Full textAbstract:
This study aims to construct the legal rights and duties of slave-owners in the first century AD as context for the exhortations in the New Testament directed at slave-owners. The central theoretical argument has been that the legal context of the first readers is essential for a valid interpretation of these exhortations, and that taking into account this legal context makes a valid interpretation possible. The study applies philological and comparative methods as well as analysis, interpretation and synthesis of the collected material.
Chapter 1 provides an outline of the study. Chapter 2 first defines a search filter to delimit the vast collection of material on slavery in antiquity, and then describes ancient slavery as general context to the texts and the New Testament exhortations analysed in subsequent chapters. In chapter 3 the legal context has been constructed by way of analysis of primary texts from Greek, Roman, and Jewish law. Chapter 4 deals with primary texts on the philosophical underpinnings of slavery in the three worlds under investigation. In chapter 5 Greek, Roman, and Jewish primary texts dealing with the conduct of slave-owners in respect of their slaves have been analysed. In chapter 6 the New Testament exhortations to slave-owners have been analysed utilising the contexts constructed in the preceeding chapters. Chapter 7 summarises the findings and conclusions of the study.
The study has concluded the New Testament writers’ acceptance of the legal and social reality of slavery in the first century AD. Their writings, however, contain unique features with a direct bearing on the rights and duties of slave-owners namely their persistent placement of the slave-owner – slave relationship in the context of the believing slave-owner and/or slave’s relationship with Jesus Christ. Within this framework, the study points towards diverging viewpoints within the New Testament on a continuum between social separation and acculturation.Thesis (Ph.D. (Greek))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2011

Full textAbstract:
Bibliography: pages 164-177.This dissertation is primarily concerned with the functioning of the law in the Cape Colony in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries as it pertained to slaves and masters (and to a lesser extent Khoi servants). It examines the operation of the law in one particular rural district, namely, Stellenbosch in the years c.1760-1820. The chief primary sources include criminal -- and on a smaller scale civil -- records of the local and central courts of the colony. Travellers' accounts have also been utilised. The study of one particular rural district reveals the extent to which the law was intricately woven into the fabric of the settler 'community'. Despite differentials of wealth, the settlers in Stellenbosch district were essentially part of a community of slaveholders. The contours of the settler community fundamentally influenced every step of the legal process. Members of the settler community were in a situation of face-to-face interaction. This meant that often, in conflicts between settlers, recourse to the law was seen as a last resort and mo.re emphasis was placed on the maintenance of personal social relationships. However, this community, of which a landed elite stood in the forefront, had discordant features and domination of the poor by the rich did not go without any struggle. The features of the settler community also fundamentally influenced the position of slaves in the law. Access to the courts for the slaves for complaints against their masters was very significantly determined by conflicts which existed amongst slaveholders. In court the extent of solidarity amongst members of the community could ultimately determine the chances of success for slaves. Another way in which concerns of community influenced the legal process was by the importance which was attached to the reputations of individual slaveowners. Often such concerns overrode strictly legal ones. Even in determining the severity of sentences in criminal cases reputations of individuals were of primary importance. The VOC not only served to bolster the authority of slaveowners but also to keep the wider society in control. Therefore, it could not allow slaveholder tyranny over their labourers to go unchecked. Moreover, the legal system had to be more than simply an instrument in the hands of the master class. At the local level, the VOC could be seen to be acting in the interests of the wider society by listening to the complaints of slaves and prosecuting individual masters. Roman common law, as opposed to statutory law, was the law most commonly used in criminal cases involving slaves. This had two important implications. Firstly, Roman law did not deny the slave any personality and prosecutors constantly reminded slaveowners that slaves were persons. Secondly, Roman law had an apparent universality in that its dictates were made applicable to all in society. These factors combined to make the law perform a hegemonic function.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation analyses the development of slave laws in Louisiana from 1724 to 1834 and focuses on the factors that influenced the development of slave laws under French and Spanish colonial rule, and United States jurisdiction. This period represents the promulgation of the first slave code for French Louisiana during the frontier period when slavery was in its nascent stages, up to when Louisiana had already become one of the leaders in the consolidation of slavery in the South, at the very time abolitionists were adopting a more aggressive anti-slavery approach. Louisiana experienced important economic and social changes towards the end of the Spanish colonial period. These changes were in part responsible for the rebirth of slavery in the South. Socio-economic changes are used to illustrate that, while laws retain much of their heritage and foundation, they also respond to, and develop in accordance with other changes in the society. Louisiana’s civil law tradition, as opposed to English common law, has traditionally been used to characterise Louisiana’s slavery as benign and humane. My study seeks to refute this notion and concludes that any harshness in slave laws after 1803 was related more to the socio-economic development of territory, than to United States rule, and extension English common law. Chapter one examines the promulgation of the first slave law for the Louisiana territory and examines the changes that took place in French slave laws through a comparative analysis of the 1685 French Caribbean slave code with the 1724 Louisiana code noir. In a brief review, the general role of the catholic church in the development of slave laws in early French colonial Louisiana is examined. The second chapter examines the evolution of slave laws under Spanish colonial rule and the socio-economic conditions that brought about these changes. Chapter three traces the development of the law under the United States administration from 1803 to 1834 and examines the changes that took place from the time of the French and throughout Spanish rule. Protective laws and their role in Louisiana slave society are examined under the three regimes. This study deals specifically with the laws themselves as promulgated, and not with their practical administration.

