Writ Proceedings in Criminal Cases: A Comparative Legal Study of Kazakh Legislation 刑事诉讼程序:哈萨克斯坦立法的比较法律研究
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-02-13 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-n000112

Background: Over the past decade, the criminal process of Kazakhstan has undergone significant modernisation, during which many new institutions have been implemented, prescribed, and introduced into national legislation, one of which is writ proceedings in criminal cases.The institution of writ proceedings in the criminal process of Kazakhstan is a type of simplified proceedings that can be applied to criminal offences and criminal cases of minor gravity. One of the main characteristics of writ proceedings is the possibility of considering a criminal case in court without the participation of the accused.Methods: The article uses system-structural, formal-logical, comparative-legal, and dialectical research methods. Currently, law enforcement officers have a number of questions regarding the effectiveness of writs in criminal proceedings. In response, the authors of the article offer a constructive and critical approach to solving problems and reject the untenable, irrational, and radical methods presented by some Kazakhstani scientists and practitioners. Moreover, the analysis of successfully tested foreign legislation, in which institutions similar to writ production are actively used, has shown the effectiveness of their application. A comparative legal study of the legislation of Switzerland and Japan was also conducted.Results and Conclusions: In the article, the authors propose to consider a set of measures to improve the institution of writ proceedings in the criminal process of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
背景:在过去的十年里,哈萨克斯坦的刑事程序经历了重大的现代化,在此期间,许多新的机构被实施、规定并引入国家立法,其中之一就是刑事案件的令状诉讼。哈萨克斯坦刑事诉讼程序中的令状程序是一种简化程序,可适用于刑事犯罪和情节较轻的刑事案件。令状诉讼的主要特点之一是可以在没有被告参与的情况下在法庭上审理刑事案件。方法:运用系统结构、形式逻辑、比较法学、辩证法等研究方法。目前,执法人员对令状在刑事诉讼中的有效性有许多疑问。作为回应,文章作者提供了一种建设性和批判性的方法来解决问题,并拒绝了一些哈萨克斯坦科学家和从业者提出的站不住脚、不合理和激进的方法。此外,对成功测试的外国立法的分析表明,这些立法积极使用类似于令状制作的制度,这表明了其适用的有效性。还对瑞士和日本的立法进行了法律比较研究。结果和结论:在文章中,作者建议考虑一系列措施来改善哈萨克斯坦共和国刑事诉讼中的令状诉讼制度。

The implementation of consensual tenet in modern civil procedure: A European approach of court-related amicable dispute resolution procedures 现代民事诉讼中合意原则的实施:欧洲法院友好争端解决程序的做法
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-02-13 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-a000124
Background: This article explores the global changes in the orientation of civil procedure from competitive and adversarial towards more cooperative and consensual models. It aims to identify the reflection of mentioned tendencies in the valid legal regulation and practice of modern civil procedure. The consensual tenet in the civil process is analysed from the perspective of civil procedure goals, settlement principle, and case management as an effective tool for implementing the latter in practice. The authors explore the court-related amicable dispute resolution procedures to see the similarities and differences.Methods: Research commenced with a review of the existing scientific literature, a brief historical analysis, and a document analysis concerning changes in civil procedure orientation towards less competitive and more cooperation-grounded resolution of civil disputes. This research was followed by the comparative study of court-related amicable dispute resolution procedures with examples in particular legal jurisdictions like Austria, Lithuania, and Ukraine.Results and Conclusions: Vital changes in the perception of civil procedure regarding the widely accepted need to foster settlements in civil disputes, and an analysis of the most commonly used procedures as court conciliation and court mediation, were presented in this paper. The authors distinguish and analyse three court-related amicable dispute resolution procedures – conciliation, mediation, and the amicable conciliation process, emphasising their peculiarities and features. This research assists dispute resolution practitioners and researchers interested in better understanding how different court-related amicable dispute resolution procedures can be implemented in legal regulation and practice.
