The Legal Contribution To Democratic Disaffection, Brian Christopher Jones

Arkansas Law Review

This Article proceeds in three main parts. Part II describes the origins and definitions of democratic disaffection and questions why the law may have been marginalized when studying the phenomenon. Part III explores the different possible relationships between law, politics, and democratic disaffection by looking at both how courts may contribute to but also counter disaffection.

Losing The Veepstakes: How The Contemporary Vice Presidencies Of Mike Pence And Kamala Harris Renew The Case For Vice-Presidential Independence, Jace Motley

Arkansas Law Review

The concept of an independent American vice presidency is nothing new, and historians and scholars have wrestled with the idea at length. In fact, one of the central debates around the adoption of the Twelfth Amendment—the constitutional amendment that requires separate electoral votes for President and Vice President—was the degree of political independence that the Constitution should afford the vice presidency. Over the past two centuries, multiple attempts have been made to address the office’s shortcomings, as evidenced by the fact that nearly twenty-three percent of the post-Bill of Rights amendments to the Constitution have either directly or indirectly implicated …

Yet, gender-based price discrimination has proven evasive of regulation, outside the scope of judicial reach, and difficult to isolate in terms of hard proof. Even agreeing on …

The Making And Unmaking Of Urban Citizenship In The Maspero Triangle, Nadine Abd El Razek

Theses and Dissertations

Cairo is undergoing a moment of sharpened exclusion and inclusion, with the city’s residents of informal settlements disproportionately experiencing displacement and abrupt interruptions to their social fabric to make way for investment opportunities. In pursuit of achieving the status of a global city, the Egyptian state has effectively widened its practice of structural violence, in order to accumulate capital through dispossession. In the process of doing so, the state has problematized the contested status of urban citizenship, disenfranchising the urban dwellers of Cairo from their right to the city. Following the temporal shifts in the negotiation for urban citizenship, the …

Cross-Border Transfer Pricing Sebagai Tindakan Tax Avoidance, Elleanor Rigby Bangun

"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI

Transfer Pricing refers to pricing transaction within and between enterprises situated in different countries and belong to the same multinational group.
