ACTUAL MALICE IN THE INTER- AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS EDWARD CARTER* The Inter-American Court of Human Rights decided four cases in recent years that represent a positive step for freedom of expression in nations that belong to the Organization of American States. In 2004 and again in 2008, the court stopped short of adopting a standard that would require proof of actual malice in criminal defamation cases brought by public officials. In 2009, however, the court seemed to adopt the actual malice rule without calling it that. The court’s progress toward actual malice is chronicled in this article. The article concludes that the court’s decision not to explicitly use the phrase “actual malice” may be a positive development for freedom of expression in the Americas. Since its inception in 1979, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, based in San José, Costa Rica, has moved to protect freedom of expression under the American Convention on Human Rights.

  • Potencialidad Del Festival “Latinflex”- Informe De Datos
    Potencialidad del festival “LatinFlex”- Informe de datos. Dirigido a la junta directiva de “CashFlow” Paula De Corral y Vera Benechi En el presente informe se buscará demostrar la potencialidad del festival aquí presentado, denominado “Latinflex”, a la junta directiva de la productora. Para lograr llevar esto a cabo, expondremos datos fácticos que serán nuestro sustento, y que posteriormente van a ser procesados y analizados, con el fin de probar, también, la rentabilidad del mismo festival. Consumos musicales Latinflex fue creado previendo su realización en territorio argentino y chileno, debido a que ambos, al tratarse de países limítrofes, comparten diversos gustos en cuanto a la música. Además, el recital busca reforzar el sentimiento generado por pertenecer a la comunidad latina, el cual es inherente a todo el área de América latina, que es la zona dentro de la cual se encuentran estos países. Debido a ello, nos pareció preciso indagar en temáticas relativas a los consumos musicales y la asistencia a recitales de ambos países. ● Consumo musical argentino: Teniendo en cuenta el registro de índices de consumo culturales de la última década en Argentina, fue notorio el hecho de que la música es un pilar fundamental en la cultura nacional; podemos asumir que es la moda de consumos culturales ya que casi un 93% de la población escucha música y, de ese total, el 88,3% lo hace diariamente o, en su defecto, casi todos los días. En base a los datos recolectados, podemos observar que la música comprende un gran mercado dentro de la Argentina. En este gráfico vamos a poder observar el consumo cultural de música escuchada por argentinos en en 2017.

Disposal of this script copy does not alter any of the restrictions set forth above. WRITER’S GUIDE 2004 Season 3 INTRODUCTION A few to-dos before you come in to pitch. 1. Watch the pilot. 2. Read the book by Stephen King. 3. Watch the episode “Destiny”, our first season cliffhanger. 4. Watch Frank Capra’s Meet John Doe. 5. Watch Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ. Some don’ts: 1. Although Johnny should help someone in most every story, we don’t want this to become “Touched by an Angel”. We must find interesting, unique and fresh ways to tell stories. No preaching please. Find the unexpected twist. 2. Don’t pitch story arcs that run multiple episodes. What we need from you are self-contained stories. 3. We do not want to hear any pitches based on previously seen material -- whether film or television. Those kinds of story ideas occur to everybody -- including The Dead Zone staff. Johnny Smith is a fresh and unusual character, never before seen on television. We want fresh and unusual story concepts that likewise have not been seen on television. If it can be said of an idea "Star Trek did that" -- or "Buffy" or "The X-Files" or "Twilight Zone" -- then that is not an idea you should pitch.

    Journal of Religion & Film Volume 13 Issue 2 October 2009 Article 5 October 2009 God in the Details: The Cleansing of the Temple in Four Jesus Films David Landry University of St. Thomas, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf Recommended Citation Landry, David (2009) "God in the Details: The Cleansing of the Temple in Four Jesus Films," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 13 : Iss. 2 , Article 5.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. God in the Details: The Cleansing of the Temple in Four Jesus Films Abstract An effective technique for teaching religion/theology students the virtues of "close reading" of films and the various techniques by which filmmakers communicate meaning to their audiences involves the comparison of the same biblical scene in different filmed versions of the life of Jesus. Students can learn to appreciate the significance of the ariousv theological and aesthetic choices a particular Jesus film represents by becoming aware of the very different choices made by the makers of other Jesus films. The scene used to illustrate this technique in this paper is the cleansing of the Temple, and the films whose portrayal of this scene are analyzed are The Last Temptation of Christ (1988), The King of Kings (1927), Jesus Christ Superstar (1973), and Jesus of Montreal (1989).
