He extrapolated his ideas of legitimate sovereign power to international affairs, concluding that such affairs ought to be determined by forms respecting of the rights of all and that the common good of the world should take precedence before the good of any single state. A theory in conceptual jurisprudence will explicate the content of each concept and locate them among a general conceptual framework that guides both our linguistic practices regarding the relevant concept-words and our legal practices themselves. That is to say, the analysis of the concept identifies those properties that explain why something is a bachelor in the following sense: the instantiation of the properties of being unmarried, adult, and male constitute anything that instantiates them as a bachelor.

Shereen Kessrwan added it Feb 05, As Hart cautioned, conceptual analysis may begin from words, but it is important to realize that an adequate explication of a concept will include truths that go far beyond the conventions that establish the core meanings of those words. The foundations of law are accessible through reason, and it is from these laws of nature that human laws gain whatever force they have. Consider, for example, the dispute between Dworkin and Hart on the issue of judicial discretion. Tsinghua China Law Review. He emphasised that the natural law must meet certain formal requirements such as being impartial and publicly knowable. This is Rawls's famous Jurisprudence (Legal Philosophy) in a Nutshell 1st edition principle".

  • Homily at the Requiem Mass for Fr. Brocard Sewell, O.Carm. (April 2000)
    Homily at the Requiem Mass for Fr. Brocard Sewell, O.Carm. (April 2000) Portrait of Brocard Sewell by Jane Percival When someone dies, and especially when that person is as well known as Fr. Brocard Sewell, there is a time for writing obituaries (and we have seen a series of these published on Fr. Brocard during the past week), and, possibly some time in the future, there will be a moment for a scholarly evaluation of Fr. Brocard’s contribution to literature. Now, at the celebration of this funeral Mass, it is time to rejoice at Fr. Brocard’s long life among us, to feel humbled by his love for the God to whom he dedicated his life, and grateful for the many ways in which his kindness and generosity blessed those who were privileged to know him. Rejoice is a right and proper word here, amidst our sadness at losing Brocard’s company, because for those of us who share his faith, his passing is a final movement towards the God he served so well. That is not to say that Brocard ever found his long journey of faith simple or easy. He started life as an Anglican and was nourished in the strong Church of England atmosphere that he found at Cheltenham and Weymouth Colleges. However, after leaving school, it was not long before he sought his spiritual home in the Roman Catholic tradition. In this, he followed in the footsteps of some of his literary heroes, notably G. K. Chesterton. However, Brocard was never a person to settle down and meekly accept opinions from others, so throughout his life he frequently found himself at odds with his fellow Catholics and with the Church authorities.

THE JOURNAL OF AIR LAW Volume III JULY, 1932 Number 3 ADJUSTING THE CONFLICTING INTERESTS OF LANDOWNER AND AVIATOR IN ANGLO-AMERICAN LAW EDWARD C. SWEENEY* I. THE PROBLEM Aviation has developed to a point where it now assumes a considerable economic, social and military importance. But, in establishing itself, it has given rise to important legal problems associated with the conflicting interests of landowner and aviator. The question is no longer: shall the aviator be permitted to fly above the land of another, but is, instead: how shall flying activi- ties be conducted so as to be least harmful, if harmful at all, to the owner of the land. At the outset, it is necessary to state and clarify the problems involved in this conflict of interest. While the settlement of the various questions concerned with trespass, nuisance, liability, etc., can be settled only by the courts, still, it is important that there be a clear understanding of the interests involved and the extent to which they should be protected.

  • From Decadent Diabolist to Roman Catholic Demonologist: Some Biographical Curiosities from Montague Summers’ Black Folio
    From Decadent Diabolist to Roman Catholic Demonologist: Some Biographical Curiosities from Montague Summers’ Black Folio Bernard Doherty Introduction The history and practice of black magic, witchcraft, and Satanism have long held a deep fascination in British—and indeed international—popular culture. Beginning with the gothic literature of the eighteenth century, through to the nineteenth century occult revival and Victorian “penny dreadful,” and then into twentieth century pulp fiction, tales of the supernatural involving maleficent magic have been authored some of Britain’s most popular—if not always critically acclaimed—writers including, among others M. R. James, Arthur Machen, William Somerset Maugham, Agatha Christie, Charles Williams, and Dennis Wheatley. These writers, as well as various other short story writers, novelists, and journalists, have all played an important role in shaping, recording, and reflecting popular beliefs about these topics. Indeed, not a few occult practitioners, most notably Aleister Crowley, Dion Fortune, Gerald Gardner, and Doreen Valiente, even turned their hands to writing popular occult fiction. Despite this, the frequent blurring of the often porous boundary between actual occult practices and groups, and the imagined worlds of the purveyors of popular and literary fiction, has been seldom explored outside of highly specialised academic literature dedicated to the history of gothic or weird fiction and the burgeoning study of what has come to be called Western Esotericism.1 Bernard Doherty is a lecturer in the School of Theology at Charles Sturt University. 1 See, for example, Nick Freeman, ‘The Black Magic Bogeyman 1908–1935’, in The Occult Imagination in Britain, 1875–1947, ed.

  • Dissenting Opinion of Judge Eboe-Osuji
    ICC-01/09-02/11-863-Anx 26-11-2013 1/79 EC T Dissenting Opinion of Judge Eboe-Osuji 1. I have read with care the joint decision of Judge Ozaki and Judge Fremr 'reconsidering' the Majority decision that Judge Fremr and I had issued in the matter of the Defence request for conditional excusai from continuous presence at trial. The good faith of my colleagues is not in doubt, hi particular, I am very certain that my very good and leamed friend, Judge Fremr, with whom I authored the Majority decision now being 'reconsidered', is motivated by nothing less than the most impeccable of honourable intentions. Nevertheless, for the reasons explained in this opinion, I regret my inability to agree with their decision, both on the procedure and as to the substance. [I regret, too, my inability to express my opinion with comparable brevity. More presses to be said in solitary dissent.] OVERVffiW 2. hi view of its length, I divide this opinion into five parts. Part I discusses why the decision of the Majority of the Trial Chamber is unsuitable for reconsideration. The better approach, in my view, is to seise the Appeals Chamber of the Kenyatta appeal, in order to give them an opportunity to resolve certain questions arising from their decision in the Ruto case, particularly the questions that I discuss in parts II, III, IV and V. 3. Part II lays out the thought that, in the construction of legal texts, the incidence of the auxiliary verb 'shall' has not always been accepted as signifying a mandatory outcome that eliminates further judicial inquiry as to the import of the given provision.

  • Legal and Market Uncertainty in Market-Based Instruments: the Case of the Eu Ets
    DARI-VAN ZEBEN FOR PRINTER.DOC 8/31/2012 5:07:29 PM ARTICLES LEGAL AND MARKET UNCERTAINTY IN MARKET-BASED INSTRUMENTS: THE CASE OF THE EU ETS * ** GIUSEPPE DARI-MATTIACCI & JOSEPHINE VAN ZEBEN Parties in litigation may experience legal uncertainty, which can spread into markets. If so, there are relevant and pervasive consequences for unrelated third parties. We argue that certain types of legal remedies cause the transformation from legal uncertainty into “market uncertainty.” This problem is particularly important for “artificial markets,” such as those created by the legislator for the purposes of market-based regulation, e.g., the European Union Emission Trading System (“EU ETS”). Specifically, market uncertainty is a likely consequence of the use of restitutio in integrum (a property-rule remedy) as opposed to the use of damages (a liability-rule remedy). Recent litigation within the EU ETS provides a clear example of both the mechanisms of transmission of legal uncertainty to the market and of its causes. We identify the costs of letting legal uncertainty turn into market uncertainty and examine possible solutions to this problem. * Professor of Law and Economics, Amsterdam Center for Law and Economics, University of Amsterdam. ** Hauser Global Research Fellow, New York University School of Law, 2010-2011; PhD candidate, Amsterdam Center for Law and Economics and Center for Environmental Law, University of Amsterdam.

  • Right of Privacy and Restraints on Abortion Under the "Undue Burden" Test: a Jurisprudential Comparison of Planned Parenthood V
    The Right of Privacy and Restraints on Abortion under the "Undue Burden" Test: A Jurisprudential Comparison of Planned Parenthood v. Casey with European Practice and Italian Law by Charles Stanley Ross* I. INTRODUCTION The most recent Supreme Court decision on state regulation of abortion continues a particularly American line of precedent and rea- soning-welcome to some, indefensible to others-in upholding a wom- an's right to choose an abortion before fetal viability. At the same time the Court recognized that a state may impose restrictions on the in- terruption of pregnancy, so long as these restraints do not impose an "undue burden" on the exercise of the constitutionally defended right.' The Court's 5-4 decision contains a withering dissent wherein the Chief Justice and three colleagues deny the existence of a constitutional right to an abortion and argue that a state legislature has total dominion over restraints on abortion procedures. Justice Scalia's additional dissent further gores the majority opinion by lamenting the impossibility of applying the "undue burden" test associated with the reasoning, in past decisions and this one, of Justice O'Connor.2 The language of the Court's opinion-from the majority's proc- lamation of the right to abortion as a "fundamental liberty" protected by the Constitution to the ridicule Scalia heaps on the "undue burden" test, 3 as well as Justice Blackmun's lament that he is eighty-three years old and cannot much longer hold back the forces of darkness that were one vote away from gaining their will in this decision 4-reveals a court * Associate Professor, Department of English, Purdue University & J.D.
