"Words hurt for life" – legal aspects of verbal punishment of children

Author(s): Sylwia Rózycka-Jaros / Language(s): English / Issue: 2/2016

This paper is dedicated to the issues of verbal punishment of children during the upbringing process. Statistics show that this is the most common type of punishment of children used by parents. Unfortunately, it often takes the form of a humiliating criticism, shouts or intimidation. All this affects negatively the child’s psyche. Taking into consideration the amendments which introduced a total prohibition on using corporal punishment towards children to Polish legislation, the issue of the limits of verbal punishments permitted by law still remains unsolved. Apart from a short definition and the description of the scale of this phenomenon, this paper is mainly dedicated to a legal analysis, which takes into account the stances of the doctrines of criminal and civil law. This paper attempts to give a straight answer to the doubts concerning this matter.

A Study on Assertivness, Efficiency and the Quality of Judicial Work

Author(s): Aleksandar S. Mojaševic,Sandra Mojaševic / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2017

A Study on Assertivness, Efficiency and the Quality of Judicial WorkThe subject matter of this research is the correlation between the judges’ assertiveness and the efficiency and quality of judicial work. The primary aim is to examine whether there is a correlation between the judges’ assertiveness, on the one hand, and the efficiency and quality of their work, on the other hand. The second aim is to explore the correlation between the efficiency and quality of judicial work. The starting premise is that there is a correlation between particular indicators of these variables. Judges’ assertiveness is a conditionally independent variable used as a referential point for measuring two conditionally dependent variables: the efficiency and the work quality of the judiciary. The assertiveness was measured by a standardized questionnaire which was distributed to a research sample including 40 judges from the Criminal Department and the Civil Department of the Basic Court in Niš in May 2015. The efficiency of judicial work was measured by employing four indicators: the clearance rate (CR), the disposition time (DT), the clearance coefficient (CC) and the percentage of solved cases as related to the total number of cases (PS), whereas the quality of judicial work was assessed by measuring the overall work quality (WQ). The data on the efficiency and quality of judicial work were collected from the 2014 Report on the work of the judges in the Civil Department and the Criminal Department of the Basic Court in Niš. Contrary to our expectation, the most important finding is that there is no correlation between assertiveness and the efficiency and quality of judicial work; however, there are various correlations between the aforementioned indicators of efficiency and quality of judicial work.

An Hypothesis over IF Trainings

Author(s): Paul Marinescu / Language(s): English / Issue: 6/2012

The present article aims to make value of already classical concepts of Complex Systems Theory, such as: entropy, syntropy, emergence, feedback, complementarity. Personal experiences in the field of training have demonstrated to me that this can be regarded as a complex system, in which all specific laws of such can be applied. Comparisons I’ve made over the years between theoretical models and the real world have shown that we always tend towards models, we never achieve them, but it is important that we set them as targets.

Analiza argumentu zdrowia publicznego w dyskusji nad legalizacją miękkich narkotyków

Author(s): Katarzyna Grotkowska,Konrad kobylinski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 76/2016

The purpose of the present text is to provide analysis of the public health argument in the context of the debate over legalisation of soft narcotics. The first part provides an explanation of the terms used, followed by an analysis of the term ‘public health’ in the legal terminology. The analysis of this termand the arguments built on that basis leads to a conclusion that the public health argument in the discussion about legalisation of soft narcotics is little convincing and lacks a sound, theoretical basis. Despite the fact that public health remains among the arguments most often raised in the narcotics discourse, in the final part of this work – drawing on the study of J. Haid in the area of psychology of morality – a possible explanation is presented as to why the argument of public health remains popular.

Analiza prawnej i faktycznej sytuacji poręczyciela – wybrane zagadnienia

Author(s): Lukasz Jurek,Rafal Maciag / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 1/2012

This paper highlights the issues arising from an obligation such as surety. Under the provisions of the Polish Civil Code, the legal position of a guarantor is closely related to non-legal factors. The ambiguity and uncertainty of the status of a guarantor are even greater due to the variability in time of the normative construction of a surety. Therefore, in addition to the measures available in law, a certain counterweight, such as the general public values, is necessary to address this state of affairs. The most widely understood trust, being the necessary condition for the proper development of a modern democratic state of law, may undoubtedly play that role.

Arab customary law and the modern Western idea of restorative justice

Author(s): Ewa Górska,Jan Bazyli Klakla / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2017

Arab customary conflict resolution and the alternative Western approach to dispute resolution are both the result of a similar way of administering justice – a restorative justice paradigm. Thus, we argue that it is not a new or a strictly western concept given that its fundamental values or even structures have existed in the customary laws of different cultures, like Arab culture, for centuries. In this article, we compare Western restorative justice institutions with the Arab customary conflict resolution process (sulh) used in contemporary Palestine.

Asymetria ryzyka a zasada sprawiedliwości społecznej na tle problemu kredytów we frankach szwajcarskich

Author(s): Anna Jurkowska-Zeidler / Language(s): Polish / Issue: XXXV/2016

The appreciation of the Swiss franc at the beginning of 2015 has shown the scale of the currency risk for home loans in Swiss francs, the possibility of the unforeseen increase of further debt and the increase of the cost of servicing the loan beyond the financial capacity of the borrower. This sparked an intense public debate on the relevance and the manner of possible actions that should be undertaken in order to reduce risk associated with loans granted (denominated / indexed) in Swiss francs, which are dominant among home loans in foreign currency in the Polish banking system. Most borrowers did not realize the risk associated with this type of loans which de-facto were a kind of foreign currency speculation associated with significant foreign exchange risk. This risk has become real in recent years and has significantly increased the debt service costs. Additionally, bank shave increased their salaries by using high currency spread rate that is disadvantageous for borrowers. The asymmetry of risk existing in the context of foreign currency loans denominated or indexed in Swiss francs justifies the need for equitable distribution of its costs. The system solutions with regard to risk-sharing should be determined by the principle of social justice.

Behemot i Lewiatan w oceanie polityczności. Carl Schmitt: przestrzeń, prawo, polityka. Część II

Author(s): Tomasz Tulejski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 99/2016

The Author analyses Carl Schmitt’s concept of the opposition between land and sea as a universal historical construct. According to the author of Nomos der Erde world history is the history of wars waged by maritime powers against land or continental powers and by land powers against sea or maritime powers. He uses biblical symbols to denote this historical conflict: a land power is symbolically represented as a giant land beast Behemoth, while a maritime power is portrayed as a giant sea beast Leviathan. The Author argues that the Age of Discovery marked the beginning of a new era of war between talassocracy and telurocracy. According to Schmitt, this spatial revolution constituted a part of the fundamental forces of history, which bring new lands and new seas into human awareness. The process of the colonization of the New World by Europeans included a struggle between terrestrial Catholicism and maritime Protestantism, between the sovereign state and the liberal state as well as two kinds of international law.
