Subject: ODG: Life and Death in Private Law
Dear
Colleagues:
Congratulations
go out to ODGers Kate Falconer, Kit Barker and Andrew Fell on their
recent publication with Hart:
Edited by Kate Falconer, Kit
Barker and Andrew Fell
Private law regulates life; this is self-evident, but how does it
regulate death? This edited collection explores this question.
Life and death are the beginning and end of the legal person: the
instigator and terminator of rights, interests and obligations. They are also
the nominal separator of particular fields of law (medical law from succession
law, for example). As such they act as fault lines that can test the limit of
private law principles and norms. This book explores what life and death tell
us about private law and what private law can tell us about the meaning and
value of life and death.
Kate Falconer is Lecturer at the School of Law and Radical
Humanities Laboratory, University College Cork, Ireland.
Kit Barker is Fellow of the Australian Academy of Law and
Current Director
of the Australian Centre of Private Law at the TC Beirne School of Law,
Australia.
Andrew Fell is Lecturer at the TC Beirne School of Law, University
of Queensland, Australia.
