Across the globe and particularly in America, basic democratic tenets supposedly stand on principles of fairness and equity, but almost everything we've done and are doing rejects that these ideals are important to us. Instead, we consciously or subconsciously embrace a predilection and desire for preferential treatment for preferred people. Nowhere is our support of preference starker than in the way "racial haves" sustain their mistreatment of the "racial have-nots." It occurs in every facet of American life and is evident across the globe. This book examines a single area of our culture: housing in the US which operates against the backdrop of unrelenting segregation policies and practices in all facets of the industry. So vitriolic is the housing industry against people of color, particularly African Americans, that even sweeping legislation like the Fair Housing Act itself could not stamp out the offensive systemic actions within the housing industry. Acknowledging the depths of prejudice supported by centuries of falsehoods and malevolence, the author calls for transformational change in American culture to reach racial balance in housing and concomitant industries.

This book introduces readers to the concept of territory as it applies to law while demonstrating the particular work that territory does in organizing property relations.Territories can be found in all societies and at all scales, although they take different forms. The concern here is on the use of territories in organizing legal relations. Law, as a form of power, often works through a variety of territorial strategies, serving multiple legal functions, such as attempts at creating forms of desired behaviour. Landed property, in Western society, is often highly territorial, reliant on sharply policed borders and spatial exclusion. But rather than thinking of territory as obvious and given or as a natural phenomenon, this book focuses particularly on its relation to property to argue that territory is both a social product, and a specific technology that organizes social relations. That is: territory is not simply an outcome of property relations but a strategic means by which such relations are communicated, imagined, legitimized, enforced, naturalized and contested.Accessible to students, this book will be of interest to those working in the areas of sociolegal studies, geography, urban studies, and politics.

This volume brings together a collection of original investigations of the current thinking on three broad themes: the assetization of land and buildings, the relationship of land rent to valuation and speculation in the markets for private and public properties, and the different ways in which land functions as a social relation.

This book weaves an interpretive narrative of the statutes, case law and governance procedures that have helped shape the planning system of Northern Ireland with due regard being given to the combined influences emanating over time from European Union, UK and island of Ireland sources.

Local Planning Reviews in Scotland is the first book about the system for local planning appeals established by the Planning etc (Scotland) Act 2006. That Act provides that, where local planning decisions have been determined initially by an officer of the local authority, dissatisfied applicants have a right of appeal to a panel of local councillors - a local review body ('LRB'). Both before and after the new framework came into operation in 2009, there have been significant criticisms of the law underpinning it, and of the structure and operation of local planning reviews. This book sets out the genesis of the new system and provides a step-by-step guide through the process. Local Planning Reviews in Scotland: explains policy considerations and legislative background; describes potential pitfalls for those advising LRBs and applicants alike; outlines the review process; gives guidance on how to present and consider an application for planning permission; considers the human rights and other procedural issues; explores further avenues for redress open to an applicant. This is a practical and accessible guide for all those involved in planning decisions, including applicants for review and their agents; planning authorities; government officials; local government officers; solicitors; surveyors; architects; and planning consultants.

Like most lawyers, I have had others attach labels to me over the years, including: a. the baby faced assassin b. the lawyer to get when you don't want to deal with a lawyer c. the 'www' (why the wealthy win) guy The one that has meant the most to me was coined by a small business operator I helped guarantee she survived and ultimately prospered during a difficult start up phase. She called me 'The Dream Enabler'. This book shares many of the key learnings I have been fortunate to discover while having unprecedented access to some of Australia's most successful people.

