The result of increased migration is the interaction among cultural communities and inevitably clashes between state law and customary law. These cultural conflicts have given rise to a new multicultural jurisprudence. In this volume scholars grapple with the immense challenges judges are currently experiencing everywhere. To what extent can and should courts accommodate litigants' requests by taking their cultural backgrounds into account? This collection brings together powerful examples of the cultural defense in many countries in Western Europe, North America, and elsewhere. It shows the ubiquity of this defense, contrary to the mistaken impression that it has been invoked principally in the United States. This book makes the case for undertaking studies of the use of the cultural defense in jurisdictions all over the world where this has not been previously documented. Many of the chapters concentrate on criminal cases including homicide in the context of honour crimes, provocation based on 'loss of face' or witchcraft killings. Some deal with other areas of law such as asylum jurisprudence, family law and housing policy. They show in concrete cases how cultural claims have arisen and how legal systems wrestle with these arguments. It is clear that judges have had considerable difficulty handling many of the cultural claims. The authors demonstrate persuasively the need to reconsider the proper use of cultural evidence in legal proceedings. Those interested in the ways in which expertise influences the disposition of cases will find this book compelling."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aOnati international series in law and society. 606 $aActions and defenses$xSociological aspects 606 $aCultural defense (Law) 606 $aCultural pluralism 606 $aDefense (Civil procedure)$xSociological aspects 606 $aDefense (Criminal procedure)$xSociological aspects 606 $aLaw and globalization 606 $aMulticulturalism$xLaw and legislation 606 $aSociological jurisprudence 606 $2Jurisprudence & philosophy of law 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aActions and defenses$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aCultural defense (Law) 615 0$aCultural pluralism. 615 0$aDefense (Civil procedure)$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aDefense (Criminal procedure)$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aLaw and globalization. 615 0$aMulticulturalism$xLaw and legislation. 615 0$aSociological jurisprudence. 676 $a340.115 676 $a340.2 702 $aFoblets$b Marie-Claire$f1959- 702 $aRenteln$b Alison Dundes 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455291603321 996 $aMulticultural jurisprudence$92456849 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01274nam a2200301 i 4500 001 991001158499707536 008 050719s1995 nyua b 001 0 eng d 020 $a0471118753 035 $ab13329212-39ule_inst 040 $aDip.to Ingegneria dell'Innovazione$beng 082 0 $a621.366$220 100 1 $aColdren, Larry A.$0502721 245 10$aDiode lasers and photonic integrated circuits /$cL.A.

Naturally occurring bioactive compounds are ubiquitous in most dietary plants available to humans and provide opportunities for the management of diseases. The text provides information about the major causes of these diseases and their association with nutrition. The text also covers the role of dietary phytochemicals in drug development and their pathways. Later chapters emphasize novel bioactive compounds as anti-diabetic, anti-cancer and anti-obesity agents and describe their mechanisms to regulate cell metabolism. Written by global team of experts, Dietary Phytochemicals: A Source of Novel Bioactive Compounds for the Treatment of Obesity, Cancer and Diabetes describes the potentials of novel phytochemicals, their sources, and underlying mechanism of action. The chapters were drawn systematically and incorporated sequentially to facilitate proper understanding. This book is intended for nutritionists, physicians, medicinal chemists, drug developers in research and development, postgraduate students and scientists in area of nutrition and life sciences. 606 $aBotany 606 $aFood science 606 $aCancer$xPrevention 606 $aNutrition 606 $aPlant Science 606 $aFood Science 606 $aCancer Prevention 606 $aNutrition 615 0$aBotany. 615 0$aFood science. 615 0$aCancer$xPrevention. 615 0$aNutrition. 615 14$aPlant Science. 615 24$aFood Science. 615 24$aCancer Prevention. 615 24$aNutrition. 676 $a615.321 702 $aEgbuna$b Chukwuebuka 702 $aHassan$b Sadia 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910495214003321 996 $aDietary phytochemicals$92853119 997 $aUNINA
