Abstract:

On May 14, 2014, three white Boston city councilors refused to vote to approve a resolution honoring the sixtieth anniversary of Brown v. the Board of Education because, as one remarked, “I didn’t want to get into a debate regarding forced busing in Boston.” Against the recent national proliferation of celebrations of civil rights milestones and legislation, the controversy surrounding the fortieth anniversary of the court decision that mandated busing to desegregate Boston public schools speaks volumes about the historical memory of Boston’s civil rights movement. Two highly acclaimed contemporary works of children’s literature set during or inspired by Boston’s desegregation busing plan reflect and respond to the ongoing battle over the history and memory of Boston’s civil rights movement and its enduring racial legacy: Busing Brewster, an illustrated children’s book for young readers, written by Richard Michelson and illustrated by R. G. Roth; and Gold Dust, a middle-grade novel for adolescents by Chris Lynch. Both works offer representations of an overtly racist past, produced in a historical moment when prevailing ideologies of color blindness and postracialism suggest not only that racism is passé, but that any attempt to redress past racism that takes race into account is itself racist and unjust. Busing Brewster and Gold Dust offer equivocal reflections on urban decline and racial transformations at the turn of the twenty-first century. Both works have as much to tell us about the historical memory of Boston’s desegregation efforts as they do about contemporary understandings of race and social justice.

Abstract:

On the basis of the analysis of the pandect doctrine, modern theory of Russian and foreign civil law, Russian civil legislation development concepts, the article deals with evolution of understanding of general and special attributes of some corporeal rights (ownership right; limited rights). The author considers reasonableness of mixed, palliative structures of the subjective civil legal rights combining some attributes of both real, and liability rights: real/liability rights. Based on results of the conducted research of civil legislation sources and civil law science the author comes to the following conclusions. The Roman Law did not consider separate institutes (emphyteusis, superficies, easement, ownership right) in the context of the uniform concept of the corporeal rights system. Sampling analysis of pandects has shown that pandectists did not know most attributes of corporeal rights currently used in the scientific literature, and the nature of exposition of pandects does not in any way testify to the uniformity of statement of the concept and specific features of corporeal rights. At the same time the Roman Law and the pandect doctrine laid an essential groundwork for subsequent generalisation and systematization of the most commonly encountered and recurrent attributes of corporeal rights which in the modern science are commonly interpreted as general identification attributes of the corporeal right. The author denies reasonableness and expediency of existence of real/liability legal rights. The article demonstrates historical features of formation of the corporeal right sub-branch in Russia, identifies general tendencies of development of this legislation branch and corporeal right science at the present stage. The methodology of the article is based on general scientific methods of deduction and historicism, special civil research methods: comparative/legal, functional and dogmatic ones.

Abstract:

The relevance of this study is due to the necessity to ensure the proper exercise of subjective civil rights in the field of inheritance law. Protection in inheritance is related to the general right to protection. Due to the peculiarities of inheritance law as a sub-branch of civil law, it has its own specifics, which is manifested primarily in the definition of special ways to protect violated unrecognized or challenged rights. In addition, the protection of the rights of heirs takes place only within the inheritance relationship, which is characterized by a long nature. The purpose of the article is to identify the features of protection of subjective civil rights of heirs in the field of inheritance. This necessitates the use of special methodological approaches that will identify the characteristics of protection of the rights of heirs, as well as research methods such as dogmatic, formal-logical, systematic, comparative law. The article analyses the recognition of the right of ownership of inherited property in court and proves that this exceptional method of protection is used if there are obstacles to the notarization of inheritance rights. The most typical and widespread special ways to protect the rights of heirs are considered: removal from the right to inherit, invalidation of the will, change of the order of obtaining the right to inherit, reduction of the size of the obligatory share in the inheritance. The outlined issues were not widely covered in the legal literature, as the attention of scholars was mainly in the perspective of clarifying the legal nature of protection and defence, the ratio of forms and methods of protection of subjective civil rights, analysis of general methods of protection of subjective civil rights. That is why this work is an important contribution to outlining the issue of inheritance law and attracting due attention of the scientific community.

