The True Crime Genre
The relationship between media portrayals of the criminal justice system, including the various individuals, and the viewing public has often been an area of controversy. This has generally been couched in terms of ‘media effects’. In 2015, Netflix launched the first season of its docuseries “ Making a Murdere r”, which proved both popular and controversial and covered a ‘real-life’ potential miscarriage of justice. Whilst not unique in terms of …
Adopting a Soft Transdisciplinary Approach via Inquiry/Project Based Learning
Globally, the COVID-19 pandemic brought to the fore fundamental changes and challenges in education. This is also clear within legal education in BRICS countries and beyond, where issues emerged but created space for effective ways forward. In alignment with the special issue theme, this paper provides a vision for post-pandemic education – in this case, in one discipline, namely legal education. Based on an international literature review, it is…
New Competitions and Contracts
Entrepreneurial activities in professional sport often involve the disruption of the existing structures and relationships. A prime example is the revolution in sports broadcasting that has increased in commercial importance as the subscription-based model has developed. Governing bodies across several sports have faced challenges based on an entrepreneur identifying a new competition or even a new game format linked to a broadcasting opportunity…
Contract and Control in the Entertainment Industry
This book examines the contractual relationships of creative artists within a number of areas of the entertainment industry. Whilst it focuses specifically on football, cricket, boxing and music, developments within other parts of the entertainment business are observed. The book also charts the concessions (artistic, professional and personal) that are often made by such artists in an attempt to achieve success and the consequent legal problems …
Beyond Kolpak
The movement of professional cricketers from South Africa to England to play in County Cricket has expanded since the late 1960s. It became more attractive during the period of South African isolation and some players saw English cricket as a route to play at Test match level through changing national allegiance. This paper explores the role of law in facilitating movement in two ways. First, in the case of Greig, the attempt to ban players who c…
From beyond the grave
In recent years there has been an increased interest in mediumship. This has been part of a broader fascination with paranormal issues that has been fostered by new modes of dissemination and communication. This article focuses upon attempts made by the criminal law to regulate mediums, and, in particular, the disjunction between the ‘genuine medium’ and the ‘vulnerable consumer’. It charts historical approaches of the law and provides a critique…
A Continental Ambience? Lessons in Managing Alcohol-related Evening and Night-time Entertainment from Four European Capitals
Attempts to revitalise the centres of British towns and cities in the 1990s drew on the concept of the 24-hour city and, by extension, into liquor licensing reform. The protagonists for the 24-hour city, and many magistrates and local authorities, assumed that a relaxation of British licensing laws would bring about a more civilised mode of alcohol consumption and deliver a 'continental ambience' to urban life that would extend into the night. Th…

Hero or Villain? Cinematic Lawyers and the Delivery of Justice
This essay is concerned with two specific issues that have as their backdrop the heroic central figure, the trial lawyer. First it considers the role of screen lawyers in seeking to maintain public (in this sense the public is the community within the film) support for the due process of law. The issue is the link between the lawyer and the initiation of the formal legal process. Essentially it is the extent to which the lawyer defends the instit…
Artist or artisan? The legal and extra legal influence on cricketers' terms and conditions
From feudal serf to big spender
Enough is Enough
This piece considers ethnicity in sport from the perspective of grass roots efforts to confront racism within the quintessentially English game of cricket. Cricket has a long history of discrimination, originally predicated on the basis of class, although recent events have very publicly raised issues of race and national identity. This piece explores how and why cricket became a positive focal point for successful protest against the apartheid r…

Oh to be in England? Mythology and Identity in English Cricket
This piece looks at the 'outsider' in English cricket and in particular focuses on the position of the overseas player in the amateur game. It draws upon a survey of amateur cricket leagues in England and Wales and interviews with players and officials within these leagues. Central to the analysis are issues of inclusion/exclusion, identity and belonging; notions that are explored in depth within the context of national and local identity in the …
