Good Policing : Trust, Legitimacy and Authority
Renowned criminologist Mike Hough illuminates the principles and practices of good policing in this important analysis of the police service’s legitimacy and the factors, such as public trust, that drive it. As concern grows at the growth in crimes of serious violence, he challenges conventional political and public thinking on crime and scrutinises strategies and tactics like deterrence and stop-and-search.Contrasting ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ approaches to policing and punishment, he offers a fresh perspective that stresses the importance of securing normative compliance. For officers, students, policy makers and anyone who has an interest in the police force, this is a valuable roadmap for ethical policing.

Authority and Legitimacy of Environmental Post-Treaty Rules
In the international law of the 21st century, more and more regulation comes in the form of post-treaty rules.Developed in environmental law, this trend increasingly spreads to areas ranging from tobacco regulation to arms trade.This book offers the first systematic examination of these decisions, resolutions and recommendations adopted by treaty bodies, to assess their effectiveness.The study shows that the authority of such rules is in question as, in practice, treaty parties retain almost complete discretion when it comes to their implementation.This conclusion gives rise to two key questions. To what extent does this ambiguous authority affect adherence to procedural principles like legal certainty, non-arbitrariness and the duty to state reasons? And can the legitimacy of the process and content of post-treaty rules fill the gaps in their authority?In assessing these questions, the study shines a light on this crucial but neglected area in international law scholarship and forms a starting point for improvements and reform.

The Legitimacy and Responsiveness of Industry Rule-making
Rule-making is no longer an activity undertaken exclusively by public actors.Private actors are increasingly allowed by legislatures and regulatory bodies to take part in (and in some cases assume responsibility for) the formation of legally binding rules, for example in the US, UK, Australia and the EU.Departing from traditional forms of rule-making by involving private actors may enhance the ability of regulatory systems to achieve social goals, as regulatory scholars argue.However, because private actors are permitted to act in their own best interests, their involvement also raises doubts about the legitimacy of the underlying rule-making processes and the rules that are formulated.The principal aim of this book is to highlight that the tension between the responsiveness that leading international regulatory scholars advocate in order to improve regulatory effectiveness, and the law and its formal, substantive, procedural and institutional values, is not as great as may first appear.Drawing on three in-depth case studies of the experience of the Australian telecommunications industry with self-regulatory rule-making – a form of rule-making that bears the hallmarks of ‘responsive regulation’, ‘democratic experimentalism’, ‘smart regulation’ and other strategies of proceduralization – it is argued that industry rule-making can, as a matter of practice, be responsive and legitimate at the same time.In doing so, the book formulates and applies criteria against which industry rule-making should be evaluated and identifies a number of indicia that point to when industry rule-making is likely to be simultaneously legitimate and responsive.

How can the legitimacy of jihad be compared to the legitimacy of Urban II's crusade?
The legitimacy of jihad and Urban II's crusade can be compared in terms of their religious justifications and historical contexts. Both were seen as legitimate by their respective religious communities, with jihad being justified within Islamic teachings and the crusade being sanctioned by the Catholic Church. Additionally, both were seen as defensive actions by their proponents, with jihad being seen as a struggle to defend Islam and the crusade being seen as a response to the perceived threat of Muslim expansion in the Holy Land. However, the legitimacy of both has been questioned by modern scholars and historians, who have critiqued the violence and religious intolerance associated with both concepts.

What is a formal legitimacy error?

What are the grounds for legitimacy?
The grounds for legitimacy can vary depending on the context, but generally, legitimacy is based on the acceptance and recognition of authority by the people or relevant stakeholders. Legitimacy can be derived from legal frameworks, such as constitutions or laws, which establish the authority of a government or institution. It can also be based on historical or traditional norms, where authority is accepted due to longstanding customs or cultural practices. Additionally, legitimacy can be derived from the consent of the governed, where the people willingly accept the authority of a government or institution through democratic processes or social contracts.

Leadership and Strategic Management : Decision-Making in Times of Change
Managers are facing unprecedented complexity, volatility, and ambiguity, quickly adapting their decision-making, leadership, vision, and strategies.Megatrends and forces of change have profound implications for business models, processes, and organizational structures, calling into question current paradigms and designing future change.Additionally, unprecedented disruptions, unforecastable in their nature, have increased the need for resilience and strategic flexibility. The book aims at tackling the potential interrelations among environmental transformations, strategic decisions, and leadership to better understand the role of external and internal factors on the effectiveness of managers.The book defines “change”: its extent, nature, and characteristics.Then, it focuses on decision-making, the role of potential cognitive biases, and how the interaction with the perception of determined environmental events affects the way in which decision-makers decide to implement specific strategies.Finally, in the light of waves of strategic change, it reviews theories on leadership and transformation by looking at the role and traits of leaders. Since environmental transformations have the potential to “disrupt” not only strategies but also decision-making processes and leadership, the book provides a review on the issue and propose an integrative framework which can be useful for both scholars and managers, especially in the fields of decision-making and strategy.

Sovereign Excess, Legitimacy and Resistance
When talking about his film Salò, Pasolini claimed that nothing is more anarchic than power, because power does whatever it wants, and what power wants is totally arbitrary. And yet, upon examining the murderous capital of modern sovereignty, the fragility emerges of a power whose existence depends on its victims’ recognition.Like a prayer from God, the command implores to be loved, also by those whom it puts to death.Benefitting from this "political theurgy" as the book calls it (the idea that a power, like God, claiming to be full of glory, constantly needs to be glorified) is Barnardine, the Bohemian murderer in Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure, as he, called upon by power to the gallows, answers with a curse: ‘a pox o’ your throats’.He does not want to die, nor, indeed, will he. And so, he becomes sovereign. On a level with and against the State.

Diversity Judgments : Democratizing Judicial Legitimacy
The US Supreme Court's legitimacy-its diminishing integrity and contribution to the good of society-is being questioned today like no other time in recent memory.Criticisms reflect the perspectives of both 'insiders' (straight white males) and 'outsiders' (mainly people of color, women, and the LGBTQ community).Neither perspective digs deep enough to get at the root of the Court's legitimacy problem, which is one of process.The Court's process of decision-making is antiquated and out of sync with a society that looks and thinks nothing like the America of the eighteenth century, when the process was first implemented.The current process marginalizes many Americans who have a right to feel disenfranchised.Leading scholar of jurisprudence Roy L. Brooks demonstrates how the Court can modernize and democratize its deliberative process, to be more inclusive of the values and life experiences of Americans who are not straight white males.

What is the legitimacy of a contract?
The legitimacy of a contract refers to whether the contract is legally binding and enforceable. For a contract to be considered legitimate, it must meet certain criteria such as mutual agreement, offer and acceptance, consideration, capacity of the parties to enter into the contract, and legality of the subject matter. If any of these elements are missing or if the contract was entered into under duress, fraud, or coercion, it may be deemed illegitimate and unenforceable in a court of law. Ultimately, the legitimacy of a contract is essential for ensuring that parties are held accountable for their obligations and that their rights are protected.
