Freedom Movement

The October Revolution of 1917 profoundly influenced the course of the Indian freedom movement in multiple ways. It gave impetus to Indian political aspirations, widened the base of the freedom struggle by making industrial workers and peasants active participants, and endowed the movement with a progressive outlook. The revolution’s principles resonated deeply among the people and leaders of the Indian freedom movement. In fact, many of the values enshrined in our Constitution, adopted post-independence, were inspired by the lofty ideals of the Russian Revolution. The most important event in Russia, influencing the course of the freedom movement in India, was the October Revolution in 1917. The revolution, its ideology, V. I. Lenin and his deep involvement with the issues confronting the people of the East, the transformation of Russia post 1917, and the overall attitude of the Soviet government and the Comintern towards India’s freedom struggle deeply influenced both the people and the leaders of the Indian freedom movement. Though the multiclass national movement did not get converted completely to the cause of socialism, the fact remains that the legacies of the October Revolution influenced the course of the freedom struggle in multiple ways. Some of its legacies got imprinted in the Constitution that India adopted post-independence. The socialist component of the Constitution of India did not happen by accident. It was the outcome of the massive ideological churning that took place within and outside the Indian National Congress and that which by no small measure was triggered by the emancipatory ideals of the Russian Revolution of 1917. The Constitution of the Republic of India, adopted on 26 January 1950, was based on a set of principles and ideas that would achieve socialist reconstruction of society through democratic means. The right balance of the proper socio-economic rights with guaranteed democratic and civil liberties, based on the majority principle along with the right of minority opinions to exist and flourish in a secular state became the cornerstones of the Constitution that independent India adopted. Many of these values were clearly inspired by the lofty ideals of the Russian Revolution.

From Property Rights to Liberty Rights: We the Corporations, A Review Essay

We The People

A long-standing, and deeply controversial, question in constitutional law is whether or not the Constitution's protections for “persons” and “people” extend to corporations. Law professor Adam Winkler's We the Corporations chronicles the most important legal battles launched by corporations to “win their constitutional rights,” by which he means both civil rights against discriminatory state action and civil liberties enshrined in the Bill of Rights and the Constitution (p. xvii). Today, we think of the former as the right to be free from unequal treatment, often protected by statutory laws, and the latter as liberties that affect the ability to live one's life fully, such as the freedom of religion, speech, or association. The vim in Winkler's argument is that the court blurred this distinction when it applied liberty rights to nonprofit corporations and then, through a series of twentieth-century rulings, corporations were able to advance greater claims to liberty rights. Ultimately, those liberty rights have been employed to strike down significant bipartisan regulations, such as campaign finance laws, which were intended to advance democratic participation in the political process. At its core, this book asks, to what extent do “we the people” rule corporations and to what extent do they rule us?

Constitutional Republic

The Fourth Amendment provides for the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures. Search warrants may only be issued upon a finding of probable cause. This core tenet of our constitutional republic becomes progressively flexible with every development in Fourth Amendment interpretation. In Peffer v. Stephens, the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit delivered the latest blow to constitutional rights that restrict the State from engaging in unprincipled searches. In an issue of first impression, the Sixth Circuit held that a criminal defendant’s alleged use of a computer during the commission of a crime was adequate probable cause to justify a search of the defendant’s home and a seizure of the technological equipment inside. Such a shortsighted justification fails to consider technological innovation, economic policy, and historical civil liberties. Peffer v. Stephens is the latest proof of the parasitic relationship between the law and technological advancement. As technology evolves, the law struggles to keep pace and resultingly impedes economic development. With the exponential growth of technology in the 21st century, a visionary approach to search and seizure law is necessary to promote economic innovation and to refrain from further dismantling Fourth Amendment protections.

The need for third place increased based on an increase in the number of necessities of life and economic growth which resulted in the community only focusing on finding a higher income than before, which caused an increase in stress levels. This is also made worse by the lack of social facilities that can be used by the community to socialize. Therefore the writer wants to try to make a third place for the community around the chosen location. The chosen location is on Jalan Kayu Putih Raya which is a residential area for most industrial workers in the Pulo Gadung industrial area. The choice of location chosen was also based on the results of the field survey which showed that there was still a lack of means for the community to get free entertainment and a place to gather and socialize among the people. In designing this project, the writer also included macro, mezo, and micro site analysis in the consideration of making this project. So that the resulting project can be in accordance with the surrounding environment. In determining the program, the authors also include the results of the questionnaire as a consideration in determining the right program for the community around the project. In the end this project can be designed by the writer with data collected from around the project location and is expected to be used optimally by the surrounding community.AbstrakKebutuhan akan tempat ketiga (third place) semakin meningkat yang didasari oleh peningkatan angka kebutuhan hidup dan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang mengakibatkan masyarakat hanya terfokus untuk mencari pendapatan yang lebih tinggi dari sebelumnya, sehingga menimbulkan tingket stress yang meningkat. Hal ini juga diperburuk dengan sedikitnya sarana sosial yang dapat digunakan oleh masayarakat sebagai wada bersosialisasi.  Oleh sebab itu penulis ingin mencoba untuk menciptakan tempat ketiga (third place) bagi masyarakat disekitar lokasi terpilih. Lokasi yang terpilih adalah di jalan Kayu Putih Raya yang merupakan kawasan perumahan bagi sebagian besar pekerja industri yang ada pada kawasan industri Pulo Gadung. Pemilihan lokasi terpilih juga didasari oleh hasil survei lapangan yang menunjukan masih minimnya sarana bagi masyarakat untuk dapat mendapatkan hiburan yang bersifat tidak berbayar dan tempat untuk berkumpul dan bersosialisasi antar masyarakat. Dalam mendesain proyek ini penulis juga turut serta memasukan analisa tapak secara makro, mezo, dan mikro kedalam pertimbangan pembuatan projek ini. Sehingga projek yang dihasilkan dapat sesuai dengan lingkungan sekitar. Dalam menentukan program penulis juga memasukan hasil kuesioner dalam pertimbangan dalam menentukan program yang tepat bagi masyarakat pada sekitar proyek. Pada akhirnya projek ini dapat didesain oleh penulis dengan data-data yang dikumpulan dari sekitar lokasi proyek dan diharapkan dapat digunakan secara maksimal oleh masyarakat sekitar.

