Abstract:

The circumstances existing nowadays effectively refute a statement that the system of international legal assistance stays on a way of linear progression. Many cases demonstrate a failure of international assistance, as the application of legal fictions becomes more common. This article is an attempt to offer a reasonable opinion on how to take an application of legal fiction within a service of legal process abroad. Based on an analysis of the origin and place of legal fiction, the author concludes that the fiction of service of legal process is a way to level down an existing standard of pro

Abstract:

This article examines the use of symbolic representations in The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida (2022) to narrate the history of Human Rights (HR) violations. The article argues that the genre of fiction has emerged as a cultural medium for promoting the discourse of HR, moving beyond legal, judicial, and political forums. Building upon the concept of Human Rights Literature (HRL) developed by Pramod K. Nayar, the article conducts a critical analysis of the novel. It analyses 1) the use of fictional narratives to depict HR violations, 2) the role of language and cultural discourse that contribut

Anil's Ghost, Michael Ondaatje's haunting novel about the Sri Lankan civil war, probes paradoxes that arise in postcolonial fictional representations of transnational violence. What is conveyed by novels of war and genocide that cast the whole of a decolonial territory as a “deathworld”? The prism of death in Anil's Ghost requires readers of this text to relinquish settled notions of how we as humans understand our finitude and our entanglements with the deaths of others. Postcolonial fictions of violence conjoin historical circumstance with phantasmatic expressions to raise important question

The article examines the essence of legal fiction. Based on an analysis of the current legislation of the Russian Federation, the author has established ways of using legal fiction in civil law. It has been substantiated that legal fiction finds expression in the construction of a legal entity and the institution of fictitious transactions. Legal fiction is used to extend the legal regime of one object to another object, as well as the legal status of one subject to another subject. Legal fiction is used when it is necessary to overcome a situation of legal uncertainty, to recognize as real no

Every historical film must contend with the possibility that its viewers will be scandalized by its mixture of fact and fiction, but no recent historical film has faced such pressure to justify its hybrid nature as Selma has, in large part because no recent film has taken on so momentous and controversial a historical subject: the civil rights marches from Selma to Montgomery that led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act in 1965.

Abstract From a cultural fad of Confederate flags to a spate of schools named after Confederate generals, the 1954 Brown v. Board decision revived the memory of the US Civil War. In their collective effort of “massive resistance,” white southerners considered themselves carrying on the legacy of their Confederate ancestors, rebelling against the federal government and insisting upon states’ rights. In response to this revival, many mid-century writers revised Civil War memory. Ralph Ellison, for example, considered the Brown decision as yet another battle in an ongoing Civil War. The works of

Brown's ambivalent approach to Thomas Jefferson in his novel matches what could be seen in the 1850s as Jefferson's ambivalent approach to human rights as a revolutionary leader. In foregrounding authorial power over his characters, Brown deploys the novel form as a way of examining the implications of the government of man.

The right to a fair trial is a key element of the rule of law.

The obligation to tell the truth as a principle of procedure constitutes the core of a fair trial. The concept of ‘fair trial’ would be a mere fiction if the state would not demand that parties to the case tell the truth in proceedings.

ABSTRACT In 1870, Woodhull & Claflin’s Weekly published the first number of Annie Denton Cridge’s utopian novel entitled “Man’s Rights; or, How Would You Like It?” Scholars have traditionally characterized Cridge’s story as a work of early feminist writing. However, they have overlooked Cridge’s connection to the American Associationist movement, a utopian-socialist movement inspired by the writings of French philosopher, Charles Fourier. Cridge and her husband were inspired by Fourier and the work of American Associationists as early as the 1850s. While many scholars argue that the Associ

Abstract:

The prevailing interpretation of constituent power is taken to be the extra-institutional capacity of a group, typically “the people,” to establish or revise the basic constitutional conditions of a state. Among many contemporary democratic theorists, this is understood as a collective capacity for innovation. This paper excavates an alternative perspective from constituent power’s genealogy. I argue that constituent power is not a creative material power, but is a type of political claim that shapes the collective rights, responsibilities, and identity of “the people.” I do so by recovering T

Abstract:

Written in the aftermath of the civil rights era’s expansive hopes, James Baldwin’s last novel, Just Above My Head (1979), examines a fundamental issue, the choice between hope and skepticism, or prophecy and doubt. Baldwin approaches this issue by questioning two cornerstone ideas of his fiction, the need for prophetic art and this art’s focus on anticipating a renovated society, often pictured in terms adapted from apocalyptic biblical texts and Gospel music lyrics. Just Above My Head is Baldwin’s fullest presentation of this kind of art and its linkage to apocalyptic hopes. He dramatizes th

Abstract:

There are three stages in the development of the securities market in the 20th — early 21st centuries: the paper period, the period of electronization and the period of digitalization. Electronization and digitalization of the stock market have significantly influenced the development of legislation in this area. When the Russian legislator tried to react to the electronic stock market, an internally contradictory term (legal fiction) appeared – an uncertified (book-entry) security. Its use generates a number of problems that have not been resolved to date. It is necessary to distinguish betwe

Abstract:

This article provides an introduction to this special section of James Baldwin Review 7 devoted to Baldwin and film. Jackson considers Baldwin’s distinct approach to film criticism by pairing him with James Agee, another writer who wrote fiction as well as nonfiction in several genres, and who produced a large body of film criticism, especially during the 1940s. While Agee, a white southerner born almost a generation before Baldwin, might seem an unlikely figure to place alongside Baldwin, the two shared a great deal in terms of temperament and vision, and their film writings reveal a great de

This study examines how the American science fiction author Octavia Butler (1947-2006) reflects the issue of how Olamina, the protagonist of Parable of the Talents (1998), attempts to establish a new religion, Earthseed, while changing her dystopian world. Butler is a distinguished novelist who brings to light the narrative on human life and challenges in a society where individuals are treated with discrimination and deprived of their rights, freedom, and independence, and takes a serious note of these topics by offering a representative portrait of the American society through her fiction.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to clarifying the essence of the phenomenon of dormant inheritance in inheritance law. It has been concluded that the right of ownership of the inherited property is acquired by the heir retrospectively from the time the inheritance was opened, regardless of the legal regime of the inherited property. However, until the moment of state registration of the right of ownership, the heir is limited in his/her ability to dispose of the inherited real estate, in particular by alienating it. However, this limitation does not at all indicate that the heir has not acquired the ri

In her recent historical fiction, Take My Hand (2022), New York Times bestselling author Dolen Perkins-Valdez explores the specific manifestations of post-slavery racism, particularly institutional racism. This is vividly portrayed through the experiences of Civil Townsend, a determined new nurse, who witnesses the systematic denial of reproductive rights and autonomy among impoverished African American females. Due to the novel being published within the last two years, there is a significant lack of extensive scholarly analysis on its critical themes. This research employs the postcolonial c

The films are linked by a focus on the past, particularly the antebellum and Civil Rights eras, and a shared commitment to providing historical narratives from African American perspectives. In many ways, they continue in the tradition of the slave narrative/abolitionist melodrama, with Twelve Years a Slave perhaps

Abstract:

Using political and critical theory, this article identifies in James Baldwin a model for citizenship unique to the Black artist who assumed the dual responsibilities of art practice and political activism. I engage with Baldwin’s fiction and his writing about other Black artists working in theater, film, dance, and music during the period of the civil rights movement. Across his career, Baldwin’s prevailing view was that, because of their history, Black artists have the singular, and indeed superlative, capacity to make art as praxis. Baldwin explains that the craft of the Black artist depend

A timely response to the challenge of finding alternatives to target current social concerns comes from Sex Education , a British TV series created by Laurie Nunn for Netflix in 2019. This series’ engagement with Shakespeare fosters a radical and wide-ranging critique of reactionism and a fight for change in terms of teenage sexual liberation, freedom of self-expression

Abstract Alice Dunbar-Nelson’s The Goodness of St. Rocque, and Other Stories (1899) plays with the diminutive description of “charming” often given to local-color writers in order to imagine alternative social relations in an era determined by modes of difference and exclusion. Charm—an aesthetic category most generally understood to be manipulative, feminine, and a distracting accessory to beauty—becomes the method supporting this collection’s challenge to the contemporary discourse of “social equality.” In the late nineteenth century, social equality was a distorted idea meant to accuse thos
