  • Visiting Scholars: Further Information Updated October 2017
    1 Visiting Scholars: Further information Updated October 2017 Introduction Durham Law School welcomes applications to its Visiting Scholars Programme. The School is widely- acknowledged to be one of the leading Law Schools in the UK and is a recognised centre of international excellence in legal scholarship and research. It has particular research strengths in the following areas: human rights; commercial law; criminal law and justice; European Union law; gender and legal theory; medical law and bioethics as supported by the numerous research centres and groups. Visiting Scholars will be based at Durham for a period from a week to a year. We give preference to applications for visits of up to three months, though we will consider applications for longer stays in order to allow Scholars to engage in research with academics working in related fields. Scholars are expected to pursue a specific research project while within the School and both to deliver and participate in research seminars. The School does not provide financial support for travel, accommodation or subsistence. Scholars are responsible for ensuring that they have the correct travel documentation, including visas. Admissions Because of the large number of applications we receive each year, Durham Law School is unable to accommodate all those who express interest in visiting for research purposes. Prospective visiting scholars must identify a possible sponsor in his / her area of research and contact them prior to submitting an application to be a visiting scholar at the Law School. Once that sponsor has been identified, applications should ask the sponsor for a brief statement of support.

  • Developing a Relational Law of Contracts: Striking a Balance Between Abstraction and Contextualism
    Legal Studies (2021), 41, 177–193 doi:10.1017/lst.2020.23 RESEARCH ARTICLE Developing a relational law of contracts: striking a balance between abstraction and contextualism Zoe Gounari*† Durham Law School, Durham University, Durham, UK *Author email: [email protected] (Accepted 20 May 2020) Abstract Relational contract theory holds that the interpretation of a contract must take full account of the context and surrounding circumstances of the parties’ bargain so as to give effect to their respective intentions. This paper argues that if a relational treatment of contracts is to be institutionalised, in the sense of being utilised in a contract dispute to determine and give effect to the parties’ intentions, then it must operate at an abstract level. That is to say, rather than using relevant context to determine what the actual parties intended in the circumstances at hand, the contextualist enquiry should ascertain the relevant con- text by reference to what the parties would have agreed to in the circumstances, had they properly reflected on what their self-interest requires. I discuss the merits of this proposition by reference to a number of appellate judgments, which already endorse contextualism as a response to contractual ambiguity, and I ultimately apply it to the Supreme Court’s judgment in Rainy Sky SA v Kookmin Bank. Keywords: relational contracts; contract theory; contract interpretation Introduction The ‘relational contract’ recently became the basis for controversy in English contract law, when Lord Leggatt, sitting at first instance, relied on this concept to justify implying a duty of good faith into an oral contract between two highly sophisticated parties.1 The contract concerned a joint venture formed between an investor and an hotelier for the purpose of buying and developing a number of luxury hotels in Greece.

  • Sources for the Study of Local History
    Durham County Record Office County Hall Durham DH1 5UL Telephone 03000 267619 e-mail: [email protected] website: www.durhamrecordoffice.org.uk SUBJECT GUIDE 2 : SOURCES FOR THE STUDY OF LOCAL HISTORY Issue 8 March 2012 This leaflet describes some of the resources available for the study of local history in the Durham County Record Office, and it is geared specifically to County Durham's history and historical materials. Durham's history and records are, in many ways, unlike those of most English counties. The most obvious distinctive feature of its history is that, until 1836, the Prince Bishop exercised powers in the County Palatine much greater than those of the authorities in other counties. Another feature of County Durham's history which should be taken into account is the influence wielded by the Dean and Chapter of Durham through its extensive ownership of land and consequent participation in the development of the coal industry. The third significant characteristic of Durham's history is the rise and decline of the coalfield itself. These three features of the history of the county have also meant that the bodies responsible for the preservation of its records are unusually diverse: the records of the Palatinate are in London at The National Archives, those of the Bishopric and Dean and Chapter are cared for by the Archives and Special Collections Section of the University of Durham Library and the Durham County Record Office holds other local records. It is intended in this leaflet to describe only those records held in the County Record Office which are relevant to the study of the most usually researched topics.

That change has been referred to as a humanisation of international law. This thesis contributes to that area of study by offering an account of the deep level changes to the foundations of the international legal system, which it argues are both driving and are recursively driven by changes in substantive international law. It finds the explanation for these changes in the idea of the self-determination of the individual, and it argues that this concept has now become a structural principle (a term borrowed from Giddens, 1984) of the international legal system.

  • Working Paper 2 2016
    Neo-FEDERALISM Working Paper Series 02/2016 Speaking the State: Collective Personality, Legal Subjecthood and the Creation of States in International Law Tom Sparks Abstract States, their nature, and their creation, have rightly been the subjects of much study in recent years. States are the primary actors of the international legal system, and are its authors. In their system-compliant, system-constitutive and extra-legal actions they exercise immense power, with the ability vastly to change the conditions of life for individuals both within and outside their territories. Questions surrounding whether entities of various kinds qualify as “States” include some of international law’s bitterest disputes – such as the status of Kosovo, Nagorno-Karabakh, and SADR – as well as some of its most intriguing questions – such as the correct status to be accorded to the European Union, multinational corporations, and “failed States”. Yet it is far from clear that States, as collective entities, are truly capable of exercising legal personality at all. This article will focus on the question of whether States are capable of exercising international personhood for the purposes of subjecthood. In the course of answering that question a secondary question will also be explored: how States are created. Insight into these questions can be gained from sociology and linguistics. States, it is argued, are social constructions, created in their social reality by declarations – linguistic acts with a double (world-word and word-world) direction of fit. As such, it is argued that the creation of plenary statehood is regulated primarily by language rules, rather than legal norms.

  • Parish Paper September 2020
    All Saints Parish Paper 7, MARGARET STREET, LONDON W1W 8JG asms.uk SEPTEMBER 2020 £1.00 THE ASSIstant PRIEST WRITES: In September we keep another feast of Our Lady, a later addition to the Calendar than the Assumption, but no less significant: Mary’s Nativity, celebrated on 8 September. Mary always points away from herself and towards her Son. Her significance is rightly tied to her son’s immeasurably greater significance and we sense that, like John the Baptist, she would happily declare, ‘He must increase and I must decrease’. So we honour Mary, the Mother of God, with an eye on her horizon. We look beyond her to her Son, to the Light of the World. But this is only part of the story. Saint Augustine of Hippo, who died in the year 430, wrote: The Church observes the birth of John [the Baptist] as a holy day; and none of the other great ones of old is solemnly commemorated in this way. We celebrate The Lady Altar John’s birth, as we celebrate Christ’s. Photograph: Andrew Prior (Sermon 293: 1 – 3) feast originated in Jerusalem, during the Augustine is reminding his listeners that 400s; it was celebrated in Constantinople by it was the customary practice for a saint to the year 500 and then, finally, in Rome by be remembered, not on the date on which the seventh century. he or she began his life in this world, but on the date on which the saint began life in Beginning to celebrate the Nativity of heaven. Therefore, the saint’s real birthday, Mary was a turning point in Christian the true dies natalis, is the day of their death.
