Book Description
L'étude de l’institution de la prescription en matière pénale demeure une question d'actualité. C'est un principe très ancien qui se base sur des fondements et des justifications liés à des raisons de politique criminelle. Les principes de cette institution ont évolué à la lumière de nombreuses controverses. Depuis un demi siècle, cette institution a subi le plus grand nombre d'exceptions de toute son histoire. Une de 1964 a introduit l'imprescriptibilité des crimes contre l'humanité en droit pénal français. Depuis, de nombreuses modifications législatives, dérogatoires au droit commun, concernent le délai de la prescription, durée et point de départ quant à certaines infractions. La jurisprudence montre son hostilité à l'acquisition de la prescription en reculant le point de départ du délai et en interprétant de manière extensive les causes d'interruption et de suspension. Elles sont critiquées par la doctrine en raison du rythme et de l'incohérence des réformes.

Crime, Shame and Reintegration
Author: John Braithwaite
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521356688
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Crime, Shame and Reintegration is a contribution to general criminological theory. Its approach is as relevant to professional burglary as to episodic delinquency or white collar crime. Braithwaite argues that some societies have higher crime rates than others because of their different processes of shaming wrongdoing. Shaming can be counterproductive, making crime problems worse. But when shaming is done within a cultural context of respect for the offender, it can be an extraordinarily powerful, efficient and just form of social control. Braithwaite identifies the social conditions for such successful shaming. If his theory is right, radically different criminal justice policies are needed - a shift away from punitive social control toward greater emphasis on moralizing social control. This book will be of interest not only to criminologists and sociologists, but to those in law, public administration and politics who are concerned with social policy and social issues.

The Effects of Financial Crises on the Binding Force of Contracts - Renegotiation, Rescission or Revision
Author: Başak Başoğlu
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 331927256X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This book is about one of the most controversial dilemmas of contract law: whether or not the unexpected change of circumstances due to the effects of financial crises may under certain conditions be taken into account. Growing interconnectedness of global economies facilitates the spread of the effects of the financial crises. Financial crises cause severe difficulties for persons to fulfill their contractual obligations. During the financial crises, performance of contractual obligations may become excessively onerous or may cause an excessive loss for one of the contracting parties and consequently destroy the contractual equilibrium and legitimate the governmental interventions. Uncomfortable economic climate leads to one of the most controversial dilemmas of the contract law: whether the binding force of the contract is absolute or not. In other words, unstable economic circumstances impose the need to devote special attention to review and perhaps to narrow the binding nature of a contract. Principle of good faith and fair dealing motivate a variety of theoretical bases in order to overcome the legal consequences of financial crises. In this book, all these theoretical bases are analyzed with special focus on the available remedies, namely renegotiation, rescission or revision and the circumstances which enables the revocation of these remedies. The book collects the 19 national reports and the general report originally presented in the session regarding the Effects of Financial Crises on the Binding Force of Contracts: Renegotiation, Rescission or Revision during the XIXth congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law, held in Vienna, July 2014.

An Introduction to the African Convention on the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources
Author: World Conservation Union
Publisher: IUCN
ISBN: 9782831709130
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
The African Convention on the conservation of nature and natural resources was adopted in 1968 in Algiers. Considered the most forward looking regional agreement of the time, it influenced significantly the development of environmental law in Africa. Two and a half decades of intense developments in international environmental law made it necessary to revise this treaty, update its provisions and enlarge its scope. This was undertaken under the auspices of the African Union (previously OAU), and the revision was adopted by its Heads of State and Government in July 2003 in Maputo. The introduction provides an overview of this new international treaty, as well as a commentary to each of its provisions.