Full textAbstract:
At the beginning of the nineteenth century there were few white settlers in the Mississippi Territory. Over the course of two decades, the United States used treaties to force the indigenous inhabitants, the Choctaw, out of this area by the United States to lands west of the Mississippi River. The United States’ goal in the region was to create a plantation economy in the Mississippi Valley based on the production of short-staple cotton sustained by enslaved African American labor. Focusing on the removal of the Choctaw and the subsequent installation of a plantation regime in the Mississippi Valley, this thesis uses government removal records, treaties, correspondence, and arguments from Groves v. Slaughter to show how Choctaw removal and the interstate slave trade are not separate events, but part of one larger movement to incorporate Mississippi into the larger world economy.

Bratton, Amy Eleanor. "Between bedroom and courtroom : legal and literary perspectives on slaves and the freed in Augustus' adultery legislation." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/23459.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis offers an investigation into the roles of slaves and freedmen and the extent of their involvement in the Romans’ legal and literary discourse on adultery and the legislation introduced to address it – the lex Iulia de adulteriis coercendis. It also seeks to assert their place more firmly within the context of the Roman familia and explore what this means in the context of the adultery statute. This thesis reasserts the position of slaves and freedmen within the Roman familia as a whole and, more specifically, as individuals deserving and requiring of consideration within the context of the analysis of the adultery statute and other social legislation. A multi-disciplinary approach has been adopted in this thesis to address the multiple avenues apparent in the investigation. A detailed analysis of the primary extant source of the statute, found in Justinian’s Digest, was carried out to determine the extent of the inclusion of the servile and freed in adulterous relationships and how much consideration was shown to them by the legal writers, or jurists. As a corollary to this analysis, a range of literary works, from Ovid, the Elder Seneca, Quintilian, Tacitus and Suetonius, was examined to provide a counterpoint to the legal perspective on the inclusion of slaves and freedmen within adulterous relationships, and, subsequently, the familia. Re-assessing the roles of slaves and freedmen within adulterous relationships and the legislation aimed at controlling this crime also necessitates another reassessment – namely, that of the motivations behind the introduction of the statute itself. Notoriously difficult to determine, this thesis posits, in conclusion, that, rather than being an instrument of the moral indignation of the contemporary Roman population, the adultery legislation was instituted as an instrument of economic control to counter the potential dilution of the wealth of the elite of Rome by illegitimate children. Slaves and freedmen were, then, a crucial element of a deceptively complex piece of legislation typically assumed to affect and address members of the Roman elite only.

Full textAbstract:
Esta tese examina o papel do Direito na dinâmica que envolveu a reprodução do sistema de escravidão no Brasil e em Cuba no longo século XIX, a partir do nexo fundamental entre o tráfico transatlântico de escravos e a prática da alforria. Se, por um lado, a ordem jurídica abriu espaço para a ações criativas dos sujeitos históricos vitimados pela escravização, permitindo a reclamação de direitos adquiridos em juízo, especialmente em busca da liberdade, por outro, ela foi um dos elementos estruturantes dos respectivos sistemas de escravidão. Apesar das muitas semelhanças e pontos de contato, a configuração assumida pelos respectivos quadros jurídicos divergiu quanto a tópicos essenciais, especialmente no tocante ao reconhecimento legal do direito dos escravos à alforria onerosa, que se verificou precocemente em Cuba, enquanto que, no Brasil, ocorreu apenas em 1871, com a promulgação da Lei do Ventre Livre. O contraponto verificado não conduz a uma nova dicotomia entre uma escravidão mais branda ou severa do que a outra, mas à compreensão dos traços específicos que envolviam a ordenação do cativeiro e o alcance do protagonismo dos escravos naqueles dois espaços.This thesis analyzes the role of the law in the slave system\'s dynamics in Brazil and Cuba during the long nineteenth century, from the fundamental connection between the transatlantic slave trade and the manumission. The main argument is that, if on the one hand the law created possibilities for the historical subjects victimized by slavery act creatively, seeking freedom in the courts, particularly, on the other, it was part of the structuring elements of those slave systems. Despite the similarities, the configuration assumed by the respective legal frameworks diverged as the essential topics, especially with regard to legal recognition of the right of slaves to the onerous manumission, which occurred early in Cuba, while, in Brazil, only in 1871, with the enactment of the Free Womb Law. The observed counterpoint does not lead to a new dichotomy between a milder and a severe slave system, but the understanding of the specific characters involving the regulation of slavery and the slave agency in those two spaces.

