INTRODUCTION Published in May 2007, U.S. application no. 20070122826 (Venter patent) describes a minimally operative genome of the bacterium Mycoplasma genitalium consisting of 381 genes, which the inventors believe to be essential for the survival of the bacterium in an environment containing all the necessary nutrients and free from stress.1 However, the team of inventors from the J. Craig Venter Institute is trying to accomplish something more than just the usual patenting of genes; they intend to create and patent the world’s first artificial organism. The team has already cleared two of the three major hurdles on its way to constructing this first synthetic organism. In January 2008, they announced completion of the second step, the laboratory synthesis of the entire 582,970 base pairs of the genome described in the patent above.2 What remains is the third and final step of inserting this human-made genome into a bacterial cell chassis and “booting up” the organism.3 Craig Venter and Hamilton Smith, lead researchers on the team have been discussing the creation of synthetic life since 1995, when their team published the first complete genome sequence of a living * © 2008 Michael Saunders.

The gender dimension has only featured recently as a topic and has mainly been discussed by feminist scholars and women’s rights activists.

  • Postmodern Hindu Law
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by CrossAsia-Repository Postmodern Hindu Law Dr. Werner Menski Abstract This study, based on indological and legal scholarship, explores to what extent Hindu law, as a conceptual entity and a legal system, is visibly and invisibly present in contemporary Indian law-making. It is found that, defying many death wishes and contradicting pronouncements of its demise, Hindu law is alive and well in various postmodern manifestations. Both at the conceptual level and within processes of official law-making and policy formulation, postmodern Hindu concepts and rules retain a powerful voice in how India, in the 21st century, is seeking to achieve social and economic justice for over a billion people. Rejecting the agenda of hindutva and its opponents as too narrow and politically motivated, the present study presents a holistic view of Hindu legal systems and concepts and their contemporary and future relevance. Chapter 1 The contemporary relevance of Hindu law Hindu law has defied many death wishes, copious predictions of its gradual demise and almost complete displacement (e. g. Galanter 1972; 1989), and even proclamations of its death (Derrett 1978). It holds its position as a major legal system of the world, often despised and largely unrecognised, but massively present in the world of the new millennium. At least 800 million people, roughly a seventh of the world citizenry, remain governed by Hindu law in one form or another. Despite its numerous traditional elements, Hindu law today must be seen as a postmodern phenomenon, displaying its much-noted internal dynamism and perennial capacity for flexibility and re-alignment in conjunction with the societies to and in which it applies.

  • Personal Law and Property Rights of Hindu Woman in India
    Volume 6 Issue 1 April 2018 Kathmandu School of Law Review Personal Law and Property Rights of Hindu Woman in India - The Need for Codifi cation Sindhu Thulaseedharan* Abstract In India, the familial relations of any citizen, including inheritance, are governed by law related to his or her religion, which came to be known as personal law. The property rights of Hindu woman from the vedic age refl ected that daughter was given a share equal to that of a son, who in the later age of smritis ( traditional law) , came to inherit only in the absence of male issue. The nature of property of a Hindu woman, stridhanam (woman’s property) thus came to be distorted from absolute property right to ‘limited estate’ known as ‘woman’s estate’. That is, the property passed only to the next heirs of the last male owner of the female intestate. The legislations in the pre-independent India strengthened the position of Hindu woman. But the later laws limited her interest in property to the sense that she could alienate it for certain purposes only and the property possessed by her devolved on the heirs of her husband and not on her own heirs. The retention of testamentary power has further undermined gender-equality largely. Even at present, the Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005, allows existing property disputes to continue and does not affect rights that became vested prior to its implementation. Therefore, the codifi cation of personal law on succession becomes the need of the hour, since the patriarchal norms retained in the law have to be dropped.

  • Personal Laws: Undetermined Norms and Undetermined Concept?
    Liverpool Law Review (2019) 40:253–270 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10991-019-09227-x Personal Laws: Undetermined Norms and Undetermined Concept? Jean‑Louis Halpérin1 Published online: 7 August 2019 © Springer Nature B.V. 2019 Abstract Many Asian and African constitutional and statutory texts use the phrase personal laws in order to determine the rules applicable to family matters such a marriage, divorce, maintenance and in some countries inheritance. However, this term is extremely vague and often without a clear defnition in the legal texts. This paper tries to show the high degree of un-determination of the statutory references to per- sonal laws. This chaotic situation can be explained by historical and political factors. Nevertheless, the paper proposes to stipulate a conventional defnition of personal laws in order to facilitate the comparison between the Asian and African countries with a plurality of personal laws. Based on common features of these legal systems knowing a plurality of personal laws, such a defnition can be useful for practical as well as for theoretical purposes. Keywords Africa · Asia · Legal concept · Legal pluralism · Personal law Introduction Personal law is one of those technical terms used by jurists that common man might not immediately understand. To begin with, it is a legal concept, but also an abstrac- tion used, at the same time, by ofcial statements in constitutions or statutory laws and by opinions of legal writers. It is both a concept of the law and a concept of the science of law. As used in constitutional and statutory laws, the concept of the law is not defned and its various confgurations seem to be resistant to any unifed defni- tion as a concept of the science of law.

In one instance, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opportunistic pathogen, secretes a protein azurin on contact with cancer cells. Upon release, azurin enters preferentially to cancer cells and interferes in cancer cell growth through multiple mechanisms involving complex formation with various cellular proteins in cancer cells that promote cancer cell growth. Such complex formation then leads to loss of function of such cancer growth promoting proteins. Thus azurin is known to induce apoptosis in cancer cells, as well as interfere in rapid cancer cell growth, through stabilization of tumor suppressor protein p53. Azurin also forms complexes with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) and cell surface associated receptor tyrosine kinases such as EphB2 to inhibit angiogenesis and cell signaling in cancer cells to inhibit their growth. A chemically synthesized 28 amino acid fragment (Azurin 50-77), termed p28, has completed a phase I trial in 15 stage IV cancer patients with metastatic tumors that were resistant to all conventional drugs and these patients had a life expectancy of about 6 months.

    Anglo-Mohammedan and Anglo-Hindu Law 1 Anglo-Mohammedan and Anglo-Hindu Law- Revisiting Colonial Codification Shahnaz Huda* Introduction: Their respective personal religious laws govern family or private matters of Muslims, Hindus and of other communities in Bangladesh. Most of these laws continue to remain uncodified, although legislative enactment have, to a certain extent through the decades, reformed, amended or supplemented the personal laws of different communities. A great majority of such statutory codification relating to family matters was accomplished during the British rule of the sub-continent. These laws continue to dominate the personal legal regime of Bangladeshi Muslims, Hindus, and Buddhists who are also governed by Hindu Law in many respects. The present article discusses and critiques the legal initiatives, which the colonizers undertook by way of legislation. Although some of such laws have been repealed, most continue to remain important pieces of law. This is especially true in the case of Bangladesh but also applies to a greater or lesser extent to Pakistan and India. Brief History of colonial law making: Before the advent of the British i.e. under the Moguls, Mahomedan law and not Hindu law was the law of the land. The East India Company was granted restricted legislative powers first by Queen Elizabeth through the Charter of 1600, which set up the Company. The Company's powers remained confined to employees of the company in furtherance of their primary objective i.e. to carry on trade and business in India. Successive charters granted similar powers. In 1726 the Crown recognized the Company as a ruling power in respect of several towns, places and factories that were already within its control.1 The Charter of 1726 for the first time created a subordinate legislative authority in the three Presidency towns of Calcutta, Bombay and Madras.
