The famous 14th-century jurist Bartolus de Saxoferrato addressed the issues of tyranny at various points in his prolific scientific career, both in his commentary to the Corpus iuris civilis and in the public law treatises De regimine civitatis and De Guelfis et Gebellinis, where the theme of resistance against a tyrant was developed, whereas the legal theory of tyranny was comprehensively presented by him in the treatise De tyranno. The subject of the article is the analysis of the concepts of tyrant and tyrannical rule in Bartolus’ works.

Chapter 3, after describing general principles of international law and the relationship between international law and domestic law, focuses on the hitherto neglected subject of private commercial law conventions. Textbooks on international law invariably focus on public law treaties. By contrast this chapter addresses issues relating to private law conventions. It goes through the typical structure of a private law convention, the interpretation of conventions and the treatment of errors, and the enforcement of private conventional rights against States. The subject of private law conventions and public law has become of increasing importance with the appearance in several private law instruments of provisions of a public law nature designed, for example, to ensure that creditors’ rights are not enforced in a manner that adversely affects the public interest or State security. Reservations and declarations are also discussed, together with the subject of conflicts between conventions.

There is no topic of present interest, involving as it does the status of men, women and children of various countries, and even of birth in the same country, as that of nationality. It bristles with difficulties! To begin with, various terms are used, apparently meant to mean one and the same thing, although unless they are carefully defined, they may refer to different aspects of the subject. For example, “ national” is used as a synonym for “ subject” or “ citizen,” yet one may be a national of a country, and subject to its jurisdiction, without, however, being a citizen—as in the case of the Filipinos, who are, indeed, subject to the Government of the United States and entitled to its protection abroad, although they are not citizens either in the sense of international, or of national law. Then there is a difference of opinion as to the branch of law to which the matter belongs—the Englishspeaking peoples regarding it as forming part of the public law of nations, whereas others consider it as more properly falling within the domain of private international law, to which, in turn, the English world gives the not inappropriate designation of conflict of laws.

The Supreme Court of Canada's advisory opinion inReference re Secession of Quebec, 1998(also known, more simply, as the “Quebec reference case”) has been the subject of much interpretation and comment, because of its obvious implications for the future of Canada.1However, it offers an arguably wider opportunity to consider the role of the judiciary within a liberal democracy. The professional nature of the legal process and its practitioners often has made legal and judicial institutions, to most of the public, distant and alien components of the political system. The technical aspects of many areas of law (such as contracts, torts, and civil procedure) may, in fact, make this area of public concern seem unapproachable to the average citizen; indeed, some legal practitioners may prefer that the law remain that way. That mystique often is transferred to the realm of constitutional law, where the use of technical terms (including Latin words and phrases) may serve, intentionally or not, to insulate legal arguments and proceedings from public scrutiny.2

The goal of this research consists in the analysis of conceptual and normative legal framework of the institutions of public law and municipal leadership, impact of the institution of leadership upon development of the forms of municipal democracy in the context of Russian and foreign experience, as well as peculiarities of the influence of the institution of public law leadership upon the forms of governance in territorial public self-government The subject of this research is the scientific views, normative legal framework of regulation, organizational practice of the institution of public law and municipal leadership in territorial public self-government in the context of functionality of the forms of municipal democracy. The article employs the formal legal and comparative analysis, methods of dialectics, municipal legal hermeneutics, communicative approach, and critical rationalism in legal studies, which allows viewing the municipal leadership as a complex interdisciplinary legal and administrative institution that assists the implementation of the forms of municipal democracy, and improves the effectiveness of the territorial self-government in cooperation with branches and officials of the local self-government. The following conclusions are made: the institution of public law leadership should be viewed as interdisciplinary, which incorporates the sphere of public law on the one hand, and the sphere of state and municipal administration on the other hand; the works of the Russian and foreign researchers indicate that the  concepts of transformational leadership, leadership-service and adaptive leadership can be analytically applied to the institution of municipal leadership; it is necessary to improve the institution of public law and municipal leadership, and ensure new spheres of juridification of the requirements for the heads of territorial self-government on the federal and municipal levels.

