Beer Hall

My article aims to interrogate the tension between space and time in Diderot’s philosophy starting from the tableau of the imagination and its specific functioning.By examining the category of ragoût – a culinary preparation that, during the 18th century, became an expression of an aesthetic of the relationship and harmony between the parts and the whole – I will show how it plays, between the Lettres sur les souds et muets, the Essais sur la peinture, the Salons and the Regrets sur ma vieille robe de chambre, its central role in defining an idea of dynamic spatiality, within which reality and representation coexist in relationships of mutual tension and correspondence. In fact, the ragoût reveals a conception of convenience which, by interweaving space and time, recalls the processes of human reason and interrogates them in pictorial and real space, making it habitable and comprehensible: if a detail always reveals a totality, activating a process of orientation in reality, when the relationship between the parts and the whole breaks down, the world itself falls apart. It is the law of convenience and ragoût that regulates the world: to change one’s dressing gown is to redefine one's life entirely. If this does not happen, if the relationship between the fragment and the whole is broken, as in La Grenée painting exhibited at the Salon 1767, Penelope appears more suited to a beer hall than to the majestic but sober palace of Ithaca.

The Relationship

The relationship of state sovereignty and the jurisdiction of international tribunals presents one of the main problems in the law of international adjudication. Submission to the jurisdiction of a tribunal implies a partial surrender of sovereignty. The extent of the surrender may be said to be proportionate to the degree of discretion open to the tribunal concerned when deciding a case submitted to it. The present study will deal with an important aspect of this judicial freedom of determination, namely, the extent to which the World Court can seek to discover the facts and circumstances of a dispute independently of the evidence and information brought before it voluntarily by the parties.

The Revolution

The year 2011 saw unprecedented waves of people occupying key locations around the world in a statement of public discontent. In Egypt, the protests which took place between 25 January and 11 February 2011 culminating in the ouster of former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak have now come to be known as the Egyptian Revolution. Media reporting of the revolution often portrayed it as a ‘spectacle’ playing out on the stage of Tahrir Square which was dubbed ‘the symbolic heart of the Egyptian revolution’. Tahrir Square quickly became a space serving various functions and layered with an array of meanings. This paper explores the relationship between the discourse of protest messages and the space of Tahrir Square during the January 25 revolution, demonstrating how the two were mutually reinforcing. The messages are drawn from a corpus of approximately 2000 protest messages captured in Tahrir Square between 25 January and 11 February 2011. The analysis is presented in the form of six conceptualising frames for the space of Tahrir Square which take into account both its geographical and social context. The conceptualisation draws from the field of geosemiotics, which posits that all discourses are ‘situated’ both in space and time (Scollon & Scollon 2003), and on the Lefebvrian principles of the production of space which provide a useful framework for interpreting urban space (Lefebvre 1991).

God is the God who wants to reveal Himself to humans. God also revealed what He wanted humans to do in the 10 Commanments. The law provides for the things that humans must do in relation to God and with others. The first law in human relations is the law concerning parents and children. Children must respect their parents. In fact, there are many events that show the fading of the values of respecting parents. This paper tries to reexamine the fifth law regarding respect for parents by analyzing Deuteronomy 5:16.  The analysis is done by looking for the meaning of the word "honor" and synthesizing several interpretations of the meaning of honoring parents.From this analysis it was found that through parents, a child is born into the world. Parents are God's representatives. The relationship between parent and child is the highest relationship in human relations. God gives orders for children to respect their parents. Respecting parents can be done in the form of submitting to parents, obeying parents and caring for parents in their old age. This has implications in the process of family education where parents are responsible for educating their children, children must be taught about things that God has done and submit to authority.  AbstrakAllah adalah Allah yang mau menyatakan diri-Nya kepada manusia.  Allah juga menyatakan apa yang dikehendaki-Nya untuk dilakukan oleh manusia dalam hukum Taurat.  Hukum Taurat memberikan hal-hal yang harus dilakukan oleh manusia dalam hubungannya dengan Allah dan dengan sesama.  Hukum pertama dalam hubungan dengan manusia adalah hukum tentang orang tua dan anak.  Anak harus menghormati orang tuanya. Kenyataan yang terjadi saat ini, banyak kejadian yang menunjukkan lunturnya nilai-nilai menghormati orang tua. Tulisan ini mencoba meneliti kembali hukum Taurat yang kelima mengenai menghormati orang tua dengan menganalisis Ulangan 5:16.  Analisis yang dilakukan adalah dengan mencari makna kata “hormat” dan mensintesakan beberapa penafsiran mengenai makna menghormati orang tua.  Dari analisis tersebut ditemukan bahwa melalui orang tua, seorang anak dilahirkan ke dalam dunia.  Orang tua adalah wakil Allah.  Hubungan orang tua dan anak adalah hubungan yang tertinggi dalam hubungan antar manusia.  Allah memberikan perintah agar anak menghormati orang tua.  Menghormati orang tua dapat dilakukan dalam bentuk tunduk kepada orang tua, taat kepada orang tua dan memelihara orang tua pada masa tuanya.  Hal ini berimplikasi dalam proses pendidikan keluarga dimana orang tua bertanggung jawab dalam mendidik anak-anaknya, anak-anak harus diajarkan tentang hal-hal yang sudah dilakukan Allah dan tunduk pada otoritas.

