Download or read book Derecho penal constitucional El principialismo penal written by Esiquio Manuel Sánchez Herrera and published by U. Externado de Colombia. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta misma línea de constitucionalización del derecho penal va encaminada la obra del profesor Sánchez Herrera, quien ha sido uno de los grandes gestores de esta idea en nuestro país. El texto comienza por establecer las estrechas relaciones entre el derecho penal y la Constitución Política. Paso seguido, se postulan algunos aspectos generales de los principios constitucionales que irradian el derecho penal. Finalmente, el autor expone cada uno de estos fundamentos constitucionales del derecho penal (dignidad humana, solidaridad, libertad, igualdad, pluralidad, orden social justo, razonabilidad, proporcionalidad, libre desarrollo de la personalidad) y explica en qué consisten, qué efectos conllevan y cómo se materializan en el ámbito del derecho penal. En ese sentido, resulta muy interesante la forma como el señor vicedefensor del pueblo, profesor Esiquio Manuel Sánchez, establece vínculos entre los principios constitucionales del derecho penal y diversas temáticas de la parte general y la parte especial del mismo, poniendo en evidencia que no se trata solamente de bellas y abstractas fórmulas constitucionales y legales sin ninguna relevancia práctica, sino de normas jurídicas con importantes repercusiones en las concretas problemáticas del derecho, los delitos y las penas.

Download or read book Borrowing Justification for Proportionality written by João Andrade Neto and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-11-11 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proportionality test, as proposed in Robert Alexy’s principles theory, is becoming commonplace in comparative constitutional studies. And yet, the question “are courts justified in borrowing proportionality?” has not been expressly put in many countries where judicial borrowings are a reality. This book sheds light on this question and examines the circumstances under which courts are authorized to borrow from alien legal sources to rule on constitutional cases. Taking the Supreme Federal Court of Brazil – and its enthusiastic recourse to proportionality when interpreting the Federal Constitution – as a case study, the book investigates the normative reasons that could justify the court’s attitude and offers a comprehensive overview of its case law on controversial constitutional matters like abortion, same-sex union, racial quotas, and the right to public healthcare. Providing a valuable resource for those interested in comparative constitutional law and legal theory, or curious about Brazilian constitutional law, this book questions the alleged universality of the proportionality test, challenges the premises of Alexy’s principles theory, and discloses more than 68 Brazilian Supreme Court decisions delivered from 2003 to 2018 that would otherwise have remained unknown to an English-speaking audience.

Download or read book Inclusive Development and Multilevel Transboundary Water Governance The Kabul River written by Shakeel Hayat and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-04-30 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The four decades long ideological-based insurgencies and conflict in the Kabul River Basin (KRB) have seriously hampered the relations and foreign policies of both Afghanistan and Pakistan. Consequently, it restricts them to solve various bilateral issues including transboundary waters. This lack of cooperation over shared water resources is one of the barriers to achieve inclusive and sustainable development. Additionally, it has contributed to the prevailing anarchic situation where each country does what it wants. The absence of a formal water-sharing mechanism coupled with poor water management practices within both the riparian counties are resulting various flow and administration-related challenges. Moreover, these challenges are further exacerbated by regional changes in social, political, environmental and economic systems. The scholarly literature suggests that an analytical transboundary water governance framework is essential to address the challenges of water politicisation and securitisation, quality degradation and quantity reduction. Additionally, the literature rarely integrates (a) a multi-level approach, (b) an institutional approach (c) an inclusive development approach, or (d) accounts for the uses of different types of water and their varied ecosystem services for improved transboundary water governance. To enhance human wellbeing and achieve inclusive and sustainable development in the KRB this research indicates that it is essential to: (1) defrost frozen collaboration; (2) bypass border dispute; (3) use biodiversity and ecosystem services approach; (4) address existing and potential natural and anthropogenic challenges; (5) remove contradictions in the policy environment; (6) combat resource limits and dependence by promoting collaboration on long-term cost effective solutions; and (7) enhance knowledge and dialogue on inclusive development.
Download or read book Experience and Judgment written by Edmund Husserl and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 1975-06-01 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Experience and Judgment, Husserl explores the problems of contemporary philosophy of language and the constitution of logical forms. He argues that, even at its most abstract, logic demands an underlying theory of experience. Husserl sketches out a genealogy of logic in three parts: Part I examines prepredicative experience, Part II the structure of predicative thought as such, and Part III the origin of general conceptual thought. This volume provides an articulate restatement of many of the themes of Husserlian phenomenology.
Download or read book Una teor a principialista de la pena written by Guanarteme Sánchez Lázaro, Fernando and published by Marcial Pons. This book was released on 2016-08-26 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Según reiterada doctrina del TC español, «la constitucionalidad de cualquier medida restrictiva de derechos fundamentales viene determinada por la estricta observancia del principio de proporcionalidad». Sobre esta premisa, en la presente obra se esboza una teoría principialista de la pena. Pero frente a las comprensiones mayoritarias, preocupadas por la idea –que apenas por la praxis– de la prevención, la teoría esbozada se interesa primeramente por «la relación de proporcionalidad entre el desvalor del comportamiento… y la pena», y de la mano de la teoría de la ponderación, persigue una mayor racionalización de esta acepción del principio de proporcionalidad, así como de su ponderación con ulteriores principios, en particular, con los de prevención especial y general. En relación con el principio de reeducación y reinserción social, se subraya la necesidad de diferenciar estructuralmente entre derechos de defensa y de prestación, y sobre esta base, las contradicciones del TC, que niega su estatus de derecho fundamental sobre sucesivas peticiones de principio. La importancia atribuida en la obra a la base empírica de las razones no lleva a obviar el principio de prevención general, si bien se sugiere racionalizar su peso a efectos de ponderación. Pues no deja de ser llamativo que la teoría de una institución que incide tan drástica y tangiblemente sobre tantos miles de personas, se asiente sobre principios que se sustraen «en su mayor parte a la verificación empírica». Finalmente, el modelo de ponderación se cierra con las denominadas reglas de la pena. En este sentido, reglas como la recogida en el art. 15 CE, que proscribe las «penas o tratos inhumanos», evidencian hasta qué punto la teoría de la pena necesita de desarrollos, pero de otros desarrollos que permitan, entre otras cosas, discriminar entre las penas inhumanas y las válidas conforme a la Constitución Española. Algo particularmente urgente dadas las derivas punitivas del legislador.

