The commercial documents, as the paying mean of noncash, have a special position in the relationship between merchants, and many law books have discussed these issues. The third volume of the commercial law book has been written by an honorable author from different aspects such as Issuing, Transferring, Paying and other subjects that are related to commercial documents. The present critique takes into account known standards and characteristics to assess and criticize the book. As a result, it aimed to identify its weaknesses and strengthens, and improve the quality of future studies. Of the most important defects of the book are lack of legal analysis and innovation. The present book, just provides a summative explanation of legal articles, and it fails to take into consideration other sources except the acts, so it is hoped that the suggestions of the present critique improve the quality of this book.

Methodology is important in every science. Legal studies, for a long time, has been in the deficiency of suitable methodology and methods of doing research. In spite of this specific deficiency, in other fields of human sciences, such as management, there exist some advancements that can solve many issues in legal studies. Because of the absence of modern research methods in legal studies, it has been a long time that we have seen an obvious downtrend in this field. In spite of this unacceptable practice in law science, we see impressive movements and advancements in management science. Therefore, this paper by analyzing the book “ Method of Research in Legal Studies”, written by Dr. Javid tries to make these two fields, law and management, closer, hoping that in the future, the rapprochement of these two fields can solve the issues of society by applying new methods of management sciences to law sciences.

International law has so far made remarkable progress in two areas. One of these is human rights and the other is the international criminal law. After World War II, numerous international and regional documents were adopted in the field of human rights. The European convention for the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms is the first regional instrument which provides a judicial institution, the European court for the protection of human rights, as a monitoring mechanism on execution of the convention’s provisions. In the field of international criminal law, the focus has been on prosecuting and trial of individuals who violate humanitarian laws, and international criminal tribunals have been prosecuting perpetrators of these catastrophes. The book of Criminal Law in European Council, which has been translated comprehensively, expresses the translator's expertise in both areas. But this specialization required that the pages, however briefly, were allocated to the other European court decisions to make the terms of the convention clearer as well as to the judgments of the international criminal tribunals which provided interpretations that were contrary to the interpretations of the European court in some human rights in order to comprehensively cover the issue and its relevance to the goals and educational needs of graduate students.

The publication of the book "Public Law in Nahj al-Balaghah" is admirable in terms of the supreme position of Nahj al-Balaghah in religious culture as well as in terms of the status of public law in comparison with other branches of law. The method of evaluation of this book is citation-analytical, and it is in accordance with the proposed model of the review committee for the Study of Texts and Books of the Humanities in the framework of general introduction, and review of the form and content of the book.The book's strengths in terms of content include Islamic approach to public law, extensive reflection on Nahj al-Balaghah, and proper matching of titles with selective samples in most cases; however, this book suffers from logical disorder and content cohesion, inaccuracy and incompleteness. In some cases, the author's perceptions of Imam Ali impressions in Nahj al-Balāghah can be criticized.In spite of the great importance of constitutional law as the most important branch of public law, a large number of issues relating to sovereignty and government, governmental institutions and the rights of the nation, which are subdivided are the smallest number of pages is devoted to it, and it is underestimated.The technical quality of the book is good, and the general rules of writing are respected; however, weaknesses in book form include lack of proper organization of the book, the proportions of the length of the chapters and the exhaustion of the annexed book.

In recent years, the US government has pursued a policy of targeted killings of those suspected of committing terrorist acts. This policy is often referred to as a legitimate and necessary response to terrorism and asymmetric wars. In this article, we seek to examine the conformity of targeted killings with the findings of international law by examining this practice in the light of international law standards and, in particular, international humanitarian law. This policy is applied both to armed conflict and to peace. Therefore, in criticism and legal analysis of targeted killings, the requirements of international humanitarian law as well as the findings of human rights are emphasized and the application of such a function is examined and analyzed within the framework of these principles. After analyzing and elaborating on this case, the author concludes that targeted killings do not comply with humanitarian rights standards and it is necessary to prevent the establishment and legitimization of this phenomenon and to legitimize it within the framework of international law of international protest and condemnation.

