Construire La Liberté Ou Le Défi Haïtien, Bernard Hadjadj
Construire La Liberté Ou Le Défi Haïtien, Bernard Hadjadj
Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature
The major challenge of Haitian society remains building liberty after emerging from slavery and acquiring independence. Two centuries after the birth of the first Black Republic, the new social contract that rose from this spirit of “living together” is still in penury. The author examines the principal obstacles on the way to building freedom: namely, the inclusion of a large number of the excluded, which implies the dismantling of misery and the promotion of learning; the institution of authority through law and responsibility which presupposes the end of the “master” figure as a symbol of power, as well as that …
Imposing Self-Interest: Behavioural Law And Economics, The Ultimatum Game, And Value Possibilities, Michael Ilg
Imposing Self-Interest: Behavioural Law And Economics, The Ultimatum Game, And Value Possibilities, Michael Ilg
Dalhousie Law Journal
With the recent emergence of the behavioural approach to law and economics, there is now a systematic critique of law and economics which remains sympathetic to its overall objectives. Rather than seek to undermine traditional law and economics, the intent of the behavioural approach is generally to augment it, and render its formulations more representative of reality. Drawing upon experimental evidence and well-known examples of anomalies within economic theory, behavioural scholars claim that the law needs to better account for instances of individual irrationality. Having identified the situations when rational maximization does not hold, behavioural scholars are then able to …

Globalization has changed the way global society addresses common and global problems. While there is much talk about aiming at sustainable development, there are no real clear definitions of sustainable development and the term remains susceptible to much misuse.

Looking For A Nexus Between Trust, Compassion, And Regulation: Colorado's Search For Standards Of Care For Private, Non-Profit Wildlife Sanctuaries, Katherine A. Burke
Looking For A Nexus Between Trust, Compassion, And Regulation: Colorado's Search For Standards Of Care For Private, Non-Profit Wildlife Sanctuaries, Katherine A. Burke
Animal Law Review
In 2004, the Colorado legislature amended its wildlife statutes, formally recognizing the existence of private, nonprofit wildlife sanctuaries under the jurisdiction of the Colorado Division of Wildlife (CDOW). Opponents to the 2004 amendments and CDOW staff have repeatedly expressed concerns that private sanctuaries should not be authorized in the absence of regulations and enforcement mechanisms sufficient to protect the animals and the people who come into contact with them. In implementing the sanctuary statute, CDOW has followed a familiar pattern, relying on the accreditation program of the American Association of Zoological Parks and Aquariums (AZA) to provide the basis of …

Long-Term Outcomes In Animal Hoarding Cases, Colin Berry, Gary Patronek, Randall Lockwood
Long-Term Outcomes In Animal Hoarding Cases, Colin Berry, Gary Patronek, Randall Lockwood
Animal Law Review
Animal hoarding is a form of abuse that affects thousands of animals each year, yet little is known about how cases are best resolved, the effectiveness of prosecution, and how sentences relate to the severity of the offense. This lack of information has hampered effective resolution and the prevention of recidivism. This study obtained information about the hoarder, animals, charges, prosecution, sentencing, and recidivism for fifty-six cases identified through media reports.
International Animal Rights: Speciesism And Exclusionary Human Dignity, Kyle Ash
International Animal Rights: Speciesism And Exclusionary Human Dignity, Kyle Ash
Animal Law Review
The primary goal of this paper is to act as a heuristic device, to suggest an unconventional but practical perspective on the evolution of international law. Upon surveying discourse on the history of international law, texts of treaties, and declarations and writings of influential philosophers of law and morality, an antiquated perspective of humanity is apparent. A convention in international law, and a reflection of a common idea which feeds the foreboding trend of how humans relate to the planet, treats humanity as distinctively separate from the Earth’s biodiversity. Though environmental law is beginning to recognize the necessity of conserving …
On Law And Democratic Development: Popular Constitutionalism And Judicial Supremacy, Daan Braveman
On Law And Democratic Development: Popular Constitutionalism And Judicial Supremacy, Daan Braveman
Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce
I was asked to comment on the topic of the conference as it relates to the United States. It is not simply my law background that persuaded me to focus on the issue of judicial supremacy. Examination of law and democracy in the United States at some point must tum its attention to the role of the courts, particularly the Supreme Court, in furthering democratic principles. A fundamental aspect of our democratic experience has been the institution of judicial review, the proposition that unelected, life-tenured judges have the power to declare that our elected representatives have acted unconstitutionally. This is …

The Contribution Of Brown V. Board Of Education To Law And Democratic Development, Charles V. Willie
Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce
This article on law and democratic development will focus on Brown v. Board of Education. We celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of Brown I in the year 2004 and we celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of Brown II in the year 2005. I know that Brown is an important event on which to anchor an analysis of law and democratic development because of a conference I attended in April 2004, in South Africa. The conference was sponsored by the University of Pretoria and was staged for the purpose of celebrating the tenth anniversary of South Africa as a democracy and the fiftieth …

State Animal Protection Laws -- The Next Generation, Stephan K. Otto
State Animal Protection Laws -- The Next Generation, Stephan K. Otto
Animal Law Review
A vast increase in animal protection laws during the past decade has changed the legal landscape of animal law. The current generation of such laws includes more inventive and effective provisions, but more could be done. This article reviews the current laws of states across the country and proposes a number of specific provisions that would improve the force and effect of animal protection legislation. The Author’s goal is to identify pragmatic ways in which to make animals the most statutorily protected type of property in our country.
Can The Injured Pet Owner Look To Liability Insurance For Satisfaction Of A Judgment? The Coverage Implications Of Damages For The Injury Or Death Of A Companion Animal, Mark Sadler
Animal Law Review
Much has been written in recent years regarding the important role pets play in our society and the legal consequences that have developed from that relationship. Both our courts and legislatures have recognized, in certain circumstances, the ability of a pet owner to recover from a wrongdoer in the event of negligent or intentional conduct that results in the death or injury of a companion animal. However, securing a damages award and recovering on a judgment secured may present the aggrieved pet owner with two entirely different challenges. Liability insurance coverage is critical to the latter concern. This paper provides …
