Download or read book El nuevo estatuto jur dico de los animales en el Derecho civil written by José Manuel de Torres Perea and published by Editorial Reus. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El autor es profesor titular de Derecho Civil en la Universidad de Málaga. Formado en ICADE ha sido profesor visitante, entre otras, en las Universidades Goethe en Frankfurt, Northwestern en Chicago y Pennsylvania en Filadelfia. Ha publicado seis monografías, numerosos artículos doctrinales y ha colaborado en diversas obras colectivas. Actualmente es coordinador del Proyecto Erasmus + Capacity Building Calesa. En este libro nos ofrece un riguroso y minucioso estudio sobre el actual estado del conocimiento científico en relación con el estatus jurídico que nuestro Derecho Privado debería reconocer a los animales. Este estudio, fundamentalmente jurídico, se apoya en distintas disciplinas como la filosofía, la biología, la sociología, la primatología o la etología evolutiva. Esta publicación llega en un momento muy oportuno. El artículo 13 del Tratado de Funcionamiento de la Unión Europea califica a los animales como «seres sensibles», lo cual obliga a adaptar nuestras leyes civiles a esta nueva realidad. Si bien en 2017 se aprobó por unanimidad una proposición de Ley a tal fin, las sucesivas vicisitudes parlamentarias han impedido su tramitación. Tras el nombramiento de un Director General de Derechos de los Animales el 29 de enero de 2020, parece que dicha tramitación se retomará en breve. El autor ha pretendido superar la mera reflexión u opinión y aportar criterios objetivos que sirvan para encauzar un debate jurídico aún por construir. El lector juzgará si es alcanzable este propósito, si bien sería satisfactorio si la lectura sirviera para concienciarle de la necesidad de proteger, también en las leyes civiles, a nuestros compañeros de viaje, los animales, de ese gran depredador en el que se ha convertido hoy el ser humano.

Download or read book Animals Property The Law written by Gary Francione and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 1995-04-28 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pain is pain, irrespective of the race, sex, or species of the victim," states William Kunstler in his foreword. This moral concern for the suffering of animals and their legal status is the basis for Gary L. Francione's profound book, which asks, Why has the law failed to protect animals from exploitation? Francione argues that the current legal standard of animal welfare does not and cannot establish fights for animals. As long as they are viewed as property, animals will be subject to suffering for the social and economic benefit of human beings. Exploring every facet of this heated issue, Francione discusses the history of the treatment of animals, anticruelty statutes, vivisection, the Federal Animal Welfare Act, and specific cases such as the controversial injury of anaesthetized baboons at the University of Pennsylvania. He thoroughly documents the paradoxical gap between our professed concern with humane treatment of animals and the overriding practice of abuse permitted by U.S. law.

