Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le questionnement autour de l'influence du principe de précaution sur la responsabilité juridique s'est posé, à la fois dans le discours doctrinal et dans la pratique judiciaire, au constat du renouvellement des risques de dommage qu'entraîne l'évolution technologique pour l'environnement et le vivant. Face à une demande répressive et indemnitaire croissante en provenance du corps social, la question est de savoir si le principe de précaution est à même d'engendrer un renouvellement de la responsabilité juridique, civile et pénale. Combinant une approche pluridisciplinaire et une méthode comparative, cet ouvrage se propose un double objectif. Saisir tout d'abord la portée et le contenu normatif du principe de précaution à travers l'étude de ses dynamiques normatives : circulation horizontale entre les différentes branches du droit international et circulation verticale du droit international et européen vers le droit national. Repérer ensuite les métamorphoses de la responsabilité juridique que le principe de précaution est susceptible d'engendrer à l'échelle nationale, le terme métamorphoses désignant, à l'instar des sciences du vivant, moins le résultat que les processus de transformation de la responsabilité juridique. A partir de l'analyse du processus de transformation, de changement, de façonnement de ce droit "vivant", la recherche vise à repérer, interroger et encadrer les limites de l'influence du principe de précaution sur le droit de la responsabilité, et notamment sur les sources et la mise en oeuvre de la responsabilité pénale. Dans cette perspective elle rend compte des acquis, théoriques et pratiques, dans le domaine de la responsabilité - civile et pénale - au regard de l'expérience française et comparée (Italie, Espagne, Chine et Argentine).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fortement médiatisé, le principe de précaution n'a encore fait l'objet d'aucune étude juridique en droit de la responsabilité civile. Cette étude a alors pour but de rendre compte de l'originalité de ce nouveau principe juridique et des rapports à la fois riches et complexes qu'il entretient avec le droit de la responsabilité civile, dont le but est, au contraire, en premier lieu indemnitaire. Dans une première partie de l'étude, Mme Boutonnet prend acte de l'émergence du principe de précaution en droit de la responsabilité civile comme principe consistant, aujourd'hui, à prévenir les dommages graves dans les domaines de l'environnement, de la santé et de la bioéthique, lorsque ces derniers atteignent certains intérêts collectifs. A ce titre, comme le montre la seconde partie de l'étude, le principe de précaution pourrait entraîner des conséquences en droit de la responsabilité civile. Au minimum, dans une finalité réparatrice, il renouvellerait l'appréciation du fait générateur, du dommage et du lien de causalité. Au maximum, il pourrait devenir un nouveau principe du droit de la responsabilité civile dont il découlerait une action préventive et collective. L'étude envisage alors la nature et le régime de cette nouvelle action en responsabilité civile, tout en démontrant que cette évolution s'effectuerait avec souplesse.

Download or read book Labour Rights as Human Rights written by Philip Alston and published by Collected Courses of the Acade. This book was released on 2005 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are efforts to protect workers' rights compatible with the forces of globalization? How can minimum standards designed to protect labour rights be implemented in a world in which national labour law is more and more at the mercy of international forces beyond its control? And does it makeany difference if we see rights such as the right to freedom of association, to non-discrimination in the workplace, to freedom from child labour, and to safe and healthy working conditions in terms of international human rights law? Or are they more appropriately seen as 'principles' to bepromoted as and where appropriate?The contributors to this volume argue that international agreements and institutions are of central importance if labour rights are to be protected in a globalized economy. But the report cards they give to the World Trade Organization, the European Union, NAFTA, and the Free Trade Agreement of theAmericas are generally very critical. While there is a strong rhetorical commitment to labour rights, at least on the part of the US and the EU, the substance of what has been achieved to date is hardly impressive. The role of the International Labour Organization is central and the authorsexplore some of the options that are open to governments, civil society, and the labour movement in the years ahead.

Download or read book Contemporary Criminological Issues written by Carolyn Côté-Lussier and published by University of Ottawa Press. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary Criminological Issues tackles some of today’s most pressing social issues, from the criminalization of Indigenous peoples to interpersonal violence, border control, and armed conflicts. This book advances cutting-edge theories and methods, with the aim of moving beyond the scholarship that reproduces insecurity and exclusion. The breadth of approaches encompasses much of the current critical criminological scholarship, serving as a counterpoint to the growth of managerial and administrative criminologies and the rise of explicitly exclusionary and punitive state policies and practices with respect to ‘crime’ and ‘security.’ This edited collection featuring two books, one in English and one in French, includes important contributions to knowledge and public policy by eminent experts and emerging scholars. This book is published in English.

This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By combining a method – comparative studies – with an ongoing process – the internationalization of law, that is, its extension beyond national borders – this Chair looks to the future, as uncertain as it may be. Of course current events tragically highlight the absence of a real legal world order. The collective security system of the Charter of the United Nations has shown its weaknesses and law has been unable to disarm force. Conversely, however, force cannot prevent this unprecedented extension of law, to the extent that no State can lastingly override it. In spite of appearances, it is no longer possible today to ignore the superposition of regional, national and global standards, nor the over-abundance of both national and international institutions and judges, with expanded jurisdiction. The new realities are causing law to evolve into complex and highly unstable interactive systems that are perhaps more symptomatic of profound change than of the defeat of law: we are faced with a change in the very conception of the legal order.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.

Download or read book Jacques Ellul and the Technological Society in the 21st Century written by Helena M. Jerónimo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-07-08 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume rethinks the work of Jacques Ellul (1912-1994) on the centenary of his birth, by presenting an overview of the current debates based on Ellul's insights. As one of the most significant twentieth-century thinkers about technology, Ellul was among the first thinkers to realize the importance of topics such as globalization, terrorism, communication technologies and ecology, and study them from a technological perspective. The book is divided into three sections. The first discusses Ellul’s diagnosis of modern society, and addresses the reception of his work on the technological society, the notion of efficiency, the process of symbolization/de-symbolization, and ecology. The second analyzes communicational and cultural problems, as well as threats and trends in early twenty-first century societies. Many of the issues Ellul saw as crucial – such as energy, propaganda, applied life sciences and communication – continue to be so. In fact they have grown exponentially, on a global scale, producing new forms of risk. Essays in the final section examine the duality of reason and revelation. They pursue an understanding of Ellul in terms of the depth of experience and the traditions of human knowledge, which is to say, on the one hand, the experience of the human being as contained in the rationalist, sociological and philosophical traditions. On the other hand there are the transcendent roots of human existence, as well as “revealed knowledge,” in the mystical and religious traditions. The meeting of these two traditions enables us to look at Ellul’s work as a whole, but above all it opens up a space for examining religious life in the technological society.
