Download or read book Public Policy and Public Morality written by Grzegorz Blicharz and published by Wydawnictwo Instytutu Wymiaru Sprawiedliwości. This book was released on 2019 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with two very important but imprecise terms in contemporary law, namely public policy and public morality. It is commendable that such a comprehensive work about general clauses has been prepared. They are the elements of the common good which refers directly to Article 1 of the Constitution of the Republic of Poland. The aim of these clauses is to protect the integrity of Polish legal order and the reason why they are applied boils down to the public interest. The clauses refer to the extralegal criteria of a moral, economic or political nature. That is why, for a legal practice, it appears vital that experts contribute to the clarification of their content and meaning as a legal categories. No less important is entrusting or leaving this task to the courts and other legal bodies. These efforts serve to ensure necessary flexibility in applying, in particular, the public policy clause – a safety valve of legal order. prof. Franciszek Longchamps de Bérier, Jagiellonian University in Kraków The theme of the volume and the studies included in it are very interesting and important from a cognitive and applied perspective. The authors of the book represent various academic circles and different legal disciplines, whereas their conclusiveness is an essential value of the presented analyses. Dr hab. Krzysztof Motyka, The John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Poland The idea of the authors of the book to discuss the issues of “public policy” and “public morality” as legal clauses in Polish law against the background of legal solutions of the European Union and international law deserves recognition. It efficiently combines the findings of the legal doctrine and the judicial decisions which allows to view these problems not only from the theoretical and legal perspective, but also from a practical angle. The presented definitions, theoretical and legal considerations, as well as the rulings regarding the clauses of “public policy” and “public morality” constitute a starting point for the authors to formulate their own arguments and conclusions de lege lata and de lege ferenda. The authors also skillfully describe the afore-mentioned clauses and demonstrate their close relationship with constitutional axiology, emphasizing their limitative nature and homeostatic role.

Download or read book Mind Reading as a Cultural Practice written by Laurens Schlicht and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-04-04 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a genealogical perspective on various forms of mind reading in different settings. We understand mind reading in a broad sense as the twentieth-century attempt to generate knowledge of what people held in their minds – with a focus on scientifically-based governmental practices. This volume considers the techniques of mind reading within a wider perspective of discussions about technological innovation within neuroscience, the juridical system, “occult” practices and discourses within the wider field of parapsychology and magical beliefs. The authors address the practice of, and discourses on, mind reading as they form part of the consolidation of modern governmental techniques. The collected contributions explore the question of how these techniques have been epistemically formed, institutionalized, practiced, discussed, and how they have been used to shape forms of subjectivities – collectively through human consciousness or individually through the criminal, deviant, or spiritual subject. The first part of this book focuses on the technologies and media of mind reading, while the second part addresses practices of mind reading as they have been used within the juridical sphere. The volume is of interest to a broad scholarly readership dealing with topics in interdisciplinary fields such as the history of science, history of knowledge, cultural studies, and techniques of subjectivization.

Book excerpt: The Great Christian Jurists series comprises a library of national volumes of detailed biographies of leading jurists, judges and practitioners, assessing the impact of their Christian faith on the professional output of the individuals studied. Spanish legal culture, developed during the Spanish Golden Age, has had a significant influence on the legal norms and institutions that emerged in Europe and in Latin America. This volume examines the lives of twenty key personalities in Spanish legal history, in particular how their Christian faith was a factor in molding the evolution of law. Each chapter discusses a jurist within his or her intellectual and political context. All chapters have been written by distinguished legal scholars from Spain and around the world.

Download or read book Victim Policies and Criminal Justice on the Road to Restorative Justice written by Tony Peters and published by Leuven University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume contains 22 papers organized into three sections under the following headings: part I is entitled On Promoting Victim Policies; Part II On Reforming Criminal Justice; and Part III On Restorative Justice. All three areas are ones to which Tony Peters, former Professor of Criminology in Leuven, has made a significant contribution and for which he is known as an international authority. During his long and productive academic career Tony Peters led many struggles for criminal justice reform. He was a leading figure in the movement to recognize crime victims' plight and to reaffirm their rights. In Belgium, he spearheaded the early initiatives in restorative justice and became one of its outspoken proponents nationally and internationally. There is no doubt that these three major topics and the various developments and reforms that are addressed in the papers will dominate the thinking about, and the practice of, criminal justice in the years to come. Thus, in addition to paying homage to a congenial friend and an illustrious colleague, it is hoped that this book will appeal and prove useful to all those who have an interest in victims issues, in criminal justice reform, and last but not least, in the promising paradigm of restorative justice.

