maurice Oldfield was one of the most important British spies of the Cold War era. A farmer’s son from a provincial grammar school who found himself accidentally plunged into the world of espionage, Sir Maurice was the first Chief of MI6 who didn’t come to the role via the traditional public school and Oxbridge route. Oldfield was the voice of British Intelligence in Washington at the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis and the assassination of JFK, and was largely responsible for keeping the UK out of the Vietnam War. Working his way to the top of the secret service, he took on the job of rebuilding confidence in the British Secret Service in the wake of the Philby, Burgess and Maclean spy scandals.This is the fascinating life story, told in detail for the first time, of a complex, likable character as well as a formidable intelligence chief.

International Law and the Public - Geoffrey P. R. Wallace

In International Law and the Public, Geoffrey P.R. Wallace investigates the public as a crucial, often overlooked, actor in international law. He asks just who is it that counts in the operation of the international legal order. Defying conventional wisdom that sees governments, leaders, generals, lawyers, or elites from the upper echelons of society as the main international legal players, Wallace advances a "popular international law" where ordinary people are considered important legal actors in their own right alongside the usual focus on elites. Far from powerless or unwitting, publics possess both the cognitive and material capacities to understand and contribute to the intricacies of international legal rules. Combining rigorous theorizing with wide-ranging evidence, International Law and the Public is an account of an international legal politics from below, taking seriously the place of ordinary people in international affairs.

Václav Havel - un potente senza potere nel XX secolo - Martin Vopěnka, Eva Bartošová

Questa biografia non racconta solo la vita di Václav Havel e la sua eredita di pensiero, ma anche la storia dell'Europa centrale del XX secolo. Rappresenta inoltre una base essenziale che ogni europeo potrebbe e dovrebbe conoscere. La vita di Václav Havel ebbe inizio sullo sfondo di avvenimenti storici come la Seconda Guerra Mondiale o la realizzazione della cortina di ferro. E poi divento lui stesso motore della Storia. Fu piu potente nel ruolo di Presidente che lottava inutilmente per una dimensione piu umana della politica o come prigioniero che lottava contro il regime comunista secondo la propria coscienza? Alla luce delle pressanti minacce odierne, e sempre piu evidente che la politica europea degli ultimi decenni non ha avuto una personalita di maggior spessore. Martin Vopěnka e un esperto scrittore di libri per bambini, adolescenti e adulti. Qui dimostra, una volta ancora, la capacita di scegliere le informazioni e di cogliere il contesto. Nel contempo, non nasconde il fatto che la "questione Havel” e per lui un tema molto personale. La via che accompagna alla comprensione dell'epoca, di Havel e della storia e impreziosita dalle incisive immagini di Eva Bartošová.

Mucky Boots - Kevin McCabe

Mucky Boots is the warts-and-all story of Kevin McCabe''s two decades as Sheffield United''s owner-chairman. McCabe grew up yards from Bramall Lane, where he watched Sheffield United FC and Yorkshire County Cricket Club play. He left school aged 16 and worked on a building site, where a few words of encouragement set him on a path to creating a billion-pound global property empire. McCabe''s Sheffield United takeover was driven by his quest to beat local rivals, Sheffield Wednesday, and establish the Blades in the Premier League. Along the way, he took on the football establishment. With his hopes floundering in the midst of a rancorous dispute with then co-owner Prince Abdullah, a chance encounter led to McCabe''s appointment of Chris Wilder as Blades manager in 2016. In an ironic twist, as the Blades headed back to the Premier League, McCabe and Wilder unwittingly contributed to each other''s downfall and departure from the club they adored.