背景:本文探讨了全球民事诉讼取向的变化,从竞争和对抗模式向更多的合作和共识模式。旨在找出上述倾向在现代民事诉讼的有效法律规制和实践中的反映。本文从民事诉讼目标、和解原则以及作为实践中落实和解原则的有效工具的案件管理等方面对民事诉讼中的协商一致原则进行了分析。笔者对法院相关的友好纠纷解决程序进行了探讨,以了解其异同。方法:研究首先回顾了现有的科学文献,进行了简要的历史分析,并对民事诉讼程序的变化进行了文件分析,以减少竞争,更多地以合作为基础解决民事纠纷。这项研究之后,以奥地利、立陶宛和乌克兰等特定司法管辖区为例,对法院相关的友好争议解决程序进行了比较研究。结果和结论:在广泛接受的民事纠纷解决需要方面,民事诉讼程序观念发生了重大变化,并对法院调解和法院调解等最常用程序进行了分析。作者区分和分析了与法院有关的三种友好争议解决程序——调解、调解和友好调解程序,强调了它们的特点和特点。本研究有助于争议解决从业者和有兴趣的研究者更好地理解不同法院相关的友好争议解决程序如何在法律法规和实践中实施。

Ai v. Arbitrator: How can the Exclusion of Evidence Increase the Appointments of the Arbitrators? 艾诉仲裁员:证据排除如何增加仲裁员的任命?
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-27 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-a000114

Background: The present article was prompted by the growing influence of artificial intelligence in international arbitration. Artificial intelligence poses a challenge to the arbitration market since its advantages make it inevitable that in the future, it will take over some of the arbitrator’s fact-finding functions. Accordingly, the question arises as to how arbitrators can improve fact-finding and, consequently, maintain their demand in the arbitration market. This article analyses in detail one of the alternatives for such an improvement – a stricter application of the rule on the admissibility of written witness testimony.Objects: The article sets out the following objectives: (1) to uncover why artificial intelligence could be considered a better fact-finder than the arbitrator; (2) to identify how arbitrators apply the rule on the admissibility of written witness testimony in international arbitration proceedings; (3) to justify a different application of the latter admissibility rule that both improves the quality of fact-finding and, accordingly, allows arbitrators to keep pace with artificial intelligence. Methods: The article is grounded in the doctrinal legal research method since it will examine three legal sources: 1) the widely applicable IBA Rules on the Taking of Evidence in International Arbitration; 2) the arbitral tribunal’s awards; (3) legal scholarship. The research additionally uses an economic analysis of law as well as an interdisciplinary approach, which reveals certain psychological phenomena related to decision-making in arbitration.Results and Conclusions: The application of the rule of admissibility of written testimony of a witness in international arbitration leads to various negative consequences in the fact-finding process. For arbitrators to keep pace with artificial intelligence in the fact-finding process and increase their demand in the arbitration market, it is necessary to adopt a stricter approach to the latter admissibility rule. This approach leads to the exclusion rather than the evaluation of written witness testimony in international arbitration proceedings.
背景:人工智能在国际仲裁中的影响力越来越大,促使本文应运而生。人工智能对仲裁市场构成了挑战,因为它的优势使它不可避免地在未来取代仲裁员的一些事实调查功能。因此,出现了一个问题,即仲裁员如何能够改进事实调查,从而维持他们在仲裁市场上的需求。本文详细分析了这种改进的备选方案之一——严格适用书面证人证言的可采性规则。本文提出了以下目标:(1)揭示为什么人工智能可以被认为是比仲裁员更好的事实发现者;(2)确定仲裁员在国际仲裁程序中如何适用书面证人证言的可采性规则;(3)证明后一种可采理性规则的不同应用既提高了事实发现的质量,又相应地使仲裁员能够跟上人工智能的步伐。方法:本文以理论法学研究方法为基础,考察三个法律渊源:1)广泛适用的国际律师协会《国际仲裁取证规则》;(二)仲裁庭的裁决;(3)法学奖学金。该研究还使用了法律的经济分析以及跨学科的方法,揭示了与仲裁决策有关的某些心理现象。结果与结论:国际仲裁中证人书面证言可采信规则的适用,在事实认定过程中产生了各种负面影响。为了让仲裁员在事实认定过程中跟上人工智能的步伐,增加其在仲裁市场的需求,有必要对后者的可采性规则采取更严格的措施。这种做法导致国际仲裁程序中书面证人证词的排除,而不是评价。

Russia’s Attack on Ukraine; A Review of the International Criminal Court’s Capacity to Examine the Crime of Aggression 俄罗斯对乌克兰的攻击;审查国际刑事法院审查侵略罪的能力
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-27 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-a000107

