Talbot Publishing, September 2021. xvii, 241 pp. (illustrator). Talbot Publishing, September 2021. xvii, 241 pp. Palmer, Simon, Editor. Xiaobo, Zhai, Editor. Bentham Around the World. Clark, New Jersey: Talbot Publishing, September 2021. xvii, 241 pp. ISBN-13: 9781616196561. ISBN-10: 1616196564. Hardcover. New. $95. * A title in the JCL Studies in Comparative Law, Second Series. This collection of essays covers the reception of Jeremy Bentham's legal and political thought in a variety of different countries and historical periods. Authors from around the world explore how Bentham's utilitarian program of legal and political reform was disseminated (and sometimes distorted) in the United States, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, China, Italy, Spain and Australia. Themes or issues shared amongst the essays include the prominent role Etienne Dumont's famous redactions of Bentham's texts played in the early international reception of Bentham's thought, the ways in which Bentham's theories of law and government both succeeded and failed to penetrate political cultures that possessed natural law leanings and, relatedly, the apparent philosophical plasticity of Bentham's thinking (from which both liberal and authoritarian traditions have tried to profit). Together, the essays offer a fresh perspective on the relationship between Bentham's legal and political thought and the global history of utilitarianism. Simon Palmer is a research student at the University of Leuphana Luneburg. His research interests include both contemporary legal philosophy as well as its history, with a particular interest in Bentham's views on language, morality, and law. He has taught at University College London and at the University of Oxford. Zhai Xiaobo is Associate Professor at the University of Macau. His research interests include legal philosophy, constitutional theory, and Bentham studies. His publications in English have appeared in Law and Philosophy, The Journal of Legal History, and International Journal of Constitutional Law. His coedited volume Bentham's Theory of Law and Public Opinion was published by Cambridge University Press in 2014.

Talbot Publishing, September 2021. xiii, 242 pp. (illustrator). Talbot Publishing, September 2021. xiii, 242 pp. Kresin, O.V. Butler, William E., Editor and Translator. Comparative Law In Warsaw 1800-1835. Clark, New Jersey: Talbot Publishing, 2021. xiii, 242 pp. ISBN-13: 9781616196585. ISBN-10: 1616196580. Hardcover. New. $95. * A title in the JCL Studies in Comparative Law, Second Series. The Partitions of Poland (1772, 1793, 1795) and Napoleon's invasions of Central and Eastern Europe (1806-1813) made the territories of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth an unexpected recipient of legal traditions and substantive law imposed by conquering neighbors. At the same time the science of comparative law was beginning to develop. Influenced by these events and a keen interest in German legal thought and French codification, Polish jurists debated the appropriate balance of imported versus autochthonic law, the proper role of legal education, the development of a legal consciousness and the social role of the jurist. This is the first comprehensive study in English to examine the genesis of comparative legal studies in Poland, and Polish contributions to that field, during this decisive era in European history.
