Soviet Law and Soviet Society: Ethical Foundations of the Soviet Structure. Mechanism of the Planned Economy. Duties and Rights of Peasants and Workers. Rulers and Toilers. The Family and the State. Soviet Justice. National Minorities and Their Autonomy. The People’s Democracies and the Soviet Pattern for a United World
by George C. GuinsSoviet power rests on two main supports: the comp1ete economic dependence of the citizens upon the state and the unlimited politi cal control of the government over the economic, social and even cultural life. History knows various kinds of despotisms, dicta torships and regimentations of economic activity, but the U .S.S.R. represents a unique kind of dictatorship based on the one party system and integral planning with the specific goal of realization of communism. Mankind had never before known such a system. Even the best of possible comparisons, the ana logy with the period of Ptolemies in Egypt, is good only in so far as it concerns the regimentation of all kind of economic activity. There was in the past no ideology pretending to be adjusted to the needs of the toiling masses, no planning system on the same scale and no Communist party apparatus. As concerns the modern world the comparative method is necessary for giving the most graphical characterization of the differences between the Western democracies, with their ethical traditions, rule of law and the principle of the inviolability of individual rights, and, on the other hand, the Soviet monolithic state, with its unscrupulous policy, extremities of regimentations and drastic penalties.
A Study of the Philosophy of International Law as Seen in Works of Latin American Writers
by H.B. JacobiniOne of the most unfortunate facts about the relationship of the United States with Latin America is that only in recent years has there been any appreciable amount of intellectual interchange with reference to law. This, of course, is an example of the relative lack of cultural exchange between these peoples. Only in very recent years has the North American interest in Latin America been in any sense general and active. While there are a few recent volumes which discuss various aspects of Latin American law in a fashion calculated to interest the North American lawyer and academician, the Latin American contributions to and attitudes toward international law are virtually unknown in the United States except in very restricted quarters. For this reason it was thought that a survey such as the one presented here would contribute not only to a better under standing of Latin American juristic thought as pertaining to international law, but also to a better comprehension of legal theory in general, and of Latin American culture as a whole. The phase of the philosophy of international law which, with reference to the regional application here studied, has been the major interest in this work, i.e., whether writers rely more on naturalism or positivism as the philosophical foundation of the law of nations, is, like the matter of Latin American law itself, a subject which has been neglected by North American scholars.
Aggressive War: An International Crime
by Cornelis Arnold PompeSix years after the rendering of the Nuremberg Judgment world conditions are not such as to encourage a study on what constituted its principal innovation in the legal field: the punishment of the authors of aggressive war. The war alliance against the Axis Powers which was the political basis of the Nuremberg Trial and of the United Nation~ Organisation has broken up. Mutual fear, threats and accusations and a gigantic armament race are the dominating factors in international life during the cold war period, and the minds of statesmen, military men and lawyers alike are more preoccupied with the problem of how to win a possible third world war than with that of preventing its occurrence and avoiding responsibility for its outbreak. While the survival of their freedom and civilization is at stake, the nations seem more intent on preparing for what is vaguely and equivocally called 'self-defence' than on accepting and assuring the reign of law. The strain of the protracted struggle in Korea, moreover, seems to turn the first experiment with military sanctions against an aggressor into a classic game of power politics. It is not surprising that in such circumstances little energy is displayed in efforts to implement the principles to which the United Nations pledged themselves in Nuremberg, and that many statesmen and lawyers seem prepared to abandon, at least for the near future, the precedent of the time of alliance, expression of confidence in the victory of law over force.

