Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this handbook, scholars from around the world offer an up-to-date account of the state of the art in different areas of onomastics, in a format that is both useful to specialists in related fields and accessible to the general reader. Since Ancient Greece, names have been regarded as central to the study of language, and this has continued to be a major theme of both philosophical and linguistic enquiry throughout the history of Western thought. The investigation of name origins is more recent, as is the study of names in literature. Relatively new is the study of names in society, which draws on techniques from sociolinguistics and has gradually been gathering momentum over the last few decades. The structure of this volume reflects the emergence of the main branches of name studies, in roughly chronological order. The first Part focuses on name theory and outlines key issues about the role of names in language, focusing on grammar, meaning, and discourse. Parts II and III deal with the study of place-names and personal names respectively, while Part IV outlines contrasting approaches to the study of names in literature, with case studies from different languages and time periods. Part V explores the field of socio-onomastics, with chapters relating to the names of people, places, and commercial products. Part VI then examines the interdisciplinary nature of name studies, before the concluding Part presents a selection of animate and inanimate referents ranging from aircraft to animals, and explains the naming strategies adopted for them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Domain Name System (DNS), which matches computer addresses to human-friendly domain names, has given rise to many legal issues.

In particular, the book includes a comprehensive statement of decisions under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP), the international system for resolving disputes between trade mark owners and domain name registrants.

Download or read book Change of Name written by Nasreen Pearce and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many reasons why a name is initially given to a child by his or her parents and as many reasons for the parents or either of them or the child or others to desire to alter the name. Similarly there are many reasons an adult person may wish to take on a different name. Often there is underlying deep-rooted political, social cultural tribal or religious reasons but there may also be reasons to keep up with fashion or a trend. Whatever the reason it is important that the name taken or assumed is legally recognised. This fully updated fourth edition like its predecessors provides a simple straightforward guide on why and how person's acquires a name and how that name may be changed so that it is given legal recognition to identify the person concerned for all purposes. The traditional or typical family no longer exists due to the changes in the way families are formed, how households are structured and how conception of a child is achieved. There are also increasing number of single parent families or 'reconstituted' families. This pattern is forever evolving. It is therefore not surprising that it gives rise to questions about how and who can register the birth of a child and give the child its first name, who decides the surname the child should take and whether the names given can be changed by re-registration or otherwise. This edition provides up-to-date provisions of all the relevant statutory material and case law which in particular applies to the issue of changing a child's name when conflict arises between the parents or those with parental responsibility for the child, the biological parents and others. Change of Name: The Law and Practice is an accessible guide to this sometimes tricky area of law and includes a range of precedents that will prove invaluable to the busy practitioner.
Download or read book In the Name of Justice written by Weifang He and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the issues presented by China’s ongoing economic and sociopolitical transformation, none may ultimately prove as consequential as the development of the Chinese legal system. Even as public demand for the rule of law grows, the Chinese Communist Party still interferes in legal affairs and continues in its harsh treatment of human rights lawyers and activists. Both the frequent occurrences of social unrest in recent years and the growing tension between China’s various interest groups underline the urgency of developing a sound and sustainable legal system. As one of China’s most influential law professors, He Weifang has been at the forefront of the country’s treacherous path toward justice and judicial independence for over a decade. Among his many remarkable endeavors was a successful petition in 2003 that abolished China’s controversial regulations permitting the internment and deportation of urban “vagrants,” bringing to an end two decades of legal discrimination against migrant workers. His bold remarks at the famous New Western Hills Symposium in 2006, including his assertion that “China’s party-state structure violates the PRC Constitution,” are considered a watershed moment in the century-long movement for a constitutional China. With In the Name of Justice, He presents his critical assessment of the state of Chinese legal reform. In addition to a selection of his academic writings, this unique book also includes many of He Weifang’s public speeches, media interviews, and open letters, providing additional insight into his dual roles as thinker and practitioner in the Chinese legal world. Among the topics covered are judicial independence, judicial review, legal education, capital punishment, and the legal protection of free speech and human rights. The volume also offers a historical review of the evolution of Chinese traditional legal thought, enhanced by cross-country comparisons. A proponent of reform rather than revolution, He believes only true constitutionalism can guarantee social justice and enduring stability for China. "He Weifang has argued for two decades that rule of law, however inconvenient at times to some of those who govern, must be embraced because it is ultimately the most reliable protector of the interests of the country, of the average citizen, and, in fact, even of those who govern."—from the Foreword by John L. Thornton, chairman, Brookings Institution Board of Trustees and Professor and Director of Global Leadership at Tsinghua University "What struck me—and shocked me as a foreign visitor—was not only that the entire discussion was explicitly critical of the Chinese Communist Party for its resistance to any meaningful judicial reform, but also that the atmosphere was calm, reasonable, and marked by a sense of humor and sophistication in the expression of ideas."—from the Introduction by Cheng Li, director of research and senior fellow at the John L. Thornton China Center at Brookings
