Aziz Z. Huq shows how the rule of law can still be used as an important tool for framing and evaluating the goals and functions of a legal system. He traces the idea's historical origins from ancient Greece to the constitutional theorist Albert Venn Dicey to the economist and political philosopher Friedrich Hayek. And he explores how that value is coming under pressure from terrorist threats, macroeconomic crisis, pandemics, autocratic populism, and climate change.

Here is a gripping account of the major postwar trial of the Nazi hierarchy in World War II. The Nuremberg Trial brilliantly recreates the trial proceedings and offers a reasoned, often profound examination of the processes that created international law.

It was Alexis de Tocqueville who, when he visited the new republic for the first time, said that America was a unique country when it comes to law. Every great issue eventually comes before the courts. With this in mind, esteemed professor and civil liberties lawyer Alan Dershowitz looks at history through the prism of the trial, which presents a snapshot of what's going on in a particular point in time of the nation's history.

Through compelling case studies, including those of Starbucks, Coca-Cola, Sony, Amazon, and Google Books, Vaidhyanathan shows that the modern intellectual property systems reflect three centuries of changes in politics, economics, technologies, and social values.

Specifically, the Apology of Socrates is a defence against the charges of "corrupting the young" and "not believing in the gods which the city believes in, but in other gods which are unknown" to Athens. The Apology of Socrates is the dialogue that depicts the trial, written by Plato who details the final days of the philosopher Socrates.

»Denn das Genie ist ein Meteor, dazu bestimmt zu verbrennen, um sein Jahrhundert zu erleuchten.«

So beschrieb ein junger, noch gänzlich unbekannter französischer Leutnant namens Napoleon Buonaparte im Jahre 1791 in einem moralphilosophischen Essay die Rolle Alexanders des Großen. Er dürfte kaum geahnt haben, dass er damit eine Selbstbeschreibung seines Lebens gab, wie sie treffender kein Historiker je hätte formulieren können. Kometengleich ging sein Stern auf – und ebenso rasch verglühte er.