Background: 24 February 2022 shall be remembered as a day on which the international law principle prohibiting the use of force was breached once again. This incident could come under scrutiny from several different standpoints. The present study looks at this occurrence via the lens of international criminal law and the occurrence of the crime of aggression and its examination by the International Criminal Court (ICC). This study aims to analyse whether the inclusion of the crime of aggression in the ICC Statute was symbolic and practically useless or whether it could move the international community one step closer to the end of impunity. To this end, the incidence of aggression as defined by the ICC Statute will be determined after an assessment of the justifications offered by Russia. Despite the prohibition entailed in Art. 15 bis (5) of the Statute, which has led the doctrine to rule in favour of the Court’s lack of jurisdiction, a solution to this impasse must be sought.Methods: This paper uses doctrinal methods, and its dominant theoretical perspective is positivism. It relies on an accurate description and analysis of Russia’s invasion as aggression and the capacity of the court to deal with it. The authors has attempted to collect as much pertinent data as possible, analyse the same, and review the applicable and relevant legal instruments and literature. Other publications on this subject matter accepted the inability of the ICC to prosecute the Russian aggression. The novelty of this paper is its search for the few loopholes in the rules and judgments of the ICC to investigate this crime in Ukraine. As a result, recommendations are made to stop Russia’s wrongdoing while also offering suggestions and answers. This would ultimately result in the protection of international law and the preservation of Ukrainian territory.Conclusions and Recommendations: The Russian claims, namely, anticipatory and collective self-defence, humanitarian intervention, and intervention by invitation, cannot face the crucible of international law norms, and, as such, the attack is a flagrant violation of the UN Charter. Thereafter, the exercise of jurisdiction seemed challenging, bearing in mind that Russia and Ukraine are not members of the IC, that the situation was not referred to the Security Council, and that the declaration issued by Ukraine accepting the Court’s jurisdiction entailed a number of limitations (being restricted to crimes against humanity and war crime). Nonetheless, a case could be made that the Court has some capacity to engage with the question of an act of aggression based on a study of the Court’s jurisprudence regarding such declarations and the Trial Chamber’s interpretation of the phrase ‘occurrence of crime in the territory of the State Party’, affirming a positive interpretation of Art. 15 bis (5) and confirming the possibility for the presence of Ukrainian secessionists in the decision to attack.According to the authors, the
背景:2022年2月24日应被铭记为禁止使用武力的国际法原则再次遭到违反的日子。这一事件可能会受到几个不同角度的审视。本研究从国际刑法的角度看待这一事件,以及侵略罪的发生及其国际刑事法院的审查。这项研究的目的是分析将侵略罪列入《国际刑事法院规约》是否具有象征意义,实际上毫无用处,或者它是否可以使国际社会离结束有罪不罚现象又近一步。为此,《国际刑事法院规约》规定的侵略发生率将在评估俄罗斯提出的理由后确定。尽管《规约》第15条之二第(5)款规定了禁止,导致该学说作出了有利于法院缺乏管辖权的裁决,但必须寻求解决这一僵局的办法。方法:本文采用教条主义方法,其主要理论视角是实证主义。它依赖于对俄罗斯侵略的准确描述和分析,以及法院处理侵略的能力。作者试图收集尽可能多的相关数据,对其进行分析,并审查适用的相关法律文书和文献。关于这一主题的其他出版物承认国际刑事法院无力起诉俄罗斯的侵略行为。本文的新颖之处在于寻找国际刑事法院调查乌克兰这一罪行的规则和判决中的少数漏洞。因此,提出了制止俄罗斯不法行为的建议,同时也提供了建议和答案。这将最终导致国际法的保护和乌克兰领土的保全。结论和建议:俄罗斯的主张,即预期和集体自卫、人道主义干预和邀请干预,不能面对国际法规范的严峻考验,因此,这次袭击公然违反了《联合国宪章》。此后,行使管辖权似乎具有挑战性,因为俄罗斯和乌克兰不是国际刑院成员,局势没有提交安全理事会,乌克兰发表的接受国际刑院管辖权的声明有一些限制(仅限于危害人类罪和战争罪)。尽管如此,根据对法院关于此类声明的判例的研究,以及审判分庭对“在缔约国境内发生犯罪”这一短语的解释,法院有一定的能力处理侵略行为问题,确认对第15条之二第(5)款的积极解释,并确认乌克兰分离主义分子可能参与攻击决定。提交人认为,以下建议值得注意:1)检察官有必要对《规约》的条款作出目的论解释,会员国大会庄严努力,修正和处理法院受理侵略罪职权范围内的管辖负担;2) 审查通过乌克兰和联合国之间的协议设立特设或混合法庭的可能性;3) 不承认顿涅茨克和卢甘斯克自治政府的一贯国家惯例;4) 确立俄罗斯的民事责任并由其支付适当的赔偿。

Concepts and Features of Administrative Contracts through the Prism of Regulatory Provisions and Judicial Practice in Ukraine 从乌克兰监管规定与司法实践看行政合同的概念与特征
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-24 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-n000118
