Abstract:

This thesis explores the ways the dominant discourses of conflict resolution, legal rationality and parenting in family law shape the practice of mediation in family dispute resolution (FDR). A feminist post-structural analysis identifies contradictions and gaps in practice, particularly those arising when working with families with a history of domestic violence. This research challenges the notions of objectivity, neutrality and participant self-determination and argues instead for a reconceptualisation of mediation to take account of power relations and adopt critical postmodern understandi

Abstract:

This thesis aims to explain how politics in 14th century Scandinavia were structured by a set of rules or norms of conduct – rules which were neither codified nor enforced by any outside agency, yet had a very real impact on the patterns by which political action was conducted. Taking inspiration from historical anthropology, the study sets out to analyze the ways in which political tensions and relationships, primarily within the royal elite, were negotiated in various situations. The source material – mainly letters of treaties, but also contemporary literary sources – are treated as remains

Abstract:

The phenomenon of third party intervention in domestic political disputes has posed a significant dilemma for international relations scholars and practitioners for several decades. Specifically, why do third parties decide to intervene in some intrastate disputes, but decide not to intervene in other intrastate disputes? The question of why potential third parties choose to intervene in some cases but not in other cases has been widely discussed among international relations scholars and practitioners for several decades, but very few systematic analyses of the question have been conducted by

Culture plays a part in the construction of legal understandings in the Supreme Court contrary to much legal scholarship. The oral argument of the Supreme Court is a unique way for Justices to gather information beyond the formalized briefs and prior written opinions. In the oral argument the Supreme Court Justices utilize cultural codes as tools to probe, shape, negotiate and challenge the legal meanings and boundaries of the case before them.

Abstract:

This study examines the ways Parisians viewed marriage contracts and marital relationships in the late fourteenth century. It focuses on the Archidiaconal court of Paris and the ways men and women used the court to modify their marriages. My argument in this project is two-fold: First, I argue that the Parisian laity had at least a basic understanding of marriage law, especially the importance of consent for the creation of marriages, and that women, in particular, used that knowledge to control their choice of marriage partner. Second, I argue that after the formation of the marriage, society

The article analyses the theoretical debates on equality and justice that represent the structural and institutional dimension of politics within the framework of a rigid constitutionality of fundamental rights as well as the changes in process to which law and politics are subject in Spain as a consequence of the globalization of economic production and of culture. The actions carried out by the Spanish government in recent years justify us in speaking about the return of the old socio-economic hierarchies and of the clear obstacles to the development of alternative legal-political thinking.

Abstract:

In this dissertation, I seek to explain mediation initiation in militarized interstate disputes. In large part this purpose serves to bridge an important gap in the mediation literature between the onset of mediation and its outcome. Specifically, I examine how various dispute, disputant and third party traits interact to foster a mediation attempt. In doing so, I focus on answering three related questions. First, what are the differences between third party and disputant initiated mediation? Second, why are the two types different? Third, what are the implications of these differences? A new

In doing so it examines how the celebration and prevalence of anti-PC rhetoric has emerged alongside our increasing intolerance of ‘politically incorrect’ forms of discourse (such as racist or homophobic language).

Transfer pricing is an area of major concern for tax administrations. The growth of multinational enterprises and an increase in cross border transactions has highlighted the significance of a regulated transfer pricing system. However, this regulated system imposes high penalties for improper transfer pricing. To reduce the risk of high transfer pricing penalties, multinational enterprises have resorted to advance pricing agreements with tax administrations. These agreements, though, are not a simple solution to reduce the risk of penalties. The process of executing these agreements carries w

Yet there are significant State and regional variations in how ICL work is conducted and differing understandings on the part of lawyers as to what the role requires.

In 1819, Ferdinand VII ordered the creation of two Colegios de Abogados in Cuba to prevent the expansion of the number of legal professionals, as well as the unauthorized practice of law. The strategy, however, failed, and lawyers increasingly became a force of political and social change in the island, being mostly inspired by the debates about the implementation of liberal agendas in and out of Cuba. Some Colegios de Abogados eventually became centers of anti-Spanish conspiracy and lawyers even led recurrent uprisings for Cuban independence. Ideas of reform among Cuban lawyers, however, were

They fail moreover to explain some puzzling state behaviour – why, for instance, states choose to sometimes make large concessions on territories of great value, and adopt intransigent attitudes towards territor

Geography has been a central element in shaping conflict through the ages, and is especially important in determining which states fight, why they fight, when they fight, and more importantly, where they fight.

Territorial disputes are highly salient issues that quite often result in militarized disputes.
