In this must-listen archived episode Susan Guthrie, Esq. is joined by Professor Stephanie Tang to unpack one of the most talked-about, and misunderstood, topics in family court: the “best interests of the child” standard. Listeners often ask what this phrase actually means when it comes to custody decisions, and as Susan and Professor Tang explore, it's far more nuanced than most realize.  From the wide-ranging factors judges consider to the pivotal role of judicial discretion, Professor Tang explains why this seemingly simple concept is actually one of the most complex aspects of family law. Whether you're a parent navigating custody, a legal professional, or just curious about how the courts operate, this episode offers a thoughtful, eye-opening perspective you won't want to miss. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Where the “best interests of the child” standard originated Family court considerations of factors related to custody hearings What judges look at when it comes to a child's professed wishes  Stephanie answers, “Can a parent request a change to custodial orders over time if they don't agree with the best interests of children's determination?”  Does the bearing of what a parent wants come into play?

Did you know that just a handful of stocks drive nearly all of the stock market's long-term gains? In this episode, we sit down with Hendrik Bessembinder to discuss his groundbreaking research on why most stocks fail to outperform Treasury bills and how a small fraction of stocks generate the most long-term market returns. Hendrik is a Professor in the Department of Finance at Arizona State University whose research focuses on market design, trading, and long-term investment performance across stock, foreign exchange, fixed income, futures, and energy markets.

Francisco Gil-White es licenciado en composición musical, Maestro en Ciencias Sociales y Biológicas y Doctor en Antropología Biológica y Cultural. Es creador del newsletter: The Management of Reality. En la tercera parte de este episodio con Francisco me enfoco en preguntarle temas de su infancia, su familia, su desarrollo emocional y su escritura. Francisco muestra la importancia de entender el pasado para dar forma al futuro y también la importancia de ver que las redes sociales no son un espacio de representación de toda la realidad, sino más bien espacios de opinión. Francisco también comparte su enfoque crítico hacia la deidad, cuestionando el sufrimiento humano y su relación confrontativa con Dios.Episodio #182 (Parte 1) Francisco Gil-White - La estructura de los paradigmas que crean realidad:  ​Spotify​, ​Apple​, ​Google​, ​YouTube Episodio #182 (Parte 2) Francisco Gil-White - Ciencias y Pseudociencias de la Salud:  Spotify​, ​Apple​, ​Google​, ​YouTubePagina web: managementofreality.comArtículos de Francisco Gil-White: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/cf_dev/AbsByAuth.cfm?per_id=2221745Instagram: @franciscogilwhite

Designing a robust portfolio requires considerable expertise, data, and experience. And while there are plenty of published articles that can guide how you build your portfolio, they are not investment solutions by themselves. Wei Dai is the Head of Investment Research and Vice President at Dimensional Fund Advisors, and she joins us today for a comprehensive and informative conversation on portfolio design for higher returns. Her background includes a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Statistics, Operations research, and Financial Engineering from Princeton. She has also earned a bachelor's degree in mathematics and applied mathematics from Zhejiang University. Her work has been published in multiple journals, including The Financial Analysts Journal. She has also collaborated on articles with esteemed figures such as Professor Robert C. Merton and Robert Novy-Marx. In our conversation with Wei, we explore the contents of these articles, key findings from research conducted by Dimensional Fund Advisors, and how they are implementing this knowledge in their portfolios. We discuss the fundamental aspects of portfolio design, like expected return, risk, and costs, with Wei providing a detailed breakdown of each subject. There's a lot to be learned from today's conversation, and while things get pretty technical, you are in very capable hands! Tune in for a fascinating dive into the latest research on portfolio design and much more.   Key Points From This Episode:   (0:03:37) The main risk premiums that Dimensional Fund Advisors target in their portfolios. (0:05:42) How long-term drivers of returns vary across different regions: an overview of the tests and outcomes they've seen at Dimensional Fund Advisors. (0:07:15) Unpacking whether the value premium differs from the profitability premium across regions; why it makes sense to be globally diversified. (0:08:57) Typical approaches to a multi-premium strategy in a portfolio: a rundown of the three approaches they take at Dimensional and the trade-offs between each. (0:13:44) How they evaluate portfolios at Dimenstional: the benefits of taking a holistic, integrated approach, and instances where that doesn't make sense. (0:17:24) Weighting schemes: Dimensional's approach to assigning individual security weights to achieve the desired level of exposure and how investments factor into weights. (0:26:46) Advice on how investors should decide whether to currency hedge their foreign asset exposures, and insights on how to approach currency hedging. (0:30:42) Premium timing: Why timing exposure to premiums is so tempting; parameters that must be defined to implement timing strategies; and which strategies worked in their research. (0:39:21) Valuation ratios: why it theoretically makes sense that they would be related to differences in expected returns and why they aren't useful in timing premiums. (0:42:11) An overview of the main implications for pursuing premiums that arise from Dimensional's research. (0:44:10) Diversification and how to improve your odds of capturing return premiums. (0:46:38) The tradeoff between concentration and expected returns, and defining the optimal balance. (0:49:06) What investors should look for when choosing a systematic investment manager, why not all systematic strategies are created equal, and Dimemsional's approach. (0:52:52) The downsides of performance fees, specifically for systematic managers and what it was like writing a paper with Robert Merton. (0:57:41) How short-term reversals differ from momentum, ways that reversals are related to liquidity, and how reversals vary across different stocks.

