In this paper, we analyze the Project of Reform of the Criminal Code of Argentina, which proposes the decriminalization of the use of drugs for personal consumption under two requirements: that it is a small amount of narcotics and that the conduct is carried out privately, without transcendence to third parties. In addition to the precedents of the jurisprudence of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation that we analyzed, we have also made a detailed study of the technological and sociological reality of today's world, which to a greater or lesser extent reaches the majority of western societies and how these changes, which entail another of the great historical revolutions such as the industrial one, influence the current life and alter the behavior of individuals. RiassuntoIn questo articolo, analizziamo il progetto di riforma del codice penale argentino, che propone la depenalizzazione dell'uso di droghe per il consumo personale secondo due requisiti: che si tratti di una piccola quantità di stupefacenti e che la condotta sia effettuata privatamente, senza trascendenza verso terzi. Oltre ai precedenti della giurisprudenza della Corte Suprema di Giustizia della Nazione che abbiamo analizzato, abbiamo fatto anche uno studio dettagliato della realtà tecnologica e sociologica del mondo di oggi, che in misura maggiore o minore raggiunge la maggior parte delle società occidentali, e di come questi cambiamenti, che comportano un'altra delle grandi rivoluzioni storiche come quella industriale, influenzano la vita attuale e alterano il comportamento degli individui. ResumenEn este trabajo analizamos el Proyecto de Reformas al Código Penal de la Nación Argentina que propone la despenalización del uso de drogas para consumo personal bajo dos requisitos que son, que se trate de escasa cantidad de estupefaciente y que la conducta sea llevada adelante en forma privada, sin trascendencia a terceros. Además de los antecedentes de la jurisprudencia de la Corte Suprema de Justicia de la Nación que analizamos, hemos hecho un estudio pormenorizado también de la realidad tecnológica y sociológica del mundo actual, que en mayor o menor medida alcanza a la mayoría de las sociedades de occidente y cómo esos cambios, que comportan otra de las grandes revoluciones históricas como lo fue la industrial,  influyen en la vida actual y alteran la conducta de los individuos.

AbstractIn 2017, the majority of the United Kingdom Supreme Court held in its judgment in the Gard Marine and Energy v China National Chartering (The Ocean Victory) case that, in bareboat charters under the ‘BARECON 89’ form, if both the owner and the charterer are jointly insured under a hull policy, the damages caused to the vessel by the charterer cannot be claimed by the insurer by way of subrogation after indemnifying the owner. The interpretation of the charter party leads to the conclusion that the liability between the parties is excluded. Faced with the Supreme Court’s decision, the Baltic and International Maritime Council (BIMCO) adopted a new standard bareboat charter agreement only a few months later, the ‘BARECON 2017’ form, which amends, among other clauses, the one related to insurance. The present paper analyses (i) the new wording of the clause mentioned above and (ii) its incidence on the relationship between the parties of both the charter agreement and the insurance contract and its consequences for possible third parties. Despite BIMCO’s attempt to change the solution adopted by the Supreme Court and his willingness to allow the insurer to claim in subrogation against the person who causes the loss, the consequences, as it will be seen, do not differ much in practice when the wrongdoer is the co-insured charterer. On the contrary, when the loss is caused by a time charter or a sub-charter, in principle, there will be no impediment for the insurer to sue him.

Public Committee Against Torture in Israel v. Government of Israel. Case No. HCJ 769/02. At <http://elyonl.court.gov.il/files_eng/02/690/007/a34/02007690.a34.pdf>.Supreme Court of Israel, sitting as the High Court of Justice, December 13, 2006.In Public Committee Against Torture in Israel v. Government of Israel1 Targeted Killings) the Supreme Court of Israel, sitting as the High Court of Justice, examined the legality of Israel's “preventative targeted killings” of members of militant Palestinian organizations. The Court's unanimous conclusion reads:The result of the examination is not that such strikes are always permissible or that they are always forbidden. The approach of customary international law applying to armed conflicts of an international nature is that civilians are protected from attacks by the army. However, that protection does not exist regarding those civilians “for such time as they take a direct part in hostilities” (§51(3) of [Additional Protocol I]). Harming such civilians, even if the result is death, is permitted, on the condition that there is no less harmful means, and on the condition that innocent civilians are not harmed. Harm to the latter must be proportional. (Para. 60)

The article analyzes some of the controversial, in the opinion of the author, recommendations of the Decree of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation No. 10 of 15.05.2018 «On the practice of the courts applying the provisions of paragraph 6 Article 15 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation». Lowering the category of crime always requires clear criteria by which the actions of the defendant could be qualified with a change in the gravity of the crime. Based on examples from judicial practice, the thesis is substantiated that “taking into account the factual circumstances of the case” and “the degree of its public danger” are evaluative e criteria and do not always allow to decide the validity of the application of part 6 article 15 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. The discrepancy between some of the recommendations contained in the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation and the provisions of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is shown. It is concluded that it is impossible to exempt a person from criminal liability on the grounds specified in the Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
