The theme arises from the legal-academic movement "Law and Literature". This newly developed field should aim at two major goals, first, to investigate the meaning of law in a social context by questioning how the characters appearing in literary works understand and behave themselves to the law (law in literature), and second, to find out a theoretical solution of the methodological question whether and to what extent the legal text can be interpreted objectively in comparison with the question how literary works should be interpreted (law as literature). The subject of justice and injustice has been covered not only in treatises of law and philosophy, but also in many works of literature: On the one hand, poets and writers have been outraged at the social conditions of their time. On the other hand, some of them have also contributed fundamental reflections on the idea of justice itself.
A semantic study of God’s righteousness and justice in the Hebrew Bible that draws exegetical, theological, and philosophical conclusions about the character of God and God’s relationship with humanity. God’s work of creation and salvation for the good of Israel, humanity, and the world manifests the nature of God’s being. Thus, if we can understand God’s characteristics of righteousness and justice, we can better understand God. In the Hebrew Bible, these aspects of God are not expressed by abstract concepts but by semantic elements within literary structures. From this premise, Jože Krašovec undertakes the present study to put semantics into dialogue with exegesis and theology ...
Volume II: Special Workshops Initia Via Editora
This volume seeks to disentangle the limits and possibilities of the tradition of civil disobedience: in what circumstances is it right, or perhaps necessary, to say "no"? The jurisprudential and philosophical literature discussed here is truly enormous and provides a complex and reliable overview of the main problems.
This volume contains the major result of the work undertaken by the international research group "Transfer of Movables" which belonged to the Study Group on a European Civil Code. It covers the most important aspects of the law of property in movables, such as the transfer of ownership based on the transferor's right and the good faith acquisition of ownership. The suggested black letter provisions are accompanied by extensive explanatory comments and comparative notes providing information on the existing rules of the EU Member States. As compared to Book VIII of the DCFR, this volume contains additional and partly revised national notes, extended comments, translations of the black letter rules and adapted registers. The "Principles of European Law" are published in co-operation with Oxford University Press and Staempfli (Switzerland).
What this book intends to do is to study three-dimensionalism (the distinction values-norms-facts) not in what could be called its historical dimension, but in its substantive aspect, as a “form” that, when applied to different legal themes, would add a “material content” to the three-dimensional theory. We can point out, as a study plan, the distinction between “three” perspectives: Those of the legal norm, of the legal order, and the legal relationship. Three-dimensionalism also appears in this work when one analyzes the “three” phases of the life of the law: The formation, the interpretation, and the application; and in the distinction between the “three” characteristics of the legal order: Fullness, coherence, and unity—the theory of legal validity, intended as legitimacy, as validity strictly speaking, or as effectiveness.
RESUMEN: En la Universidad de Murcia, durante los días 8 y 9 de febrero de 2019, se desarrolló el congreso anual de los profesores de Derecho administrativo, dedicado en esta ocasión a los problemas que plantea el control judicial de las administraciones públicas en la perspectiva de los veinte años transcurridos desde la última regulación de la materia. Casi trescientos profesionales procedentes de muy diferentes territorios, escuelas, niveles y generaciones debatieron sobre las restricciones, los retos y la eficacia que presentan la organización y los procesos del conjunto de juzgados y tribunales encargados de resolver los recursos que pueden interponer los ciudadanos contra el Gobierno, los ministerios, las comunidades autónomas, los municipios y demás entes públicos con el fin de exigirles el cumplimiento de lo establecido en las leyes.
La publicación recoge las experiencias expuestas por profesores e investigadores en la II Jornada Campus Virtual UCM organizada por el Vicerrectorado de Innovación y Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior. Se abordan cuestiones como la propiedad intelectual en el Campus Virtual, la utilización de estándares para el diseño de las asignaturas, el reto de la convergencia europea o la necesidad de herramientas complementarias al C.V.
Cada uno de los que hemos podido compartir con el profesor Rams un trabajo de investigación sabemos lo importante que es para él esta vocación de la Universidad, la vocación de investigar y enseñar, de aprender y dar, de estudiar e iniciar. Y es que resulta complicado encontrar a alguien que ame su trabajo y que el mismo se manifieste como un punto de conexión sobre el que crear y consolidar auténticas relaciones de amistad. Cualquier tema jurídico se puede tratar en cualquier momento y lugar, fuera del formalismo y la jerarquía maestro-discípulo. De un Catedrático de la Complutense amigo entrañable de Joaquín Rams desde hace casi treinta años hemos leído que nuestro homenajea...