How should the law govern AI? Those concerned about existential risks often push either for bans or for regulations meant to ensure that AI is developed safely - but another approach is possible. In this episode, Gabriel Weil talks about his proposal to modify tort law to enable people to sue AI companies for disasters that are "nearly catastrophic".

Economist and author Art Carden is certainly no stranger to the Libertarian Christian Podcast, with this episode marking his seventh appearance on the show. This time, he joins Doug Stuart to discuss his latest book, Strangers With Candy: Observations from the Ordinary Business of Life, in which Art highlights a simple economic fact: buying candy from strangers is commonplace in any modern economy. Before diving into the book, Art and Doug spend some time discussing economics more broadly. Art walks us through the story of how he first became interested in economics, going on to explain and clarify a number of misconceptions surrounding the discipline. Drawing from his book, Art suggests that economists are to blame for many of these misconceptions, as they often do a bad job explaining the economics of how the world works. In Strangers With Candy, Art intends to rectify this issue, offering an accessible and easily digestible analysis of how economics impacts and shapes our day-to-day lives. This episode gives listeners a taste of Art's analysis, as well as discussion on a variety of related and intriguing topics, such as municipal development policy, economic growth vs economic progress, and Art's argument for why business is a public service. If you're interested in anything mentioned above, tune in now! Art Carden is a professor of economics at Samford University's Brock School of Business. He has worked with and contributed to a number of other organizations, including the American Institute for Economic Research, the Institute for Faith, Work, and Economics, the Beacon Center of Tennessee, the Independent Institute, and the Foundation for Economic Education.

