National Human Rights Institutions (NHRI) play an important role in monitoring and promoting international human rights norms a country. However, order to function as effective NHRI, they must adhere the “Paris Principles” of 1993. In 2023 Indian NHRI prepares renew its ’A’ grade accreditation. This offers opportunity assess effectiveness institution light aforementioned Principles. doing so au...

Accepting and treating diversity in a friendly manner is essential from Christian perspective. If nowadays progress being seen terms of accepting, respecting each other manner, then this cannot be separated the contribution faith religious ethical values adopted by believers. In context paper, author limits himself to religion. For followers Christ, whether due physical differences, skin color,...

Unfortunately the almoner was at some times and in some places betrayed into accepting a role which was entirely contrary to her principles. When the voluntary hospitals began to get into financial difficulties and patients' contributions were accepted, it was the almoner's job to see that no one paid more than they could afford. As the hard times became harder, some hospitals pressed the almon...

When in search of an explanation for the nature of philosophy, a good starting point is to inquire as to its origins. As is commonly known, Occidental philosophy originated in Ancient Greece as a substitute for mythological and religious explanations. Instead of accepting explanations of the foundations and origins of reality based on the anthropomorphic projections of mythology, the early Gree...

A COUNTEREXAMPLE TO MODUS PONENS* T HE rule of modus ponens, which tells us that from an indicative conditional rlf cjJ then 1/1 l, 1 together with its antecedent cjJ, one can infer 1/1, is one of the fundamental principles of logic. 2 Yet, as the following examples show, it is not strictly valid; there are occasions on which one has good grounds for believing the premises of an application of ...

the concepts of democracy have been around for centuries in different fields of human sciences. however, in most of these fields the idealistic and far-fetched features attributed to democracy have not been manipulated yet. it should be mentioned that there have been only a few serious attempts to find proper go-between elements, which could make such a concept as comprehensible and tangible as...

COTS procurement processes do not consider the costs imposed on users when they have to customise products. This paper presents a framework for investigating the costs and perceived benefits for users in accepting COTS products and argues that cost-benefit analysis from the user perspective should be an important part of the product procurement process. The framework describes different types o...

Categorical studies of recursive data structures and their associated reasoning principles have mostly focused on two extremes: initial algebras and induction, and final coalgebras and coinduction. In this paper we study their in-betweens. We formalize notions of alternating fixed points of functors using constructions that are similar to that of free monads. We find their use in categorical mo...

Based on theoretical analysis, first-principles calculations, and experimental observations, we establish a generic guiding principle, embodied in generalized electron counting (GEC), that governs the surface reconstruction of compound semiconductors induced by different metal adsorbates. Within the GEC model, the adsorbates serve as an electron bath, donating or accepting the right number of e...

Occupational hygienists and other health scientists should have little problem in accepting that approaches to the management of risk should be based on soundly constructed principles of risk assessment. Such thinking permeates many aspects of occupational health practice and is reflected in supporting legal frameworks, for example the Chemical Agents Directive (EC, 1998) and UK Control of Subs...
