Book Synopsis Incorporating Un Convention on Rights by : Ursula Kilkelly
Download or read book Incorporating Un Convention on Rights written by Ursula Kilkelly and published by Intersentia. This book was released on 2020-11-28 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) requires States Parties to take all appropriate measures to implement the rights in the Convention. As we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Convention?s adoption, focus has shifted onto the measures being taken at national level to give effect to children?s rights with specific reference to legal incorporation both direct and indirect. The way in which the CRC is given legal effect is highly contingent upon the constitutional and legal systems of individual countries and can best be understood by those writing from the specific national context. So this book combines individual contributions that address the experience of legal incorporation in selected countries by their national experts, with comparative analysis of the international landscape from the world?s leading authorities on legal implementation of the CRC. The jurisdictions covered in this book include Australia, Scotland, Norway, Ireland, Sweden, Iceland, Wales, Israel, New Zealand, South Africa, USA, Mexico and China.

Book excerpt: "Chinese journalist Shi Tao did not report on the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing because he was serving a prison sentence for divulging a "state secret." Using his Yahoo! e-mail account, Shi Tao sent a message about restrictions imposed on local journalists to the U.S.-based Asia Democracy Foundation. Chinese authorities tracked him down with the assistance of Hong Kong based Yahoo! Holdings Ltd., a Yahoo! foreign subsidiary that provided China's state security apparatus with details allowing the communications to be traced back to Shi Tao's computer. Privacy rights and free expression advocacy organizations accused the company of complicity in the government's violation of Shi Tao's rights. When challenged by rights activists concerning his corporation's role in the journalist's imprisonment, Jerry Yang, Yahoo's U.S.-based co-founder reportedly claimed his company was simply complying with local laws. Nigerian environmental and human rights activist Ken Saro-Wiwa did not vote in Nigeria's democratic elections that ended years of military rule because he was executed by the ruling military dictatorship in 1995 for engaging in dissent. An ethnic Ogoni, Saro-Wiwa, had campaigned for increased autonomy for his community, a minority group residing in the oil-producing region of the country. He had organized protests against the environmental damage created by the drilling operations of Royal Dutch Shell and other oil companies in his community. Saro-Wiwa was "tried" by a special military court under procedures inconsistent with international fair trial standards, convicted along with the other "Ogoni Nine," and hanged. When criticized for its silence with respect to the Saro-Wiwa's trial, a member of Shell's general management reportedly stated the company was not in a position to question or comment on the country's rules, regulations or procedures. Colombian trade unionist "Pablo Perez 50" did not live to see the Colombian government reach a peace accord with the FARC guerrilla movement and adopt sweeping land restitution to return those forcibly displaced by violence during the country's conflict to their homes. "Pablo Perez 50" worked on a banana plantation that supplied Chiquita Brands International until the evening he was kidnapped and killed by the armed paramilitary organization that provided the company with security. In a settlement of criminal charges with the U.S. Justice Department, Chiquita was fined for violating U.S. anti-terrorism laws for making payments to designated foreign terrorist organizations. Yet, the civil claims of thousands of Colombians who suffered abuses allegedly due to Chiquita's complicit conduct were rejected by a federal court in the United States leaving victims with fewer forums for accessing a judicial remedy. Company representatives maintained there was no choice but to cooperate with paramilitaries given the complicated context of the country's conflict situation"--

