Money is a public good. The regulation of its creation, supply and distribution is of national and international interest. Monetary stability is an important regulatory goal conducted through an interaction of economic, political, religious factors as well as legislative action. The state plays an intermediary role, bridging domestic interests and international interests. Increasing interdependence between national economic systems and international obligations sometimes leads to the manipulation of systems as well as currency wars. Regulation is done through co-operative international action since domestic regulators are no longer sufficiently equipped to do so. Resultantly, there is an emergence of new structural paradigms to deal with it. Meanwhile, states still enjoy certain residual competences of sovereignty. Numerous legal factors act as constraints on sovereignty with far reaching implications on states’ regulatory space. In light of the divergence of regulatory objectives, there is an apparent need to balance municipal with international interests on the regulation of the monetary system. / Mercantile Law / LLM

摘要 「祭祀公業」乃基於傳統習慣所形成擁有特殊性之「共有」，係以祭祀祖先為目的所設立之獨立財產。本文研究乃以祭祀公業條例第五十條規範過去所設立祭祀公業法人與現行民法成立之財團法人（宗祠財團法人）其設立目的及宗旨是否相同，又本條例針對過去設立之祭祀公業法人格之取得及未取得法人格時土地權屬應如何處理，及其條例規定衍生派下現員權屬爭議、及男女平權繼承是否妥當，予以分析祭祀公業權屬爭議問題。試圖從慎終追遠及延續傳統宗族舊慣的角度，以分析祭祀公業之權屬結構，盼能指出台灣從過去到現在實施清理祭祀公業政策之盲點，俾利政府實施祭祀公業清理制度的處理原則及法令修訂時的參考。 本文第二章有關祭祀公業及其相關規定之探討：就祭祀公業緣起、意義、制度沿革、派下的權利與義務及權屬爭議之解釋、判決、判例、規定加以彙整，並以祭祀公業之法律性質、派下員申報及登記、廢止解散等權屬問題之予以論述；第三章祭祀公業主體性問題之探討，首先是應探究祭祀公業共有法人所有之差異性；其次過去設立之祭祀公業法人格土地權屬之分析，另規範過去所設立祭祀公業財團法人（宗祠財團法人）之爭議問題；第四章以派下現員之清理、派下權與房份配置及祭祀公業之解散，並深入分析祭祀公業權屬爭議問題。 第五章結論與建議：第一、祭祀公業取得派下全員證明書後，依據私法自治原則及法律本質決定其權屬關係為「祭祀公業法人」，以符合下列祭祀公業原設立之宗旨。第二、祭祀公業依過去法令所設立宗祠財團法人，應准其辦理更名登記為祭祀公業法人，以符合祭祀公業之法律本質、設立宗旨及其主體性。第三、派下員之繼受取得應依設立時章程（鬮書）之約定；未約定時，則依宗祧繼承男子繼承為原則，女子繼承為例外。現存之祭祀公業，既係日據時期所設立，自應適用設立當時之繼承習慣。若為解決男女平權繼承的問題，而恣意以現代民法所規定之男女平權繼承概念予以清理，將導致產權複雜化及違背台灣先民設立祭祀公業慎終追遠之宗旨。第四、祭祀公業解散清算分配賸餘財產時應依設立時章程（鬮書）之約定；未約定時，則依舊慣以房份為原則，均分（推定均等）為例外。最後提出後續研究建議，首先，祭祀公業清理被編定公共設施用地者之財產權保障問題；再者，祭祀公業之資產委由「公益信託」管理之可行性；暨派下權之繼受制度如何定位以符合我國舊慣等，這些議題都值得深入研究。而本文期盼祭祀公業清理制度之實施，能明確界定派下員之權屬關係，以落實財產權之保障。 關鍵字：祭祀公業、法人、宗祠財團法人、男女平權繼承、鬮書 / Abstract “Ancestral estate” is a special, independent property of “joint ownership” formed by tradition and custom, whose purpose is to worship clan ancestors. This study intends to research the similarity of the purpose and objective for establishing the ancestral estate juridical person, governed by Article 50 of the “Statue Governing the Ancestral Estate” and the foundation (Ancestral Shrine Foundation), governed by the Civil Code. By focusing on the following issues: (a) Land ownership before and after acquiring corporate personality of ancestral estate; (b) Authority controversy between clan members; and (c) The appropriateness of inheritance equality between men and women, this study tries to analyze the authority structure of ancestral estate from the perspectives of “due sacrifice for the ancestor” and continuation of traditional custom of clan ancestor worshiping. The purpose of this study is to pinpoint the blind spot existing in the past and current governmental policy concerning ancestral estate so that the government may find useful reference in future implementation of relevant systems and enactment of regulations. Chapter two discusses the nature of ancestral estate and its related regulations: the origin, meaning, historic system timeline, rights and obligation of clan members, and the compilation of controversial interpretations, judgments, precedents, and regulation. Further discussion will also be given on the legal nature, reporting of clan member, and the authorities regarding the revocation and dissolution of organization. Chapter three discusses the subject matters of ancestral estate. Firstly, the difference between the juridical persons of ancestral estate is discussed. Secondly, analyze the land ownership of ancestral estate and regulate the issues existing in the ancestral estate foundation (Ancestral Shrine Foundation). Chapter four deals with the sorting out of clan members, share allocation of property ownership, dissolution of ancestral estate, and an in-depth analysis will also be given on the authority controversies. Conclusion and suggestion will be provided in Chapter five: (1) After acquiring staff certificate of ancestral estate, the ancestral estate shall be deemed as a “ancestral estate juridical