The book entitled "International Law: From Theory to Practice", written by Dr. Ali Omidi in 2009 and published by Mizan Publications. According to the author himself, it is written as an educational manual and a workbook for preparation to Master’s Entrance Exam of International Law. Such a purpose of writing a manual has influenced the scientific level of the book in such a way that it is far away from an academic textbook containing the accepted standards and criteria which aim to analyze the documented and scientific way the various fields of international law. In addition to some form of lacunae, this work also suffers from significant deficiencies and deficits, including the lack of use of first-hand resources, the lack of a logical and consistent table of contents, inaccuracies in the titles of some chapters, and quantitative non-proportionality between chapters. It is hoped that the respected author in subsequent publications will pay attention to this assessment in order to elevate the scientific level of the book.

Devotion to rules of writing educational books of humanities, especially in jurisprudence, legal issues, and principles of jurisprudence, is an inevitable requirement. According to the investigation on the manner of writing and configuration of scientific topics and contents of “Basics of Islamic Law Inference” book, some issues such as lack of style cohesion in classifying topics, ignoring logic of complication and recent achievements, lack of logical relationship between some of the described issues, non-using required documents, impracticality of described issues, heterogeneity of reasoning, ignoring key doctrines, lack of using new legal findings and revised books made this book reviewable; on the other hand, the practical requirement for composing legal educational texts and its conformity with the latest finding and adaptation with applicable law in various areas, emphasizing the theories of jurisprudents and using their latest achievements are essential for jurisprudence texts. Since the book mentioned herein is for education which should make students feel ready for conducting legal research based on the fundamental views, it seems that it is essential to revise its topics as a source of higher education and employment examination.

The retrial is one of the extraordinary methods to complain against decisions whereby the plaintiff demands the issuing court to reverse the final judgment which has been pronounced by the court. If the court accepts the request, the action is reviewed again. Article 426 of Iran’s Act of Civil Procedure counted seven causes for rehearing. Critical analyses of these causes show us the drawn foundation for retrial, and it is required first, 1-3 sub-sections of the aforementioned section would be removed, and second two other causes would be added. The first case happens when it is proved that the judgment has been pronounced based on false testimony or witness statement or oath, and second case happens if it is demonstrated before the court that the issuing judge has gone wrong that is effective in being the judgment unjust.

Judgment is a great thing that sometimes becomes a platform for the unpopularity of human society. Therefore, in Imamiyya jurisprudence, a valuable place is set for the judge, and the installation and deployment of judges in this sensitive position has been accompanied by specific conditions and attributes. The attitude of the jurisprudential texts and profound thought in the traditions and sayings of the Prophet (pbuh), the infallibles (as) and the words of the elders, all indicate that this position is important.Shiite jurisprudence with all its breadth and dynamics, in dealing with the events of the day and the needs of the day require the ghur, thinking, relaxation, and flexibility that in the absence of the infallible Imams, the hypocrites, scholars and clergymen of the Shari'a are supposed to work on this path and put them on the shoulders of ijtihad. In this regard, the category of innovation and ijtihad is apparent in the course of compilation of the laws of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is derived from this dynamic theology. In this study, we will look at the current laws in conformity with the jurisprudence of the Imamieh, and to see to what extent the status and functioning of the judiciary have been transcendental, fruitful, and responsive to the developments of the day.

A delinquent, in a deliberate crime, must have the mental intention and also the knowledge necessary to commit the crime, or in doing a crime, without a definite intention to commit an offense, he/she makes an error that could qualify him/her for criminal responsibility. But this does not encompass all that is called the immaterial element, and only contains part of what is called the immaterial mental elements, while it is indispensable that the other part of the spiritual element that is "immaterial" and at the same time "non-mental" be identified independently and have the opportunity to be appeared and emerged. The authors try to prove that there are elements in the realization of crime in all the legal systems of the world that are immaterial but do not qualify as "mental". Therefore, the "non-mental" elements can be recognized as a true and independent title under the immaterial element with the correct title of "non-mental immaterial elements". Apart from the many benefits of discussing in proving aspect of crimes, this shift has led to a theoretical shift in the fundamental concepts of criminal law, and consequently a change in the structure of all domestic and even foreign law books, and in this sense it is a deconstructing theory. In terms of reasons related to human mental aspect as well as of scrutinizing in the essential elements, crime in action makes it difficult to prove some crimes and by removing certain components from the material element to acquire it, material and sensory means are not sufficient. As a result, it can lead to some kind of diversion or decriminalization and reducing the inflation of the criminal population.