Book Synopsis Incorporation of the Bill of Rights by : Gary Bugh
Download or read book Incorporation of the Bill of Rights written by Gary Bugh and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2022-12-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the first work of its kind, Incorporation of the Bill of Rights provides a detailed account of the Supreme Court's application of federal rights to the state level. Approaching the Bill of Rights amendment by amendment and right by right, Gary Bugh's content analysis of Court opinions reveals what justices regard as the incorporation status and most relevant case for each right. Along with finding that the Court has incorporated nearly the entire Bill of Rights, Professor Bugh offers new insights into unincorporated rights and addresses the judiciary's various theoretical defenses for protecting civil liberties from state infringement. This definitive inventory of incorporated rights is an essential resource for law and government scholars, teachers, and practitioners at all levels of government. *** In addition to specific amendments to the Constitution, the Supreme Court has a long history of incorporating certain rights and extending them to the states. In this careful and thoughtful study, Gary Bugh covers this development with clear and fascinating detail. A major contribution to our understanding of constitutional law and an important resource for scholars, attorneys, and judges.--Louis Fisher, Visiting Scholar at the William and Mary Law School *** In this meticulously researched book, Professor Bugh individually examines each of the rights listed in the first eight amendments to the U.S. Constitution. He further indicates whether the Supreme Court has incorporated each right into the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and, if so, when it did. It is quite helpful and convenient to have this information assembled in a single place and with such attention to detail, including relevant case citations.--John Vile, Dean and Professor of Political Science at Middle Tennessee State University *** Incorporation of the Bill of Rights is the essential guide to which federal protections the U.S. Supreme Court has extended to the state level. Professor Gary Bugh provides an invaluable service with his detailed content analysis of justices' written opinions. The multiple essays of the book, each one covering a single right, offer a unique approach to understanding the topic, including the relationships between justices' theoretical defenses and incorporation rulings. Teachers, students, and legal professionals will find the book a reliable source about incorporation for years to come.--Donald Gooch, Associate Professor of Political Science at Stephen F. Austin State University

Book Synopsis The Bill of Rights by : Linda R. Monk
Download or read book The Bill of Rights written by Linda R. Monk and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2018-04-10 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a foreword by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg of the U.S. Supreme Court. An Engaging, Accessible Guide to the Bill of Rights for Everyday Citizens. In The Bill of Rights: A User's Guide, award-winning author and constitutional scholar Linda R. Monk explores the remarkable history of the Bill of Rights amendment by amendment, the Supreme Court's interpretation of each right, and the power of citizens to enforce those rights. Stories of the ordinary people who made the Bill of Rights come alive are featured throughout. These include Fannie Lou Hamer, a Mississippi sharecropper who became a national civil rights leader; Clarence Earl Gideon, a prisoner whose handwritten petition to the Supreme Court expanded the right to counsel; Mary Beth Tinker, a 13-year-old whose protest of the Vietnam War established free speech rights for students; Michael Hardwick, a bartender who fought for privacy after police entered his bedroom unlawfully; Suzette Kelo, a nurse who opposed the city's takeover of her working-class neighborhood; and Simon Tam, a millennial whose 10-year trademark battle for his band "The Slants" ended in a unanimous Supreme Court victory. Such people prove that, in the words of Judge Learned Hand, "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court, can save it." Exploring the history, scope, and meaning of the first ten amendments-as well as the Fourteenth Amendment, which nationalized them and extended new rights of equality to all-The Bill of Rights: A User's Guide is a powerful examination of the values that define American life and the tools that every citizen needs.

Book Synopsis 51 Imperfect Solutions by : Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton
Download or read book 51 Imperfect Solutions written by Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we think of constitutional law, we invariably think of the United States Supreme Court and the federal court system. Yet much of our constitutional law is not made at the federal level. In 51 Imperfect Solutions, U.S. Court of Appeals Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton argues that American Constitutional Law should account for the role of the state courts and state constitutions, together with the federal courts and the federal constitution, in protecting individual liberties. The book tells four stories that arise in four different areas of constitutional law: equal protection; criminal procedure; privacy; and free speech and free exercise of religion. Traditional accounts of these bedrock debates about the relationship of the individual to the state focus on decisions of the United States Supreme Court. But these explanations tell just part of the story. The book corrects this omission by looking at each issue-and some others as well-through the lens of many constitutions, not one constitution; of many courts, not one court; and of all American judges, not federal or state judges. Taken together, the stories reveal a remarkably complex, nuanced, ever-changing federalist system, one that ought to make lawyers and litigants pause before reflexively assuming that the United States Supreme Court alone has all of the answers to the most vexing constitutional questions. If there is a central conviction of the book, it's that an underappreciation of state constitutional law has hurt state and federal law and has undermined the appropriate balance between state and federal courts in protecting individual liberty. In trying to correct this imbalance, the book also offers several ideas for reform.
