Abstract:

To deal intelligently with common questions from “chromosomal families,” counselors need a broad knowledge of how gametes form, how chromosomes behave, and how the early conceptus grows. This chapter describes the ways in which chromosomes are transmitted, and the ways in which these processes can go wrong and lead to clinical abnormality. The distinction is made between “pure” aneuploidies, and abnormalities due to structural rearrangement. In particular, meiotic nondisjunction, with respect to the generation of pure aneuploidy, is discussed in considerable detail. The origins of chromosome m

Abstract:

This commentary focuses on Article 3.1.1 concerning the scope of application of the rules on validity in Chapter 3 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC). The PICC do not deal with invalidity arising from lack of capacity. The Official Comment states that the reason for the exclusion of capacity matters lies in their ‘inherent complexity’ and in the fact that they are treated in an ‘extremely diverse manner’ by domestic legal systems. The provision has been changed in the 2010 edition of the PICC. Ar 3.1 of the 2004 edition had also excluded invalidity arising

This commentary focuses on Article 3.1.3 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning initial impossibility. Art 3.1.3 excludes those domestic rules that invalidate a contract simply because there is initial impossibility or simply because (‘the mere fact that’) one party was not entitled to dispose of the assets concerned. As a result of Art 3.1.3, neither initial impossibility nor lack of power to dispose of the assets as such makes a contract invalid. However, this does not mean that initial impossibility or lack of power to dispose of the assets has no

‘Birth of the welfare state’ describes the embryonic version of the welfare state in Germany with Chancellor Bismarck’s social insurance laws in the 1880s. A decade later governments in Denmark, New Zealand, and Australia launched the first old age pension schemes. In the early 1900s Liberal governments in Britain introduced workmen’s compensation, old age pensions, labour exchanges, and a system of National Insurance for sickness, invalidity, and unemployment. In the 1930s President Roosevelt established the American welfare state with the ‘New Deal’ legislation. The new welfare states were e

Historically, those societies that have the longest tradition in multicultural policies are settler societies. The question of how to deal with temporary migrants has only recently aroused their interest. In Europe, temporary migration programmes have a much longer history. In the period after WWII, a wide range of legal frameworks were set up to import temporary workers, who came to be known as guest workers. In the end, many of these ‘guests’ settled in Europe permanently. Their presence lay at the basis of European multicultural policies. However, when these policies were drafted, the forme

This commentary focuses on Article 3.2.6 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) concerning threat as a reason for invalidity. Under Art 3.2.6, a party may avoid the contract when it has been led to conclude the contract by the other party's unjustified threat which, having regard to the circumstances, is so imminent and serious as to leave the first party no reasonable alternative. In particular, a threat is unjustified if the act or omission with which a party has been threatened is wrongful in itself; or it is wrongful to use it as a means to obtain the concl

This concluding chapter argues that the New Deal food writing does not provide lessons on how to eat better, nor a cause to dismiss it as a bigoted or failed nation-building attempt. Rather, it offers a reminder that contemporary anxieties about the sensory, political, environmental, social, and moral consequences of the global industrial food system, as well as the drive toward the celebration of local traditions and knowledge, are not a late-twentieth and early-twenty-first-century affair but part of a longer historical trend.

This article examines the concept of historical injustice in the context of contemporary political theory. It examines the moral consequences of historical injustice for the descendants of both the perpetrators and the victims and outlines the six questions that any plausible defence of the idea of making reparations for past injustices must deal with. It suggests that taking historical injustice seriously is compatible with moral cosmopolitanism and it also helps with the understanding the nature of various kinds of inequalities that persist today.

