ABSTRACT From Westminster-style parliamentarianism to semi-presidentialism, Sri Lanka has experimented with different structures of constitutional governance in the post-independence era. However, the Sri Lankan parliament became a peripheral player within the constitutional structure with semi-presidentialism introduced by the 1978 Constitution. While the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution attempted to establish multiple constitutional centres of accountability, the position of the parliament remained peripheral. The centrality of parliament within the constitutional structure is a crucial condition for a robust model of parliamentarianism with effective checks and balances. Based on the example of German constrained parliamentarianism, I argue for the importance of further reform towards transforming the parliament from a peripheral player to the central player in the constitutional structure. Reforms should aim to regulate the composition of the parliament by constitutionalizing parties, to strengthen the institutional capacities of the parliament and to constitutionally assert the autonomy of the parliament vis-à-vis the president.
从威斯敏斯特式的议会制到半总统制,斯里兰卡在后独立时代尝试了不同的宪政结构。然而,随着1978年宪法引入的半总统制,斯里兰卡议会成为宪法结构中的外围角色。虽然宪法第十九修正案试图建立多个宪法责任中心,但议会的地位仍然处于次要地位。议会在宪法结构中的中心地位是议会主义具有有效制衡的健全模式的关键条件。基于德国受约束的议会制的例子,我论证了进一步改革的重要性,将议会从宪法结构的边缘角色转变为核心角色。改革的目标应该是通过使各政党符合宪法来规范议会的组成,加强议会的机构能力,并在宪法上维护议会对-à-vis总统的自主权。

Precedent, stare decisis and the Larger Bench Rule: Judicial Indiscipline at the Indian Supreme Court 先例、判例和大法官规则:印度最高法院的司法无纪律

ABSTRACT As a self-imposed norm of judicial discipline, the Supreme Court has held that a judgement may be overruled only by a bench larger than the bench which delivered the judgement. Being a facet of the doctrine of stare decisis, the “Larger Bench Rule” achieves certainty, equality, and efficiency in adjudication, and secures public legitimacy for the Court. The Rule also accords equal weight to the wisdom of every judge. But the Court has breached the Rule in some key cases. We trace seven instances where smaller or coordinate benches explicitly or impliedly overruled binding judgements. The Court did this, we show, by ignoring precedent, shoddily “distinguishing” precedent, expressly disagreeing with precedent on merits, or unfairly declaring the precedent invalid for itself contravening the Larger Bench Rule. Finally, we suggest – preliminarily – some measures to ensure adherence to the Rule in future.
作为一项自我强加的司法纪律规范,最高法院规定,一项判决只能由比作出判决的法官人数更多的法官来推翻。作为先例原则的一个方面,“大法官席规则”实现了审判的确定性、平等和效率,并确保了法院的公共合法性。该规则还同等重视每一位法官的智慧。但法院在一些关键案件中违反了该规则。我们追踪了七个例子,其中较小或协调的长凳明确或隐含地推翻了有约束力的判决。我们认为,最高法院这样做的方式是无视先例,草率地“区分”先例,明确不同意先例的案情,或不公平地宣布先例本身无效,这违反了大法院规则。最后,我们初步提出了一些确保今后遵守《规则》的措施。

Divine labours, devalued work: the continuing saga of India’s surrogacy regulation 神圣的劳动,贬值的工作:印度代孕监管的持续传奇

ABSTRACT This article offers a feminist critique of the Surrogacy (Regulation) Bill, 2019. Fifteen years since the first proposed regulation of assisted reproductive technologies and surrogacy, the 2019 Bill leaves much to be desired. It reflects a limited understanding of the complexities of surrogacy, is discriminatory in its approach, is plagued by lack of clarity, is unrealistic and most importantly, does not include adequate safeguards for the surrogate. Women’s reproductive labour in performing surrogacy is valorized but not compensated. Even though the Bill may well accept some recommendations of the Rajya Sabha select Committee, its failure to address issues that we highlight will mean that if passed, it will be challenged in the courts on constitutional grounds. This will generate uncertainty for years, for many infertile couples and individuals who look to the law for streamlined regulation, defeating its main purpose in facilitating a novel mode of reproduction.
本文对《2019年代孕(监管)法案》进行了女权主义批判。自第一次提出对辅助生殖技术和代孕的监管以来,已经过去了15年,2019年的法案还有很多需要改进的地方。它反映了对代孕复杂性的有限理解,在方法上是歧视性的,受到缺乏清晰度的困扰,是不现实的,最重要的是,没有为代孕者提供足够的保障。妇女在代孕过程中的生殖劳动是有价值的,但没有得到补偿。尽管该法案可能会接受联邦院特别委员会的一些建议,但它未能解决我们强调的问题,这意味着如果通过,它将在宪法基础上受到法院的挑战。对于许多不孕夫妇和个人来说,这将在未来几年产生不确定性,他们希望通过法律来简化监管,这违背了法律促进一种新型生殖模式的主要目的。