Abstract:

AbstractThis essay defines the problem of bildungsroman hermeneutics for literary criticism and social policy in the post–civil rights era. Examining critical responses to Sandra Cisneros’s The House on Mango Street, it argues that the traditional bildungsroman exerts a powerful hold on interpretations of minority mobility. Bildungsroman hermeneutics understands social relations as organized around individual development. This model undermines the collective politics many critics sense in Cisneros’s text and obscures her revisions of the genre. Furthermore, bildungsroman hermeneutics intersects with neoconservative arguments that helped to roll back civil rights reforms and stymie government interventions. To address the inequalities enduring after civil rights we must circumvent an individual-centered template that has shaped plots of narrative and social change. Part of a broader effort to decenter the bildungsroman (including the work of Maxine Hong Kingston and Gloria Naylor), Cisneros’s text can help us do so, if we can learn to read it otherwise.

Abstract:

This research was conducted to find out how to limit the right to be elected by citizens who work as Civil Servants and how should the protection of the right to be elected by citizens who work as Civil Servants. This research uses a normative approach and is descriptive in nature. Methods of data collection using literature study and document analysis. Data analysis was performed using qualitative analysis methods. The results of the study show (1) restrictions on the right to be elected for citizens who work as Civil Servants are excessive restrictions and not ideal because in order to exercise the right to be elected, he must lose his right to work without any guarantee of getting a new job, and (2) Protection The ideal for the right to be elected by civil servants is by changing the time of resignation from civil servant status, where civil servants who have just registered as candidates in elections or regional elections simply temporarily resign from their civil servant status, and only resign permanently after the election process is complete. Arrangements like this have implications for the realization of restrictions on political rights that do not endanger the essence of the rights themselves, where restrictions can still be made but there is maximum protection for the right to vote for civil servants. Having the option to submit an active application again if not elected will be a differentiator and a sign that the state provides maximum human rights protection for every citizen, including those who work as civil servants.

Abstract:

In the conditions of the current world crisis, the urgent need for the further development of Ukraine in the conditions of a market economy and its economic integration with the European Union, the isues of legal regulation of civil turnover are gaining relevance. To solve them, it is necessary to define the concept of the object of civil turnover, because, as it is rightly noted in the legal literature, it is important for a lawyer to understand not only whether a certain substrate is an object of civil rights, but also whether it is an object civil turnover. The first allows to determine the content of the legal relationship that could be formed in relation to the corresponding good. The second makes it possible to determine the range of circumstances that allow or prevent the transition, transfer, alienation of such goods in society. The purpose of the study is to determine the objects of civil turnover. Methodologically, the very concept of civil turnover was considered, on the basis of which its object was determined. With the help of such a method of scientific knowledge as a conclusion by analogy, it was established that the object of civil turnover and the object of legal succession are different legal phenomena. The result of the study is the definition of the objects of civil turnover and the establishment of their distinctive features from other, similar concepts. It was determined that every object of civil turnover is an object of civil law, and vice versa, every object of civil law is an object of civil turnover, thereby questioning the truth of the popular saying "the object of civil rights cannot be that, which is not defensive. It was established that the object of turnover is precisely the objects of civil law. Subjective rights (obligations) can be considered objects of civil turnover only if they perform the function of objects of civil rights, that is, in the “right to right” construction. In all other cases, the dynamics of rights is a form of civil turnover. The legal form of civil turnover is implemented in the order of legal establishment or legal succession. Only the objects of the latter are subjective rights and obligations, but not objects of civil rights.

Abstract:

While more diverse children's literature about youth activism is available than ever before, popular picturebooks often perpetuate problematic tropes about the Civil Rights Movement. In this article, we conduct a critical content analysis of the award-winning picturebook The Youngest Marcher and contrast the book's content to a critical race counterstory of the Movement focused on the collective struggle for justice in the face of racial violence. We argue for the need to engage students in civic media literacy through a critical race lens and offer ways to nuance the limited narratives often found in children's literature.