Nejvýznamnější americký film od Bonnie a Clyde." Presbyterian Church, malé hornické městečko na americkém severozápadě, je na počátku minulého století dokonalým místem, kde mohou hazardní hráč John Q. McCabe a bordelmamá Constance Millerová provozovat svou živnost. Báječně originální McCabe a paní Millerová, který natočil Robert Altman s Warrenem Beattym a Julií Christie (za svou roli byla v roce 1971 nominována na Cenu Akademie") v hlavních rolích, staví mytologii starého Západu na hlavu. Film se natáčel v překrásné divočině Vancouveru a zachycuje podstatu dávno uplynulých časů v kombinaci s moderní citovostí, kterou Altman vnesl i do ostatních svým mistrovských snímků ze 70 let: MASH a Nashville. Okouzlující výsledek je, jak napsala kritička Pauline Kael, "moderní klasikou."Bonusy:- Komentář režiséra Roberta Altmana a producenta Davida Fostera- Dokument ze zákulisí

The Revolt of The Public - Martin Gurri

How insurgencies—enabled by digital devices and a vast information sphere—have mobilized millions of ordinary people around the world.In the words of economist and scholar Arnold Kling, Martin Gurri saw it coming. Technology has categorically reversed the information balance of power between the public and the elites who manage the great hierarchical institutions of the industrial age: government, political parties, the media. The Revolt of the Public tells the story of how insurgencies, enabled by digital devices and a vast information sphere, have mobilized millions of ordinary people around the world.Originally published in 2014, The Revolt of the Public is now available in an updated edition, which includes an extensive analysis of Donald Trump’s improbable rise to the presidency and the electoral triumphs of Brexit. The book concludes with a speculative look forward, pondering whether the current elite class can bring about a reformation of the democratic process and whether new organizing principles, adapted to a digital world, can arise out of the present political turbulence.

Krvavý poledník - Cormac McCarthy - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Cormac McCarthy vydal svůj pátý román, Krvavý poledník aneb Večerní červánky na západe, v roce 1985, a přestože byly kritické recenze víceméně příznivé, většinu hodnotitelů zarazila nebývalá míra násilí a pozoruhodná absence morálních zásad. Z komerčního hlediska nebyla kniha příliš úspěšná a trvalo několik dalších let, než byla čtenáři opravdu doceněna. Dnes je už pravidelně ražena mezi nejdůležitější americké romány dvacátého století. Dej se odehrává v letech 1849-1850 na americko-mexickém pomezí, kde Glantonova tlupa nájemných zabijáku loví pro mexickou vládu indiánské skalpy. V tlupě se objevuje mnoho historicky doložených postav, ale též smyšlený a bezejmenný šestnáctiletý kluk, protagonista celého příběhu. Nade všemi se však tyčí tajuplný soudce Holden, jenž právem aspiruje na nejzlověstnější postavu americké literatury vůbec. Krvavý poledník je syrovou výpravou do historického mezidobí, které na Západe zavládlo po americko-mexické válce a kdy platil pouze zákon silnějšího, zákon rychlejší ruky a zákon většího kalibru. V nachově masitých barvách, za libozvučného křupání chrupavek a s nasládlou pachutí krve se zde v celé své grotesknosti vyjevuje pravá podstata lidství – ovládá nás krutost, násilí, válka. CORMAC McCARTHY se narodil roku 1933 v Providence ve státě Rhode Island. Navštevoval University of Tennessee, během studií začal psát a publikovat a univerzitu nedokončil. ...

The Road - Cormac McCarthy

The story of a nameless father and son trying to survive with their humanity intact in a postapocalyptic wasteland where Earth’s natural resources have been diminished, and some survivors are left to raise others for meat, The Road is one of Cormac McCarthy’s bleakest and most prescient novels. Dedicated to his son, John Francis McCarthy, McCarthy’s The Road is one of his most personal novels.Ranked 17th on The Guardian’s 100 Best Novels of the 21st century, it was the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for literature, and the James Tait Black Memorial Award, the Believer Award, and it was nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award. This first official graphic novel adaptation of McCarthy’s work is illustrated by acclaimed French cartoonist Manu Larcenet, who ably transforms the world depicted by McCarthy’s spare and brutal prose into stark ink drawings that add an additional layer to this haunting tale of family love and human perseverance. Cormac McCarthy personally approved the making of this book before his death, and the adaptation bears the approval of the McCarthy estate.
