Маленькие дети учатся по другим законам, нежели мы, взрослые. Всем известно, что самый любопытный человек на Земле – это младенец. Ни один взрослый не сравнится с ребёнком по степени любопытства. Но, к сожалению, мощное детское любопытство, как правило, постепенно угасает, а в школьных стенах полностью разрушается.

It is well recognised that company law is a large and complex subject which has expanded rapidly in volume in recent years. Added to this is the continual reform to the existing law. This is partly due to the need to comply with obligations imposed on the United Kingdom from Brussels, but partly because of the increasing complexity of commercial life generally. There is no sign that the growth and reform is at an end. In addition, there are now two established series of specialist company law reports (Butterworths Company Law Cases and British Company Cases) which have obviously resulted in many more cases reaching the public domain for comment and analysis. Further, no work on Company Law can now ignore the extra-legal controls and influences on director’s conduct contained in the recent reports on corporate governance nor the proposals for reform put forward, in particular, by the Law Commission. This edition deals with the main features of both the Law Commission’s Report on Shareholder Remedies and the Law Commission’s Consultation Paper on the reform of director’s duties.

Энергетические рынки нашей страны постоянно растут и совершенствуются, усложняются и развиваются договорные отношения их участников, изменяются форматы самих рынков, корректируются их функции. В то же время отчетливо прослеживается тенденция к интеграции рынка электрической и рынка тепловой энергии, которые вследствие своей общей технологической направленности нуждаются в специфическом регулировании. Отношения, складывающиеся на этих рынках, отличаются рядом экономических особенностей, обусловленных спецификой технологического функционирования производственных объектов электро- и теплоэнергетики, что предопределяет общую правовую модель регулирования этих отношений. Для студентов, аспирантов, преподавателей, научных работников.

Il n'est pas très difficile de parler de parents, et donc de parenté, quand on est juriste : la notion relève incontestablement du droit. Il en va différemment de la parentalité. En effet, ce terme, bien que couramment employé par les sociologues, n'existe pas. Il s'agit d'un néologisme qui n'a reçu à ce jour aucune définition, ni dans un dictionnaire de langage usuel, ni comme terme juridique. Toutefois le recours à cette notion nouvelle révèle une demande, un besoin, bref une évolution qui traduit les préoccupations sociétales face à une fonction parentale aujourd'hui souvent malmenée, alors qu'apparaissent de nouvelles configurations familiales (monoparentalité, homoparentalité, familles recomposées…). Alors parenté ou parentalité ? Devons-nous opposer ces deux termes ou privilégier l'un d'eux ? Juristes, psychologues et sociologues s'attachent ici à définir ces notions et leurs avatars, tels que les éclairent leurs pratiques professionnelles. Leurs regards croisés devraient permettre de redonner un sens à la fonction parentale et de restaurer le fondement de la protection des droits de l'enfant.

The fictional representation of the family has long been regarded as a Dickensian speciality; yet any close examination of his novels reveals a remarkable disjunction between his image as the quintessential celebrant of the hearth, and his interest in fractured families. Drawing on feminist and new historicist methodologies, Catherine Waters argues that Dickens' novels record a shift in notions of the family away from stress on the importance of lineage and blood toward a new ideal of domesticity assumed to be the natural form of the family.

Can contractors and specialists add value to a project by their early involvement in design, pricing, risk management and programming? How can this be structured and what role do contracts have to play? What is the impact on procurement and project management? Commentators from Banwell to Egan have recommended earlier contractor appointments, and this has also been linked to successful project partnering. How are the two related? Early Contractor Involvement in Building Procurement considers the case for a two stage procurement approach based on a system of agreed project processes during the preconstruction phase. It examines the ways in which a contract can describe and support this model throughout its procurement, partnering and project management, and is illustrated with case studies taken from projects and programmes across the construction and engineering industry. The roles of the various parties involved, the obstacles they encounter and the benefits they can achieve are examined in detail. There is practical guidance on how to improve speed, economy, sustainability, change control, dispute avoidance, and client satisfaction. This book bridges the gap between contract law, partnering and project management and will be essential reading for middle and senior management at construction contractors, consultants and clients in both the public and private sectors.

There is always need of persons not only to discover new truths, and point out when what were once truths are true no longer, but also to commence new practices, and set the example of more enlightened conduct. The past provides many instances where the law refused to see a human being when it should have. . . . The challenge for future generations will be to define what is most essentially human. The extension of the Common Benefits Clause to acknowledge [same-sex couples] as Vermonters who seek nothing more, nor less, than legal protection and security for their avowed commitment to an intimate and lasting human relationship is simply, when all is said and done, a recognition of our common humanity.

In the first book to offer a comprehensive analysis of family law in the European Union, McGlynn argues that a traditional concept of 'family' which has many adverse effects - on individuals, on families (in all their diverse forms), and indeed on the economic ambitions of the EU is forming the basis for the little-recognised and under-researched field of EU family law. This book examines three different aspects of family life - childhood, parenthood and partnerships - and critically analyses existing EU law in relation to each. It examines the emerging field of EU family law, providing a highly sceptical account of recent developments and a robust challenge to the arguments in favour of the codification of European civil law, including family law.

The role of the law in settling family disputes has been a matter of particular debate over the past 25 years. In keeping with the general public perception, the media has been largely critical about the role of lawyers in family law matters, sustaining a general lack of confidence in the legal profession, and a more specific feeling that, in family matters, lawyers aggravate conflict or even represent a female conspiracy. The climate in which family lawyers practice in England and Wales is a harsh one. The authors of this path-breaking study felt it was time to find out more about the contributions of barristers in family law cases in the UK. Much of the study is comprised of an in-depth examination of the day-to-day activity of members of the UK Family Law Bar through observation of individual barristers as they performed their role in the context of a court hearing. In answering questions, such as whether the family justice system is excessively adversarial, whether family barristers earn too much from human unhappiness, or indeed whether those working in the front line of child protection earn enough, the authors reach some surprising conclusions. "The barrister is both mentor and guide for the client" is how they begin their conclusion; "we hope that we have shown that society should value their contribution better" is how they finish.
