การกระทำความผิดต่อทรัพย์ เป็นการกระทำความผิดที่พบมากในสังคมไทย แต่มีลักษณะการกระทำความผิดและสร้างความเสียหายต่อสังคมแตกต่างกันออกไป โดยเฉพาะการกระทำความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อยกับการกระทำความผิดต่อทรัพย์ที่มีมูลค่าหรือราคาจำนวนมากที่สร้างความเสียหายในระดับร้ายแรงแรง ซึ่งผู้กระทำความผิดมักมีมูลเหตุจูงใจหรือวัตถุที่มุ่งหมายกระทำแตกต่างกัน แต่กลับพบว่าตามประมวลกฎหมายอาญาของไทย มิได้มีการแบ่งแยกความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อยไว้โดยเฉพาะ ทำให้ผู้กระทำความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อย ซึ่งถือเป็นความผิดอาญาที่ไม่ร้ายแรง ต้องระวางโทษเช่นเดียวกับผู้ที่กระทำความผิดต่อทรัพย์ในลักษณะอื่น ซึ่งไม่เป็นไปตามหลักความได้สัดส่วนกับความผิดและผู้กระทำความผิด ผลจากการศึกษาวิวัฒนาการความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อยตั้งแต่อดีตถึงปัจจุบันของทั้งกฎหมายไทย กฎหมายของจักรวรรดิโรมัน ประเทศอินเดีย อังกฤษ และจีน พบว่า การบัญญัติฐานความผิดเกี่ยวกับทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อยควรนำไปใช้กับการลักทรัพย์ เนื่องจากเป็นรูปแบบการกระทำต่อทรัพย์ที่ไม่มีความซับซ้อน ไม่มีการใช้กำลังประทุษร้าย หรือใช้อุบายหลอกลวง อันแสดงให้เห็นว่าผู้กระทำความผิดมีจิตใจที่ชั่วร้าย โดยการกำหนดฐานความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อยควรกำหนดหลักเกณฑ์ที่ชัดเจนว่าทรัพย์ราคาเท่าใดถือเป็นทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อย เพื่อทำให้การบังคับใช้กฎหมายมีความชัดเจนแน่นอน และยกเลิกเงื่อนไขความจำใจหรือความยากจนเหลือทนทาน เนื่องจากทำให้เกิดปัญหาการตีความและไม่สอดคล้องกับวิวัฒนาการความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อยที่ไม่เคยปรากฏเงื่อนไขดังกล่าวมาก่อน โดยการบัญญัติฐานความผิดต่อทรัพย์อันมีราคาเล็กน้อย ผู้ร่างกฎหมายควรพิจารณาปัจจัยต่าง ๆ ให้ครอบคลุมทุกด้าน ทั้งหลักความได้สัดส่วนหรือแนวคิดทางอาชญาวิทยา เป็นต้น

Authentication Of Andrographis Paniculata And Herbal Products Using Dna Barcoding And High-Resolution Melting Analysis, Ei Mon Cho

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Andrographis paniculata (AP) exhibits a wide range of therapeutic indications and effective treatment, leading to the increment of the demand for this herbal remedy. Due to the limitation of both fresh AP and AP commercial products, this resulted in the discovery of adulterations with bitter-tasting herbs like Tinospora crispa (TC) and Azadirachta indica var. siamensis (AI) with different indications. Therefore, a suitable method for the identification of the herb of interest is required. While conventional authentication methods for AP have limitations, the DNA barcoding technique has become a potential method for identifying medicinal plants in many countries' pharmacopoeias.

The Monetization Of Childhood: How Child Social Media Stars Are Unprotected From Exploitation In The United States, Jessica Pacht-Friedman Jan 2022

The Monetization Of Childhood: How Child Social Media Stars Are Unprotected From Exploitation In The United States, Jessica Pacht-Friedman

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note highlights the legal vulnerabilities of child social media influencers, or "kidfluencers," who are increasingly exploited due to inadequate protections under U.S. labor laws. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) exempts child performers, and while some states have Coogan Laws, these are insufficient to address the unique challenges posed by digital platforms like YouTube. The author advocates for expanding these protections to include social media stars and adopting a "Right to be Forgotten" to safeguard children's privacy and financial interests.

“Traditional Mexican Midwifery” Tourism Excludes Indigenous “Others” And Threatens Sustainability, Rosalynn A. Vega Jan 2022

“Traditional Mexican Midwifery” Tourism Excludes Indigenous “Others” And Threatens Sustainability, Rosalynn A. Vega

Anthropology Faculty Publications

Drawn by the allure of “ancient cultures,” tourists inadvertently consume deauthenticated indigenous practices, including ethnomedical traditions such as midwifery. This is especially true in the case of “Traditional Mexican Midwifery” since stark differences exist between how midwifery practices unfold in indigenous contexts and how they are represented to global tourists. “Traditional Mexican Midwifery” tourism is a unique lens for examining some of the underlying, intersectional issues threatening “sustainability” in ethnomedical tourism. When nonindigenous individuals position themselves as representatives of “Traditional Mexican Midwifery” and indigenous midwives are excluded from profit chains, this type of tourism not only fails to meet the …

Widening The Feminist Lens: Gillian Flynn's Exploration Of Female Villainy, Ann M. Smith Jan 2022

Widening The Feminist Lens: Gillian Flynn's Exploration Of Female Villainy, Ann M. Smith

All Student Theses and Dissertations

Gillian Flynn challenges fiction's male-dominated presence by asserting female presence in number, relevance, and agency. Instead of following patriarchal expectations which maintain that female characters must be virtuous, Flynn evokes female villains whose complexities and monstrous actions extend beyond the limits of the Gothic tradition from which she draws. Although Flynn champions female agency within her fiction, her efforts meet harsh criticism from mainstream audience, specifically regarding Gone Girl. I assert the backlash stems from the audiences' failure to see Amy's character apart from their own expectations of what a feminist character must represent. While feminism in general means …

Essay: A Continuing Constitutional Trend Of Using The First To Interpret The Second, David L. Hudson Jr. Jan 2022

Essay: A Continuing Constitutional Trend Of Using The First To Interpret The Second, David L. Hudson Jr.

Law Faculty Scholarship

This Essay examines the continuing constitutional trend of using First Amendment principles to interpret and develop Second Amendment doctrine. Beginning with District of Columbia v. Heller, in which the Supreme Court drew multiple analogies between the two amendments, the article traces how lower courts have relied on First Amendment jurisprudence to structure Second Amendment analysis. Courts have borrowed concepts such as the non-absolute nature of constitutional rights, the role of history and tradition, categorical exclusions, tiered standards of scrutiny, adequate alternatives, evidentiary requirements, and doctrines relating to fees, underinclusivity, and geographic limitations. At the same time, courts have rejected …
