Subject: ODG: Politics, Policy and Private Law: Volume I
Dear Colleagues:
Congratulations go out to Sarah
Worthington, Janet O'Sullivan, Amy Goymour and Jodi Gardner on the publication
of their edited collection Politics, Policy and Private Law: Volume I (https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/politics-policy-and-private-law-9781509960989/)
with Hart.
From the description:
The majority of existing literature diminishes the impact of policy in
the development of legal principles, impeding a deeper understanding of it.
Part of a two-part study, this first volume explores tort law, property law and
equity. Both studies engage with modern challenges and technical developments
that now inform private law, with chapters looking at the Grenfell disaster,
compensation of medical injuries post COVID-19, the gig economy and
co-ownership. They also explore traditional private law areas through a novel
lens, such as psychological injury and the impact of fairness and/or equality
obligations. They highlight the similarities and differences across many
aspects of private law, allowing for a richer analysis across all the strands
of private law.
Happy Reading,
Jason Neyers