Full textAbstract:
I och med den föreslagna sexualbrottslagstiftningen baserad på frivillighet har brottet våldtäkt och dess utformning återigen blivit föremål för livlig politisk diskussion. Opinionen för den föreslagna regleringen formades i stort efter ett antal uppmärksammade våldtäktsmål i början av 2010-talet. Vissa jurister kritiserade rättsfallen för hur frågan om uppsåt hanterats, men denna fråga har inte uppmärksammats särskilt vid framarbetandet av den föreslagna regleringen.Hur gränsdragningen mellan uppsåtligt respektive oaktsamt handlande ska dras har länge diskuterats i juridisk doktrin. I rättsfallet NJA 2004 s. 176 slogs det fast att likgiltighetsuppsåt är den uppsåtsform som utgör uppsåtets nedre gräns i svensk rätt. Likgiltighetsuppsåt innebär i korthet att en gärningsperson inser risken för att en viss följd kan inträda genom sitt handlande, samt att hen är likgiltig inför att följden faktiskt inträder. Att följden inträder genom hens handlande är inte ett skäl för gärningspersonen att avstå från handlandet.Underrätter verkar ha haft problem med att tillämpa kriterierna för likgiltighetsuppsåt i våldtäktsmål. Domstolar tenderar att beskriva hur bedömningen av uppsåtet gått till på ett kortfattat sätt, att använda sig av begrepp som snarare för tankarna till en mer kvalificerad uppsåtsform och att underkänna uppsåt, trots att en korrekt tillämpning av kriterierna för likgiltighetsuppsåt i vissa fall hade kunnat innebära att uppsåt förelegat. Detta kan möjligen bero på att våldtäkt är ett brott som inte kräver att en viss följd inträder, utan endast att vissa omständigheter föreligger vid vissa sexuella handlingar, vilket innebär att kriterierna för likgiltighetsuppsåt inte passar för våldtäktsbrottet. Det är även tänkbart att underrätterna tycker att kriterierna för likgiltighetsuppsåt är så svårtillämpade, att de helst undviker att använda sig av dem.Om den föreslagna sexualbrottslagstiftningen baserad på frivillighet skulle antas, så kommer inte tillämpningen av likgiltighetsuppsåt i våldtäktsmål påverkas i praktiken. Detta eftersom våldtäktsbrottet inte heller med den föreslagna regleringen skulle innebära att en följd inträder. Att det även föreslås att våldtäkt begången av oaktsamhet ska kriminaliseras är inte heller något som nämnvärt skulle påverka tillämpningen av likgiltighetsuppsåt i våldtäktsmål.För att domstolar ska kunna tillämpa likgiltighetsuppsåt korrekt i mål som rör brott som inte innefattar någon följd, som är fallet vid våldtäkt, samt för att uppnå ett fullgott skydd för den sexuella integriteten och den sexuella självbestämmanderätten borde Högsta domstolen lämna vägledning om hur kriterierna för likgiltighetsuppsåt bör tillämpas i våldtäktsmål.

O objetivo desta dissertação é analisar a gênese da tradição legal relativa à escravidão negra nas Américas castelhana e portuguesa e a sua conformação entre o início do século XVI e a primeira metade do século XVIII, período em que prevalecia a cultura jurídica do ius commune. A hipótese com a qual se trabalha é a de que a partir da articulação entre processo legislativo e prática social constituiu-se um modo de produção das leis escravistas típico aos ibéricos. Diante da infinidade de matérias abordadas na legislação, procurou-se efetuar um recorte temático que propiciasse a realização do escopo da investigação dentro das limitações de uma pesquisa de mestrado. Os temas eleitos em função da compreensão de sua importância na dinâmica dos regimes de escravidão ibero-americanos foram: manumissão e políticas de controle da rebeldia escrava.The aim of this dissertation is to analyze the genesis of the legal tradition on African slavery in the Castilian and Portuguese Americas and its configuration from the beginning of XVIth century to the first half of XVIIIth century, a period when the legal culture of the ius commune prevailed. The hypothesis is that by the relationship between legislative process and social practice a particular Iberian slave law mode of production took shape. Due the great diversity of subjects approached by this legislation, the dissertation makes a thematic selection appropriate to a M.A. Regarding its importance to the dynamics of Iberian American slave regimes, the themes elected to the inquiry were the manumissions and the politics of controlling slave resistance.

CAPES
Esta dissertação analisa a gestão do Fundo de Emancipação, artigo terceiro da lei 28 de setembro de 1871, na Bahia. Investiga a formação e o trabalho realizado pelas Juntas de Classificação, que eram formadas nos municípios baianos pelo promotor público, o coletor das rendas e o presidente da câmara de vereadores. Discute a intervenção e as tentativas de apropriação da lei por escravos e seus familiares, senhores e abolicionistas, durante o período de sua vigência. Relatórios do ministério da agricultura, comércio e obras públicas, falas e relatórios dos presidentes de província da Bahia, petições, ofícios, recursos administrativos, correspondências de juízes e de vereadores, listas dos escravos alforriados e jornais fazem parte do diversificado leque de documentos utilizados na pesquisa. O trabalho é influenciado pela historiografia da emancipação e da abolição de inspiração thompsoniana, que vem investigando as reformas jurídicas do escravismo e as apropriações e/ou os usos diversificados da legislação emancipacionista por parte dos senhores, escravos e demais segmentos da sociedade imperial brasileira. This work analyses the managing of the Emancipation Fund, third article of the September 28th 1871 Law, in Bahia. Search the formation and the work made by Classification Committee, that It were formed in the baiano´s countries by the public promoter, collector of rents and the president City Council. It discusses the intervention and the trying of the appropriation of the law for slaves and them parents, Sirs, and abolitionists, during the period of this occurrence. Ministério da Agricultura´s reports, commerce and public works, speeches and reports of the president of the Bahia´s province, petitions, documents, administrative recourse, letters of judges and city councilmen, lists of the freed slaves and journals compound the diverse conjunct of documents utilized in search. This work is influenced by emancipation historiography and the abolition influenced by Thompson, that it is studying the juridical reconstructions of the slaving and the appropriations and the diverse uses of the emancipationists legislation used by part of the Sirs, slaves and others parts of the Brazilian imperial society.