Abstract:

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 Black writers such as James Baldwin, Langston Hughes, Pauli Murray, and Margaret Walker, as well as white writers such as Robert Lowell, Carson McCullers, Flannery O’Connor, and Robert Penn Warren, revise Lost Cause cultural narratives as they reconstruct four sites of Civil War memory: monuments, schools, textbooks, and grandparents. Writers in the twenty-first century have extended the interest in Civil War memory, from the essays of Ta-Nehisi Coates to the plays of Suzan-Lori Parks, to the fiction of George Saunders to the poetry of Natasha Trethewey and Kevin Young. The return of Civil War memory in twenty-first-century literature anticipates and represents the resurgence of civil rights protest against ongoing, state-sanctioned racial violence.

Abstract:

The Polish legal system excludes certain categories of persons from the group have the right to vote (and thus they do not have the right to be elected). The Constitution of the art. Paragraph 62. 2 provides that the right to vote is not entitled to such persons deprived of their civil rights by a final court judgment, or as a result of the institution of criminal law – one from the penalty. Moreover, the 0right to vote shall not be entitled persons deprived of their voting rights by a final judgment of the Court of State. It is a spontaneous deprivation of voting rights (while leaving other public rights), a penalty adjudicated by the Court in resolving the legal liability of persons holding the highest positions in the state. The existence of the measure or criminal penalties in the literature is treated as so. „Clauses negative” because the cause deprivation of electoral rights. Moreover, these reasons for limiting the scope of these rights are regarded as „socially and morally justified”. In the catalog of punitive measures set out in art. 39 k.k. vain to seek the penalty in the form of deprivation of voting rights for public authorities. According to the wording of art. 40 § 2 k.k. it is only one of several elements that make up the substance of a measure of criminal deprivation of civil rights. Considerations made this show that the deprivation of civil rights as a criminal and the deprivation of voting rights as a punishment take on major importance for the practical implementation of symptoms and the electoral rights of these reflections are not purely theoretical.

Abstract:

Abstract Theoretically, judges have the ex-officio rights to protect the rights of women and children in divorce cases. This study examines the judges' considerations in applying Ex officio rights associated with the plaintiff's profession as Pegawai Negeri Sipil (PNS, Indonesian Civil Servant) and non-civil servant. This normative legal research employed a case study and conceptual approach. The data collection techniques of this study were obtained from interviews, document content, and literature review. This study highlighted several essential points. First, the judges’ reasoning for applying ex-officio rights, which is referred to the Article 41 paragraph (c) of Law Number 16 of 2019 and the Decree of the Chairman of the Supreme Court Number: KMA/032/SK/IV/2006 concerning the Enforcement of Guidelines for Administration of Justice in Court. Second, the judges’ decision did not contradict the Ultra Petita principle since the considerations are based on logical arguments and facts such as the husband’s earning capacity, the wife’s devotion, and the wife’s loyalty. The legal basis of judges' decisions on divorce cases involving civil servants is similar to ordinary divorce cases. The divorce case is only distinguished by the addition of the regulations concerning civil servants in the divorce case of civil servants. Keywords: Ex-Officio, Ex-wife Rights, Judges’ Considerations, Talak, Civil Servant

This article aims at presenting and demonstrating through Equiano's story how the Traditional Africans of pre-colonial Africa perceived and dealt with the issue of human rights on the one hand; and on the other hand, it examines how the question of the rights of Black Americans are perceived and treated in American society today. In doing so, the study has used the theory of post-colonialism and comparative literature to analyze and interpret the two situations. As expected results, study has demonstrated that traditional Africans had established some social norms and rules which protected and guaranteed the basic rights of the populations without discrimination. However, it has been able to show that in the United States of today, portrayed as one of the most democratic nations and defenders of human rights, the basic rights of black Americans are still not guaranteed. They continue to experience multifaceted discrimination every day.

This study aims to analyze the division of inheritance rights based on the Hadiths of Bukhari and Muslim and the Articles of the Civil Code; how the division of inheritance rights is viewed in the perspective of the Hadiths of Bukhari and whether it is in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Code. The research method used is document analysis, collecting data from Islamic law and civil law literature and comparing the two. The results show that the division of inheritance rights in the Hadiths of Bukhari emphasizes the principles of equality and justice for heirs, while the Civil Code regulates the division of inheritance rights based on lineage and the number of heirs. So, the division of inheritance rights in the Hadiths of Bukhari emphasizes the principles of equality and justice, while the Civil Code regulates the division of inheritance rights based on lineage and the number of heirs, thus indicating a difference in approach in determining inheritance in the context of Islamic law and civil law in Indonesia.