Abstract:

Chapter 11 of the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts (PICC) deals with the plurality of obligors and obligees. It addresses those legal issues arising from the fact that performance of a contractual obligation is owed by more than one obligor and/or owed to more than one obligee. In principle, the chapter does not deal with questions of plurality of parties to a contract as such. One example is the question of whether the right of termination for fundamental non-performance (Art 7.3.1) may be exercised by just one out of several buyers, and the consequences this might en

Jewish and Rabbinic Perspectives on Psychiatric Ethicscompares and contrasts the medical-ethical principles of rabbinic Judaism with those of clinical psychiatry. On many general ethical principles-in particular, those of benevolence, nonmalfeasance and justice-there is a good deal of concordance between Jewish and medical-psychiatric ethics. However, these two ethical systems sometimes diverge in their approach to the patient's "autonomy." This may have important consequences in matters such as involuntary medical treatment; the patient's sexual orientation; and decisions regarding circumcisi

One of the most important aspects of operating a calorimeter is the calibration, i.e. determining the relationship between the deposited energy and the resulting signal. Segmenting the calorimeter into two or more longitudinal segments creates extremely complicated problems in this context. This is because the sampling fraction and the calorimeter response tend to change as the shower develops, in an energy dependent way. In this chapter, a large variety of methods that have been proposed and/or tried to deal with these problems are described. Almost all these methods have undesirable side eff

Although they occasionally asked for help from teachers, they did so when it was apparent that requests were welcome and would not result in reprimand (e.g., when teachers approached them to offer assistance).

Directed primarily at Christian churches and charities, the film’s tone was lightly didactic, its images striking and ethnographically attentive. An early example of the then relatively new genre of humanitarian advocacy, Sands of Sorrow invited its audience to focus on the human consequences of the mass displacement of the Palestinian Arabs, caused by the war and the creation of the State of Israel. That moral injunction came with some au

Abstract:

As the end of the Brexit process is still not in sight, the consequences of the UK’s withdrawal from the EU—with or without an agreement—are difficult to assess. This volume aims at an interim assessment of Brexit, from basic questions of sovereignty, which Brexiteers seem to be striving to recover, models of differentiated integration and the protection of fundamental rights, to the principle of democracy, which seems to be being challenged in different ways. How has the internal market been affected by Brexit? How have citizens’ social rights as developed by the ECJ been affected? What impac

Abstract:

The essay that forms the core of this book is an attempt to understand the developments that have occurred in Orthodox Jewry in America in the last seventy years, and to analyse their implications. The prime change is what is often described as ‘the swing to the right’, a marked increase in ritual stringency, a rupture in patterns of behaviour that has had major consequences not only for Jewish society but also for the nature of Jewish spirituality. For the book's author, the key feature at the root of this change is that, as a result of migration to the ‘New Worlds’ of England, the United Sta

Abstract:

This chapter responds to a point which Chris Wickham raised in his recent review of my book on Dark Age Liguria: did chestnut cultivation show any economic specialization in this region in the early medieval period? Chestnuts figured a great deal in that book, which drew briefly on the surviving charter documentation for the region. In this chapter a more detailed analysis of charters from the tenth and eleventh centuries develops an answer to the question of specialized production with a comparative study in which the Genoese evidence is set alongside similar charter evidence from Milan and i

Abstract:

This encyclopedia examines the phenomenon of deception from a variety of perspectives and in a multitude of contexts. It offers readers an accessibly written and engaging resource that sheds light on when, why, and how we lie. Ironically, it seems to be a universal truth that everyone lies. From innocent “white lies” to elaborate deceptions, humans appear to be hard-wired for dishonesty. But what psychological or evolutionary purpose does lying serve? What motivates us to lie, and what effects do such lies have on those around us and on our own physiology and mental health? What are the differ

Abstract:

This practical guide helps leaders understand the threat pandemics pose to society, the overall economy, and their businesses. Using illustrative examples, this book helps readers develop business-continuity plans to deal with the economic and medical consequences of a crisis. A pandemic is an epidemic that covers a huge swath of the country or even the world. And it's just as scary as it sounds: For example, it's estimated that up to a third of the U.S. population could fall ill in an Avian flu pandemic, costing the U.S. economy alone up to $675 billion. Worse, pandemics shatter lives and bus
