Law & Anthropology
Author: René KuppePublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004639217
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
The Law & Anthropology Yearbook brings together a collection of studies that discuss legal problems raised by cultural differences between people and the law to which they are subject. Volume 10 of Law & Anthropology includes eight studies that discuss various forms in which the rights of indigenous people are violated. Topics include: the way in which the seemingly neutral criminal justice system of Canada discriminates against aboriginal people; the fact that land rights issues of indigenous peoples cannot be separated from political rights; the conceptual differences between the human rights concepts underlying the modern international system, and the concepts behind human rights as these are understood in the Guatemalan Highlands; and the relationship between the rights of indigenous peoples and upcoming new standards of environmental law.
Rule of Law, Human Rights and Judicial Control of Power
Author: Rainer ArnoldPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319551868
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 444
Book Description
Judicial control of public power ensures a guarantee of the rule of law. This book addresses the scope and limits of judicial control at the national level, i.e. the control of public authorities, and at the supranational level, i.e. the control of States. It explores the risk of judicial review leading to judicial activism that can threaten the principle of the separation of powers or the legitimate exercise of state powers. It analyzes how national and supranational legal systems have embodied certain mechanisms, such as the principles of reasonableness, proportionality, deference and margin of appreciation, as well as the horizontal effects of human rights that help to determine how far a judge can go. Taking a theoretical and comparative view, the book first examines the conceptual bases of the various control systems and then studies the models, structural elements, and functions of the control instruments in selected countries and regions. It uses country and regional reports as the basis for the comparison of the convergences and divergences of the implementation of control in certain countries of Europe, Latin America, and Africa. The book’s theoretical reflections and comparative investigations provide answers to important questions, such as whether or not there are nascent universal principles concerning the control of public power, how strong the impact of particular legal traditions is, and to what extent international law concepts have had harmonizing and strengthening effects on internal public-power control.

Local government can be defined as a public entity acting as the sub-unit of a state or of a region, charged with the task of enforcing public policies. There have been many reforms of local government in recent years from the grassroots-led movement that took root in the 90’s to the overarching effects of globalization and decentralization. Local governments must adapt their practices in order to most effectively provide for their constituents. Theoretical Foundations and Discussions on the Reformation Process in Local Government addresses the effects of recent reforms in the political-administrative system of local governments and politics as well as future outlooks. It reviews the challenges, innovations, and lessons from local governments while providing theoretical perspectives on methods for positive reform. This book is a critical reference source for policy makers, government organizations, professionals, and actors in both local and international politics.

PROYECTO POLÍTICO LA SEXTA REPÚBLICA - Tomo II
Author: Natanael Méndez MatosPublisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1304482790
Category : Law
Languages : es
Pages : 372
Book Description
Resulta irónico pensar, que los académicos e historiadores dominicanos en su visión general sobre la historia de la vida republicana de la nación, solamente reconozcan los siguientes períodos históricos; a saber: a).- Primera República del 1844; b).- Segunda República del 1865; c).- Tercera República del 1924; y d).- Cuarta República del 1966 hasta nuestros días presentes.. Ignorar en los anales de la histórica de la nación dominicana, el proceso político de la reconstrucción de la vida republicana, es ignorar el resurgimiento de la vida republicana, que conocemos como la Cuarta República comprendido en el período 1962-1963. Por Tanto, el Proyecto Político la Sexta República, es la única oportunidad que tiene el pueblo soberano de conquistar y restablecer el ordenamiento jurídico y los derechos conculcados en la Constitución del año 1963, mediante la Reconstrucción de un proyecto Nación definido en el contrato social proclamado en la "Sexta República".

Legitimacy in European Administrative Law
Author: Dornburg Research Group on New Administrative Law. WorkshopPublisher: Trans Pacific Press
ISBN: 9789089520982
Category : Administrative law
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Administrative law has been the object of thorough reform in various European jurisdictions. This process of transformation has considerable impacts on administrative legal scholarship in the respective countries. Profound changes in administrative activity have established new forms of administrative institutions which raise issues of legitimacy. Besides the consensus that administrative law, administrative activities, and administrative institutions have to be legitimate, the concept of legitimacy with respect to a common European framework is more than ambiguous. An analysis of the concept of legitimacy in different national legal systems promises valuable results for a discussion on the European Union level. Although the respective jurisdictions have different starting points with respect to issues of legitimacy, common sources can be detected. This is necessary in shaping and analyzing administrative law in the EU. This book comprises the results of the third workshop of the Dornburg Research Group of New Administrative Law, which took place in Paris in October 2009. The Dornburg Research Group of New Administrative Law was founded at Dornburg Castle near Jena, Germany, in 2005. Its purpose is a long-term transnational exchange of ideas between administrative law scholars from European jurisdictions.
