Abstract This article tells the history of the Palestine Law Reports series (PLR), introduced in 1934 to Mandate-ruled Palestine. It unearths discussions that preceded the PLR’s publications following a campaign for authorized law reporting launched by lawyers in Palestine in the 1920s to 1930s. Canvassing a broad institutional context for the emergence of the PLR, we argue that in launching the campaign local lawyers sought not only to render Palestinian common law more predictable and amenable to professional handling, but also to approximate the role granted in the metropole and the common law tradition to practicing lawyers in propagating binding precedents. Local lawyers wanted to have a slice of the action of creating a local common law and in designing the Palestinian legal landscape. Unsurprisingly, they were met with the opposition of Chief Justice McDonnell, who sought to control the PLR enterprise, resisting non-judicial involvement in its editing and production. Finally, the article argues that, regardless of McDonnell’s motivations, from an institutional point of view, his achievement in laying down a foundational institution for the generation of a local common law is momentous. He therefore emerges from our analysis as one of the chief architects of the common law in Palestine, and—to this day—in Israel.
摘要:本文讲述了1934年《巴勒斯坦法律报告》系列(PLR)的历史,该系列报道介绍了托管统治下的巴勒斯坦。它揭示了在PLR出版之前的讨论,随后是20世纪20年代到30年代巴勒斯坦律师发起的授权法律报告运动。在为PLR的出现进行广泛的制度背景考察时,我们认为,在发起这项运动时,当地律师不仅寻求使巴勒斯坦普通法更可预测和更适合专业处理,而且还寻求在大都市和普通法传统中,执业律师在宣传具有约束力的先例方面所扮演的角色。当地律师希望在制定当地习惯法和设计巴勒斯坦法律格局的过程中分一杯羹。不出所料,他们遭到了首席大法官麦克唐奈的反对。麦克唐奈试图控制PLR企业,拒绝非司法介入其编辑和制作。最后,本文认为,无论麦克唐纳的动机如何,从制度的角度来看,他在为地方普通法的产生奠定基础制度方面的成就是重大的。因此,他从我们的分析中脱颖而出,成为巴勒斯坦普通法的主要缔造者之一,直到今天,在以色列也是如此。

Limping Marriages: Race, Class, and the Rise of Domicile-Based Divorce Jurisdiction in the British Empire 软弱的婚姻:种族、阶级和大英帝国以住所为基础的离婚管辖权的兴起

In this article, I trace the development of domicile as the basis of divorce jurisdiction in English private international law. The maintenance of English domicile became closely related to the retention of ‘white’ identity, with white British subjects who became domiciled in non-white colonies such as India being relegated to racially ambiguous statuses. The domicile rule limited the remedy of divorce to those who were financially well-off and able to travel to the courts of the metropole since English courts refused to recognize divorce decrees granted by British Indian courts based on residence. As a result, innumerable British subjects who obtained a divorce in India remained married in Britain, i.e. were stuck in so-called ‘limping marriages’. To remedy this situation, a separate divorce regime was enacted for British subjects residing in India but domiciled in England and Scotland, but it replicated the class barriers of the original domicile rule. Law, therefore, played a significant role in the creation of the mutually constitutive but unstable categories of class and race.
在这篇文章中,我追溯了在英国国际私法中住所作为离婚管辖权基础的发展。维持英国人的住所与保留“白人”身份密切相关,在印度等非白人殖民地定居的英国白人被降级为种族模糊的状态。由于英国法院拒绝承认英属印度法院基于居住而颁布的离婚法令,因此住所规则将离婚救济限制在那些经济上富裕并能够前往大都市法院的人身上。因此,无数在印度离婚的英国人仍然在英国结婚,也就是说,他们被困在所谓的“跛行婚姻”中。为了纠正这种情况,英国为居住在印度但定居在英格兰和苏格兰的英国臣民制定了一个单独的离婚制度,但它复制了最初的定居规则的阶级障碍。因此,法律在创造相互构成但不稳定的阶级和种族类别方面发挥了重要作用。

‘Our Practice Has a Superiority:’ Debt Enforcement, Bills of Exchange, and Credit in Eighteenth-Century Glasgow “我们的实践有优势:”18世纪格拉斯哥的债务执行、汇票和信用
IF 0.3 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-07-26 DOI: 10.1093/ajlh/njad011

