The Human Rights of Aliens under International and Comparativelaw (International Studies in Human Rights)
By State University of Rio de Janeiro Staff

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Springer
Number Of Pages:  352
Publication Date:  2001-02-20
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  9041115501
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9789041115508
Binding:  Hardcover


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

This volume deals with the basic human rights of aliens from the perspective of international and comparative law. It examines the rules regarding treatment of aliens and the extent to which these rules have been adopted in the domestic legislation of more than 40 different states.

It aims to achieve two basic goals: 1) to define the status of aliens under international law, that is, which rights are granted to every person by international instruments; and 2) to establish whether this set of rules has been adopted by the domestic legislation of the states under review.

The author classifies the basic human rights of aliens into seven different categories, namely: 1) fundamental rights; 2) private rights; 3) social and cultural rights; 4) economic rights; 5) political rights; 6) public rights; and 7) procedural rights. For each of these categories she reviews opinions of international legal commentators, decisions of international and regional tribunals, as well as national legislation, domestic court decisions, and opinions of local authorities.

ISBN-10 / ASIN:  9041115080
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9789041115089
Binding:  Hardcover


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, passed in 1989, was the first universal treaty dedicated solely to the promotion and protection of the interests of children. In its first decade the Convention achieved near-universal ratification and is now the most widely ratified human rights treaty ever. In addition, as a consequence of its influence, children's human rights have been mainstreamed and are now prioritised at all levels within the United Nations and other regional organisations. This book provides the first comprehensive overview of the first decade of the Convention. It also brings together leading scholars and activists who place the Convention in a wider context and revisit contemporary debates and controversies in children's rights to assess the extent to which these issues have been influenced by the Convention in its first decade.

Organized Crime in the Netherlands
By Cyrille Fijnaut

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Springer
Number Of Pages:  264
Publication Date:  1998-09-17
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  9041110275
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9789041110275
Binding:  Paperback


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

Nowadays organized crime is a very important political issue in Europe. However, scientific studies on the nature and seriousness of this problem are very scarce in the member states of the Council of Europe and the European Union. This national study on organized crime in The Netherlands was prepared for the Commission of Inquiry of the Dutch Parliament that recently made an investigation into the regulation and use of undercover policing. It not only contains an analysis of the contemporary manifestations of traditional organized crime, but also answers the question whether organized crime has already penetrated legitimate sectors of the economy or not. In addition special attention is paid to the role of the liberal professions and the banking system; and to the use of counter-strategies by criminal groups (corruption, intimidation, violence, disinformation, etc.).

International Institutional Law: Unity Within Diversity
By Henry G. Schermers, Niels M. Blokker

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Brill Academic Publishers
Number Of Pages:  1340
Publication Date:  2004-03
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  9004138285
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9789004138285
Binding:  Paperback


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

The current decade has been characterized by a resurgence of interest in the law of public international organizations. This fourth, revised edition of International Institutional Law covers the most recent developments in the field. Although public international organizations such as the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the European Union have broadly diverging objectives, powers, fields of activity and numbers of member states, they share a wide variety of institutional problems. In this study, the law of individual organizations is not described separately. Instead the book offers a comparative analysis of the institutional law of international organizations. It includes comparative chapters on the rules and practices concerning, for example, membership, decision-making, financing, legal order, supervision and sanctions, legal status and external relations. The book has been designed to appeal to both academics and practitioners.

The Top Ten Death Penalty Myths: The Politics of Crime Control
By Rudolph J. Gerber, John M. Johnson

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Praeger Publishers
Number Of Pages:  256
Publication Date:  2007-11-30
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0275997804
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780275997809
Binding:  Hardcover