Download or read book Logic written by Martin Heidegger and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-22 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heidegger’s radical thinking on the meaning of truth in a “clear and comprehensive critical edition” (Philosophy in Review). Martin Heidegger’s 1925–26 lectures on truth and time provided much of the basis for his momentous work, Being and Time. Not published until 1976—three months before Heidegger’s death—as volume 21 of his Complete Works, it is nonetheless central to Heidegger’s overall project of reinterpreting Western thought in terms of time and truth. The text shows the degree to which Aristotle underlies Heidegger’s hermeneutical theory of meaning. It also contains Heidegger’s first published critique of Husserl and takes major steps toward establishing the temporal bases of logic and truth. Thomas Sheehan’s elegant and insightful translation offers English-speaking readers access to this fundamental text for the first time.
Download or read book Against the Death Penalty written by Cesare Beccaria and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first known abolitionist critique of the death penalty—here for the first time in English In 1764, a Milanese aristocrat named Cesare Beccaria created a sensation when he published On Crimes and Punishments. At its centre is a rejection of the death penalty as excessive, unnecessary, and pointless. Beccaria is deservedly regarded as the founding father of modern criminal-law reform, yet he was not the first to argue for the abolition of the death penalty. Against the Death Penalty presents the first English translation of the Florentine aristocrat Giuseppe Pelli's critique of capital punishment, written three years before Beccaria's treatise, but lost for more than two centuries in the Pelli family archives. Peter Garnsey examines the contrasting arguments of the two abolitionists, who drew from different intellectual traditions. Pelli was a devout Catholic influenced by the writings of natural jurists such as Hugo Grotius, whereas Beccaria was inspired by the French Enlightenment philosophers. While Beccaria attacked the criminal justice system as a whole, Pelli focused on the death penalty, composing a critique of considerable depth and sophistication. Garnsey explores how Beccaria's alternative penalty of forced labour, and its conceptualisation as servitude, were embraced in Britain and America, and delves into Pelli's voluminous diaries, shedding light on Pelli's intellectual development and painting a vivid portrait of an Enlightenment man of letters and of conscience. With translations of letters exchanged by the two abolitionists and selections from Beccaria's writings, Against the Death Penalty provides new insights into eighteenth-century debates about capital punishment and offers vital historical perspectives on one of the most pressing questions of our own time.
Download or read book Credit Nation written by Claire Priest and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-20 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How American colonists laid the foundations of American capitalism with an economy built on credit Even before the United States became a country, laws prioritizing access to credit set colonial America apart from the rest of the world. Credit Nation examines how the drive to expand credit shaped property laws and legal institutions in the colonial and founding eras of the republic. In this major new history of early America, Claire Priest describes how the British Parliament departed from the customary ways that English law protected land and inheritance, enacting laws for the colonies that privileged creditors by defining land and slaves as commodities available to satisfy debts. Colonial governments, in turn, created local legal institutions that enabled people to further leverage their assets to obtain credit. Priest shows how loans backed with slaves as property fueled slavery from the colonial era through the Civil War, and that increased access to credit was key to the explosive growth of capitalism in nineteenth-century America. Credit Nation presents a new vision of American economic history, one where credit markets and liquidity were prioritized from the outset, where property rights and slaves became commodities for creditors' claims, and where legal institutions played a critical role in the Stamp Act crisis and other political episodes of the founding period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a comprehensive review of the origins, scale and breadth of the privatisation and marketisation revolution across the criminal justice system. Leading academics and researchers assess the consequences of market-driven criminal justice in a wide range of contexts, from prison and probation to policing, migrant detention, rehabilitation and community programmes. Using economic, sociological and criminological perspectives, illuminated by accessible case studies, they consider the shifting roles and interactions of the public, private and voluntary sectors. As privatisation, outsourcing and the impact of market cultures spread further across the system, the authors look ahead to future developments and signpost the way to reform in a ‘post-market’ criminal justice sphere.
