Competing Narratives in a Case Biography: A Tale of Two Citadels

This article is the fourth in a series introducing the reader to methods and theories relevant to advancing socio-legal research. They are written for the curious rather than the expert reader and provide illustrations of how the theories, methods, and frameworks have been employed and might be used in your work. This article explores the use of case biography methods for socio-legal studies. Drawing on ‘paths to justice’ studies, network analysis, and legal archaeology, we develop a case study of AC v.Berkshire West Primary Care Trust. We show how the judicial determination of the case suppressed a transgender rights narrative construction of the dispute in favour of one about health care law. Our case biography analysis explores how competing narratives can be traced not only through legal argument and literature, but also through the personnel involved, in ways that are obscured by formal records. Paying attention to biographical features leads to a richer understanding of cases, including the importance of pre- and post-judicial decision-making aspects.

Theater Missile Defense and Japanese Nuclear Weapons

Abstract

The development of a joint US-Japan theater missile defense system could have significant ramifications beyond the defense of Japan and of American forces in the region. A growing debate within Japan on its international security position, the spread of weapons of mass destruction, and questions about the role of the United States in the region conspire to create conditions for significant changes in Japan's conception of its security status and its long‐term political-military calculations. By upgrading Japan's strategic responsibilities, theater missile defense could inadvertently induce a reassessment of many of its national security policies, perhaps even the decision to forego nuclear weapons.     

英国剖腹产案件中的患者自主权研究

英国20世纪90年代一系列法院授权的剖腹产案件表显出了妇产领域根深蒂固的医学与司法上的家父主义倾向——对产妇欠缺意识能力的一般推定,对产妇非理性决定的蔑视以及对产妇及/或胎儿生命利益无以复加的推重——从而与患者自主权原则发生冲突。英国法院通过对意识能力概念过于严格的解释,来绕过胎儿非为法律上之人的法律壁垒,甚至公然对实证法的立场发起挑战。上诉法院虽然在两项判决中扼制住了这一情绪化的异动,它的意识能力理论却仍然为家父主义的回潮埋下了伏笔。故而,单有法律原则,还不足以为产妇自主权提供充分保护。只要诸如应该不惜一切代价地让产妇娩出一个健康的孩子、分娩中的产妇欠缺作出有效决定的意识能力这样一些流布甚广的观念不得澄清,产妇导向的法律政策与婴儿导向的产科训练之间的冲突不得协调,强化了产科医生话语权的医疗资源匮乏状态不得根本缓解,那么,曲解、回避法律原则强行手术的作法就断不会少。
