Abstract:
The central argument of this work is that the level of aggression of judges sitting in vulnerable courts is a function of their attempt to protect the institutional security of such courts. I argue that in contexts characterised by a lack of a culture of judicial independence, by high levels of judicial delegitimisation, and a high level of public visibility of judicial affairs, judges will attempt to simultaneously construct public support and avoid political conflicts with the Government. As a result, judicial decisions are driven by judges’ calculations of both the public’s reaction and the

Non-recognition as lawful of a situation created by a serious breach of a peremptory norm is regarded as a well-established customary duty.

However, while State practice confirms that there is an established trend towards non-recognition of unlawful situations, it also illustrates that its content is controversial.

Abstract:
The partisan election of state judges and costly litigation make the civil justice system in the United States vulnerable because they undermine the values upon which the system was founded. The public’s trust that courts administer justice fairly and impartially is questioned by partisan elections funded by large corporations. Moreover, with the advent of electronically stored information, and the market’s control over the price of legal resources, access to the civil justice system is limited by wealth. This thesis seeks to address these problems and analyze the solutions that are most effec

Abstract:
This thesis argues that corporations have outgrown the theoretical frameworks that were devised to explain their dynamics at the turn of the 20th century. Contemporary conditions result in crises of legitimacy between corporations and their public contexts. With their amplified scales of operation and wide-reaching physical, economic, political, and social consequences, corporations of the 21st century demand revised theoretical, legal, and pragmatic interpretations that are better suited to grappling with present-day dynamics and to addressing critical challenges.

O Conselho de Saúde foi instituído com o objetivo de promover a participação social nas políticas de saúde pública, estabelecendo um mecanismo robusto e permanente de fiscalização e de tomada de decisões, em que o Controle Social foi firmemente integrado à gestão pública. O Controle Social sempre foi um instrumento jurídico, podendo ser exercido por qualquer cidadão, mediante ação popular, ou por instituições, por meio da ação civil pública. Contudo, antes da instituição do Conselho de Saúde, esses instrumentos jurídicos eram apenas uma possibilidade, não constituindo um mecanismo de caráter p

Abstract:
This study aims to investigate how legal origin and cultural values can affect the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the cost of equity. Specifically, common law and civil law countries (legal origin) and countries with high long-term orientation are compared. The research is conducted by using panel data of 5,533 firm-year observations from 1,492 unique firms during a sample period of 2005 through 2013. The findings suggest that firms with better CSR performance will enjoy lower cost of equity. Furthermore, there is strong evidence in support of the corporate gove

Abstract:
The under-representation of women in the senior appellate judiciary in common law jurisdictions remains an enduring problem. Much has been written about the lack of women’s participation in the judiciary and what strategies, if any, should be undertaken in order to resolve this persistent problem. However, this thesis takes a step back to ask a broader question: what impact does gender diversity have upon judicial decision making in appellate courts? It seeks to answer this question by engaging feminist standpoint theory to assess the experiences of men and women judges from three common law j

Abstract:
The thesis aims at analyzing the responsibility corporations, which are extracting valuable minerals from conflict risk and conflict affected areas, have in terms of respecting human rights. The thesis analyzes corporate responsibility mostly from a moral but also a legal perspective. In terms of the moral responsibility, the thesis has strategically chosen to examine the moral responsibility of corporations to respect human rights through the moral responsibility of their employees. The stance, that the thesis launches, is that the moral responsibility of the employees as individuals does tra
