Set up to fail? Responsibilisation, debt and home loss in the social rented sector
This article contributes to an understanding of the effects of the ‘responsibilisation agenda’ on social housing tenants in the UK, drawing on their testimonies to offer an evaluation of the impact of policies designed to discipline them into taking responsibility for maintaining their tenancy. While the focus of the investigation is on the UK, the themes explored herein will resonate with those in developed economies, including Australia, the US…
Missing in action? Mortgage enforcement under section 126 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974
This paper sets out the true ambit of section 126 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974, noting that it requires virtually all residential mortgage agreements to be enforced by court order. Despite this, numerous commentaries on the English law of mortgage omit reference to section 126. The implications of our findings are profound. Not least, many accounts of the law of mortgage will require substantial revision, including recognition of the fact that…
Making the Case for Socio‐legal Research in Land Law: Renner and the Law of Mortgage
The aim of this article is to enhance knowledge of and to encourage further research into two areas not traditionally the subject of socio‐legal research, namely, the work of Karl Renner and the English law of mortgage, for three reasons. First, an account of them supports the proposition that a true understanding of law requires knowledge of its origins, content, and function. Second, Renner's theory can contribute significantly to our understan…

In February 2008, the Civil Justice Council circulated for consultation a mortgage arrears pre‐action protocol that proposed some of the most radical and significant reforms of the repossession process for a century. Hinting at a return to the equitable tradition, the draft protocol required a minimum level of equitable dealing within the mortgage relationship coupled with the restriction and, at times, exclusion of the lender's inherent right to…
Corporate Social Responsibility, Corporate Citizenship and the Global Compact: A New Approach to Regulating Corporate Social Power
This article addresses the apparent demise of the concept of corporate social responsibility and its usurpation within academic literature, managerial practice and policy debate, by the concept of corporate citizenship. Having failed in its attempt to compel companies to behave responsibly, corporate social responsibility has been superseded by a more consensual approach that seeks to encourage companies to behaveas good corporate citizens. To vi…
Railtrack is Dead – Long Live Network Rail? Nationalization Under the Third Way
This essay offers, by way of an examination of the proposals to reform the railway industry, a case study of the government's attempt to operationalize the third way. That these proposals are consistent with the third way is identified within this essay and yet they would appear to give rise to the de facto renationalization of the railway infrastructure. In accounting for this apparent contradiction in the (third way) means used and the (old‐sty…
