Unjustified Enrichmentby David Johnston; Reinhard Zimmermann
Cambridge University Press 2002; US$ 72.00Unjustified enrichment is an intellectually vital area of private law. This book analyses a range of key issues in a comparative context, considered both by a representative of a common-law and of a civil-law system, illuminating similarities or differences between systems, and what different systems can learn from each other. more...
Understanding Unjust Enrichmentby Jason Neyers; Mitchell McInnes; Stephen Pitel
Hart 2004; US$ 132.00This book is a collection of articles based on Understanding Unjust Enrichment, a symposium held at the University of Western Ontario in January 2003. Articles written from the perspective of English, Australian, Canadian, German and Jewish law, deal with numerous theoretical and practical issues surrounding restitution. more...
The Defence of Passing Onby Michael Rush
Hart 2006; US$ 151.20The identity and existence of a loss-based defence in the law of unjust enrichment is disputed. Widely known as 'passing on', but better identified as 'disimpoverishment', this defence has generated confusion and disagreement across and within England, Australia, Canada and the United States of America. This book seeks to address these problems in three ways. First, by providing a solution to the defence's terminological problems and presenting a coherent picture of the current state of the law. Secondly, by examining whether a defendant's unjust enrichment can be said to have come 'at the expense of' a claimant when a third party has borne the cost of that enrichment. Put another way, whether awards of restitution are, or should be, restricted... more...
Housing and Property Restitution Rights of Refugees and Displaced Personsby Scott Leckie
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 147.00This book contains 240 laws and other regulations recognizing the property rights of refugees and displaced persons at the international, regional, and national levels. more...
The Foundations of Restitution for Wrongsby Francesco Giglio
Hart 2007; US$ 132.00'Restitution for wrongs', or 'restitutionary damages', is the judicial award which compels the wrongdoer to give up to the victim the benefit obtained through the perpetration of the wrong, independently of any loss suffered by the victim. The establishment of a civil trial in Roman law, which left compensation as the main response, and a widespread, loss-centred interpretation of the Aristotelian theory of corrective justice explain, but do not justify the difficulties encountered by modern attempts to account for restitutionary damages. Mistakes in the classification of this institution have complicated the picture. To overcome some of these problems, this study considers the basic structure of restitutionary damages from... more...
Structure and Justification in Private Lawby Charles Rickett; Ross Grantham
Hart 2008; US$ 187.20Peter Birks's tragically early death, and his immense influence around the world, led immediately to the call for a volume of essays in his honour by scholars who had known him as a colleague, teacher and friend. One such volume, published in 2006, contained essays largely from scholars working in England (Mapping the Law: Essays in Memory of Peter Birks, edited by Andrew Burrows and Lord Rodger). This volume contains the essays of those outside England who chose to honour Peter, and appears later than the English volume, reflecting the far flung habitations of its authors. The essays contained in this volume are focussed around the law of unjust enrichment, but are not narrowly preoccupied - instead they move freely from unjust enrichment... more...
Unjust Enrichment and Contractby Tariq A Baloch
Hart 2009; US$ 112.80Examines the role of unjust enrichment in the contractual context, defined as contracts which are terminated for breach, or subsisting, or unenforceable. This book identifies two types of contracts, namely those which are apportioned and those which are unapportioned. more...
Asylsuchende und Migranten auf Seeby Sicco Rah
Springer 2009; US$ 149.00Migrationsbewegungen auf dem Seeweg stellen die von der Einwanderung betroffenen Küstenstaaten und die zur Seenotrettung verpflichtete Handelsschifffahrt vor gro�e Schwierigkeiten.

Diese Arbeit bietet eine umfassende Untersuchung der Thematik aus völkerrechtlicher Sicht. Zum einen werden die Instrumente des internationalen Rechts analysiert, die der Kontrolle der Einwanderung und der Bekämpfung des Menschenschmuggels dienen. Zum anderen zeigt die Arbeit die Grenzen dieser Eingriffsrechte und weitergehende staatliche Verpflichtungen insbesondere aus dem See- und Flüchtlingsrecht... more...

The Change of Position Defenceby Elise Bant
Hart 2009; US$ 148.80This book defines and explains the operation of the defence of change of position in Anglo-Australian law. It is a widely accepted view that the defence is a modern development, the first express recognition of which can be traced in England to the seminal decision of the House of Lords in Lipkin Gorman (a firm) v Karpnale Ltd. Commentators have accordingly tended to focus on post-Lipkin case law in discussing the defence and its many disputed features. This work takes a different stance, arguing that the defence is best understood by placing it within its broader historical and legal context. It explains that the foundations of the defence can be found in the related doctrines of estoppel by representation, the agent's defence of payment... more...
