A Case Study: Law And Emotions Within The Kingdom Of The Netherlands, Nanneke Quik-Schuijt, Irene Broekhuijse Jan 2016

A Case Study: Law And Emotions Within The Kingdom Of The Netherlands, Nanneke Quik-Schuijt, Irene Broekhuijse

University of Baltimore Journal of International Law

Whether you are a Christian or not, you cannot deny the truth of the proverb “[a] brother offended is more unyielding than a strong city, and quarrelling is like the bars of a castle,”1 especially when you study the constitutional relationship between the Netherlands and its former colonies Aruba, Curacao, and St. Maarten.

The Netherlands, Aruba, Curacao and St. Maarten are four countries that together constitute the Kingdom of the Netherlands.2 These countries feel so wronged by one another that emotions often take over. In July 2014, for instance, the Prime Minister of Aruba desperately went on a hunger strike …


A Comparative Empirical Study Of Negotiation In Criminal Proceedings Between Brazil And The United States Of America, Ricardo Gueiros Bernardes Dias Jan 2016

A Comparative Empirical Study Of Negotiation In Criminal Proceedings Between Brazil And The United States Of America, Ricardo Gueiros Bernardes Dias

University of Baltimore Journal of International Law

The present research aims to understand the law in regards to the types of negotiations performed under the law of criminal procedure and to understand how the discursive practice of lawyers can organize social practices from a comparative empirical perspective of Brazil and the United States of America. Thus, the research comparatively investigates the institutional processes for the establishment of truth before the bodies of the judicial branch in Brazil (metropolitan region of Vitória, ES-Brazil) and in the U.S. (California, San Francisco) and focuses on their differences in their criminal negotiation in the special criminal courts and the institution of …


Myths About Women’S Careers In Law, Patricia M. Wald Jan 2013

Myths About Women’S Careers In Law, Patricia M. Wald

University of Baltimore Journal of International Law

Judge Wald discusses several "myths" about women's careers in the law that she has encountered in hers, including the presence of hearty pioneers who despite obstacles and a cold climate pursued satisfying legal careers decades before the "women's movement" of the 1970's; the current status of women in the profession and the impediments to their further advancement, the enduring problems they confront in maintaining the "delicate balance" between marriage, motherhood and careers and the institutional reticence to accommodate their dual role, the need for vigilance to keep the gains they have already made from slipping away, whether men and women …

Hypnosis And The Law, Emmanuel Levin Jan 1979

Hypnosis And The Law, Emmanuel Levin

University of Baltimore Law Forum

An aura of the occult surrounds the mention of hypnosis. As a result, hypnotism is rarely used in court. Although tainted by its sideshow reputation, hypnosis, when applied properly, can substantially aid both the investigation and litigation stages of law enforcement.


Hypnosis And The Law, Paul A. Dorf Jan 1979

Hypnosis And The Law, Paul A. Dorf

University of Baltimore Law Forum

Hypnosis and the law have a rather tedious history. Courts all over the country consistently have held inadmissible statements of a defendant, made out of court, while under hypnosis. The rationale is not too difficult to comprehend. Critics of hypnosis as an investigative tool belittle its reliability. They will present cases in which evidence gained through hypnosis turned out to be unreliable. This reluctance to acceptance still may be fostered by antiquated notions. In short, hypnosis was once looked upon as a kind of vaudeville gag, or worse, as a demonic device to control a person's mind. And while reliability …
