This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El principio de oportunidad, inherente a la naturaleza del sistema acusatorio, ya estaba presente en la historia del proceso penal colombiano a partir de institutos consagrados en la Carta Política de 1886, lo que comporta entender que no podemos aceptar que sea un mecanismo importado, sin más ni más, de otras latitudes ajenas a nuestra cultura. A la par, se hace necesario derrumbar mitos que se han construido artificial y falsamente en su entorno, como que es una excepción o que comporta intolerables grados de impunidad, si se quieren mejorar las cifras de su aplicación, hoy prácticamente irrisorias, por no decir inexistentes desde el punto de vista estadístico. Este trabajo se ocupa de dicho caso y atiende además sus aspectos sustanciales y procesales, de tal manera que nuestra generación actual y las futuras capten la importancia y significación de tan buen instrumento, que no solo aporta a la eficacia, eficiencia y celeridad procesal, sino también a la justicia material en los casos concretos en los que se haga imperioso y necesario cumplir con el mandato constitucional de la justicia social.

This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta nueva edición, en esta Casa de Estudios, prosigue la línea trazada en las ediciones anteriores, especialmente en lo expuesto en la segunda, aparecida en el año 2017. No obstante, tiene una especial particularidad. Dada la interdependencia con el derecho penal de los mayores de edad, y también su especialidad, hemos construido un A-Z de principios y subprincipios rectores que determinan y guían las decisiones que deben ser tomadas en materia del derecho penal de la adolescencia. La redacción de la Ley 1098 de 2006 tiene una muy interesante particularidad, puesto que se hace desde la perspectiva de las normas principios y no de las normas reglas, aspecto que hace de su correcta interpretación el éxito de la aplicación de una legislación tan sensible como determinante para el futuro de una sociedad moderna. Los principios y subprincipios se incardinan de tal manera que unos parecen repetir o reiterar lo que ya otro u otros ha señalado. Empero, no se trata de detectar allí contradicciones o antinomias normativas, sino una imposición de ejercicios de armonización y sincronización en su aplicación. El norte se orienta, principalmente, hacia los artículos 1, 2, 4, 93 y 94 de la Carta Política y el Orden Público Internacional de los Derechos Humanos. Por demás, se actualiza el texto con las normas jurídicas, doctrina y jurisprudencia que han tenido discusión en el entretanto de la segunda edición y de esta actualización. Particularmente es importante señalar que este tomo se refiere al principio de oportunidad en sentido estricto, pero no es menos cierto que dentro de tal conceptualización también cabe una definición en sentido amplio, en la cual se recogen múltiples mecanismos alternativos de solución de conflictos que tienen como denominador común la voluntad de las partes involucradas en los mismos, lo que no es más que un desarrollo del derecho procesal consensual, como lo ha establecido la Corte Constitucional en su Sentencia T-142 de 2019, luego de estudiar los antecedentes normativos y jurisprudenciales de los consabidos instrumentos: Con fundamento en lo anterior, es dado concluir del Acto Legislativo 03 de 2002, por el cual se modifican los artículos 116 y 250 de la Constitución ?? Política? , las siguientes particularidades: (i) se trata de un principio que se aplica mediante figuras procesales tales como las preclusiones que profiere la Fiscalía cuando hay conciliación, por indemnización integral, desistimiento, transacción o bien aplicándolo en la sentencia anticipada o audiencia especial; (ii) constituye ?un mecanismo apto para canalizar la selectividad espontánea de todo sistema penal?; (iii) permite simplificar, acelerar y hacer más eficiente la administración de justicia penal, descongestionándola de la pequeña y mediana criminalidades; y (iv) bajo la estricta regulación legal, se le permitiría a la Fiscalía, en determinadas circunstancias, prescindir total o parcialmente del ejercicio de la acción penal o limitarla a alguna de las personas que intervinieron en la conducta punible.

