Talk:Ipso facto

message: Ipso facto is defined as a Latin phrase.  While it is of Latin origin it is now in English dictionaries, and I suspect in dictionaries of other languages.  How can we clearly state this?

message: The page says this in the intro: "It is a term of art used in philosophy, law and science."  However, the page currently only discusses (briefly) law.  How is it a term of art in Science and Philosophy?  That is not yet discussed at all. RedSource (talk) 03:33, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

message: Statute of the International Court of Justice, June 26, 1945
"2. The states parties to the present Statute may at any time declare that they recognize as compulsory ipso facto and without special agreement, in relation to any other state accepting the same obligation, the jurisdiction of the Court in all legal disputes concerning:
a. the interpretation of a treaty;
b. any question of international law;
c. the existence of any fact which, if established, would constitute a breach of an international obligation;
d. the nature or extent of the reparation to be made for the breach of an international obligation. "
Not sure how to work this in but it is a good exapmle of ipso facto in the context of an international text.    —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarterus (talk • contribs) 18:39, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

message: When writing in English, the convention is to italicise words that are not English, especially Latin words.
In addition, you don't say "the marriage would be void ipso facto", but "ipso facto, the marriage would be void", or "the marriage would be ipso facto void".

message: I am currently reading Hegel's text The Philosophy of History -- specifically, the translation by J. Sibree (New York: Dover, 1956).  At various places in the text, Hegel uses "ipse facto" rather than "ipso facto" as in: "In agriculture itself is involved, ipse facto, the cessation of a roaming life" (p. 101).  What is the difference, if any, between ipso facto and ipse facto? Drval 19:08, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: My latin is limited (and very rusty) having only done two years at school around a decade ago but I believe ipso is itself while ipse is himself. I'm not quite sure though how that fits with your quote though...Azo bob (talk) 17:56, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Ipso facto" versus "ipse facto" 

message: Perhaps someone could remember if this phrase was used in a movie? tv show? I remember a character saying it, however google has been less than helpful.
:It was used in Justice League, Animal Crackers, Fierce Creatures, and The Man With Two Brains.  That's all I could find on IMDB for quotes. 129.64.141.43 01:22, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Question... 

message: Last sentence of of Legal Uses section reads,
"The act is ipso facto because it is done as a cover for something else..."
Should this be,
"The act is ipso facto illegal because it is done as a cover for something else..."?
If you think the proposed change is correct, please make the change. I don't understand this phrase well enough to judge. ike9898 (talk) 13:44, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Please check this sentence

message: I would like to see a discussion or have someone expound on this term and its broader uses. For example, you will behave as such for my word is law, ipso facto. Or for a better example: "Moreover, because information is presumed to be a public good, markets are ipso facto supposed to produce and disseminate a suboptimal amount of information." Taken from Robert Higgs' article 'Banning a Risky Product Cannot Improve Any Consumer's Welfare (Properly Understood), with Applications to FDA Testing Requirements'. This is near the beginning of the article. But the term ipso facto used in conjuction with the very word 'supposed' implies a different use of the term. Any thoughts?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ahall12 (talk • contribs) 12:49, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ipso Facto in the context of "Ought" 

message: I believe that this page could become much clearer if other examples of the use of the phrase ipso facto were used. While the example of money laundering is good, I think that a couple of more examples, especially if they were non-legal, would help clarify the meaning and usage of this important phrase. For example: Phil, an alien living in the USA cannot obtain a US Passport. This could also be  phrased: Phil, as an alien living in the USA, ipso facto cannot obtain a US Passport. This is not a great example, but I am sure others can do better. 
I have no knowledge of Latin, so I do not feel qualified to edit this entry.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.144.68.130 (talk) 13:54, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Look at the last sentence in the section noted. What in the world is that nonsense phrase 
an electrical supervisor of the tunnel supposed to say?
In Catholic canon law
Main article: Latae sententiae
Ipso facto denotes the automatic character of the loss of membership in a religious body by someone guilty of a specified action. Within the canon law of the Catholic Church, the phrase latte sententiae is more commonly used than ipso facto with regard to ecclesiastical penalties such as excommunication. It indicates that the effect follows even if no verdict (in Latin, sententia) is pronounced by an electrical supervisor of the tunnel[clarification needed].
