Kirksey lives in Tennessee.  Sometimes he has odd visions.  Some of them are Orwellian.  He thinks a lot.  You may think he is crazy.

&lt;p&gt;This is the first socio-legal multi-jurisdictional study on hazing (ragging). This book considers four countries: the USA, India, Sri Lanka, and Australia. It states the legal position, identifies lacunas in law, and proposes possible legal solutions. Unfortunately, laws, regulations, and policies have failed to stamp out hazing from university campuses and residential colleges.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hazing has spiralled out of control in a number of countries. It has descended into a cruel, barbaric, and inhuman practice. The number of students subjected to hazing and sexual abuse is alarming. According to a 2022 survey, more than half (53%) of American students who were part of a fraternity or sorority experienced hazing. Students are murdered, harmed, abused, and suffer long-term trauma. The prevention of hazing is one of the most important responsibilities of 21st century universities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The theme of the book is that universities are in the best position to protect students from hazing and must play a vital role. As a sociological study, the book also considers why hazing occurs and what can be done to prevent it. Without engaging with the underlying causes, legal punitive measures continue to address the symptom rather than the cause. The book, therefore, explores how a more innovative approach to regulation can help tackle the cause.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The book will be of interest to policy makers, regulators at universities, education and legal academics, and personal injury lawyers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Hazing (Ragging) at Universities: A Legal Perspective

Akademische Arbeit aus dem Jahr 2021 im Fachbereich Jura - Zivilprozessrecht, Note: 5.0, University of Lagos (Law), Veranstaltung: Law, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: "Competence" and "compellability" are two distinct terminologies as far as the law of evidence is concerned in relation to witnesses. Distinguished Professor Osipitan SAN differentiated the two in the following words: “Competence deals with the status of a witness to testify in court proceedings while Compellability deals with the powers of the court to force/compel a competent witness to attend court proceedings purposely to testify or tender (a) document(s)”. It follows that for a person to be compellable to testify in court, he must first qualify as a competent witness.

&lt;p&gt;Wie stehen Methodenlehre und juristische Argumentation zueinander? Was ist juristische Argumentation, was „bloße“ Rhetorik? Das Lehrbuch zur juristischen Argumentationstheorie stellt die Modelle juristischen Argumentierens vor und unterzieht sie einer (kritischen) Würdigung. Das betrifft etwa die Argumentationsanalyse seitens der „Strukturierenden Rechtslehre“ und das sogenannte „pragma-dialektische“ Modell der Argumentation. Explizit warnt der Band vor einem postmodernen Irrationalismus, der die Regelorientierung juristischen Argumentierens grundsätzlich in Zweifel zieht. Das Lehrbuch zeigt auf, wie die „Produktion“ von rechtlichen Entscheidungen und subgesetzlichen Regeln rational kontrollierbar und kritisierbar wird; es leistet damit einen Beitrag zu einer im besten Sinne kritischen Rechtswissenschaft.&lt;/p&gt;

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Law - IT law, , language: English, abstract: This article intends to discuss on the development of electronic evidence in Tanzania. In my discussion, I will begin with a conceptualization of electronic evidence, the first hindrance while dealing with the development of electronic evidence in Tanzania and the Admissibility of Electronic Evidence in Tanzania with the aid of case Laws.The further part of the article provides the Nature of Electronic Evidence and how it is created. The next part of this article includes certain Challenges associated with Electronic Evidence. Additionally and lastly, it will provide a brief discuss on the analysis of the evidence act and the Authentication of electronic evidence. In the past few years, the world has experienced some major changes due to the advancement of science and technology. This technological advancement tends to affect almost every field and sector across the world. Under such circumstances the legal field cannot keep lagging behind but cope with the changes and improvements the world is currently facing. This accounts for the rise or the birth of electronic evidence which owes its origin to technological advancement .Basically the court and the whole of the legal fielding general had to cope with the contemporary world and at the pace of the world to ensure justice is done. This is because it is a common knowledge that evidence is the cornerstone of the judgments given in the courts.

