Full text
Abstract:
This chapter illustrates the treaty modifying potential of subsequent practice and customary law by means of a ‘repertoire’ of examples of practice spanning a wide range of legal fields, with a focus on major treaty regimes such as the UN Charter and the LOSC, and examples drawn from both within and outside the dispute settlement context, as well as within and outside the context of international organizations. The chapter systematically explores the modifying potential of subsequent practice in different contexts, facilitating identification and analysis of analogous cases. It combines and builds upon the analysis in the preceding chapters in order to derive—with the focus on international practice as such—guidelines that provide future reference points to better understand the modifying potential of subsequent practice, and examine the way in which modifications have been dealt with in the past, by dispute settlement bodies in particular.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter surveys the degree of recognition of the process of treaty modification by subsequent practice in the case law and doctrine. The analysis begins with the original ILC provision on treaty modification by subsequent practice ultimately excluded from the Vienna Convention. The focus then turns to analysing the validity, nature, and scope of the process of modification by subsequent practice, also in relation to formal amendment and a treaty’s object and purpose. Next, the chapter considers the difficult exercise of identifying modification by subsequent practice as distinguished from interpretation. Finally, the chapter explores how crucial factors such as the type of treaty regime and provision can impact the modifying process, and how alternative adaptation mechanisms can reduce the scope or need for recourse to modification. It is shown that subsequent practice can—under carefully defined conditions—alter, supplement, and terminate treaty provisions or even entire treaty frameworks.

Abstract:
The chapter describes the dataset: the independent variables (presidential-election rule—runoff versus plurality—as well as years of runoff and years of plurality) and the dependent variables: levels of democracy, as measured in the Freedom House and Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) indices as well as voter turnout. The chapter discusses the countries in the dataset (all Latin American countries except Bolivia) and the years in the dataset (1990–2016, with the exception of a few countries in which the beginning of the third wave was subsequent to 1990). The chapter graphs trends in Freedom House scores, V-Dem scores, and voter turnout between 1990 and 2016. It reports the regression analysis; runoff was positively related to Freedom House and V-Dem scores at the .05 level. Years of plurality was significant to Freedom House scores at the .01 level and to V-Dem almost at the .01 level.

The chapter considers financial law in relation to financial activity as a whole, and within each segment of Hong Kong’s markets. Hong Kong has been a port of trade since the mid-nineteenth century and subsequent centre of commerce. However, only recently has it developed as a major financial centre. It is known for its unusual institutional foundations, the nature of which are analysed and contrasted at intervals in this book with those of other sophisticated financial hubs.

Abstract:
This first, theoretical chapter discusses philosophical, historical, anthropological, and literary modes of attending to temporal structures. From Aristotle to phenomenology, from Koselleck to Evans-Pritchard, the discussion of theoretical models of temporality lays the groundwork for the analyses that follow in the remaining chapters. An examination of distinctions, such as between the circle and the arrow or between duration and instantaneity, sketches out the analytical apparatus that will be brought to bear in subsequent chapters. Within this theoretical framework, six temporal fields are distinguished whose consideration shapes the analysis of different aspects of the blues. Framed by a discussion of Willie Brown’s “Future Blues,” the theoretical chapter orients the focus toward the delineation of a complex understanding of the present in the blues.

Abstract:
In 1956, in a letter to Aldous Huxley, the British psychiatrist Humphry Osmond coined the term “psychedelic.” This chapter provides an analysis of the events that led up to Huxley’s psychedelic epiphany under the influence of mescaline, including Albert Hofmann’s discovery of LSD and subsequent psychedelic research. Particular attention is given to Huxley’s interpretation of the psychedelic state. This is important because Huxley was a catalytic figure at an important moment in the postwar Western world and his ideas had a formative influence on the culture of the 1960s. There is also analysis of R. C. Zaehner’s strident critique of Huxley’s thesis.

Chapter 2 examines international humanitarian law treaties. Using classical treaty interpretation methods, it establishes what degree of organization is required from a non-state armed group to become ‘Party to the conflict’ under article 3 common to the four Geneva Conventions, or an ‘organized armed group’ under article 1(1) of the Additional Protocol II or under the ICC Statute. Chapter 2 also analyses the travaux préparatoires of the different treaties, subsequent practice, and engages with the main doctrinal debates surrounding these questions. By subjecting the three treaties to thorough analysis, the chapter presents concise interpretations of the relevant organizational requirements, and compares the different thresholds. It also identifies and addresses under-researched questions, such as whether the organization criterion under international humanitarian law requires the capacity to implement the entirety of the applicable law.

