Application Of The Elements Of Torture And Other Forms Of Ill-Treatment, As Defined By The European Court And Commission Of Human Rights, To The Incidents Of Domestic Violence, Ela Grdinic

UC Law SF International Law Review

Domestic violence has not traditionally been considered a type of torture. In fact, until recently, many European countries did not even have laws to protect women from domestic assault. However, the development of concepts in international law such as the individual right to petition, the positive obligations of states, the absolute character of certain rights, and the expansion of the application of state responsibility for the acts of private individuals, all provide fertile ground for the recognition of domestic violence as a human rights issue.

This Article argues that incidents of domestic violence in fact satisfy the criteria imposed by …

A House On Fire: Linking The Biological And Linguistic Diversity Crises, Kieran Suckling

Animal Law Review

Although it is a truism among conservation biologists that humanity is in the midst of the Earth's sixth great extinction spasm, overt public awareness of the crisis is dim, and understanding of its implications even dimmer. The house is burning down around us, and even as the beams begin to cave in, we have but the vaguest intuition of the enormity of the danger. How is it possible to ignore the biosphere careening toward an extinction catastrophe unparalleled not only in the brief span of human history, but in the last sixty-five million years of life on Earth? The question …

Review Of Women Of The Press In Nineteenth-Century Britain, Barbara Onslow

The George Eliot Review Online, ISSN: 2831-5375

'Everything in the literary world is done by favour and connections'. Mary Howitt's assessment of the importance of contacts in the London of the 1840s is borne out in Barbara Onslow's wide ranging and fascinating study of nineteenth century women journalists. 'Journalism was an open profession', as she observes, 'but it was a masculine one' and women who sought access to it relied on a variety of networks. Her book is, indirectly, a superb study of female networking. Family connections helped women like Mary Howitt, Anna Maria Hall, Isabella Beeton and Alice Meynell, each of whom teamed up with her …

Towards A Critical Reputation: Henry James On Felix Holt, The Radical, Christine Richards

The George Eliot Review Online, ISSN: 2831-5375

A productive starting point for a critical evaluation of Henry James's criticism of George Eliot's fiction is his unsigned review of Felix Halt, the Radical, 1 which, as his first piece of criticism on her, is perhaps itself most usefully read against the background of the novel's extremely favourable contemporary reception,' for in his review lames addresses the issues of the novel's acclaim, arguing not only that the volume of praise it had already acquired was sufficient but also that Eliot's increasing reputation would only attract more (E&W 911). This determination to call a halt to the praise showered on …

The Appeal Of Therapeutic Jurisprudence, Shirley S. Abrahamson

Seattle University Law Review

If therapeutic jurisprudence is so good, its applicability should not be limited to the trial courts. This Article offers some examples of how appellate courts can join the trial courts in applying therapeutic jurisprudence, but it also raises some concerns.

Integrated Airline Organizational Frameworks And Crew Resource Management Effectiveness, Triant Flouris

Journal of Aviation/Aerospace Education & Research

It is only through well-designed and implemented Crew Resource Management being deeply rooted in an airline's organizational culture that an airline can achieve its highest possible standard of safety, by having the highest degree of operational efficiency. It is not Crew Resource Management training itself that contributes to well-trained crew members who implement Crew Resource Management principles in flight operations. Rather, it is a strong company organizational culture that contributes, ultimately, to the effectiveness of Crew Resource Management.

Sovereignty, Human Rights, And Self-Determination: The Meaning Of International Law, Father Robert Araujo

Fordham International Law Journal

This Essay contends that popular sovereignty and the other rights enumerated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) are inextricably linked. When popular sovereignty is criticized, what will become of the other rights? The principal goal of this Essay, then, is to examine the concept of sovereignty as it relates to the practice and protection of human rights issues grounded in international law. This examination should reveal the existence of more than one kind of sovereignty: that of the State and that of the people (the nation or nations). This Essay's goal is to demonstrate that a State is …

A Summer Reading Program For The Educational Enrichment Of Fourth Grade Students, Heather Taylor

Honors Capstones

In order to create a worthwhile reading program, various topics must be researched and discussed. A beneficial reading program does not just consist of reading and discussing a text. Rather, multiple aspects must be included in the program. In researching the topics of reading and writing, a wide variety of results formed both the basis for this paper and for the program itself Instead of specifically researching information on developing reading programs, the research for this program revolved around various topics that would aid in increasing both reading interest and reading comprehension. Increasing these two favors has become the major …

The Significance Of The Category "Insect" For Folk Biological Classification Systems, Eraldo Medeiros Costa-Neto

Journal of Ecological Anthropology

In most human societies, the term "insect" denotes a category that includes organisms other than those of the Linnaean class Insecta, such as bats, snakes, toads, spiders, lizards, scorpions, and slugs. Such a pattern of ethnozoological classification occurs because human beings tend to project feelings of noisomeness, danger, disgust, and disdain toward some non-insect animals (including people) by allocating them to the culturally determined category "insect". Metaphors related to this lexeme highlight the negative aspects that are normally associated with real or imaginary perceptions of "insects". This article briefly discusses this cultural pattern. It is suggested that researchers who carry …
