Ads by Google      WHAT IS PEACE? CONCEPTS, QUALITIES, AND SOCIAL CONTRACT Each social contract is a specific peace within a particular conflict helix; each may have within it lower-level conflict (for example, a state within a region of international peace may suffer internal guerrilla war and terrorism); each peace may exist within an ongoing, antagonistic conflict (as internally peaceful states engage in war). In the dimension of coerciveness, the parties to social contract may voluntarily accept it, or one or more parties may be coerced into it, either by other parties to the contract or by a third party, such as in a shotgun wedding or governmentally imposed, union-management contract. Collective contracts also may emerge from the interwoven, multilayered, bilateral and multilateral social contracts crisscrossing a society. http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/TJP.CHAP2.HTM   (9383 words)      Rousseau's The Social Contract Rousseau’s basic argument for the social contract is also self-contradictory, in that he argues that natural liberty is in conflict with civil liberty. As a result of the social contract, civil laws are decided by a majority vote of the magistrates who are elected to represent the people. The terms of the contract provide assurance that civil laws promote the public good rather than the private good of particular individuals or groups. http://www.angelfire.com/md2/timewarp/rousseau.html   (1807 words)      Blue Cross Contract Any provision of this Contract which, on its Effective Date or anytime thereafter, is in conflict with the statutes of the State of Florida, or Federal law, is hereby amended to conform to the minimum requirements of such statutes.

Chapter 1: Social Roots, Complexity and Never Ending Process of Interpretation of GPL Social contract theory is the view that morality is founded solely on uniform social agreements that serve the best interests of those who make the agreement. This chapter discuss social dynamics and social perception of the licenses only, and we will purposely avoid the intricate legal aspects of the interaction of GPL with the current copyright and intellectual property law. The GPL,[24] also known as the copyleft, uses copyright, to paraphrase Toby Milsom, to counterfeit the phenomena of anarchism. http://www.softpanorama.org/Copyright/License_classification/social_roots_of_GPL.shtml   (15883 words)      Sampson Synergetics: Freedom of Contract However, the conflict may instead be about the context and even the morality of the contract rather than merely the facts as they relate to the content of the contract. A contract is not an objective absolute, and neither is either party's consent to the contract. It is all too common for one party, backed by significant legal resources, to write up a dense, lengthy contract such that the other party's only understanding of the contract comes from the first party's verbal assurances rather than the text of the contract itself. http://www.sampsonsynergetics.org/freedom-of-contract.html   (15883 words)      ICMJE - Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals Editors of medical journals should have a contract that clearly states the editor’s rights and duties in addition to the general terms of the appointment and that defines mechanisms for resolving conflict.

(St. Paul) State Representative Philip Krinkie (R-Shoreview) called the Federal Transit Administration's finding that a conflict-of-interest existed with a $32 million light rail transit contract disturbing, but not surprising.

The bureau has no internal process in place for analyzing the costs of change orders presented by the contract professional for accuracy or reasonableness or for verifying that the change order is not already a part of the original contract.

Most leading experts on private international law almost unanimously acknowledge today that the principle of renvoi could not be applied to choice of law in contract(58), widely known as the principle of an exclusion of renvoi. One of the difficult problems in the proper law of contract is to decide whether the parties are able to choose more than one system of rules of law applied to the same contract. http://www.thailawforum.com/articles/choiceoflaw3.html   (1380 words)      saf.html Where the parties have not made a choice of law, it would not be reasonable for a court to apply a particular law simply because that law is considered by the applicable law as identified by the conflict rules of the lex fori, to be the proper law of the contract. [22] Logically, since the provision is a rule of the lex fori and it identifies which law, or rather which set of rules, will be applied to such a contract, the provision performs the task of a conflict rule and not that of a rule of substantive law. [225] states that the lex contractus is the applicable law of the consequences of nullity of the contract. http://www.cisg.law.pace.edu/cisg/biblio/saf.html   (1380 words)      CITT - Procurement - Determinations - DR. JOHN C. LUIK Further, the Department argued that the judicial disapproval of the “appearance of conflict of appearance alone” in the legal profession was applicable in the circumstances and justified the application of conflict of interest precautions to the contract at issue. The Department indicated, first, that the complaint concerns a sole source procurement by itself, as well as a contract between Health Canada and Dr. Liefeld, and that, in preparing the GIR, the Department consulted extensively with Health Canada. In addition, the Department submitted that Dr. Luik’s suggestion that the award of the sole source contract to Dr. Liefeld is equivalent to having “been adjudged before his peers to be unfit to do work in his own country” has no merit. http://www.citt.gc.ca/procure/determin/pr99035_e.asp   (1380 words)      Gale Encyclopedia of Psychology: Peer mediation Agreement-The mediator writes a contract using the solutions to which both parties agree, and everyone signs it.