person” in accordance with the principle of autonomy and legal nature of private law, to meet the following establishing objectives; (2) The ancestral shrine foundation established in accordance with past regulations shall be allowed to change name and registered as ancestral estate juridical person to meet the legal nature, establishing objective and objectivity; and (3) The inheritance acquisition of clan members shall abide by the terms and conditions set forth in the articles (book of property inheritance); in the event of no agreement is made, the principle of male inheritance in accordance with clan pedigree shall govern, with female inheritance as exception. The existing ancestral estate was first established in the Japanese occupation period, which was applicable to the inheritance practices of the time. If, in order to solve the inheritance equality problem between both sexes, the competent authority tries to sort out in an arbitrary way the current issue with the concept of modern Civil Code, it is bound to cause complexity and in violation to the objective of due offerings set forth by Taiwanese ancestors; (4) The ancestral estate shall set up articles (book of property inheritance) governing its dissolution, liquidation, allocation of residual property; if no agreement is made, it shall be based on pedigree as principle, with even distribution (assumed even) as exception. Finally, suggestions will be provided for subsequent studies concerning: Property protection regarding public facilities designated for the sorting out of ancestral estate; The feasibility of “public trust” management of the assets of ancestral estate; and how to position the system of inheritance acquisition in order to meet the national custom and traditional practices. The main purpose of this study is to realize the protection of property by giving a clearly defined authority of clan members through the implementation of sorting out system of ancestral estate.

Après son annexion à la Sublime Porte au XVIe siècle, Alger a vue naître de grandes fondations de waqf, dont celle des Subul al-Khayrāt qui se distingue par le fait qu'il s'agit d'une fondation de madhhab hanéfite alors que la population algéroise est de madhhab malékite dans la grande majorité. Elle a été crée par les Turcs ottomans vers la fin du XVIe siècle et chargée de la gestion des mosquées hanéfites qui lui en dépendaient ainsi que de leurs biens appartenant à leur waqf. Trois de ses mosquées ont survécues à la démolition après la prise d'Alger : al-Jāmi‘ al-Jadid qui est la principale mosquée hanéfite édifié au XVIIe siècle par ordre de l'armée (bi amrin min al-‘askar al-manṣūr) et financée par les Subul al-Khayrāt, Jāmi‘ Kashshāwa et Jāmi‘ al-Qā'id Ṣafar. L'exploitation des documents relatifs aux waqf, pour la plupart inédits, a servi à connaître le nombre et la nature des biens waqf de la dite fondation et, par conséquent, leurs fondateurs qui sont en majorité des Turcs. Les documents ont également servi à connaître la composante démographique de la ville d'Alger à l'époque ottomane ainsi que les différents fonctions et métiers exercés dans cette cité. / After its annexion to the Sublime Porte in the 16th century, large waqf foundations developed in Algiers: the Subul al-Khayrāt figured among them. The Subul al-Khayrāt were different from other waqf in the city because their foundations were regulated by the Hanafi madhhab while the Algerian population was largely Maliki. The Ottoman Turks created the Subul al-Khayrāt towards the end of the 16th century and they created the structures to manage the waqf which belonged to it. Three mosques belonging to the Subul al-Khayrāt survived the demolition of Algiers after its conquest by the French in 1830: al-Jāmi‘ al-Jadid which is the principal Hanafi mosque built in the 17th century by order of the army (bi amrin min al-‘askar al-manṣūr) and financed by the Subul al-Khayrāt, Jāmi‘ Kashshāwa and Jāmi‘ al-Qā'id Ṣafar.The study of the pertinent documents regarding this waqf which, for the most part have not been published, served as the basis to study the number and the nature of the assets belonging to this foundation and, as a consequence, to study their endowers who were mostly Turks. The documents also served as a source to know the demographic components of the city of Algiers during the Ottoman period as well as the different functions and professions exercized in this city.