Abstract:

This research aimed to fulfill the rights of persons with disabilities to get jobs according to their fields without reducing their rights. One of them was the recruitment of civil servant candidates. The research method used was normative juridical with literature study. Decent work is a right for every human being without exception. Various racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds that are part of human identity do not prevent him from getting his rights, likewise with the physical or non-physical conditions that underlie a human being. Every human being who has a certain physical or non-physical background also has the same right to get a decent job, including people with disabilities. The State of Indonesia has ratified the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities into Law Number 19 of 2011. In the preamble to the law, it is explained that countries that sign the Convention should promote and protect the rights and dignity of persons with disabilities and increase the participation of persons with disabilities in the civil, political fields, economic, social, and cultural-based on an equal opportunity. It means that the Indonesian government is legally obliged to fulfill the rights of persons with disabilities, especially regarding the right to work in Indonesia.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on analyzing the norms regulating joint rights, presents their shortcomings, and criticizes the misconceptions expressed in the legal literature about the types of common property, joint rights, and co-ownership. The paper considers the incompleteness of the provisions regulating the legal consequences of the abolition of joint rights as a serious shortcoming of the Civil Code of Georgia. A novelty is a mechanism proposed in this paper, and it is possible to assign the entire property to one of the participants in case of abolition of joint right, in exchange for compensation for the shareholder who requests the abolition of joint right and the allocation of the amount. The objective of the paper is to analyze certain aspects of the regulation of joint rights, which, together with the theoretical, have the practical importance that will contribute to a correct understanding of a number of issues and the correct qualification of the rights and obligations of participants of the legally binding relationship, rising on the basis of joint rights. To achieve this objective, logical and systematic analysis of norms as well as comparative-legal methods are used. Using these methods, it is possible to determine the strengths and weaknesses of the norms of Georgian law or to better understand their content, to identify gaps in the legislation in court practice, as well as to develop proposals and recommendations for the improvement of norms and practice. The problems are analyzed using the examples of Georgian, German, and Swiss civil law. The common features and shortcomings were identified between the Georgian and German models regarding the issue of the consequences of the abolition of joint rights. The Swiss model appears to be the most perfect and effective model among the named ones. The study found that neither in practice nor under the law is a shareholder allowed to sell the joint item in an auction by redeeming the shares of other owners. The extinction of this opportunity for the owner reduces the essence of ownership. In order to extend the guarantees for full protection of the property rights, a view is proposed on the need to develop an approach, similar to the Swiss model, and the implementation should be ensured by case law before the law is changed.

Abstract:

This study delves into the inheritance rights of children born out of wedlock, particularly focusing on the perspective of the Shafi'i School of Jurisprudence and the Civil Law Code concerning children born out of Zina, while employing an educational approach. The aim is to provide insights into the complexities surrounding inheritance rights in such cases and to propose educational strategies for addressing related issues. A qualitative research approach is adopted, utilizing a combination of literature review and legal analysis. Data is collected through in-depth examination of legal texts, scholarly articles, and case studies related to inheritance rights of children born out of wedlock in Islamic law and civil law. Data is collected through extensive review of relevant legal sources and literature, focusing on the interpretation of inheritance laws and principles within the Shafi'i School of Jurisprudence and the Civil Law Code. The analysis involves identifying key themes, patterns, and discrepancies in the treatment of inheritance rights for children born out of wedlock. The findings reveal varying interpretations and legal provisions regarding inheritance rights for children born out of wedlock within Islamic law and civil law. While Islamic law recognizes inheritance rights for such children, civil law may impose restrictions based on legal requirements and societal norms. The implications of this study highlight the need for educational interventions aimed at raising awareness and promoting understanding of inheritance rights among stakeholders, including religious leaders, legal practitioners, and the general public. By fostering dialogue and collaboration, educational initiatives can contribute to the development of more equitable and inclusive legal frameworks.

