Capital Punishment And Statutory Frame Work In India, Krishna Kumari Areti
Krishna Kumari Areti prof
As far as India is concerned, the provisions relating to Capital Punishment are embodied in Indian Penal Code and Criminal Procedure Code.

Criminal Procedure Code is the procedural law, which explains the procedure to be followed in death penalty cases. The substantive law of India viz., Indian Penal Code was enacted in the year 1860.

Law's Autonomy, Ashok Agrwaal
Law's Autonomy, Ashok Agrwaal
Ashok Agrwaal
Like entropy, autonomy exists. As such, the existence of autonomy does not need any law or laws, beyond itself and its nature. Autonomy can, therefore, be said to be an "original" state of human kind; or at least of the individual. Law, which is frequently seen as preserving/ maximising/ conferring autonomy is actually a device to usurp autonomy. The paper looks at a specific example of how the nation-state, the most powerful usurper of autonomies created till date, arrogates autonomy to itself, in the name of ‘public interest’. Needless to say, in the hands of the state, autonomy translates into …
Dual Subordination: Muslim Sexuality In Secular And Religious Legal Discourse In India, Aziza Ahmed
Dual Subordination: Muslim Sexuality In Secular And Religious Legal Discourse In India, Aziza Ahmed
Faculty Scholarship
Muslim women and Muslim members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community face a specific form of dual subordination in relation to their gender and sexuality. A Muslim woman might seek solace from India's patriarchal religious judicial structures only to find that the secular system's patriarchal structures likewise aid in their subordination and create a space for new forms of such subordination. Similarly, a marginalized LGBT Muslim might attempt to reject an oppressive religious formulation only to come to find that the secular Indian state might criminalize a particular form of sexuality. This analysis explores how Indian laws …

In this article the mass murders and rapes of thousands of women at the time of partition was elaborately discussed. The then Hyderabad State underwent …
Evolution Of Environment Legislation In India, Krishna Kumari Areti
Evolution Of Environment Legislation In India, Krishna Kumari Areti
Krishna Kumari Areti prof
For any country the effective way of control pollution and degradation of resources is to combine traditional laws, with modern legislation. A country should adopt relevant environmental safeguards- designed to protect their limited resources. As far as India is concerned, the Ministry of Environment and Forests is the nodal agency at the Central level for planning, promoting and coordinating the environmental programmes, apart from policy formulation. A number of enforcement agencies assist the Ministry of Environment and Forests, in executing the assigned responsibilities.
Electronic Government And Digital Inclusion: Examples From India, Subhajit Basu
Electronic Government And Digital Inclusion: Examples From India, Subhajit Basu
Subhajit Basu
This presentation has two parts: In the first part I look into Development, effect of technology on development, obviously technology provides opportunity to have choices but Can Technology (here ICT) influence development? Digital inclusion is a concept about the disparities in terms of citizens’ participation in the Information Society. This participation may be conceptualised in the first instance as ICT access, levels of use and use patterns. On one hand we have technology which promises of New Dawn for the developing countries, on the other hand only access to technology will not provide development for poor millions of a developing …
Copyright, Translations, And Relations Between Britain And India In The Nineteenth And Early Twentieth Centuries, Lionel Bently
Copyright, Translations, And Relations Between Britain And India In The Nineteenth And Early Twentieth Centuries, Lionel Bently
Chicago-Kent Law Review
This paper examines the tension between trade and development, and its handling in multiple layers of law-making through an historical case study concerning copyright in India in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth century. The paper explains the emergence of views in the Government of India of what copyright law should cover that reflected longstanding but not unproblematic assumptions about India's need for European knowledge and learning. The belief that India needed access to European knowledge informed resistance to the desires of British publishers that copyright owners should be able to control the making of translations of their works. These divergences between …

Finding Harmony With Uncitral Model Law: Contemporary Issues In International Commercial Arbitration In India After The Arbitration And Conciliation Act Of 1996 , Sandeep S. Sood
Finding Harmony With Uncitral Model Law: Contemporary Issues In International Commercial Arbitration In India After The Arbitration And Conciliation Act Of 1996 , Sandeep S. Sood
Sandeep S. Sood, J.D.
Abstract India’s international commercial arbitration system has undergone substantial changes over the past decade with India’s sudden emergence as a global economic power. The Arbitration and Conciliation Act of 1996 was enacted in response to address extreme latency in the court system, attract foreign direct investment, and to establish India as a viable forum for international commercial arbitration. While the enactment of the 1996 Act has proven largely successful on these fronts, significant problems remain in providing interim measures of protection, enforcing and challenging arbitral awards, defining arbitral subject-matter, challenging and removing biased arbitrators. Not coincidentally, tensions remain greatest in …

Judicial Review Of International Commercial Arbitral Awards By National Courts In The United States And India, Aparna D. Jujjavarapu
Judicial Review Of International Commercial Arbitral Awards By National Courts In The United States And India, Aparna D. Jujjavarapu
LLM Theses and Essays
Article V of the New York convention lays down the provisions under which the recognition and enforcement of an arbitral award may be refused. The United States and India are signatories to the Convention. Section 10(a) of the Federal Arbitration Act in the United States limits the scope of judicial review of the arbitral awards to a clear list of grounds of vacatur. The national courts of the United States have recognized several non-statutory grounds of which "manifest disregard of the law" as a standard of review is the focus in this thesis. In fact, the state of Georgia has …

Scholarly Discourse, Public Perceptions, And The Cementing Of Norms: The Case Of The Indian Supreme Court And A Plea For Research, Jayanth K. Krishnan
Articles by Maurer Faculty
For economic and nuclear reasons, India has received considerable attention over the last decade from observers in the United States. But attuned Americans are well-aware of India's rich culture and status as a shining constitutional democracy for most of its post-1947 independent history. For all that India has accomplished, however, its public has long viewed its government officials with great disdain. At the same time, a fascinating norm exists in this society which holds one institution in exceedingly high regard - the Indian Supreme Court.
In this article, I seek to examine what accounts for this counter-intuitive norm. As opposed …
Outsourcing Drug Investigations To India: A Comment On U.S., Indian, And International Regulation Of Clinical Trials In Cross-Border Pharmaceutical Research, James Cekola
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
The traditional research and development model of large pharmaceutical companies is arguably unsustainable in current times. For example, estimated research and development costs increased as much as twelve percent over the last year while pharmaceutical sales grew only seven percent over the same period. Current estimates put the price to develop a new drug and bring it to market between $800 million and $1.5 billion per drug. These costs are increasing, driving large pharmaceutical companies to find more cost-effective research and development models. One cost-saving initiative is to globalize the system. In particular, companies have increasingly outsourced the required investigational …
