The Right

I defend the right to an abortion at any stage of pregnancy by drawing on a Kantian account of consent and innate right. I examine how pregnant women are positioned in moral and legal debates about abortion, and develop a Kanitan account of bodily autonomy in order to pregnant women’s epistemic authority over the experience of pregnancy. Second, I show how Kant's distinction between innate and private right offers an excellent legal framework for embodied rights, including abortion and sexual consent, and I draw on the legal definition of sexual consent in order to show how abortion discourse undermines women's innate right. I then explore Kant’s treatment of the infanticidal mother, and draw out the parallels between this case and contemporary abortion rights in order to develop a distinctly Kantian framework of reproductive rights in non-ideal conditions. Finally, I explore the implications of this non-ideal approach for contemporary abortion discourse, arguing that debates about the legality of abortion should more broadly engage the barbaric conditions of reproductive injustice.

The purpose of the work is to identify and use an analogy to elaborate permissible variants of the legal qualification of the ridesharing relationships in the civil law structures. The peculiarity of this work was that the methods of analogy and legal modeling acted simultaneously as both methods and objects of study. The result is that there is a gap in the civil law identification of ridesharing agreements, and analogic uses of existing civil law material are proposed to overcome it. The significance of the work is manifested in its ability to help ensure greater contractual freedom and variability of economic activity, accelerate the integration of ridesharing into the Russian legal framework and improve the efficiency of the civil circulation. At the same time, the study highlights the potential of methods of analogy and legal modeling in the adequate legal regulation of changing ways of providing and consuming transportation services in the digitalization of economic processes.

The chapter presents a conflict of interest as a new pioneering measure for combating corruption and abuse of public power. The study is based on an analysis of the conflict of interest legislations of about 15 European countries. European legislators' legislative decisions on several key criteria relating to conflict of interest have been analyzed. These criteria include the presence or absence of a special law, conflict of interest as a criminal or administrative offense, accountable persons, legal definition, prohibitions, competent authorities and procedures for ascertaining conflict of interest, sanctions, etc. A scientific definition of conflict of interest has also been proposed based on the characteristics of the phenomenon derived from the analysis of the national legislation in force on the European continent. The chapter also outlines the direction in which the phenomenon may develop in national legislations and includes examples of interesting cases of conflict of interest which have arisen in different European countries.

Actually, basic needs postulates securing of the elementary conditions of existence to every human being. Despite of the practical and theoretical importance of the subject the greatest irony is non- availability of any universal preliminary definition of the concept of basic needs. Moreover, this becomes the reason for unpredictability of various political programmes aiming at providing basic needs to the people. The shift is necessary for development of this or any other conception. No labour reforms could be made in history till labours were treated as objects. Its only after they were started being treating as subjects, labour unions were allowed to represent themselves in strategy formulations that labour reforms could become a reality. The present research paper highlights the basic needs of Human Rights in life.
