Good-Faith Rule against Abusing Process by Multiplying Action

Abstract Investor-State tribunals are equipped with lis pendens, res judicata, abuse of process, and adverse cost orders to ensure that parties are not twice vexed for the same issue or to minimize the harm from multiplying action. When abuse of process is applied to a parallel or successive arbitration, it is considered whether the later action could have been joined, consolidated or coordinated with an earlier one and whether there is a reasonable basis for bringing a separate action. The good faith question surrounds the accused’s intent or purpose, which can be measured subjectively if there is an intent to harm or objectively in the absence of reasonable basis. Raising the question of abuse thus involves asking whether the accused acted in good faith. But where lis pendens and res judicata do not apply, there is a colorable basis for the claim and sensible grounds for advancing with separate proceedings, the claimant is within right to bring further action. The good faith element of abuse reaches the middle ground between the claimant’s interest in accessing the arbitral forum and the respondent’s interest in being free from vexation.

On Peirce’s Earliest Conception of Metaphysics

In this paper, I explore Peirce’s initial conception of metaphysics as developed in his “Treatise on Metaphysics” (1861–2: W 1.57–84). Peirce claimed therein that the idea of metaphysics was three-fold, with its three perspectives consisting of its definition, object, and method. Since Peirce defined metaphysics as the “philosophy of primal truths” (1861: W 1.59), I initially focus on elaborating upon what these “primal truths” are and illustrate that they are analytical propositions resulting from the logical analysis of the general constitution of a mental state (an image) to its elements. Next, I give account of how Peirce’s thoughts regarding the justification of metaphysical propositions resulted in his concluding that in metaphysical knowledge, like in any other, there is an element of faith. Finally, I conclude with remarks regarding Peirce’s notion of reflexivity as it is employed in his metametaphysics.

The Existence of Forests in Japanese Belief (Sociology Literature Study of Anime Miyori no Mori)

This research discusses the environmental issues and their relationship with the Japanese beliefs described in Japanese visual literature: anime Miyori no Mori. This animation story is full of messages about environmental preservation and environmental issues. The story Miyori no Mori teaches the audiences (especially children) the importance of protecting the forest and the impacts that will arise when the forest is destroyed and clearly illustrates how the forest is related to god’s spirits in Japanese belief. This research aims to reveal the elements of that belief through the existence of the forest depicted in the anime Miyori no Mori. Qualitative approaches and sociology literature study as research methods analyses forests’ critical role in Japanese people’s beliefs. The research examined includes the elements of faith depicted in the anime Miyori no Mori, such as the role of gods, the existence of ancestral spirits, and even monsters in that forest. As a result, it will be known how important the role of forests is as part of the Japanese people’s belief. It can be a solid reason for upholding environmental preservation, mainly to prevent their environment from covid-19 effects.

Faith Community Nursing: Faith Element Enhances Cardiovascular Risk Reduction Program Outcomes.

The high prevalence of hypertension among African Americans makes faith-based education programs culturally appropriate. Faith-enhanced health education is a way to reach these often healthcare-disenfranchised populations. With Every Heartbeat is Life (WEHL), a community-based heart health program, was enhanced with Scripture and prayer for this project. The program took place in an African American nondenominational church. The Scripture-enhanced WEHL program emphasized biblical teachings of self-care with standard lessons on nutrition, exercise, smoking cessation, and disease management interventions that increased knowledge of hypertension and associated cardiovascular risks.

“That You May Know”. The Preface to Luke’s Gospel (Lk 1:1–4)

The preface to Luke’s Gospel (cf. Lk 1:1–4) has been the object of extensive debate, especially since the publication of the thesis of L. Alexander who maintained that the preface should be treated not so much as historiographic but scientific. For years, therefore, the discussion has been focused on the literary genre of the preface. This article seeks to explore the question, recalling, briefly, the research of the twentieth century up to the present day. It starts out with Cadbury, examines Alexander’s volume, reviews the positions of her critics, and concludes that, although the Oxford scholar highlighted a series of important texts for comparison, her neat opposition between historiographical and scientific prefaces does not stand up to critical control. At this point, there is a re-examination of the ancient examples, comparing them with Luke. Then, Luke’s preface is analysed according to the criteria of narrative analysis, highlighting the text’s many semantic and syntactical ambiguities. A careful philological study shows that many of the preface’s terms and expressions are ambiguous since they support at least two different interpretations. Proceeding as if on shifting sand, the reader has more questions than certainties, but, ironically, he is brought to recognise the truth of the element of faith into which he has been initiated. Why, then, does Luke choose to begin his work in such an ambiguous way? What is the effect on his reader of an initial frame that is so deliberately obscure? The various questions find their complete answer only in the episode of the Emmaus disciples (cf. Lk 24:13–35) where the same logic re-emerges: the reader is brought from lack of recognition to the effective recognition of Jesus in the form of faith.