Download or read book Los fundamentos te ricos y constitucionales del derecho procesal penal written by Eberhard Schmidt and published by Ediciones Olejnik. This book was released on 2024-04-16 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra completa está destinada, en primer lugar, a ser útil a la praxis, en la que yo mismo he hecho mi experiencia. Justamente por esto busco aprovechar, en la mayor forma posible, las resoluciones de nuestro más alto tribunal; mientras que la literatura solo ha podido ser utilizada en forma seleccionada. No quiero presentar un tratado. Pero la denominación “Comentario doctrinario” debe indicar que con mi trabajo persigo también fines didácticos. El estudiante maduro, como el aspirante, deben encontrar aquí los instrumentos científicos que puedan proporcionarle una comprensión del derecho procesal penal, tanto en su totalidad, como en sus aspectos particulares. Las experiencias que acostumbro a hacer en los exámenes finales de derecho con el saber y las posibilidades jurídicos procesales de los jóvenes juristas corrientes, que están al final de su perfeccionamiento, me demuestran que tal tentativa es muy necesaria. Quizás pueda esperar que, justamente, el presente desarrollo del derecho procesal penal y del derecho orgánico de los tribunales pueda ser provechoso para la formación de los aspirantes, muy necesitados de una profundización en este campo del Derecho. EBERHARD SCHMIDT

Download or read book Tourism Imaginaries written by Noel B. Salazar and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2014-06-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is hard to imagine tourism without the creative use of seductive, as well as restrictive, imaginaries about peoples and places. These socially shared assemblages are collaboratively produced and consumed by a diverse range of actors around the globe. As a nexus of social practices through which individuals and groups establish places and peoples as credible objects of tourism, “tourism imaginaries” have yet to be fully explored. Presenting innovative conceptual approaches, this volume advances ethnographic research methods and critical scholarship regarding tourism and the imaginaries that drive it. The various authors contribute methodologically as well as conceptually to anthropology’s grasp of the images, forces, and encounters of the contemporary world.

This book was released on 2018-09-17 with total page 1056 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La materia que aborda esta obra, esto es, el examen de los instrumentos del Derecho Penal moderno (penas, medidas de seguridad, consecuencias accesorias, etc.); el emplazamiento del mismo en el Derecho Público, y sus consecuencias ante el fenómeno de las actuales tendencias privatizadoras del sistema penal; la legitimación y funciones sociales del Derecho Penal; polémica sobre los fines reales y fines atribuidos al castigo; estructura lógica de la norma penal; límites formales y materiales del ius puniendi; Escuelas Penales; fuentes del Derecho Penal; interpretación de la ley penal; vigencia temporal y espacial de esta última; extradición; la denominada euroorden (de detención y entrega), etc. etc.; es universal, interesa a todos los ordenamientos jurídicos cualquiera que sea el modelo en el que se integren (angloamericano, continental, etc.) porque se ocupa de problemas reales y siempre vigentes. Incumbe y preocupa por igual a países comunitarios y no comunitarios. La evolución, además, del Derecho Penal europeo confirma esta tendencia. Hoy, por razones incluso geopolíticas, el mapa europeo ha evolucionado tanto y tan rápido que muy pocos son ya los ordenamientos penales que sintonizan con la dogmática penal clásica “more germanica” que ha perdido su liderazgo. El penalista moderno debe hacer un esfuerzo por volver a las raíces de la Ciencia Criminal, analizando los problemas que interesan y preocupan a todos: los problemas que se examinan en esta quinta edición de Introducción al Derecho Penal.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of International Organizations written by Jacob Katz Cogan and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 1345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually every important question of public policy today involves an international organization. From trade to intellectual property to health policy and beyond, governments interact with international organizations in almost everything they do. Increasingly, individual citizens are directly affected by the work of international organizations. Aimed at academics, students, practitioners, and lawyers, this book gives a comprehensive overview of the world of international organizations today. It emphasizes both the practical aspects of their organization and operation, and the conceptual issues that arise at the junctures between nation-states and international authority, and between law and politics. While the focus is on inter-governmental organizations, the book also encompasses non-governmental organizations and public policy networks. With essays by the leading scholars and practitioners, the book first considers the main international organizations and the kinds of problems they address. This includes chapters on the organizations that relate to trade, humanitarian aid, peace operations, and more, as well as chapters on the history of international organizations. The book then looks at the constituent parts and internal functioning of international organizations. This addresses the internal management of the organization, and includes chapters on the distribution of decision-making power within the organizations, the structure of their assemblies, the role of Secretaries-General and other heads, budgets and finance, and other elements of complex bureaucracies at the international level. This book is essential reading for scholars, practitioners, and students alike.