Join Dr. Mary Anne Franks as she unpacks the complexities of civil rights, technology, and online harm, shedding light on the urgent need for change in the digital landscape. Gain valuable insights into the legal and ethical dimensions of these issues and explore potential solutions for a safer and more responsible online world.  Dr. Mary Anne Franks is a renowned legal scholar, expert, author, activist, media commentator, and law professor. She recently joined the George Washington University School of Law as the Eugene L. and Barbara A. Bernard Professor in Intellectual Property, Technology, and Civil Rights Law. Prior to that, she taught at the University of Miami School of Law as the Michael R. Klein Distinguished Scholar Chair.  Dr. Franks teaches classes that delve into cutting-edge and feminist legal theories about First Amendment law, Second Amendment law, criminal law, criminal procedure, family law, and law, and technology. And her scholarly work focuses on online harassment, free speech, discrimination, and violence. She also serves as President and Legislative and Technology Policy Director of the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative (CCRI - www.cybercivilrights.org),  a non-profit organization that works to combat online abuses that threaten civil rights and civil liberties. Its vision is a world in which law, policy, and technology align to ensure the protection of civil rights and civil liberties for all. CCRI turns 10 years old in August 2023.  Dr. Franks' work in advocating for legislative, technological, and social reform on the issue of nonconsensual pornography ("revenge porn") has been instrumental in drafting state legislation against the practice in the U.S. She has worked tirelessly on a federal criminal bill, first the Intimate Privacy Protection Act (IPPA), which evolved into the ENOUGH Act, and again into the SHIELD Act, which is still in the works.  In May 2019, Dr. Franks published The Cult of the Constitution: Our Deadly Devotion to Guns and Free Speech (https://www.amazon.com/Cult-Constitution-Mary-Anne-Franks/dp/1503603229), which won a gold medal at the 2020 Independent Publisher Book Awards as well as the 2020 Association of American Publishers PROSE Award for Legal Studies and Excellence in Social Sciences. She is presently working on her second book, Fearless Speech.  In this interview, Dr. Franks reflects on the progress made over the past decade in raising awareness about the non-consensual disclosure of intimate images, social media harms, and how to combat both the misconceptions and the grave consequences faced by those at the mercy of big tech and lobbyists (often the same). She opines on the various legal terminology as it's developed, as well as the legal framework that has emerged in both tort law (products liability) and privacy law.   The conversation also delves into the broader spectrum of online abuses, including social media addiction, mob mentality, stalking, sexual extortion (or “sextortion”), and defamation, to name a few. Dr. Franks explains how social media platforms amplify the scale and reach of bad online actors engaged in internet-based abuses, as well as the critical role of social media platforms in combating social media harms.  At the center of much of the social media liability debate is Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996. The law includes two main provisions. The first provision, known as the "Good Samaritan" provision, grants immunity to platforms that take action in good faith to moderate or remove content that they consider objectionable or harmful. This provision encourages platforms to engage in content moderation without fear of legal repercussions.  The second provision protects platforms from being treated as the publisher or speaker of the user-generated content. This means that even if a platform chooses not to moderate or remove certain content, it cannot be held liable for that content as if it had created or endorsed it.  CDA 230 has been a subject of debate and controversy in recent years, as some argue that it allows platforms to evade responsibility for harmful content, while others maintain that it is crucial for enabling free expression and innovation on the internet. The law has faced calls for reform and revision to address issues such as online harassment, misinformation, and the spread of illegal content. According to Dr. Franks, at the core of this debate is the need to question whether the level of immunity Section 230 provides to internet intermediaries is justified.  While she acknowledges the challenges faced by social media platforms in moderating an enormous volume of user-generated content, Dr. Franks suggests that platforms should in fact be held responsible based on their knowledge, intent, and contribution to harmful actions. There are, however, concerns about the lack of proactive measures implemented by social media platforms, as well as the lack of incentives for platforms to prioritize user safety. Dr. Franks underlines the necessity of holding platforms accountable and creating safer online environments, particularly for minors. She emphasizes the need to reevaluate current legislation and industry practices to align them with the collective responsibility of reducing harm and promoting user well-being.

In episode 182 of America Adapts, Doug Parsons host Mark Nevitt, a former Navy Jag and now Law professor at Emory University.  Mark shares his insights on the intersection of law and climate change. They discuss how US laws were created during a much more stable climate and how the legal system has not kept up with the current climate moment. The takings clause in the US Constitution is now relevant for climate change and Mark and Doug dig into this issue. Mark also considers his military experience good preparation to get into climate adaptation. We also discuss whether judges should recuse themselves if they are climate skeptics and should we amend the US Constitution to address important adaptation issues. Also, what would happen if the President declared a national emergency around climate change. Join us for this fascinating discussion on the challenges and opportunities at the intersection of law and climate change. Topics covered: ·         Mark's military background in the Navy and military justice informs his perspective on climate change adaptation. ·         US laws were created during a time of more stable climate, which poses legal uncertainties for climate adaptation measures. ·         The takings clause in the US Constitution is relevant to climate change adaptation.  ·         Cities that commit funding for infrastructure are now liable to maintain it, even in the face of long-term climate impacts.  ·         Climate skeptics may pose a challenge to legal decisions in climate adaptation cases, raising questions about judge recusal. ·         Is there a need to amend the US Constitution to address important adaptation issues? ·         Without a change in legal doctrine, climate adaptation will default to unmanaged retreat, exacerbating existing inequalities. ·         A declaration of a national emergency around climate change by the President could help to spur action on climate adaptation.  ·         The 5th Amendment presents challenges for implementing many climate adaptation measures due to its provisions on property rights and compensation.

Can law, order, and defense be provided on the market? Why can't they be normal goods? We are joined by economist Edward Stringham to discuss his fascinating work on free market anarchism and private governance. Stringham examines the economic of government from an Austrian perspective, and clearly shows how the world is increasingly relying on private voluntary legal and defense services rather than inefficient monopolies. We also apply these ideas to examine the concept of public health, and Stringham's work at the American Institute for Economic Research on the Great Barrington Declaration.ReferencesBook: Private Governance: Creating Order in Economic and Social Life - https://www.amazon.com/Private-Governance-Creating-Economic-Social/dp/0199365164 Book: Anarchy and The Law: The Political Economy of Choice - https://www.amazon.com/Anarchy-Law-Political-Economy-Independent/dp/1412805791 Great Barrington Declaration - https://gbdeclaration.org/ SSRN papers - https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/cf_dev/AbsByAuth.cfm?per_id=685664 Coronavirus and Economic Crisis, AIER - https://www.aier.org/product/coronavirus-and-economic-crisis/ Private Policing in San Francisco - https://www.independent.org/publications/article.asp?id=2672 Edward's Twitter - https://twitter.com/edstringham Edward's Website - https://edwardpeterstringham.wordpress.com/ Edward's Profile on AIER - https://www.aier.org/people/edward-peter-stringham/ Enjoyed this episode?

