As If

On December 11, 1847, the Journal des chemins de fer, founded and edited in Paris since 1842 by an Englishman, declared that the French rentes had fallen as much as if the government was about to be overthrown. The King, who was ill in body at the time, yet perfectly comfortable in mind, recovered, but on February 24, 1848, he and his government fell in a revolution that was as sudden and dramatic as it was triumphant. Among its leaders were Socialists, like Louis Blanc, who controlled a considerable body of workingmen, some of whom belonged to the building trades and the domestic industries of the capital, while others had been brought to Paris some years before to work on the fortifications. They were moved first to the barricades; then, after being victorious there, to the national workshops organized by Louis Blanc, now a member of the provisional government, who had proclaimed on behalf of the workingmen the “right to work,” as the most important organ of the workingmen, L'Atelier, had proclaimed the limitation of hours, the right to organize, and a minimum wage. These demands seem reasonable to us now, but they were thought dangerous then, not only by a majority of the provisional government, but also by the majority of the new legislature and of the French people.

Binding Power

Humans must work to maintain their survival, without working humans will not be able to maintain their lives well. Economic development is inseparable from the name of employment which covers all aspects of people's lives where labor and employers conduct a work relationship as an effort to meet the economic needs of the community. Work agreements between employers and workers cannot be separated from the discussion of the problem of the amount of wages and the method of payment. In accordance with Law No. 13 of 2003 concerning Manpower Article 88 paragraph (1), paragraph (2) and paragraph (3a), the government establishes wage policies to protect workers in order to obtain income that fulfills decent livelihoods for humanity, including through minimum wages. In this thesis the constituent focuses on releasing the right to wages made by workers / laborers with a joint agreement between the parties, which also discusses sanctions imposed on employers if the employer pays a wage under the minimum wage stipulated by the local governor. And the compilation target in this journal is whether the release of rights in a collective agreement has binding power in the implementation of Constitutional Court No 72 / PUU-XIII / 2015 decision, of course in legal corridors as stipulated in Law Number 13 of 2003 concerning Labor. Hopefully this journal can be a useful reading and add insight to its readers.

The Right

The Texas and California models have polarized over labor policy. Texas has been a national leader in promoting a free-market approach to the employer-employee relationship. Texans were early supporters of the “open shop” and advanced this policy by coining and promoting the term “right to work.” In addition, Texas has restricted public sector unionization and has dismissed most other elements of the labor agenda. By comparison, California is one of the nation’s most union-friendly states and the most assertive in regulating the workplace. California has been a leader in recognizing the right of groups to unionize and strike and in enacting workplace regulations that exceed federal minimums. For example, the state was among the first to adopt a $15 minimum wage. California also provides its public sector workers comparatively generous pay, pensions, and benefits. The chapter concludes by presenting basic trade-offs of the two models.

As If

The difference between what a man already owns, or property, and what he is only entitled to claim, or obligation, is fundamental. A debt represents what a man is entitled to claim, but because of its proximity to a claim in detinue and for other reasons to be hereafter discussed, it is for many purposes treated as if it were something that a man already owns. The owner of a debt may not help himself by seizing what he is owed and must, like the owner of any chose in action, implement his right with the cooperation of the debtor or else by resort to the courts. Nevertheless, he who owns a debt enjoys a peculiarly “strong” right. This strength derives in part from the “real” nature of the right; by virtue of this a creditor, such as a lender or an unpaid vendor, is treated in some respects almost as if he were already the owner of what is owed, in particular a lender as if he went on owning the money lent to the borrower. And even in cases where a debt does not originate in a real transaction (as, for instance, a judgment-debt or income tax owed to the government, in which cases the creditor has not previously given that, or the equivalent of that, which he now claims) it is still “strong” because the object in obligatione, viz. money or other fungibles, is “indestructible” and therefore a debt cannot be frustrated by impossibility.

Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) has been signed by Malaysian Government on 8 April 2008. It shows the desire and commitment of the Government of Malaysia to give recognition to the rights of People with Disabilities. The aim of this article is to review the rights to work for Persons with Disabilities under the Federal Constitution and Person with Disabilities Act 2008 in Malaysia. This study will use Legal studies as research methodology and it involved two types of method which is doctrine study of the law and socio-legal studies. The studies showed that the rights to work for PWDs in Malaysia stated as generally in the Federal Constitution and the rights has been detailed in Person With Disabilities Act 2008. The existence of the right to work exclusively under the Person With Disabilities Act 2008 makes those rights not only for normal people but it is also owned by the PWDs. However, the existence of legislation alone is not enough if followed by enforcement. Thus, the improvement in the law and its implementation should be further strengthened through several proposals suggested by this article. It is to ensure the rights of the PWDs to get the job be given serious attention by the community in line with the original purpose of Persons with Disabilities Act 2008 being created.

When the insurrection of February 1848 chased Louis-Philippe from the throne and brought a provisional republican government to power, the Parisian workers who had made the insurrection suddenly found themselves at the center of the political stage. As the heroes and victors of the revolution, they immediately won important concessions: the declaration of the right to work (the ‘droit au travail’), the opening of the National Workshops, and the establishment of the Luxembourg Commission—a body composed of representatives of all the capital's trades, chaired by the socialist theorist Louis Blanc, which was to discuss the organization of labor and make proposals to the government. The workers responded to this revolutionary situation with a monumental outpouring of words and action, attempting to construct a new social and political order based on labor and its rights. In this paper I shall try to describe and interpret one prominent feature of the workers' projects for revolutionary transformation: their use of language and of organizational forms that were apparently borrowed from the corporate system of the old regime.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the freedom to embrace religion and belief and fulfill the right to work in Indonesia. This type of research is normative legal research specifically discussing human rights in the field of religion and work. Regulation on the role and sanction for the government in the context of guaranteeing religious freedom, especially for Muslims, is very important. One form of legal vacuum in the regulation of religious freedom in Indonesia is in the context of the release of someone from Islam who aims to save humanity (of course also for other religions in Indonesia) and embrace other religions of his own free will. Regulations regarding the role and sanctions for the government in the context of guaranteed rights to obtain decent jobs, especially at productive age, are very important. Technically, it is clearly impossible for employers to recruit workers if there are no jobs in accordance with the capacity of the company's needs. From this, it can be said that the fulfillment of the right to work has a correlation with other types of rights so that a worker can have competence. The amount of unemployment that cannot be reduced by the Indonesian government and discriminatory treatment is a form of violation of the right to work.

As If

As challenging as I often found living in Kathmandu, my home base as I explored South Asia, I felt as if I had left a safe retreat and entered a maelstrom when I flew down to Delhi. By January of 2010 I had visited several times and had learned to negotiate the immense city to some extent. Still, the morning after I arrived, just the process of obtaining a SIM card for my phone sapped my energy. The tall man at the tiny general store near my guesthouse was quite pleasant. He apologized several times for all the forms I had to fill out to purchase a prepaid SIM card: the government was requiring even more documentation since the 2008 attacks in Mumbai. I had to go back to my room for a photo, then find a shop to make photocopies of my passport and visa. Then the store owner had to call the guesthouse owner, whom he knew, to vouch for me. I made a small mistake on one of the forms and had to start over. Yet this was only part of what taxed my equanimity. As I stood on the sidewalk at the shop counter negotiating the details, the store owner dexterously handled a couple of dozen other customers who crowded up on both sides and behind me to demand soap, toothpaste, recharge cards for their cell phones, potato chips, or little plastic pouches of milk. The man yelled for one of the boys who worked for him to bring a desired item from a shelf in back and bag it; he fanned through little stacks of recharge cards to find the right one for a customer; he took money and made change and still kept the process of my SIM card moving along, however slowly. Most of the other customers were yelling too, some of them quite close to my ear. I don’t understand much Hindi, but these were not angry exchanges. It was just business, just the pace of Delhi.
