Preventing interreligious conflict : lessons from the ambivalence of the sacred and Singapore by Ho, Chee Feng

“…They are – (a) the dissemination of religiously authentic messages of peace, tolerance and pluralism to the community through the religious leadership to act as nullifying forces against violence, (b) the institutionalization of regular interfaith dialogues bringing together diverse groups of religious believers to discuss common values across their religions to build the norm that all of us are bound by a common thread of humanity despite religious differences, (c) the enactment of legislation to maintain religious harmony coupled with strong enforcement actions against detractors and the development of a national identity that trumps religious differences, and (d) ensuring social and economic equity for everyone in the community to prevent would-be perpetrators from capitalizing on such grievances to fuel interreligious conflicts. …”

The future of nuclear power in India: a question of liability law by Sengupta, A

“…Two specific provisions are particularly contentious:</p> <ul> <li>Section 17(b) which holds suppliers liable for recourse when a nuclear incident results from either a patent or a latent defect in the equipment or material supplied, or as a result of the supply of substandard services; and</li> <li>Section 46 which arguably allows suppliers to remain liable under regular provisions of tort law and other general legislation despite having fulfilled their liabilities under this Act.…”
