Leysser L. León

El autor reflexiona sobre la situación actual de la enseñanza del Derecho Civil en las Universidades peruanas e identifica dos desafíos importantes para los docentes de esta materia: la superación de los programas curriculares basados libros del Código Civil y la profudización en el conocimiento teórico y práctico de la vasta temática de esta área formativa fundamental.

A Teoria Do Contrato No Paradigma Constitucional, Lucas Abreu Barroso Dec 2012

A Teoria Do Contrato No Paradigma Constitucional, Lucas Abreu Barroso

Lucas Abreu Barroso

The transition from the rule of law to the constitutional state resulted in the neoconstitutionalist model guided by the protection of fundamental rights. Indeed, civil law and its traditional institutions were conditioned by the public penetration in the private relations. The constitutionalization of civil law presupposes the existential dimension as the core of civil law, which is now concerned with the values emanated from the being in the political community. Therefore, it is necessary to have a reformulation of the concept of subject of rights in the way of a substantive equality as a legitimizing reason of civil law. The …

Toward A Legal Theory Of Finance, Katharina Pistor Nov 2012

Toward A Legal Theory Of Finance, Katharina Pistor

Katharina Pistor

This paper develops the building blocks for a legal theory of finance. LTF holds that financial markets are legally constructed and as such occupy an essentially hybrid place between state and market, public and private. At the same time, financial markets exhibit dynamics that frequently put them in direct tension with commitments enshrined in law or contracts. This is the case especially in times of financial crises when the full enforcement of legal commitments would result in the self-destruction of the financial system. This law-finance paradox tends to be resolved by suspending the full force of law where the survival …


The Law Of Indicators On Women’S Human Rights: Unmet Promises And Global Challenges, Marta Infantino Oct 2012

The Law Of Indicators On Women’S Human Rights: Unmet Promises And Global Challenges, Marta Infantino

Marta Infantino

Global indicators on human rights (HRs) aim to measure HRs scores against HRs standards. In other words, they aim to measure legal phenomena against legal benchmarks.

Despite HRs indicators’ reliance on legal knowledge, lawyers have so far neither made substantial contributions to their production, nor studied in depth the legal implications of their uses. The current state-of-the-art in the world of HRs indicators is the result of an ongoing process led by bureaucrats, economists, statisticians, and activists with limited legal training. It is these actors who are developing a new body of professional knowledge, and a new technology of governance …

A Case Study On Burying Alive Of Two Women In Balochistan, Sohail Ahmed Ansari Advocate Oct 2012

A Case Study On Burying Alive Of Two Women In Balochistan, Sohail Ahmed Ansari Advocate

Sohail Ahmed Ansari Advocate

Violence against women is present in a variety of forms in Pakistan. From domestic abuse & sexual harassment to child marriages and honour killing; a range of anti-women atrocities are carried out. Pakistani women face systematic discrimination from the day they are born. The patriarchal mindset of society refuses to recognize them as human beings deserving of equality, human rights and justice. Unfortunately in some parts of Balochistan a brutal custom of justice prevails; where the women are treated as trading objects. They are being tried without hearing their cause. They are not allowed to plea their case. They are …

Towards A New Transition Economics, Katharina Pistor Sep 2012

Towards A New Transition Economics, Katharina Pistor

Katharina Pistor

In these brief comments I take issue with the thesis expressed in Konstantin Sonin’s conference review that economic transition is a thing of the past. To the contrary, I argue that it has only just begun and so has the process of rethinking the economic theories and models that have framed the subfield of transition economics. Specifically, I point out that the many surprises economists have encountered when confronted with the actual results of the transition process reveal deeper flaws in the analytical framework that informs their analyses and policy prescriptions. If protecting theories and models is of first order …

Towards Determining Legal Parentage By Agreement In Israel, Yehezkel Margalit Jul 2012

Towards Determining Legal Parentage By Agreement In Israel, Yehezkel Margalit

Hezi Margalit

In Israel as in other parts of the world, families, parenthood, and relations between parents and children have changed dramatically over the past few decades. So, too, developments in modern medicine have enhanced the ability to separate sexuality from fertility and parenthood. Many researchers feel that the legal system has not kept pace with these changes, and that traditional models of familial relationships no longer provide adequate tools for dealing with them. In order to bridge the gap between a desired social status and current law, a growing number of parents seek to regulate the status, rights, and obligations of …

Determining Legal Parenthood By Agreement As A Possible Solution To The Challenges Of The New Era, Yehezkel Margalit Jul 2012

Determining Legal Parenthood By Agreement As A Possible Solution To The Challenges Of The New Era, Yehezkel Margalit

Hezi Margalit

Over the past decades, we witnessed changes in the matrimonial and parenting institutions. Medical innovations have further created ethical-legal dilemmas. It is, therefore, essential to create a theory and framework that will determine ways to deal with the resulting dilemma in a fully developed manner. This paper surveys the current, conflicting shifts in family structure and the definition of legal parenthood. In it, I deal with the importance and various aspects of defining legal parenthood. I will also focus on the singularity of this dilemma as it is increasingly apparent in the various fertility treatments. I present the sociological-legal roots …


¿Es Constitucional Proceder Al Corte De Agua Y Luz En Caso De Falta De Pago En Un Condominio?, Julio Eduardo Pozo Sánchez Jul 2012

¿Es Constitucional Proceder Al Corte De Agua Y Luz En Caso De Falta De Pago En Un Condominio?, Julio Eduardo Pozo Sánchez

Julio Eduardo Pozo Sánchez

Uno de los temas que frecuentemente se presenta en la realidad –en especial, cuando de propiedad horizontal y común se refiere (departamentos, condominios, etc.)– es el recorte de los servicios básicos de agua potable y luz eléctrica en los inmuebles de los usuarios-propietarios deudores. El autor analiza tal situación, a partir de la normativa especializada y la profusa jurisprudencia del Tribunal Constitucional, concluyendo que la suspensión de dichos servicios es inconstitucional; pues, por un lado, se estaría afectando un derecho fundamental (el agua potable) y, por el otro, una condición necesaria para la consecución de otros derechos, como el libre …


Statutes And Civil Liability In The Commonwealth And The United States: A Comparative Critique, Neil J. Foster Jun 2012

Statutes And Civil Liability In The Commonwealth And The United States: A Comparative Critique, Neil J. Foster

Neil J Foster

Both the major “common law” systems of private law allow breach of a criminal statute to inform or create civil liability. This paper discusses the differences and similarities between the Commonwealth jurisdictions and the United States of America in this somewhat under-theorised area. The aim is not to resolve all the problems presented by the jurisprudence and commentary on these various forms of action, but to provide a starting point for comparison between the approaches that the two systems have adopted on this issue of implied statutory civil liability. It is hoped that a proper understanding of the development of …
