(Vijender Kumar) Vice-Chancellor iii iv EDITORIAL NOTE This maiden issue of NLUN CLPR contains articles and notes on various contemporary issues, ranging across national and international scenarios. It is an eclectic mixture of opinions offering the readers an insight into both social and legal issues. This is an integrative issue containing articles concerning international law, constitutional law, family law, corporate and insolvency law, and legal theory. We hope that these pieces benefit the readers by providing a fresh perspective on issues and a starting point for further research. In ‘Extinguishing Hindu Joint Family and Mitakshara Coparcenary: A Critique’, Prof. (Dr.) Vijender Kumar and Vidhi Singh examine the concepts of the Mitakshara Coparcenary system and the Hindu Joint Family in the light of rules and law relating to testamentary and intestate succession, analysing Uttam v. Saubhag Singh (2016), and highlighting the various fallacies in the judgment. In ‘Imminence of a Cyber Attack vis-à-vis Anticipatory Self-Defence’, Chitresh Baheti analyses the technological aspects of theories in international law in determining the ‘imminence’ of cyber-attacks with respect to the cyber weapons used, and their utility in helping states in ascertaining the difference between peace, lawful warfare or illegitimate warfare. In ‘Legal Truth of Rape in India and the Questions it raises’, Nikita Samarnath delves into the idea of a ‘legal truth’, and how it helps in raising questions on the rape policy in India. The author examines different categorisations of sexual offences created by legal definitions and the issues involved in rape policy, concluding the paper by highlighting the necessity of a synergy between the law and other social sciences, while dealing with rape policy in India. In ‘Reinforcing India’s Commitment to International Humanitarian Law- A Case for Ratification of Additional Protocols to Geneva Conventions’, Palada Dharma Teja and Rohitesh Tak explore the reasons for India’s non- accession to the Additional Protocols of 1977 to the Geneva Conventions of 1949, and advocate for India’s ratification to the Additional Protocols for better compliance with its humanitarian obligations. They conclude by enunciating several important reservations relating to the sovereignty of State Parties and political legitimacy of non-State actors. In ‘Puttaswamy: Privacy and Decisional Autonomy’, Sholab Arora explores the impact of Justice K.S. Puttaswamy (Retd.) v. Union of India on v various legislation governing decisional autonomy in India after it was declared an intrinsic part of the fundamental right to privacy under Article 21 of the Constitution of India by the Supreme Court.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from die document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an imagB on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

CONCLUSION 55 BIBLIOGRAPHY 59 iii CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION AND THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK During the last hundred and fifty years, the traditional joint family and the familistic rural framework have been undergoing a qualitative transformation. The basis of the rural family relation¬ ships is shifting from that of status to that of contract. The rule of custom is being replaced by the rule of law. The family is being transformed from a unit of production to a unit of consumption. The cementing bond of the family is being changed from consanguinity to conjugality. From a massive joint family, composed of members be- longinging to a number of generations, the family is increasingly shaping as tiny unit, composed of husband, wife and unmarried children.^- The object of this thesis is to show that the joint family system in India has been constantly in transition from its traditional form in which the behavior patterns were rigidly controlled by unwritten rules and public opinion, to the nuclear form where mutual affection among its members predominated. The family in its traditional form and the family in its nuclear form present two polar types.

  • Customs and Gender in the Context of Hindu Laws
    International Journal of Law and Legal Jurisprudence Studies :ISSN:2348-8212:Volume 4 Issue 2 86 CUSTOMS AND GENDER IN THE CONTEXT OF HINDU LAWS Dr. Paroma Sen1 Abstract There has been an influence of customs in the evolution of Hindu Laws. Hindu laws at times confronted, in other instances incorporated and in few cases overrode customary laws of different regions, however it could not in in any way change the caste based social prejudices. With the context of Haryana in the backdrop this article looks into the influence of customs in the region in the construction of gender identity and to what extent could Hindu Law influence the customs followed. Key words: customary laws, gender, hindu, dayabhaga, mitakshara, inheritance Hindu Law in the Pre-colonial period Origin of Hinduism has given rise to various interpretations. However, there could not be any denying that the consciousness of Hinduism as a religion among its followers arose in countering the identity of Muslims or Islamic presence in different parts of the country with the rise of the Sultanate followed by the Mughal rule. The word Hindu is a Persian term which was used to refer to the inhabitants across river Indus. This reference, points out a strong ethno-geographic2 connotation attached to the rise, development and continuance of Hinduism.The distinctions separating one religion from the followers of the other finally culminated into the partition of the country and eventual division of land based on the religion of its followers. Against this backdrop of the political invasion of the country and conflict among the religious groups, there was also the presence of laws influencing the social spheres of the family and community.

  • A Shift in Dharma
    A Shift in Dharma Changes in Conceptualisations of Faith Among Second-Generation Hindus in Oslo By Ram E. Gupta A thesis presented to the Department of Culture Studies, University of Oslo, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Cand.Philol. degree in History of Religion Autumn semester 2002 (Reprint Edition) 2 ABSTRACT This is a study of a Hindu community in diaspora. Based on analysis of fieldwork data that was collected among second-generation North Indian Hindus in the city of Oslo, the thesis identifies various tendencies among informants that are described as changes in their conceptualisation of religion. The thesis argues that these changes amount to a convergence with conceptualisations of religion that are common in their Norwegian host society. The way that informants think about religion, in other words, appears to be approaching the way that many Norwegians think about religion. One of the conclusions drawn from this observation is that although informants retain a clear sense of Hindu identity in terms of observable praxis and self-understanding, their concept of the category of religion displays structural similarities with concepts of religion found in Western European thought. The transition between different types of conceptualisation is analysed as a shift between the Hindu notion of dharma, and Western conceptualisations of religion, such they are found in e.g. the traditions of Protestantism, and which are influential in Norway. While discussing this shift, the Hindu notion of dharma is proposed as a yardstick for important aspects of conceptualisations of religion among Hindus. The justification for doing so is taken from the argument that the notion of dharma is a supplier of assumptions and premises for concepts of religion that are common among Hindus.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Articles by an authorized administrator of Alabama Law Scholarly Commons. Law & Social Inquiry Volume 38, Issue 1, 138-167, Winter 2013 Secularism in the Indian Context Deepa Das Acevedo Indian constitutionalframers sought to tie their new state to ideas of modernity and liberalism by creating a government that would ensure citizens' rights while also creating the conditions for democratic citizenship. Balancing these two goals has been particularly challenging with regard to religion, as exemplified by the emergence of a peculiarly Indian understanding of secularism which requires the nonestablishment of religion but not the separation of religion and state. Supporters argue that this brand of secularism is best suited to the particularsocial and historical circumstances of independent India. This article suggests that the desire to separatereligion and state is integral to any understanding of secularism and that, consequently, the Indian state neither is nor was meant to be secular. However, Indian secularists correctly identify the Indian state's distinctive approach to religion-state relations as appropriate to the Indian context and in keeping with India's constitutionalgoals.