Basically, each discipline is selected and chosen to indicate the content of the field, on the one hand, and it can explain its scope, such as sociology, rhetoric, criminology, and so on, on the other hand. While a criminal policy is a discipline that extends far beyond its title and includes many different subjects, it is also capable of evaluating from a diverse range of scientific disciplines, as well as various legal systems, especially religious and Islamic.About the concept of criminal policy from the past, the views of many writers in Western and Eastern societies, as well as in Iran before and after the Islamic Revolution, have been expressed, which in some cases require careful consideration. Addressing the secular and religious viewpoint of the criminal policy and plotting its place in these two groups: the first group is a subject that has been considered in the book of evaluation, and the author has attempted to explain the position and its role in religious matters, and consequently it is in the current legal system of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

The recognition of parentage is one of the important issues in Shari'a, especially in the cases where there is doubt. Artificial insemination between two foreigners is a suspicious example that is criticized in two terms of imperatives and positive rules. Because of independence between imperatives and positive rules, the positive rules of parentage in artificial insemination could be independently criticized.In this regard, the aim of this article is to examine different opinions in the specific evidence of positive rules of parentage regarding the determination of the father, as well as criticizing these views and choosing the right point based on verses and narrations.Based on the result of this paper, the right view is that these children belong to the owner of sperm and other views are rejected because of the invalid reasons. In the end, it can be argued that the privacy, alimony, and inheritance issues can be resolved by considering the real father explained in this article.

The purpose of this critique is to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the work as "academic books" and to modify the proposed issues and to eliminate existing shortcomings. The method of critique is citation-analytical methodology, and legal logic-based analysis of the legal knowledge is critical in the overall context of a critique of form, and content review. It also assesses the quantity and quality of resources, references, and citations. The results indicate that this critique in terms of methodology and coordination of content, objectives and training needs and the cohesion and logical relationship between the components should be fundamentally revision. Also, due to the lack of balanced processing of the material, it is also subject to both theoretical and internal contradictions.

The manufacturing and production activities have been explicitly predicted in Article 2 of the Iranian Trade Act and have been considered as inherent to commerce. The growth of production is the foreground of economic development, and the support of domestic production and the improvement of business environment are nowadays the priority of study programs in commercial and economic law, through which there are now broad fields available for its realization, and the evident conformation of which includes anatomy of manufacturing contracts, legal management of foreign investment contracts, prevention of imported dumping, the adoption of supportive laws governing special economic zones, modification of tax laws, combating contraband of goods and foreign exchange, reviewing banking laws, and facilitating the participation of foreign trade and industrial activists in the country. But, the constraints of international sanctions on the one hand, and the WTO integration requirements on the other hand, and, finally, the deficiencies and ambiguities about current laws and regulations, along with the weakness of economic policies, have been a major barrier to domestic production, which has long been a challenge between protectionism and globalization of the economy and which has made the critique of the existing legal status a necessity to explain the desired supportive system, using the experiences of advanced countries in the process of industrialization of the country and the competitiveness of the domestic economy.

The history of law education in Iran shows that at the moment, Iran legal system is far away from legal systems of the developed countries and has lost its dynamic nature. Thus we are in need of pathology of different fields of study in law in academic centers, regarding different dimensions like resources, teaching methods, and curriculum development. This can be done by comparative study of law education in Iran and other countries. In this article, we try to compare the history of law education and teaching method in Iran and France.

Starting work and Employment which are correlative and interdependent are key subjects and important chapters of employment law. Although there have been some changes, reforms, and innovations regarding the issue in “Civil Service Management Act”, there are still some obscurities and insufficiencies. Introducing general principles of starting work, especially emphasizing on the principle of efficiency and being qualified, principle of equal opportunity, and clarifying and removing obscurities and insufficiencies are some of the positive changes related to starting work principle comparing to the previous version. Presenting new employment policy while emphasizing on permanent employment criterion for governmental positions, determining the conditions and requirements of different types of employment and employing human resources in administrative organizations, and decreasing the negative consequences of permanent employment, are some of the innovations and positive changes of the above said act. If some of the weak points and ambiguities in predicted regulations and rules are revised, a big change will surely occur in the employment system of Iran. However, obscurities and abridgments of the law, and especially not determining the status of previous rules has made the efforts of law makers open to criticisms.

