Post Hoc Interventions: Prospects and Problems
Since prejudice harms so many, it is natural to think that it must be stopped at its source. That it must itself be removed, to stop its undesirable effects. Or, at the very least, that it must be contained, to thereby stop its manifestations. But what if we can’t? What if prejudice proves too entrenched and its manifestations too difficult to stop?
Then we must intervene where we can. We must look downstream from the manifestations of prejudice, yet upstream from its undesirable outcomes, for places where the stream can be rerouted. This is the key insight that motivates the pursuit of post hoc interventions.
This volume collects nine contributions to the emerging literature on this novel approach to prejudice mitigation, composed by the members of a research incubator which took place in 2022 at the Pufendorf Institute of Advanced Studies in Lund, Sweden. It adopts a range of different perspectives, and draws on expertise in epistemology, ethics, law, psychology, statistics and computer science, as it explores various aspects of post hoc interventions.Since prejudice harms so many, it is natural to think that it must be stopped at its source.

Expropriation in Private lnternational Law
This book examines court decisions about seizures of property by foreign states. It is divided into three main parts.
The first part is devoted to preliminary problems. The examination of the requirements imposed on the courts by international law is followed by a discussion of the special status of foreign expropriatory and similar laws in private international law.
The second part concerns the foreign state\u27s right to the property affected by the seizure. An examination of recognizing the expropriator\u27s title to property which has already been effectively seized is followed by a study of the enforcement of foreign expropriatory laws. This part also discusses foreign seizures marked by special defects, in particular seizures violating the law of nations.
The focus of the book is on its third part, which handles the problems connected with distributing the losses caused by foreign seizures. Many lawsuits have considered which of the parties is to bear the consequences of the foreign action but this problem has been discussed in legal literature much less than the validity and enforcement of a seizure. Therefore, this part is more detailed than the previous ones.Abstrac
