Why Copyright Law Lacks Taste And Scents, Leon R. Calleja
Why Copyright Law Lacks Taste And Scents, Leon R. Calleja
Leon R Calleja
This paper explores the resistance in U.S. copyright law to extend copyright protection to scents and tastes, and advances the position that copyright law’s originality and expression requirements limit copyrightable subject matter to expressions that engage both author and audience in a way that requires reflection upon the work—or at least, the capacity for reflection—in a necessarily intersubjective and communicative fashion, what I call a “public dimension.” That the sensations of taste and smell are inescapably immediate and private suggest that they lack the kind of public dimension that visual and audio works exhibit. Indeed, this creates an ineffability characterized …
Criminal Wrongs And Constitutional Rights: A View From India, Shubhankar Dam
Criminal Wrongs And Constitutional Rights: A View From India, Shubhankar Dam
Shubhankar Dam
This essay offers an overview of how ideas of constitutionalism, rule of law and fundamental rights contributed to the development of criminal law in India. Various courts, and the Supreme Court in particular, have summoned these broad constitutional concepts to understand, interpret and develop criminal law doctrines. But they are also drawing on these concepts to increasingly address “structural” issues of the criminal justice system - the very apparatus responsible for implementing the doctrines.
What Is Intermediate Legislative Power?, Shubhankar Dam
What Is Intermediate Legislative Power?, Shubhankar Dam
Shubhankar Dam
The President in India’s parliamentary system is authorized to promulgate legislation under Article 123.1 While such legislation, or ‘ordinances’, enjoy the same force and effect as Acts, they are distinct in some ways. First, ordinances lack legislative deliberation: the President promulgates them ‘except when both Houses of Parliament are in session’. Secondly, it depends on the President’s satisfaction that ‘circumstances exist that render it necessary for him to take immediate action’. And they are transient: ordinances cease to operate on the expiry of six weeks from the reassembly of Parliament unless withdrawn earlier or formally enacted into law. Ordinances, then, …

Antidiscrimination Law And The Multiracial Experience: A Reply To Nancy Leong, Tina F. Botts
Antidiscrimination Law And The Multiracial Experience: A Reply To Nancy Leong, Tina F. Botts
Tina F Botts
Misunderstanding the concept of race as based in biology is the root error of Professor Nancy Leong's recommendation of a switch to "perceived race" in antidiscrimination law in order to protect multiracial persons from illegal racial discrimination. Once race is understood as socio-historically constructed and context-dependent rather than as rooted in biology, antidiscrimination law need only add multiracial persons to the categories of specially protected groups in order to protect multiracial persons from illegal discrimination.

Scientific advances often go beyond the classic thoughts of Law. Rapidly, new discoveries and the development of new techniques question fundamental aspects of human existence and the future of our species. So the law and legal operators cannot stand still when faced with the challenges posed by new discoveries and techniques, especially applied to humans. In this book the reader will find many works that examine these challenges, which arise with respect to constitutionalism, and in particular to the rights of the individual; intense debates, sometimes difficult to reconcile from the moral, but that cannot be ignored in the law.
The Constitution, The Roberts Court & Business: The Significant Business Impact Of The Supreme Court's 2011-2012 Term, Corey A. Ciocchetti
The Constitution, The Roberts Court & Business: The Significant Business Impact Of The Supreme Court's 2011-2012 Term, Corey A. Ciocchetti
Corey A Ciocchetti
The 2011-2012 Supreme Court term created quite the media buzz. The Affordable Care Act cases and the controversial Arizona immigration law dominated the headlines. But the term also included other fascinating yet less sensationalized cases. The Court heard its fair share of criminal law controversies involving derelict defense attorneys and prosecutors as well as civil procedure disputes involving qualified immunity for witness in grand jury proceedings and private parties assisting the government in litigation. The justices also entertained arguments on a federal law allowing United States citizens born in Jerusalem to have “Israel” stamped as their birthplace on a passport. …
Efectos De La Constitucionalización Del Arbitraje, Juan Carlos Riofrío Martínez-Villalba
Efectos De La Constitucionalización Del Arbitraje, Juan Carlos Riofrío Martínez-Villalba
Juan Carlos Riofrío Martínez-Villalba
Se analiza aquí cuáles son los efectos de que la Carta suprema del Ecuador haya reconocido la figura de los medios alternativos de solución de conflictos, entre los que se encuentra el arbitraje. Primero se relata la historia de esta constitucionalización (cap. I), para luego revisar cómo se acoplan estos medios al principio constitucional de unidad jurisdiccional (cap. II). En los capítulos III a VII se analiza la naturaleza de estos medios, que ha de considerarse como el núcleo esencial del derecho constitucional a usar estos medios. Los capítulos VIII y IX analizan otros efectos adicionales: la garantía de inderogabilidad …
De La Pirámide De Kelsen A La Pirámide Invertida, Juan Carlos Riofrío Martínez-Villalba
De La Pirámide De Kelsen A La Pirámide Invertida, Juan Carlos Riofrío Martínez-Villalba
Juan Carlos Riofrío Martínez-Villalba
El presente trabajo replantea la pirámide jurídica y la pule dándole la vuelta. Comienza haciendo un análisis crítico de la doctrina de Kelsen y de sus seguidores, quienes partieron de postulados idealistas derivados de la metafísica neokantiana. La segunda parte del estudio reexamina la cuestión, acogiendo abiertamente las bases realistas de la metafísica aristotélico-tomista. Desde ella se elaborarán nuevos conceptos para el derecho (v. gr. ser jurídico, potencia jurídica, espacio jurídico) que estructurarán por sí solos la pirámide invertida. Al final se analiza cómo la doctrina de la pirámide invertida recoge los aciertos de Kelsen y Merkl, junto a los …

A Triumph Of Ill Conceived Language: The Linguistic Origins Of Guantamo’S “Rough Justice”, Brian Christopher Jones
A Triumph Of Ill Conceived Language: The Linguistic Origins Of Guantamo’S “Rough Justice”, Brian Christopher Jones
Brian Christopher Jones
Throughout the years, the Naval Base at Guantanamo Bay has witnessed an abundance of intriguing linguistic words and phrases. For example, “Freedom Vanilla” replaced French Vanilla ice cream in the mess hall, and the area where journalists and others were often sequestered during their visits to the base was re-named “Camp Justice.” The list goes on. However, the language that has had the most significant impact throughout the years has been the words and phrases used in the administration of justice regarding the detainees being held on terrorism charges.Wall St. Journal Supreme Court reporter Jess Bravin’s book, The Terror Courts: …
