Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las tesis que aquí se exponen son conocidas en Alemania, pero no aceptadas unánimemente.

Jakobs trata de delimitar el comportamiento socialmente adecuado y el comportamiento socialmente inadecuado.
Download or read book Principles of German Criminal Law written by Michael Bohlander and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-12-18 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German criminal law doctrine, as one of the more influential ones over time and on a global scale, takes rather different approaches to many of the problems of substantive law from those of the common law family of countries like the UK, the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia etc. It also differs markedly from the system which is most often used in Anglophone writing as a civil law comparison, the French law. German criminal law is a code-based model and has been for centuries. The influence of academic writing on its development has been far greater than in the judge-oriented common law models. The book will serve as a useful aid to debates about codification efforts in countries that are mostly based on a case law system, but who wish to re-structure their law in one or several criminal codes. The comparison will show that similar problems occur in all legal systems regardless of their provenance, and the attempts of individual systems at solving them, their successes and their failures, can provide a rich experience on which other countries can draw and on which they can build. The book provides an outline of the principles of German criminal law, mainly the so-called 'General Part' (eg actus reus, mens rea, defences, participation) and the core offence categories (homicide, offences against property, sexual offences). It sets out the principles, their development under the influence of academic writing and judicial decisions. The book is not meant as a textbook of German criminal law, but is a selection of interrelated in-depth essays on the central problems. Wherever it is apposite and feasible, comparison is offered to the approaches of English criminal law and the legal systems of other common and civil law countries in order to allow common lawyers to draw the pertinent parallels to their own jurisdictions.

Download or read book Liars written by Cass R. Sunstein and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-04 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful analysis of why lies and falsehoods spread so rapidly now, and how we can reform our laws and policies regarding speech to alleviate the problem. Lying has been with us from time immemorial. Yet today is different-and in many respects worse. All over the world, people are circulating damaging lies, and these falsehoods are amplified as never before through powerful social media platforms that reach billions. Liars are saying that COVID-19 is a hoax. They are claiming that vaccines cause autism. They are lying about public officials and about people who aspire to high office. They are lying about their friends and neighbors. They are trying to sell products on the basis of untruths. Unfriendly governments, including Russia, are circulating lies in order to destabilize other nations, including the United Kingdom and the United States. In the face of those problems, the renowned legal scholar Cass Sunstein probes the fundamental question of how we can deter lies while also protecting freedom of speech. To be sure, we cannot eliminate lying, nor should we try to do so. Sunstein shows why free societies must generally allow falsehoods and lies, which cannot and should not be excised from democratic debate. A main reason is that we cannot trust governments to make unbiased judgments about what counts as "fake news." However, governments should have the power to regulate specific kinds of falsehoods: those that genuinely endanger health, safety, and the capacity of the public to govern itself. Sunstein also suggests that private institutions, such as Facebook and Twitter, have a great deal of room to stop the spread of falsehoods, and they should be exercising their authority far more than they are now doing. As Sunstein contends, we are allowing far too many lies, including those that both threaten public health and undermine the foundations of democracy itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este trabajo de investigación el autor se ha valido de un método analítico-deductivo, para llegar a la conclusión de que la teoría de la imputación objetiva es un instrumento idóneo a la hora de apreciar responsabilidades en los accidentes de tráfico; y que en algunos accidentes se aprecia tanto en los agentes investigadores como en los jueces, una falta de implicación en esta materia, así como en muchos casos una negligencia de la Administración, por una señalización inadecuada. El autor, Adolfo Costas Gascón, nacido en Anzánigo-Caldearenas (Huesca) en el año 1951 y residente en Pontevedra desde 1987, es capitán de la Guardia Civil retirado, licenciado en Derecho por la UNED en 2004, con un Máster en “Logística para la Seguridad y la Defensa” por la Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (URJC) de Madrid en 2012 y Doctor en Derecho por la URJC en 2015.

