Title: ‘The Law of Contract confines itself to the enforcement of voluntarily created civil obligations’-illustrate and explain. ABSTRACT This essay attempts to focus on the scope of the law of contract in relation to its enforcement capability of voluntarily created civil obligation. In an attempt to do so, the basic elements of the law of contract were discussed. Then attention was directed to civil obligation. Various interpretation of the civil law or obligation revealed its voluntary nature. Then in an attempt to create a link between the law of contract and civil obligation, both the concepts were related and it was found out that contract law did indeed enforce voluntary civil obligations. Finally, this view was countered...

...CONTRACT LAW Introduction: Contracts form a central feature of our modern life. Most activities we engage in constitute contracts. The law of contract is therefore key to defining and strengthening relationships. A contract is a mini legal system which has provisions and terms which govern the relationship between parties thereto and hence conferring rights and obligations upon them. The law of contracts is the most important and the basic part of law. All of us enter into contracts in our day-to-day activities. Example, when we buy household goods, board a bus, have a meal at a restaurant, we create legal relations giving rise to obligations. The following questions are very important in contract law; * Is there a contract?—rules relating to the formation of a contract—elements of a legally binding and enforceable contract * Can the courts enforce the same? * Have parties conclusively performed their obligations? * If not, what are the remedies available for the breach of that contract? * (iii). | Nature of Contract and Definition“A legally binding agreement made between two or more persons by which rights are acquired by one or more parties and forbearance or loss on the part of the other person/s.“An agreement creating and defining obligations between parties’’. The agreement referred in the above definitions means a meeting of minds called in law “Consensus ad idem” It signifies that the parties have agreed together about the same thing. It...

...servanda”, (“agreements must be kept"). The common law of contract originated with the now-defunct writ of assumpsit, which was originally a tort action based on reliance. Contract law falls within the general law of obligations, along with tort, unjust enrichment, and restitution. Jurisdictions vary in their principles of freedom of contract. In common law jurisdictions such as England and the United States, a high degree of freedom is the norm. For example, in American law, it was determined in the 1901 case of Hurley v. Eddingfield that a physician was permitted to deny treatment to a patient despite the lack of other available medical assistance and the patient's subsequent death. This is in contrast to the civil law, which typically applies certain overarching principles to disputes arising out of contract, as in the French Civil Code. Other legal systems such as Islamic law, socialist legal systems, and customary law have their own variations. In contemporary times, each case requires an agreement between each other. It is intended that the contract is important in an agreement to prove that the two sides can conduct issues in a more prudent and responsible. Contract means the law that regulates the deal. The agreement is an agreement between two or more parties regarding the subject matter. It should be understood that the term of the contract is more specific, while the term of the agreement is more common. Only an agreement that has the characteristics of a contract only...

...2007 Forum: China’s Rapid Economic Growth and Resultant Negative Externalities 867 CHINA’S RAPID ECONOMIC GROWTH AND RESULTANT NEGATIVE EXTERNALITIES PATRICIA BLAZEY* I INTRODUCTION China’s economic growth over the past fifteen years has turned it into the world’s major manufacturing base, making it one of the world’s four largest economies.1 During this period, China’s average annual real Gross Domestic Product (‘GDP’) grew by 9.7 per cent peaking at 11.9 per cent up to the second quarter in 2007, the highest growth rate over that period of time.2 At the same time the negative environmental externalities of economic growth have escalated and are causing concern not only within China itself but also globally. China has suffered severe ecological destruction and serious environmental problems which threaten both its economy and the health of its people. Apart from air and water pollution, unprecedented growth in household and industrial waste, loss of biodiversity, felling of rain rainforests and overfishing has occurred. On a global level, China’s air pollution levels have contributed substantially to the negative effects of climate change. China’s rapid growth has been accelerated through its membership of the World Trade Organization (‘WTO’)3 and policies of trade liberalisation. Foreign investment has escalated due to preferential tax treatment and the relaxation of bureaucratic obstacles which in the past had slowed down the process of getting projects...

Identification of Person a)Identification by fingerprint Fingerprint Identification is the method of identification using the impressions made by the minute ridge formations or patterns found on the fingertips. No two persons have exactly the same arrangement of ridge patterns, and the patterns of any one individual remain unchanged throughout life. Fingerprints offer an infallible means of personal identification. Other personal characteristics may change, but fingerprints do not. By comparing fingerprints at the scene of a crime with the fingerprint record of suspected persons, officials can establish absolute proof of the presence or identity of a person. Fingerprint is a biometric modality that is often used in a security setting. Fingerprint databases are in use worldwide for the purposes of personal identification, border control as well as to facilitate criminal forensic investigation. Many countries have multiple fingerprint databases, with each database serving a specific purpose. In Malaysia, there are at least 4 different fingerprint databases; namely PDRM-MAFIS (Polis Di Raja Malaysia- Malaysian Automated Fingerprint Identification System), PDRM-BIOFIS (Polis...

This has made it quite imperative for contracting parties to analyse project delays for purposes of making right decisions on potential time and/or cost compensation claims. Over the years, existing delay analysis techniques (DATs) for aiding this decision-making have been helpful but have not succeeded in curbing the high incidence of disputes associated with delay claims resolutions. A major source of the disputes lies with the limitations and capabilities of the techniques in their practical use. Developing a good knowledge of these aspects of the techniques is of paramount importance in understanding the real problematic issues involved and their improvement needs. This paper seeks to develop such knowledge and understanding (as part of a wider research work) via: an evaluation of the most common DATs based on a case study, a review of the key relevant issues often not addressed by the techniques, and...

In this lab, you will draw a relationship diagram for two of the steps shown. Keep in mind when you are trying to decide which side of the relationship should be the "one" side and which should be the "many" that you must first decide which side has the primary key, or unique identifier. Once you have decided the primary key of the relationship, you have identified the "one" side of the relationship. Note that for an RD, the foreign key "many" side of the relationship points to the primary key "one" side. The "one" side should have the arrowhead point of the connecting line. This is different than an entity/relationship diagram (ERD) that we will draw next week, where the "many" side has crow's feet. This will familiarize you with how to set up MS Visio to draw database diagrams. Steps 1 - 3 below use the Customer, Order, and Employee tables of a simplified Order Entry database. The Customer table records clients who have placed orders. The Order table contains the basic facts about customer orders. The Employee table contains facts...

...-1 - L’influence des entités régionales dans le processus politique national : étude du cas catalan. L'objectif de ce travail de recherche est de démontrer qu’en raison de son glissement vers un Etat fédéral et en dépit de réels mécanismes de représentation territoriale des Communautés Autonomes au sein des Institutions nationales, la participation de la Catalogne au processus législatif s’est organisée sous la forme d’un assemblage complexe de relations formelles et informelles menées entre les partis nationaux et régionalistes tant au niveau national qu’autonomique et lui ayant permis - dans sa course à davantage d’autonomie financière - d’exercer une influence au-delà de sa traditionnelle position de pivot aux Cortes. Les relations intergouvernementales formelles et informelles empruntent chacune des voies parallèles mais convergentes par rapport aux buts à atteindre : les relations formelles sont nouées au niveau sub-étatique entre tous les acteurs régionaux, elles ouvriront ensuite la voie à des relations informelles entre gouvernements. Ce système dual a connu des fluctuations depuis ses prémisses, captant toute la dimension de l’essor d’une capacité politique accrue de la Catalogne au sein de la sphère nationale. EXTRAIT : MOTS CLES : capacité politique régionale, relations intergouvernementales, Convergencia i Unio, semi-fédéralisme, Loi Organique de Financement des Communautés Autonomes.