In this guest episode, Irina and Michelle have the chance to sit down with Californian criminal law professor Erin Sheley who found love (and indeed, a fiance) on Bumble after dating app adventures across North America. While last time we had Catgate, this week's episode brings us Fishgate: this vegetarian scholar and her avid fisherman date from the apps did NOT see eye to eye when it comes to how many fish are okay to kill in a year. Erin also tells the tale of how a man tried to throw her on the train tracks in Calgary and how an intrepid cowboy intervened just in time to save her life! We will discuss the difficulties in settling down romantically as an itinerant academic, so come join us on this journey from DC to Canada, Oklahoma, Dallas, and finally San Diego. Also, what exactly was that guy planning to do on their car ride if Erin hadn't sent his info to her friends in advance? Can even a criminal law professor stay safe from crime by strangers on the Internet?

Emphasis Added is a podcast by the Houston Law Review. Check out this episode in video on our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDK03FEAP2lTdm4syp02ChAOn this month's episode of Emphasis Added, I spoke with University of Houston Law Center Professor Douglas Moll about fraud and closely held corporations in the context of Theranos, a biotech company that was once valued at $10 billion, and is now worth nothing. Professor Moll teaches multiple business law courses at the University of Houston Law Center and has written multiple articles and books on civil fraud and closely held corporations. We discussed Theranos and Elizabeth Holmes's conduct as portrayed by the ABC News podcast and Hulu Series, "The Dropout," and analyzed different instances of Theranos's fraud exploring questions like when  Silicon Valley's culture of "fake it till you make it" really becomes fraudulent and how investors in a private closely held corporation are disadvantaged when things go wrong.You can find more from Professor Moll at https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/cf_dev/AbsByAuth.cfm?per_id=190549For more on the Houston Law Review, please visit houstonlawreview.orgTwitter | @HoustonLRevInstagram | @HoustonLRevFacebook | @HoustonLRevLinkedIn | The Houston Law Review

Did you know that at one point Volkswagen (VW) became the most valuable company in the world? It was a surprising event that caught virtually everyone off guard. You might be asking, “How the heck does a capital-intensive automaker become the #1 company in the world?”. Well, it's a fascinating story that involves short sellers, hedge funds and a secret plan by the Porsche family to take over VW. It also resulted in short sellers getting burned to the tune of €20 billion. Whoa! There's a research paper that examined what happened. It was written by Professor Eric Nowak and his 3 colleagues. Professor Nowak and his team went through piles of court documents to get the raw data. They painstakingly put all the info together and analyzed it to figure out what actually went on. A little about Professor Nowak: He's Professor of Finance and Head of the Institute of Finance at the Università della Svizzera italiana. He's also held visiting appointments at lots of leading universities including Stanford and the University of Chicago. A huge thank you to Professor Eric Nowak for joining me on this episode.