Download or read book How Tobacco Smoke Causes Disease written by United States. Public Health Service. Office of the Surgeon General and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report considers the biological and behavioral mechanisms that may underlie the pathogenicity of tobacco smoke. Many Surgeon General's reports have considered research findings on mechanisms in assessing the biological plausibility of associations observed in epidemiologic studies. Mechanisms of disease are important because they may provide plausibility, which is one of the guideline criteria for assessing evidence on causation. This report specifically reviews the evidence on the potential mechanisms by which smoking causes diseases and considers whether a mechanism is likely to be operative in the production of human disease by tobacco smoke. This evidence is relevant to understanding how smoking causes disease, to identifying those who may be particularly susceptible, and to assessing the potential risks of tobacco products.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises written by Dr. Cecilia Menjívar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-16 with total page 953 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises is to deconstruct, question, and redefine through a critical lens what is commonly understood as "migration crises." The volume covers a wide range of historical, economic, social, political, and environmental conditions that generate migration crises around the globe. At the same time, it illuminates how the media and public officials play a major role in framing migratory flows as crises. The volume brings together an exceptional group of scholars from around the world to critically examine migration crises and to revisit the notion of crisis through the context in which permanent and non-permanent migration flows occur. The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises offers an understanding of individuals in societies, socio-economic structures, and group processes. Focusing on migrants' departures and arrivals in all continents, this comprehensive handbook explores the social dynamics of migration crises, with an emphasis on factors that propel these flows as well as the actors that play a role in classifying them and in addressing them. The volume is organized into nine sections. The first section provides a historical overview of the link between migration and crises. The second looks at how migration crises are constructed, while the third section contextualizes the causes and effects of protracted conflicts in producing crises. The fourth focuses on the role of climate and the environment in generating migration crises, while the fifth section examines these migratory flows in migration corridors and transit countries. The sixth section looks at policy responses to migratory flows, The last three sections look at the role media and visual culture, gender, and immigrant incorporation play in migration crises.

Download or read book Global Burden of Armed Violence 2015 written by Geneva Declaration Secretariat and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-16 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2015 edition of the Global Burden of Armed Violence provides a wealth of data relevant to security and the post-2015 sustainable development framework. It estimates that 508,000 people died violently - in both conflict and non-conflict settings - every year in 2007–12, down from 526,000 in 2004–09. This trend is visible in non-conflict settings, where the proportion of women and girls is also slightly reduced, from 17 to 16 per cent. Yet, the number of direct conflict deaths is on the rise: from 55,000 to 70,000 per year over the same periods. Firearms are used in close to half of all homicides committed and in almost one-third of direct conflict deaths. Nearly USD 2 trillion in global homicide-related economic losses could have been saved if the homicide rate in 2000–10 had been reduced to the lowest practically attainable levels - between 2 and 3 deaths per 100,000 population.

Download or read book Party System Collapse written by Jason Seawright and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most party systems are relatively stable over time. Yet in the 1980s and 1990s, established party systems in Peru and Venezuela broke down, leading to the elections of outsider Alberto Fujimori and anti-party populist Hugo Chavez. Focusing on these two cases, this book explores the causes of systemic collapse. To date, scholars have pointed to economic crises, the rise of the informal economy, and the charisma and political brilliance of Fujimori and Chavez to explain the changes in Peru and Venezuela. This book uses economic data, surveys, and experiments to show that these explanations are incomplete. Political scientist Jason Seawright argues that party-system collapse is motivated fundamentally by voter anger at the traditional political parties, which is produced by corruption scandals and failures of representation. Integrating economic, organizational, and individual considerations, Seawright provides a new explanation and compelling new evidence to present a fuller picture of voters' decisions and actions in bringing about party-system collapse, and the rise of important outsider political leaders in South America.

Download or read book Out of the Ashes written by Koen Feyter and published by Intersentia nv. This book was released on 2005 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, the issue of reparation for victims of gross and systematic human rights violations has given rise to intense debates at the national and the international level. Discussions particularly arise in post-conflict situations characterised by serious violations of human rights, such as genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and other forms of injustice of the past. Crucial questions include: what harm inflicted to victims warrants reparation? when and how to repair the harm? who is eligible for reparation and who has the duty to repair? These and other questions raise many challenging issues for theory and practice. This volume contains the contributions presented at an international conference in Brussels, in February 2005, on the right to reparation for victims of serious human rights violations. It also includes the final report of a research project undertaken jointly at the Universities of Antwerp (UA) and Leuven (K.U.Leuven) between 2000 and 2004 on the right to reparation in international law for victims of gross and systematic human rights violations, both from a legal and a socio-political perspective. The present volume is aimed at academics, policy-makers, national and international courts and tribunals, the legal professions, and civil society at large.