Background: The article provides information on how the definition of an administrative contract was developed in Ukraine. Initially this concept was enshrined in the Code of Administrative Proceedings of Ukraine (hereinafter - the Code). Before the adoption of the Code, that is, until 2005, this phenomenon had been studied fragmentarily in the legal literature. We can name only a few authors who made attempts to investigate the issues of defining an administrative contract in order to identify its features and types comprehensively. Theoretical approaches to the definition and classification of administrative contracts are presented, and their main characteristics are outlined. It is noted that the subject structure of these contracts determines that in connection with the fulfilment of their conditions, each of the parties achieves the desired goal: the representative of the government strives for socially significant results, and the individual - for the satisfaction of private interests. The definition of an administrative contract fixed in the Code of Administrative Proceedings of Ukraine was analysed and it was concluded that it is suitable for the purposes of applying the procedural law. The article also examines the issue of whether compromise agreements belong to the category of administrative agreements.Methods: At the beginning of the study, theoretical approaches to defining administrative contracts and the identification of their features and classification are presented and differences in the positions of Ukrainian researchers studying the relevant issues are outlined. Subsequently, the legislative definition of the administrative contract is analysed and it is determined whether it is based on the theoretical developments presented above. The court decisions interpreting the normative provisions establishing the features and types of administrative contracts are summarised and we discovered whether Ukrainian judges turn to research sources in order to make such an interpretation and substantiate their positions. Consistent study of the theoretical developments, normative documents, and practical cases of applying the rules concerning administrative contracts allowed us to reach certain conclusions, which will be useful both to research scholars in the field and representatives of authorities who apply the specified rules.Results and Conclusions: Examples of court decisions are given, which consider the features of administrative contracts in the context of determining the judicial jurisdiction of disputes arising as a result of their conclusion, execution or termination. The position stated in these decisions is supported, according to which the contract cannot be considered administrative if it is concluded in accordance with the rules of civil or economic legislation. Disagreement was expressed with the statement that in the case of concluding an administrative contract, one of its parties, namely a subject of power, must neces
背景:这篇文章介绍了乌克兰如何制定行政合同的定义。最初,这一概念被载入《乌克兰行政诉讼法典》(以下简称《法典》)。在《法典》通过之前,即直到2005年,法律文献对这一现象进行了零散的研究。我们只能列举少数几位作者,他们试图研究行政合同的定义问题,以全面确定其特征和类型。介绍了行政合同定义和分类的理论方法,并概述了行政合同的主要特征。值得注意的是,这些合同的主体结构决定了,在履行其条件的过程中,各方都实现了预期目标:政府代表努力取得具有社会意义的成果,个人则努力满足私人利益。对《乌克兰行政诉讼法》中确定的行政合同的定义进行了分析,得出的结论是,该定义适合适用程序法。该条还审查了折衷协议是否属于行政协议类别的问题。方法:在研究之初,提出了界定行政合同及其特征和分类的理论方法,并概述了乌克兰研究人员在研究相关问题时的立场差异。随后,分析了行政合同的立法定义,并确定其是否基于上述理论发展。总结了法院对确立行政合同特征和类型的规范性条款的解释,我们发现乌克兰法官是否求助于研究来源来做出这样的解释并证实他们的立场。对行政合同规则适用的理论发展、规范性文件和实践案例的一致研究使我们能够得出某些结论,这对该领域的研究学者和适用特定规则的当局代表都很有用。结果和结论:列举了法院裁决的例子,这些裁决在确定因订立、执行或终止行政合同而产生的争议的司法管辖权时考虑到了行政合同的特点。这些决定中所述的立场得到了支持,根据这一立场,如果合同是根据民事或经济立法规则订立的,就不能被视为行政合同。有人表示不同意这样一种说法,即在订立行政合同的情况下,其中一方,即权力主体,必须履行与另一方有关的管理职能,并提出了支持这种不同意的论点。乌克兰“行政程序法”证实了界定行政合同、确定订立、执行和终止行政合同的理由和一般程序的必要性。

Initially this concept was enshrined in the Code of Administrative Proceedings of Ukraine (hereinafter - the Code). Before the adoption of the Code, that is, until 2005, this phenomenon had been studied fragmentarily in the legal literature. We can name only a few authors who made attempts to investigate the issues of defining an administrative contract in order to identify its features and types comprehensively. Theoretical approaches to the definition and classification of administrative contracts are presented, and their main characteristics are outlined. It is noted that the subject structure of these contracts determines that in connection with the fulfilment of their conditions, each of the parties achieves the desired goal: the representative of the government strives for socially significant results, and the individual - for the satisfaction of private interests. The definition of an administrative contract fixed in the Code of Administrative Proceedings of Ukraine was analysed and it was concluded that it is suitable for the purposes of applying the procedural law. The article also examines the issue of whether compromise agreements belong to the category of administrative agreements.