[pt] Esta tese de doutorado é um estudo sobre a política internacional de banimento, uma política internacional de criminalização e proscrição. A partir da leitura de alguns dos memorandos norte-americanos da Guerra contra o Terror, e influenciado pelo quase-conceito de rastro de Jacques Derrida, bem como pelo insight de Carl Schmitt sobre o dualismo exceção/regra, este trabalho segue certos rastros constitutivos daqueles documentos e, sobretudo, do status de combatente ilegal daqueles prisioneiros determinado ali. A partir destes rastros constitutivos da categoria de combatente ilegal, identificam-se os rastros da categoria de pirata na arquitetura político-jurídica da ordem internacional, e, a partir destes, os de uma alteridade excepcional que Schmitt identificou como a de um inimigo fora-da-lei, ou fora-da-lei da humanidade. Nesse sentido, destacam-se a alteridade e o espaço-tempo excepcionais do pirata, comentando-se seu ambíguo status político-jurídico – de fora-da-lei internacional e inimigo da humanidade (hostis humani generis) –, bem como seu banimento do espaço-tempo do sistema internacional moderno e da humanidade. A partir daí, e influenciado pelos estudos mais recentes de R. B. J. Walker sobre o fora constitutivo e as práticas soberanas de exclusão do sistema internacional moderno, identificam-se e comentam-se os rastros, sobretudo contemporâneos, da política internacional de criminalização e proscrição. E então, influenciado por aquele quase-conceito de rastro de Derrida, conclui-se este trabalho posicionando-o em relação a esta política internacional de banimento; ou seja, rastreando o Fora-da-lei da Humanidade. / [en] This PhD dissertation is a study on the international politics of outlawing, an international politics of criminalization and proscription. Starting from the reading of some of the US Memos on the War on Terror, and influenced by Jacques Derrida s quasi-concept of trace, as well as by Carl Schmitt s insight on the exception/rule dualism, this work follows certain traces which are constitutive of those documents and, most importantly, of the unlawful combatant status of those detainees as determined therein. Thus, from these constitutive traces of the category of unlawful combatant, this work identifies the traces of the category of the pirate within the political-legal architecture of the international order, and, from them, those of an exceptional alterity which Schmitt has identified as one of an outlaw enemy, or an outlaw of humanity. In this regard, it focuses on the exceptional alterity and space-time of the pirate, analyzing his ambiguous political-legal status – as both an international outlaw and an enemy of humankind (hostis humani generis) –, as well as his outlawry from the space-time of the modern international system and of humanity. From this analysis, then, and influenced by R. B. J. Walker s most recent studies on the constitutive outside and the exclusionary sovereign practices of the modern international system, it identifies and comments on the traces, most especially on the contemporary traces, of the international politics of criminalization and proscription. And then, influenced by that Derridian quasi-concept of trace, this PhD work concludes positioning itself in relation to this international politics of outlawing; that is, tracing the Outlaw of Humanity.

