Institutionalized Arbitrariness in Uganda (1986–2016)
Authors: Tapscott Rebecca 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
This chapter reviews institutional and historical factors that have allowed Uganda’s National Resistance Movement regime to dominate society and cultivate a population that, in many aspects, polices itself. Focusing on the years between 1986 and 2016, the chapter traces three institutional trajectories of the Ugandan state, which contextualize institutionalized arbitrariness. The first is the bifurcated nature of the state at independence, when colonial-era state institutions split from the informal workings of post-colonial political power. The second trajectory concerns the double nature of the National Resistance Movement regime—a political movement on one hand, and a military on the other. The third is the role of external aid in propping up this complex system. The chapter highlights the tensions between institutionalization and personalization that lay the groundwork for institutionalized arbitrariness. It places Museveni’s Uganda in regional and global context to identify external factors that reinforced Museveni’s regime and checked its power.
Introduction
Authors: Drach Alexis 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
The ambition of this book is to explore the various dimensions of the transition from a state-led to a market-led financial system from the 1970s onwards. In the late 1970s and 1980s, the phrase ‘deregulation’ became a particularly popular term in regulatory spheres, but what kind of change exactly deregulation was? The nine chapters of the book show that if some rules were indeed revoked, particularly in certain countries, other regulations were introduced, particularly in the field of prudential supervision. The combination of an increased surveillance and of more liberal rules marked the end of the twentieth century and differentiated this period from the late- nineteenth-century laissez-faire approach. Rising public debt, new monetary policies, globalization, and weak economic growth were often the main factors underlying the deregulatory moves in the financial sector.
Drivers of Financial Deregulation in Japan
Authors: Hotori Eiji 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
This chapter aims to identify the real drivers of financial deregulation in Japan. Japan’s financial deregulation drivers clearly changed over time. In the late 1960s and the early 1970s, the liberalization of capital movement in Japan caused an administrative shift from its conventional rigid regulatory regime. From the mid-1970s, a rapid increase of Japanese government bonds issuances, as well as financial innovation, acted to remove the barriers between the banking and the securities businesses. From the mid-1980s, the pressure from the United States, as well as from domestic depositors and banks, urged the Japanese financial authorities to liberalize the financial market. It is evident that the drivers of financial deregulation in Japan in the 1980s were not only the pressure from abroad (as generally accepted), but that the deregulation was also driven by domestic interests including fiscal reasons.
Removing Obstacles to Integration
Authors: Drach Alexis 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
European integration played an important role in liberalizing banking and financial markets. Based on archival material from central banks, commercial banks, and bankers’ association in France and the United Kingdom, this chapter sheds light on the role of the European Economic Community in three areas: the realization of a common market in banking, the liberalization of capital movements, and the broader financial integration in the EEC. It argues that in the EEC, financial liberalization had two motives: the deepening of the Common Market, and consolidation of European monetary cooperation/integration. Removing obstacles to integration was the main way used to achieve these goals. The chapter further challenges the work of Rawi Abdelal, which overstates the role of France and downplays the role of the United Kingdom in the liberalization of the financial sector.
Deregulation, Regulatory Convergence, or Escaping from Inefficiency?
Authors: Piluso Giandomenico 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
This chapter focuses on the rationale and objectives of financial deregulation in Italy from the late 1970s to the early 1990s. Deregulation appears as a complex adjustment process to major changes, within the domestic economy and in the international environment, more than the result of a clear-cut plan. In fact, Italy had to cope with difficulties in the manufacturing sector, an exogenous, anti-inflationary, change in monetary policies and a new European legal framework. Her adjustment process largely depended upon the ability of the Bank of Italy, the central bank, to provide sounding analyses and promote reforms in accordance with the emerging European regulatory framework. In the long regulatory cycle started in the mid-1970s the Bank of Italy acted as the main actor, whilst lawmakers had a minor part until 1990, when a new banking law eventually abolished the Banking Law of 1936 catching up with the second European Banking Directive.
The First R2P
Authors: Coates Benjamin A. 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
This chapter explores the role of international lawyers as enablers of military intervention. US lawyers frequently justified US intervention on behalf of private interests in Latin America. They did not ignore the law to do so. While agreeing with Latin Americans that international law frowned on violent debt collection, they contended that it permitted intervention to ‘protect’ citizens and property. When combined with discourses of civilization and barbarism, lawyers found it easy to justify interstate violence even on behalf of unscrupulous claimants: too easy, in fact. As a result, such interventions often lacked public legitimacy and required deft diplomacy to limit political blowback. Just as contemporary debates over the ‘Responsibility to Protect’ have offered legal justification while stirring political controversies, so too the assertion of a ‘Right to Protect’ citizens and investments a century ago demonstrates the importance of legal expertise in shaping the contours of interstate violence.
Hammarskjöld at The Hague
Authors: Jonas Michael 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
The chapter probes into the segment of small-state representatives at the Second Hague Peace Conference in 1907 by focusing on the views and activities of one of the more vocal and influential among the delegates, Hjalmar Hammarskjöld (1862–1953). The analysis of Hammarskjöld’s role, presence, and activities at The Hague serves as a prism of international legal diplomacy and politics and the distinct contribution the northern neutrals made. On that basis, a range of new questions can be asked and suppositions tested—about the function of international law for less powerful states; about the self-conception, international legal tradition, and spectrum of expectations of small-state representatives at the Peace Conferences; about their diplomatic and political ways and means to exercise influence and mould the proceedings; and about the effect and persistence of their experiences at The Hague in their future careers and conduct.
Legal Legwork
Authors: Eichenberg Julia 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
During the Second World War, London hosted eight European governments in exile as well as the French National Committee. For these politicians and diplomats their recognition as the legitimate and legal representatives of their respective countries was of supreme importance, yet no foregone conclusion. Such claims needed to be rooted in international law and supported by titles and documents, especially in those cases where rivalling bodies claimed the same status. Legal experts and jurists were indispensable to formulate these arguments, and the interplay of official channels, informal diplomatic avenues, and academic exchange was crucial. Scholarly expertise in particular proved a diplomatic resource. In the course of this protracted process émigré lawyers became an influential force in defining and preserving statehood, even in the absence of significant political or military power.
Towards a World Class Regime—An Overview of Twenty Years of UK Competition Enforcement
Authors: Freeman Peter 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Chapter 1 provides an excellent and informed general backdrop for the remainder of the chapters. It explains the objectives of the competition law regime introduced from 1998 to 2002 and the problems that led to the reforms of 2013. It reviews how the regime has performed in each aspect: antitrust, markets, mergers, the appeal system and private enforcement, ministers and the public interest, and concurrent application by regulators. It discusses exit from the EU and the ‘digital challenge’ and it comments on the recent reform proposals from the then chairman of the CMA. It gives an overall assessment and considers the way forward, including the possible effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is a must-read for anyone wanting to understand the core aspects and direction of travel of UK competition law in one chapter and sets the scene beautifully for the chapters which follow.
UK Merger Control
Authors: Reader David 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
In Chapter 7, David Reader observes that the introduction of the Enterprise Act 2002 formally ended a much maligned public interest approach to merger control in the UK, oft-criticized for the uncertainty permeated by ministerial decision-making. In its place came a new competition-based test to be applied by independent competition authorities with new powers and resources at their disposal. Despite encountering some teething problems as the authorities sought to interpret their respective roles at Phases 1 and 2, the reforms have proven largely successful in delivering one of the most transparent and predictable merger regimes in the world. This chapter reflects on the evolution of UK merger control under the Enterprise Act, observing that a combination of major—and finer-tuning of the competition authority’s Phase 1 enforcement powers has enabled it to effectively deliver upon its mandate. New challenges lie in wait, however, and Reader stresses that the CMA must be allocated the resources and statutory remit to contend with the increased workload implications presented by Brexit and the novel theories of harm associated with mergers in the digital sector. Of further concern are recent reforms to extend the national security public interest ground, which risk a return to the ‘dark ages’ of opaque ministerial decision-making if further safeguards are not implemented.