Abstract:

More equal economic, social and political rights for women have long been part of civil and political right movements. It is widely believed that women’s rights are important for greater economic prosperity, good governance and social equality. However, women are still being discriminated in many parts of the world. How women’s rights can be protected? To answer this question, the literature has highlighted the importance of free media in promoting women’s rights. The extant literature on media and women rights, however, is largely limited to descriptive analysis and theoretical arguments. Moreover, the available evidence is confined to few case studies and anecdotal stories, which cannot be generalized globally. This study contributes in the literature by empirically investigating the relationship of press freedom with women empowerment using a large panel of 160 countries from 1996 to 2011. For empirical analysis, the ordered logit method is used. The empirical finding confirms that press freedom is an effective tool to empower women’s economic, political and social rights. Findings of the study are shown to be robust to different specifications, sub-samples, regional controls and different forms of women empowerment. JEL Classifications Codes: C23, J16, Z10

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the analysis of abuse of procedural rights in civil and economic proceedings. The views and approaches to the problem of abuse of rights available in the legal literature are considered. Based on the review of scientific literature, the conclusion has been made that there are two general theoretical constructs for understanding the concept of “abuse of procedural rights” within the framework of two approaches. The first approach involves the definition of abuse of procedural rights as misuse of procedural rights, and the second approach – as a type of procedural offence. The article analyses the national legislation on the subject matter of the study. It is argued that the abuse of procedural rights is a certain situation which participants to court proceedings find themselves in, whose rights are violated and are directly related to the rights of the person who abuses them. The exercise of procedural rights is carried out by one party to the dispute within certain limits, as long as it does not contradict the interests of the other party. Violation of these limits leads to the emergence and existence of such a legal phenomenon as abuse of rights. It is established that abuse of procedural rights means that one of the parties to a dispute, which formally has certain rights, unlawfully exercises them, violating the extent and type of behaviour defined by the procedural law, while taking advantage of the fact that these rights cannot be objectively clearly defined by means of direct prohibitions. In other words, when exercising their rights, the parties to the dispute do not take into account all the actual circumstances and do not take into account the possible harm to each other’s interests. Attention is drawn to the fact that the diversity of procedural rights in civil and commercial proceedings gives rise to a corresponding number of types of their abuse by the parties to a case. Due to the absence of a clear list in current legislation of the types of abuse of procedural rights and the existence of certain judicial practice in resolving this category of cases, it should be noted that there are various classifications by scholars.

Abstract:

The need for states and civil society to contribute to the global response to climate change is an important feature of international climate change instruments and literature. While states are duty-bearers of rights for all, protests are a historic strategy of civil society to demand accountability and foster societal change. The protection of protests is not specifically guaranteed under human rights law, but its inferred legal basis and scope reflects the liberal tradition, where Dworkin’s right-based theory on the tension between individual rights and the collective or societal goal is significant. This tension is expressed in South Africa, a developing country, where the liberal rights tradition has played a major influence on the formulation and application of rights and their legal limitations. The challenges which may result from this tension for climate-related protests are rarely clarified and the way in which these challenges may be addressed has not been carefully articulated. Employing Dworkin’s liberal rights as a basis of analysis, this contribution demonstrates how the tension between collective goals and individual rights may generate challenges in climate change protests. It then highlights key constitutional concepts associated with rights that may be helpful in addressing the drawbacks in South Africa.

Abstract:

This book documents efforts to integrate the southern paper industry during the post–World War II period. It makes an important contribution not only to the vast and growing literature on the civil-rights movement but also to economic and legal history. In contrast to the traditional focus of civil-rights historians on voting rights, school desegregation, and public accommodations, Timothy Minchin takes up the issue of fair employment and access to jobs as components of the broader civil-rights struggle. Building on his earlier research on the textile industry (Hiring the Black Worker: The Racial Integration of the Southern Textile Industry, 1960–1980. Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 1999), Minchin focuses specifically on the role of black activists and civil-rights advocates in utilizing the legal machinery put in place by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (specifically, Title VII) as a vehicle for litigation against companies and unions seeking to deny black workers equal employment opportunities. Drawing on the vast record generated by Title VII litigation and oral interviews with key actors, Minchin provides considerable insight into the lived experiences and strategic thinking of those struggling to integrate the industry. The overall story provides powerful support for the efficacy of federal civil-rights legislation in opening up new opportunities for black workers.
