if afghanistan has failed then afghanistan is dead failed states and the inappropriate substitution of Legal Conclusion for political description
2014Co-Authors: David D CaronAbstract:Amidst the focus on the way in which Bush administration Legal advisors defined the crime of torture, a fundamentally radical doctrine of law has slipped through almost unnoticed. This essay points to a startling and exceptionally dangerous concoction - the "failed state doctrine" - invoked in Bush administration Legal memoranda. To be blunt, the failed state doctrine is a fabrication.

Abstracta Iranica. Revue bibliographique pour le domaine irano-aryen, 2008Co-Authors: Anicee Van EngelandAbstract:L’argument de l’A. est que la notion de failed state est une fabrication. Selon lui, cette qualification permet de conclure que le droit international humanitaire et les quatre conventions de Geneve de 1949 ne s’appliquent pas du tout en Afghanistan.

The broadband Internet: the end of the equal voice?
Proceedings of the tenth conference on Computers freedom and privacy challenging the assumptions - CFP '00, 2000Co-Authors: John B. Morris, Jerry BermanAbstract:As the fast-moving and hard-fought “open access to cable” debate continues – in both the United States and Canada – and perhaps moves toward resolution, it is vital to recognize that there are significant “openness” and free speech issues concerning broadband Internet access that have little or nothing to do with the cable debate. This essay looks at one such issue – an issue that is only now beginning to take shape. As described below, the emerging content distribution model on the Internet could diminish or eliminate the rough “equality of voice” between small and large speakers that is a key characteristic of the narrowband Internet. Unless those involved in creating and shaping the Internet – from network engineers to corporate leaders to public policy advocates – take steps to address this issue, we risk seeing changes in the Internet that could threaten the Legal Conclusion that speech on the Internet deserves the highest level of protection that the United States Constitution can afford.

ISTIQRĀ’ DAN PENERAPANNYA TERHADAP AL-QAWĀ`ID AL-FIQHIYYAH
Jurnal Ilmiah Mizani: Wacana Hukum Ekonomi Dan Keagamaan, 2019Co-Authors: Safriadi SafriadiAbstract:Al-Qawā‘id al-Fiqhiyyah is a general theory of Islamic law produced through the istiqra’ '(induction) process. But such affirmation has never been done and to do so requires adequate evidence and analysis of the working techniques of al-Qawā‘id al-Fiqhiyyah. The author in this study conducted a study of al-Qawā‘id al-Fiqhiyyah compiled by Tāj al-Din al-Subki in his work al-Asybāh wa al-naẓā‘ir. This research is a library research with an approach to the philosophy of Islamic law. The results state that the work method istiqrā ', namely the principle of thinking that draws Conclusions from empirical research on particular events into a unity of universal law. This Legal Conclusion will be applied (prediction) to the object of the problem which still has relevance to the particular things mentioned earlier. The role of istiqrā 'in the preparation of al-Qawā'id al-Fiqhiyyah in particular al-Qawā'id al-Asāsiyah is to take the essence of the rules of fiqh (furū') which have similarity to illat or wisdom which results are then formulated in general rules which includes cases of particular law below. Besides that, each rule always includes exceptions (muśtanāyat). This form of exception is in terms of the problem of induction in logic.

Health care decision-making capacity: a Legal perspective for long-term care providers.
Journal of the American Medical Directors Association, 2006Co-Authors: Stuart D. ZimringAbstract:While federal law establishes guidelines that designated facilities must follow in providing information about a patient's rights regarding self-determination in the health care decision-making process, state law determines the decision-making process and the Legal requirements pertaining thereto. A person's capacity to make health care decisions or to have the authority and capacity to delegate the right to make such decisions is a Legal Conclusion based on statutory and common law principles. This article discusses the Legal perspective of capacity in health care decision making and the Legal framework of the question of whether or not a person has the capacity to make health care decisions. Western civilization's concepts of personal autonomy and self-determination are at the core of health care decision making, but health care providers must be aware that other cultures do not always share that value system. Sensitivity to multicultural diversity in this context is imperative to maintain individual self-esteem and respect, both for the patient and the patient's family.