Social rights have a critical role not only in political, religious, and legal thinking, but also in social and economic management. Islam from its arising both in Islamic texts and in practice and Imams’ deeds emphasized on social rights for their role in preserving human dignity and providing the hard stones of a healthy religious society and has developed a legal and administrative system. On the contrary, in western systems there are no proper principles, pattern, and framework for social rights. Following the progressive Islamic thought, social rights system in Iran is manifested in different principles of the constitutional law of Islamic republic of Iran including: principle 3, article 4(the insurance of widowed, old and guardianless women), principle 28 (right of work), principle 29 (right of social security), principle 30 (right of education), principle 31 (right of habitation).This article not only introduces philosophical background of social rights but also discusses their role in Islamic and Western thinking.

From the beginning of the formation of Law, religion, faith and beliefs were considered as valuable and rich resources and inspiration for the purpose. For centuries rules defined by the church were both religion and law, the same situation as Iran before constitutional revolution. Legislators have always tried to find the solution for the problems of society in religious rules and system and represent it as law, as well as judges and jurists who were faithful to Islamic jurisprudence in practice, and a lot of judgments and judicial decisions are actually representations of commandments of Islamic jurisprudence. Even in some cases legal doctrine benefits from Islamic jurisprudence to explain and describe law articles.Nevertheless, some parts of our legal rules have kept distance from Islamic jurisprudence and are more close to western and European rules. On the one hand, some principles of constitutional law have made the domain of Islamic jurisprudence unclear. In the constitutional law of Iran, reliable Islamic sources and accredited religious injunctions are to explain and describe the defective or obscure articles, but the domain of Islamic jurisprudence for laws extracted from other legal regimes is in doubt. Thus, it is necessary to provide the framework for the domain of Islamic jurisprudence in positive rights, which we will be discussed in this article.

It is nearly three decades that modern human being has been thinking about the previous questions raised in its community regarding the philosophy of law, something that goes back to more than three thousand years. Contemporary researchers having the same point of view as Greek philosophers in the domain of Law, intentionally or unintentionally have noticed a key issue which itself lead to lots of deep but abstract and vague literature in facilitating access to peace and equality for all people. It is nearly half of a century that today's philosophy of law discusses "justice", a subject which is neither old nor new. In theory, it goes back to the creation of human beings and universe, but in practice it is just like a fetus. The philosophy of law in Iran seems like a light boat floating and wandering on the ocean of world current philosophy of law. It is very likely that a huge wave demolishes it completely or in the hope of reformation, restructures it. This article is an explanation of the same situation we experience with philosophy of law in Iran. It aims at analyzing "philosophy of law: definition and nature of law" which, in this article, is considered of great interest for the duality of its content.

Expurgation of rules and regulations is one of the issues which academic societies are increasingly interested in. One of the categories in the field is examination and identification of the "implied abrogation" of the approved laws.In this article, we try just to discuss some aspects of abrogation (not implicit abrogation and changes but explicit abrogation and changes).You may think that abrogation, modification and explicit annexation are clear and there is no need to discuss them. However, in this article it is tried to discuss such issues and not the implied abrogation which there may be some disagreements upon.Jurists’ main concern is the implied abrogation or changes of rules and regulations. However, books like this one makes us also concerned about explicit changes and abrogation.In this book there are a lot of faults both in content and form. In this article, we discuss the approved laws which have been explicitly abrogated, modified and in some cases underwent annexation and interpretation before the first or later publications of the above mentioned book. One of the examples of these approved laws is the executive regulation about urban land approved in 6/7/1988.This executive regulation which was more than 26 pages in the first publication and 24 pages in 18th publication is explicitly abrogated according to article 40 approved in 14/5/1992. It should be noted that this executive regulation was explicitly abrogated 6 years before the first publication of the book in 1998, but you can find it even in the 18th publication in 2008.

Before discussing important issues regarding crime policy in Islam and Islamic Republic of Iran, it is better to introduce the basis and objective of Law in general, and Islamic Law in particular. In fact, without learning about and researching on important issues in the field, discussing crime policy in Islam and Islamic republic of Iran is no more than just plunging in religious injunctions without identifying their role and functions in achieving the fundamental goal of crime policy which is reasonable social discipline. So, first, it is necessary to determine what law is and how it is different from ethics and religion. Second, what is the necessity of law and why its rules are obligatory; and third, what are the objective and output of law and its norms. Thus, In other words, confusing the concepts of religion, ethics, and law, and not discussing basic and philosophical issues concerning law and its objectives have caused contradictions in the book which questions the possibility of “developing and presenting a framework compatible with scientific logic” claimed by the writer in the preface of the book.