Religious Artefacts, Practices and Symbols in the Johane Masowe Chishanu yeNyenyedzi Church in Zimbabwe: Interpreting the Visual Narratives

This study was carried out at a time when most African Indigenous Churches (AICs) in southern Africa were busy rebranding their spirituality and theology. This rebranding was as a result of serious competition in an environment where a new church was emerging every day. Thus, we argue that, due to this religious contestation, the Johane Masowe Chishanu yeNyenyedzi (JMCN) Church has inculcated/borrowed certain religious artefacts, symbols and practices which had never been part of African Christianity in Africa. As a result, this religious movement has inculcated certain African/Islamic religious objects of faith in a bid to demonstrate inclusivism and religious tolerance. In this paper, we discuss the JMCN Church’s religious artefacts, symbols and practices such as clay pots (mbiya), big clay pots (makate), the wooden staff, decorated religious flags, congregating on Fridays and the use of crescent and star as its religious symbols. Artefacts, symbols and practices are borrowed from both African Traditional Religions (ATRs) and Islam. However, what remains critical in this study, is whether the JMCN Church, after its inculcation of such African traditional religious and Islamic religious elements of faith retains the tag, “a Christian church,” in the rightful sense of the traditional taxonomy of the term, “Christian church,” even though the movement itself claims to be a Christian church in Zimbabwe.

PENGARUH KETERAMPILAN WIRAUSAHA DAN SPIRITUALITAS TERHADAP KINERJA ORGANISASI UKM SEKTOR KULINER DI KOTA SURABAYA

Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) is one important element in boosting the Indonesian economy, especially in the culinary sector. The Indonesian Agency for Creative Economyreleased data in 2015 the contribution of the creative economy to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Rp 852 trillion and 8.2 million units are creative industries, and 68% are in the culinary sector and contribute to the GDP of 41.69%.On the other hand, the existence of SMEs must be supported by entrepreneurial abilities that are reflected in entrepreneurial skills as well as the characteristics of Indonesian society that attach elements of faith through spirituality. This research aims to analyze and describe the influence of entrepreneurial skills and spirituality variables on organizational performance in SMEs. This research approach is quantitative with a questionnaire instrument. Data processing uses multiple linear regression statistical analysis. The study was conducted at the Culinary Tourism Center of Al Akbar Mosque, located on Jalan Menanggal with a period of September - October 2019. After going through descriptive statistical testing, it is known that the entrepreneurial skills variable has a beta value of 0.225 with a significance level of 0.192 and> 0.05 so that the entrepreneurial skills variable does not affect the performance of SME organizations. For testing with spirituality variables, it is known that the beta value of 0.621 with a significance level of 0.011 <0.005 so that spirituality influences the performance of SME organizations. From the tests conducted simultaneously, the variables of entrepreneurial skills and spirituality affect the performance of SME organizations.

E se Osea non fosse esistito davvero…?

L’articolo presenta un’approfondita revisione del libro di James M. Bos Reconsidering the Date and the Provenance of the Book of Hosea. The Case for the Persian-Period Yehud, sullo sfondo del problema del neostoricismo negli studi biblici. Dopo aver tracciato una breve panoramica sul fenomeno del neostoricismo in generale (la sua genesi e il suo successivo sviluppo nel corso degli anni), viene discusso l’approccio di Bos in base al confronto con tali premesse ideologico-filosofiche. A tal proposito viene presentata in modo dettagliato l’intera struttura del libro di Bos, assieme alla valutazione critica dell’argomentazione da lui addotta. L’autore dell’articolo ritiene che l’approccio neostoricista alla Bibbia sia del tutto soggettivo e sbagliato, in quanto assolutizza un principio filosofico e non lascia spazio per caso, dubbio o fede.

