A Divided Family: Race,the Commonwealth and Brexit

Abstract

The Commonwealth has long been conceptualised as ‘a family of nations’ in a reflection of the size, diversity and shared values of the organisation. As the discussion in post-Brexit Britain engages with questions of race and immigration, it is important to consider the role the Commonwealth played in the referendum campaigns. The combination of the Leave campaign’s promises to reinforce ties with ‘kith and kin’ in Commonwealth countries with the xenophobia that defined the campaign prompts the question what exactly does the Commonwealth mean in modern Britain? The EU referendum revealed two Commonwealths—one reflecting the backgrounds of Britain’s ethnic minorities, and one centred on the three majority white nations of Australia, New Zealand and Canada. This article will offer an investigation of these conflicting visions of the Commonwealth in the referendum, as well as the voting motivations of Commonwealth nationals and British citizens of Commonwealth descent.     

A Simple and Efficient Method of Extracting DNA from Aged Bones and Teeth

DNA is often difficult to extract from old bones and teeth due to low levels of DNA and high levels of degradation. This study established a simple yet efficient method for extracting DNA from 20 aged bones and teeth (approximately 60 years old). Based on the concentration and STR typing results, the new method of DNA extraction (OM) developed in this study was compared with the PrepFiler? BTA Forensic DNA Extraction Kit (BM). The total amount of DNA extracted using the OM method was not significantly different from that extracted using the commercial kit (p > 0.05). However, the number of STR loci detected was significantly higher in the samples processed using the OM method than using the BM method (p < 0.05). This study aimed to establish a DNA extraction method for aged bones and teeth to improve the detection rate of STR typing and reduce costs compared to the BM technique.     

诉讼标的的识别标准

传统旧实体法学说在给付之诉诉讼标的的识别问题上存在理论缺陷,之后出现的各种识别学说也无法自圆其说。因此,有必要对各种流派学说进行述评与反思,找到较佳的解决路径。决不能因为旧实体法学说存在一点理论缺陷就抛弃其整个理论,而应通过修正民事实体法来解决来源于民事实体法上的请求权竞合而导致的旧实体法学说的缺陷。     

刑法溯及力探析

保护公民自由、保障人权一直是刑法溯及力发展的指导思想,对我国的刑事立法也有重要的意义。因此,从旧兼从轻原则中从轻的法律比较范围除了应当包括行为时法、裁判时法之外,还应包括"中间时法;"刑法溯及既往的效力范围除了应当包括发生在新法生效前的未经审判或判决尚未生效的行为之外,还应包括判决已经生效但新法作了非罪化处理的行为。     

古亚述民事习惯法初探

约公元前1900年左右至前16世纪,美索不达米亚平原北部生活着古闪米特族的一支--古亚述人,他们虽不如古巴比伦人那么著名,但仍然以自己独特的方式传承了人类古老文明,在古代民法的起源上有着自己独特的贡献.本文分为三个部分,对古亚述商人的经济交往关系、民事规则与商业习俗作了比较系统的梳理,旨在重拾对这一民族的文明再认识,揭示人类民法产生与发展的一般规律.     

贵州少数民族人口结构变动对养老保险的影响

社会养老保障不仅关系到保险人和投保人的利益 ,而且关系到职工因年老退休所造成的经济损失能否得到及时的、足额的补偿。在我国还关系到经济制度改革的成败 ,因此 ,加强社会养老保险的研究 ,进一步健全和完善社会养老保险制度 ,具有十分重要的社会意义。     

18岁年龄推断的法医影像学研究进展

18周岁年龄节点在司法审判、移民、竞技体育中均有重大意义,18岁年龄推断是法医实践工作的难点之一,也是法医基础研究应面对的问题。目前常用的指标包括锁骨胸骨端、髂嵴、第三磨牙、四肢骨近关节端。18岁年龄推断的常用影像方法多样,包括平片、CT、超声、MRI,薄层CT是目前主要研究手段,但逐渐向无辐射的MRI发展。统计方法多采用一般描述性分析,但其统计效能低,因此逐渐有作者提出应用ROC、数据挖掘技术等高功效的统计方法推断年龄。既往研究显示上述指标的完全发育成熟在18岁年龄推断中有一定意义,可用于18岁年龄推断,多指标的联合应用及高功效的统计方法将会提高18岁年龄推断的准确性。     

Ageing in forensic psychiatric secure settings: the views of members of staff

Background: Although the prevalence of older patients in forensic psychiatric services is increasing, research around service provision for this population is very limited. We aimed to gather the views of members of staff on how well secure services are meeting the challenges of an ageing population.

Methods: Three focus groups were carried out with 13 members of staff working with older patients in secure services. A topic guide, based on the research team’s previous research, guided the sessions. The focus groups were audio-recorded, transcribed and analysed through thematic analysis.

Results: Two themes were identified: (1) Identifying patients’ needs, which focused on how promptly any emerging issues in the older patients are identified and reported; (2) addressing patients’ needs, which focused on how the unique needs of the older patients are addressed, once established.

Conclusions: There are unique age-related issues that may have an impact on the older patients’ opportunities for recovery, including a lack of specialist training for members of staff, prolonged stay in secure care and a limited number of age-relevant activities. Far from optimal, provision requires improvement through the active involvement of the primary stakeholders.