Consideramos que los lineamientos teóricos del autodenominado marxista lacaniano, en torno a la crítica de la ideología, son los pertinentes para este estudio, ya que nos ofrece algunas de las claves para comprender los problemas más acuciantes de la actualidad. Si bien el fenómeno de la historieta, en Argentina, hace su aparición en las primeras décadas del siglo XX y alcanza masividad de público ya a partir de la década del ’30, el interés académico por dicha práctica discursiva se vuelve sensible recién a mediados de los años sesenta, en el contexto de la eclosión de los estudios sobre comunicación masiva.Fil: Duprat, Laura del Rocío.

Sandeen, Loucynda Elayne. "Who Owns This Body? Enslaved Women's Claim on Themselves." PDXScholar, 2013. https://pdxscholar.library.pdx.edu/open_access_etds/1492.
Full textAbstract:
During the antebellum period of U.S. slavery (1830-1861), many people claimed ownership of the enslaved woman's body, both legally and figuratively. The assumption that they were merely property, however, belies the unstable, shifting truths about bodily ownership. This thesis inquires into the gendered specifics and ambiguities of the law, the body, and women under slavery. By examining the particular bodily regulation and exploitation of enslaved women, especially around their reproductive labor, I suggest that new operations of oppression and also of resistance come into focus.
The legal structure recognized enslaved women in the interest of owners, and this limitation was defining, meaning that justice flowed in one direction. If married white women were "civilly dead," as famously evoked by the Declaration of Sentiments (1848) then enslaved women were civilly non-existent. The law controlled, but did not protect slaves, and a number of opponents to slavery denounced this contradictory scenario during the antebellum era (and before). Literally, enslaved women were claimed by their masters, purchased and sold as chattel. Physically, they were claimed by those men (both white and black) who sought to have power over them. Symbolically, they were claimed by anti-slavers and pro-slavers alike when it suited their purposes, often in the domains of news and literature, for the sake of advancing their ideas, a rich record of which fills court cases, newsprint, and propaganda touching the slavery issue before the civil war.
Due to the numerous ways that enslaved women's bodies have been claimed, owned, or circulated in markets, it may have been considered implicit to many that others owned their bodies. I believe that this is an oversimplified historical supposition that needs to be re-theorized. Indeed, enslaved women lived in a time when they were often led to believe that their bodies were not truly their own, and yet, many of them resisted their particular forms of oppression by claiming ownership of their bodies and those of their children; sometimes using rather extreme methods to keep from contributing to their oppression. In other words, slave owners' monopoly of the legal, economic, and logistical meanings of ownership of slaves had to be constantly reaffirmed and negotiated. This thesis asks: who owned the enslaved woman's body? I seek to emphasize that enslaved women were valid claimants of themselves as can seen in primary sources that today have only been given limited expression in the historiography.

Esta tesis doctoral estudia la circulación de las traducciones literarias en formato libro entre Bulgaria y el mundo hispánico (España e Hispanoamérica) durante el periodo situado entre 1882 y 2012. La investigación se ocupa de tres aspectos de la traducción literaria: 1) los flujos de traducción; 2) el papel y las prácticas de los mediadores culturales —traductores y editores— que favorecieron el intercambio cultural; y 3) los factores culturales, políticos y económicos que determinaron dicho intercambio. Un corpus de traducciones en formato libro de literatura hispánica en lengua búlgara y de literatura búlgara en lengua española, elaborado ad hoc para llevar a cabo el estudio, constituye la base para el análisis cuantitativo de los flujos de traducción. Entrevistas con traductores y editores, así como publicaciones relevantes para el tema forman la base de un análisis cualitativo de los mediadores culturales y de las dimensiones culturales, políticas y económicas de la traducción literaria entre Bulgaria y el mundo hispánico. La tesis está articulada desde la perspectiva de Bulgaria como espacio que exporta e importa literatura de múltiples campos de producción literaria y está dividida en tres periodos claves para el campo cultural y editorial búlgaro, así como con respecto a las relaciones con la cultura hispánica: un primer periodo de contactos iniciales (1882-1947), un periodo de traducción politizada (1948-1989) y un periodo de relaciones post-totalitarias (1990-2012).Aquesta tesi doctoral analitza la circulació de traduccions literàries en format llibre entre Bulgària i el món hispànic (Espanya i Hispanoamèrica) durant el període situat entre 1882 i 2012. La investigació s’ocupa de tres aspectes de la traducció literària: 1) els fluxos de traducció; 2) el paper i les pràctiques dels mediadors culturals —traductors i editors— que van afavorir l’intercanvi cultural; i 3) els factors culturals, polítics i econòmics que van determinar aquest intercanvi. Un corpus de traduccions de literatura hispànica en llengua búlgara i de literatura búlgara en llengua espanyola, construït ad hoc per tal de portar a terme l’estudi, constitueix la base per a l’anàlisi quantitativa dels fluxos de traducció. Entrevistes amb traductors i editors, així com publicacions rellevants per al tema formen la base d’una anàlisi qualitativa dels mediadors culturals i de les dimensiones culturals, polítiques i econòmiques de la traducció literària entre Bulgària i el món hispànic. La tesi s’articula des del punt de vista de Bulgària com a espai de exportació i importació de literatures de múltiples camps de producció literària i es divideix en tres períodes claus per al camp cultural i editorial búlgar, així com pel que fa a les relacions amb la cultura hispànica: un primer període de contactes inicials (1882-1947), un període de traducció polititzada (1948-1989) i un període de relacions post-totalitàries (1990-2012).
This doctoral thesis studies the circulation of literary book translations between Bulgaria and the Hispanic world (comprising Spain and the Spanish speaking countries in South America) from 1882 to 2012. Specifically, the research focuses on three aspects of literary translation: 1) translation flows, 2) the role and practices of cultural mediators—translators and publishers—who enabled the cultural exchange, and 3) the cultural, political, and economic factors which determined said exhange. An ad hoc corpus of book translations of Hispanic literature in Bulgarian language and of Bulgarian literature in Spanish is the basis for quantitative analysis of translation flows. Interviews with translators and publishers, as well as relevant literature and publications, inform qualitative analysis on the subject of cultural mediators and the cultural, political and economic dimensions of literary translation between Bulgaria and the Hispanic world. The study takes the perspective of Bulgaria as an exporter and importer of literature to and from multiple fields of literary production and is divided in three key periods for the Bulgarian cultural and publishing field and with respect to the relations with the Hispanic culture: initial contacts (1882-1947), politicized translation (1948-1989) and post-totalitarian relations (1990-2012).