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

The death penalty remains one of the most controversial issues in the United States. Its proponents claim many things in their defense of its continued application. For example, they claim that it deters crime, that death by lethal injection is painless and humane, that it is racially neutral, and that it provides "closure" to families of the victims. In this comprehensive review of the major death penalty issues, the authors systematically dismantle each one of these myths about capital punishment in a hard-hitting critique of how our social, political, and community leaders have used fear and myth (symbolic politics) to misrepresent the death penalty as a public policy issue. They successfully demonstrate how our political and community leaders have used myth and emotional appeals to misrepresent the facts about capital executions. Successive chapters address the following topics: the notion of community bonding, the expectation of effective crime fighting, the desire for equal justice, deterrence, the hope for fidelity to the Constitution, the claim of error-free justice, closure, retribution, cost-effectiveness, and the messianic desires of some politicians. In each of these areas the authors quote from death penalty advocates making these claims and then proceed to analyze and ultimately dismember the claimed advantages of the death penalty.

ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780313320958
Binding:  Hardcover


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

Part of the enduring fascination of the Salem witch trials is the fact that, to date, no one theory has been able to fully explain the events that ravaged Salem in 1692. Countless causes, from ergot-infected rye to actual demonic posession, have been offered to explain why the accusations and erratic behavior of seven village girls left hundreds accused, over 20 dead, and the townspeople of eastern Massachusetts shaken. Through a multitude of resources, this authoritative source explores this tumultuous episode in early American history, including the religious and political climate of Puritan New England; the testimony and examinations given at the trials; the accusers and their relationships to the accused; major interpretations of the events, from the 17th century to the present day; and the aftermath of the trials and their impact on later generations. This jam-packed documentary and reference guide includes:

Five thematic essays exploring the event, including historical background, interpretations, and aftermath
biographical sketches of every major player involved in the trials, from ministers to afflicted girls
fifty primary document excerpts, including petitions, letters, and revealing trial testimony
a chronology of events
an annotated bibliography of print and nonprint sources for further research
a glossary of key names, terms, and language used at the trials
over 25 photos of depictions and historical sites A must-have for any student of American history, this resource gives a unique glimpse into the 17th century politics, religious culture, and gender issues that created the Salem witchcraft episode, and gives context to an impact that still resonates today, in everything from modern political life to popular culture.

Crimes and Trials of the Century [Two Volumes]
By Steven Chermak, Frankie Y. Bailey

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Greenwood Press
Number Of Pages:  752
Publication Date:  2007-10-30
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0313341095
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780313341090
Binding:  Hardcover


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

The public seems fascinated by crime. News and popular media sources provide a steady diet of stories, footage, and photographs about the misfortunes of others in order to satisfy this appetite. Murder, rape, terrorism, gang-related activities, and other violent crimes are staples. Various crime events are presented in the news every day, but most of what is covered is quickly forgotten. In contrast, some crimes left a lasting impression on the American psyche. Some examples include the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, the bombing of the Murrah building in Oklahoma City, and the September 11th attacks. These events, and other significant cases, are immediately or on reflection talked about as "crimes of the century." They "earn" this title not only because they generate enormous publicity, but because of their impact on American culture: they help define historical eras, influence public opinion about crime, change legal process, and focus concern about important social issues. They seep into many other shared aspects of social life: public conversation, fiction and nonfiction, songs, poems, films, and folk tales. This set focuses on the many "crimes of the century" of the last 100 years. In vivid detail, each crime is laid out, the investigation is discussed, the media reaction is described, the trial (if there was one) is narrated, the resolution is explored, and the significance of the case in terms of its social, political, popular, and legal relevance is examined. Illustrations and sidebars are scattered throughout to enliven the text; print and electronic resources for further reading and research are offered for those wishing to dig deeper. Cases include the Scopes Monkey trial, Ted Bundy, Timothy McVeigh, O.J. Simpson, Leopold and Loeb, Fatty Arbuckle, Al Capone, JonBenet Ramsey, the Lacy Peterson murder, Abu Ghraib, Columbine and more.

