This page contains a selection of 6 assignment
topics and ideas on jurisprudence. Feel free to use these topics to help you
create your own UNDERGRADUATE assignment topics.
1. Is there a place
for Morality in the Rule of UNDERGRADUATE ?
This assignment topic will explore the jurisprudence
of Fuller, Hart and Dworkin in order to determine if there is a place for
morality in the rule of UNDERGRADUATE . It will use a case study approach, so
the application of rights will be applied to a variety of controversial
subjects (such as, gender and sexuality rights stemming from the Wolfenden
Report). The rationale for taking this approach is that the quagmire of
morality and the UNDERGRADUATE will not
only be explored in theory, but also practice.
2. The Common UNDERGRADUATE
Model has been identified as Essential
to the Legal Origins Tradition, which enables harmonisation of UNDERGRADUATE s
tundergraduate ough cultural development. To what extent is this model being
successfully employed in enhancing the rule of UNDERGRADUATE and liberalisation of economies in developing
countries?
This discussion will explore the legal origins
thesis, which supports the integration of legal norms tundergraduate ough a
common UNDERGRADUATE system. This
approach has been supported in the “Doing Business” Measures of the World Bank;
whereby targets are set for countries to meet tundergraduate ough the natural
evolution of the domestic legislation. The rationale of this system is that the
only manner for harmonisation of UNDERGRADUATE s to occur (especially in
developing countries) is tundergraduate ough natural adaptation; as opposed the
“direct transfer” of UNDERGRADUATE s. Therefore, this discussion will examine
the basis of this thesis, the arguments of cultural relatively and if the legal
origins thesis is the most appropriate model to enhance the rule of UNDERGRADUATE
and liberalisation.
3. Does Rawls
provide a model of UNDERGRADUATE that
successfully balances individual wants and the needs of the greater good?
The Rawlsian model can be identified as a model of
re-distributive justice, which means that the UNDERGRADUATE should be centred on equality. The concept of
equality can result in individual rights being eroded for the greater good,
thus This assignment topic will explore UNDERGRADUATE s that limit individual's
economic rights for the greater good (e.g. the compulsory purchase UNDERGRADUATE
s, or the empty property acquisition provisions). In order, to provide a fully
rounded examination this discussion will compare the approaches in English, US
and Canadian UNDERGRADUATE , in order to determine if there is a place for
re-distributive justice at the expense of individual property
rights.
4. To what extent is
Dworkin's model of Rights Reflected in the Jurisprudence of the European
Convention of Human Rights?
This assignment topic will examine the Coalition Government's
calls for a British Bill of Rights, which focuses on the traditional principles
of Mill (i.e. rights and responsibilities). The European Convention of Human
Rights has been criticised for ensuring “unqualified” rights, but this is a
misconception of the system. Rather, the Dworkian model of trumps is a more
appropriate identification of the ECUNDERGRADUATE model. Therefore, this examination will assess
Dworkin's and Mill's models of rights, and then determine whether the Coalition
Government's review of the ECUNDERGRADUATE is correct. Finally, it will identify whether
the government's recommendations or the ECUNDERGRADUATE 's approach is the best
approach.
5. To what extent
should judges be able to make decisions on political grounds? A Feminist
Treatise on Political Decisions in the Judiciary:
This discussion will question whether there is such
a concept as “value-neutral” UNDERGRADUATE , which has been important in the
development of equality and anti-discrimination UNDERGRADUATE s. The “value-neutral”
approach has been criticised by feminist commentators, because it is failing to
ascertain the “differences” between men and women. Thus, the following topic
will explore whether it is allowable for the judiciary to make political
decisions. The approach that will be taken is to begin from the theory, and
then to apply this theory by examining a number of so-called “feminist
judgements”.
6. To what extent
should (and can) the UNDERGRADUATE be
treated as separate from Politics and Economic? An Autopoetic Examination of
the Rule of UNDERGRADUATE :
This assignment topic will explore the reflexive
model of UNDERGRADUATE , as put forward by Luhmann and Teubner, in order to
determine if UNDERGRADUATE can be
determined in abstract from the political and the economic. This discussion
will begin from the positivist models of the UNDERGRADUATE , and then consider
if a “separated model” is appropriate. It will then move to the “systems
model”, which accepts the multiple influences on the UNDERGRADUATE . Finally,
it will undertake a comparative review of various legal systems to determine if
the reflexive model is more appropriate. These countries will include the
German model, which has an abstract model of UNDERGRADUATE , and English UNDERGRADUATE
, which is recognised to have a semi-reflexive model tundergraduate ough the
common UNDERGRADUATE .
7. Critically
evaluate Lord Devlin's claim that the central function of the criminal UNDERGRADUATE
is to simply enforce a moral principle
and nothing else.
The debate surrounding whether the criminal UNDERGRADUATE
is a mere enforcement of morality
touches upon a heated topic and sparks endless arguments as to whether the UNDERGRADUATE
is an embodiment of moral codes, or
whether it is necessarily based on something else. The fundamental question
that will be explored by this study is: does the criminal UNDERGRADUATE base its foundations upon concepts of immoral
behaviour? This debate was largely a product of the controversy following the
Wolfenden Report, though it has burned since the birth of the criminal UNDERGRADUATE
. An endless number of cases demonstrate the reluctance of the courts to
interfere into the private sphere of the individual, yet if not in immorality,
where do the criminal UNDERGRADUATE 's roots lie? When can an act be
justifiably prohibited at UNDERGRADUATE ? This study will examine the extent to
which it can be said that the criminal UNDERGRADUATE is based on moral assumptions and conclude
that while it may be grounded in immorality, the limits of the UNDERGRADUATE lie in the causation of harm to others.
Ultimately, there is an important line to be drawn between immorality and
actual harm where the UNDERGRADUATE is
concerned.

8. Why We Obey UNDERGRADUATE
: Positivism or Naturalism?
The debate between the plausibility of natural and
positive UNDERGRADUATE has resounded in all
of its intricacy tundergraduate oughout legal theories for centuries. Profound
and powerful arguments for each, however, remain almost equally convincing and
although certain eras have seen one favoured over the other, any definite
victory has occurred for neither. It is however accurate to state that natural UNDERGRADUATE
is somewhat more troublesome in its
content and application than positive UNDERGRADUATE ; indeed, any attempt to
prove that truth is absolute is ripe with theoretical problems. This study will
explore the positivist/naturalist debate I a bid to explain why we obey the UNDERGRADUATE
. Can either provide a watertight approach to conformity with the UNDERGRADUATE
? A mere simplistic explanation of each approach will do little justice to the
topic, and therefore an in-depth review is needed which attempts to link each
theory to practical observations. It will ultimately be proposed that a hybrid
approach to the understanding of why we obey UNDERGRADUATE which combines features of both naturalist and
positivist theories can provide a much more enlightening result.