The chapter introduces the justice framework that underpins analysis in later chapters of the book. The Aristotelian origin of the corrective/distributive justice dichotomy is presented. The chapter then presents the two justice paradigms in more detail, paying attention to key developments and premises that have emerged in the evolution of each. It charts key corrective justice developments from its fault-motivated origins to compensation-motivated reconceptualization. It also describes distributive justice’s origins in notions of communal merit and its slow evolution in embracing broader standards of generosity and equality. The chapter concludes by highlighting the relevance of each to the subsequent contextual analysis.

Full text
Abstract:
Femininity resides at the heart of feminist debates regarding sex, gender and sexuality. As such, this chapter engages with a plethora of ways in which femininity has been defined, resisted, challenged and critiqued in contemporary short story narratives. Space, and a woman’s right to occupy space, provides the opening point of analysis through a reading of the narratives of Byatt and Tremain. The second section shifts to the notion of ‘behaving appropriately’ and examines the ways in which a selection of short stories depict and reflexively critique femininity in order to make visible and problematize societal expectations of women. Through these discussions, the female body emerges as an important motif and this is an image that will be drawn upon across the subsequent chapters. Finally, the discussion illuminates the ways in which femininity is often understood through association with a young and white female body. Subsequently, the closing section pays attention to narratives which foreground bodies “other” to this normative model and asks how this challenges the concept of femininity and, in turn, what this can tell us about contemporary feminisms.

Abstract:
The need for any doctor to comprehend, assimilate, analyse, and form an opinion on data cannot be overestimated. This chapter examines the presentation and handling of such data and its subsequent statistical analysis. It covers the organization and description of data, measures of central tendency such as mean, median, and mode, measures of dispersion (standard deviation), and the problems of missing data. Theoretical distributions, such as the Gaussian distribution, are examined and the possibility of data transformation discussed. Inferential statistics are used as a means of comparing groups, and the rationale and use of parametric and non-parametric tests and confidence intervals is outlined. The analysis of categorical variables using the chi-squared test and assessing the value of diagnostic tests using sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, and a likelihood ratio are discussed. Measures of association are covered, namely linear regression, as is time-to-event analysis using the Kaplan–Meier method. Finally, the chapter discusses the statistical analysis used when comparing clinical measurements—the Bland and Altman method. Illustrative examples, relevant to the practice of anaesthesia, are used throughout and it is hoped that this will provide the reader with an outline of the methodologies employed and encourage further reading where necessary.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter frames the subsequent analyses with a vignette of a congressional debate between urban and rural constituencies. In this exchange, city politician par excellence Richard J. Daley articulates the priorities of cities and explains their pursuit of allies, while rural representatives cite the formidable unity of urban legislators as a reason for maintaining cities’ historic underrepresentation. But the very premise of this rural position—that cities are sites of political unity—demands scrutiny. After all, cities are the sites of all kinds of continual and recurrent contention, both violent and subtle. From where did the political unity of urban representation, constructed from deeply divided “pre-political” building blocks, come? This is the key question of the book. The chapter also describes the original data gathered for the project and situates the analysis within the study of the effects of local institutions on national politics.

Full text
Abstract:
The Western state system is a unique historical entity that has survived in various forms for almost four hundred years. After independence, postcolonial societies were eager to join this system. States can offer protection to their citizens, but they can also be perpetrators of human rights violations and economic injustices. Feminists claim that in order to fully understand the state in its various manifestations, it is necessary to understand its gendered dynamics. This chapter considers the various ways in which states are gendered. Authors in the volume offer analyses of many forms of states—liberal, postcolonial, and religious—using a variety of methodological perspectives. They demonstrate how gender analysis is necessary for understanding how the state can act both as a buffer against the international system and also as a perpetrator of political, social, and economic inequalities. The conclusion offers a brief overview of each of the subsequent chapters.

Abstract:
This chapter demonstrates how big data and computation can be used to identify and track recurrent themes as the products of external influence. It first considers the limitations of the Google Ngram Viewer as a tool for tracing thematic trends over time before turning to Douglas Biber's Corpus Linguistics: Investigating Language Structure and Use, a primer on various factors complicating word-focused text analysis and the subsequent conclusions one might draw regarding word meanings. It then discusses the results of the author's application of latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) to a corpus of 3,346 nineteenth-century novels using the open-source MALLET (MAchine Learning for LanguagE Toolkit), a software package for topic modeling. It also explains the different types of analyses performed by the author, including text segmentation, word chunking, and author nationality, gender and time-themes relationship analyses. The thematic data from the LDA model reveal the degree to which author nationality, author gender, and date of publication could be predicted by the thematic signals expressed in the nineteenth-century novels corpus.