Dr. Richard P. Phelps is founder of the Nonpartisan Education Group, editor of Nonpartisan Education Review (http://nonpartisaneducation.org), a Fulbright Scholar, and fellow of the Psychophysics Laboratory. He has authored, or edited and co-authored Correcting Fallacies about Educational and Psychological Testing (APA); Standardized Testing Primer (Peter Lang); Defending Standardized Testing (Psychology Press); Kill the Messenger (Transaction), and several statistical compendia. Phelps has worked with several test development organizations, including ACT, AIR, ETS, the OECD, Pearson, and Westat. He holds degrees from Washington, Indiana, and Harvard Universities, and a PhD in Public Policy from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.   In this episode, Therese Markow and Dr. Richard Phelps discuss the education system in the United States, especially in comparison with Western Europe and other industrialized societies. They look at how Common Core, No Child Left Behind, and the changes to the SAT test have affected the curriculum, learning, and student preparedness both for further education as well as life after school. These trends in educational standards and standardized tests continue to impede our students compared to those of the industrialized world. Students from all levels and backgrounds are affected by these programs and the changes that need to be made are discussed.    Key Takeaways: The U.S. is falling behind other countries, even those with less spending on education. Common Core and No Child Left Behind have caused progress to be lost in elementary and secondary education standards. The SAT has become less of an aptitude test and more of an achievement test, and can discriminate against talented students from underrepresented groups that attended lower quality high schools.   "Most information is not on the world wide web, much of what is there is wrong, and search rankings are easily manipulated by money and interests." —  Dr. Richard Phelps   Connect with Dr. Richard Phelps:  Twitter: https://twitter.com/RichardPPhelps Website: https://richardphelps.net/ &https://nonpartisaneducation.org/ Research Gate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Richard_Phelps SSRN Scholarly Papers: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/cf_dev/AbsByAuth.cfm?per_id=1592150 Academia: https://204.academia.edu/RichardPhelps LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardpphelps/ LinkedIn Learning: https://www.slideshare.net/search/slideshow?searchfrom=header&q=Richard+P+Phelps   Connect with Therese: Website:  www.criticallyspeaking.net Twitter: @CritiSpeak Email: theresemarkow@criticiallyspeaking.net

We all think we understand sin taxes, but do we really? Sin taxes are typically excise taxes that target behaviors that we want to discourage. Common examples include taxes on booze, sugar, and cigarettes.   Do we legalize certain activities and substances just so we can tax them? What's the intention behind sin taxes, and are they really working as intended? On today's episode of the Taxgirl podcast, Kelly is joined by Thomas Shohfi to chat about the nuances of sin taxes. Thomas is an assistant professor in the Lally School of Management at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He recently conducted a study on sin taxes with some surprising results.  Listen to Kelly and Thomas talk about the consequences of sin taxes:What are the details of Thomas's research on sin taxes, and what were some of the interesting highlights that came from the study? The study focuses on New York City taxi drivers, and under which circumstances they add certain rates to their fares.  When it comes to cigarettes, how might the difference in taxation on a single pack vary from state to state, and how can that alter a smoker's behavior? What are the governmental implications and social consequences of this particular sin tax? Thomas speculates that there are many unintended consequences and “third party effects” that stem from sin taxes, and that much more research into the subject is needed. For addiction-related issues in particular, such as gambling and cigarettes, there are many potential disruptions and unseen consequences that may come from long term implementation of sin taxes. Does making the cost of gambling higher actually help a gambling addict to get help? Does increasing the cost of a pack of cigarettes really dissuade a lifelong smoker?  What about marijuana? Many sin taxes are placed on substances and activities that are currently legal today, that didn't used to be (such as booze). We legalize it, we tax it. But what is the right amount of taxation? Is it a paradox to legalize a substance, only to slap on a tax meant to discourage the use of that substance?  Governments can easily put together calculated projections for taxes based on sales of particular goods. But long term research and statistics on sin taxes can become far more complex. How does Thomas suggest researchers pitch these studies, and how might they be organized or funded in the future? How might the existence of sin taxes affect people's opinions on the activities and substances themselves? What do people think about people who partake in those behaviors, what do people think about a government that classifies certain things as taxable “sins,” and how do they draw ideological lines in the political sands?  What behaviors does Thomas think may be taxed in the future? Kelly and Thomas discuss sex work, on OnlyFans in particular, and what a sin tax on the platform might look like.  More about Kelly: Kelly is the creator and host of the Taxgirl podcast series. Kelly is a practicing tax attorney with considerable experience and knowledge. She works with taxpayers like you every day. One of the things that she does is help folks out of tax jams, and hopefully, keep others from getting into them.

