Joseph
A. Conti. Between law and diplomacy : the social contexts of disputing at
the World Trade Organization. Stanford University Press, 2010. K4610.C66
2010 This book details how trade has become increasingly
legalized and the implications of that for power relations between rich and
poor countries. The author looks closely at who uses the system to initiate
and pursue disputes, who settles and on what terms, and the relative
disconnect between pursuing a dispute and what a country gains through
efforts to gain compliance with WTO dictates. |

Greg
Lastowka. Virtual justice : the new laws of online worlds. Yale
University Press, c2010. K564.C6L374
2010 This
book illustrates the real legal dilemmas posed by virtual worlds.
Presenting the most recent lawsuits and controversies, it explains how
governments are responding to the chaos on the cyberspace frontier. After an
engaging overview of the history and business models of today's virtual
worlds, the author explores how laws of property, jurisdiction, crime, and
copyright are being adapted to pave the path of virtual law. |
