A prescrição no direito internacional privado brasileiro / Limitations of actions under brazilian private international law

Olympio José Matos Leite de Carvalho e Silva 23 August 2012 (has links)
Este trabalho trata do funcionamento da prescrição extintiva relacionada a ações pessoais, além da decadência, no âmbito do direito internacional privado. Primeiramente é feita uma breve análise histórica e comparatista do direito de regência da prescrição em relações de caráter internacional antes de se demonstrar a solução abarcada pelo direito brasileiro: a regência pela lei que rege a obrigação (lex causae). Apesar de ser um instituto de direito civil, substantivo, a prescrição possui muitas ligações com o direito processual, uma vez que o principal efeito de sua consumação é tonar inexigível uma obrigação e, em decorrência, pôr fim a um processo. Assim, o autor detalha em seguida as questões que são regidas pela lex causae e as que são regidas pela lex fori (aqui abrangendo também a lex arbitri) em matéria de prescrição no direito brasileiro, antes de tratar minuciosamente de como se opera a exceção da ordem pública para afastar a aplicação da lex causae estrangeira em matéria de prescrição no Brasil (incluindo também regras de aplicação imediata lois de police brasileiras). Ao final, cuida-se da prescrição na homologação e execução de sentenças estrangeiras no Brasil. / This work deals with the operation of limitation periods (prescription) related to actions in personam in the domain of the conflict of laws. It starts with a historical and comparatist analysis of its governing law in international relations before the rule adopted by the Brazilian law is shown: the law of the obligation as the governing law of the limitation rules (lex causae). Although limitation of actions is considered a substantive issue under Brazilian law, it is closely connected with procedural law in many aspects, since its main effect is to render an obligation unenforceable and thus terminate a lawsuit. Therefore, the author presents in detail the issues that are governed by the lex causae and the issues that are governed by the lex fori (also comprising the lex arbitri) related to limitations under Brazilian law, before he deals thoroughly with the operation of the public policy exception to the application of a foreign lex causae in such a matter (also comprising Brazilian imperative rules lois de police). And finally, this work handles the operation of statutes of limitation in proceedings for recognition and enforcement of foreign judicial and arbitral decisions in Brazil.

Encouraging volunteer engagement for Human Rights : a case study of International Justice Mission Germany

Johnson, Michéle 11 1900 (has links)
Inequality of power between the global North and the global South are negative aspects of globalisation, leading to increasing inequalities, disregard of human rights and impeding human development. Voluntary work is considered to play an important role in the local and global enforcement of human rights. This dissertation focuses on the importance of voluntary civic engagement in the social justice sector. An empirical study was carried out on the basis of qualitative research among German volunteers of the human rights NGO International Justic Mission (IJM) Deutschland in order to identify motivating factors that contribute to civic engagement. Social justice, the concept of IJM and faith were identified as most important motives. The opportunity of flexible, self-determined involvement and the provision of good support foster volunteer engagement. The study helps human rights NGOs to gain a deeper understanding of how volunteering for human rights can be encouraged. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies)