AbstractThe relationship between documents emanating from the world of judicial practice and model formulae recorded in juristic manuals has been viewed differentially by modern scholars. Whereas Joseph Schacht posited the existence of a close relationship between the the realia of judicial practice and juristic manuals, others did not. Going one step beyond Schacht, I argue that the relationship between model ShurūṬ and documents originating in practice was dialectical, involving complex processes of editing, interpolation and selection, processes that functioned — almost imperceptibly — within the conventional legal dynamics of the madhhab. If this view is accepted, it follows that the conventional wisdom regarding a gap between Islamic legal doctrine and judicial practice is untenable, at least in the areas of the law covered by ShurūṬ manuals.

I 31

A study of the relationship between faith and reason in Paul's theology, such as we are now going to undertake, would seem to be a particularly fruitless investigation. We all know from the opening chapters of I Corinthians that the apostle, as a preacher of the message of the cross, fought just as bitterly against the wisdom of this world as against the attempt to achieve righteousness through works. The wisdom of this world and the righteousness based on works are both characteristic of the man who is seeking to assert himself before God and whose attempt miscarries. Just as Christ is the end of the law, it must apply in the same sense that he is the end of the wisdom of this world. God has destroyed it through the cross (I Cor. i. 18ff.). From now on the words ‘He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord’ hold good both for Jews and Greeks alike (I Cor. i. 31). One cannot seriously discount the significance of these passages by saying they contain nothing but exaggerated and casual utterances. Paul has expressed himself here in fundamental, comprehensive and consciously offensive terms, in order to demonstrate the contrast between the news of the Crucified, a σkáνδαλoν for the Jews and a μωία for the Greeks, and the wisdom of the world, which is foolishness in God's eyes. These words of the apostle have in fact given offence again and again. Since the days of Celsus and Porphyrius they have aroused the indignant protests of the opponents of Christianity. Goethe voiced them quite openly, ‘Living till seventy wouldn't be worth the trouble, if all the wisdom of the world were folly in the sight of God’ (Max. und Reflex. 2). We must certainly not forget that in I Cor. i–iii the apostle is speaking about the wisdom of the world and not directly about reason itself. But this distinction does not seem to help us much. The trenchant answer which Paul gives his opponents who contest his claim to be a true apostle and man of the Spirit forces us to ask whether he leaves man's reason any place at all: ‘Yes, we certainly walk in the flesh (έν σαρkί) but we do not wage our war in the manner of the flesh (kατα σαρkα)—for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God for the destruction of strongholds—as we destroy sophistries (λoγiσμoúς) and all arrogance, which exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bring every thought (νóημα) into captivity under the obedience of Christ’ (II Cor. x. 3–5).