The Forensic Evaluation of Traumatic Brain Injury: A Handbook for Clinicians and Attorneys
By Ph.D., Gregory Murrey

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  CRC
Number Of Pages:  184
Publication Date:  2000-03-29
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0849320356
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780849320354
Binding:  Hardcover


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

Few medical and legal professionals would have trouble locating a book on traumatic brain injury and forensic neuropsychology. But to locate a text on the forensic assessment process and clinical issues of TBI is akin to finding a needle in a haystack. Very few, if any, works exist on the subject. The Forensic Evaluation of Traumatic Brain Injury: A Handbook for Clinicians and Attorneys fills this void. It provides both the clinician involved in forensic examinations and the legal professional involved in litigation or legal proceedings of personal injury with a general overview of the legal issues and assessment process in TBI cases. The book begins with an overview of key issues involved in the forensic assessment of TBI, including definitions and medical diagnostic terminology of interest to the forensic examiner and legal professional. Subsequent chapters provide an overview of the neurologic, neuropsychological and psychological forensic assessment process specific to brain injury cases. The final portion of the book focuses on the forensic examiner as expert witness.

Toward an Evolutionary Regime for Spectrum Governance: Licensing or Unrestricted Entry?
By William J. Baumol, Dorothy L. Robyn

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Brookings Institution Press
Number Of Pages:  85
Publication Date:  2006-02-15
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0815708491
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780815708490
Binding:  Paperback


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

Until recently, the Federal Communications Commission licensed the airwaves to control interference via a cumbersome administrative process. Now, just as the FCC is testing market mechanisms to allocate licenses, there is pressure to open up the spectrum to all comers. Advocates of spectrum "commons" maintain that new technologies such as spread spectrum and "smart" radio make licensing unnecessary and impractical.

Here, William J. Baumol and Dorothy Robyn evaluate two options for spectrum governance: a market approach that treats licensed access to the spectrum as private property and a commons (or unlicensed) approach. They conclude that while neither is perfect, a commons regime would have severe shortcomings, including the creation of powerful vested interests. They embrace a modified market regime, in which the government could change the rules if necessary to accommodate currently unforeseeable changes in technology and other circumstances.

Regulation Misled by Misread Theory: Perfect Competition and Competition-Imposed Price Discrimination
By William J. Baumol

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  AEI Press
Number Of Pages:  52
Publication Date:  2006-03-25
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0844713902
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780844713908
Binding:  Paperback


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Book Description:

Regulation Misled by Misread Theory changes how we think about economics. Standard economics has long held that firms can price discriminate only when they have monopoly power. Antitrust authorities and other regulators are thus tempted to use the existence of price discrimination as one indicator that a firm should possibly be subject to government investigation. In this monograph Professor Baumol shows that price discrimination not only exists in competitive markets but sometimes is a crucial feature of them. Baumol concludes by urging regulators to tread carefully when applying theory to policy.

Antitrust Policy And Vertical Restraints (AEI-Brookings Joint Center for Regulatory Studies)
By Robert William Hahn

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Publisher:  Brookings Institution Press
Number Of Pages:  96
Publication Date:  2006-07-15
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0815733917
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780815733911
Binding:  Paperback


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Product Description:

Antitrust law is intended to protect consumer welfare and foster competition. At first glance, however, it is often unclear whether certain business practices have positive or detrimental effects. Some activities that appear anticompetitive can actually prove beneficial to consumers. In Antitrust Policy and Vertical Restraints leading law and economics scholars take a hard look at how vertical restraints limit the conditions under which firms may purchase, sell, or resell a good or service. Vertical restraints can be defined as any arrangement between firms operating at different levels of the manufacturing or distribution chain that restricts the conditions under which such firms may purchase, sell or resell. Business tying and bundling practices, as one example, often come under scrutiny for depriving consumers of choice and driving up prices. In practice, however, bundling can lower costs and increase convenience. In order to formulate efficient policy, we must be able to identify and limit those practices that are likely to do more harm than good. It is critical that policymakers and analysts know which vertical restraints are likely to harm consumers more than they benefit competition. The authors, representing both sides of the debate over tying practices, provide a broad and informed perspective on this important issue. Contributors: Dennis Carlton (University of Chicago), David Evans (University College London), Bruce Kobayashi (George Mason University), and Michael Waldman (Cornell University).