This chapter analyzes the main topics and questions about offender mobility and crime location choice in terms of individual motivations, resources, constraints, and decisions. It begins with a brief overview of the four main frameworks that have been used to theorize offender mobility and crime location choice. This is followed by a characterization of general human mobility as a series of cyclical movements between a limited set of anchor points, and a review of two research initiatives that collected detailed spatial and temporal information on offender mobility. The subsequent section addresses the extent to which offenders plan and prepare their crimes. The chapter also discusses two core elements in crime pattern theory, namely the facilities that attract offenders and offenses (crime generators and attractors) and awareness space. The final section discusses the spatial unit of analysis in offender mobility and location choice.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter explores the role of the jury, including how long it deliberated before arriving at a decision that could result in an execution. It analyses any subsequent actions that attempted to soften a guilty verdict’s impact, such as the addition of a rider recommending mercy. The judge could steer the jury in a particular direction through his conduct of the trial, his attitude to counsel, the tenor and frequency of his interventions, and his summing up, but once a verdict of guilty to murder was returned, his only option was to impose a death sentence. Judges had an opportunity to influence the government’s decision by communicating a written view when invited to do so. The contents of these missives, supplemented with contemporary newspaper accounts, inform the analysis. Whether there were any ‘hanging judges’ is reviewed, along with the extent to which female murderers benefited from a mixture of squeamishness, chivalry, paternalism, and precedent.

Full text
Abstract:
It is generally known that gerunds can have a null subject (NS) that takes the preceding clause as its antecedent. Given certain restrictions independently argued for in the literature, the NS in question cannot be pro, neither can it be maintained that such gerunds have the status of relative clauses. Therefore, the subject in question must be analysed as PRO, which entails that the theoretical status of such a category must be recognized in a theory of syntax. Regardless of whether the case of Clausal Control is to be understood as Non Obligatory Control or Obligatory Control, the data present a serious problem for Hornstein’s (1999) reductionist approach to Control and subsequent work in the same spirit. If the phenomenon of Clausal Control is an instance of Obligatory Control, an analysis formulated in terms of A-binding is a feasible alternative as discussed here.

Section 1.3 goes on to clarify a number of preliminary caveats, definitions, and assumptions, which form the basis of the analysis in the following chapters. First and foremost, Section 1.3 presents the book’s understanding of the term ‘individuals’, the relationship between international law and domestic law, and the distinction between primary and secondary rules. Lastly, Section 1.4 provides the reader with a guide to the subsequent chapters.

This chapter argues that Fassin’s analysis should be expanded in three ways. First, Fassin should take greater account of how the unlawful state violence he rightly deplores is nonetheless frequently produced in response to violent criminal acts. Losing sight of the underlying problem of criminal violence in poor and marginal communities can make it harder to see how reform might be possible, by reducing the problem to one of arbitrary labeling (and subsequent punishment) of certain kinds of conduct. Second, while Fassin notes the connections between vulnerability to state violence and poverty, it would be worth paying more attention to the way economic inequality dehumanizes certain subjects and makes them more vulnerable objects of state abuse. Social analysis should be humanizing, in response. Third, Fassin should express positive value commitments to those latent in his critique as a guide to reform.

Abstract:
This chapter turns to the understanding of metaphor in the school of grammatical analysis, focusing on Bhartṛhari’s Vākyapadīya (VP), along with its commentaries, and examining its relevance to later Buddhist formulations on the topic. The discussion focuses on Bhaṛthari’s argument for the figurative existence of all the referents of words, as well as his analogy between metaphor and perceptual illusion. It argues that Bhartṛhari lays the foundation for a sophisticated, pragmatic account of both linguistic and perceptual meanings that allow a relationship of correspondence between language and phenomena—without assuming externalism. This perspective is shown to provide important context for the understanding of subsequent Yogācāra arguments about metaphor.

Abstract:
Palliative sedation refers to lowering a patient’s level of consciousness so that she no longer suffers from intolerable and refractory symptoms. Some forms of palliative sedation are ethically uncontroversial, such as emergency or respite sedation. Continuous sedation to unconsciousness (CSU) is controversial in that a patient in such a state is unable to eat or drink and may not be able to protect her airway. Ethically relevant considerations include the inability to participate in subsequent decision-making, the uncertain quality of an unconscious life, and the impact on life expectancy (which is often misunderstood). Special cases of CSU for existential distress and in children demand in-depth analysis.

Abstract:
Longitudinal or panel surveys, in which the same individuals are interviewed repeatedly over time, are increasingly common in the social sciences. The benefit of such surveys is that they track the same respondents so that researchers can measure individual-level change over time, offering greater causal leverage than cross-sectional surveys. Panel surveys share the challenges of other surveys while also facing several unique issues in design, implementation, and analysis. This chapter considers three such challenges: (1) the tension between continuity and innovation in the questionnaire design; (2) panel attrition, whereby some individuals who complete the first wave of the survey fail to participate in subsequent waves; and (3) specific types of measurement error—panel conditioning and seam bias. It includes an overview of these issues and their implications for data quality and outlines approaches for diagnosing and correcting for these issues in the design and analysis of panel surveys.