Lecture summary: This lecture puts forward the conceptual argument that the transformative goals of the Convention for the Elimination of Discrimination Against (CEDAW), which require states to eradicate root causes of injustice, can be made more effective not only through legislation and policy, as commonly argued, but through the judiciary. It highlights the need to develop the content and scope of transformative judicial obligations under CEDAW based on a comparative study of judicial decisions dealing with the abuse of female migrant domestic workers (MDWs) in three key MDW destinations that are CEDAW parties—Hong Kong, Singapore, and Malaysia. By engaging with scholarship on CEDAW’s positive obligations, transformative equality, and theories of adjudication, it argues that criminal law courts should not only ensure the accountability and punishment of perpetrators but also ascertain and critique the laws, policies, and practices enabling MDW abuse in judicial decisions. While there is much scholarship on the nature of MDW abuse and regulation of domestic work, there has yet to be a CEDAW-focused comparative analysis of case law dealing with such abuse. This research thus addresses a gap in academic debates on MDW rights and the types of positive obligations owed by courts under CEDAW. Dr. Cheah W.L. is Assistant Professor at the Faculty of Law of the National University of Singapore (NUS) since 2007. She holds academic qualifications from the National University of Singapore (LL.B., LL.M.), Harvard Law School (LL.M.), and Oxford University (D.Phil). She conducts research in the core disciplines of international criminal law, transitional justice, and human rights law with a focus on the intersections of law, culture, and power. Within these areas, her research explores the diverse and complex roles performed by domestic and international criminal courts beyond their paradigm aim of adjudicating on the guilt or otherwise of those charged with criminal offences. Her work has been accepted for publication in journals such as the Leiden Journal of International Law, European Journal of International Law, Michigan Journal of International Law, Journal of International Criminal Justice, Human Rights Quarterly, and Harvard Human Rights Journal.

Prof. Takacs: America is the only Western democracy not to have any climate change laws! President Biden attended the Glasgow Climate Conference, COP26, with much fanfare, suggesting that America could lead the fight against climate change by the power of its example. But as Professor David Takacs explains the history of America's climate change commitments in this episode, the U.S. doesn't come out quite the exemplary leader to spearhead this enormous effort. Ask yourself this: how did the U.S. handle the Kyoto Protocol? Or the Paris Agreement? But surely, you may say, that even though the U.S. has disappointed the international community in the past when it comes to climate change, we've done a great job back home... right? No. Not right! The United States of America, the biggest historical polluter of greenhouse gases, is the only Western democracy not to have any climate change laws. In this podcast episode, Professor Takacs explains how our federal government's climate policies are implemented in the absence of laws, and the real and political ramifications of this lack of laws on climate. Professor Takacs further teaches us that rules and laws won't do any good, and they may not even pass, without the participation of those who are negatively impacted by our shift to a low or zero carbon emission economy. As he tells it, we need a just transition for workers that will lose their jobs due to our efforts to combat climate change. To learn more about Professor Takacs's important scholarship and contributions to climate studies, visit his academic homepage at U.C. Hastings College of the Law (link: https://www.uchastings.edu/people/david-takacs/), and read his numerous publications and book (link: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/cf_dev/AbsByAuth.cfm?per_id=1393231).

One last point, in addition to teaching law, Professor Takacs has a Ph.D. in the history of science and has taught undergraduates for a decade. Prior to that, he has spent time in Keyna and Senegal and witnessed climate change firsthand. In this episode, he shares the depth of his expertise and breadth of experience with us.

​In this episode, Dr Rachel Killean, Prof. Chris McCrudden and Ms Boravin Tann discuss some of the challenges associated with defining human dignity and what they have learned so far about the concept's diverse meanings in Cambodia. Since its inclusion in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1949, ‘human dignity' has become a foundational human rights concept. It can be found in international human rights documents, in judicial reasoning in multiple jurisdictions and increasingly in the context of sustainable development programmes around the world. Yet, what human dignity means in practice is by no means so obvious. In fact, understandings of what human dignity requires are often widely varied and contested. In this episode, Dr Rachel Killean, Prof. Chris McCrudden and Ms Boravin Tann dig into some of these complexities. Reflecting on their recent research project ‘Locating Human Dignity in Cambodia', they discuss some of the challenges associated with defining human dignity and what they have learned so far about the concept's diverse meanings in Cambodia. Dr Rachel Killean is a Senior Lecturer in the Queen's School of Law and the Principal Investigator on the ‘Locating Human Dignity in Cambodia' project.

On July 6, Father Stan Swamy, a Jesuit priest and tribal rights activist died in custody. Last year, he was arrested in a case related to 2017 Bhima Koregaon violence in Pune. Father Swamy had Parkinson's disease and was detected with Covid-19 in May.  Why is it hard for someone as old as Stan Swamy to get bail. Suno India's Menaka Rao spoke to advocate Abhinav Sekhri, a criminal lawyer based in Delhi, and is on retainer with Internet Freedom Foundation. He writes extensively on criminal law and runs a blog called Proof of Guilt. He recently wrote a paper on the bail regime in the country and how it is antithetical to the core principle in our criminal justice system- that an accused is innocent until proven guilty.  Show notes: Elgaar parishad case: Stan Swamy dead The Bailable v.
