Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les questions de droit patrimonial de la famille, sous la direction de Nicole Gallus, abordent au cours de cette cession 2012-2013 d’UB3, un large spectre, allant des liquidations aux successions. La réforme de la procédure de liquidation partage sera évoquée par Mme Aughuet. La question est déterminante tant l’ancienne procédure avait la réputation d’avoir seule vertu d’épuiser les protagonistes. Mme Gallus abordera la situation patrimoniale des personnes vulnérables, en examinant avec attention les dispositions de la future réforme. Les questions de libéralités et de disparition de la cause, de donation-achat ou encore la clause de « pension contre maison » seront abordées respectivement par Mme Nudelholc, M. Van Gysel et M. Lalière. Enfin, terminant le registre des actes patrimoniaux, M. Van Halteren s’interrogera sur le pacte sur succession future.

Download or read book Pussycats Deluxe written by Didier Carré and published by Skylight Editions. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Text in English, French & German. "Nearly 10 years have passed since "Stainless Ladies", my first volume of photographs, came out, and its been about 30 years since I took my first photographs, in black and white, back in 1983. This time, my fourth volume contains results that are more realistic and less dream-like; closer to a rougher, ruder reality. My models are indecent and cheeky all at the same time; they possess the same subtle but captivating blend of fragility and strength. They give nothing away: is it their sex you want to see? No problem, you will! As the observer, you will not be able to resist getting involved. At first, their total lack of shame shocks you, but then puts an irresistible spell on you. And although we know that this is a game of image and illusion, you may want to hate them, but they remain out of reach. In this game, the roles of hunter and prey have been reversed, which is the unsettling part, right? When you get to the end and wake up in the last few pages, you will be wondering whether it was all only a dream, or perhaps even a kind of nightmare. If the next thing you hear is a gentle giggling, it must be the girls, who can take off their panties so quickly no camera is able to spot them! And so, now we take our leave of you, I and my accomplices, great experts as we are in the art of sweet torment." -- Didier Carre

Book excerpt: This joint venture between ICOMOS, the advisory body to UNESCO on cultural sites, and the International Astronomical Union is the second volume in an ongoing exploration of themes and issues relating to astronomical heritage in particular and to science and technology heritage in general. It examines a number of key questions relating to astronomical heritage sites and their potential recognition as World Heritage, attempting to identify what might constitute "outstanding universal value" in relation to astronomy. "Heritage Sites of Astronomy and Archaeoastronomy--Volume 2" represents the culmination of several years' work to address some of the most challenging issues raised in the first ICOMOS-IAU Thematic Study, published in 2010. These include the recognition and preservation of the value of dark skies at both cultural and natural sites and landscapes; balancing archaeoastronomical considerations in the context of broader archaeological and cultural values; the potential for serial nominations; and management issues such as preserving the integrity of astronomical sightlines through the landscape.Its case studies are developed in greater depth than those in volume 1, and generally structured as segments of draft nomination dossiers. They include seven-stone antas (prehistoric dolmens) in Portugal and Spain, the thirteen towers of Chankillo in Peru, the astronomical timing of irrigation in Oman, Pic du Midi de Bigorre Observatory in France, Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, and Aoraki-Mackenzie International Dark Sky Reserve in New Zealand. A case study on Stonehenge, already a World Heritage Site, focuses on preserving the integrity of the solstitial sightlines.As for the first ICOMOS-IAU Thematic Study, a international team of authors including historians, astronomers and heritage professionals is led by Professor Clive Ruggles for the IAU and Professor Michel Cotte for ICOMOS.
Download or read book Heritage Regimes and the State written by Bendix, Regina and published by Universitätsverlag Göttingen. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when UNESCO heritage conventions are ratified by a state? How do UNESCO’s global efforts interact with preexisting local, regional and state efforts to conserve or promote culture? What new institutions emerge to address the mandate? The contributors to this volume focus on the work of translation and interpretation that ensues once heritage conventions are ratified and implemented. With seventeen case studies from Europe, Africa, the Caribbean and China, the volume provides comparative evidence for the divergent heritage regimes generated in states that differ in history and political organization. The cases illustrate how UNESCO’s aspiration to honor and celebrate cultural diversity diversifies itself. The very effort to adopt a global heritage regime forces myriad adaptations to particular state and interstate modalities of building and managing heritage.