\u0000Methods: At the beginning of the study, theoretical approaches to defining administrative contracts and the identification of their features and classification are presented and differences in the positions of Ukrainian researchers studying the relevant issues are outlined. Subsequently, the legislative definition of the administrative contract is analysed and it is determined whether it is based on the theoretical developments presented above. The court decisions interpreting the normative provisions establishing the features and types of administrative contracts are summarised and we discovered whether Ukrainian judges turn to research sources in order to make such an interpretation and substantiate their positions. Consistent study of the theoretical developments, normative documents, and practical cases of applying the rules concerning administrative contracts allowed us to reach certain conclusions, which will be useful both to research scholars in the field and representatives of authorities who apply the specified rules.\u0000Results and Conclusions: Examples of court decisions are given, which consider the features of administrative contracts in the context of determining the judicial jurisdiction of disputes arising as a result of their conclusion, execution or termination. The position stated in these decisions is supported, according to which the contract cannot be considered administrative if it is concluded in accordance with the rules of civil or economic legislation.

Background: The extraction and use of natural resources are reasons for environmental problems all over the world. The article examines one environmental right – the right to general water use, and its interrelation with the use of coastal protection strips (water fund lands), as well as specific problems of judicial practice in terms of protecting this right. There is a direct or indirect interrelation between utilised natural objects when confirming the environmental rights of citizens at the level of current national legislation, who are given the opportunity to use natural resources to meet their own needs and be in a harmonious state with the environment as much as possible. Such an interrelation is also reflected in cases of general water use, which is impossible without involving the use of water fund lands, namely coastal protective strips.Methods: With the help of scientific methods, the article uses and analyses international acts, data of international organizations, conclusions of scientists, and legal scientific literature. The legal regulation for using coastal protection strips as a prerequisite for exercising the right to general water use has been investigated within the framework of a systemic approach, as well as analysis and synthesis.Results and Conclusions: It is concluded that the lack of physical access to water bodies and non-compliance with the requirements regarding the proper water quality in water bodies, unfortunately, does not allow for the implementation of the right to general water use either properly or without harming the life and health of citizens.It is noted that in most instances, the result of court case consideration regarding protection of the right to general water use was the refusal to satisfy the claims due to the lack of reasoning and proper argumentation by the claimants, and to hold the decision against them. Claimants have to overcome a number of difficulties in order for their evidence to be recognised by the court as reliable and well-founded. The presence of certain deficiencies in the normative legal acts regarding the right to general water use plays a major role in this process.In order to solve the aforementioned problems and improve water legislation, appropriate proposals in the form of changes and additions to the general provisions of the Water Code of Ukraine have been argued and proposed.
