Beskrivning

Bringing together a range of leading private law scholars, this book considers developments in law, policy and practice resulting from, and driven by wider changes in society and the legal system over the last forty years.In reflecting on these developments, the book honours the scholarship of Professor Kenneth McK. Norrie who spent his forty-year academic career expertly navigating this changing world, identifying the legal implications of it and contributing to law reform in several areas of Scots law. One of the unique features of Professor Norrie’s scholarship is its breadth and so, in celebration of this, contributions come from across private law including its interface with public law.Private Law Reform in a Changing World brings together different perspectives on key contemporary issues in private law covering varied and topical areas of law such as abortion, children’s rights, youth justice and child protection, parenthood, adult intimate relationships, delict and succession.

Dr Donnelly is a socio-legal researcher with interests in child and family law and justice, mainly focused on compulsory state intervention in family life. Her PhD thesis (2017) examined the unitary nature of the children’s hearings system as an integrated child protection and justice forum. She has contributed to studies examining aspects of children’s hearings practice and child justice more broadly. Dr Donnelly is a Co-Investigator for a major research programme funded by the Nuffield Foundation, ‘Challenging Justice Inequalities. Co-producing change with children in conflict with the law’ (2024-2026). Alyson Evans is a Lecturer in Scots Private Law at Strathclyde Law School (2023-present). Before joining the Law School, she held a number of posts working in strategy, policy and practice in relation to child protection and most recently was Head of Wellbeing and Protection for the Scottish Football Association for five years. Dr Evans’ research interests relate broadly to child and family law, specifically the children’s hearings system and child protection in familial and non-familial settings. Dr Evans has a PhD from Strathclyde (2022), achieved through part-time study alongside full-time employment, which considered legal rights in the children’s hearings system. She has continued her research focus on the children’s hearings system as author of several publications on the system.
