Comment On James Boyd White's Book "Living Speech" (Princeton 2006), Yofi Tirosh
Comment On James Boyd White's Book "Living Speech" (Princeton 2006), Yofi Tirosh
Yofi Tirosh
Professor White introduces a new way for thinking about speech; a new measure for assessing it. He invites us to use speech carefully and responsibly, in what he calls “living speech.” Caring about the value of speech is not merely an aesthetic endeavor. As meaning making creatures, as “centers of meaning,” we should know how to recognize the speech that is essential to our humanness. Because living speech is “what enables any of us to be a person in the first place” (16).
How can we recognize living speech? The short answer that White gives us, which is indeed poetic …

Between Judicial Enabling And Adversarialism: The Role Of The Judicial Officer In Protecting The Unrepresented Accused In Botswana In A Comparative Perspective, Rowland Cole
rowland cole
The role of the judicial officer in Botswana’s adversarial system has evolved over the decades. Traditionally, the judicial officer in the adversarial system plays a neutral role while the parties present their cases. The semblance of neutrality compels the judicial officer to remain passive and refrain from interfering with the process. Over the years, the courts have recognised that the unrepresented accused cannot get a fair trial as she is unaware of the rules of procedure and evidence. This being the case, the unrepresented accused cannot effectively participate in the proceedings. Consequently, the courts have over the years stated that …

A Name Of One's Own: Gender And Symbolic Legal Personhood In The European Court Of Human Rights, Yofi Tirosh
Yofi Tirosh
Legal regulation of surnames provides a fascinating venue for examining how women negotiate their interests of autonomy and of stable personhood vis a vis a patriarchal naming structure. This is a study of 25 years of adjudication of surnames and personal status at the European Court of Human Rights. It explores the intricate ways in which legal norms governing surnames (and their judicial interpretation) sustain, shape, and reify social institutions such as gender, family, and citizenship.
As a pan European court, the adjudication of the ECHR operates within the framework of human rights. The universal characteristics of human rights principles …

Section 4 Of The Hindu Succession Act Of 1956, Hari Priya
Hari Priya
A brief write up in the form of a comprehensive article aiming to critically evaluate the Section 4 of the Hindu Succession Act of 1956. The law, as it stands amended, has not only brought about changes in the succession laws of Hindus, but has also paved the way for some positive modifications in the law of partition, alienation of property, inheritance and adoption, and the paper is an effort to evaluate this provision of the law.
