(In)Efficient Use of International Law: Case Study of the Dayton System in BiH

Author(s): Tomáš Jungwirth / Language(s): English / Issue: 4/2013

This paper aims to analyse the existent legal and political system of Bosnia and Herzegovina from the viewpoint of effective applicability of international law. It first deals with the general issue of the relationship between international law, domestic political structures and the individual, consequently moving to the specific case study of the Dayton system. The question arises whether such an excessive intervention was at all capable of establishing a stable institutional framework and of uprooting the enmities between the sides to the conflict. Certain criteria for the effective application of international law are drafted, in light of which the presented data are evaluated. A critical conclusion follows, defining the key setbacks of the Dayton system and hinting to possible alternative approaches.

(Ni)kakav osvrt? Period 1933-1945. iz ugla jednog notara

Author(s): Oliver Vossius / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 3-4/2016

Author puts forth view that after 1945. the Third Reich became a topic to be reviewed not merely by historians. In the 1960’s lawyers also begin to analyse their own past. Professor Ilse Staff (born in 1928) is at the forefront of this movement. Her book „Judiciary in the Third Reich: A Documentation“, published in 1964, encouraged numerous German lawyers to face the evils of country’s authoritarian past. In his text, Vossius presents results of years of analysing the abuse of German law during Nazi rule. One of the main topics of his research is the role of notaries in the forced appropriation of property from the Jews. He closes his presentation in the following way: „We probably owe gratituted to total defeat of 1945 and the subsequent regime of occupation zones for being at all able to discuss this topic in Germany today. After the initial hesitation, this still lead to the regaining of conscience. I don’t know if world will necessary become a better place in this manner. Fritz Bauer once said „We cannot make Heaven on Earth, but each one of us is capable of contributing to making it Hell“. In this regard, casting a look backwards seems a better option than to overlook or repress such a problem“.

,,Sąd nad św. Franciszkiem z Asyżu” Giotta – próba prawniczej egzegezy

Author(s): Karol Adamczewski / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 4/2017

The fresco painted by Giotto Bondone showing the Renunciation of Worldly Goods by St. Francis undoubtedly arouses aesthetic and spiritual feelings. Nevertheless, the scene presented by Giotto also bears some legal characteristics. Thus, it may become a subject of some interesting discussions in the legal sense. First of all, its convention resembles to some extent a dispute before court where the parties and a judge take part in the proceedings. The characters presented, particularly father, son and the bishop, indirectly refer to such important legal institutions as patria potestas and audientia episcopalis. The subject of the dispute is also significant. In the analyzed scene, it relates to the inheritance of property rights and a demand to be obedient to the paternal authority. The relationship between the secular and spiritual power also constitutes a certain problem. Moreover, the issue of divine and human justice is raised. Therefore, the fresco of the Italian master bearing an artistic value might become a subject of a legal reflection and in this way fit the suggested approach: art in the law and law in the art .

Rad na njegovom donošenju otpočeo je 1855. godine, podstaknut idejom kneza Aleksandra Karađorđevića da je Srbiji potreban jedan „podpun Zakon kriminalni“, pošto ovaj „najsnažnije garancije podaje za obezbeđenje ne samo ličnosti, česti i slobode, pa i života pojedini građana, no i samoga reda i spokojstva zemaljskog“.

1648 or 1948? No Room for Westphalia in the Middle-East

Author(s): Gal Amir / Language(s): German / Issue: 1/2018

The article reviews the ‘religious communities' arrangement’ in Israeli family law, an arrangement that divides the citizens of Israel into religious communities, regulating their affairs of ‘personal status’ in separate religious courts, adjudicating in accordance with religious law. The article demonstrates that the Arrangement defies the concept of state sovereignty, as it is not based on ‘Westphalian’ concepts of space and territory, but on a different concept, originated in Israel's history, and Islamic pre-modern concepts such as ‘umma’ and ‘millet’ – The ecclesiastical community of believers defying perceptions of political boundaries, and other communities of non-believers, subjected to it. The article concludes with a possible justification for this challenge of the state's sovereignty, rooted in ideas of legal pluralism.

200. výročí ABGB a české právnické fakulty

Author(s): Ondřej Horák / Language(s): Czech / Issue: 2/2012

Loňský rok byl pro českou právnickou veřejnost rokem kodifikací. Připomínali jsme si dvě stě let od vyhlášení Všeobecného občanského zákoníku (ABGB) a současně byl dokončen a parlamentu předložen ke schválení nový občanský zákoník. Propojení obou událostí má svůj nepominutelný symbolický rozměr, protože rekodifikace českého práva se prostřednictvím vládního návrhu z roku 1937 programově vrací právě k česko- rakouskému občanskému zákoníku z roku 1811.

70 lat Powszechnej Deklaracji Praw Człowieka – pomnik czy żywy dokument?

Author(s): Zdzisław Kędzia / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 4/2018

The article poses a question about the current meaning of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The starting point is the analysis of the legitimacy of the Declaration, which leads to the conclusion that the support for it has not been eroded by the passage of time, but has indeed gained strength. The Declaration՚s message of the universality of human rights is tackled from the perspective of the controversy over this principle in the drafting process and in the light of the debates held in preparation for the Second World Conference on Human Rights in Vienna in 1993 and during the Conference itself. The Vienna Declaration and Programme of Action not only stressed that the universal nature of human rights is beyond question, but also pointed to the importance of national and regional specificities, and various historical, cultural and religious conditions that, however, do not relieve states, regardless of their political, economic and cultural systems, of the obligation to promote and protect all human rights. The InterAction Council’s initiative to develop a Universal Declaration of Human Responsibility is presented as an attempt to reconcile different doctrinal and political positions with regard to the universality of human rights. The conclusion of these considerations is the expectation that the already visible tendency to absorb various philosophical, doctrinal and cultural traditions in order to enrich human rights justifications will prevail over attempts to question the universality of rights in the name of regional or other distinctions. The Universal Declaration was also a testimony to the holistic approach to human rights, encompassing economic, social, cultural, as well as personal and political rights. The subsequent winding road in attitudes to the two main categories of rights at the international arena ultimately led to the return of the spirit and letter of the Declaration and the recognition of equality of all rights in the legal and institutional-procedural dimensions. Various aspects of the Declaration’s binding force and related controversies have been analysed in the context of its status as a resolution of the UN General Assembly, as an interpretation of the UN Charter, as part of customary law and jus cogens, and the concept of so-called UN law. The last part attempts to justify why the Declaration should be seen as a living instrument.

735 lat zwalczania i... Rzecz o korupcji w Rosji

Author(s): Katarzyna Laskowska / Language(s): Polish / Issue: 2/2009

The phenomenon of corruption in Russia, shown in the historical perspective, is described here by changes of legislation in this matter throughout the ages. It is clearly seen that changes of legal regulation tried to penalize many new aspects of bribery and to increase of penalty. The attitude of the society, both Russian and Soviet, shows that legal regulations have been ignored not only by citizens, but also by the state’s officers. The scale of corruption now and damages it causes is an evidence that there is no effective system of protection against these crimes in Russia.