IMPLIKASI PENYANDINGAN SALAT DAN ZAKAT PERSPEKTIF SEMIOTIKA

The Qur'an has the structure and rules of language that are part of its i'jaz (miracle). It has a deep meaning, even a secret in every syntactic structure. One of them is the mention of salat and zakat in many verses. The mention of these two services suggests that certain objectives are not merely literal interpretations. Therefore, in-depth studies are needed to look for reason and meaning contained therein. To achieve this goal, this research uses the semiotics method, which emphasizes its discussion on the sign system to look for the meaning that is in the marker. From searches conducted related to the theme of the discussion, 27 verses were found that contain the words salat and zakat together in one place. The verses are found in one concept, which is about faith in God. Nevertheless, the mention of salat and zakat in various verses has a different context. First, concerning the Children of Israel. Second, regarding the formation of faith through deeds. Third, the context related to jihad efforts. Fourth, signs of believers. Fifth, efforts to repent. And sixth, as an intermediary get mercy. This study also found that the mention of salat and zakat together and related to the element of faith indicated that salat and zakat were suggestions for connecting God, humans, and society in a circle. This shows that this study provides a reinforcing argument in the arguments of Toshihiko Izutsu.

Toward the classification of normalized integral table algebras generated by a faithful non-real element of degree 3 with (I)

The classification of integral table algebras (A, B) generated by a faithful element of degree 2 with was completed by Blau in 1995. After that, it is an interesting topic to classify integral table algebras generated by a faithful non-real element of degree 3 with But it is difficult, so Arad and Chen et al. in 2005 and 2011 studied normalized integral table algebras generated by a faithful non-real element of degree 3 by assuming and they almost classified such table algebras. Here the authors continue this work but not assuming Communicated by Miriam Cohen

Implementation of the Doctrine of Good Faith (Bona Fides) in Corporate Legal Relations

Good faith (bona fides) is presented in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation as a general principle and presumption. In resolving corporate disputes, the courts are governed by general principles of good faith. However, corporate relations have a specificity due to, inter alia, the variety of corporate forms. It can be assumed that the application of good faith provisions should also vary taking into account the characteristics of corporate patterns, the types and forms of corporate relations, subjective internal corporate circumstances. Common law countries have developed a system of good faith elements and special tests to apply the required requirement of good faith according to the context. A special place is given to fiduciary relations as a product of bona fides. The author has carried out a comparative analysis of the provisions of the Plenums of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation and the law enforcement practice of Germany, the USA, Great Britain and Canada on the issues of good faith in the consideration of corporate disputes. Special attention is paid to the interrelation between corporate ethics and law. Examining a number of key cases from the law-enforcement practice of the courts of the Anglo-American system of law, the author substantiates the possibility of applying special tests, namely, objective and subjective good faith tests, to regulate matters related to the application of the rules of good faith from the Civil Code and special laws in dealing with corporate disputes. Special attention is paid to the role of courts and permissible discretion in the formation of standards of enforcement of blanket norms and general principles of law in corporate relations.

Protestant Missionaries Perspectives on the Arab Orthodox and Orthodoxy at the Turn of the 20th Century

Some centuries after the onset of European missionaries to the East and their competition over winning converts, Protestants started their missionary work at the turn of the nineteenth century in an East which was then under the Ottoman Rule. From Aleppo to Palestine, they eventually promulgated across the entire Near and Middle East, with the purpose of instilling in the population there — both Muslim and Christian — what they believed to be the “true” Christian faith. In fact, their claim revolved around their firm conviction that both Catholics and Orthodox have gone astray in their basic elements of faith, which in turn have always dissuaded the Moslems to accept Christianity as the true religion. From primary protestant sources, this paper will focus on their perspective regarding the “degrading” Orthodox faith, and their “shallow” clerics and “obsolete” established traditions.

Intertextual Study Of The 'Aqidah Al-'Awām

This study aimed to describe the conception of aqidah (creed) in the book ‘Aqīdah al-‘Awām by Sayyid Ahmad Al-Marzuqi. This book is taught in Al-Ihya Ulumaddin Islamic Boarding School, Cilacap, Central Java. The teaching of the book ‘Aqīdah al-‘Awām in Al-Ihya Ulumaddin Islamic Boarding, Cilacap, is one of the efforts to keep and maintain the aqidah of the students in the boarding school. The method used in this study was philology which was conducted in several steps, namely; identifying manuscript, describing manuscript, and conducting a content analysis of the manuscript. The results suggested that the conception of aqeeidah in the Book ‘Aqīdah al-‘Awām includes knowledge of the attributes of Allah (God), of Prophets/Messengers, Angels, Holy Book, and Day of Judgment. Aqeedah is a basic element of faith of a Muslim. Aqeedah must always be kept and maintained so as not to be lost or destructed by the influence of the environment. In addition, the book ‘Aqīdah al-‘Awām also contains the stories of the family of Prophet Muhammad, and Isra' Mi'raj. The matan of this book was written by Sayid Ahmad al-Marzuqi al-Maliki. This book has been given for explanations or comments (syarah) by various parties, among them, Sheikh Nawawi al-Bantani with Nuruz Zalam book, Bisri Mustafa with Rawihat al-Aqwam book, and Muhammad Ihya' Ulumiddin with the Syarah ‘Aqīdah al-‘Awām book. In addition, based on this book, there has also been written another book of which contents were taken from some of the contents of the book ‘Aqīdah al-‘Awām, for example, the Niyat Ingsun Ngaji book written by KH. Badawi Hanafi from Al-Ihya Ulumaddin Islamic Boarding School, Cilacap, Central Java.