Why is estate litigation different from other areas of court cases? Like family law, the parties usually know each other. Also like family law, emotions and memories play important - often dominant roles. Unlike family law, the parties are usually dealing with OPM - other people's money. Estate law is an off-shoot of the law of equity. Estate cases deal with trusts, either expressed or implied by law.Guardianships, powers of attorney, trustees, executors, all these situations involve people who act or are deemed to act on behalf of others. This creates conflicts of interest, self-dealing in place of integrity, suspicious circumstances.The law that governs these situations arises from before the times of Charles Dickens and Bleak House. The court practice tends to depart from the typical rules of civil procedure that govern torts and contract cases. Why? Because the parties are different than the courts encounter in typical civil cases.This handbook starts with a discussion of the practical differences between civil and estate litigation. Using a case study that arises all too often, the reader is guided through the stages of estate litigation. As with the other handbooks in the Advocacy Club Series, there are examples and practical techniques designed to show the civil litigator the best practices of the estates litigator.Although written for Canadian lawyers and using Canadian case law as examples, this handbook presents practical techniques that apply to lawyers in all common law jurisdictions.

She called me 'The Dream Enabler'. This book shares many of the key learnings I have been fortunate to discover while having unprecedented access to some of Australia's most successful people. As set out in the foreword to 'The Dream Enabler' book, for as long as I can remember, the obsessive study of great thinkers has been my favourite pastime. This Reference Guide is designed to be a companion to 'The Dream Enabler' book. It provides a framework to explore and achieve momentum in relation to each of the key concepts, leveraging the foundations explained in detail in 'The Dream Enabler'.

Kaspar Krolop untersucht Covenants bei unbesicherten Darlehen, Genussrechten und weiteren Formen hybriden Kapitals. Diese unter dem Begriff "Risikokapital auf schuldrechtlicher Grundlage" zusammengefassten Vertragsgestaltungen sind ein Anwendungsbeispiel für transnationales Private Ordering durch komplexe Verträge mit Organisationselementen. Ein Fokus der Arbeit liegt auf der rechtlichen Einordnung dieses Phänomens mit Folgerungen für die Abgrenzung von Vertrag und Verband unter Berücksichtigung der Implikationen für die Corporate Governance der zu finanzierenden Gesellschaft. Dabei spannt er den Bogen von vertragsrechtlichen Grundlagen und Erkenntnissen der Institutionenökonomik über gesellschafts-, kollisions- und europarechtliche Fragen bei der Verzahnung von deutschem Verbandsrecht mit ausländischem Recht unterliegenden Verträgen bis hin zu den konkreten Haftungsfragen im Vertrags-, Gesellschafts- und Insolvenzrecht. Der Autor entwickelt dabei ein international und interdisziplinär anschlussfähiges Einordnungsraster für schuldrechtliche Verträge mit Organisationselementen im Grenzbereich zwischen Austauschvertrag und Verband. Darüber hinaus bietet die Arbeit der Kautelarpraxis Orientierung im Hinblick auf die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der Gestaltungsfreiheit bei Finanzierungsinstrumenten auf schuldrechtlicher Grundlage sowie mit diesen einhergehenden Haftungsrisiken.

If you're considering apartment living, this book is for you.When I moved to an apartment I imagined I was gaining a low-maintenance home. I didn't realise I would swap cleaning my gutters and mowing the lawn for fighting a petty clique to fix the flooding in my garage and consulting lawyers to protect my privacy and reputation. I hope you'll find my story educational. In my view, Australia's body corporate system is broken. Our building committee, body corporate managers and complex managers all breached the Body Corporate Act many times, and the systems that should have allowed me to hold them to account were expensive, slow and ineffective. Buyer beware!

Es gehört zu den Charakteristika einer arbeitsteiligen Wirtschaftsordnung, dass Leistungen im Rahmen von Vertragsketten erbracht werden. Beispiele sind Absatzketten im Handel oder die Einschaltung von Subunternehmern durch einen Generalunternehmer. Verletzt in diesen Fällen ein Kettenglied eine Vertragspflicht, so tritt ein Schaden nicht selten erst bei einem entfernten Kettenglied ein. Die Praxis hat eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Lösungsansätze entwickelt. Vertraglicher und deliktischer Direktanspruch, Regresskette und Drittschadensliquidation sind die wichtigsten. Florian Bien unternimmt eine kohärente Zusammenschau der Probleme und stellt sie auf eine neue dogmatische Grundlage. Er versetzt die Glieder einer arbeitsteiligen Pflichtenkette so weit wie möglich in die Lage, Vertragsrisiken privatautonom zuzuweisen.