Full textAbstract:
Unlawful assembly accounts extracted from the Fredericksburg Mayor’s Court Order Books from 1821-1834, reveal rare glimpses of unsupervised, alleged illegal interactions between free and enslaved individuals, many of whom do not appear in other records. Authorities enforced laws banning free blacks and persons of mixed race from interacting with enslaved persons and whites at unlawful assemblies to keep peace in the town, to prevent sexual relationships between white women and free and enslaved black men, and to prevent alliance building between individuals. The complex connections necessary to arrange unlawful assemblies threatened the town’s safety with insurrection if these individuals developed radical ideas opposing the existing social order, the foundation of which was slavery. Akin to residents of areas where natural disasters like volcanoes always pose a risk of dangerous eruptions, those living in Fredericksburg lived their lives within the town slave society and its potential threats. In an area, state, and region where insurrections occurred, unlawful assembly, whether frequent or infrequent, mattered.

Pretendemos refletir acerca dos conflitos entre algumas frações da classe senhorial sobre a ideia de propriedade, manifestados em discursos ao longo do processo de construção, aplicação e interpretação da Lei Hipotecária 1.237 de 1864. Tencionamos sincronizar os debates sobre o Estado e a questão agrária nos oitocentos, demonstrando como as divergências sobre a reforma da legislação hipotecária não podem ser compreendidas por meio da contraposição entre os interesses de uma elite política e os dos barões Também discutiremos com os pesquisadores segundo os quais a norma em questão teria criado a propriedade privada no Império.
This research is about some different ways of thinking about property in the Second Reign. During that time, there were a great discussion about the meaning of this very term. It was clearly seem on the legislative debate of 1864 Brazilian Mortgage Law. We will show the Estate building and those conflicts were related. The historians do not have a common sense about Brazilian land conflicts. José Murilo de Carvalho tells politics’ and farmers’ interest apart, as if they were completely different. We cannot agree with this point. Their interest were closer than the supposed. They had a lot to do with each other. We will also show that we cannot think that mortgage law as the beginning of the private property all over Brazil.

The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the application of the constitutional principle of human dignity in the current legal relations between employees and employers. The globalization of the economy, the inversion of values, lack of ideological traditions brought by fluid modernity as understood by Zygmunt Bauman , directly affect the relations between capital and labor. The holders of economic power became more demanding and labor, by circumstances, more submissive. Given this perspective, we see the " commodification " of human being by capitalism. In this area will be analyzed, the use of slave labor analogous to slavery and contemporary slavery, that regardless of the nomenclature adopted, any of the three mentioned practices are reprehensible and should be hard fought, pointing out the constitutional principle of human dignity essential core of human rights, such as limiting these atrocities . Throughout the research objective is to reflect the application of the constitutional principle of human dignity in labor relations on a globalized world, as a way to combat inhumane or degrading practices that still exist in our country work under a critical eye on attempt that such practices are permanently banned from our system. Thus it tries to stimulate the discussion on this pressing topic that is essential not only to those involved in Human Rights, but the whole society in search of new options for decent development. The method of reasoning and approach of this study was developed based on documentary and bibliographic research , using the hypothetical- deductive method as the main , historical and statistical methods as auxiliary.
O objetivo desta dissertação de mestrado é o de analisar a aplicação do princípio constitucional da dignidade da pessoa humana nas relações jurídicas atuais entre empregados e empregadores. A globalização da economia, a inversão de valores, a falta de tradições ideológicas trazidas pela modernidade flúida, tal como compreendida por Zygmunt Bauman, afetam diretamente as relações entre o capital e o trabalho. Os detentores do poder econômico ficaram mais exigente e o trabalho, pelas circunstâncias, mais submisso. Diante desta perspectiva verifica-se a “coisificação” do ser humano pelo capitalismo. Nesta seara analisar-se-á a utilização de trabalho escravo, análogo à escravo e escravidão contemporânea, que independentemente da nomenclatura adotada, quaisquer das três práticas referidas são condenáveis e devem ser arduamente combatidas, ressalvando-se o princípio constitucional da dignidade da pessoa humana, núcleo essencial dos direitos humanos, como limitador dessas atrocidades. Ao longo da pesquisa objetiva-se refletir a aplicação do princípio constitucional da dignidade da pessoa humana nas relações de trabalho diante um mundo globalizado, como forma de combate às práticas desumanas ou degradantes de trabalho ainda existentes em nosso país, sob um olhar crítico, na tentativa de que tais práticas sejam definitivamente banidas de nosso sistema. Com isso intenta-se estimular a discussão inadiável sobre esse tema que é imprescindível não apenas aos envolvidos na área de Direitos Humanos, mas a toda sociedade em busca de novas opções para um desenvolvimento digno. O método de raciocínio e abordagem deste trabalho foi desenvolvido com base na pesquisa documental e bibliográfica, utilizando-se do método hipotético-dedutivo como principal e dos métodos históricos e estatísticos como auxiliares.