Les tuteurs de résilience dans un univers juif orthodoxe. Partie II

After defining the salient features (“marqueurs”) of a Jewish orthodox society (part I) we try to expose the resilient factors for this microsociety. To this end, we are reflecting on the link between salient features (“marqueurs”) and resilient factors (“facteurs de resilience”). ObjectivesWe emphasize this microsociety's resilient factors and we hypothesize the following idea: what about disembodied tutors? the resilient factors could be not embodied values in a world merely based on belief. MethodAfter describing this world (“Resilience tutors … - part I”), we asked them about a difficult par of their life: the Holocaust. Thus, in a situation of transmission to their children, we perceive the resilient features. They exercised self-censorship (don’t speak about the worst events, the worst sensations, the worst feelings), but they wish to express the basis of their strength, that we called resilient factors. ResultsWe propose four “concepts-resilient factors” (“concepts-tuteurs de résilience”): (1) the silence of the spouse, (2) the law, (3) the filiation, (4) the daily ritual based on practicticing jewish life. DiscussionThe notion of “concept-resilient factors” is not linked to a human being who knew how to overcome the lack of an attachment pattern but to an absolute element of faith, which would give to this microsociety the ways to its proper resilience. ConclusionTo validate this hypothesis, we should generalize the study the link between faith and religion. Otherwise, the idea of conceptualized tutor is particularly interesting in a context where it's merely the faith, which put them in considerable danger.

Spiritually Responsive SBIRT in Social Work Education

Repenser la Providence sans perdre Dieu dans l’opération

À l’écoute de suggestions actuelles pour repenser la Providence, en affinité avec l’ Open Theism , cet article mène un exercice de discernement puis de reconstruction. L’examen critique porte sur trois remaniements sensibles : un transfert inaperçu de souveraineté de Dieu vers l’être humain, une autodétermination de Dieu à se laisser déterminer par ses créatures libres, une suspension de l’omniscience divine au bénéfice supposé de la liberté humaine. De tels déplacements sont mesurés à leurs lourdes conséquences. La reconstruction revisite l’affrontement des images de Dieu, païennes ou chrétienne ; puis considère les rapports étonnants entre nécessités et libertés selon l’évangile de Luc. Cela conduit à reformuler l’essentiel de la foi en la Providence suivant les trois articles du Credo , en termes de souveraineté, mystère pascal et synergie.

ANALISIS KEKUATAN UNSUR ITIKAD BAIK PADA PELAKSANAAN PENDAFTARAN MEREK DI INDONESIA (Studi Kasus Putusan Mahkamah Agung Nomor 364K/Pdt.Sus-HKI/2014) BERDASARKAN UNDANG-UNDANG NOMOR 20 TAHUN 2016

Brand is one part of intellectual property rights. Brand is an identifying mark that distinguishes one's property with another's property. However, there are many parties who have bad faith and want to be a part of other people brand’s fame. So they use the same brand name in order to make the goods produced is well-known. Brand is regulated in law number 20 2016 about brand and Geographical Indication. Therefore we need to register our brand to avoid the parties who have bad faith. The authors want to discuss the issue of the strength of good faith element in the registration of trademarks in the implementation of registration in Indonesia and also the protection for brand holders whose registration are rejected in Indonesia. Author will use normative method and refer to scientific books. The strength of good faith element in registering can be seen in Article 4 of the Trademark and Geographical Indications. For protection, brand holder can register it in advance, if it has been approve, the brand holder can submit claim cancelation that regulated in Article 77 to the Central Jakarta District Court to be reviewed and decided who the trademark is and be prove who has the element of bad faith. It is suggested that the original trademark owner's to register their trademark at brand office Indonesia. For foreign trademark owner, they can also improve their trademark to be a well-known brand.
