Texto completoThe organizing principle of this dissertation is that Las Casas's most famous work, the Brevisima relacion , is primarily an intricately reasoned legal argument against the excesses of early Spanish colonialism rather than a fiery polemical diatribe by the "first human rights activist." Contrary to such anachronistic (though enduringly popular) characterization, this study employs a historical perspective to view this influential text as belonging to the genres of the early modern juridical tradition. Accordingly, this investigation begins by examining the historical matrix of fifteenth-century and early sixteenth-century Spain to properly contextualize Las Casas's early life and certain initial colonial institutions of the Spanish Indies. Similarly, his juridical expertise is firmly rooted in an explication of his contemporaneous formation in canon law and theology. From these foundational strands of his life and work, his maturing juridical voice spoke most decisively in certain of the major debates among Spanish jurists, theologians, and politicians--as well as in the Brevísima relación --in the wake of the Iberian "discovery" of what was for all concerned a physical as well as philosophical "New World." The combined focus of subsequent chapters elucidates the fundamentally juridical dimensions of the text, beginning with the specific context accompanying its genesis in 1542 until its publication a decade later. The treatise's legal character as an official publication based on various evidentiary sources is further revealed by the text's triple function--to inform, to denounce, and to petition, which in turn corresponds to the genres of relaciones, denuncias , and peticiones of the civil juridical tradition. The Brevísima relación 's content unveils far more than this; the epistemological rationale and analytic framework are intimately linked to canonistic, Thomistic, and biblical genres of the ecclesial juridical tradition. Continuing this historical investigation, the concluding chapter demonstrates anew the fundamental grounding of Las Casas's approach in the vibrant first generations of juristic discourse of the so-called Spanish colonial era. His multifaceted juridical voice was distinctively encoded in a powerful melding of civil and ecclesial legal traditions. This dissertation intends to communicate this voice intelligibly with the proper accents of the past.

Texto completoSiguiendo fuentes jurídicas americanas, sostengo que el uso del estándar de la persona razonable en derecho penal es inexacto e injusto y, por lo tanto, inconveniente para evaluar conducta humana sobre la base de tres argumentos que abordan las imperfecciones del estándar bajo análisis. Primero, este estándar es por definición abstracto, teórico y general y no refleja apropiadamente la percepción sensorial y cognitiva de la situación. Segundo, la tendencia en legislación y jurisprudencia americanas, en casos penales, por ejemplo, defensa propia, es el uso de un criterio híbrido, el cual consiste en la consideración de la creencia de la persona y la correspondencia de dicha creencia con lo que la persona razonable creería bajo las circunstancias, lo que es opuesto a un estándar puramente objetivo. Tercero, el estándar de la persona razonable impone una suerte de dictadura de la mayoría al perpetuar una cultura predominante sin considerar los puntos de vista de los grupos minoritarios.

Texto completoPh.D.
Lord Mansfield is typically remembered for his influence in common law and commercial law, and his decision in Somerset v. Stewart , which granted a slave, brought to England, habeas corpus to refuse his forced transportation out of that nation by his master. Both conditions allowed observers to praise him for what they viewed as very modern notions about economy and society (capitalism and anti-slavery, respectively). Mansfield's primary position as Chief Justice of King's Bench in England, which contributed most of the only published material from him, shielded him from any scrutiny about his wider influence in general British governance in the period of his public career, roughly 1740-1790. Throughout his career, Mansfield played a large role in the general government of the British Empire. Beginning with his role as Solicitor General in 1742 and continuing after he became Chief Justice in 1756, Mansfield interacted and advised the highest members of the British ruling elite, including the monarch. Because the nature of British governance in the 18th Century was very porous, Mansfield partook in the exercise of legislative (through his seats in the House and Commons and Lords), executive (through a formal seat on the Privy Council and later in the King's Closet), and judicial (through his roles as Solicitor and Attorney General, Chief Justice of King's Bench, and temporary positions as Lord Chancellor) power practically simultaneously throughout his career. In these capacities, Mansfield contributed to imperial policy at a critical moment. He was a champion for the British Empire as the beacon of the most perfect society at that time - a perspective he developed through his education and experiences during the crucial formative years of the British nation. He channeled his support for Britain into a seemingly rigid dogma that saw any threat or challenge to British authority or culture as inherently illegitimate. In this regard, Mansfield favored British domination over the other imperial powers, and he immediately rejected the earliest complaints of the Americans over British rule. Because of the nature of his position within British governance, Mansfield's view remained constant in a government that witnessed continual turnover. The potential of Mansfield's influence was not lost upon the public. Many factions from "true Whigs" such as John Wilkes, and American patriots viewed him as the epitome of the problem with the British government-its seemingly arbitrary, unconstitutional, and tyrannical posture toward everything. Mansfield posed a particular challenge for these groups because he was a Chief Justice, and they believed he was supposed to adhere to a strong notion of justice. Instead, they saw him continually leading their repression, and so they questioned the basis of the whole British system. Through pamphlets, newspapers, and visual prints, these groups identified Mansfield as a key conspirator, which they attributed to an anti-British disposition. In these ways, Mansfield and his opponents squared off over the definition of true Britishness internally and imperially. When these opponents gathered enough strength (Londoners during the Gordon Riots, and Americans with their War of Independence), they aimed to pull down Mansfield and his comrades for their violations. The former failed to overthrow society, but they arguably hastened a change in government. The latter succeeded in their movement to exit the Empire. The Revolution was not a total transformation for the Americans, however. They struggled to define their new nation and America had similar imperial aspirations. In this environment, Mansfield was the quintessential symbol of early national "leaders" bipolar attitudes towards Britain. Some leaders such as John Adams embraced their British heritage, and used Mansfield as a model to develop a strong, centralized, commercial nation. Other leaders such as Thomas Jefferson saw Mansfield as the chief villain to the idea of America. Jefferson coined the phrase "Mansfieldism" which he identified as a caustic relationship between law and government that favored the development of political and legal elitism that challenged the interests and participation of common citizens. Jefferson viewed Mansfield as the essential symbol of the American anti-revolution. These first-generation independent Americans both remembered Mansfield for his direct participation in the imperial crisis, but for Adams and his fellow Federalists, they had to initiate redemption for Mansfield to justify their program to create America. The redemption was successful. American institutions used Mansfield to fine-tune the balance between their British heritage and uniquely American outlook. As successive generations of Americans emerged into the political sphere, they remembered his seemingly progressive positions on law and society as presented through his court decisions over his actual participation against their independence. Especially through a selective reading of his decision in Somerset, Mansfield became the legal prophet for abolitionist nationalism. His decision arguably provided a legal precedent against the institution of slavery, but it more importantly transformed into the moral imperative of the movement. In this manner, Mansfield became fully redeemed among Americans.