Full textAbstract:
Dans la seconde moitié du dix-neuvième siècle, le Sultanat de Zanzibar a été au cœur des politiques abolitionnistes et coloniales aussi bien françaises que britanniques. En effet, l’île de Zanzibar ne fut pas seulement le plus grand marché aux esclaves de l’océan Indien mais aussi la porte d’entrée privilégiée des trafiquants d’esclaves, des abolitionnistes, et des partisans de la colonisation en Afrique Orientale. Cette thèse s’intéresse aux controverses, ayant opposé la France et la Grande-Bretagne dans les eaux territoriales de Zanzibar, sur le droit de visite des bateaux transportant des esclaves ainsi que sur le droit des boutres à battre pavillon français et à échapper ainsi aux contrôles de la Royal Navy. Cette recherche souligne combien ces questions furent importantes, non seulement pour les relations de la France, de la Grande-Bretagne et du Sultanat de Zanzibar, mais aussi pour le droit international et les relations internationales jusqu’à la veille de la Première Guerre mondiale. Ce travail montre que les opérations de lutte contre la traite qui ont eu lieu à Zanzibar ont inspiré de nombreux officiers de marine, des consuls, des diplomates, des juristes, et des hommes politiques, aussi bien français que britanniques, quant à la conception et à la mise en œuvre « d’interventions humanitaires ». Ainsi l’histoire des opérations de lutte contre la traite menées dans le sultanat de Zanzibar permet d’éclairer de manière originale l’histoire du concept d’intervention humanitaire ou « d’humanité » (« intervention in the score of humanity »). Cette recherche souligne combien la nature de ces interventions humanitaires a sans cesse oscillé entre de véritables idéaux abolitionnistes et des enjeux coloniaux pressantsIn the second half of the nineteenth century the Zanzibar Sultanate became the focal point of French as well as British imperial and humanitarian policies. In fact, the island was not only the most important slave trade emporium of the Indian Ocean but it was also the great gateway to East Africa for slave traders, humanitarians, or imperialists alike. This thesis looks at the controversies which took place in Zanzibar waters between France and Britain over the right of searching vessels suspected of being engaged in the slave trade as well as the right of dhows to fly the French flag and escape the Royal Navy’s scrutiny. This research highlights how important these questions were, not only for the relations of France, Britain, and the Zanzibar Sultanate, but also for international law and international relations up until the eve of the First World War. This work demonstrates that the anti-slave trade operations which took place in Zanzibar inspired many navy officers, consuls, diplomats, Foreign Secretaries, and lawyers – whether British, French, or American – on the theory and the practice of “humanitarian interventions”. Indeed, the history of anti-slave trade operations implemented in the Zanzibar Sultanate sheds a new light on the history of the concept of humanitarian intervention, or “intervention in the score of humanity” – (“l’intervention d’humanité”) – as it was then called. This research underlines how these humanitarian interventions unceasingly swung between genuine humanitarian ideals and pressing imperial issues

Full textAbstract:
La tesis se basa, por una parte, en la transcripción completa del llamado “Dietari Honzè” de la Compañía catalana-aragonesa del mercader Johan de Torralba, que abarca del 10 de mayo del 1434 al 12 de agosto del 1437, y por otra, en el desarrollo de algunos de los temas interesantes que surgen con el estudio de la misma.
Debido a la enorme cantidad de temas que aparecen, hemos decidido centrar el estudio preferentemente en el análisis de las operaciones mercantiles y financieras apuntadas en el citado dietario, tanto referidas a particulares, como a la deuda pública.
En el fondo, lo que nos encontramos al revisar el Manual, es la descripción detallada, de una manera no intencionada ni corregida, de lo que estaba aconteciendo dentro de aquella sociedad de la Barcelona perteneciente al reino catalán aragonés de la primera mitad del siglo XV.
Según la transcripción del “dietari honzé”, descubrimos que Johan Torralba, en 1434 era un mercader clásico, que, con el paso del tiempo, supo rentabilizar las vías abiertas por los operadores que le antecedieron, diversificando sus inversiones, interviniendo en el mercado de la deuda pública, concurriendo en el lucrativo negocio del corso, del préstamo y del rescate de cautivos. Fue en definitiva, un hombre del siglo XV, cuyo estudio nos permite poner en valor su época, sus capacidades y las de la sociedad en la que trabaja y defiende.The thesis is based, on the one side, in the full transcription of the so-called "Dietari Honzé" of a catalan-aragonese Company owned by the merchant Johan de Torralba, who covers from May 10 of the 1434, to August 12 of the 1437, and, on the other side, in the development of some of the issues that come with the study of the manuscript. Due to the enormous amount of themes that appear, we have decided to focus the study on the analysis of the commercial and financial operations that are mentioned in the aforementioned diary, both preferably referred to individuals and public debt. Ultimately, what we got reviewing the Manual, is the detailed description, in a way that is not corrected intentionally, of what was happening within the society of the city of Barcelona, belonging to the catalan - aragonese Kingdom, of the first half of the century XV. According to the transcription of the "dietari honze", we discovered that Johan Torralba, in 1434 was a classic merchant, which, with the passage of time, was able to use the profitable routes opened by the operators who preceded him, diversifying their investments, by intervening in the market of public debt, concurring also in the lucrative business of “corso”, loan, and the rescue of captives. He was certainly a man of the 15th century, whose study allows us to put in value his time, their skills and those of society in which he works and defends.

