Predatory journals and meetings in forensic sciences: what every expert needs to know about this "parasitic" publishing model

The emergence of the Internet has transformed all areas of society. This includes the universe of scientific publications, with several publishers now exclusively focusing on the electronic format and open access model while expanding to a megajournal scope. In this context, the pandemic of predatory open access journals (POAJs) and meetings are of grave concern to the academic and research community. This new shift within academia produces a variety of new victims; namely, the authors themselves. In turn, scientific knowledge is often discredited, with the public placing less trust in science. Now more than ever, performing research with integrity and selecting a journal in which to publish requires close attention and expertise. The "predatory movement" has developed increasingly sophisticated techniques for misleading people into believing what seem to be credible professional layouts and legitimate invitations. Initiatives such as the Jeffrey Beall's list, the Cabell's Scholarly Analytics and Think.Check.Submit offer some guidance to uncover the "parasitic" intervention of predatory journals and meetings, but specific education in this field is sorely needed. This work aims to review the main characteristics of predatory journals and meetings and to analyze this topic in the context of forensic and legal medicine research.

Edwards v Chesterfield Royal Hospital – Parliamentary Intention and Damages Caused by Maladministration of a Contractual Dismissal Procedure

In Edwards v Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS Foundation Trust [2011] UKSC 58 [2012] 2 W.L.R. 55 the Supreme Court addressed the following question: is an employee, who can establish that (a) if a contractual disciplinary process had been correctly administered he would have been exonerated, and (b) thereafter employed until retirement, able to sue for loss of the earnings that he would have acquired until retirement? Three members of the Supreme Court held that such a remedy was not reconcilable with the enactment, originally in the Industrial Relations Act 1971, of a statutory unfair dismissals protection regime. It was Parliament's intention that an employee should not be able to outmanoeuvre the statute's compensation limitation rules by deploying a superior common law remedy. This note considers that reading of Parliament's intention.     

论防御式股份回购的自由与管制之度——以美国法规制为中心展开

在美国,防御式股份回购是目标公司董事会采用的抵制敌意收购的惯用措施之一,目标公司采用防御式股份回购的方法有公开市场回购、自我要约收购以及绿邮回购。本文通过对此三种防御式股份回购的判例法与成文法之评析,指出美国对防御式股份回购的法律规制过于自由,应予以适当管制。反观我国立法,应对目标公司管理者的防御式股份回购进行限制,但不能一概禁止。以法律有效规范为前提,可允许目标公司采取自我要约收购方式回购股份,而应禁止采用防御式公开市场回购和绿邮回购。

论捕后羁押必要性审查——以新《刑事诉讼法》第93条为出发点

新《刑事诉讼法》增加的捕后羁押必要性审查制度，是人权保障理念在刑事诉讼领域的落实和展开，是对权力制衡理论和比例原则的顺应，将有助于防止超期羁押和随意羁押。但新《刑事诉讼法》对捕后羁押必要性审查机制的规定过于原则，需要从审查主体、程序的启动、运行以及救济等方面进行细化。为了使捕后羁押必要性审查机制有效运作，需要采取一些配套措施，如加强侦查取证能力以切断对羁押的依赖，加强部门合作拓展必要性判断的信息来源，探索羁押必要性判断方法的客观量化和判断主体的专业化等。
