Consentimiento Informado: Un Derecho Fundamental En La Relación Médico Paciente., Guillermo Castorena
Guillermo Castorena
Este derecho está basado en el principio de autonomía. Se trata de un derecho humano del paciente, aunque por otra parte, podría verse también como un elemento estructural esencial del contrato de servicios médicos, esto es, la esencia misma de ese acto médico-jurídico. De esa manera, la voluntad del paciente para someterse a un procedimiento médico o quirúrgico con fines diagnósticos, terapéuticos, rehabilitatorios o paliativos, se formará por un proceso de información, entendimiento, razonamiento y manifestación de la voluntad.

The Issue Is Being Intersex: The Current Standard Of Care Is A Result Of Ignorance, And It Is Amazing What A Little Analysis Can Conclude., Marla J. Ferguson

The Constitution was written to protect and empower all citizens of the United States, including those who are born with Disorders of Sex Development. The medical community, as a whole, is not equipped with the knowledge required to adequately diagnose or treat intersex babies. Intersex simply means that the baby is born with both male and female genitalia. The current method that doctors follow is to choose a sex to assign the baby, and preform irreversible surgery on them without informed consent. Ultimately the intersex babies are mutilated and robbed of many of their fundamental rights; most notably, the right …
Detention Of Children Under Vietnamese Administrative Law: Is It Criminal?, Cheryl J. Lorens
Detention Of Children Under Vietnamese Administrative Law: Is It Criminal?, Cheryl J. Lorens
Cheryl J Lorens
In the Socialist Republic of Vietnam the administrative law system permits executive authorities to detain children who have committed minor violations of the law for up to two years in reform schools. Under Vietnamese law these children have not committed a criminal offence and remain outside the protections of article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). However, the Human Rights Committee allows for the full application of Article 14 and the right to a fair trial to situations where individuals are charged with offences under laws distinct from the criminal law, but which are nevertheless …

Clear Depictions Promote Clear Decisions: Drafting Abortion Speech-And-Display Statutes That Pass First And Fourteenth Amendment Muster, Ryan J. Pulkrabek
Clear Depictions Promote Clear Decisions: Drafting Abortion Speech-And-Display Statutes That Pass First And Fourteenth Amendment Muster, Ryan J. Pulkrabek
Ryan J Pulkrabek
Several states have passed legislation requiring physicians to take, display, and describe an ultrasound to their patients who are seeking an abortion. These statutes have been challenged under both the Fourteenth and First Amendments because the statutes place burdens on women who seek abortion and compel physician speech. Courts are divided on these questions and state legislatures need guidance as they consider reform. This Article proposes a model "speech-and-display" statute that is both consistent with the Constitution and good public policy. This model statute is designed to protect the mental health of patients and the life of the unborn by …
Wrongs Against Immigrants' Rights: Why Terminating The Parental Rights Of Deported Immigrants Raises Constitutional And Human Rights Concerns, Rachel C. Zoghlin
Wrongs Against Immigrants' Rights: Why Terminating The Parental Rights Of Deported Immigrants Raises Constitutional And Human Rights Concerns, Rachel C. Zoghlin
Rachel Claire Zoghlin
Since President Barack Obama first took office in January 2009, his administration has made immigration enforcement a top priority. In 2012, the U.S. government spent more money to deport immigrants – $18 billion – than on the FBI, Secret Service, DEA, U.S. Marshal Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms combined. Since January 2009, the Obama administration has removed over 2.2 million immigrants. Of the over 211,000 individuals deported between January and June of 2011, nearly 22% (over 46,000) are parents of U.S.-citizen children. One collateral consequence of these deportations is that over 5,100 children have been placed …

A Noble Cause: A Case Study Of Discrimination, Symbols, And Reciprocity, In: Diversity And European Human Rights, Yofi Tirosh

This chapter is part of a volume dedicated to rewriting human rights cases issued by the European Court of Human Rights. It uses the case of De La Cierva Osorio De Moscoso v. Spain (1999) as a platform to discuss the inherent tension typifying signs such as nobility titles – as merely symbolic or as carrying substantive content. The problem of one’s ownership of signs is especially acute in the case of women. I will argue that the distinction between form and substance collapses in this case, as in many other cases that involve allocation of allegedly merely symbolic signifiers …