Download or read book Filiation and the Protection of Parentless Children written by Nadjma Yassari and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-03 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains selected contributions presented during the workshop “Establishing Filiation: Towards a Social Definition of the Family in Islamic and Middle Eastern Law?”, which was convened in Beirut, Lebanon in November 2017. Filiation is a multifaceted concept in Muslim jurisdictions. Beyond its legal aspect, it encompasses the notion of inclusion and belonging, thereby holding significant social implications. Being the child of someone, carrying one’s father’s name, and inheriting from both parents form important pillars of personal identity. This volume explores filiation (nasab) and alternative forms of a full parent-child relationship in Muslim jurisdictions. Eleven country reports ranging from Morocco to Malaysia examine how maternal and paternal filiation is established – be it by operation of the law, by the parties’ exercise of autonomy, such as acknowledgement, or by scientific means, DNA testing in particular – and how lawmakers, courts, and society at large view and treat children who fall outside those legal structures, especially children born out of wedlock or under dubious circumstances. In a second step, alternative care schemes in place for the protection of parentless children are examined and their potential to recreate a legal parent-child relationship is discussed. In addition to the countr y-specific analyses included in this book, three further contributions explore the subject matter from perspectives of premodern Sunni legal doctrine, premodern Shiite legal doctrine and the private international law regimes of contemporary Arab countries. Finally, a comparative analysis of the themes explored is presented in the synopsis at the end of this volume. The book is aimed at scholars in the fields of Muslim family law and comparative family law and is of high practical relevance to legal practitioners working in the area of international child law. Nadjma Yassari is Leader of the Research Group “Changes in God’s Law: An Inner-Islamic Comparison of Family and Succession Law” at the Max Planck Institute for Comparative and International Private Law while Lena-Maria Möller is a Senior Research Fellow at the Max Planck Institute and a member of the same Research Group.

Download or read book Droit patrimonial de la famille written by Jean Fonteyn and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les assurances-vie en droit patrimonial de la famille. L'étude a pour objectif de traiter l'ensemble des questions pratiques que posent les assurances sur la vie en droit patrimonial de la famille à la lumière des nouveautés jurisprudentielles et législatives, sous l'angle du droit des successions d'une part et sous l'angle du droit des régimes matrimoniaux d'autre part. Ainsi, l'auteur traitera notamment, en ce qui concerne le premier volet, de la loi du 10 décembre 2012 modifiant l'article 124 LCAT et des questions qu'elle a laissé subsister. Quant au deuxième volet, le statut matrimonial des assurances sur la vie fait actuellement l'objet de discussions au Parlement. Actualités en droit des régimes matrimoniaux. Comme son titre l'indique, l'objectif de cette contribution est de faire le point, à l'attention des praticiens, sur un ensemble de questions qui font l'actualité, soit parce qu'elles ont donné lieu, dans les régimes tant de communauté que de séparation de biens, à des décisions de jurisprudence récentes qui méritent d'être analysées, soit parce que le Parlement pourrait être amené à se prononcer prochainement sur deux projets de réforme du droit des régimes matrimoniaux. Actualités en droit des successions. Le droit belge des successions, dont les fondements remontent à 1804, est aujourd'hui largement remis en question et fait l'objet de débats animés au sein des sphères tant universitaire que politique. Les auteurs proposent une analyse des actualités législatives et jurisprudentielles dans la branche du droit successoral, ainsi que des perspectives de lege ferenda en la matière. L'approche adoptée est théorique d'abord, et pratique ensuite, afin de permettre au lecteur de mesurer la portée des évolutions présentes et futures.
