A powerful and urgent explanation and vindication of our human rights and freedomsAfter the devastation of World War Two, the international community came together to enshrine fundamental rights to refuge, health, education and living standards, for privacy, fair trials and free speech, and outlawing torture, slavery and discrimination. Their goal was greater global justice, equality, and peace. That settlement is now in danger, attacked by opponents from across the political spectrum and populist and authoritarian movements worldwide. We are threatened by wars, inequality, new technologies and climate catastrophe, and we need our human rights now more than ever. In this powerful, accessible book, Shami Chakrabarti, lawyer, parliamentarian and leading British human rights defender, shows us why human rights are essential for our future. Outlining the historic national and international struggles for human rights, from the fall of Babylon, to the present day, Chakrabarti is an indispensable guide to the law and logic underpinning human dignity and universal freedoms. Her intervention will engage both sceptics and supporters, equipping believers in the battle of ideas and persuading doubters to think again. For human rights to survive, they must be far better understood by everyone.

"Renowned social justice advocate john a. powell persuasively argues that we have not achieved a post-racial society and that there is much work to do to redeem the American promise of inclusive democracy. Culled from a decade of writing about social justice and spirituality, these meditations on race, identity, and social policy provide an outline for laying claim to our shared humanity and a way toward healing ourselves and securing our future. With an updated foreword and brand new chapter on polarization, this revised edition continues to challenge us to replace the attitudes and institutions that promote and perpetuate social suffering with those that foster relationships and a way of being that transcends disconnection and separation"--

Zunehmend komplexe Vertragsstrukturen führen dazu, dass mehrere Verträge umfassende Streitigkeiten auch auf Ebene der Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit an Relevanz gewinnen. Die Durchführung schiedsgerichtlicher Mehrvertragsverfahren bringt indes Herausforderungen mit sich, welche nicht zuletzt in der privatautonomen Natur der Schiedsgerichtsbarkeit wurzeln. Die Autorin greift dieses praxisrelevante Thema auf und bewertet die Chancen und Risiken derartiger Verfahren. Dies geschieht durch wissenschaftliche Auseinandersetzung mit den spezifischen Herausforderungen schiedsgerichtlicher Mehrvertragsverfahren (auch unter Beteiligung Mehrerer), der Erörterung erforderlicher Verfahrensanpassungen sowie vergleichender Analyse der nationalen sowie institutionellen Rahmenbedingungen und Bestimmungen hierzu.

Mit der Einkunftsartenabgrenzung widmet sich die Autorin einem klassischen Thema, das jedoch an Aktualität nicht verloren hat. Im Gegenteil: Die moderne Arbeitswelt stellt das Steuerrecht vor immer neue Herausforderungen.

What is artistic freedom? Something you take for granted in the Nordic countries? Yes, most people would probably say. But perhaps this is not the case at all? After all, does freedom really feel completely free when you as an artist need to please large foundations or well-established museums?

And in which direction is art moving towards in a digital age?This anthology explores artistic freedom through a wide variety of texts.

The Church is commonly spoken of as an institutional reality, but much less frequently recognized as a spiritual and heavenly reality called by God " to make disciples of all nations." (Mt. 28:19) This modest work furthers the development of a structured and integrated Christian Orthodox political thought, whereby the Church is neither sidelined as having no relevance to this present life, nor dominated by temporal questions or popular movements at the expense of its eternal salvific mission. The author seeks to ground the mission of the Church in the present world both on an understanding of God as Trinity and in Her mission to baptize diverse cultures. To do this effectively the Church must recognize and adapt to local and contemporary political and social trends and patterns. It must exemplify the Gospel as a way of communal and social life, not allowing itself to be reduced to an impersonal ideology manifest within the sphere of either imagination, ideology, or a private individualistic existence.

Seit Jahrzehnten sind die in den jeweiligen Berufsordnungen (BRAO, StBerG, WPO) enthaltenen Restriktionen für Rechtsanwälte, Steuerberater oder Wirtschaftsprüfer hinsichtlich weiterer paralleler Tätigkeiten perpetuiert. Die vorliegende Arbeit hinterfragt die bisherigen Argumentationsmuster des Gesetzgebers und der Rechtsprechung. In diesem Zusammenhang werden die Inkompatibilitätsnormen sowie deren Auslegung durch die Rechtsprechung auf ihre Vereinbarkeit mit höherrangigem Recht überprüft. Letztlich zeigt sich die weitgehende Unvereinbarkeit der Regelungen der Berufsordnungen zu Inkompatibilitäten mit deutschem Verfassungsrecht und den europäischen Grundfreiheiten.

""Lawfare" describes the systematic use and abuse of legal procedure for political ends which, in post-genocide Rwanda, contributed to the making of dictatorship.

