قاعدة استبعاد الأدلة غير المشروعة في الإجراءات الجنائية: دراسة تحليليّة في الاجتهاد القضائي للمحكمة الأوروبية لحقوق الإنسان
يتناول البحث منهج المحكمة الأوروبية في قاعدة "استبعاد الأدلة غير المشروعة في الإجراءات الجنائية"، من خلال التنقيب عن السوابق القضائية. وما إذا كانت تنظر في الأدلة غير المشروعة، أم تصرف النظر عنها. وفي حال ما إذا ثبت أنّها تنظر في تقييم مشروعية هذه الأدلة وتقدير قبولها؛ فإلى أيّ مدى تملك سلطة استبعاد تلك الأدلة؟
وتبرز أهمية البحث في بيان الضوابط القانونية التي تعتمدها المحكمة لتحديد نطاق صلاحياتها في هذه المسألة؛ سواء من حيث تقييم الدليل وتقدير قبوله، أم من حيث صلاحيات الحكم بعدم مشروعية الدليل، في حال ثبوت انتهاك حقّ من الحقوق المنصوص عليها في الاتفاقية الأوروبية لحقوق الإنسان، وخاصة الحق في محاكمة عادلة، والحق في احترام الحياة الخاصة.
يجيب البحث عن الإشكالية، منطلقًا من المستوى النظري إلى المستوى العملي، ليخلص إلى نتيجة مفادها أنه وعلى الرغم من أنّ المحكمة راقبت مشروعية الأدلة وقبولها في أحوال كثيرة؛ إلاّ أنها لم تُؤسّس لمنهجية واضحة في التعامل مع الأدلة المشروعة. ورغم أنها اعتمدت عددًا من المعايير، إلاّ أنها لم تذهب لترجيح أحدها وبلورته كمنهج حقيقي في التعامل مع الأدلة. ومع ذلك فإن السوابق القضائية تستند إلى معايير وأسس تصلح لأنْ تكون بذرة لإنشاء قواعد واضحة بخصوص قاعدة الاستبعاد، لكنّ ذلك الأمر يحتاج وقفة جادة من المحكمة تحسم بها المسألة.This research deciphers the European Court’s standing on the dictum of excluding illegally obtained evidence in criminal procedures. It seeks to look into judicial precedents that reveal the methodology followed by the European Court in this regard to see whether the Court has inclined to actually assess the obtained illegal evidence, or even draws any attention to it. If it is proven that the Court actually evaluates the legitimacy of this evidence and assesses its acceptance, the next question would be to assess the extent to which it does so, and whether the Court has the authority to exclude the evidence all together.The research seeks to clarify the legal controls adopted by the Court to determine the scope of its powers in this matter, whether in terms of evaluating the evidence and estimating its acceptance, or in terms of the powers to rule on the illegality of the evidence in the event of a violation of one of the rights stipulated in the European Convention on Human Rights, especially the right to a fair trial and the right to respect private life. This study answers the problem from the theoretical level to the practical one. Although the Court monitored the legitimacy of evidence and its acceptance in many cases, it did not establish a clear methodology for dealing with legitimate evidence. Despite the fact that that Court has adopted a number of criteria, the Court did not go as far as to suggest any as the dominant one, and it did not go further to suggest one of them and formulate it as a real approach to dealing with evidence. However, the jurisprudence of the European Court is replete with judicial precedents that are based on criteria and foundations that are suitable to serve as the base for the establishment of clear detailed regulations regarding the exclusion rule, but that needs a serious pause from the Court and a bold step by which the Court pr
Police Powers to Take and Retain DNA Samples in the Qatari Law: A Comparative Study
Chapter 1 of Pt 1 of the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 introduces a new regime governing the destruction, retention and use of fingerprints, footwear impressions, and samples and the DNA profiles derived from such samples. The purpose of the article is to explain and examine the new regime in all its complexity and, in particular, to assess whether it is compliant with the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The research shows that the 2012 Act does not afford adequate privacy protection to innocent individuals, adding pains to an already coercive process without due justification. In Qatar, the DNA Profiling Act regulates the police powers to take and retain DNA samples. The Act should be amended to comply with human rights requirements as enshrined in the Qatar Constitution 2004, in particular the right to privacy. Keywords: DNA, Privacy, Police Powers, The Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, The DNA Profiling Act 2013
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
