Download or read book Nulidad de la imputaci n written by Juan Marcelino Gonzalez Garcete and published by Ediciones Olejnik. This book was released on 2023-12-08 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Efectivamente una pluma prodigiosa, que plasma lo que la exagerada densidad intelectual poseen los autores, dice un enunciado popular que en la forma de tomar el pan se conoce al comensal, y efectivamente basta con leer las primeras líneas de esta sensacional obra para darnos cuenta la experiencia y sabiduría de los juristas que nos deleitan a los que amamos las Ciencias Penales. Amigo lector, en sus manos tiene una obra muy valiosa que entre múltiples razones dos ampliamente la recomiendan. Una primera razón es el sentido común y arte con la que los autores plasman en la obra la explicación del tema desarrollado, la temática es materia de programas de estudios oficiales en todo el continente, y con un lenguaje jurídico sencillo lleva al cabal entendimiento de lo planteado por los autores. La segunda razón es precisamente que el tema desarrollado por los autores es un tema de actualidad ante la llegada del nuevo procedimiento acusatorio con tendencia a la oralidad en todo el continente y que inclusive en algunos países ya es adversarial. Esta obra, redactada en un lenguaje sencillo, serio y formal debe ser sin duda un libro de cabecera para quienes desarrollen el tema de nulidades, entendiendo que en los diversos países de Iberoamérica dicha nulidad se reclama mediante diversos recursos y procedimientos que cada legislación establece". José Santiago Blanco Bárcena.
Download or read book Six Popes written by Hilary C. Franco and published by Humanix Books. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Monsignor Franco is known as an engaging storyteller of his impactful time in the Church. Read this book and you will see why.” — Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archdiocese of New York Six Popes: A Son of the Church Remembers is Monsignor Hilary C. Franco’s engaging memoir and a story only a son can tell, a son not only of the Catholic Church, but also of Italian immigrants. From Belmont, his Bronx neighborhood, Franco rose to work with the highest and most influential figures of the Roman Catholic Church. As a young man he attended Rome’s premier seminary, soon after becoming the special assistant to Archbishop Fulton Sheen. As a priest he would travel the world, and he recounts a harrowing experience in the Deep South in the early 1960s, his work at the Vatican Councils that redefined the Church, and his time posted at the Church’s diplomatic missions in Washington, D.C., and the United Nations. This most formidable churchman reveals his tales of intellectual, pastoral, and diplomatic service to the Catholic Church, enlivened by recollections of the fascinating people he came to know from U.S. presidents and foreign heads of state, to religious leaders like Padre Pio and Saint Mother Teresa. The title of his current role, Advisor at the Permanent Observer Mission of the Holy See to the United Nations, gives little hint of the drama of the times he recollects. Stories of this book’s six pontiffs that Franco served under — John XXIII, Paul VI, John Paul I, John Paul II, Benedict XVI, Francis — offer landmarks along Franco’s trek through the corridors of spiritual power in New York, Washington, D.C., and Rome. Six Popes: A Son of the Church Remembers is written from a unique eyewitness vantage on many of the events and movements that shaped our world and the Catholic Church. There is really no other book like it.

Download or read book Public Sector Performance Corruption and State Capture in a Globalized World written by Susan Rose-Ackerman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-14 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection examines the difficult task of reforming governments worldwide to meet citizens’ needs and aspirations. It advances constructive efforts to enhance public accountability while recognizing the complex ways in which corruption, greed, and state capture undermine the legitimacy and performance of government. The contributors are political scientists, lawyers, and economists who bring a cross-disciplinary approach to their chosen subjects. The first group of chapters deals with public sector performance, development, and public participation. Complementary pieces by a practitioner and a scholar confront the challenges of achieving reform in countries with difficult political environments and extensive poverty and inequality. The second group emphasizes the way corruption and state capture limit the accountability and effectiveness of governments in both developing and wealthy countries. The contributions consider the institutional roots of dysfunctional government and their links to the private sector. Taken together, the volume surveys a wide range of topics with theoretical arguments and empirical findings that provide insights into real-world problems and policymaking dilemmas. Inspired by Susan Rose-Ackerman’s fifty-year exploration of public policymaking, public law, and corruption, the collection will be an invaluable resource for researchers, academics and policy makers working in the areas of Public Law, Anticorruption, and Political-Economy.
Download or read book Contract Law in Spain written by Antoni Vaquer and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this practical analysis of the law of contracts in Spain covers every aspect of the subject – definition and classification of contracts, contractual liability, relation to the law of property, good faith, burden of proof, defects, penalty clauses, arbitration clauses, remedies in case of non-performance, damages, power of attorney, and much more. Lawyers who handle transnational contracts will appreciate the explanation of fundamental differences in terminology, application, and procedure from one legal system to another, as well as the international aspects of contract law. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes drafting considerations. An introduction in which contracts are defined and contrasted to torts, quasi-contracts, and property is followed by a discussion of the concepts of ‘consideration’ or ‘cause’ and other underlying principles of the formation of contract. Subsequent chapters cover the doctrines of ‘relative effect’, termination of contract, and remedies for non-performance. The second part of the book, recognizing the need to categorize an agreement as a specific contract in order to determine the rules which apply to it, describes the nature of agency, sale, lease, building contracts, and other types of contract. Facts are presented in such a way that readers who are unfamiliar with specific terms and concepts in varying contexts will fully grasp their meaning and significance. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for business and legal professionals alike. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Spain will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of comparative contract law.

Download or read book Terrorism International Case Law Reporter 2008 Volume I written by Michael Newton and published by . This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 865 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrorism: International Case Law Reporter is an annual collection of the most important cases in security law from around the world. Handpicked and introduced by internationally renowned terrorism scholar Michael Newton and by a distinguished board of experts from around the world, the cases in this series cover topics as diverse as human rights, immigration, freedom of speech, and organizational status. For scholars, students, and practitioners seeking an authoritative and comprehensive resource for research into security law jurisprudence, this unique series serves that specialized purpose like none other on the market. With the 2008 edition of Terrorism: International Case Law Reporter, Oxford introduces detailed headnotes to the series. Professor Michael Newton and his team have provided, for each case, a robust summary and a concise statement of the case's central issues and holding. This edition also adds new topics to the series' purview, including the contentious issue of what legal status enemy combatants possess in U.S. courts and the equally volatile issue of whether agents of a state may be held criminally liable for terrorism when carrying out official duties. General Editor Newton has also added Israel and the Middle East as necessary new regional topics for a series that covers terrorism-related jurisprudence worldwide. Indeed, many of the prominent cases in this year's edition come from non-U.S. courts, including an Argetinian case on state terrorism and crimes against humanity. That case, Velasco, appears in this edition in the only English translation available anywhere.