In contemporary constitutional politics, Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment--which includes the citizenship, privileges and immunities, due process, and equal protection clauses--is the star of the show. But this was not the focus for the Republican members of the Thirty-Ninth Congress. Their interest was instead in Sections 2, 3, and 4. Today we tend to think the purpose of the Fourteenth Amendment was to protect persons of color. But the Republicans engaged in Reconstruction saw its purpose as preventing "rebel rule" by punishing treason and rewarding loyalty, particularly the loyalty of white men who remained faithful to the Union during the Civil War.In this first of three planned volumes for the University Press of Kansas's Constitutional Thinking series, Mark A. Graber aims to restore to contemporary memory the Fourteenth Amendment drafted by those Republican and Unionist members of Congress who supported congressional reconstruction.In Punish Treason, Reward Loyalty, Graber breaks new ground researching Reconstruction, the Fourteenth Amendment, and constitutionalism by highlighting the importance of Sections 2, 3, and 4 to the representatives in the Thirty-Ninth Congress and their relative indifference to Section 1. His work underscores the importance and impact that legislative primacy and partisan supremacy had to Republican constitutional thinking about constitutional authority immediately after the Civil War.Centered on Reconstruction and constitutional reform, Graber shows anew the Republican effort to prevent rebel rule by empowering and protecting loyalty.

This concise but comprehensive book engagingly summarizes both the broad themes and specific tenets of First Amendment law, and the strongest arguments for and against protecting controversial speech such as hate speech and disinformation. It explains the many speech-protective legal rules that emerged during the Civil Rights era, demonstrating how essential free speech is for other human rights.

Johann Konrad Dippel var en eventyrlig skikkelse: pietist, mystiker, alkymist, fritænker, oplyser, provokatør – og bestseller. Hans skrifter om både teologi, lægevidenskab og filosofi og hans provokerende pamfletter gjorde ham berømt over landegrænserne.I de første årtier af 1700-tallet levede han et omflakkende liv i Nordeuropa og måtte ofte flygte eller blev forvist for sine synspunkter. Flere gange blev han smidt i fængsel og hans skrifter brændt.I 1719 var han i Altona – dengang det danske riges næststørste by – for at gøre guld. Så blev der rejst en sag imod ham, der endte med livslang forvisning til Bornholm. I sagen stillede Dippel, der var en af Europas førende intellektuelle, op til kamp imod greveparret Reventlow, det mægtigste adelspar i Danmark-Norge.Alkymist i lænker udforsker sagens detaljer som midtpunkt i en skildring af Dippels hæsblæsende liv, der aldrig før har været grundigt beskrevet på dansk. Bogen udkommer 10. august 2023 på 350-årsdagen for Johann Konrad Dippels fødsel.

The full text of this decision is vitally important for anyone who cares about reproductive justice and public health. With every new decision from a court or regulatory agency regarding abortion drugs comes an opportunity both for progress and for setbacks. It can be difficult as a layperson to keep up with these developments. By studying court briefs and rulings related to lawsuits against the FDA concerning mifepristone use in abortions, readers will gain a better understanding of what goes into current regulations around medication-assisted abortions- why they exist, why they are currently being challenged by plaintiffs, and what the future may hold.AI summary:The document is a district court decision related to lawsuits challenging the FDA's approval and regulation of chemical abortion drugs, specifically mifepristone. The plaintiffs in these cases argue that the FDA's actions have been unlawful and have put women's health at risk. They also claim that the FDA's decisions violate federal law, including the Comstock Act, which prohibits the mailing of items designed to produce abortions. The court rulings and legal briefs provide detailed analyses of the legal arguments and precedents involved in each case.One of the court rulings declares the FDA's approval of chemical abortion drugs under Subpart H to be unlawful, as chemical abortion drugs do not meet the requirements of Subpart H, which allows for the accelerated approval of drugs that treat serious or life-threatening illnesses and provide a meaningful therapeutic benefit. The court determined that pregnancy, which is not an illness, cannot be considered a serious or life-threatening illness. The court also found that chemical abortion drugs do not provide a meaningful therapeutic benefit over surgical abortion.The decision presents arguments against the use of chemical abortion drugs, specifically mifepristone, citing concerns about safety and efficacy. The document highlights several cases where women experienced complications or even death after using the drugs, including misdiagnosed ectopic pregnancies and misdated gestational ages. The document argues that FDA approval of mifepristone was based on incomplete or insufficient information, and that the agency ignored its own prior findings about the drug's safety concerns.Overall, the decision highlights the ongoing legal battles over the FDA's regulation of chemical abortion drugs and the complex legal arguments involved ¿¿in these cases.The full text of this decision is vitally important for anyone who cares about reproductive justice and public health.

Years later, a school assignment triggers Axel Henson to investigate whether or not his own brother was involved.When his brother's defeats start to pile up, the family ends up relying on a less than perfect system of legislators, science, and exonerations, which drive Axel to fight on.

Im Jahr 2020 erklärte das Bundesverfassungsgericht den § 217 StGB für nichtig. Die Autorin setzt sich mit diesem Urteil auseinander und geht der Frage nach, ob neue Gesetzesentwürfe zur Suizidbeihilfe als intensiver Eingriff des Staates in die Grundrechte mit den verfassungsrechtlichen Grundsätzen und dem Urteil in Einklang stehen. Dabei geht sie sowohl auf die Grundlagen der Straftheorie als auch auf allgemeine verfassungsrechtliche Anforderungen ein. Um dogmatische Fragen zufriedenstellend zu klären, bedient sich die Autorin interdisziplinärer Ansätze wie Rechtsgeschichte, Psychologie und Soziologie.Sie analysiert, ob die Strafbestimmungen der neuen Gesetzentwürfe ein legitimes Ziel verfolgen und ob die Maßnahme zur Erreichung dieses Ziels als Strafe besonders geeignet, erforderlich und angemessen ist.
