Digital sustainability assurance represents a new form of value chain coordination, led by extra-transactional digital actors, who gain control over digital data flows and have the potential to steer towards sustainability.

Summary: Neo-Brandeisian legal scholars have found that Europe, rather than the United States, is more receptive to the ideas of Louis Brandeis. Through analyzing the development of EU competition law, it is evident that the EU's administrative system, with significant bureaucratic discretion, has led to a regulated competition system that aligns with the principles advocated by Brandeis.

Summary: After gaining independence in 1963, Kenya entered its democratic era, but its constitution underwent several reforms that transformed it from a democratic model to an authoritarian one-party system. Two decades later, political changes and the wave of democratization led to calls for constitutional change. The key factors contributing to the failure of the constitutional-making process were the strong influence of political forces and their partisan use.

Summary: This article argues that the ostensible minority protection mechanisms in company law, such as the derivative claim and unfair prejudice, fail to effectively protect the intended beneficiaries. The remedies are hard to access, overly focused on the behavior of the wronged party, and offer inadequate relief. However, by applying an institutional analysis and examining the rules from the perspective of the company, these weaknesses can be turned into strengths for the company. The remedies act as a "lightning rod" for complaints by disgruntled shareholders, protecting the institutional arrangement of the company and the broader company law framework.

Summary: Using therapeutic jurisprudence, this paper argues that the rights of pregnant workers are vulnerable in a post-Brexit climate. Despite the lifting of the sunset clause, the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Act 2023 still grants the government wide powers to change EU derived legislation. Through an example from employment law, the paper demonstrates the potential violation of positive outcomes for pregnant workers.

Summary: The UK Government has introduced a new definition of 'treasure' under the Treasure Act 1996, which significantly changes the legal understanding of 'treasure' in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. While this reform represents a substantial change to the existing legal framework, it does not fully address the criticisms and deficiencies of the old law, and fails to meet the needs of 21st-century treasure law.