Download or read book Las teor as de la causalidad en el da o equivalencia de las condiciones causalidad adecuada e imputaci n objetiva en la doctrina del tribunal supremo written by Melchiori, Franco Andrés and published by J.M Bosch. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ante la existencia de un daño injusto, uno de los presupuestos de responsabilidad civil que más dificultades genera para los operadores jurídicos es el de la causalidad. La complejidad del fenómeno causal ha llevado a los juristas a elaborar diversas teorías para dar respuestas a la sociedad. La diversidad de teorías y posturas, así como de conflictos, cada vez más crecientes, que presenta la realidad, son la antesala a una jurisprudencia inconstante. Los tribunales, en su intención de impartir justicia, mutan de un criterio a otro, de una postura a otra. Y la Sala de lo Civil del Tribunal Supremo no ha sido una excepción. En el presente libro se realiza un análisis de las teorías causales más aplicadas por la jurisprudencia de la Sala Primera. Tarea nada fácil si se considera lo dicho en el párrafo anterior: muchas veces no es asequible establecer una pauta de conducta, una teoría uniforme, dentro de las sentencias de la Sala de lo Civil. No obstante, a través del estudio de más de 100 sentencias se pretende establecer un patrón relativamente uniforme, se busca desentrañar la guía en el proceder de la Excelentísima Sala. Mediante un recorrido cronológico a la vez que dogmático, se explica el camino que ha recorrido la Sala de lo Civil en materia causal. Por motivos obvios, se explican de modo casi exclusivo las teorías de la equivalencia de las condiciones, la teoría de la causalidad adecuada y la teoría de la imputación objetiva. La conclusión es a la vez una síntesis y una propuesta: explica cómo ha procedido habitualmente la Sala Primera y da algunas recomendaciones.
Download or read book Victors Justice written by Danilo Zolo and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-01-28 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victors' Justice is a potent and articulate polemic against the manipulation of international penal law by the West, combining historical detail, juridical precision and philosophical analysis. Zolo's key thesis is that contemporary international law functions as a two-track system: a made-to-measure law for the hegemons and their allies, on the one hand, and a punitive regime for the losers and the disadvantaged, on the other. Though it constantly advertised its impartiality and universalism, international law served to bolster and legitimize, ever since the Tokyo and Nuremberg trials, a fundamentally unilateral and unequal international order.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Latin American Economics written by José Antonio Ocampo and published by Oxford Handbooks. This book was released on 2014-08-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latin America has been central to the main debates on development economics, ranging from the relationships between income inequality and economic growth, and the importance of geography versus institutions in development, to debates on the effects of trade, trade openness and protection on growth and income distribution. Despite increasing interest in the region there are few English language books on Latin American economics. This Handbook, organized into five parts, aims to fill this significant gap. Part I looks at long-term issues, including the institutional roots of Latin America's underdevelopment, the political economy of policy making, the rise, decline and re-emergence of alternative paradigms, and the environmental sustainability of the development pattern. Part II considers macroeconomic topics, including the management of capital account booms and busts, the evolution and performance of exchange rate regimes, the advances and challenges of monetary policies and financial development, and the major fiscal policy issues confronting the region, including a comparison of Latin American fiscal accounts with those of the OECD. Part III analyzes the region's economies in global context, particularly the role of Latin America in the world trade system and the effects of dependence on natural resources (characteristic of many countries of the region) on growth and human development. It reviews the trends of foreign direct investment, the opportunities and challenges raised by the emergence of China as buyer of the region's commodities and competitor in the world market, and the transformation of the Latin America from a region of immigration to one of massive emigration. Part IV deals with matters of productive development. At the aggregate level it analyzes issues of technological catching up and divergence as well as different perspectives on the poor productivity and growth performance of the region during recent decades. At the sectoral level, it looks at agricultural policies and performance, the problems and prospects of the energy sector, and the effects on growth of lagging infrastructure development. Part V looks at the social dimensions of development; it analyzes the evolution of income inequality, poverty, and economic insecurity in the region, the evolution of labor markets and the performance of the educational sector, as well as the evolution of social assistance programs and social security reforms in the region. The contributors are leading researchers that belong to different schools of economic thought and most come from countries throughout Latin America, representing a range of views and recognising the diversity of the region. This Handbook is a significant contribution to the field, and will be of interest to academics, graduate students and policy makers interested in economics, political economy, and public policy in Latin America and other developing economies.

Download or read book Development as Freedom written by Amartya Sen and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2011-05-25 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the winner of the 1988 Nobel Prize in Economics, an essential and paradigm-altering framework for understanding economic development--for both rich and poor--in the twenty-first century. Freedom, Sen argues, is both the end and most efficient means of sustaining economic life and the key to securing the general welfare of the world's entire population. Releasing the idea of individual freedom from association with any particular historical, intellectual, political, or religious tradition, Sen clearly demonstrates its current applicability and possibilities. In the new global economy, where, despite unprecedented increases in overall opulence, the contemporary world denies elementary freedoms to vast numbers--perhaps even the majority of people--he concludes, it is still possible to practically and optimistically restain a sense of social accountability. Development as Freedom is essential reading.
