Interpretation of the Spanish Constitutional Amendment Bill as a Moral
Argument
Authors: Rivera Dante
Published: August 2024

In the context of the Spanish Constitutional Amendment Bill of 2005, the
Socialist government of President José Luis Rodrguez Zapatero legalized
same-sex marriage (SSM). The SSM bill was interpreted as a constitutional
amendment. The original meaning of Art. 32.1, particularly its implied
content, became, in sum, both an aid of constitu-tional moral legitimacy and
an argumentative device to rebut the constitutional amendment claim made
consistently by opponents of the SSM legislation. In the present analysis,
it is argued that the claim of distributiveness in the original meaning was
played in the legal reasoning and the legal decisions behind the
implementation of the new SSM law. This incoherent distributive reading, the
crux of this paper, provides insights into the theory of legal reasoning,
particularly in what concerns the relation between linguistic and legal
meaning. In particular, the contradictory and unfaithful approach that
pro-SSM law-interpreters took to the original text demonstrates the value of
linguistic meaning in legal interpretation when moral arguments alone cannot
answer a legal question.

Life Insurance and Economic Growth Nexus: Evidence from The MENA Region
Authors: Zerriaa Mouna
Published: August 2024

This paper conducts an empirical analysis of the relationship between life insurance market development and economic growth in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The study examines data from 15 countries over the period from 1999 to 2023. This is accomplished by employing panel unit root tests, panel cointegration inquiries and pooled mean group (PMG) estimation to uncover potential causal relationships. The results pertinently demonstrate a substantial and positive long-term relationship between the life insurance sector and economic growth in the MENA region. They reveal that there is evidence in support of supply-leading hypothesis rather than the demand-following hypothesis. This long-term connection suggests that advancements and expansions within the life insurance industry are significantly associated with, and potentially contribute to, overall economic growth in the region. Enhancing the life insurance sector may be a proactive strategy to promote economic development, rather than a reaction to economic growth. Therefore, policymakers should promote insurance literacy, establish a supportive regulatory framework and provide tax incentives so as to enhance the uptake of life insurance. Furthermore, promoting financial inclusion, deploying digital platforms, and encouraging public-private partnerships can enhance the growth of life insurance, thereby contributing to broader economic development.

Adopting the method of ‘removing excuses’ to financial facilitators

Criminals sometimes use so-called financial facilitators to invest their ill-gotten gains without drawing attention to themselves. These facilitators are experts at getting round anti-money laundering procedures. Because of their expertise and unique capabilities they play an important role in criminal networks. It therefore stands to reason that law enforcement focuses on them. That focus often translates in prosecution when laws are broken. However, what can we do to prevent financial experts in breaking the law? In this article the focus lies on the method of removing excuses. This technique is employed in every day crimes but has not been put to the test in the context of organized crime. Interviews with police officers show that the technique of removing excuses could work under certain conditions. However, it turns out that an important differentiation lies in the sort of activities financial facilitators undertake. Not all financial activities take place in the legal financial-economic system. Instead of distinguishing between the three classical phases of money laundering (placement, layering, integration), a two-pronged focus is proposed on those who are involved in cash based transactions and those who construct smokescreens on paper.
De rol van de recherche bij terrorismepreventie

Investigating terrorism and situational crime prevention

The central question of this article is how situational crime prevention (SCP) might be of help in preventing terrorism. Newman and Clarke's Policing Terrorism is confronted with investigations by the Dutch National Crime Squad, leading to the conclusion that Newman and Clarke have too narrow a scope on policing and preventing terrorism, in particular where it comes to the role of criminal investigation, which they narrow down to the phases immediately before and after a terrorist attack. Case files show that offender-oriented criminal investigation has a central role in the prevention of terrorism in several respects. First, criminal investigators intervene in earlier phases of terrorist preparation. Second, counter-terrorism targets a wide range of terrorist offences (e.g. terrorist financing and jihad travel) which often have no direct link to a terrorist assault plan. ‘Proactive repression’ seems an adequate term to characterise the preventive work of criminal investigators in this field. In turn, this work offers insights that might be of help in developing an SCP-approach to terrorism. Such an approach should start with recognizing that there is a diversity of terrorist offences and that each offence demands a crime specific script.

