Health Law as Private Law delves into the complex relationship between private law and health care. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of public ordering and state-created rules was evident, yet this work reveals the equally important role of private agreements in shaping health care policy. The volume's five sections - theory and structure, reproductive care, costs and financing, innovation and institutions, contracts and torts - include innovative conceptualizations and approaches to applying private law to health law. Chapters authored by leading experts explore how private law can be utilized to address significant health care and public health problems, and to achieve much-needed health care reform. Comprehensive and timely, Health Law as Private Law opens new pathways that will influence future policy, jurisprudence, and regulation. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

With two-thirds of the global population online, brand protection is no longer just an option for corporations.Patterns in Brand Monitoring considers the ways in which a scientific approach can be applied to the analysis of brand protection data, essential for filtering and prioritizing the results and yielding insights into trends and patterns in infringement activity. Throughout the book, technical definitions and formulations of key ideas are presented in information boxes and are illustrated by the use of real case studies. The book is of relevance to stakeholders responsible for brand protection, intellectual property management, marketing or digital services in any organization, and to anyone with a general interest in the industry. It illustrates how an effective analysis approach can build efficiencies into a brand protection program, provide guidance on areas of focus, and demonstrate return on investment.

This volume addresses the important, but under-noticed, question of the impact of state size and scale for constitutional law and governance, and brings together leading global scholars to focus on the lessons from a range of small states and jurisdictions in this context.Often, the best way to understand the effect of scale is to examine states where scale is demonstrably lacking. Doing so allows a form of "reflective" comparison that provides greater insight and clarity into the significance of state size, and constitutional scale, as a factor affecting a range of democratic constitutional outcomes. The volume also explicitly invites critical reflection on, and problematisation of, the issues of line-drawing and boundary definition around notions of state and jurisdictional size.The collection features contributions by scholars from a wide range of jurisdictions, living and working across the Global South and North, and includes attention to the constitutional experiences of small states and jurisdictions in Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, the Caribbean and Oceania that have not received much coverage in the literature. As such, it makes a meaningful contribution to regionally-focused constitutional debates. This is especially significant in the Caribbean and Oceania, where a large percentage of states are small states, and there is only a limited body of constitutional scholarship focusing on the constitutional experiences of such jurisdictions. More generally, this volume will be of interest to audiences working in and interested in small states generally, as well as a broader comparative audience interested in issues of scale in constitutional design and implementation.