Texto completoCette étude examine «Nightwood» par Djuna Barnes, «Tropic of Cancer» par Henry Miller, et «Naked Lunch» par William S. Burroughs dans le cadre contextuel de la censure. En particulier, les trois textes sont étudiées en fournissant des défis uniques pour le moyen que l'obscénité a été déterminée et régie par les essais qui ont défini la période moderniste en Amérique. Par conséquent, l'objectif de cette étude est double: d'enquêter les mécanismes complexes, productifs et multidirectionnelle de la censure; de récupérer le potentiel transgressif de l'obscénité de Barnes, Miller, et Burroughs de la vie après la mort légalisée de texte. Situer ces textes dans le concept « pacte de lecture » de E.S. Burt, un contrat socio-historiques de règles et de règlements qui régissent la façon dont la littérature est reçu dans une culture donnée, révèle la relation embrouillé entre la forme esthétique et les méthodes par lesquelles le pouvoir et la connaissance sont fixé. Dans ce cadre, j'explore la façon dont l'obscénité («non dicible») est une violation grave du contrat, qui élargisse le domaine de ce qui peut être inclus dans le domaine du discours légitime («dicible»). Dans le premier chapitre, le «non case» de «Nightwood» de Barnes est proposé d'être à la suite de l'intervention de TS Eliot qui reflète un essai stratégique pour cacher l'obscénité de Barnes sous le voile de légitimation du juge Woolsey's verdict dans le procès historique 1933 Ulysse. Le deuxième chapitre analyse les origines épistolaire du «Tropic of Cancer» et suggère que la lettre fournit Miller avec un matériau de base pour lutter contre les contraintes du «grand art» et un espace pour écrire le corps sexuelle de «l'homme moyen sensuel» de Woolsey dans la littérature. Enfin, une exploration de la indicible monstrueux de «Naked Lunch» illustre comment Burroughs emploie l'agent-double de déconstruire la méthode allégorique à la base des codes juridiques qui a autorisé le roman et aider à amener la fin du contrôle de la censure.