This article explores the relationship between the Scots law of bills of exchange, debt enforcement procedures, and credit in the eighteenth century. Compared to England, Scots law’s procedures for recovering debts on obligations were faster, cheaper, and more efficient. These legal provisions are under-appreciated in the current literature on bills of exchange. Scots law’s superiority meant that the provision of medium-value credit in urban economies often occurred through written obligations. Using a new archival data set of nearly 300 bills of exchange from Glasgow, this article demonstrates how Glaswegians used those instruments. It finds that elements of the law of obligations traditionally stressed in the literature, namely negotiability, do little to explain the use of credit instruments in Glasgow. Instead, it was Scots law’s quick recovery procedures that account for their patterns of use. The data shows that inland bills did not commonly pass from hand to hand but instead were held as proofs of debt that could quickly be enforced. The advantage of Scots law in this area did not go unnoticed by contemporaries, and unsuccessful attempts at legal reform in the Victorian era sought to introduce the Scottish rules to the English system. This article joins a growing literature in turning scholarly focus away from the negotiable properties of bills, and shows the importance of expedited enforcement procedures for understanding the Scots credit system. It suggests that paying closer attention to procedural law and differences between jurisdictions can advance research agendas on the relationship between law and economic development.
本文探讨了十八世纪苏格兰汇票法、债务执行程序和信用之间的关系。与英格兰相比,苏格兰法律追偿债务的程序更快、更便宜、更有效。这些法律规定在目前关于汇票的文献中没有得到充分的重视。苏格兰法律的优越性意味着在城市经济中提供中等价值的信贷通常是通过书面义务的方式进行的。本文使用来自格拉斯哥的近300张汇票的新档案数据集,展示了格拉斯哥人如何使用这些工具。它发现,传统上在文献中强调的义务法要素,即可流通性,对解释格拉斯哥信贷工具的使用几乎没有作用。相反,苏格兰法律的快速恢复程序解释了它们的使用模式。数据显示,内地的票据通常不会在人手之间传递,而是作为可以迅速执行的债务凭证。苏格兰法律在这一领域的优势并没有被同时代的人忽视,维多利亚时代的法律改革尝试试图将苏格兰规则引入英格兰体系,但没有成功。本文加入了越来越多的文献,将学术焦点从票据的可转让属性转移,并显示了快速执行程序对理解苏格兰信用制度的重要性。这表明,更密切地关注程序法和司法管辖区之间的差异,可以推进关于法律与经济发展关系的研究议程。

The best answer? Justice Nelson’s concurrence in Dred Scott v. Sandford 最好的答案是什么?纳尔逊法官在德雷德·斯科特诉桑福德案中的意见

The merits, comparative and absolute, of Justice Samuel Nelson’s concurring opinion in the Dred Scott case of 1857 have not been adequately recognized. Nelson took ground that was legally more secure at the time than did either Chief Justice Taney, in his opinion for the Court, or the dissenters, Justices McLean and Curtis. Refusing to follow Taney’s ill-supported denials of Black citizenship and Congressional power over the Territories, he also understood better than the dissenters what conflict-of-laws doctrine, the precedent of Swift v. Tyson (1842), and the law of marriage and divorce implied for Scott. Nelson’s opinion carried a mix of political implications, but it possessed more credibility than the other opinions in the case for its solid grounding in accepted legal principles and freedom from overt partisanship.
塞缪尔·纳尔逊法官在1857年德雷德·斯科特一案中的一致意见的优点,无论是相对的还是绝对的,都没有得到充分认识。纳尔逊当时的立场在法律上比首席大法官塔尼(在他代表最高法院的意见中)或持不同意见的麦克莱恩和柯蒂斯法官都更安全。他拒绝遵循特尼毫无根据的否认黑人公民权和国会对领土的权力,他也比反对者更了解法律冲突原则、斯威夫特诉泰森案(1842年)的先例以及婚姻和离婚法对斯科特的含义。纳尔逊的意见带有多种政治含义,但由于其坚实的法律原则基础和不受明显的党派偏见的影响,它比本案中的其他意见更具可信度。

‘I Laid Earl and Clementine on a Chair and Whipped Them’: Child Murder and Criminal Justice in the Jim Crow South “我把厄尔和克莱门汀放在椅子上鞭打他们”:南方种族歧视的儿童谋杀和刑事司法
IF 0.3 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-05-30 DOI: 10.1093/ajlh/njad009
J. Adler
This article explores a horrific 1945 child murder in New Orleans and argues that the case revealed broader developments in Southern criminal justice in the age of Jim Crow. Ernestine Bonneval tied her young children to an ironing board and lashed them, killing her 7-year-old daughter. The murder generated outrage, with residents demanding severe punishment, even the gallows, for the brutal crime. After a jury returned a guilty verdict, the judge sentenced the killer to one year in the state penitentiary. New Orleanians initially expressed fury at the lenient punishment but quickly conveyed sympathy for the murdering mother and perceived her as the victim of a failed legal system. The shift reflected four wider changes in white sensibilities about the role of the state. First, New Deal programs establishing a safety net during the Great Depression transformed white attitudes toward government authority. Second, Clementine Bonneval’s death became tethered to a national panic over juvenile delinquency, even though the victim was only 7. Third, gender ideals influenced perceptions of women who engaged in criminal violence. Fourth, and most important, Southern whites increasingly encoded violence as an African American behavior. As a consequence, white killers became hapless victims of circumstances beyond their control. The Bonneval murder was reinterpreted within a racialized construction of crime and criminal culpability that produced more aggressive policing and more draconian punishment for African American suspects and fewer arrests, indictments, convictions, and long prison sentences for white killers. Jim Crow, in short, shaped the modernization of Southern criminal justice.
本文探讨了1945年发生在新奥尔良的一起可怕的儿童谋杀案,并认为该案揭示了吉姆·克劳时代南方刑事司法的更广泛发展。Ernestine Bonneval把她年幼的孩子绑在熨衣板上并鞭打他们,杀死了她7岁的女儿。这起谋杀案引起了民众的愤怒,居民们要求对这起残忍的罪行进行严厉的惩罚,甚至是绞刑架。陪审团作出有罪判决后,法官判处凶手在州监狱服刑一年。新奥尔良人最初对这种宽大的惩罚表示愤怒,但很快就表达了对这位谋杀母亲的同情,并认为她是失败的法律体系的受害者。这一转变反映了白人对国家角色的看法发生了四个更广泛的变化。首先,在大萧条期间建立安全网的新政计划改变了白人对政府权威的态度。其次,克莱门汀·邦尼瓦尔的死引发了全国对青少年犯罪的恐慌,尽管受害者只有7岁。第三,性别理想影响对参与犯罪暴力的妇女的看法。第四,也是最重要的一点,南方白人越来越多地将暴力视为非裔美国人的行为。结果,白人杀手成了他们无法控制的不幸的受害者。邦尼瓦尔谋杀案在种族化的犯罪和刑事罪责结构中被重新解释,导致对非裔美国人嫌疑人的更激进的警务和更严厉的惩罚,而对白人凶手的逮捕、起诉、定罪和长期监禁的减少。简而言之,吉姆·克劳塑造了南方刑事司法的现代化。