Download or read book Animal Liberation written by Peter Singer and published by Random House. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should we treat non-human animals? In this immensely powerful and influential book (now with a new introduction by Sapiens author Yuval Noah Harari), the renowned moral philosopher Peter Singer addresses this simple question with trenchant, dispassionate reasoning. Accompanied by the disturbing evidence of factory farms and laboratories, his answers triggered the birth of the animal rights movement. 'An extraordinary book which has had extraordinary effects... Widely known as the bible of the animal liberation movement' Independent on Sunday In the decades since this landmark classic first appeared, some public attitudes to animals may have changed but our continued abuse of animals in factory farms and as tools for research shows that the underlying ideas Singer exposes as ethically indefensible are still dominating the way we treat animals. As Yuval Harari’s brilliantly argued introduction makes clear, this book is as relevant now as the day it was written.
Download or read book La Ley 17 2021 sobre R gimen Jur dico de los Animales written by Domínguez Luelmo, Andrés and published by Editorial Reus. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Esta monografía gira en torno a la Ley 17/2021, de 15 de diciembre, de modificación del Código Civil, la Ley Hipotecaria y la Ley de Enjuiciamiento Civil, sobre el régimen jurídico de los animales. La actualidad de la obra se justifica por su novedad y por la evolución jurisprudencial en torno al estatuto jurídico aplicable a los animales, de manera especial en los procesos de separación y divorcio. El autor analiza con rigor cada una de las instituciones modificadas: clasificación de los bienes, posesión, adquisición de la propiedad (ocupación y hallazgo), acción de división de la cosa común, usufructo, saneamiento por vicios o defectos ocultos de los animales, los animales como objeto de sucesión mortis causa, problemática de los animales de compañía en las viviendas arrendadas y en régimen de propiedad horizontal, embargo, pignoración y extensión objetiva de la hipoteca, los animales de compañía en las crisis matrimoniales y en la sociedad de gananciales. En cada una de estas instituciones se analiza el estado de la cuestión, y se profundiza en ellas desde el punto de vista dogmático. Además, se recoge toda la jurisprudencia recaída sobre la materia (especialmente, por tratarse de resoluciones muy recientes, la de Audiencias provinciales y Juzgados de instancia). Aparte de ello, se ponen de relieve los aspectos que han sido modificados en los principales países de nuestro entorno, que se han anticipado a España en la reforma de sus Códigos civiles y de sus Leyes procesales civiles. Se aporta además, como valor añadido, el haber recogido actualizada toda la normativa autonómica sobre protección de los animales (al igual que la normativa sectorial estatal, y de la Unión Europea), así como la relativa a la caza y a la pesca, que afecta al régimen de adquisición de la propiedad de los animales por ocupación. La obra no se estructura a modo de comentario a los artículos modificados, sino que los temas analizados se sistematizan por capítulos, dando unidad a su tratamiento, mayor claridad a la exposición y facilitando la consulta y resolución de cada uno de los problemas.

Download or read book The Diario of Christopher Columbus s First Voyage to America 1492 1493 written by and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive edition of Columbus's account of the voyage presents the most accurate printed version of his journal available to date. Unfortunately both Columbus's original manuscript, presented to Ferdinand and Isabella along with other evidence of his discoveries, and a single complete copy have been lost for centuries. The primary surviving record of the voyage-part quotation, part summary of the complete copy-is a transcription made by Bartolome de las Casas in the 1530s. This new edition of the Las Casas manuscript presents its entire contents-including notes, insertions, and canceled text-more accurately, completely, and graphically than any other Spanish text published so far. In addition, the new translation, which strives for readability and accuracy, appears on pages facing the Spanish, encouraging on-the- spot comparisons of the translation with the original. Study of the work is further facilitated by extensive notes, documenting differences between the editors' transcription and translation and those of other transcribers and translators and summarizing current research and debates on unanswered current research and debates on unanswered questions concerning the voyage. In addition to being the only edition in which Spanish and English are presented side by side, this edition includes the only concordance ever prepared for the Diario. Awaited by scholars, this new edition will help reduce the guesswork that has long plagued the study of Columbus's voyage. It may shed light on a number of issues related to Columbus's navigational methods and the identity of his landing places, issues whose resolution depend, at least in part, on an accurate transcription of the Diario. Containing day-by-day accounts of the voyage and the first sighting of land, of the first encounters with the native populations and the first appraisals of his islands explored, and of a suspenseful return voyage to Spain, the Diario provides a fascinating and useful account to historians, geographers, anthropologists, sailors, students, and anyone else interested in the discovery-or in a very good sea story. Oliver Dunn received the PH.D. degree from Cornell University. He is Professor Emeritus in Purdue University and a longtime student of Spanish and early history of Spanish America. James E. Kelley, Jr., received the M.A. degree from American University. A mathematician and computer and management consultant by vocation, for the past twenty years he has studied the history of European cartography and navigation in late-medieval times. Both are members of the Society for the History of Discoveries and have written extensively on the history of navigation and on Columbus's first voyage, Although they remain unconvinced of its conclusions, both were consultants to the National geographic Society's 1986 effort to establish Samana Cay as the site of Columbus's first landing.