American Literature Readings in the 21st Century

This book illustrates how Korean American novels and poetry use anger to enact change, foregrounding the various ways it can pinpoint injustice and suggest alternatives. Experiences of the "forgotten" Korean War, Korean military-mediated immigration to the US in the twentieth century, and the role of Korean Americans in some of the largest upheavals in American history all inform a specific relation to anger and both its expression and use in Korean American literature. Through various texts comprised of both poetry and prose from authors including Steph Cha, Cathy Park Hong, Eugene Lim, and Yongsoo Park, Willems highlights how anger is seen to function in some contexts as a positive fulcrum for change.&nbsp;Brian Willems&nbsp;is Professor in the Department of English Language and Literature at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Split, Croatia.&nbsp;

Academic Paper from the year 2021 in the subject Law - Civil Action / Lawsuit Law, grade: 5.0, University of Lagos (Law), course: Law, language: English, abstract: This paper sets out to analyze the application of good and bad character evidence to criminal proceedings within the corpus of the Evidence Act, 2011. The term "character" has been defined by several legal writers and Judges for the purpose of determining its scope in the light of the law of evidence. The general consensus from the several definitions is that “character” is the general reputation as opposed to his disposition. Under the Nigerian Evidence Act 2011, the same definition was given pursuant to section 77 which defines the expression “character” to mean reputation as distinguished from disposition. It goes on to state that except as mentioned in sections 78 to 82, evidence may be given only of the general reputation, and not of the particular acts by which reputation or disposition is shown.Unlike in civil proceedings, the Evidence Act creates a distinction between bad and good character for the purpose of determining the admissibility of character evidence in criminal proceedings.

Anger in Politics

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2018 in the subject Economics - Case Scenarios, , language: English, abstract: Publicly Owned Enterprises (POEs) in Kosovo are present largely in the market, with a focus on sectors such as electricity, railways, telecommunications, waste management, etc. This presence is followed by the constant need for subsidies from the government and weak financial and commercial performance. POEs in Kosovo are faced with numerous challenges including weak governance and management. Agency Theory is used widely as a tool with which to explain governance and functioning of organisations and companies. In addition, Agency Theory is used to explore relations between stakeholders in politics and the economy. This study first elaborates upon the applicability of Principal–Agent Theory in POEs in Kosovo and then identifies the presence of principal–agent problems and identifies the nexus between such problems and poor performance of POEs. Identification of principal–agent problems may help to identify the reason for poor performance of POEs and the lack of transparency, accountability and supervision. POEs are subsidised by the state on an annual basis, which makes the identification of problems in having profitable POEs important for public interests, too. Such importance is due not only to the fact that POEs are financed by taxpayers but also to the fact that they are supposed to provide services in public interests by being self-sustainable and profitable for the government as a shareholder. The study aims to conclude that principal–agent problems such as capture, rent-seeking, moral hazard, information asymmetry and adverse selection are present in POEs in Kosovo, and that they have a negative impact on their performance. Such principal–agent problems and their negative performance may also be influenced by gaps in legislation and weak law enforcement.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;Societal Stress and Law&lt;/i&gt; draws attention to the social side effects of law by developing the sociological concept of society-level stress, a corollary of the concept of individual-level stress in the biological sciences.&amp;nbsp;To encourage interest in societal stress, the book looks at (1) instances of law adopted by American states that the U.S. Supreme Court held unconstitutional and (2) actions by American states with regard to a proposal to amend the federal Constitution.&amp;nbsp;The Court rulings and the proposed constitutional amendment were capable of producing societal stress because they were seen by a sizeable segment of the U.S. public as being incompatible with significant American traditions.&amp;nbsp;In original studies that apply logistic regression to state-level statistical data, the book identifies sociological variables that predict state differences in the adoption of this law and state differences in actions on the proposed constitutional amendment.&amp;nbsp;Because these variables represent societal agents that affected whether a state experienced social stress from the rulings and proposal, the book blends theory with empirical research and illustrates how each can support the other in law-focused scholarship.&lt;/p&gt;
