The central argument of this thesis is that the application of antidiscrimination law to the field of housing complements and enriches a right to adequate housing approach in two ways: firstly, it helps to elaborate and expand the rationale and implications of certain components of the right to housing; secondly, it allows us to address human rights concerns that cannot be adequately tackled through the right to housing alone. I reach this conclusion through an analysis of the conceptual and practical implications arising from the application of antidiscrimination norms to the housing context, with a focus on Europe. An enquiry into the philosophical foundations of antidiscrimination law leads me to identify four aims that antidiscrimination norms ought to pursue: eliminating hostility, prejudice, and stigma; respecting cultural diversity and avoiding misrecognition; transforming existing structures; and ensuring a fair distribution of important goods in society. Applying this framework to the field of housing, I find that various antidiscrimination legal concepts can be mobilised to achieve those four aims, among which direct and indirect discrimination, discriminatory harassment, and reasonable accommodation. I also defend the usefulness of incorporating and mobilising socioeconomic disadvantage as a prohibited ground of discrimination to this end. I then build on two case studies, housing segregation, on the one hand, and housing commodification and financialisation, on the other hand, to further demonstrate the contribution of antidiscrimination law to specific housing issues. Finally, I propose several procedural and substantive avenues to achieve diversity-conscious, all-inclusive housing policies, looking in particular at equality duties and housing decommodification policies. The legal analysis developed throughout the thesis, based on a human rights law methodology, is enriched through references to political and legal philosophy and to urban sociology. ; (DROI - Sciences juridiques) -- UCL, 2020

This article aims to reframe the administrative detention debate, not to resolve it. In doing so, however, it aspires to advance the discussion by highlighting the critical substantive choices embedded in calls for legal procedural reform and by pointing the way toward appropriately tailored legislative options. It argues that the current debate's focus on procedural and institutional questions of how to detain suspected terrorists has been allowed to overshadow the questions of why administratively detain, and whom to detain. Not only are the answers to these questions at least as important as the procedural rules in safeguarding and balancing liberty and security, but their resolution should precede analysis of the procedural issues. The soundness of any specific procedural architecture depends heavily on its purpose and on the substantive determinations it is expected to make.

The problem of studying forensic law sources, as an element of the national legal system, is becoming urgent today. By studying their systemic properties, the possibility of scientific forecasting in the development of the legal system tendency, determining courses of the most effective steps to improve the entire mechanism of legal regulation of forensic relations' complex is increasing. The article purpose is to conduct research on the prerequisites for systematizing the modern array of the forensic science legal basis in Ukraine and to identify theoretical and applied peculiarities for the formation of the general part content in the system of forensic law sources. To uncover the problem and subject of examination, as well as to accomplish the tasks, the synthesis method was used, which helped to identify the main areas of legal regulation and the system of general forensic relations, the formal legal method helped to clarify the content of forensic legislation legal norms. Attention is drawn to the fact that the legal construction of the general part of the current Law on judicial examination from the point of view of legal technique in general and rule-making in particular is an example of legislative anachronism in which neither substantive nor formal requirements of the culture of law-making are properly observed, what directly complicates its implementation, compliance and application. The need for injunctions of a general nature is emphasized with the purpose for a better understanding of the essence, objectives and content of specific injunctions. In general provisions of the basic act of forensic legislation it is offered to combine injunctions that define: the concept, terminology, content, legal basis, objectives, principles of forensic activity and their content, subject and object composition of forensic examination, as well as the powers of state, interdepartmental, departmental and public bodies on state regulation and forensic management. It has been established that the content of most sources of forensic law testifies to the differentiation of their injunctions, which can be carried out in a special part according to three generic criteria: the type of forensic activity entity (based on departmental subordination, form of ownership); type of forensic examination; type of legal proceedings. Arguments on the lack of a single scientifically based system of interconnected regulatory legal acts of forensic legislation are presented, which, as a result, created the social prerequisites for its systematization in the form of codification. The course of the highest degree of legislation perfection is substantiated, which should be presented in the form of Forensic Code of Ukraine. ; Розглянуто загальні положення актів законодавства про судово-екс-пертну діяльність та виокремлено складові їхніх приписів: поняття, тер-мінологію, зміст, правову основу, завдання, принципи судово-експертної діяльності та їх зміст, суб'єктний та об'єктний склад судової експертизи, також повноваження державних, міжвідомчих, відомчих і громадських органів у сфері державного регулювання й управління судово-експертною діяльністю.

Harmonized Standards ("HSs") have been essential to the functioning of the internal market and they increasingly substitute legislation in achieving EU policy objectives, such as establishing the Digital Single Market. This has prompted a "juridification" of the standardization process, which has strengthened its legitimacy and brought HSs within the scope of EU law. The nature and legal effect of HSs remain nonetheless unclear. In light of the recent ECJ case law, this article argues that HSs must now be regarded as atypical implementing acts, imputable to the Commission and subject to a limited judicial review. The incorporation of HSs under EU law triggers a paradigm shift in their legality and legitimacy, no longer exclusively based on their voluntary, non-binding character. Holding the Commission legally accountable for HSs is essential to ensure their compatibility with EU law, and to connect another atypical implementation process to the Union legal order.

