The Effectiveness of Sexual Harassment Law in Chile: From Theory to PracticeCasas Becerra, Lidia January 2016 (has links)
This study examines the theoretical framework underlying Chilean legislation on sexual harassment in the workplace, notably to determine if the legislation has succeeded in uncovering and addressing the gender injustice and inequality involved in sexual harassment.
This study further reviews whether the legislation adopted in 2005 is meeting its intended goal of protecting targets from harm by providing effective relief, penalizing perpetrators, and promoting adequate labour relations and climate.
A combination of research methods were employed, notably a review of the legal scholarship, of Chile’s regulatory framework for sexual harassment, and of administrative and court system jurisprudence involving targets and perpetrators from the period prior to the enactment of the legislation in March 2005 through to October 2014. Quantitative sexual harassment data were drawn from a nationwide household survey conducted in 2011 by Proyecto Araucaria (“Research, Policy and Practice With Regard to Work-Related Mental Health Problems in Chile: A Gender Perspective”) The study also included interviews with key informants and focus groups with female workers.
This study concludes that the debate between the equality versus protection of personal dignity paradigms is an abstract discussion not reflected in the practices of justice system actors, and that for the law to be effective, a sociopolitical and legal context facilitating recourse to it is required. Rather than considering only the formal resort to the relief provided in the law, it is crucial to examine the actual practices of individuals seeking to advance the protection of their rights.

Vaikams su negalia saugios aplinkos kūrimo teisinio reguliavimo veiksmingumas / The Effectiveness of Legal Regulation of Creation of Safe Environment for Children with DisabilitiesLaureckienė, Žaneta 25 February 2010 (has links)
Magistro darbe nagrinėjamas vaikams su negalia saugios aplinkos teisinio reglamentavimo veiksmingumas. Saugios aplinkos sukūrimas vaikams turintiems negalią Lietuvoje XXI amžiaus pradžioje įžengia į naują kokybinį raidos etapą. Saugi aplinka vaikams su negalia turi būti neatskiriamas nuo mokymo įstaigų, nes šiose įstaigose vaikai ir jaunimas praleidžia didžiąją dalį laiko. Todėl neįgaliųjų vaikų socialinės integracinės politikos svarbiausioji dalis turi apimti formalųjį ikimokyklinį, pradinį, vidurinį, profesinį bei aukštąjį išsilavinimą. Kokybiškų švietimo paslaugų specialiųjų poreikių vaikams ir jaunimui, besiugdantiems drauge su bendraamžiais vieningoje švietimo sistemoje, teikimo užtikrinimas nėra vienalaikis (politiniai lozungai, deklaratyvios teisinės nuostatos, visuomenės narių pasisakymai, teigiami pavyzdžiai ir t.t.), bet sudėtingas, ilgai trunkantis procesas, ne tik reikalaujantis konstruktyvių ir koordinuotų valstybės valdymo ir švietimą administruojančių bei jam talkinančių institucijų veiksmų, bet ir pačios visuomenės sąmoningumo.
Lietuvos teisės sistema ir teisės doktrina iš esmės suteikia pakankamai teisinių priemonių apsaugoti neįgaliųjų vaikų ir paauglių teises mokymo įstaigose, tačiau egzistuoja norminio reglamentavimo, teisės normų įgyvendinimo praktikoje neatitikimas. Lietuvos teisinėje sistemoje minėta situacija gali būti detaliau atskleista išskiriant šias problemas susijusias su negalią turintiems vaikams saugios aplinkos kūrimu, mokymo įstaigose...

Creation of a safe environment for children with disabilities in Lithuania is entering a new qualitative stage of development of twenty-first century. A safe environment for children with disabilities must be inseparable from the educational institutions because in these institutions children and young people spend most of the time. Therefore, the disabled children's social integration policy must cover the most important part of formal pre-school, primary, secondary, vocational and higher education. Quality education services for children with special needs and young people, studying together with their peers within a single system of education, the provision of protection is not simultaneous (political slogan, declaratory legal provisions, members of the public speeches, the positive examples, etc.), but complex, lengthy process, requiring not only a constructive and coordinate the public administration and education in managing and assisting the authorities of his actions, but also the public awareness.
Lithuanian’s legal system and legal doctrine in principle provide sufficient legal instruments to protect disabled children and adolescents in educational establishments, but there is prescriptive regulatory, legal norms practice non-compliance. Lithuanian legal system, said the situation may be disclosed in more detail distinguishing these problems associated... [to full text]

The Law BusinessmanTM : Five Essays on Legal Self-efficacy and Business RiskJörgensen, Fredrik January 2013 (has links)
The thesis challenges the notion of effectiveness of law as being based on the formal institutions of courts, law enforcement and written law. It argues that the best way to measure the effectiveness of law is the legal self-efficacy of laymen who are the end users of law. It presents a new perspective on the effectiveness of law. It turns the traditional perspective of studying the effects of legal institutions around and instead studies the effect of how individuals perceive their own ability to use law. This self-reflexive ability - legal self-efficacy - is the answer to the question “How comfortable are with communicating with legal terminology?”. The thesis makes several comparisons using the traditional perspective and legal self-efficacy and finds that legal self-efficacy is a better measure of legal effectiveness. This thesis analyzes 246 businesspeople in Russia and their risk behavior with regards to economic transactions in relation to legal self-efficacy. The theory behind legal self-efficacy is a combination of Luhmann’s theory of law as communication and Bandura’s concept of self-efficacy. The first paper applies the traditional approach. It analyzes the effect of legal efficiency on leverage and debt maturity for listed and non-listed companies. The second paper is describes the conceptual foundation of the legal effectiveness based on the individual. The third paper compares the effect of private order (including legal self-efficacy) and public order institutions on the granting of trade credit. The fourth paper analyzes the impact of legal self-efficacy and formal legal institutions on sanctions against clients in a comparative perspective. The final paper seeks out possible sources of legal self-efficacy. Legal self-efficacy can be used to better understand the interaction of individuals and law including such fields of research as behavioral accounting, behavioral law and finance, legal sociology and legal studies.