背景:自然资源的开采和利用是造成世界范围内环境问题的原因。本文考察了一项环境权——一般水资源权,以及它与海岸保护地(水基金土地)使用的相互关系,以及在保护这一权利方面司法实践中的具体问题。在现行国家立法层面确认公民的环境权时,被利用的自然物之间存在着直接或间接的相互关系,公民有机会利用自然资源满足自己的需要,并尽可能与环境和谐相处。这种相互关系也反映在一般用水的情况中,如果不涉及使用水基金土地,即海岸保护带,就不可能做到这一点。方法:运用科学的方法,对国际判例、国际组织资料、科学家结论和法学文献进行分析。关于使用海岸保护带作为行使一般用水权利的先决条件的法律条例,已在系统办法的框架内进行了调查,并进行了分析和综合。结果和结论:得出的结论是,不幸的是,由于无法实际进入水体以及不遵守有关水体适当水质的要求,因此无法适当地或在不损害公民生命和健康的情况下落实一般用水的权利。人们注意到,在大多数情况下,法院审议关于保护一般用水权利的案件的结果是,由于索赔人缺乏推理和适当的辩论,拒绝满足索赔要求,并作出不利于他们的决定。索赔人必须克服一些困难,以便法院承认其证据是可靠和有充分根据的。关于一般用水权的规范性法律行为中存在的某些缺陷在这一进程中发挥了重要作用。为了解决上述问题和改进水立法,已经讨论和提出了以修改和补充乌克兰《水法》一般条款的形式提出的适当建议。

Means of Proof in Criminal Proceedings in the Slovak Republic – New Challenges 斯洛伐克共和国刑事诉讼中的证明手段——新的挑战
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-24 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-n000106

Background: Turbulent technological progress in the 21st century has caused the emergence of a number of new possibilities, especially technical in nature, and allowed for new means of proof as evidence. Legal regulation of criminal law in the Slovak Republic is responding to this trend, and progressive approaches to evidence which reflect the current level of development of science and technology are gradually being introduced. This article focuses on current challenges in the field of legislation regulating the issue of evidence in criminal proceedings.Methods: Legal comparison, content analysis of websites, functional analysis of legal acts, and analysis of the decisions courts were used to process the research data.Results and Conclusions: Current legislation on executing evidence in criminal proceedings in the Slovak Republic requires modification. There is especially the need to reflect on the current state of economic and dynamic technological progress in the 21st century. The recent list of evidence means in S. 119(3) of the Code of Criminal Procedure is not complete but does not automatically reject the use of other means of evidence. Discussions on how to proceed are currently taking place within the professional public. We believe that in the near future criminal law must respond adequately and enable the use of evidence obtained by new technologies such as satellites, GPS, GLONASS, dashcams, vehicle software, communication technologies, location tracking, etc. Of course, the final word will always be given to the court, which will assess whether such evidentiary information is admissible and effective, or what "weight" it will have in deciding on a particular criminal case.
背景:21世纪动荡的技术进步导致了许多新的可能性的出现,特别是技术性的可能性,并允许新的证明手段作为证据。斯洛伐克共和国的刑法法律法规正顺应这一趋势,并逐步采用反映当前科学技术发展水平的渐进证据方法。本文着重论述了目前在刑事诉讼证据问题立法领域面临的挑战。方法:采用法律比较法、网站内容分析法、法律行为功能分析法和法院判决分析法对研究数据进行处理。结果和结论:斯洛伐克共和国关于在刑事诉讼中执行证据的现行立法需要修改。特别需要反思21世纪经济和动态技术进步的现状。《刑事诉讼法》第119(3)条中最近列出的证据手段并不完整,但并没有自动拒绝使用其他证据手段。目前正在专业公众内部讨论如何进行。我们认为,在不久的将来,刑法必须做出充分回应,允许使用卫星、GPS、GLONASS、行车记录仪、车辆软件、通信技术、位置跟踪等新技术获得的证据。当然,最终决定权将始终交给法院,法院将评估此类证据信息是否可接受和有效,或者它在决定一个特定的刑事案件时会有多大的“分量”。

The Role of the United Nations as a Defender of Human Rights: A View from Albania 联合国作为人权捍卫者的作用:阿尔巴尼亚的观点
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-24 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-n000108

