Resumen En la actualidad la responsabilidad civil ha sido objeto de grandes avances e importantes desarrollos respecto de su aplicabilidad. Uno de las materias de las que ya se puede comenzar a hablar, o al menos discutir, es sobre la responsabilidad civil en el ámbito de la familia y particularmente en la relación conyugal. En ese sentido, este trabajo pretende ser un aporte a la discusión actual sobre la aplicación de las normas de la responsabilidad civil por incumplimiento de deberes matrimoniales e intentar mostrar al lector cómo podría operar ésta, ya sea aplicando un régimen contractual o extracontractual. Las interpretaciones sobre cómo se entiende el matrimonio, los principios rectores del derecho de familia y del derecho civil en general, serán los elementos determinantes para llegar a una conclusión que no cierra la discusión, sino que genera un espacio de reflexión y cuestionamiento. Palabras clave: Matrimonio, deber conyugal, responsabilidad, indemnización.   BREACH OF MARITAL DUTIES AND INDEMNITY ACTIONS: AN ANALYSIS OF ITS APPLICABILITY Abstract Nowadays the Civil Liability has been object of the greatest changes and important developments regarding its application. One of the subjects we can refer to or at least discuss, is Civil Liability in the ambit of the family and particularly the conjugal relationship. That is how this work intends to be a contribution to the present discussion regarding the application of rules of Civil Liability for the breach of marital duties, and also intends to show the reader how this could operate, either using a contract law or tort law. The interpretations of how marriage is understood, the guiding principles of family law and of civil law in general, will be the determinant elements to get to a conclusion that does not close the discussion, but creates a space for reflection and questioning. Key words: marriage, marital duty, liability, compensation.

ResumenLa idea de que los incapaces absolutos no tienen voluntad no es acorde a la realidad natural de los seres humanos, y por tanto no debe seguir siendo invocada por los juristas chilenos. Sólo los bebés y los que han caído en comao tienen una patología enajenante severa carecen de una voluntad denida. Los demás sí tienen, sólo que el derecho no considera tales voluntades como sucientes para obligarse. Por otro lado, es poco congruente que no se reconozca voluntad en un área de nuestro derecho civil (materia contractual) y sí en otras (materia extracontractual).Palabras clave: Voluntad; Niños; Capacidad; Demente; Derecho civil.AbstractThe notion that persons with absolute incapacity have no will is not accordance with the natural reality of human beings, and therefore should no longer be relied upon by the Chilean jurists. Only babies and those who have fallen in coma or have a severe alienating pathology lack a denite will. Others have it, only that the law does not consider those wills as sucient to obligate oneself. Moreover, it is incongruous that such will is not recognized in some areas of our civil law (contract law) while it is in others (tort law). Keywords: Will; Children; Legal capacity; Insane person; Civil law.

In this article, the author analyses the burden of proof in determination of fault-based liability. The main focus is placed on the first prerequisite of civil liability – fault, which can be defined as non-compliance of the factual conduct with the required standard of care (in form of negligence or intent). Currently, the aspect of burden of proof regarding fault is quite unclear in Latvian private law. Therefore, in this article the author answers the fundamental question: which party has the legal duty to prove the prerequisite “fault” (or its absence) according to the Civil Law? Additionally, the author will also outline the peculiarities of burden of proof in both tort law and contract law.

The common law has solved questions of liability arising in the context of precontractual negotiations by resort to a range of different doctrines and approaches, adopting in effect ‘piecemeal’ solutions to questions of precontractual liability. Consequently, debate has arisen as to how best to classify or categorise claims for precontractual work and as to which doctrines are best suited to solving problems arising from anticipated contracts. The purpose of this article is to consider this question of how best to classify (cases of) precontractual liability. The initial focus will be on the ongoing debate as to whether principles of contract law or principles of unjust enrichment can better solve problems of precontractual liability. I will be suggesting that unjust enrichment theory offers little by way of explanation of cases of precontractual liability and, indeed, draws on principles of contract law in determining questions of liability for precontractual services rendered, though it does so by formulating those principles under different guises. Irrespective, however, of the doctrines utilised by the common law to impose liability, it is possible to identify a number of common elements unifying all cases of precontractual liability. In identifying such common elements of liability, it is necessary to draw on principles of both contract and tort law. How, then, should cases of precontractual liability best be classified? A consideration of the issue of classification of precontractual liability from a perspective of German civil law will demonstrate that a better understanding of cases of precontractual liability will be gained by classifying such cases as lying between the existing categories of contract and tort.

The author studies the place of the family in the structure of family relations. The correlation between civil law and family law in Soviet, Russian and Tajik legal science is considered. According to the author, the family is a social unit of society with the help of which people seek to solve demographic, economic and cultural issues. It is stated that the family is an alliance of persons created on the marriage, kinship, birth and adoption of children, as well as their upbringing. Accordingly, such alliance leads to the development of certain personal non-property and property rights and obligations based not only on mutual interests and concerns, but primarily on the related ties. In this regard, it seems logical that the specific nature of these rights and obligations requires the use of special tools for legal regulation; the content of legal relations arising on their basis is considered to be independent family relations.

¿Qué grandes conquistas ha hecho el hombre? Posee el fuego, pero no ha podido escapar a su furia... Domestica las plantas, pero no ha logrado saciar su hambre... Levanta ciudades, pero ha caí­do en las calles... Construye máquinas, pero ha destruido la naturaleza... Tiende puentes, pero ha quedado incomunicado... Explora el espacio, pero no se conoce.... Prolonga su vida, pero está solo... Enciende luces en las noches, pero está ciego...   Alberto Morales Damián   Resumen:   La  paz  más  que  un  valor  buscado  por  el  ser  humano  es  una  situación anhelada en la humanidad, sin embargo el hombre actual no muestra claridad en sus pasos hacia este anhelo, lo que circunda en muchos espacios son guerras en paí­ses y comunidades, busca de poderí­o en la polí­tica, corrupción y manipulación en los gobiernos, acceso insuficiente en la educación, desvinculación en la familia y sin sentido en muchos hombres.   En este artí­culo se analiza el concepto de paz y se proponen, desde el ámbito axiológico  y educativo,  herramientas  que  permitan  ir  a  su  encuentro.  El objetivo del mismo es, ante la realidad caótica, perfilar el establecimiento de diferentes acepciones de lo que es la paz y distinguirlo del proceso de valoración que sigue el ser humanos para asumir alguna de estas concepciones.   Se   persigue   aclarar   que   varios   referentes   asumidos socialmente, más que valores son normas o reglas bajo las cuales se  juzga el entorno. En esta disertación se propone la educación como el medio que puede atender la urgencia de justicia, de paz y de comprensión en nuestras sociedades.             Abstract   The value peace more than sought by the human being is a desired situation in humanity, but the modern man does not show clearly on his way to this desire, which in many surrounding areas are wars in countries and communities,   seeking   power in   politics,   corruption   and   government manipulation, insufficient access to education, disengagement in the family and meaningless in many men.   This article discusses the concept of peace and proposes, from within the axiological and educational tools to go to meet him. The objective is, given the chaotic reality, outline the establishment of different meanings of what peace is and distinguish it from the valuation process that follows the human being to  take  any  of  these  conceptions. It  is  intended  to  clarify  several references  made  socially  rather  than  values  are  standards  or  rules  under which judges the environment. In this dissertation proposes education as the medium that can meet the urgent need for justice, peace and understanding in our societies.     Palabras clave: Paz, valor, valoración, jerarquí­a, educación     Key Words: Paz, value, assessment, hierarchy, education   Doctora en Educación, Maestra en Educación Familiar, Licenciada en Filosofí­a.

This chapter considers the civil law remedies which are designed to protect a victim from domestic violence. The two primary protective orders under Part IV of the Family Law Act (FLA) 1996 are the non-molestation order and the occupation order which can be applied for and obtained in conjunction with each other, or separately. The chapter also discusses the fact that the occupation order can also be used to regulate occupation of the family home in non-violent situations when a dispute arises between family members about who is entitled to occupy the home, and on what basis.
