  1. Land law and urban policy in context : essays on the contributions of Patrick McAuslan

    Zartaloudis, Thanos
    Abingdon, Oxon ; New York : Birkbeck Law Press, 2017.

    This book is a collection of essays honouring and engaging with the work of the late Professor Patrick McAuslan. It is a collection that narrates, analyses and critiques McAuslan's contributions, as well as offering substantive perspectives on how his work has impacted the legal fields in which he was involved: including those of land law, urban planning law and policy, land use and participation of developing countries, democratic constitutionalism, and legal education. The essays present McAuslan's contributions in the contexts in which they emerged, and according to both the circumstances and motivations that shaped them, as well as the challenges they encountered. It thus provides an ideal point of engagement for scholars, students and policy makers that have already interacted with McAuslan's ideas and work, or who have yet to do so.--Back cover.This book is a collection of essays honouring and engaging with the work of the late Professor Patrick McAuslan.

  3. Giorgio Agamben : power, law and the uses of criticism

    Zartaloudis, Thanos
    Abingdon, Oxon [England] ; New York : Routledge, 2010.

    Giorgio Agamben: Power, Law and the Uses of Criticism is a thorough engagement with the thought of the influential Italian philosopher Giorgio Agamben. It explores Agamben's work on language, ontology, power, law and criticism from the 1970s to his most recent publications. Introducing Agamben's work to a readership in legal theory, as well as in the humanities and social sciences more generally, Thanos Zartaloudis argues that an adequate understanding of Agamben's Homo Sacer project requires an attention to his earlier philosophical writings on language, ontology, power and time. It is through this attentive and creative analysis of Agamben's work that Zartaloudis here presents a rethinking of the ideas of justice and criticism.