Background: Every millennium, decade, and century, as well as every passing day, humanity wakes up with a dream of a ‘new world’, a world without wars and bloodshed. Despite this thousand-year-old dream, wars and their devastating consequences hang menacingly over humanity’s head like the sword of Damocles. For this reason, wars have been and will remain a key focus of researchers and philosophers. By studying the numerous causes and consequences of war, the necessary measures to guarantee security and peace worldwide can be determined. Although human society strides towards prosperity, the likelihood of war has not diminished but continues to threaten, with unparalleled ferocity, the existence of human life, peace, and security. The numerous agreements and treaties, both bilateral and multilateral, between different states have only temporarily avoided the outbreak of conflicts and wars. Therefore, the concepts of peace, defence, and the prevention of war remain at the centre of research today. Research works in these fields are geared towards a universal idea: ‘the protection of basic human rights’. Methodology: This paper’s research methodology involves analysing data on the role of the UN as a defender of freedom and human rights. To achieve this, an extensive literature review was conducted. The review covers literature sources in both Albanian and foreign languages, written by well-known authors and provides a large amount of information and thoughts on the topic under consideration. The authors of some of the used works include Thomas Hobbes, Jean Jacques Rousseau, Immanuel Kant, John Locke, Brian Tamanaha, Alexis Tocqueville, and Servet Pëllumbi. The research was conducted step-by-step and argument-by-argument using the logic of reasoning and the analysis of ideas. The relevant research works relate to the UN’s role as a provider and guarantor of human rights and freedom. Results and Conclusions: In the opinion of the UN, the concept of democracy is closely related to the concept of protecting peace, freedom, and human rights. This is also the reason why the UN cannot remain indifferent in the face of cases of violation of freedoms and human rights under the pretext of respecting ‘state sovereignty’. The UN is today’s most important and powerful organisation for protecting human freedoms and rights, world peace, and international security. Based on the above discussion, a democratic society is nothing but the result of new relations between the power and freedom of an individual. ‘Human rights and freedoms’ do not constitute a mere bureaucratic formula but a request of the people for the development of the society in which they live. They resemble a ‘spiral’ that has only ascended since various theorists first presented their ideas on ‘human rights’. Infringement on human rights would simultaneously mark the infringement and the end of democracy itself.
背景:每一千年、每十年、每一个世纪以及每一天,人类都会怀着一个“新世界”的梦想醒来,一个没有战争和流血的世界。尽管有这个千年的梦想,但战争及其毁灭性的后果就像达摩克利斯之剑一样,威胁着人类的头顶。因此,战争一直是并将继续是研究人员和哲学家关注的焦点。通过研究战争的众多原因和后果,可以确定保障世界安全与和平的必要措施。虽然人类社会大步迈向繁荣,但战争的可能性并没有减少,而是继续以空前的凶残威胁着人类生命、和平与安全的存在。不同国家之间的许多双边和多边协定和条约只是暂时避免了冲突和战争的爆发。因此,和平、防御和防止战争的概念仍然是今天研究的中心。这些领域的研究工作都是面向一个普遍的理念:“保护基本人权”。方法:本文的研究方法包括分析有关联合国作为自由和人权捍卫者作用的数据。为此,我们进行了广泛的文献综述。这项审查包括阿尔巴尼亚语和外语的文献资料,由知名作家撰写,并就审议中的主题提供大量资料和想法。一些二手作品的作者包括托马斯·霍布斯、让·雅克·卢梭、伊曼努尔·康德、约翰·洛克、布莱恩·塔玛纳哈、亚历克西斯·托克维尔和Servet Pëllumbi。这项研究是一步一步、一个论点一个论点地进行的,使用的是推理逻辑和思想分析。相关的研究工作涉及联合国作为人权和自由的提供者和担保人的作用。结果和结论:在联合国看来,民主的概念与保护和平、自由和人权的概念密切相关。这也是联合国不能对以尊重“国家主权”为借口的侵犯自由和人权事件无动于衷的原因。联合国是当今保护人类自由和权利、世界和平和国际安全的最重要和最强大的组织。基于上述讨论,民主社会不过是个人权力与自由之间新关系的结果。“人权和自由”不仅仅是一个官僚主义的公式,而是人民对他们所生活的社会发展的要求。它们就像一个“螺旋”,只是在各种理论家首次提出他们关于“人权”的想法后才上升。侵犯人权将同时标志着对民主的侵犯和民主本身的终结。

Arbitrariness Prevention in the Context of Achieving the Efficiency of the Rules of Law 在实现法治效率的背景下预防任意性
IF 0.4 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-24 DOI: 10.33327/ajee-18-6.1-a000102
