Dishonorable Passions
By: Eskridge, William N.
Published by: Viking

A fascinating one-of-a-kind history of the government’s regulation of sexual behavior. From the Pentagon to the wedding chapel, there are few issues more controversial today than gay rights. As William Eskridge persuasively demonstrates in Dishonorable Passions, there is nothing new about this political and legal obsession. The American colonies and the early states prohibited sodomy as the “crime against nature,” but rarely punished such conduct if it took place behind closed doors. By the twentieth century, America’s emerging regulatory state targeted “degenerates” and (later) “homosexuals.” The witch hunts of the McCarthy era caught very few Communists but ruined the lives of thousands of homosexuals. The nation’s sexual revolution of the 1960s fueled a social movement of people seeking repeal of sodomy laws, but it was not until the Supreme Court’s decision in Lawrence v. Texas (2003) that private sex between consenting adults was decriminalized. With dramatic stories of both the hunted (Walt Whitman and Margaret Mead) and the hunters (Earl Warren and J. Edgar Hoover), Dishonorable Passions reveals how American sodomy laws affected the lives of both homosexual and heterosexual Americans. Certain to provoke heated debate, Dishonorable Passions is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of sexuality and its regulation in the United States. more...

Eigentum
By: Depenheuer, Otto (ed.)
Published by: Springer

Band 2 der Bibliothek des Eigentums gibt einen umfassenden berblick ber die geistige Befindlichkeit Deutschlands in Ansehung des privaten Eigentums. Die Ordnungs- und Freiheitsidee des Eigentums kann nur dann dauerhaft im gesellschaftlichen Bewusstsein verankert werden, wenn sich die Politik der vergleichenden und kontrastierenden, der befruchtenden ebenso wie der korrigierenden Diskussion im politischen wie im wissenschaftlichen Raum stellt und darin besteht. In diesem Sinne stellen die Beitrge den politischen Blick auf das Privateigentum dem juristischen, den philosophischen dem konomischen sowie den sozialethischen dem sozialwissenschaftlichen gegenber. more...

Eigentum an Körperteilen
By: Roth, Carsten
Published by: Springer

Das Buch untersucht die Bestimmungsrechte am menschlichen KArper und seiner Teile in den verschiedenen Phasen der kArperlichen Existenz aus grundrechtlicher, insbesondere eigentumsrechtlicher Perspektive.

Hierbei werden auch die verfassungsrechtlichen Grenzen einer eigentumsrechtlichen Einordnung (z.B. bzgl. der EigentumsfAhigkeit des Leichnams) und der Kommerzialisierung untersucht, wobei insbesondere auf die Reichweite von Art. 1 Abs. 1 Satz 1 GG in diesem Kontext eingegangen wird. In den Blick genommen werden sowohl die postnatale Phase der kArperlichen Existenz als auch die prAnatale und die postmortale. more...

Environmental Justice and the Rights of Indigenous Peoples
By: Westra, Laura
Published by: Earthscan

‘The timing of Laura Westra’s important work couldn’t be better in furthering the understanding between environmental degradation and the human rights of indigenous peoples. The world can no longer carry on "business as usual" when the basic rights of the vulnerable are being diminished and often destroyed due to a "disconnect" between development and environmental protection. Laura’s work will no doubt help to connect these crucial dots of the disproportionate negative extended ecological footprint of a globalized economy on the Arctic and its people.’ Sheila Watt-Cloutier OC Citizen Advocate on Arctic Climate Change Former Chair of the Inuit Circumpolar Council and Nobel Peace Prize nominee 2007 ‘Highly readable informative passionate. This volume provides an intellectually stimulating contribution to exploring the complex interface between eco-biological integrity and indigenous identity in the era of globalization while offering critical insights into international and comparative human rights jurisprudence.’ Gaetano Pentassuglia Liverpool Law School University of Liverpool UK ‘Raphael Lemkin the man who invented the word "genocide" (1944) stressed the criminality of "cultural genocide" of national groups. Laura Westra’s book comes as a thought-provoking and well documented step to follow Lemkin’s path as far as the groups today most vulnerable to cultural genocide are concerned.’ Tullio Scovazzi Professor of International Law University of Milano-Bicocca Milan Italy More than 300 million people in over 70 countries make up the world’s indigenous populations. Yet despite ever-growing pressures on their lands environment and way of life through outside factors such as climate change and globalization their rights in these and other respects are still not fully recognized in international law. In this incisive book Laura Westra deftly reveals the lethal effects that more...
