​VOLUME 3 ISSUE 1: MAY 2015

Volume three, issue one, leads with Enrique Prieto-Rios' 'Neoliberal Market Rationality: The Driver of International Investment Law'. It features fantastic, wide-ranging interviews with Alberto Toscano and Eduardo Mendieta (foreword to the latter provided by Oscar Guardiola-Rivera), and two award-winning features - an essay review on intersectionality in law, by Jonathan Ow, and a punchy answer to the question 'Is Magna Carta More Honoured in the Breach?' by Ian McDonald. Our other excellent articles come from Judith Perle, Dzmitry Tsapkou, Samantha S Moura Ribeiro, and Mikael Silfors. They explore the story of property rights through the right to roam; 'dataveillance' and the contemporary relevance of Foucault's pantoptic principle; Google, privacy, surveillance, and the right to be forgotten in Brazil's recent landmark cases; and conceptions of rape in Swedish law (with implications for law in general and how it conceives of objectivity, responsibility and victimhood).