Background: Countries of Western political and legal tradition and former socialist countries of Central and Eastern Europe need further arbitrariness prevention in order to establish the rule of law both logically and taxonomically: idea (ideal) – prerequisite (guarantee) – achieving the efficiency of the rule of law. They also require practical application, which reflects the priorities of national interests based on freedom and respect to human dignity. The article contextualises arbitrariness prevention as an applied instrumental concept, essential for bringing the rule of law to the state, which allows the prevention of undue public authorities’ intervention in the process of their discretionary powers in particular spheres of human life. It also seeks the most appropriate approach to its use in combination with other standards and requirements in order to assess and summarise real daily practices of the rule of law existing in many modern societies and states. Functional application of arbitrariness prevention as a means of legal reasoning to access constitutional justice is substantiated. Concentration on the enhancement and implementation of the current Ukrainian mechanism to provide the monitoring of power use by the state and human immunity from arbitrary actions of the state authorities is gaining a real practical value. It is extremely relevant under the conditions of court control over the constitutionality of the state intervention in social and other types of human rights.Methods: Research on arbitrariness prevention in the international and national political and legal context is based on the definition of the rule of law derived from the provisions of the dialectic correlation of natural law and the positivist legal approach. The potential of the latter approach for the provision of sufficient restriction of the power is also very important. Historic, hermeneutic, systemic, structural, axiological, and instrumental approaches promote arbitrariness prevention as a particular specific idea (ideal), which consolidate the advance of social and legal thought as well as the practices of public authority functioning. They also contribute to its superposition over state arbitrariness as a permanently active and clear requirement, instruction and conceptual component, principal rule (sub-rule), and commonly shaped standard, as well as one of non-disputable prerequisites and guarantees of a counter to malpractice of discretionary powers. In this article the theoretical and comparative generalisation of the traditions of the perception of the rule of law proves and confirms, on the ground of therelevant constitutional provisions, and specific court decisions resulted in quite clear reasoning in favour of their implementation in the real legal order and provided a person the possibility of exercising their guaranteed right to appeal to the court against the actions of the state within the scope of the activities of the Constitutional Court
背景:西方政法传统国家和前中东欧社会主义国家需要进一步防止任意性,以便在逻辑上和分类上建立法治:理念(理想)-前提(保障)-实现法治的效率。它们还需要实际应用,这反映了以自由和尊重人的尊严为基础的国家利益的优先事项。这篇文章将防止任意性作为一种实用的工具概念置于背景中,这对于将法治引入国家至关重要,它允许防止公共当局在特定的人类生活领域对其自由裁量权的过程进行不当干预。它还寻求将其与其他标准和要求结合使用的最适当方法,以评估和总结许多现代社会和国家中存在的法治的实际日常实践。论证了预防任意性作为一种法律推理手段在获得宪法正义中的功能应用。集中精力加强和执行乌克兰目前的机制,以监测国家的电力使用情况和使人免于国家当局的任意行动,正在获得真正的实用价值。在法院控制国家干预社会和其他类型人权的合宪性的条件下,这是极其相关的。方法:基于自然法辩证关联的规定和实证主义法学方法对法治的定义,研究国际和国内政法语境下的预防任意性问题。后一种方法在提供对权力的充分限制方面的潜力也非常重要。历史的、解释学的、系统的、结构的、价值论的和工具性的方法促进了武断预防作为一种特定的理念(理想),它巩固了社会和法律思想的进步以及公共权力运作的实践。它们还有助于将其叠加在国家任意性之上,作为一种永久有效和明确的要求、指示和概念组成部分、主要规则(子规则)和共同形成的标准,以及对抗自由裁量权滥用的不可争议的先决条件和保证之一。在本文中,对传统法治观念的理论和比较概括,在相关宪法条款的基础上,证明并确认:具体的法院判决产生了相当明确的理由,有利于在实际的法律秩序中执行这些判决,并使个人有可能行使其受保障的权利,在乌克兰宪法法院的活动范围内对国家的行动向法院提出上诉。结果与结论:介绍了预防随意性的内容和意义。它们反映了法治的价值规范潜力,并成为发展一整套国家宪法和法律结构、现行立法、机制和程序以客观评价法治的基础。该条款审查了乌克兰宪法法院在引入确保对国家权力使用的控制和保护人民免受当局任意行动的机制以及其服从于实现法治有效性方面的法律立场。
