Buku ini mengkaji dan menganalisis perlindungan konsumen obat pada kerangka umum perlindungan. Penulis mengalami kegelisahan akademik atas fenomena lemahnya perlindungan konsumen obat di Indonesia. Penulis ingin mengkaji bagaimana sistem hukum yang terdiri dari struktur substansi dan budaya hukum dalam memberi perlindungan kepada konsumen obat dengan memulai dari pengkajian pada aspek substansi hukum terlebih dahulu. Konsumen pada umumnya memiliki kedudukan lemah di hadapan pelaku usaha. Khusus konsumen obat yang mengkonsumsi sesuatu langsung berhubungan dengan tubuhnya, kerentanan yang dihadapi bukan sekedar lemahnya posisi tawar, tetapi juga keselamatan dan kesehatan jiwa raga menjadi taruhan. Berbeda dengan konsumen makanan yang masih dapat menolak atau tidak dalam memilih makanan, konsumen obat, terutama untuk terapi, seringkali tidak ada pilihan lain. Kondisi ini menjadi pertimbangan penting dalam aspek perlindungan hukum. Buku ini memberikan gambaran kepada pembaca mengenai fenomena tersebut dan bagaimana dalam kaca mata hukum.
Reprint of the second revised and enlarged edition, a complete revision of the first edition published in 1934. A landmark in the development of modern jurisprudence, the pure theory of law defines law as a system of coercive norms created by the state that rests on the validity of a generally accepted Grundnorm, or basic norm, such as the supremacy of the Constitution. Entirely self-supporting, it rejects any concept derived from metaphysics, politics, ethics, sociology, or the natural sciences. Beginning with the medieval reception of Roman law, traditional jurisprudence has maintained a dual system of "subjective" law (the rights of a person) and "objective" law (the system of norms).

Western perceptions of Islam in Indonesia are often dominated by images of radical minorities seeking a shari'ah state. In reality, however, mainstream Islamic institutions have played an important part in the post-Soeharto process of democratization and institutional reform. Among them are Indonesia's Islamic courts, the Pengadilan Agama or Religious Courts. In a ground-breaking new Lowy Institute Paper Cate Sumner and Tim Lindsey explore how the Islamic courts have embraced reform within a judicial system notorious for corruption and incompetence, taking the lead in efforts to deliver decisions that are more accessible, transparent and fair, especially for women and the poor.
This reference book is primarily a procedural work which examines the many forms, customs, and practices which have been developed and established for the House of Commons since Confederation in 1867. It provides a distinctive Canadian perspective in describing procedure in the House up to the end of the first session of the 36th Parliament in Sept. 1999.

This handbook addresses legal reasoning and argumentation from a logical, philosophical and legal perspective. The main forms of legal reasoning and argumentation are covered in an exhaustive and critical fashion, and are analysed in connection with more general types (and problems) of reasoning. Accordingly, the subject matter of the handbook divides in three parts. The first one introduces and discusses the basic concepts of practical reasoning. The second one discusses the general structures and procedures of reasoning and argumentation that are relevant to legal discourse. The third one looks at their instantiations and developments of these aspects of argumentation as they are put to work in the law, in different areas and applications of legal reasoning.
Drawing from hundreds of studies in half a dozen fields, The Brighter Side of Human Nature makes a powerful case that caring and generosity are just as natural as selfishness and aggression. This lively refutation of cynical assumptions about our species considers the nature of empathy and the causes of war, why we (incorrectly) explain all behavior in terms of self-interest, and how we can teach children to care.
