This article makes the doctrinal and normative case for the latter option. We scrutinise three limitations in the jurisprudence: first, the Court's individualised approach to electoral falsehoods under P1-3, at the expense of the <i>electorate's</i> rights as informed democratic participants; second, the focus on <i>reactive</i> positive obligations to combat electoral disinformation, rather than proactive measures to ensure the free expression of voter choice; and finally, the lack of clarity about how the rights to free elections and to freedom of expression should be read harmoniously where they conflict.</p>","PeriodicalId":47225,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Journal of Legal Studies","volume":"45 4","pages":"980-1010"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12688649/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145726194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Catherine expressed, I think, an important insight, that is true of the law as well: the law writes on the susceptible skins of living beings. This does not mean, of course, that we should not philosophise about the law, or that we should not take advantage of the benefits of having patient paper to write on. But as we do so, we should philosophise about the law all the time fully realising that the law itself does not write on patient paper, but on the susceptible skins of living beings. This has important implications to how we should-and how we should not-do philosophy of law.

A familiar potential remedy for the problem is 'affirmative action', in the sense of preferential treatment for job candidates who lacked a fair opportunity to develop their job qualifications. I defend two analogous contentions about criminal justice. Even if criminal sentencing is formally fair-ie free of discrimination and bias-it may still be substantively unfair because some disadvantaged offenders have lacked a fair opportunity to develop their capacities and structure their choice environments to fortify themselves against resorting to crime. And the criminal justice system might implement a form of 'affirmative action in criminal justice' by mitigating the punishment of offenders who are culpable for crimes but lacked a fair opportunity to avoid becoming so.</p>","PeriodicalId":47225,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Journal of Legal Studies","volume":"45 3","pages":"702-726"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12395250/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144973661","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We draw on empirical studies of RoN laws to identify and examine the challenges of redeploying 'rights' and 'legal personality'-concepts associated with liberal normative frameworks-in the service of green normative theory and its fundamental concern for ecological well-being. We reject the dominant rights-based paradigm, which locates the green potential of RoN laws in constituting nature as a rights-bearing legal subject, and we propose an alternative: the governance paradigm. Our alternative locates the green potential of RoN laws in reconfiguring authority relations and supports ecocentric legal frameworks instead of RoN: emphasising ecocentric values and duties instead of rights, and ecological community membership instead of legal personhood.</p>","PeriodicalId":47225,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Journal of Legal Studies","volume":"45 4","pages":"839-871"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12688650/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145726591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While it ostensibly sought to ensure that decision-makers appropriately retain their decision-making discretion, and through that political accountability, it has developed into a permissive doctrine that facilitates significant delegation of decision-making within public administration. As algorithmic decision-making (ADM) is increasingly used in public decision-making, it is necessary to question whether it remains fit for the modern machinery of government of the 2020s and beyond. This article considers the limitations of the doctrine in the context of public ADM, considers the shift in doctrinal approach that would be needed to accommodate this emerging machinery and concludes that the doctrine faces serious challenges in accommodating ADM in public decision-making.</p>","PeriodicalId":47225,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Journal of Legal Studies","volume":"45 3","pages":"727-752"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12395227/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144973648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on a variety of evidence, including a survey of 200 retail investors, we suggest that, rather than protecting unsuspecting outside investors, such an arrangement enables insiders to profit at their expense. The ban on the more salient practice of traditional insider dealing regulation lulls outside investors into a false sense of security, thus effectively operating as a placebo, whilst insiders can still profit by engaging in shadow trading.

In their failure, however, each position does get something right.

At first, Weinrib appears to deny this, implying that corrective justice is merely 'regulative'-that it helps judges interpret private law in a way that is more coherent and just, without excluding any particular legal content. But a closer reading reveals that he accepts such limits: private law that violates the innate right of persons is non-authoritative.

Despite their important contribution, Bottoms and Liebling's procedural approach advances a precarious notion of legitimacy that depends too heavily on the fair treatment of inmates by prison guards and too little on methods of inmate participation that might help the institution align its values with those of prisoners, creating a more stable, and truly normative, commitment towards compliance.</p>","PeriodicalId":47225,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Journal of Legal Studies","volume":"45 3","pages":"801-820"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12395248/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144973595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This differs from classic concerns of judicial power, focusing on how legal challenges by project opponents-notwithstanding their doctrinal outcome-can produce delay and embed a chilling overcaution among industry and policy makers. Having articulated the litigant power critique alongside judicial power, the article explores judicial review's impacts on infrastructure delivery through a case study of the legal challenges to England's High-Speed 2 railway project. I argue this litigation presents little evidence of judicial overreach, but in some ways supports litigant power concerns.