Texto completoAnalysis of the evolution of norms relating to emergency powers, essentially beginning in the mid-twentieth century, is an excellent way of highlighting the far reaching renewal in this particular area both in terms of international law and in terms of internal law within individual States. A dynamic relationship can be observed between these two spheres in that the experiences of individual States contribute to the development of international law which in turn leads to an evolution of internal law. The emergence of the concept of the rule of law and the need for States to ensure respect for individual rights and freedom serve as guidelines for this dynamic process. Thus is born an international legal regime governing emergency powers, the establishment of a coherent set of rules concerning powers available at times of crisis. The objective of such a regime is to make emergency powers an essential part of the rule of law, much like the separation of powers or the existence of judicial remedies. With regard to domestic law, the majority of States, or at least those under the jurisdiction of the Inter-American and European Courts of Human Rights which constitute the body of this comparative study, retain the notion of institutionalization of emergency powers. Constitution making takes account of international developments in this particular field, putting in place and developing a variety of mechanisms with the aim of establishing emergency powers within the principle of the rule of law. The result is a work of constitutional engineering aimed at meticulously framing emergency powers, thereby guaranteeing the existence of these powers but also ensuring that they are not used for nefarious purposes
El análisis de la evolución de las normas jurídicas relativas a los poderes de crisis, principalmente a partirde la segunda mitad del siglo XX, permite poner de manifiesto la profunda renovación de la materia, tantodel punto de vista del derecho internacional como del derecho interno de los Estados. Existe un procesodinámico entre las dos esferas : la experiencia de los Estados contribuye al desarrollo del derechointernacional que, a su vez, participa en la evolución del derecho interno. Este proceso dinámico, guiadotanto por la emergencia del concepto de Estado de Derecho como por la necesidad de los Estados degarantizar el respeto de los derechos y libertades de los individuos, engendra la creación de un régimenjurídico internacional del estado de excepción, es decir un conjunto coherente de reglas relativas a lospoderes de crisis. Este régimen se destina a hacer del estado de excepción una institución del Estado deDerecho, al mismo nivel que la separación de poderes o que los recursos juridiccionales destinados aproteger el principio de juridicidad. A nivel interno, al menos la mayoría de los Estados que se someten ala jurisdicción de la Corte Interamericana ou a la del Tribunal Europeo, que son el objeto de este estudiocomparado, acatan la idea de institucionalización de los poderes de crisis. Los constituyentes toman encuenta las evoluciones internacionales en la materia y desarrollan numerosos mecanismos destinados ainscribir el estado de excepción en los principios del Estado de Derecho. El resultado es un trabajo deingeniería constitucional que circunscribe los poderes de crisis minuciosamente, esperando garantizar deesta manera la existencia de estos poderes asI como la limitación de los abusos

One of the most important questions in innovation policy today is whether the acts of making and using a patented invention for research purposes should be exempt from infringement liability, also known as the research exemption. Most of the legal scholarship about the research exemption has focused on normative questions like whether the law should have an exemption and what form it should take. Few if any articles have approached the research exemption as a case study in the political economy of American patent law. This article analyzes the legal and political history of the research exemption from 1970 to the present in order to illustrate and expand upon existing theories about the political economy of American patent law. The history was constructed by first using law review commentary to identify all major instances when the research exemption became a prominent issue in a judicial, legislative, or executive forum, and then analyzing primary sources from those debates to identify the individuals and institutions that participated and the arguments they made. One major conclusion is that faulty economic ideology has played a significant role in shaping policy towards the research exemption, and that the Court of Appeals Federal Circuit--the standard bearer for that ideology--has exhibited a strong institutional bias against the research exemption. Together, these forces have created an excessively complex policy environment that is placing a significant strain on the national research system, a strain that executive agencies and the courts have tried to alleviate through ad hoc agreements and modifications of other patent doctrines, like the doctrine of subject matter eligibility.

Texto completoThe South Asian American population growth rate is high, however, there is little research regarding their mental health concerns and low utilization of services. One of the most understudied and complex issues is the interpersonal relationships of South Asian women, specifically the relationship between a daughter-in-law and mother-in-law. This study is a first to examine the relationship between a South Asian daughter-in-law and mother-in-law living in the US through a combination of feminist and relational-cultural perspectives. Also investigated are the help-seeking sources daughter-in-laws use for personal/emotional and domestic violence concerns. Participants in this web-based, descriptive study were 155 married (or previously married) South Asian American women (ages 18-69), who had a mother-in-law. Most identified as Muslims or Hindus. T-tests, correlations, and standard multiple regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between the daughter-in-laws' perceptions of their relationship with their mother-in-laws, cultural values, and formal and informal help-seeking for personal/emotional and domestic violence issues. Instruments used were adapted to be culturally sensitive. Thirty-five percent of the participants reported psychological abuse and 23% reported emotional abuse by their mother-in-laws. All identified caring and controlling aspects of their relationship with their mother-in-law. Most of the women did not meet full criteria for partner violence, however the daughter-in-law/mother-in-law relationship differed between the women who were abused by their partner and those who were not. Perceived care and control from mother-in-law was related to daughter-in-law's sex role expectations, partner violence, and help-seeking. Daughter-in-law's help-seeking sources differed depending on the type of problem; as with previous studies and cultural expectations most identified informal help-seeking sources. Higher care from mother-in-law predicted lower help-seeking intentions from mother-in-law for personal issues and domestic violence. Sex role expectations and partner violence predicted help-seeking from minister for personal issues. Intimate relations and partner violence predicted higher likelihood of help-seeking from minister for domestic violence. To promote interpersonal health among South Asian American women, it is necessary to explore and comprehend the nature of in-law relationships and study both positive and the negative in-law relationships. Implications of these findings for women's personal relationships, for clinical work and future research needs are discussed.