<p>Analysis of the incidence of the Statute of Introduction to the Rules of Brazilian Law (in the writing given by Act 13.655/2018) on the interpretation of public law rules: interpretative operations and general principles of administrative law</p><p> </p><p>O presente trabalho pretende analisar as inovações legislativas produzidas pela Lei nº 13.655/2018, bem como suas consequências jurídicas. Tal Diploma Legal modificou o Decreto-Lei nº 4.657/1942, denominado de “Lei de Introdução às Normas do Direito Brasileiro”. Para tanto, o trabalho se dividiu em seis eixos teóricos: primeiro se disserta sobre as modificações legais que traçam parâmetros interpretativos com foco no “consequencialismo” e o “realismo” da interpretação do direito público. Por conseguinte, analisam-se as disposições relativas à segurança jurídica. Em um terceiro plano, confere-se ênfase aos mecanismos legais que franqueiam maior participação e consenso entre a administração pública e o cidadão. Ainda, tratar-se-á de analisar a reponsabilidade das autoridades públicas e dos agentes que atuam na função consultiva. Também a eficiência administrativa será objeto de estudo, percebendo o que a legislação mencionada inovou no tema. Por fim, será demonstrado como a motivação das condutas administrativas, já merecedora da devida importância, dado seu status de princípio constitucional, restou ainda mais prestigiada pela Lei nº 13.655/2018. Analisar-se-á dissertativamente tal legislação, essencialmente em relação aos aspetos relativos à aplicação da Lei de Introdução às Normas do Direito Brasileiro (na redação dada pela Lei nº 13.655/2018) no que concerne à interpretação e aplicação de normas de direito público e, muito particularmente, ao modo como, nessas operações interpretativas, se enformam certos princípios gerais de direito administrativo, a fim de se perceber analiticamente as mudanças e potencialidades feitas pela edição da recente norma.</p><p> </p><p>The present work intends to analyze the legislative innovations produced by Legal Act nº 13.655/2018, as well as its legal consequences. This legislation modified Legal Act nº 4.657/1942, called “Statute of Introduction to the Rules of Brazilian Law”. In order to do so, the work was divided into six theoretical axes: first, it discusses the legal modifications that draw interpretive parameters with a focus on “consequentialism” and the “realism” of the interpretation of Public Law. Consequently, the provisions on legal certainty are examined. In a third plan, emphasis is placed on the legal mechanisms that lead to greater participation and consensus between the Public Administration and the citizen. Also, it will be a question of analyzing the responsibility of the public authorities and of the agents that act in the advices function. Also the administrative efficiency will be object of study, realizing what the mentioned legislation innovated in the subject. Finally, it will be demonstrated how the motivation of administrative conduct, already deserving of due importance, given its status as a constitutional principle, remained even more prestigious under Legal Act nº 13.655/2018. Such legislation will be analyzed, essentially in relation to the aspects related to the incidence of the Statute of Introduction to the Rules of Brazilian Law (in the wording given by Legal act nº 13.655/2018) regarding the interpretation of norms of Law Public and, in particular, to the way in which, in these interpretative operations, certain general principles of Administrative Law are formed, in order to understand analytically the changes and potentialities made by the edition of the recent norm.</p>

AbstractGeneral questions of name of the state are rarely discussed in the literature of public law, political science or legal theory, its terminology is neglected, and in its current state, it is a source of many misunderstandings. Pointed out these terminological problems this study proposes a theoretical framework for the naming system of states which takes into accounts the public law components of names. Among these components the significance of four factors are emphasized: the form of state (form of government), the structure, or organization of state, the role of seemingly neutral terms (for example, the words “commonwealth” or “state”), and, on the contrary, the role of politically, religiously or ethnically bound terms (such as “democratic”, “people’s”, “Arab” or “Islamic”) in the names of states. After clarifying the difference between the terms country name and state name (state title), this study shows that there are cases when the state name (state title) function as country name, and when the country name fulfills the communicative function of the state title.

Company, bankruptcy and the law on takeover of joint stock companies, by regulating the duties (obligations - debtor of the obligation) of members of the management of the public joint stock company (first of all), do not have the same approach in determining the subject of protection to which there is a prescribed duty (creditor of the prescribed obligation). On the other hand, the regulation of this issue is not uniform in the relevant comparative laws of these branches of law, both at the level of legal ("hard") law as well as at the level of autonomous ("soft") law. In this paper, the author seeks, first of all, to determine the dominant position of comparative regulations regarding the determination of the subject of law (the subject of protection) of the prescribed duty of the management of a company, as well as the reasons for such determination. The author takes the position, based on the appropriate argumentation that in the company law the subject of protection is a joint stock company (company as a legal entity), in the bankruptcy law it is an unsecured creditor while in the takeover law it is a shareholder. Since there is no unique position on these issues in legal theory, legislation and jurisprudence, the author refers to this situation as a kind of "Bermuda triangle".

The author analyzes doctrinal legal thinking in the context of ontological characteristics of thinking the object of metasubject research in the field of cognitive psychology, physiology of thinking and other areas of modern science and, above all, in philosophy. As a result, problematizes the resources of doctrinal legal thinking in the process of producing new true knowledge, organized in the form of private legal theory, the indicators of which correlate the criteria of epistemology. Attention is drawn to the fact that in the process of developing private legal theories, which feeds the General legal theory, at the initial stage, of course, it is important to use the experience accumulated within a certain doctrine. Nevertheless, the limitation of the doctrinal legal worldview is noted. The author sees it in the fact that the doctrinal legal worldview (paradigm) is not able to ensure the transition to a qualitatively new knowledge according to the epistemological Maxim: from the old knowledge, the new is fundamentally not deducible. In this regard, the author substantiates the heuristic possibilities of a complex methodology. It is a complex, contextual methodology that allows, firstly, to obtain a qualitatively new knowledge about the object of a private theory; and, secondly, a complex methodology allows us to count on the fact that the knowledge obtained as a personal knowledge thanks to the subject of the study, legal and related state reality are able to be expressed and framed in lexical constructions the knowledge obtained, nevertheless, meets the criterion of objectivity. An illustrative example is the private theory of public law status, which is characterized in the context of epistemological criteria, namely: object, subject, empirical and regulatory framework, philosophical and ideological grounds and, of course, complex methodology.