The article deals with the cultural transformation of the city of Osh and Osh region (under the USSR). The October revolution made a radical revolution not only in the field of socio - economic, political and national relations, but also in spiritual life: in culture, ideology, morality, as well as in the life and traditions of the peoples of our Republic. It not only opened the people wide access to spiritual values, but also made them direct creators of these values. From the first days of the victory of the October revolution, it was decided to eradicate such remnants of the middle ages as class, national inequality, the disenfranchised status of women, etc. First of all, it was necessary to create a new school, in its essence, principles, structure and objectives radically different from the old one. Education in the new schools has become free, compulsory, co-educational for children of both sexes and independent of their nationality. All peoples have the right to study in schools in their native language. In April 1918, the people's Commissariat of education was established at the V Congress of Councils of Turkestan, local departments of public education at the Executive committees of regional and district Councils. On may 20, 1918 the Council of public education was formed in Osh.

This research article focuses on the theme of violence and its representation by the characters of the novel “This Savage Song” by Victoria Schwab. How violence is transmitted through genes to next generations and to what extent socio- psycho factors are involved in it, has also been discussed. Similarly, in what manner violent events and deeds by the parents affect the psychology of children and how it inculcates aggressive behaviour in their minds has been studied. What role is played by the parents in grooming the personality of children and ultimately their decisions to choose the right or wrong way has been argued. In the light of the theory of Judith Harris, this research paper highlights all the phenomena involved: How the social hierarchy controls the behaviour. In addition, the aggressive approach of the people in their lives has been analyzed in the light of the study of second theorist Thomas W Blume. As the novel is a unique representation of supernatural characters, the monsters, which are the products of some cruel deeds, this research paper brings out different dimensions of human sufferings with respect to these supernatural beings. Moreover, the researcher also discusses that, in what manner the curse of violence creates an inevitable vicious cycle of cruel monsters that makes the life of the characters turbulent and miserable.

Since the very beginning, Confucianism has been troubled by a serious gap between its political ideals and the reality of societal circumstances. Contemporary Confucians must develop a viable method of governance that can retain the spirit of the Confucian ideal while tackling problems arising from nonideal modern situations. The best way to meet this challenge, this book argues, is to adopt liberal democratic institutions that are shaped by the Confucian conception of the good rather than the liberal conception of the right. The book examines and reconstructs both Confucian political thought and liberal democratic institutions, blending them to form a new Confucian political philosophy. The book decouples liberal democratic institutions from their popular liberal philosophical foundations in fundamental moral rights, such as popular sovereignty, political equality, and individual sovereignty. Instead, it grounds them on Confucian principles and redefines their roles and functions, thus mixing Confucianism with liberal democratic institutions in a way that strengthens both. The book then explores the implications of this new yet traditional political philosophy for fundamental issues in modern politics, including authority, democracy, human rights, civil liberties, and social justice. The book critically reconfigures the Confucian political philosophy of the classical period for the contemporary era.

The article examines the main forms and methods of agitation and propagandistic activities of monarchic parties in Russia in the beginning of the 20th century. Among them the author singles out such ones as periodical press, publication of books, brochures and flyers, organization of manifestations, religious processions, public prayers and funeral services, sending deputations to the monarch, organization of public lectures and readings for the people, as well as various philanthropic events. Using various forms of propagandistic activities the monarchists aspired to embrace all social groups and classes of the population in order to organize all-class and all-estate political movement in support of the autocracy. While they gained certain success in promoting their ideology, the Rights, nevertheless, lost to their adversaries from the radical opposition camp, as the monarchists constrained by their conservative ideology, could not promise immediate social and political changes to the population, and that fact was excessively used by their opponents. Moreover, the ideological paradigm of the Right camp expressed in the “Orthodoxy, Autocracy, Nationality” formula no longer agreed with the social and economic realities of Russia due to modernization processes that were underway in the country from the middle of the 19th century.

Justice that has not existed and is apparent among the disabilities in Indonesia is very large and spread in the archipelago is very large, making the issue of equality is a very important thing especially with the publication of the Disability Act No. 8 of 2016 at the beginning of that year. Only a few provinces that understand properly and well on open and potential issues and issues will affect other areas including the increasingly growing number of elderly people in Indonesia due to the increasing welfare of the people. The government of DKI Jakarta, including the most concerned with disability, from the beginning has set a bold step to defend things related to disability, including local governments in Solo, Bali, Makassar and several other areas. Leprosy belonging to the disability community has a very tough marginalization, the disability that arises from leprosy quite a lot, reaches ten percent more and covers the poor areas of Indonesia, such as Nusa Tenggara Timur, Papua, South Sulawesi Provinces and even East Java and West Java and Central Java Provinces. If we compare again with the ASEAN countries we also do not miss the moment in ratifying the CRPD (Convention of Rights for People with Disability) into the Law of Disability No. 8 of 2016 which, although already published but still get rejections in some sections because do not provide proper empowerment and rights equality. The struggle is long and must be continued to build equal rights in all areas, not only health and welfare but also in the right of the right to receive continuous inclusive education.
