Brown, Farrier, Neal And Weisbrot's Criminal Laws: Materials And Commentary On Criminal Law And Process In New South Wales, David Brown, David Farrier, Sandra Egger, Luke Mcnamara, Alex Steel, Michael Grewcock, Donna Spears
David C. Brown
"The success of Criminal Laws lies both in its distinctive features and in its appeal to a range of readerships. As one review put it, it is simultaneously a "textbook, casebook, handbook and reference work". As such it is ideal for criminal law and criminal justice courses as a teaching text, combining as it does primary sources with extensive critical commentary and a contextual perspective. It is likewise indispensable to practitioners for its detailed coverage of substantive law and its extensive references and inter-disciplinary approach make it a first point of call for researchers from all disciplines. This fifth edition …

Social, Cultural, And Temporal Dynamics Of The Aids Case Congregation: Early Years Of The Epidemic, Kriss Drass, Peter Gregware, Michael Musheno
Social, Cultural, And Temporal Dynamics Of The Aids Case Congregation: Early Years Of The Epidemic, Kriss Drass, Peter Gregware, Michael Musheno
Michael Musheno
The article looks at how social and cultural factors shape judicial decisions, with respect to the AIDS epidemic in the United States, with reference to the early years of the epidemic from 1983-1989. The temporal analysis of the opinions of AIDS related cases suggests the emergence of more than one AIDS case congregation, by the end of the 1980s among reported cases. The initial construction of AIDS as a gay disease mobilized gay activists, including gay rights litigators who saw up close the problems that White gay people with AIDS faced in the workplace, housing, and health care. The activists …

Forming Families By Law - Adoption In America Today, Joan Hollinger, Naomi Cahn
Forming Families By Law - Adoption In America Today, Joan Hollinger, Naomi Cahn
Joan Hollinger
The article focuses on the laws related to adoption in the U.S. It is stated that there is a long history in the U.S. of some children being raised by adults other than their biological parents, but legal recognition of these families was not generally available until states began enacting formal adoption laws in the mid-nineteenth century. By legitimizing a parent-child relationship between biogenetic strangers, adoption strikes some skeptics.

The Play(Fulness) Of Law, Nicole Rogers
The Play(Fulness) Of Law, Nicole Rogers
Dr Nicole Rogers
In this thesis, I undertake an investigation into the relationship between play, playfulness and law. Law relies on a certain form of play, rule-bound orderly play; this is demonstrated, for example, in the ceremony of the trial. Furthermore, underpinning every legal system, we find a different form of play: the spontaneous and disruptive performances of revolutionary violence which found every state.
Play can be, in fact, an unpredictable force. Play can disrupt or derail the structured performances of law; play can deflect the violence of the state. I am interested in the dramatic possibilities of using subversive play, or playfulness, …

The History And The Current Development Of Commercial Arbitration In Kazakhstan, Venera Konussova
The History And The Current Development Of Commercial Arbitration In Kazakhstan, Venera Konussova
Venera Konussova
Kazakhstan has recently been taking steps to a new wave of modernization in order to enter 30 the most developed countries of the world. Such ambitious goal requires not only fast and effective development of all spheres of the economy but also significant improvement of legislation. Revision of legislation in the field of arbitration seeks a twofold goal; to create favorable conditions for the civil rights protection, and to improve the investment climate in particular. In order to obtain this goal, the Draft Law on Arbitration largely reconsidered existing legislation by incorporating progressive regulations, which help to overcome long lasting …

The Exorcism Motif In The Philosophy Of Sovereign Citizen Movements, John Ehrett
The Exorcism Motif In The Philosophy Of Sovereign Citizen Movements, John Ehrett
John Ehrett
I aim to deconstruct a key part of the sovereign citizen movement’s perspective on legitimate authority. I argue that the core underpinnings of sovereign citizen mentality (as applied) operate according to an anthropological framework similar to that used in an exorcism: namely, the ceremonial divestiture from an oppressive authority into whose service one has been subtly pressed.
Toward A Textualist Paradigm For Interpreting Emoticons, John Ehrett
Toward A Textualist Paradigm For Interpreting Emoticons, John Ehrett
John Ehrett
I evaluate the dimensions of courts’ current interpretive dilemma, and subsequently sketch a possible framework for extending traditional statutory interpretation principles into this new domain: throughout the following analysis, I describe the process of attaching cognizable linguistic referents to emoticons and emojis throughout as symbolical reification, and propose a normative way forward for those tasked with deriving meaning from emoji-laden communications.