Full textAbstract:
Con l'evoluzione dell'IoT e l'affermarsi di una concezione moderna di pratica medica, vengono introdotte nuove soluzioni nei percorsi di cura dei pazienti. Nell'AUSL di Piacenza, gli operatori sanitari del percorso terapeutico "Disturbi del comportamento alimentare" intendono sperimentare una nuova metodologia di cura dei propri pazienti, incentrata sulla continuità della cura stessa e sulla telecomunicazione. L'obiettivo è quello di monitorare i parametri vitali dei pazienti da remoto, utilizzando un'applicazione dedicata e alcuni dispositivi medici dotati di connettività wireless, che vengono forniti ai pazienti stessi per la raccolta dei parametri da analizzare. La tecnologia wireless adatta per questo tipo di utilizzo, considerando il requisito di basso consumo energetico dei dispositivi medici, è il Bluetooth Low Energy. In questo elaborato, vengono inizialmente descritti i componenti fondamentali di questa tecnologia: GAP e GATT. Successivamente, vengono descritte e approfondite le funzionalità principali di una componente autonoma realizzata per dispositivi Android, parte integrante di un'applicazione di monitoraggio in sviluppo. Le tre funzionalità in questione sono: pairing dei dispositivi, sincronizzazione e visualizzazione dei dati. Vengono descritti i processi di analisi, progettazione e implementazione della componente stessa, oltre al risultato finale che si intende realizzare e che costituirà un sistema di monitoraggio completo.

Esta dissertação analisa o debate em torno da Educação dos Ingênuos, filhos nascidos livres de mulher escravizada, em virtude da Lei 2.040, de 28 de setembro de 1871, denominada de Lei do Ventre Livre ou Lei Rio Branco, na Bahia, de 1871 a 1889. Investiga a Instrução Pública Primária na Província da Bahia, e a legislação educacional que dava sustentação. Discute a iniciativa de professores de criarem escolas para instruírem os ingênuos. Considera que a Lei de 1871 possibilitou experiências educacionais aos filhos de mulher escrava, nascidos após a data da lei. Os relatórios dos Presidentes de Província e dos Diretores Gerais de Instrução Pública da Bahia, ofícios, correspondência de professores, presidentes de comissão literárias e jornais foram importantes para esta pesquisa. O trabalho fundamenta-se na historiografia da escravidão influenciada pelas teorias de E. P. Thompson, que trabalha legislação e direito relacionados a experiências de sujeitos comuns. Esta historiografia elegeu a legislação abolicionista enquanto estratégia política utilizada pelos sujeitos sociais envolvidos no processo de emancipação e abolição da escravidão no Brasil nas três últimas décadas do século XIX.
This dissertation examines the debate on Education naive , free children born to enslaved women , under the law 2,040 of September 28, 1871 , known as Law of the Free Womb or Rio Branco law , Bahia 1871-1889 . Investigates the Primary Public Education in the Province of Bahia , and educational legislation that gave support . Discusses the initiative to set up schools for teachers to instruct naive . Considers that the 1871 law allowed educational experiences to the children of slave women born after the date of the law . Reports from the Presidents of the Province and the General Managers of Public Instruction Bahia , crafts , matching teachers , and committee chairmen of literary journals were important for this research . The work is based on the historiography of slavery influenced by the theories of E. P. Thompson working legislation and related rights experiences of ordinary subjects . This historiography that elected the abolitionist legislation as a political strategy used by social actors involved in the abolition of slavery and emancipation process in Brazil in the last three decades of the nineteenth century.

