After all, laws or practices that violate cherished freedoms in the physical world also violate those freedoms in the virtual world. The battle over net neutrality “is absolutely the First Amendment issue of our time,” just as warrantless searches of cell phones were among the Fourth Amendment issues of our time.","PeriodicalId":166493,"journal":{"name":"Legislation & Statutory Interpretation eJournal","volume":"259 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116947659","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}

I use nonlinear least squares on a panel of 48 of the 50 American states over the period 1978–2008. I find little evidence that states with larger than average lower or upper chambers experience a larger change in spending per capita in the presence of a shock. I do find a positive relationship between lower chamber size and the first difference of welfare spending per capita, but this increase is partially offset by a negative relationship between upper chamber size and welfare spending. These results are consistent with the interest groups theory of government, which states that larger legislatures can be associated with lobbying and bargaining costs that may have offsetting effects.","PeriodicalId":166493,"journal":{"name":"Legislation & Statutory Interpretation eJournal","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121457999","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}

This paper provides a theory of self-enforcing majoritarian commitment to restrictive procedures. We ask (i) why majorities consent to restrictive procedures in the first place, (ii) why restrictive procedures survive challenges thereafter, and (iii) with what policy consequences. In the model a risk-averse majority allocates procedural rights to increase procedural efficiency, i.e., reduce the procedural uncertainty of free-for-all bargaining. An equilibrium procedure is generally asymmetric and restrictive, generating non-majoritarian policy bias. Still, a majority may persist in endorsing it so as to avoid amplifying procedural and policy uncertainty.","PeriodicalId":166493,"journal":{"name":"Legislation & Statutory Interpretation eJournal","volume":"401 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116525483","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}

Workplace Mobbing and Workplace Harassment Regulation in Russia 俄罗斯的工作场所抢劫和工作场所骚扰法规

{"title":"Workplace Mobbing and Workplace Harassment Regulation in Russia","authors":"Daria V.

Doctrine does not provide consistent terminology. Legislation does not address these issues consistently in their entirety, recognizing only specific instances of their manifestation. Collective agreements contain only general provisions on this subject if any, and enterprise regulations have mostly superficial clauses unenforceable because of the lack of essence and relevant procedures. Russian legislative landscape also lacks stakeholders seriously interested in establishment and promotion of anti-mobbing and anti-harassment culture in the workplaces. Both government and public demonstrate a “we have more urgent questions to address” attitude. In this context absence of landmark cases and court decisions is a logical consequence and a natural result of the general disregard. Thus it is all the more important to highlight the circumstances in which a judicial protection can now be provided. This analysis and further research - including comparative studies - may help to reveal possible directions for the policy development in this field both in doctrinal and regulatory aspects. This paper attempts to outline the state of the art and the major tendencies in legal regulation of mobbing and harassment phenomena in Russia nowadays and to suggest possible explanations and solutions to the problems revealed.","PeriodicalId":166493,"journal":{"name":"Legislation & Statutory Interpretation eJournal","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115317489","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}

Cambell states in this regard that the in duplum rule can amplify section 103(5) where it is not in conflict with the National Credit Act. There is the presumption in South African law of interpretation of statutes that a statutory provision does not alter the existing common law more than clearly stated, whether expressly or by necessary implication. The Supreme Court of Appeal in the Nedbank case was requested in main to deal with the interpretation of section 103(5) of the National Credit Act and did not deal in depth with its possible impact on other legal principles underlying the common-law in duplum rule or other provisions of the National Credit Act. These include questions relating to whether the operation of section 103(5) is suspended pendente lite and the effect of a judgment after debt enforcement proceedings on section 103(5) of the National Credit Act. Another question which arises is whether there is a “novation” of a debt when the national consumer tribunal or a court grants a consent order in terms of section 138 read with section 86(8)(a) of the National Credit Act or a court grants a re-arrangement order in terms of section 87(1)(b)(ii) of the National Credit Act. In order to answer these questions it is important to establish the nature and effect of these orders.","PeriodicalId":166493,"journal":{"name":"Legislation & Statutory Interpretation eJournal","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123605624","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}