Handbuch des Österreichischen Verwaltungsrechts (Rechts- und Staatswissenschaften #7/2)
by Ludwig AdamovichIV beleuchten und zu erliLutern. In Wahrheit tut auf diesem Rechts gebiete nichts so not, als die am Rechtsleben interessierten Kreise gleichsam sehen zu lehren, das Gestrtipp der wirr ineinander tiber greifenden Normen zu losen, die Gesamtheit der geltenden Rechts vorschriften in einem geordneten System vorzuftihren und so den bis zur Unkenntlichkeit versttimmelten Zusammenhang der ftir die ver schiedenen Verwaltungsgebiete erlassenen Gesetze und Verordnungen klarzulegen. Dieser Aufgabe will die vorliegende neue Auflage dienen, deren Ausarbeitung ich die gro.Bte Mtihe und Sorgfalt gewidmet habe. Die Arbeit beschrankt sich, so wie in den frtiheren Auflagen, auf eine streng iuristische Darstellung des materiellen Verwaltungs rechts, sie sieht von verwaltungspolitischen und von kritischen Aus ftihrungen mit voller Absicht ab. Man mag in dieser Zurtickhaltung ainen Mangel erblicken. Ich personlich halte eben die Vermengung von rechtlichen mit rechtspolitischen Betrachtungen fur unangebracht. Die historischen Einleitungen, die den einzelnen Abschnitten voran gestellt sind, wollen in schlagwortartiger Ktirze darlegen, in welchem Zeitpunkt sich die Gesetzgebung in {)sterreich den einzelnen Ver waltungsproblemen zugewendet hat lmd welche weitere Entwicklung die Gesetzgebung auf diesen Gebieten, insbesondere im Hinblick auf das Wirksamwerden deutscher Rechtsvorschriften, seither genommen hat. Die Ubersicht tiber die Rechtsquellen und tiber das Schrifttum wollen iedem, der im Studium oder in der Praxis eine bestimmte ein zelne Frage eingehender zu prtifen und zu losen hat, den Weg zu den maJ1gebenden Fundstellen weisen.

An Analysis of Resemblance (Routledge Revivals)
by Ralph W. Church dec'dFirst published in 1952, An Analysis of Resemblance has two-fold aims. The opening chapters seek to present what it is not about. It is not concerned with any sense of resemblance in which that term is used by thinkers generally and widely called Hegelian Idealists. The several subsequent chapters of the work advance an analysis of four senses of resemblance. Two of these four senses would seem to be radical – in the etymological sense of the term. The other two senses are derivative. The concluding chapter advances some considerations as to the bearing of an analysis of resemblance on the matters of universals and taxonomy. Professor Church’s clearly stated ideas will arouse much discussion among students of philosophy. This book helps to round off his studies in this field and is a worthy successor to his earlier works.

International Bar Association: A Commentary on Conciliation of Domestic Matters
by Yoshimatsu Terashimaation" and "Conciliation Terms," with further supplementary notes on "Methods of Conciliation of Domestic Matters." Inasmuch as the practice of domestic matters conciliation is a most important job, it is very difficult to describe it adequately. Feeling a great responsibility imposed upon my shoulder, I have to confess that I prepared this little pointer with great toil and application. I am afraid, however, that due to my mediocrity and immaturity I may have committed some inadvertent errors or dogmatic assertions. I am glad to say that after having shown this paper to my seniors I have obtained their approval on its publication. Just full three years have elapsed since I engaged myself in the conciliation of domestic matters. But that holy mysterious land of treasure lies still unconquered beyond many rivers and, mountains far in the distance. So we pilgrims must devote ourselves heart and soul to the steady progress of study. If this small work proves a mile stone towards our destination, I shall be happier than I expected. Relying on good walkers in our party, I sincerely pray that they will before long reach the summit of the sacred mountain where they can command a grand view of the vast field of legislation.

Lord Devlin
by Justice John SackarLord Devlin was a leading lawyer of his generation. Moreover, he was one of the most recognised figures in the judiciary, thanks to his role in the John Bodkin Adams trial and the Nyasaland Commission of Inquiry. It is hard then to believe that he retired as a Law Lord at a mere 58 years of age. This important book looks at the life, influences and impact of this most important judicial figure. Starting with his earliest days as a schoolboy before moving on to his later years, the author draws a compelling picture of a complex, brilliant man who would shape not just the law but society more generally in post-war Britain.
Rights Affecting the Manufacture and Use of Gramophone Records
by W. MakWhen dealing, as in this study, with gramophone records, we almost unconsciously think of music. For the number of gramophone records in which music, either vocal or instrumental, does not playa part is quite small. Hence we shall concern our selves principally with musical records. 1. Music may be said to be as old as humanity itself: from the very beginning of history man has given expression to his emo tions by means of sounds. In one of the first chapters of the Bible harps and organs are mentioned 1) and further on in the Book of Books we find musical instruments mentioned repeatedly. Let us quote a few instances at random: Gen. 31 : 27; Ex. 15 : 20; 1 Sam. 16 : 23; 2 Sam. 6 : 5; Psalm 150; 1 Cor. 14 : 7,8. Throughout the ages music having at first no other than a religious character, evolved and differentiated itself with the result that now we know music in all its numerous variations: beside religious music we have secular music in the form of symphonic music, military music, dance-music and so on.