Human Rights and the UK Competition Act
Authors: Andreangeli Arianna 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
In Chapter 9, Arianna Andreangeli discusses the approach adopted in the UK towards questions of human rights compliance in UK competition enforcement processes. It examines the nature of competition proceedings in light of Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights and the implications that that issue has for the fairness standards applicable to those proceedings. It is argued that while the recognition that competition cases may have a ‘criminal nature’ does not justify the wholesale extension of all the safeguards that the Convention reserves to criminal cases, it nonetheless means that investigated parties are entitled to some basic protections that Article 6 ECHR enshrines. The chapter explores the Competition Appeal Tribunal’s powers of review of infringement decisions and suggests that at the root of the conferral of a power of scrutiny ‘on the merits’ is the need to ensure that the public enforcement competition proceedings are ‘human-rights proofed’. It concludes that, while demands of effectiveness in the application of the UK competition rules cannot be overlooked, maintaining the CAT’s rigorous review role for competition decisions is indispensable for compliance with human rights standards and for the integrity and reputation of the UK competition framework.
Concurrency
Authors: Dunne Niamh 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
In Chapter 10, Niamh Dunne tackles a key and developing enforcement issue which had not been dealt with in either of the preceding collections: ‘Concurrency’. The concurrency regime empowers certain sector regulators in the UK to apply the competition rules in tandem with the Competition and Markets Authority. Reflecting a strong ideological preference for the benefits of competition over more prescriptive forms of regulatory supervision, the regime has, however, struggled to deliver effective enforcement in practice. This chapter discusses the evolution of the concurrency framework with particular emphasis on the enhancements introduced by the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013, which sought both to encourage regulators to make greater use of their concurrent powers, and to give the CMA a more formal leadership role in assisting them to do so. Subsequent enforcement activity is discussed, alongside the future prospects of competition law in the regulated sectors.
Hatred, Dignity, and Freedom of Expression
Authors: Kramer Matthew H. 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
In his 2012 book The Harm in Hate Speech, Jeremy Waldron has argued sustainedly in favor of hate-speech laws like those that have been enacted in most of the European liberal democracies and in Canada and the Antipodes. His main target is the American position on hate speech, for in the USA any laws along the lines of those just mentioned would be violative of the First Amendment to the American Constitution. This chapter maintains that the gist of the American position is not only a corollary of the First Amendment but also a corollary of the moral principle of freedom of expression. Even more strongly, the chapter contends that the hate-speech statutes championed by Waldron are profoundly demeaning for any country wherein they are adopted. The adoption of such statutes both ensures and presupposes that a system of governance has failed to meet its responsibility to bring about the political and social and economic conditions under which every member of a society can be warranted in harboring an ample sense of self-respect.
Voicing Anger
Authors: Lepoutre Maxime 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Chapter 1 recommends that emotionally charged discourse play an important role in the public speech of divided democracies. The present chapter builds on this recommendation by examining public expressions of anger. It is commonly held that publicly voicing anger is counterproductive. The chapter resists this challenge by articulating a crucial sense in which voicing anger can be epistemically productive. Because of anger’s distinctive felt quality, conveying anger to one’s listeners can play an indispensable role in alerting them to previously overlooked injustices, and in enhancing their understanding of these injustices. This epistemic function is vital in divided societies. Because such societies typically involve significant social segregation and epistemically detrimental ideologies, the injustices endured by some groups are often invisible to, or misunderstood by, other groups. Finally, the chapter defuses the most powerful objections to this defence, partly by exposing how they overlook the systemic character of public discourse.
Graphing Culture Change in North American Archaeology
Authors: Lyman R. Lee 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Documentation, analysis, and explanation of culture change have long been goals of archaeology. The earliest archaeological spindle graphs appeared in the 1880s and 1890s, but had no influence on subsequent archaeologists. Line graphs showing change in frequencies of specimens in each of several artifact types were used in the 1910s and 1920s. Seriograms or straight-sided spindles diagraming interpretations of culture change were published in the 1930s, but were seldom subsequently mimicked. Spindle graphs of centered and stacked columns of bars, each column representing a distinct artifact type, each bar the empirically documented relative frequency of specimens in an assemblage, were developed in the 1940s, became popular in the 1950s and 1960s, and are often used to illustrate culture change in textbooks published during the twentieth century. Graphs facilitate visual thinking, different graph types suggest different ontologies and theories of change, and particular techniques of parsing temporally continuous morphological variation of artifacts into types influence graph form. Line graphs, bar graphs, spindle diagrams, and phylogenetic trees of artifacts and cultures indicate archaeologists often mixed elements of Darwinian variational evolutionary change with elements of Midas-touch-like transformational change. Today there is minimal discussion of graph theory or graph grammar in both introductory archaeology textbooks and advanced texts, and elements of the two theories of evolution are often mixed. Culture has changed, and despite archaeology’s unique access to the totality of humankind’s cultural past, there is minimal discussion on graph theory, construction, and decipherment in the archaeological literature.
Culture Chronology and Change
Authors: Lyman R. Lee 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Archaeology emerged as part of the general discipline of anthropology in North America, the overall focus of which for the first five or six decades of the twentieth century was to write the history of the culture of each group of native North American people. The goal of writing a culture’s history could only be accomplished by placing artifacts in a chronological sequence, which demanded a chronometer. It was not always possible to refer to stratigraphic superposition, so various techniques of seriation—arranging artifacts based on their formal attributes in what was believed to be a chronological order—were invented and used. The results of the seriation techniques and stratigraphic superposition studies were initially summarized in tables of artifact frequencies but eventually were graphed in several ways. Interest in culture chronology and change among North American archaeologists has extended throughout the twentieth century and into the twenty-first century.
Paleontological, Palynological, Biological, and Physical Anthropology Graphs
Authors: Lyman R. Lee 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
The earliest paleontological spindle graphs appear in the 1830s and 1840s, and are of a different style and diagram different kinds of data (absolute frequencies of taxa or kinds) than the earliest archaeological spindle graphs. Palynologists regularly produce so-called pollen diagrams, left-justified spindle graphs, that display temporally varying frequencies of pollen of each of several different plant species. These first appeared in the 1910s, and are of a different style than early twentieth-century archaeological spindle graphs, although the data graphed by the two are similar (relative frequencies of specimens of each of several kinds of phenomena). Biologists used spindle graphs during the early twentieth century to plot both the phylogenetic history of taxonomic families and orders, and frequencies of individual organisms representing different plant and animal species found in different habitat types. Differences in styles of biological spindle graphs and early archaeological spindles suggest the idea for the latter was not in the biological sciences. Physical anthropologists “seriated” biometric data, but early twentieth-century textbooks do not include spindle graphs.
Archaeology Spindle Graphs in the 1930s
Authors: Lyman R. Lee 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
During the 1930s, archaeological spindle graphs in the form of seriograms (straight-sided spindle graphs) were published. Three of these represent the investigator’s suspicions about culture change rather than being strictly empirical. Stylistically, seriograms were seldom subsequently published, suggesting these graphs minimally influenced later researchers. By the 1920s, based on the basically unimodal frequency distributions observed in frequencies of specimens of various pottery types in the American Southwest, anthropologists had begun to suspect there were so-called stylistic pulses reflecting the vogue or popularity of particular kinds of artifacts. Explanations fell back on probability theory, likely as a result of the influence of Franz Boas’s statistical reasoning; kinds of phenomena simply should display unimodal temporal frequency distributions given probability theory. Although conceptually unsophisticated, graphic models of these stylistic pulses published by anthropologists in the 1920s took the rough form of spindle graphs and represent a then unrecognized nod to the theory of variational evolution. These spindle graph models may be the ultimate source of archaeological spindle graphs, but these models were a bit difficult to decipher. Many graphs of culture change appearing in the 1920s and 1930s imply variational evolution.
Terrorism and Its Claims to “Distinctive Significance”
Authors: Coady C. A. J. 
Published: June 2021

Abstract
Chapter 3 addresses four philosophical attempts to show that terrorist attacks, definitional issues aside, have a special moral significance. In their very different ways, these philosophers articulate a concern about terrorism also widely held amongst non-specialists. The philosophers addressing the idea of special significance most directly are Samuel Scheffler, Jeremy Waldron, and Lionel McPherson. Waldron does not use the phrase “special moral significance,” but the idea is at work in his discussion. The fourth is Karen Jones, who doesn’t use “special significance” but her discussion of terrorist disruption of “basal security” seems to mark some distinctive moral feature of terrorism in addition to its being a tactic committed to attacking non-combatants. That makes her claim relevant here. The chapter argues that these various attempts fail to make the strong case they promise, and that the failure is instructive for our understanding of terrorism and for policies to deal with it.