When the gold devils come; armed robberies on jewelry stores in the Netherlands

In the last five years the number of armed robberies on jewelry stores in the Netherlands has increased again and reached an all-time high in 2010. In this article, recent developments are discussed. The absolute number of these robberies is not very large, but in terms of the chance of being robbed, jewelry stores belong to the most threatened in retail. In general, armed robberies on jewelry stores show a pattern very similar to robberies on other retail targets. About two third are hit-and-run robberies, committed by offenders who live nearby and are generally known to the police as repeat offenders. A smaller portion of these robberies is committed by offenders operating more professionally. In the last ten years there were no big changes in the way these crimes were committed. Contrary to other types of robbery this crime is often profitable. The size of the loot is relatively high. In recent years the price of gold has dramatically increased. This might be considered an independent risk factor. Nevertheless, it's too simple to assess the recent increase of armed robberies on jewelry stores as a direct consequence of this development.
Manipulatie van de gouden standaard door de Bank of England
Authors: Garrett J.R.
Published: August 2024

The manipulation of the gold standard by the Bank of England

The Bank of England depleted its open market portfolio by secretly sterilising large gold inflows. Thereafter interest rates were influenced by falsifying reported gold flows. The false reporting was a tightly kept secret, hidden from members of the Bank of England's highest governing bodies. The false reporting obscured the instability of the gold standard and supported monetary policies that degraded British economic performance and increased world financial fragility in the critical early years of the Great Depression. The episode supports the view that the interwar gold standard was not a system guiding policy, but was manipulated to enforce a dysfunctional classical orthodoxy.
Geweld en de alcoholcultuur van plattelandsjongeren

Violence and the alcohol culture of rural youth

This paper analyses the association between rural youth violence, drinking alcohol in the weekend and going to the pub, as compared to their peers in more urbanized areas. In addition, the paper analyses whether the gender gap in the use of violence is larger for rural youth. Based on self-report data of 5,062 youngsters aged 14-22 years old, two forms of violence were analysed. The first concerns physical violence: fighting, hitting someone resulting in medical treatment and wounding someone with a weapon. The second comprises behaviour that prepares for the use of violence: threatening and carrying a weapon. These two forms of violence were related to two types of rural areas on the basis of population density. It turned out that youngsters living in the least densely populated areas were not less likely to have engaged in physical violence whereas their peers in more densely populated rural areas had somewhat lower chances to do so. Concerning behaviour that prepares for violence, the analyses showed that in both rural areas, youth were slightly less likely to have engaged in such behaviour. Furthermore, the association between drinking alcohol and the use of physical violence was stronger for youth living in both rural areas. The results also indicate that the gender gap in youth violence is not larger for rural youth. The paper concludes that future research should inquire the specific meanings of alcohol and violence in rural youth culture. Such research should take the diversity of rural areas into account, rather than relying on measures of population density only.

Having a job leads to diminishing delinquency

This article is based on the author's recent doctorate thesis Working their way into adulthood, which analyses the role of employment in delinquent development in 270 high-risk males from age 18 to 32. Prior to age 18 all men had undergone residential treatment for serious problem behaviour in a juvenile justice institution in the Netherlands. Although recidivism is high, most juveniles desist in their mid-20s, and even high-frequency chronic offenders show declined levels of criminality around age 30. Why do some offenders desist from offending, while others continue? Part of this variation is explained by personality and background characteristics. Over and above these factors, employment is significantly related to a decrease in offending. This paper further analyses the relationship between employment and crime.

Art projects and What Works; stimulating desistance?

This paper draws principally on a literature review that explored the question of whether arts projects in prisons can support desistance from crime. The review, which aimed to connect the literatures on arts projects in prisons, on learning in prisons and on desistance from crime, was undertaken to support the evaluation of a major arts initiative in Scottish Prisons - Inspiring Change - which took place during 2010. A brief summary of the findings of the evaluation is also provided. The paper concludes that while it is unreasonable and unrealistic to expect arts projects to ‘produce’ desistance, there is evidence that they can play a vital role in enabling prisoners to imagine and to embark on the desistance process.