Dimensions and dilemmas: public participation in constitution-making in post-war settings 维度与困境:战后宪法制定中的公众参与

ABSTRACT Public participation is considered an essential ingredient in contemporary constitution-making processes. In this article, I am concerned with the implications of these assumptions in states that can be categorized, broadly, as post-war. Where an armed conflict has ceased, but a political solution to the conflict has not been reached, a state may be categorized as “post-war”. Focusing on Nepal, Sri Lanka, and to some extent Myanmar, I ask the following questions: How should the emerging norm of public participation in constitution-making be understood and applied? What approaches are most useful in dealing with the dimensions of public participation in constitution-making in states that are post-war? I argue that six dilemmas arise in public participation in constitution-making. They are 1) conflict resolution and state formation, 2) democratization, 3) transparency and accountability, 4) the transnational dynamic, 5) constitutional literacy, and 6) constraints of resources and time.
公众参与被认为是当代制宪过程中必不可少的组成部分。在这篇文章中,我关注的是这些假设对战后国家的影响。如果武装冲突已经停止,但尚未达成冲突的政治解决办法,则可以将其归类为“战后”国家。以尼泊尔、斯里兰卡和缅甸为例,我提出以下问题:公众参与制宪的新规范应该如何理解和应用?在处理战后国家中公众参与制宪的维度时,什么方法最有用?笔者认为,公众参与制宪存在六大困境。它们是:1)冲突解决和国家形成;2)民主化;3)透明度和问责制;4)跨国动态;5)宪法素养;6)资源和时间的限制。

Arya Samaj marriages in Indian courts Arya Samaj在印度法庭上结婚

ABSTRACT Contrary to what one may expect, some religious bodies such as Arya Samaj, are prominent in providing marriage services to Indian couples who marry in defiance of familial and social expectations. It is notable that with an increasing number of couples approaching courts to seek state protection after solemnizing their marriages via Arya Samaj, the latter has come under the judicial scanner. This has brought many issues related to such services to the fore. A detailed discussion of one of such cases has been undertaken and contextualized with reference to Arya Marriage Validation Act 1937 and Hindu Marriage Act 1955 to show how these services exist in a dynamic, accommodative, and conflicting relationship with the legal system. This has implications for those who use Arya Samaj services, in our case, couples in non-conformist marriages, as well as for our understanding and evaluation of the Indian variant of legal pluralism.
与人们所期望的相反,一些宗教团体,如Arya Samaj,在为无视家庭和社会期望而结婚的印度夫妇提供婚姻服务方面表现突出。值得注意的是,随着越来越多的夫妇在通过Arya Samaj举行婚礼后向法院寻求国家保护,后者已经受到司法审查。这使与这些服务有关的许多问题凸显出来。对其中一个这样的案例进行了详细的讨论,并参照1937年《Arya婚姻确认法》和1955年《印度教婚姻法》进行了背景分析,以显示这些服务如何在与法律体系的动态、包容和冲突关系中存在。这对那些使用Arya Samaj服务的人,在我们的案例中,是非传统婚姻的夫妇,以及我们对印度法律多元主义变体的理解和评估都有影响。

Revitalizing adoption laws 振兴收养法
Pub Date : 2020-09-06 DOI: 10.1080/24730580.2020.1816705
S. Sriraam
ABSTRACT This paper is an analysis on the history of adoption in India and the machinery in place now. It also attempts to understand how far the adoption laws in India are in consonance with her international obligations. In particular, the paper will focus on how the LGBTQ+ community is unfairly affected by the system in place. It will also highlight the need to recognize the interests of rescuers of abandoned infants in case of adoption. The author will shed light on the importance of legalizing second parent adoption and permitting direct placement adoption. The paper proposes that necessary amendments must be carried out in the 2015 Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection) Act [JJ Act], thereby making the adoption laws in India more comprehensive and ensuring that the concerns are addressed. The study is limited to in-country adoptions alone.
本文分析了印度收养的历史和现在的机制。它还试图了解印度的收养法在多大程度上符合她的国际义务。本文将特别关注LGBTQ+社区如何受到现行制度的不公平影响。它还将强调,在被收养的情况下,必须认识到被遗弃婴儿的救助者的利益。作者将阐明第二父母收养合法化和允许直接安置收养的重要性。本文建议,必须对2015年的《少年司法(照顾与保护)法案》(JJ Act)进行必要的修订,从而使印度的收养法更加全面,并确保这些问题得到解决。这项研究仅局限于国内收养。