While narrative is a much-used term in environmental law scholarship, it is often used rather indiscriminately and interchangeably with other terms such as framing and discourse. The current article sets out to examine the various ways in which narrative features in the existing literature with a view to encouraging more critical and reflective usage. It also advocates for narrative, both to connect with the marginalised and to inject passion and emotion into environmental law – elements that can easily be lost in a discipline heavy with legislation and case law turning on fine aspects of legal doctrine. However, in the end it argues the need for a careful balance, with narrative and emotion playing a part, but not stealing the show.

Today, a district court's habeas corpus review of the constitutionality of a state criminal conviction and the Supreme Court's direct review of the same question are nearly identical. Last Term, in Wright v. West, an otherwise mundane criminal procedure case, the Supreme Court rewrote the question presented to ask whether the parity between federal habeas corpus and direct appellate review should be destroyed. The Court proposed abandoning in habeas corpus an important trait shared by the two modes of review – de novo consideration of legal and mixed legal-factual questions. To those who value meaningful habeas corpus review, the Court's order augured Apocalypse Now. The seeming momentousness of the Court's action was enhanced by its timing. Just three weeks before, the Senate had come within a few votes of ending a Republican filibuster and passing a habeas corpus reform bill, previously adopted by the House, that rejected a Bush Administration proposal to replace de novo review with deferential review of state court determinations of law. The Court's sua sponte order requesting briefing on a question presented by neither the parties nor the case thus arrogated to the Court an issue that the political branches otherwise might have, but have not since, settled. Despite ominous signals from the Court that pervasive change was afoot, the Court unanimously dispatched Wright on the mundane criminal procedure issue initially presented by the parties. But the views expressed injustice Thomas' plurality opinion (joined by Chief Justice Rehnquist and Justice Scalia) and the Court's nearly simultaneous grants of certiorari in two cases raising similar issues may well portend Apocalypse Next Time. That Justice O'Connor (joined by Justices Blackmun and Stevens) responded to Justice Thomas' singular brief in support of deferential review with a point-by-point refutation – supported on one of those points by Justice Kennedy's separate opinion – only enhances the sense that battle lines are forming for an impending habeas corpus Armageddon. It is against that possibility that this Article is deployed.

The Court has struggled for well over a century with the issue of who has final authority to define what is a "crime" for purposes of applying procedural protections guaranteed by the Constitution in criminal cases. Just as labeling an action "civil" may allow the government to circumvent constitutional criminal procedure entirely, so labeling a fact an "affirmative defense" or a "sentencing factor" instead of an element of the offense may allow the government to escape constitutional criminal procedure selectively, bypassing the burden of proof, pleading, and jury requirements that would otherwise apply to an offense element. In its decision in Apprendi v. New Jersey, the Court put to rest one aspect of this ongoing battle about the significance of labels, declaring that any fact, other than a prior conviction, that increases the penalty for an offense beyond the prescribed statutory maximum must be submitted to a jury and proven beyond a reasonable doubt. But even as Apprendi settled one dispute, it uncovered others. The Court also recognized the possibility that legislatures might simply amend some of the many criminal statutes affected by this rule, in order to avoid full-blown trial adjudication of sentence-enhancing facts. Our examination of the response by every state legislature and Congress to seven major Supreme Court decisions allowing a change in substantive criminal law to effectuate a relaxation in procedures indicates that there will, in fact, be post-Apprendi evasion. Stating only that any effort to avoid the Apprendi rule by redrafting criminal statutes will be subject to "constitutional scrutiny," the Court invited litigation over the constitutionality of substantive criminal law, but offered few clues about what shape that constitutional scrutiny should take. We take up this challenge. Drawing guidance from the rich and varied history of constitutional regulation of the substantive criminal law under many different constitutional provisions (including the Court's most recent efforts to police ...

In November 2001, the University of Michigan hosted one of the first dialogues among international trade law scholars and scientists in the field of risk assessment with the goal of identifying critical areas of misunderstanding between the two fields. This article discusses key issues that need to be addressed in order to better harmonize the scientific and legal systems of evidence within the context of trade disputes and trade law and presents the recommendations that emerged from the Michigan meeting.