Published: August 2024

Patients with osteoarthritis of the hip, due to severe, long-term pain and joint disability, have difficulties with functional activities and therefore a reduced quality of life. When patients decide to undergo hip arthroplasty, in addition to pain reduction, improved dexterity and quality of life, they also want the opportunity to participate in various physical and social activities. The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional capacity, pain level and quality of life of patients following hip arthroplasty, depending on the type of implanted endoprosthesis.The study included 100 patients between 1 and 5 years after hip arthroplasty for degenerative changes. Patients were divided into two groups of 50 patients each according to the type of implanted endoprosthesis (Group 1 - hip endoprosthesis, Group 2 - conventional endoprosthesis).The Harris scale, ‘Up and Go’ test, VAS scale and RAND SF-36 were used in the study.In the assessment of functional performance with the ‘Up and Go’ test, Group 1 (7.23 sec.) scored better (p<0.0001) than Group 2 (8.07 sec.), equally here in the analysis by gender. In the assessment of pain level and functional capacity, Group 1 also scored better than Group 2 in all parameters assessed, but the results were not statistically significant. No differences were observed between the groups in the assessment of other parameters. Correlation analysis of the Harris scale scores showed a significant association with the Up and Go test scores (r -0.36; p=0.0003) and the RAND SF-36 questionnaire scores.In the assessment of functional performance assessed by the ‘Up and Go’ test, patients with a short stem scored better. No differences were observed between the groups in the assessment of functional capacity assessed by the Harris scale, in the assessment of pain and in the assessment of quality of life. A correlation was observed between the Harris scale and specific categories on the RAND SF-36 quality of life questionnaire (physical limitations, limitations due to physical health, limitations due to emotional problems and complaints of pain).

Breastfeeding in the first hours of life is a practice that goes beyond nutrition, playing a vital role in the survival and health of newborns. The literature has shown that early initiation of breastfeeding is directly related to a significant reduction in neonatal mortality, especially in public health contexts. In addition to the immediate effects, breastfeeding in the first hours promotes the physiological stabilization of the baby and strengthens the immune system, offering a crucial defense against infections. However, misinformation and myths still permeate this practice, often compromising its success. This study aimed to examine, through a narrative review of the literature, the relevance of this practice, highlighting its positive impact and combating common misinformation about breastfeeding. The methodology adopted involved a qualitative and descriptive narrative review referring to the last ten years of publications (2014-2024), with a bibliographic search carried out in health databases such as: Scielo, PubMed and VHL. The initial search identified 359 studies, of which 84 were fully evaluated after screening. Of these, 39 articles were selected to compose the final review, offering a solid basis for the analysis. The review concludes that exclusive breastfeeding, without the introduction of unnecessary supplements, is sufficient for adequate nutrition of the newborn. In addition, the role of health professionals, especially doctors and nurses, is fundamental for the success of breastfeeding, through programs such as the Stork Network Project and the Kangaroo Method.

Infertility affects millions of couples around the world, and is considered a significant challenge to global health. Even after 12 months of attempts without contraception, many fail to conceive, which highlights the importance of assisted reproductive techniques as a viable solution. Over the years, several approaches have been developed to increase the chances of successful fertilization, with embryo transfer being one of the most used. However, the success of this procedure can be influenced by multiple factors, including endometrial thickness. This study aims to explore the impact of endometrial thickness on embryo transfer and its relationship with the clinical evolution of oocytes. The research consists of a narrative review of the last 10 years of literature, resulting in the in-depth analysis of 5 articles selected from 147 initial findings. The results indicate that endometrial thickness not only affects embryo transfer and oocyte development, but may also be associated with gestational complications, such as hypertensive disorders in pregnancy.

Myocardial revascularization, a crucial surgical procedure for patients with obstructive coronary artery disease, has a significant impact on public health, especially in Brazil. Although historically most patients have been men, women are increasingly requiring this procedure, due to factors such as hormonal changes and specific cardiovascular risk. Studies indicate that women have higher mortality rates after surgery, which underscores the importance of specialized monitoring and a personalized approach. Understanding the specific risks and promoting healthy habits are essential to improve outcomes in women undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

Published: August 2024

Background: Ascites, the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity, can arise from various benign and malignant conditions. The differential diagnosis of ascites is crucial for determining appropriate treatment. This study investigates the diagnostic efficacy of the serum ascitic cholesterol gradient (SACG) and ascitic cholesterol levels in distinguishing between benign and malignant ascites.Methods: This cross-sectional observational study included 75 patients with ascites at Saveetha Medical College Hospital. Participants were categorized into benign and malignant ascites groups based on clinical, biochemical, and radiographic findings. Serum and ascitic fluid samples were analyzed for albumin and cholesterol levels. The diagnostic efficacy of SACG was compared to serum ascitic albumin gradient (SAAG) and cytology for malignant cells.Results: The study found significant differences in serum and ascitic fluid cholesterol levels between benign and malignant ascites groups. SACG demonstrated higher sensitivity (94.4%) and specificity (96.49%) compared to SAAG (sensitivity 88.8%, specificity 91.2%) in differentiating malignant from benign ascites. SACG also showed superior diagnostic accuracy.Conclusion: SACG is a valuable diagnostic tool for distinguishing between benign and malignant ascites, offering higher accuracy compared to traditional markers such as SAAG. Incorporating SACG into routine diagnostic protocols may improve early diagnosis and treatment of malignant ascites