O’Connor v Donaldson (1975): Legal Challenges, Psychiatric Authority, and the Dangerousness Problem in Deinstitutionalization 奥康纳诉唐纳森案(1975):法律挑战、精神病学权威和去机构化中的危险问题

L. Hirshbein
In 1975, the Supreme Court heard the case of O’Connor v Donaldson, in which Kenneth Donaldson disputed the decision of his psychiatrists at the Florida State Hospital to keep him incarcerated for 15 years for a mental illness, though he was not dangerous or receiving treatment. The Donaldson decision pitted activist attorneys against psychiatrists who were increasingly beleaguered in their efforts to assert expertise about mental illness in American society. This case and its context offer a window into the psychiatric and legal conversations within the deinstitutionalization movement. During a time when both psychiatry and the law were shifting in their professional claims and emphases, each side was captured by an idea of reform based on how they imagined the problems to be configured. Examining themes of place, authority, right to treatment, and dangerousness reveals the limitations of the reforms and the hardening of a narrative that limited state action to the elision of mental illness with dangerousness.
1975年,最高法院审理了奥康纳诉唐纳森案,该案中,肯尼斯·唐纳森对佛罗里达州立医院精神病医生的决定提出异议,该决定以精神疾病为由将他监禁15年,尽管他并不危险,也没有接受治疗。唐纳森案的判决使维权律师与精神科医生对立起来,后者在美国社会中主张精神疾病专业知识的努力日益受到围攻。这个案例及其背景为去机构化运动中的精神病学和法律对话提供了一个窗口。在一段时间里,精神病学和法律都在转移他们的专业主张和重点,双方都被一种基于他们想象的问题配置的改革理念所吸引。考察地点、权威、治疗权利和危险性等主题,揭示了改革的局限性,以及一种将国家行动限制在排除具有危险性的精神疾病的叙事的僵化。

Charitable Trusts of Cemeteries and Places of Worship in Thailand: A Historical Anomaly 泰国墓地和礼拜场所的慈善信托:一个历史反常现象
IF 0.3 Q2 LAW Pub Date : 2023-01-23 DOI: 10.1093/ajlh/njac022

This article examines Thailand’s historic charitable trusts for the purpose of establishing and maintaining cemeteries and places of worship. Whilst existing literature explores the reception of English trusts law in British colonial territories in Southeast Asia over the course of nineteenth century, little is discussed in relation to Thailand, historically known as Siam, during the same period. Based on the author’s archival research, this article explores the route and development of these trusts and argues that, due to the Thai Supreme Court’s recognition of their charitable purpose, these trusts are not subject to a rule against perpetuities. Therefore, they will continue to present an anomalous exception to Thailand’s civil law legal framework and offer a fascinating example of the deep, tenacious roots put down by a rejected legal concept from Thailand’s brush with nineteenth century colonial powers.
本文考察了泰国历史上的慈善信托,目的是建立和维护墓地和礼拜场所。虽然现有的文献探讨了英国信托法律的接受在十九世纪的过程中,英国殖民领土在东南亚,很少讨论有关泰国,历史上被称为暹罗,在同一时期。本文在文献研究的基础上,探讨了这些信托的路径和发展,并认为,由于泰国最高法院对其慈善目的的承认,这些信托不受反永续规则的约束。因此,它们将继续为泰国的民法法律框架提供一个异常的例外,并提供一个迷人的例子,说明泰国与19世纪殖民列强的冲突中被拒绝的法律概念所奠定的深厚而顽强的根基。