BACKGROUND: Occupational health laws must recognise the constitutional requirement of substantive equality, and its role in 'the progressive realisation' of the rights provided by Section 27. OBJECTIVES: Our main aim is to review current South African occupational health law (vis-à-vis workers' constitutional rights) in relation to hearing loss. We focus on gaps in the law regarding occupational hearing loss in South Africa. METHOD: Our review of legal texts relies on experience as a methodological device augmented by the use of a critical science. Guided by literature or evidence synthesis methodologies, South African primary and secondary laws were reviewed along with unpublished (non-peer-reviewed) grey literature. An established six-step framework guided our thematic analysis. A semantic approach aided the critical interpretation of data using the Bill of Rights as a core analytical framework. RESULTS: Four themes are discussed: (1) separate and unequal regulatory frameworks; (2) monologic foregrounding of noise; (3) minimisation of vestibular disorders; and (4) dilution of ototoxic agents. The highly divided legal framework of occupational health and safety in South Africa perpetuates a monologic 'excessive noise-hearing loss' paradigm that has implications for the rights of all workers to equal protections and benefits. There is a need to harmonise occupational health and safety law, and expand the scope of hearing-protection legislation to include the full range of established ototoxic hazards. CONCLUSION: Occupational audiology is dominated by efforts to address noise-induced hearing loss. A 'noise' despite the reality of workers' exposures to a range of ototoxic stressors that act synergistically on the ear, resulting in audio-vestibular disorders.

Modern biotechnology products have provided considerable benefits for improving human life and well-being, both in the agriculture, food, industry and human health sectors, as well as in the environmental field. But there are concerns that modern biotechnology products, in addition to providing benefits, also have risks that have adverse impacts on the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity and human health. Therefore, steps need to be taken, both legally, administratively, and technology to ensure the level of biological safety. This study aims to explain and analyze the safety of Genetically Modified Organism or GMO according to international law and their implementation in Indonesia. The problem approach used in this research is normative law (library research). The data used are secondary data obtained from international, national legal regulations and literature data related to material that supports discussion of the problem. Analysis of the data used is descriptive qualitative. The results of research on food safety of Genetically Modified Organism or GMO according to international law, are regulations on food safety of genetically engineered products regulated in the Convention on Biological Diversity and the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety. The laws and regulations governing GMO food in Indonesia are good enough because they have carried out the mandate and did not deviate from the biodiversity convention and Cartagena protocol by passing legislation regulations from the legal level to the decision level of the head of BPOM. It's just that for rules regarding GMO food that is sold in retail, or that is not in the form of packaging, there is still no technical rules that can answer the problems in the field.

The police are part of the criminal justice system as contained in the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code and other laws, this system has the power to conduct investigations and investigations of crimes. The investigative authority is applied to the perpetrator in a criminal act or the investigative authority is enforced, and the case has been coordinated with the public prosecutor since the first wave of investigation. The same mistake. The criminal cases studied in this paper are based on the author's research data at the Directorate of General Criminal Investigation, Sub-Directorate IV of the Jambi Regional Police. This involves the Police Report Letter No: LP/B/210/VIII/2018/Jambi/SPKT "C" which contains the alleged crime of rape or intercourse with a minor. Perpetrators are threatened with articles 81 and 82 of the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 35 of 2014 (Revised Law on Child Protection of the Republic of Indonesia Number 23 of 2002). Investigators may still encounter obstacles in investigating criminal acts of raping a suspect or having sex with a minor. Not all criminal cases of rape or sexual intercourse of minors that are handled at the investigation level can be transferred to the court by the prosecutor as a public prosecutor in the process of further investigation. In this case, investigators at Sub-Directorate IV of the Directorate of General Criminal Investigation (Ditreskrimum) of the Jambi Regional Police also have the authority to not continue the investigation process or stop the investigation (SP3) in this criminal case based on considerations that the criminal case processed is not a criminal act, lack of evidence or other legal considerations. The objectives of this study are: First of all, I want to know and analyze how investigators handle cases of child rape perpetrators (case investigation, police report number: B. 2018 / Jambi / SPKT "C"). Child rape is (Police Report Number: B.210 / VIII/2018 / Jambi / SPKT "C"). The research method used in this research is Socio Legal Research, which is studying the practice of law or legislation that applies in the social life of the community. Descriptive research specifications, namely describing and analyzing a legal event that has occurred by describing the existing events.

Writers have expressed the view that man's interest in projects for establishing perpetual peace is as old as man's participation in warfare. We cannot be certain that Europe can be considered the cradle of such projects for peace, although the Greek city states certainly elaborated a complex system of treaty relationships between themselves to that end. Europe was not to see a like network of sophisticated treaty relationships until the 19th century. Supporting these elaborate treaty networks was the fact that the Greeks enjoyed a common religious-legal and linguistic substratum which tended to mitigate the harshness of the intense intercity rivalries and enmities. The Greeks, as in so many other excursions in thought, were the architects of the modern array of different kinds of political treaties, e.g., of alliance, confederation, federation and, from the 4th century B.C., peace treaties of unlimited duration. In particular, religious leagues were established for the common defence of a shared and sacred shrine. Such were the Amphictyonys of the 5th century B.C. The religious bond between the cities parties to such compacts extended into the political sphere so that the city states bound thereby became confederated by the terms of the amphictyony, as was the case of the confederate association for the protection of the great shrine at Delphi.