ABSTRACT The past 10 years witnessed rapid development in the jurisprudential framework of antitrust policy in India. The Competition Commission of India’s sector-agnostic approach in busting anti-competitive conduct has allowed it to drive pro-competitive reforms in various sectors. In this context, the Competition Commission of India has taken a keen interest in addressing the issue of cartelization. This article delineates the manner in which the Competition Commission of India identifies and imposes liability on cartels, with the aim of increasing regulatory compliance and promoting robust competitive markets. This involves a review of the evolving standards of proof adopted by the Competition Commission of India, and jurisprudential concepts introduced to address the peculiarities of Indian markets. The article also seeks to provide insight into the procedural hurdles typically encountered during cartel investigations. Finally, it addresses the constant conflict the Competition Commission of India faces with other fairly established sectoral regulators.
过去十年见证了印度反垄断政策法律框架的快速发展。印度竞争委员会(Competition Commission of India)在打击反竞争行为方面的部门不可知方法,使其能够在各个部门推动有利于竞争的改革。在这方面,印度竞争委员会对处理卡特尔化问题十分感兴趣。本文描述了印度竞争委员会(Competition Commission of India)确定卡特尔并对其施加责任的方式,目的是提高监管合规性,促进强劲的竞争市场。这涉及审查印度竞争委员会采用的不断演变的证明标准,以及为解决印度市场的特点而引入的法理概念。这篇文章还试图对卡特尔调查中通常遇到的程序障碍提供见解。最后,它解决了印度竞争委员会(Competition Commission of India)与其他相当成熟的行业监管机构之间持续存在的冲突。

ABSTRACT This paper explores the competition implications of trade associations in modern India. The paper posits that like competition regimes elsewhere in the world, the Competition Commission of India (“CCI”) may distinguish between anti-competitive practices of trade associations and practices that facilitate and support competition in the country, including the use of the platform of a trade association for certain types of information exchange among competitors. The paper recommends that the CCI adopt guidelines to obviate the “chilling” effect on competition for both entities and individuals.
本文探讨了现代印度行业协会对竞争的影响。该论文认为,与世界其他地方的竞争制度一样,印度竞争委员会(“CCI”)可能会区分行业协会的反竞争做法和促进和支持该国竞争的做法,包括使用行业协会的平台在竞争对手之间进行某些类型的信息交换。该报告建议CCI采用指导方针,以避免对实体和个人的竞争产生“寒蝉效应”。

The Indian competition law experience– its history and its (digital) future 印度竞争法的经验——它的历史和它的(数字)未来

ABSTRACT Competition law is an economics-based law designed to regulate anti-competitive conduct of market participants. This article examines the economic circumstances in which India acquired its modern competition law and evaluates the sufficiency of this law for recent developments in India’s digital economy. Rapid technological developments and the emergence of virtual markets, networks and platforms in India suggest that the Indian competition authority, the Competition Commission of India (“CCI”), may need to adopt a more nuanced approach in identifying relevant markets than it has hitherto applied in respect of more traditional sectors. The rapid evolution of the digital economy also raises the basic issue of whether an economics-based law should have a definite structure or allow for flexibility of incorporating market dynamics. The article also reviews and analyses the recommendations made by the Competition Law Review Committee in this regard and the adequacy of the amendments proposed in the draft Competition Bill 2020.
竞争法是一种以经济学为基础,旨在规范市场参与者反竞争行为的法律。本文考察了印度获得现代竞争法的经济环境,并评估了该法律对印度数字经济近期发展的充分性。印度快速的技术发展和虚拟市场、网络和平台的出现表明,印度竞争管理机构印度竞争委员会(“CCI”)在确定相关市场时,可能需要采取比迄今为止在更传统的行业中采用的更细致入微的方法。数字经济的快速发展也提出了一个基本问题,即以经济为基础的法律是应该有一个明确的结构,还是应该允许结合市场动态的灵活性。本文还回顾和分析了竞争法审查委员会在这方面提出的建议以及《2020年竞争法案》草案中提出的修正案的充分性。

The article also reviews and analyses the recommendations made by the Competition Law Review Committee in this regard and the adequacy of the amendments proposed in the draft Competition Bill 2020.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77444791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT The popularity of multi-sided online platforms has risen exponentially in the last decade, and so have the number of competition cases involving such platforms. This paper examines how the Competition Commission of India (CCI) defines the relevant market in its landmark Google decision. It then traces how CCI’s analysis of market definitions has evolved over the time by comparing the Google decision with other cases concerning online platforms that have been decided before and after it. To trace this evolution, it also explores the relevant reports, studies, and proposed amendments to the existing legal framework in India and assesses how these may impact the future analysis of market definitions.
近十年来,多边网络平台的普及程度呈指数级增长,涉及此类平台的竞争案件数量也呈指数级增长。本文考察了印度竞争委员会(CCI)如何在其具有里程碑意义的b谷歌决定中定义相关市场。然后,通过将b谷歌案的判决与此前和之后做出的其他涉及在线平台的判决进行比较,追溯CCI对市场定义的分析是如何随着时间的推移而演变的。为了追踪这一演变,它还探讨了印度现有法律框架的相关报告、研究和拟议修正案,并评估了这些可能如何影响未来对市场定义的分析。
