Larry
May. Global justice and due process. Cambridge University Press, 2011. K3251.M39
2011 In
this book the author makes a case for the extension of due process of law to
international law. Focusing on the procedural rights deriving from
Magna Carta, such as the rights of habeas corpus and nonrefoulement, he
examines the legal rights of detainees, whether at Guantanamo or in refugee
camps. He offers a conceptual and normative account of due process
within a general system of global justice, and argues that due process should
be recognized as jus cogens, as universally binding in international law. |

Kevin
W. Saunders. Degradation : what the history of obscenity tells us about
hate speech. New York University Press, c2011. K5210.S28
2011 The
book studies the relationship between obscenity and hate speech. The
author traces the legal trajectory of degradation as it moved from sexual
depiction to hateful speech. Looking closely at hate speech in several
arenas, including racist, homophobic, and sexist speech in the workplace,
classroom, and other real-life scenarios, he posits that if hate speech is
today’s conceptual equivalent of obscenity, then the body of law that
dictated obscenity might shed some much-needed light on what may or may not
qualify as punishable hate speech. |