A concepção ampliada de acesso à justiça e o impacto dos mecanismos de processamento de conflitos na construção do Estado Democrático de Direito compõem a temática de fundo deste trabalho. A partir de 2010, o impulso aos meios não adversariais de gestão de conflitos (potencialmente mais satisfatórios, a depender das características da disputa, pessoas envolvidas e histórico do relacionamento) tomou corpo de verdadeira política pública no Brasil, e está formalmente representado no microssistema legal formado pela Resolução nº 125 de 2010 do Conselho Nacional de Justiça (CNJ), pelo Código de Processo Civil (CPC); e pela Lei nº 13.140/15, normatização que, no entanto, não abrange os conflitos e o Judiciário trabalhistas. Em um país marcado por gritante desigualdade econômica, social e educacional, e pelo reiterado descumprimento da legislação trabalhista, a introdução de mecanismos consensuais de solução de conflitos (privados ou não), apesar de todas as vantagens apontadas pela doutrina especializada (inclusive de índole psicossocial e não apenas para a redução de processos), toma contornos densos nesta seara. Teme-se que a introdução desses mecanismos, menos \"rígidos\" sob o aspecto da efetivação do direito material discutido (paradigma positivo), represente mais uma porta para a precarização dos direitos individuais trabalhistas, os quais, em razão do caráter redistributivo, instrumentalizam a concretização de um interesse público: a promoção de justiça social. Mesmo diante dessa advertência e sem perde-la de vista, fixamos como hipótese de pesquisa a insuficiência do sistema de justiça trabalhista quanto a mecanismos aptos à promoção da autocomposição (sobretudo nos conflitos metajurídicos), e que não descuidassem, concomitantemente, do papel redistributivo do Direito do Trabalho e das peculiaridades da respectiva relação. A partir disso, investigamos possibilidades para o aperfeiçoando do que denominamos sistema híbrido de gestão de conflitos e, consequentemente, da cultura de gestão cooperativa de conflitos. Para tanto, esta pesquisa se valeu de duas etapas: uma teórica e outra prática. Na pesquisa teórica, apresentamos as teorias e normas sobre os meios não adversarias de solução de conflitos, as características e funções dos direitos trabalhistas no Estado Democrático de Direito, o atual sistema de justiça trabalhista, bem como as principais polêmicas envolvidas na matéria. Na pesquisa prática, testamos um procedimento não adversarial com traços particulares em comparação aos regulados no Brasil, e buscamos integrar a perspectiva das próprias partes à sua avaliação, via investigação de motivação e de opinião. Colhidos os dados por meio de questionários, e interpretados à luz da pesquisa teórica, formulamos inferências e passamos à fase propositiva do estudo. Nesta, propomos parâmetros para a sistematização de um mecanismo autocompositivo diferenciado para a Justiça do Trabalho, o qual denominamos reunião de orientação facilitadora. Tal mecanismo, inspirado simultaneamente na mediação, conciliação e intervenção neutra de terceiros (portanto não absolutamente original, consentimos) é sugerido para o tratamento preferencial de conflitos de índole metajurídica acentuada (comum em contratos marcados por maior proximidade entre empregador e empregado, como vínculo doméstico e o estabelecido com pequenas empresas), em relação aos quais detectamos a maior necessidade de aperfeiçoamento do sistema de justiça trabalhista. / The expanded concept of access to justice and the impact of the mechanisms of conflicts processing in the construction of the Democratic State of Law constitute the underlying theme of this project work. From 2010, the drive to non-adversarial means of conflict management (potentially more satisfactory, depending on the nature of the dispute, on the people involved and on the relationship history) took shape of real public policy in Brazil, which is formally represented in the legal system composed by the Resolution nº 125 of 2010 of the National Justice Council (NJC), by the Civil Procedure Code (CPC); and by the Act nº 13.140/15, standardization which, however, does not cover the conflicts or the Labor Courts. In a country known by an outstanding economic, social and educational inequality, and by the repeated non-compliance with the labor legislation, the introduction of consensual mechanisms of conflict resolution (may they be private or not), despite all the advantages pointed out by specialized doctrine (including of psychosocial nature and not only to the reduction of processes), may assume a dense perspective in this context. It is feared that the introduction of such mechanisms, which are less \"strict\" under the light of implementation of the substantive law discussed (positive paradigm), may represent another door to the uncertainty of the individual labor rights, which, due to the redistributive nature, leading onto the accomplishment of an element of public concern: the promotion of social justice. Even taking this warning into account and without losing sight of it, we set as a research hypothesis the failure of the labor justice system with regard to the mechanisms which are capable to promote self-conciliation (especially in meta-juridical conflicts), and without neglect, at the same time, to