Download or read book Rules of Engagement and the International Law of Military Operations written by J. F. R. Boddens Hosang and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book systematically analyses the relationship and interaction between rules of engagement (ROE) and the legal framework regulating armed conflicts, both at the international and national levels. At the international level, the relationship between ROE and human rights law and international humanitarian law is explored. At the national level, the book relates ROE to (comparative) criminal law. A separate chapter analyses the complex relationship between self-defence law and rules of engagement. It is the first monograph to comprehensively examine these issues and to analyse how ROE interact with the various sources of the (international) law of military operations, both in terms of the law as a source for these rules and how the law is reflected and implemented through them. In doing so, and based on the author's own experience, the book provides examples of how complicated, often controversial issues of law can be resolved while keeping the rules understandable at all levels of military operations. Aimed at both scholars and practitioners, the book provides a bridge between the academic world and the operational world. It provides new insights for both of those audiences in terms of understanding how the law applies to - and through - the rules on the use of force for military operations.

Download or read book The legal Pluriverse Surrounding Multinational Military Operations written by Robin Geiß and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'Legal Pluriverse' Surrounding Multinational Military Operations conceptualizes and examines the "Pluriverse": the multiplicity of rules that apply to and regulate contemporary multinational missions, and the array of actors involved. These operations are further complicated by changes to the classification of the conflict, and the asymmetry of obligations on participants. Structured into five parts, this work seeks, through the diversity of its authorship, to set out the web of legal regimes applicable to military operations including forces from more than one state. It maps out the ways in which different regimes interact, beginning with the laws of armed conflict and their relation to international humanitarian and human rights norms, and extending through to areas like law of the sea and environmental law. A variety of contributors systematically compile and take stock of the various legal regimes that make up the pluriverse, assessing how these rules interact, exposing norm conflicts, areas of legal uncertainty, or protective loopholes. In this way, they identify and evaluate approaches to better streamline the different applicable legal frameworks with a view to enhancing cooperation and thereby ensuring the long-term success of multinational military operations.

Book excerpt: De Brief van Aristeas is een geschrift uit de tweede eeuw voor het begin van onze jaartelling. Het is geschreven in het Grieks door een Jood uit de Joodse gemeenschap in Alexandrië in Egypte. Anders dan de naam doet vermoeden, gaat het vermoedelijk niet om een echte brief, maar is de briefstijl louter een literaire vorm. De Brief van Aristeas is vooral bekend geworden vanwege de legende die het bevat over het ontstaan van de Septuagint. De Egyptische koning Ptolemaeus II Philadelphus zou een vertaling van de Tenach in zijn groeiende bibliotheek willen hebben. Daartoe liet hij zeventig (of tweeën-zeventig) Joodse geleerden vanuit Jeruzalem naar Alexandrië komen, alwaar hij hen in aparte ruimten opsloot op het eiland Pharos, voor de kust van Alexandrië.

Download or read book The Battle of Gettysburg The Country The Contestants The Results written by William C. Storrick and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is difficult to present a great battle with sufficient detail to please both the student of tactics and the average reader. If the visitor is not satisfied with the brief outline here presented, he is recommended to read further in the books listed, and especially to employ a guide, without whose trained and supervised services the best manual is inadequate. The reader in search of romance is recommended to the successive Incidents of the Battle as herein presented. According to official records, the Gettysburg campaign of 1863 began on June 3rd and ended on August 1st. No effort will be made to describe the movements, counter-movements, and fifty minor engagements that occurred before the armies crossed the Mason and Dixon’s line and finally concentrated at Gettysburg, where they engaged in battle on July 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. It is necessary, however, that the visitor should understand the approach to the field. On June 3rd the Union Army, called the Army of the Potomac, lay at Falmouth, Va., on the north side of the Rappahannock River, Major-General Joseph Hooker in command. The Confederate Army, called the Army of Northern Virginia, occupied the south bank, with headquarters at Fredericksburg, General Robert E. Lee in command. Both armies were resting after the major engagement at Chancellorsville, in which the Confederates were victorious. The Army of the Potomac was made up of seven infantry and one cavalry corps. It numbered at the time of the battle approximately 84,000. The Army of Northern Virginia was made up of three infantry corps and one division of cavalry. It numbered at the time of the battle about 75,000. Following the text is a roster of officers, which should be consulted, both for an understanding of the battle and because of the obligation to honor brave men. During the month of May, General Lee visited Richmond to discuss with the Confederate government various plans involving political and military considerations. Up to this time, the South had won the major victories, but her resources, both in men and sinews of war, were diminishing, and a prolonged conflict would be disastrous. It was decided that the army should invade the North via the Shenandoah and Cumberland valleys, with Harrisburg as an objective. This route not only afforded a continuous highway but put the army in a position to threaten Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Washington from the north. The Blue Ridge Mountains to the east would screen the advance, and the rich agricultural section would furnish supplies of food and forage. The time was propitious. General Lee’s army was in the prime of condition. The North was discouraged by losses, distrustful of Lincoln, weary of war. The South believed that one great victory would assure her the friendliness of the leading powers of Europe. Her independence once acknowledged, she could import the materials of war and the necessities of life which she lacked. It was thought certain that at the prospect of invasion the North would withdraw troops from the siege of Vicksburg then being conducted by General Grant. With high hopes the march was begun. On June 3rd Lee put his army in motion northward, with Ewell’s Corps, preceded by Jenkins’ and Imboden’s Cavalry, in the advance, followed by Longstreet and lastly by Hill. Longstreet moved on the east side of the Blue Ridge in order to lead Hooker to believe that Washington would be threatened. On reaching Snicker’s Gap, he crossed the Ridge into the Shenandoah Valley and followed Hill, who was now in advance. The great army was strung out from Fredericksburg, Va., on the south to Martinsburg, W. Va., on the north, with the cavalry division under Stuart guarding the gaps along the Blue Ridge. Since 1863 the population of Gettysburg has increased from 2,000 to 5,500 After driving out Union forces stationed at Winchester under Milroy, Lee’s Army crossed the Potomac at Williamsport and Shepherdstown on June 23rd, 24th, and 25th, and advanced northward, unopposed, through the Cumberland Valley, toward Harrisburg.

