Jokaisella vanhuksella on Suomessa yksilöllinen, viime kädessä perustuslaissa taattu, oikeus riittävään hoivaan ja huolenpitoon. Silti tämä oikeus on usein käytännössä riippuvainen siitä, onko vanhalla ihmisellä omaisia tukenaan. Tässä artikkelissa tarkastellaan sitä, miten oikeus hoivaan ja hoitoon taataan lainsäädännössä. Omaisilla ei lain mukaan ole vastuuta hoivan järjestämisestä, mutta silti lainsäädäntö monessa kohdin ikään kuin olettaa omaisten olevan vanhuksen tukena. Vaikka omaiset usein ovatkin tukena, miten perusoikeus hoivaan ja huolenpitoon toteutuu niillä vanhuksilla, joilla ei ole omaisia? Artikkeli nostaa vakavimpana omaisolettaman riskinä esiin ne vanhukset, joilla on omaisia, mutta joiden omaiset eivät osaa tai halua auttaa. Right to care and presumption of family and friends in the Finnish legislation According to Finnish legislation the public authorities must guarantee adequate social, health and medical services for those old persons who cannot obtain means necessary for a life of dignity. Yet in practice this right to receive indispensable subsistence and care often depends on the fact whether the old person happens to have family or friends to help her or him. As if the legislation supposes there are friends and family to help, even though, according to Finnish law, family members do not have legal responsibility to take care of an elderly person. This article elaborates how the right to care is guaranteed in Finnish legislation and what the law says about the responsibilities of the family. Even though most of the relatives do help their elderlies, how is the right to care fulfilled for those old persons who do not have family? Perhaps the elderlies who have family and friends, which do not help or do not know how to, are in the most vulnerable situation.

The Impact

The Right to Information Act 2005 was passed by the UPA (United Progressive Alliance) Government with a sense of pride. It flaunted the Act as a milestone in India’s democratic journey. It is five years since the RTI was passed; the performance on the implementation frontis far from perfect. Consequently, the impact on the attitude, mindset and behaviour patterns of the public authorities and the people is not as it was expected to be. Most of the people are still not aware of their newly acquired power. Among those who are aware, a major chunk either does not know how to wield it or lacks the guts and gumption to invoke the RTI. A little more stimulation by the Government, NGOs and other enlightened and empowered citizens can augment the benefits of this Act manifold. RTI will help not only in mitigating corruption in public life but also in alleviating poverty- the two monstrous maladies of India.

PurposeThe purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of patients with aphasia, their family members, and physicians related to communication during medical interactions.MethodFace-to-face, semistructured interviews were conducted with 18 participants—6 patients with aphasia, 6 family members involved in patient care, and 6 practicing physicians. A qualitative description approach was used to collect and summarize narratives from participants' perspectives and experiences. Participants were asked about experiences with communication during medical interactions in which the family member accompanied the patient. Interviews were audio- and/or video-recorded, transcribed, and then coded to identify main themes.ResultsPatients and family members generally described their communication experiences as positive, yet all participants discussed challenges and frustrations. Three themes emerged: (a) patients and family members work as a team, (b) patients and family members want physicians to “just try” to communicate with the patient, and (c) physicians want to interact with patients but may not know how.ConclusionsParticipants discussed the need for successful accommodation, or changing how one communicates, to help facilitate the patients' increased understanding and ability to express themselves. Over- and underaccommodation with communication were commonly reported as problems. Speech-language pathologists have a role to play in helping to improve communication during medical interactions. Implications for current speech-language pathologist practice and future directions of research are discussed.

Purpose This study aims to assess the awareness about the rights of people with mental illness in the main psychiatric hospital in Tunisia among the service users, the family members and the staff. Design/methodology/approach The Convention of Rights of People with Disabilities mandates that State Parties initiate and maintain campaigns and human rights training to promote understanding of the rights of people with mental illnesses, considered as a main factor for their fulfillment. Service users, family members and staff evaluated, through a survey, the importance of ten rights for persons with mental illness, stated in the convention. Findings Disparities were found in the perception of the different rights by and between the three groups. The highest levels of awareness were associated with the freedom from torture or degrading treatment and the right to live with dignity and respect, whereas the lower importance were assigned to the right to participation in recovery plans, to give consent and to exercise legal capacity. Originality/value The lack of awareness and the poor perception of rights of people with mental illness is one of the barriers to their achievement. More training and awareness raising is necessary.

General Adoption

The child is the mandate of the Grace Of God Almighty, and inside there is something that is attached as the dignity and status as a whole person. Along with the time on it right now is the mindset of society as it advances and growing, such as the parents who are unable to finance the future of the child and that’s why the purpose of adoption the child is not only to get the child but also for the welfare of children. And in Indonesia allow the implementation of the adoption by single parents, a woman or a man who is not married and who have been married but no longer bound in wedlock (widow or widower). Adoption of the child by single parents can only be done by the Citizens Of Indonesia after obtaining permission from ministers and the granting of permission can be ordered to agencies in the province. Adoption by single parents same thing with the adoption of children by parents in general. Adoption does not cause the relationship between children with real parents to be disconected, because most of the child who is in was from the family. Adoption of the child must be listed in a birth certificate, by not eliminate the identity of the beginning. Foster child are entitled to receive heir from the foster parents and also have the right heir from the real parents.

In the article considered guarantees of the right on access to ecological information fixed in international legal documents. Also made a research on state of implementation such international instruments in national Ukrainian legislation, separate legal instruments of realization the right to get ecological information. Made examples of successful defence of the broken right on access to ecological information. In order to exercise the right to information, it is important not only to have the norms enshrined in the legislation, but also the system of guarantees and opportunities for their implementation, which should be provided by public authorities. International legal documents establish only general approaches to the protection of rights, and their further development and consolidation is undoubtedly entrusted to national authorities. The analysis of the current national legislation allows to state that in general the international legal norms have found the reflection in national regulatory legal acts. However, over time, approaches to understanding environmental information, expanding its list, the subjects who have the right to receive it, so work in this direction should continue in order to increase the possibility of exercising the right of access to such information.

Permasalahan utama dalam penelitian ini adalah ketidaktepatan penjatuhan pidana oleh Hakim kepada pelaku dalam kasus pencurian dengan pemberatan pada Putusan Nomor 143/Pid.B/2015/PN.Dmk. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis faktor yang melatarbelakangi terjadinya pencurian dengan pemberatan dan pertimbangan Hakim dalam menjatuhkan pidana terhadap pelaku dalam Putusan Nomor 143/Pid.B/2015/PN.Dmk. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa faktor yang melatarbelakangi terjadinya tindak pidana pencurian dengan pemberatan dalam putusan Nomor 143/Pid.B/2015/PN.Dmk oleh AD sebagai pelaku turut serta melakukan pencurian dengan pemberatan yaitu disebabkan oleh faktor ekonomi karena ia merupakan tulang punggung keluarga dan harus memenuhi kebutuhan hidup baik untuk dirinya maupun keluarganya. Kemudian, oleh karena semua unsur dalam dakwaan primair telah terpenuhi, Hakim menjatuhkan pidana kepada pelaku dengan dakwaan kesatu yaitu pelaku melanggar Pasal 363 Ayat (1) Ke-3, Ke-4, dan Ke-5 KUHP. Hakim sudah tepat mengambil keputusan yaitu mengadili pelaku dengan tindak pidana pencurian dalam keadaan memberatkan akan tetapi hukuman yang dijatuhkan oleh Hakim sangatlah minim dan lebih rendah dari apa yang dituntut oleh Jaksa Penuntut Umum karena pelaku sebelum melakukan tindak pidana pencurian dengan pemberatan baru saja keluar dari Lembaga Pemasyarakatan (Lapas) dengan kasus Penggelapan dalam Putusan Nomor 133/Pid.B/2014/PN.Pti dan sudah pernah dihukum. Maka dari itu, hukuman yang diberikan kepada pelaku tidaklah sebanding dengan apa yang dilakukannya dan sebaiknya Hakim juga mempertimbangkan dampak dan kerugian yang ditimbulkan bagi korban akibat perbuatan pelaku.AbstractThe main problem in this research is the inaccuracy of the sentence handed down by the judge to the perpetrator of the robbery case weighing Decision Number 143/Pid.B/ 2015/PN.Dmk. This study aims to see and analyze the factors underlying the weighted actions and judges' considerations in imposing crimes against the perpetrators of Decision Number 143/Pid.B/2015/PN.Dmk. The results showed that the factors behind the occurrence of criminal acts of theft with weighting in the decision Number 143/Pid.B/2015/PN.Dmk by AD as the perpetrator participated in committing theft with weight, namely due to economic factors because he was the backbone of the family and had to meet the necessities of life both for himself and his family. Then, because all the elements in the primair indictment had been fulfilled, the Judge sentenced the perpetrator to the first charge, namely the perpetrator violating Article 363 Paragraph (1) 3rd, 4th, and 5th of the Criminal Code. The judge has made the right decision, namely trying the perpetrator with a criminal act of theft in burdensome circumstances, but the sentence handed down by the Judge is very minimal and lower than what is demanded by the Public Prosecutor because the perpetrator before committing the crime of theft with weight has just left the Penitentiary (Lapas) with embezzlement cases in Decision Number 133/Pid.B/2014/PN.Pti and have already been convicted. Therefore, the sentence given to the perpetrator is not proportional to what he has done and the judge should also consider the impact and harm caused to the victim as a result of the perpetrator's actions.

This chapter examines administrative accountability through the democratic pillar of public transparency. One of the pillars of democratic accountability is the availability of adequate information in the public domain about the functioning government. It has taken a social movement for transparency in government to establish people’s right to information through the passage of the Right to Information Act in 2005. However, traditional administration has not reconciled to its demands and PPPs are kept out of its purview on the plea that they are not public authorities. The Lok Pal (ombudsman) Bill has been passed in response to another struggle of civil society.

This chapter takes up the public narrative of ‘We, the multitude of Europe’, which suggests that the only hope for progressive change in the EU lies in a politics of disruption, and asks whether this idea can be defended based on a systematic model. To that end, it resorts to the political theory of destituent power, according to which opposition to or withdrawal from public authority can function as a legitimate trigger for constitutional change. Distinguishing between anti-juridical and juridical conceptions of destituent power, the chapter discusses to what extent the disruptive political strategies put forward by protest movements in the EU can be regarded as justifiable. Focusing on the juridical strand as the more plausible one, it argues that ideas of destituent power as ‘state civil disobedience’ run into a problem of authorization. By contrast, popular sovereignty-based approaches illuminate a neglected dimension of constituent power: the right to dismantle public authorities without the intention to create new ones. While such a model of destituent power in part captures the actions and demands of EU protest movements, it can only complement, not replace, the constructive side of constituent power.

La alimentación adecuada constituye un derecho humano. Así lo han reconocido oficialmente la gran mayoría de los Tratados Internacionales sobre derechos humanos. Pero existe una gran diferencia entre que un Estado reconozca oficialmente la alimentación como un derecho fundamental en su constitución, o lo haga como un principio rector, puesto que ello dotará al derecho a la alimentación adecuada de una mayor protección, o lo convertirá en un principio de actuación de los poderes públicos. Se puede exigir a los gobiernos garantizar el ejercicio efectivo del derecho a la alimentación de conformidad con las disposiciones constitucionales para otros derechos humanos. Pero, la capacidad de la invocación indirecta de otros derechos humanos para lograr la protección efectiva del derecho a la alimentación en el plano nacional dependerá, en definitiva, de la interpretación jurídica que se haga de la Constitución.Adequate food is a human right. Thus the vast majority of treaties have officially recognized it human rights. But there is a big difference between that a State officially recognizes food as a fundamental right in the Constitution, or do it as a guiding principle, since this will provide the right to adequate food of greater protection, or the It will become a principle of action of the public authorities. You may require Governments to ensuring the effective exercise of the right to food in accordance with the constitutional provisions for other human rights. But the indirect invocation of other human rights capacity to achieve effective protection of the right to food at the national level will depend, ultimately, of the legal interpretation that is made of the Constitution.
