sobriety checkpoints in thailand a review of effectiveness and developments over time
Asia-Pacific Journal of Public Health, 2015Co-Authors: V Ditsuwan, Lennert J Veerman, Melanie BertramAbstract:This review describes the Legal Basis for and implementation of sobriety checkpoints in Thailand and identifies factors that influenced their historical development and effectiveness. The first alcohol and traffic injury control law in Thailand was implemented in 1934. The 0.05 g/100 mL blood alcohol concentration limit was set in 1994. Currently, 3 types of sobriety checkpoints are used: general police checkpoints, selective breath testing, and special event sobriety checkpoints. The authors found few reports on the strategies, frequencies, and outcomes for any of these types of checkpoints, despite Thailand having devoted many resources to their implementation. In Thailand and other low-middle income countries, it is necessary to address the country-specific barriers to successful enforcement (including political and logistical issues, lack of equipment, and absence of other supportive alcohol harm reduction measures) before sobriety checkpoints can be expected to be as effective as reported in high-income countries.

responsible conduct of radiology research part i the regulatory framework for human research
Radiology, 2005Co-Authors: Jeffrey A CooperAbstract:The purpose of the articles in this series is to explain the ethical and Legal Basis for responsible conduct of radiology research. In the current article, the regulatory framework of human research is explained. There is no overall regulatory process for protecting the rights and welfare of humans participating in research. Instead, Legal protections in the United States are an amalgam of regulations from multiple federal and state agencies. The key regulations are from the Department of Health and Human Services, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Federal Privacy Rule of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. Which of these apply in any situation depends on many factors, including the funding source of the research, the site of the research, and the items being tested. Radiologists conducting human research need to know which regulations apply and how to comply with them. The regulations represent a set of rules based on the ethical principles of respect for persons, beneficence...

Legal Basis and scope of the human rights clauses in ec bilateral agreements any room for positive interpretation
European Law Journal, 2001Co-Authors: Elena FierroAbstract:It is well known nowadays that the European Community includes a so‐called human rights clause into the framework agreements that it concludes with third countries. It is also widely recognised that, in virtue of the relevant provisions of the Vienna Convention on the Law of the Treaties, such a clause grants the Community a right to suspend the agreement should human rights and/or democratic principles be breached. The question to be explored in the present paper is whether, in the light of its Legal Basis, the clause fulfils a mere ‘negative’ or ‘sanctioning’ function or, by contrast, there is room for the pursuit of positive measures of active promotion of human rights—that is the granting of technical and financial aid. It is argued here that the clauses present an ideal starting point for the pursuit of a comprehensive human rights policy at the EU level. Such a policy should encompass positive measures in the first place, systematic dialogue in the second, and suspension or negative measures of less extent only as ultima ratio in particularly grave cases which cannot be addressed through ordinary (dialogue and aid) routes.