Download or read book New Testament Conjectural Emendation in the Nineteenth Century Jan Hendrik Holwerda as a Pioneer of Method written by Bart L.F. Kamphuis and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-05-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In New Testament Conjectural Emendation in the Nineteenth Century Bart L.F. Kamphuis investigates the life and work of Jan Hendrik Holwerda (1805-1886), who should be seen as the father of the Dutch Movement of Conjectural Criticism. Through a close study of his correspondence, Kamphuis reconstructs Holwerda’s remarkable scholarly biography. He then positions his text-critical theory against the views of Lachmann, Tischendorf and Tregelles. Finally, Holwerda’s corpus of New Testament conjectures is analysed by means of a newly proposed classification, while specific conjectures are discussed in the context of the history of scholarship on the passages concerned. This study not only significantly contributes to our understanding of the history of New Testament textual criticism, but also shows that several of Holwerda’s conjectures have lasting relevance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In deze bundel staan 3 boeken. "Beschouwingen over de God van Israël" zijn brieven aan Ds. Jenkins over de Heilige Geest. Leerstellig en bevindelijk van aard. W. Stevens, schrijft over dit werk: "... om dit wel te overwegen en biddende te overdenken." Huntington schreef: "Bij het schrijven ontving ik meer leiding van de Heilige Geest dan bij ieder ander boek."Het 2e boek is 'De verborgenheid der Godzalig-heid.' De schrijver zet uiteen dat de Zoon van God, de menselijke natuur aannam. Hij was en bleef een Goddelijk Persoon in de kribbe, aan het kruis en in het graf, naar Zijn menselijke natuur.Het 3e boek luidt: 'Het Arminiaanse geraamte.' "Hiervan ben ik zeker, de leerstellingen, welke ik hier beschreven heb, zijn niet naar de mens; want ik heb ze niet van de mensen geleerd, maar door de openbaring van Jezus Christus. Indien wij van mening zijn dat de waarheid geen verdediging waard is, dan moeten we verwachten, dat de Heilige Geest Zijn vleugelen zal uitslaan om van ons weg te vliegen."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Huntingtons hoofdthema in deze bundel is: "... Ik heb echter gelukkig ervaren dat de beste regel om naar te wandelen en anderen en hun leerstellingen aan te toetsen, is de wil van God die door de Heilige Geest in het hart en in Zijn Woord is geopenbaard. ... Het is een troostrijke gedachte dat we alles hebben in de Zaligmaker: de ceremoniële wet is vervuld in Christus en door Hem tenietgedaan; de zedelijke wet werd door Hem verheerlijkt en ontdaan van haar vloek en is in Hem verborgen; ieder ander gebod werd aan Hem gegeven en alle beloften werden aan Hem gedaan en zijn ja en amen in Hem 2 Kor. 1:20. ... Hieruit moet ik afleiden dat de hele wil van God in Christus Jezus de enige en algenoegzame leefregel is voor ieder waar kind van God." Huntington zet in 5 verhandelingen uiteen, dat de wil van God de Vader de wet voor Christus was en de wil van de Vader in Christus, is het zachte juk voor de gelovige, waarin hij zich verheugd met een onuitsprekelijke vreugde.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Op 17 juli 1556 werd Katharina Cauches met haar dochters Periotina en Guillemine levend verbrand. Hun aanklacht luidde: 'dat zij de heilige bepalingen en geboden van de kerk niet hebben gehoorzaamd, de mis verzuimden bij te wonen en andere dingen nalieten, tegen het bevel van de koning en de koningin.' Periotina was zwanger. Door de vlammen barstte haar buik open en bracht ze een levende zoon voort. Deze werd uit het vuur gehaald, maar in opdracht van de schout er opnieuw ingeworpen en levend verbrand. Foxe schrijft: dat dit onschuldig wicht, dat nimmer de wereld had aanschouwd dan om het getal van Gods heiligen aan te vullen, in zijn eigen bloed gedoopt werd, en als martelaar geboren en gestorven is. In dit boek worden veel andere ontroerende gebeurtenissen verteld, ook van jonge mensen, die de liefde van Jezus Christus op een bijzondere wijze uitstralen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deze bundel bestaat uit meer dan 100 brieven waarvan 40 aan predikant Jenkin Jenkins en verder aan allerlei personen. Ook zijn een aantal brieven opgenomen die aan Huntington gericht zijn. In een brief aan Davidson beschrijft Hutington geestelijke lering uit: 'Roofgoed gehaald uit de Staatsgevangenis te Londen. Een groot aantal brieven in deze bundel laat zien, dat Huntington, - zegt Wright, - zonder twijfel de grootste schrijver van religieuze brieven is, die Engeland ooit heeft bezeten. En hij kan op dit terrein de vergelijking met de groten uit de Engelse litteratuur doorstaan, al stond hij bij hen achter in ontwikkeling. "Over het geheel genomen - zegt Ds. J. C. Philpot - geven zijn brieven het wezenlijke van de levende godzaligheid weer, en daar zijn brieven kersvers zijn, dat wil zeggen, onmiddellijke neerslag vormen van zijn ver¬schillende stemmingen, hebben ze een losheid en warmte, natuurlijkheid en kracht, waardoor ze een diepe indruk maken op iemands consciëntie."