Form and Spirit: A Study in Religion (Routledge Revivals)
by J.H. BadleyFirst published in 1951, Form and Spirit deals with two primary questions regarding religion- a) the nature of religion as a permanent need in human life, and its relation to the cults and creeds in which it has been embodied, and b) whether what is admittedly a crying need of our time can be met by the revival of religious forms which have lost their hold. An attempt is made to trace the evolution of religion, and a brief survey is given of the development of the chief world religions. The object is not to show that any of these can be accounted ‘truer’ than the rest but rather to see what were the reasons for the forms that they have taken, and what elements and tendencies are common to them, as throwing light both on the meaning of religion and on the needs of man's spiritual nature. This is an essential read for general readers interested in religion.

Juristische Logik
by Ulrich KlugMan darf es wohl als einen besonderen Vorzug der Jurisprudenz unter den Geisteswissenschaften ansehen, daB sie darum bemüht ist, ihre Theorie und Praxis in besonders engem Kontakt mit der Logik zu gestalten. Eigen tümlich ist indessen, daB diesem Zusammenhang nur selten genauere Unter suchungen gewidmet sind. Hinzukommt, daB in der deutschen Rechts wissenschaft die meisten gröBeren Arbeiten aus diesem Problemkreis vom Standpunkt der klassischen Logik ausgehen und die intensive Entwicklung der modernen Logikforschung allenfalls andeutungsweise berücksichtigen. Demgegenüber versucht die vorliegende Schrift einen ersten Schritt zur Auswertung der modernen Logik für die Jurisprudenz zu vollziehen. Es versteht sich von selbst, daB die bei solcher Gelegenheit herangezogenen logischen Hilfsmittel aus der Sicht des Spezialisten im Bereich der neuen Logik sehr elementar erscheinen. Diese Beschränkung eröffnete aber die Möglichkeit, zu versuchen, das Thema so zu behandeln, daB die Darstel lung auch dem Nichtgeübten les bar und verständlich bleibt. Irgendwelche Kenntnisse aus der Logiktheorie werden nicht vorausgesetzt. Es war daher notwendig, zugleich eine Einführung in die Grundbegriffe und elementaren Haupttechniken der modernen Logik zu geben. Insoweit könnten die vor liegenden Untersuchungen vor allem in ihren Abschnitten I und 11 auch für Nicht juristen von Interesse sein.

Urheber- und Verlagsrecht (Enzyklopädie der Rechts- und Staatswissenschaft)
by Eugen UlmerDie deutschen Urheberrechtsgesetze sind überaltert. Wer den heuti gen Stand des Urheberrechts darstellen will, muß neben den Gesetzen die Fortbildung in Rechtsprechung und Schrifttum, die Arbeiten an der Urheberrechtsreform, die typische Vertragsgestaltung und nicht zuletzt das internationale Recht berücksichtigen. Da die Rechtsentwicklung im Flusse ist, ist die systematische Dar stellung erschwert. Gleichwohl erscheint sie mir als wichtig und ange sichts der Wiederaufnahme der Arbeiten an der Urheberrechtsreform als vordringlich. An verschiedenen Stellen des Buches, insbesondere bei der Lehre von Form und Inhalt der Werke und von der urheberrecht lichen Verfügung, habe ich mir die Frage vorgelegt, ob nicht mono graphische Untersuchungen vorauszuschicken seien. Aber das Interesse am Abschluß der Gesamtdarstellung schien mir, trotz des dadurch be dingten Zwanges zur Kürze, zu überwiegen. Ein vollständiges Bild vom Urheberrecht läßt sich nur gewinnen, wenn auch das Urhebervertragsrecht einbezogen wird. Daß dabei das Verlagsrecht den breitesten Raum einnimmt, liegt in der Natur der Sache. Neben dem Verlagsvertrag müssen aber auch die Aufführungs verträge, die Wahrnehmungsverträge, die mit Verwertungsgesellschaften geschlossen werden, die Verträge im Filmwesen, in der bildenden Kunst usf. berücksichtigt werden. Trotz der Verschiedenheit der einzelnen Vertragstypen gibt es gemeinsame Regeln, deren Herausarbeitung auch für die Deutung des Verlagsrechts wichtig ist. Gesetzgebung, Rechtsprechung und Schrifttum sind bis Herbst 1950 berücksichtigt. Literatur, die während der Drucklegung erschienen ist, ist im Nachtrag vermerkt. Heidel berg, im Januar 1951. E.