The Relationship

In this article, the author examines the relationship between power, time, and human reality. Using a novel by the Bosnian writer Meša Selimović as a case study, the author tests two metaphysical claims: power submits to power only, and the passage of time empties the significance of each and every human activity. The author finds that Selimović’s novel confirms both. The conclusion is profoundly pessimistic. The lives of human beings are doubly unhappy: they are spent in protracted struggles for resources and recognition that yield power, and also even the accomplishments of the victorious in these struggles will be erased by the passage of time. However, the understanding of the second claim might retroactively ameliorate the conditions of human life. Yet as evidenced by Selimović’s novel, in the world dominated by power, this does not happen. The case of Šehaga Sočo shows that even the one whose personal experience convinced him of the meaninglessness of it all is unable to break out of the cycle of rivalry and revenge. At his deathbed, he orders the death of his rivals, though he knows that to him dying, it makes no difference whether they live or die. Why not opt for forgiveness? Because, as Selimović emphasizes, power’s insistence on self-perpetuation is illogical, and it is logic that tells us not to engage in meaningless tasks. In other words, human reason is powerless to provide us with a more tolerant world.

Persons with disabilities constitute the highest minority group in the world. This number is expected to continue to increase from year to year in line with world population growth, natural disasters and other factors. The purpose of this study is to determine the relationship related to work creation which is not friendly to people with disabilities. The research method used is literature study with the main source, namely the law number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. The result of this research is that the Job Creation Law does not actually support the fulfillment of the rights of persons with disabilities in getting proper accommodation in the world of work. The Job Creation Law does not include a 1% quota provision for private companies and 2% for BUMN / BUMD and Government / Local Government to employ persons with disabilities from all employees, which are currently listed in the Law on Persons with Disabilities.

Functional Purpose

Law is the accumulation of rational ideas in response to community development that was born based on the idea of universality and morality. The idea of universality provides a justification for the enactment of basic human freedoms and recognition of basic human rights in the life of the country. Similarly, the idea of morality is that moral principles are general and can be analyzed by human reason. The second idea is the essence of it is used as a basic idea about the nature of the formulation of law and justice as a legal the flow law functional purpose in looking at the law more focused on the facts of a field, social, cultural, political, and religion as factors that need to be a consideration in seeking legal solutions. Both streams are still evolving and are applied in various countries around the world. With regard to the transformation of Islamic law in national legal systems, it cannot be separated from these two streams of law that is through a systems approach and the approach to legislation.

Many legal systems throughout the world have a rule of thumb adherence to the doctrine of precedent. However, few keep to the concept of binding precedent as rigidly as the English legal system. Indeed, it has been said that it is more difficult to get rid of an awkward decision in England than it is anywhere else in the world. 4.2 LEARNING OUTCOMES By the end of this chapter, readers should: • understand the basic rationale for the doctrine of precedent; • be able to explain what the doctrine of precedent is; • understand the difference between the theoretical dimension and the practical dimension of the doctrine of precedent; • be able to competently read a case and prepare a case note; • understand the relationship between reliable law reporting and the doctrine of precedent; • understand the relationship between statutes and cases; • be able to distinguish between year books, nominate reports, general and specialist series, and official reports; • understand the constituent parts of the ratio of a case. 4.3 THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LAW REPORTING AND THE DOCTRINE OF PRECEDENT The only way of being able to keep successfully to the doctrine of binding precedent is to have a reliable system of law reporting. The competent production of volumes of reports of past cases is indispensable to the operation of the doctrine. Reliable law reports have only been available in England since 1865 although there are a range of fragmentary law reports going back to the 12th century, which are known as yearbooks. Reports existing in the Yearbooks cover the period from the late 12th century to the early 16th century. However, it is not always possible to discover if the report is of an actual case or a moot (an argument contest between lawyers). This makes them an unreliable source and also the detail that was given and the quality of the reports varies considerably. Some reports record outcome, but not facts, others record facts and outcome, but give no reasoning process. Reports also exist in the nominate (named) reports dating from the late 15th century to 1865. By the 19th century, a court-authorised reporter was attached to all higher courts and their reports were published in collected volumes again by name of reporter. By 1865, there were 16 reporters compiling and publishing authorised reports. They were amalgamated into the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting and the reports were published in volumes known as the Law Reports. These reports are checked by the judges of the relevant case prior to publication and a rule of citation has developed that if a case is reported in a range of publications, only that version printed in the Law Reports is cited in court. However, the accuracy of reports pre-dating the setting up of the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting in 1865 cannot be guaranteed.