the redistributive role of the labor law and the peculiarities of their relation. From this point onwards, we investigate possibilities for improving what we call hybrid system of conflict management and, consequently, the cooperative conflict management culture. To this end, this study relied on two steps: a theoretical one and a practical one. On the theoretical stage of the research, we present the theories and rules about the non-adversarial means of solving conflicts, the features and functions of labor rights in the Democratic State of Law, the current Labor Justice System, as well as the main controversies involved in this matter. Regarding the practical stage of the research, we tested a non-adversarial procedure with specific traits in comparison to the ones regulated in Brazil, and we seek to integrate the perspective of the parties themselves to its evaluation, through the investigation of motivation and opinion. Once the data were collected through questionnaires, and interpreted in the light of the theoretical research, we formulate inferences and proceeded hypothesis-setting proposition stage of the study. At this juncture, we suggest parameters for the systematization of a conciliating mechanism to the Labor Courts, which we define as facilitating orientation guidance meeting. This mechanism, simultaneously inspired in mediation, conciliation and neutral thirdparty intervention (so not quite original, we consent) is suggested for the preferential treatment of conflicts of meta-juridical marked nature (common in contracts characterized by greater proximity between employer and employee, such as domestic bond and the one established at small businesses), for which we have detected the greatest need for improvement of the Labor Justice System.

[pt] O trabalho enfoca a relação entre linguagem e Direito, apontando o distanciamento entre a linguagem legal e a linguagem do homem médio. Tendo por base o estudo comparativo de segmentos do Código Civil brasileiro de 1916 e de 2002, relativamente ao Direito das Sucessões, analisam-se questões pertinentes à estruturação sintática, à utilização vocabular e à presença de ambigüidades estruturais. Busca-se, assim, identificar os principais fatores responsáveis pelas dificuldades enfrentadas pelo homem médio ao interpretar textos legais. O estudo, valendo-se de uma pesquisa realizada junto a informantes, constata que houve um certo progresso quanto à linguagem adotada no Código Civil de 2002, em face à do de 1916. Aponta, contudo, que o progresso realizado está muito aquém do desejável, dado que, na virtual totalidade dos casos, alternativas de redação propostas pela autora foram preferidas às correlatamente encontradas no Código de 2002. A pesquisa volta-se, também, para a identificação de marcas lingüísticas evidenciadoras de mudanças axiológicas ocorridas na sociedade brasileira desde a promulgação do Código de 1916, e refletidas no de 2002. A dissertação discute as relações entre linguagem e poder e destaca a perversidade da coexistência da ficção, juridicamente necessária, de que a ninguém é dado escusar- se de cumprir a lei alegando o seu desconhecimento com a perpetuação de uma linguagem jurídica obscura e proliferação irrefreada de leis. Defende, assim, a adoção de uma linguagem jurídica que, ao invés de afastar o homem médio do conhecimento de seus direitos e deveres em face da sociedade, se torne um meio propiciador desse conhecimento. / [en] This work focuses on the relation between language and Law, pointing out the distance that prevails between legal language and the language of the common man. By comparing segments of the Brazilian Civil Code of 1916 with those of the Civil Code of 2002, in regard to Successions Law, issues concerning syntactic structure, use of vocabulary and the presence of structural ambiguities are analyzed. The identification of the main factors responsible for the difficulties faced by the common man in interpreting legal texts is also pursued. By means of an empirical research undertaken with informants, the study establishes that there has been a certain degree of progress, language- wise, in what concerns the Civil Code of 2002, as compared to that of 1916. However, it points out that the degree of progress that has been achieved is far less considerable than that which would be desirable, since, in virtually all cases, the alternative linguistic formulations proposed by the author were preferred over their parallel formulations found in the Civil Code of 2002. The research also provides the identification of linguistic traces which signal axiological changes that have taken place in Brazilian society since the promulgation of the 1916 Code, and which are reflected in that of 2002.The thesis discusses the relation between language and power and calls attention to the perversity of the coexistence of the necessary juridical fiction that no one can be excused of abiding to the law by claiming to ignore it with the perpetuation of an obscure juridical language and the unrestrained proliferation of laws. It thus recommends the adoption of a juridical language that instead of deterring the common man from finding out what his rights and his responsibilities in face of society are, transforms itself in a means of favoring such knowledge.
