A decade on from the NCH Report (1992): Adolescent sexual aggression policy,practice and service delivery across the UK and Republic of Ireland

Abstract

This paper considers the issues involved in the use of manuals to guide the treatment of sexual offenders. I identify problems in the use of manuals, particularly their failure to encourage satisfactorily the implementation of therapeutic skills, the restrictions they place upon the therapist's ability to address the responsivity principle, the limits to which manuals can accommodate changes as a result of new evidence and the suppression of innovation. I offer suggestions for an alternative set of strategies to ensure the integrity of treatment delivery while at the same time overcoming the problems associated with manualization.     

A Review of “Setting the Standard: Certification,Governance, and the Forest Stewardship Council”

Abstract

As the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) establishes itself as one of the premier regimes in international law, member states are increasingly availing themselves of the significant dispute settlement provisions found in Part XV. The International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) is beginning to take its place in the pantheon of major international tribunals. Although its jurisprudence thus far has largely consisted of applications for prompt release of vessels, these cases have arisen from disagreements over fishery practices and the enforcement of fishery laws by coastal states. The ITLOS is developing into a transparent, consistent and speedy forum to adjudicate marine disputes arising from UNCLOS. While the overall scope and reach of Part XV may be uncertain at the present time, especially vis‐à‐vis other dispute settlement institutions, the early activity under Part XV is promising. Those concerned with marine wildlife issues should be encouraged by the potential of Part XV, the ITLOS in particular, to serve as an effective regime in the realm of marine wildlife dispute settlement.     

贸仲委上海、华南两分会与贸仲委之争的法律问题研究(二)——贸仲委修订实施其2012规则合法正当有效

制定修订贸仲委仲裁规则的主体,无论仲裁法实施前依中央人民政府政务院1954年《决定》和国务院1988年《批复》还是实施后依其第73条规定均是中国贸促会(中国国际商会);贸仲委委员会议不是修订规则主体只是履行审议通过规则修订草案的程序;贸仲委历届章程均未规定审议通过规则修订草案的具体方式或应进行决议;贸仲委2012规则(简称12规则)修订草案无论以何方式经委员会议审议通过后提交中国贸促会(中国国际商会)批准实施均符合法律及章程规定,不存在规则修订草案审议通过程序违法;12规则取消"大条款"〔1〕择地仲裁规定真正实现了当事人意思自治,不存在实体违法;贸仲委上海、华南两分会拒不适用12规则,违反当事人签署两分会仲裁条款真实意愿,无权受理所涉案件。     

EU Democracy Assistance in the Mediterranean: What Relationship with the Arab Uprisings?

This article analyzes the European Union (EU) policy for democracy assistance toward the Southern Mediterranean countries and tracks changes in the last decade, with a special emphasis on the most recent period. It shows that the EU policy, which goes under the acronym of EIDHR, has evolved, but predominantly in response to internal dynamics rather than to developments in Arab countries. The EU has increasingly provided assistance to local actors on the ground in non-member countries and has differentiated its action in authoritarian countries from countries in transition. When it comes to implementing its own policy, however, the EU is less able to promote democracy than human rights, and most of the funds go to support projects centered on relatively uncontroversial rights such as women's and children's.
