The Guarantees for Accused Persons Under Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights
Author: Stephanos Stavros
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004481869
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
In recent times Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which protects the right to a fair trial has been increasingly raised by applicants who allege its breach in proceedings involving criminal or quasi-criminal charges. The extensive case law emanating from Strasburg that has thus been spawned has resulted in the formulation of detailed rules dictating the content of the guarantees afforded by Article 6. Indeed, a pan-European procedural standard for accused persons is beginning to emerge. This book is the first to make an in-depth analysis of the case law, and goes on to compare the European Convention cases with decisions which have arisen from the interpretation of other international instruments. The author's careful, meticulous research reveals that Article 6 has been interpreted in such a way that the standards required for proceedings designated under national law as criminal, are different than the standards applied to disciplinary and other administrative proceedings. The book goes on to attempt to identify the judicial policy pursued by the European Court and Commission when construing Article 6, while proposing a fresh approach to the problems raised by the applications of the detailed guarantees of the provisions in proceedings of a widely varied nature. Dr Stavros has been a member of the Athens Bar since 1987. He is currently employed as a legal expert by the Directorate of European Communities Affairs of the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 365
Book Description
When Research Matters considers the complex and crucially important relationship between education research and policy. In examining how and under what conditions research affects education policy, the book focuses on a number of critical issues: the history of the federal role in education policy; the evolving nature of educational policy research; the role of research in debates about reading, NCLB, and “out-of-field” teaching; how research affects policy by shaping public opinion, judicial rulings, and the decisions of district and school leaders; and the incentives that help explain the behavior of researchers and policymakers.

A Race Against Time
Author: James G. Cibulka
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313051364
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
We are in a race against time to save urban children from educational failure and to reform urban school systems before people give up on them. The authors examine the effectiveness of three reform approaches: systems reform, mayoral influence, and external state or federal intervention, using case studies from seven large cities, as well as state and national trends. The social and economic transformation of large American cities after World War II laid the seeds for the crisis in urban education that has festered and grown since the 1950s. Decades of appalling test scores and failure rates, and of unsuccessful piecemeal efforts to improve urban education, have led the public and policymakers to embrace radical solutions to reform. Three approaches to the reform of urban school governance are discussed and analyzed, using data from seven large cities (Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., and New York), national trends, and a statewide analysis of Maryland's school accountability system. The first approach, systems reform, focuses on improving the governance of urban education by overcoming policy fragmentation through standards for student performance, student assessments, and accountability, among other things. Strong mayoral roles offer a second reform approach that largely reverses the Progressive-era reforms of the last century separating schools from city politics. Its supporters believe urban mayors can restore accountability, stability, and political support for urban schools. The third reform approach assumes that external intervention by federal or state authorities is needed to restore accountability and improve system performance.

The Long Flowing River
Author: Case Stromenberg
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1450240283
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
The story, not the technique In order to travel down The Long Flowing River, the author frankly assesses some inadequacies of science and religion, and goes a different way by exploring an ancient epic story. Here is a contemporary spiritual search that is paradoxically as old as the hills, about personal meaning and yet not about the authors own biography. As he says in the Preface, his search had to be less subjective and much broader in scope. not just a private matter as there were some major issues involved. The book questions why some of the best in religion and spirituality, including those based on the man Abraham (Ibrahim), has become so very lost or twisted. Is there still a heart of gold to be found among the many versions of his spirituality? That was the authors search, of which he tells as he travels down The Long Flowing River.