Full textAbstract:
The present diploma thesis deals with the common morphological and phonological features between Sanskrit and Slavic languages. It contains the list of common lexemes in Sanskrit and Slavic languages added at the end of the thesis. The point of departure of this thesis are the theories of comparative linguistics, which are mentioned in the introduction. Morphophonological parallels are researched in the context of the relationships between Indo- Iranian and Balto-Slavic languages, what helps to distinguish common features between the separated language branches: e. g. common features between Baltic languages and Sanskrit or common features between Slavic and Iranian languages. Iranian and Slavic language contact is analysed in the special chapter. The common features between Sanskrit and Slavic languages supposed to be generally the remnants of common Indo-European principles, which are preserved in both language branches. The special chapter is also devoted to the RUKI sound law, which is regarded as one of the most important common feature between Balto-Slavic and Indo-Iranian languages.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation examines the changing concepts and experiences of slavery and freedom in South Carolina from its founding in 1670 through 1747, a period during which the legal status of "slave" became solidified in law. During the course of South Carolina's first eight decades of settlement, the legal statuses of "slave" and "free" evolved as the colony's slaveholders responded to both local and imperial contexts. Slaves and slaveholders engaged in a slow process of defining and refining the contours of both slavery and freedom in law. The dissertation explores how this evolution occurred by focusing on three topics: constant conflict that afflicted the colony, free white colonists' reliance on the loyalty of slaves, and South Carolina's law and legal system.
Through its use of social and legal history, as well as close reading, the dissertation shows that South Carolina's legal and military contexts gave unplanned meaning to slaves' activities, and that this had the effect of permitting slaves to shape slavery and freedom's development in practice and in law. In various ways, the actions of slaves forced slaveholders to delineate what they considered appropriate life and work conditions, as well as forms of justice, for both slaves and free people. As such, slavery as an institution helped give form to freedom. Drawing on legal records, newspapers, pamphlets, and records of the colonial elite, the dissertation argues that slaves' actions--nonviolent as well as violent-- served as a driving force behind the legal trajectory of slavery and freedom in South Carolina. These processes and contexts change our understanding of colonial America. They reveal that slaves influenced the legal regulation of slavery and that slavery and the enslaved population played a critical role in defining freedom, a central tenet of American democracy. Contrary to modern assumptions about freedom and even the ideals expressed in the Declaration of Independence, this dissertation shows how slavery actually constrained freedom.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines how the law dealt with international fugitives. It focuses on formal extradition and the cross-border abduction of wanted criminals by police officers and other state officials. Debates over extradition and abduction reflected important issues of state power and civil liberty, and were shaped by currents of thought circulating throughout the imperial, Atlantic, and common law worlds. Debates over extradition involved questioning the very basis of international law. They also raised difficult questions about civil liberties and human rights. Throughout this period escaped American slaves and other groups made claims for what we would now call refugee status, and argued that their surrender violated codes of law and ideas of justice that transcended the colonies and even the wider British Empire. Such claims sparked a decades-long debate in North America and Europe over how to codify refugee protections. Ultimately, Britain used its imperial power to force Canada to accept such safeguards. Yet even as the formal extradition system developed, an informal system of police abductions operated in the Canadian-American borderlands. This system defied formal law, but it also manifested sophisticated local ideas about community justice and transnational legal order.
This thesis argues that extradition and abduction must be understood within three overlapping contexts. The first is the ethos of liberal transnationalism that permeated all levels of state officials in British North America/Canada. This view largely prioritised the erosion of domestic barriers to international cooperation over the protection of individual liberty. It was predicated in large part on the idea of a common North American civilization. The second context is Canada’s place in the British Empire. Extradition and abduction highlight both how British North America/Canada often expounded views on legal order radically different from Britain, but also that even after Confederation in 1867 the empire retained real power to shape Canadian policy. The final context is international law and international legal order. Both extradition and abduction were aspects of law on an international and transnational level. As a result, this thesis examines the processes of migration, adoption, and adaptation of international law.

Full textAbstract:
The maritime space of ships is more often developed as a metaphor than critically
investigated. Abstract fantasies of global flows and fluid motions ignore the material
histories of ships, which often involve the capture of individuals and populations within
networks of legal and extra-legal power. Standing as an exception to the bounded
geographies of nation-states, ocean space lies beyond any single sovereign’s power; the
passengers of ships are subject to multiple forms of biopower, wielded by diverse actors.
I examine three ship-spaces—British slave ships, the migrant ship Komagata Maru, and
Disney’s cruise ships—to tease out the techniques of biopower at work through them,
exposing the ways in which passengers are made to live and rendered dead. Drawing on
the work of Michel Foucault and Giorgio Agamben, I argue that the exceptional
suspension of law at sea is integral to the rule of law on land.

Full textAbstract:
Based on bibliographical research and the analysis of court rulings, this study
investigates the characterization of slave-like labor by Brazilian courts. After the alteration of article 149 of the Brazilian Penal Code, introduced by Law nº 10.803/2003, which typifies the practice of contemporary slavery in Brazil, divergent characterizations of this practice remain. The courts currently employ the broadest concept of contemporary slave labor, in which the crime is characterized by the engagement in one of the following conducts established as a criminal offense: labor with the restriction of freedom, submission to exhaustive working conditions, degrading working conditions, and debt bondage. The engagement in one of the above is therefore enough to constitute a crime.
Contemporary slave labor in Brazil is not characterized only by the restriction of the worker’s freedom, as in the case of forced labor or debt bondage, but also through the submission of the workers to situations that offend their human dignity. Individual freedom and the dignity of the human person, fundamental tenets of the Brazilian Federal Constitution, are juridical resources safeguarded by law. Contemporary slavery is not limited to the mere infringement of labor laws, but represents a severe violation of the human rights of the workers involved.Este estudo analisa, a partir da pesquisa bibliográfica e do exame jurisprudencial, a caracterização do trabalho análogo ao de escravo na perspectiva da jurisprudência dos tribunais brasileiros. Após a alteração do artigo 149º do Código Penal Brasileiro, introduzida pela Lei nº 10.803/2003, que tipifica a prática da escravidão contemporânea no Brasil, persiste a divergência jurisprudencial quanto aos aspectos caracterizadores da prática em questão. Atualmente, os tribunais utilizam a interpretação mais ampla do conceito de trabalho escravo contemporâneo, em que o crime se caracteriza pela prática de uma das condutas previstas no tipo penal: o trabalho com restrição da liberdade, a submissão a jornadas exaustivas, as condições degradantes de trabalho e a servidão por dívidas. A prática de uma das situações descritas no tipo penal é suficiente, portanto, para configurar o crime. O trabalho escravo contemporâneo no Brasil não é caracterizado somente pela restrição à liberdade do trabalhador, como ocorre nas hipóteses do trabalho forçado ou da servidão por dívidas, mas também por meio da submissão do trabalhador a situações que afrontam a dignidade humana. A liberdade individual e a dignidade da pessoa humana, fundamentos da Constituição Federal Brasileira, são os bens jurídicos tutelados pelo referido tipo penal. A escravidão contemporânea não se limita à prática de simples infrações trabalhistas, mas representa uma grave violação dos direitos humanos dos trabalhadores envolvidos.
