Call for Papers: DROIT PENALE: Indian Law Journal on Crime & Crimnology, Vol:1, Issue:2

ABOUT US

The term Droit Penale literally means criminal law. It has a French origin and deals with the various facets of crime and criminology. As a huge field of academic study, Criminology tends to cover criminal law and jurisprudence apart from dealing with crimes and criminal and socially deviant behavior of criminals. It is the scientific study of crime including its causes, responses by law enforcement and methods of prevention.

While Criminal law mainly focuses on the punishments coupled or labeled with such a criminal behavior. The ILJCC, a student-friendly law journal, has emerged bearing the idea to capitulate an exhaustive approach towards all these fields. It aims at providing a detailed analysis and assimilation of various issues on a single rostrum contrary to the concept of dealing with fields of criminal law and criminology separately.

Further, the journal also features the works, opinions, and viewpoints of the greatest jurists of all times blended with the modern critical approaches towards their work.

Droit Penale ILJCC is a double blind peer-reviewed, quarterly journal, aiming to publish high-quality contributions on law and legal studies delving into the depths of Crime and Criminology

Certificate Course: Economic Analysis of Regulation, [March 6, 2017 to March 10, 2017]

The Centre for Law & Economics is

 organizing a Certificate Course on Economic Analysis of Regulation.

About the Course:

 

After the last economic crisis, calls for more “regulation”, especially in financial markets, were widespread both at the national and the international level. To avoid the occurrence of such crisis, it is argued that more regulations are required. Regulations are indeed tools to shape economic systems. As such, they have tremendous impacts on economic growth and the well-being of population. If the content of regulations is to be known when strategies are considered, it is especially crucial for both lawyers and policy makers to understand the foundations of these regulations. For lawyers, it helps to develop innovative interpretations and powerful arguments; for policy makers to understand the consequences and the inherent limits of their actions while also providing tools to apprehend and criticize existing regulations. This course will inquire into the reasons for regulations, the options that are available when a regulation is considered, their limits and the strategies to deal with them. 

 

The course will cover one week, and it starts from Monday, March 6, 2017 & ends on Friday, March 10, 2017. 

 

Tentative Course Content

:

Lecture 1: Why should we regulate?

Lecture 2: Regulatory strategies (I): CAC and economic incentives.

Lecture 3: Regulatory strategies (II): Soft law, nudges, self-regulation and regulation by information. Lecture 4: How regulation can fail? theory and practice.

Lecture 5: Impact assessment and the case for CBA.

Summer School: NAYI DISHAYEIN on Deconstructing Development

Background ‘Development’ is the defining agenda of our times. All that goes on in its name receives an uncritical nod from citizens as diverse as the ‘savvy metropolitan’ to the ‘struggling villager’. Political parties are increasingly using it as the most effective rhetoric to win elections. Meanwhile, as a country, we continue to grapple with issues of poverty, inequality, marginalisation and conflict, and fail to understand why this ‘development’, which is the promised solution, is increasingly becoming problematic. About the Summer School: Sambhaavnaa Institute, has for the last five years been organising a participatory, reflective and experiential program series, called Nayi Dishayein. In this program we work with young participants to: ▪ Deconstruct, i.e., critically examine the notion of development ▪ Re-examine our belief systems, worldviews and privileges around power structures of caste, gender, religion, class ▪ Assess possibilities of change through exposure to a range of contemporary interventions/initiatives/movements towards a just society To know more and apply, please click here

In response to this reality the Company Act 2013 under section 135 provides that Board of every company referred to in section 135(1) shall ensure that the company spends in every financial year at least 2% of average net profit of preceding 3 financial years in pursuance of CSR policy.

[SpicyIP] Announcing the 5th SpicyIP Fellowship 2017-18!

Itching to write? On an exciting IP topic of your choice? What are you waiting for? Apply immediately to become a SpicyIP Fellow!

Year after year, our fellowship series has attracted some of the brightest minds to the world of IP. We are now pleased to announce the 5th edition of the SpicyIP Fellowship for 2017-18. 

SpicyIP Fellowship 2017-18

For those of you new to the blog, the SpicyIP fellowship is a coveted position for those seeking to make a mark in the world of IP. Warning though: it entails a high level of rigour in research and writing! Though great fun as well, given the range of topics covered and the freedom you enjoy in creatively crafting your take on various IP cases and developments.

We are now looking for a fresh set of sharp, passionate and dedicated fellows who can help us grow even spicier this year. Apart from the sheer joy of writing, the selected Fellows will earn a stipend of approximately Rs. 35,000 a year (Rs. 750 per post).

Our journey so far

SpicyIP’s avowed aim is to produce a more transparent, collaborative and productive IP and innovation ecosystem in India. We’ve been working very hard towards achieving this for the last ten years or so (you can read about our conference last year to mark this momentous occasion of our tenth year anniversary).

We say so, albeit with modesty: our efforts have not gone unnoticed. Last year, our criticism of the broad-based John Doe orders was acknowledged and well-received by the Bombay High Court in one of its orders. Recently, we were listed among the top IP blogs in the world here and here! Some of our other achievements can be viewed here.

We now boast a subscriber base of over 5,700 and our blog receiving an average of 1, 43, 000 views per month. Our blog stats too show the growth we’ve had over the years, thanks in great part to our readers who keep us on our toes with their rigorous critique of our posts.

ProBono India: Call for Interns & Campus Ambassadors

About ProBono India

We cannot imagine a society without law/rules/regulations. There are various problems in the society and to handle those situations effectively we need proper laws. Law plays very crucial role in social transformation in any country. Looking at various problems in the society, many laws have been enacted to cope up with the variety of situations. There are various laws but many are not aware about those. To address this situation, we need legal awareness activities in the society. On the other side, there are some marginalized people who cannot afford to hire a lawyer for legal advice or filing a case. Legal Aid service is needed to serve these kind of people. Many institutions/organizations have been set up which are engaged in various legal aid/awareness activities, some of these activities are highlighted in different way through different mediums but some don’t come into the limelight.

Looking at these situations ProBono India has been established. ProBono India is mentored by N S Raghavan Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning, Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore
