Best Ebook The International Protection of AdultsFrom Oxford University Press
Increasing numbers of people have connections with one country, but live and work in another, frequently owning property or investments in several countries. People with lifelong or subsequently developed impairments of capacity move cross-border or have property or family interests or connections spread across different jurisdictions. This new work fills a gap in a specialist market for a detailed work advising lawyers on all the considerations in these situations. The book provides a clear, comprehensive, and unique overview of all relevant capacity and private international law issues, and the existing solutions in common law and civil law jurisdictions and under Hague Convention XXXV. It sets out the existing law of various important jurisdictions, including detailed chapters on the constituent parts of the UK, Ireland, Jersey, the Isle of Man and the Hague 35 states; and shorter chapters on 26 Non-Hague states and those within federal states, including coverage of the United States, several Australian and Canadian states, and a number of other Commonwealth jurisdictions. Containing a number of helpful case studies and flowcharts, the book draws upon the expertise of the editors in their respective fields, together with detailed contributions from expert practitioners and academics from each relevant jurisdiction.All the editors and many of the contributors and correspondents are members of STEP.

Review Compliments must go to the authors for the excellent organisation of the work and for the concise, functional and practical approach to what are often very dense and thorny issues. This is a book aimed at helping the practitioner, but it is also an enriching one because of its 360 approach to the fascinating topic of adult protection, including its historical legal origins. This specialised book will no doubt become a core reference work for trust and estate practitioners and fills a significant existing void in the subject area. Margaret O'Sullivan, Principal of O'Sullivan Estate Lawyers, Toronto As this is an expanding, as well as fascinating area of law, international lawyers, particularly those in private law, will no doubt regard this topical and timely book as an essential purchase.

Fascinating By Phillip Taylor MBE CROSS BORDER AND INTERNATIONAL ISSUES RELATING TO THE PROTECTION OF ADULTS: THE LEGAL LANDSCAPE ACROSS A WORLDWIDE RANGE OF JURISDICTIONSAn appreciation by Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green ChamberPublished recently by the Oxford University Press, ‘The International Protection of Adults’ contains a prodigious amount of research, comment and explanation primarily on the legal issues and implications surrounding intellectual disabilities suffered by adults, a subject area which, as the editors point out, crosses ‘all of the subject areas into which the law is traditionally divided.’Add to all this the international dimension and the phenomenon, at least in western countries, of an aging population which collectively has become increasingly more mobile. The result is an area of law in which intellectual disability (frequently caused by Alzheimer’s) has no respect for international boundaries and which has become all the more complex, diverse, far-reaching and certainly challenging to practitionersThe editors, two barristers and two solicitors, all experts in this field -- have therefore produced an important and useful work of reference which aims to bring order and clarity to the confusion and downright puzzlement created by the legal difficulties and uncertainties inherent in matters of intellectual disability in cross-border situations. To this end they have been ably assisted by a rather vast and impressive team of international contributors and correspondents from literally dozens of jurisdictions worldwide in an attempt, in their words ‘to assemble a global picture.’An important point is made here that this is not a book that deals with mental health law; rather it is specifically about intellectual disability. The editors are careful to mention that in modern legal systems, ‘intellectual disabilities and mental illness are treated separately.’ ‘This,’ they add, ‘is reflected in the scope of Hague 35’, analysed in detail in Part II of this book.Hague 35, to remind you, is The Hague Convention on the International Protection of Adults of 13th January 2000 which references -- and follows on from -- the Convention of 19th October 1996 on the Protection of Children. Hague 35 and an explanatory report by Professor Lagarde of the Sorbonne (who has also written the Foreword) are reproduced in the Appendix. As the editors point out, Hague 3 and the Lagarde Report are fundamental to an understanding of this subject.Within its more than 800 pages this volume provides an overview of this subject in Part I, prior to a detailed examination of Hague 35 in Part II. Part III presents discussions of existing law in over forty jurisdictions worldwide, from the UK, Ireland and other British islands, to the seven Hague 35 states, to the non-Hague 35 states, which include the US, Australia, five Canadian provinces and a range of others, including the People’s Republic of China, Japan, Singapore, Russia and Turkey.Useful and detailed case studies in Part IV offer background information and insights into a range of contingencies which commonly arise in this field. For such a complicated subject, the book is accessible, clearly written, and easy to use, with a detailed table of contents, footnoting throughout and a handy index at the back.Interestingly, contact details for the editors as well as the individual contributors and correspondents are supplied, as indicated in the preface. Also note the extensive tables of cases… statues and secondary legislation… and international instruments.As this is an expanding, as well as fascinating area of law, international lawyers, particularly those in private law, will no doubt regard this topical and timely book as an essential purchase.The publication date is cited as at 2015.
