Book L obligation de renvoi pr  judiciel    la Cour de justice

Download or read book L obligation de renvoi pr judiciel la Cour de justice written by Laurent Coutron and published by Primento. This book was released on 2014-05-27 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amorcé par l’arrêt Köbler, un mouvement jurisprudentiel récent a conduit la Cour de justice à concevoir divers mécanismes qui permettent aux justiciables de sanctionner, directement ou indirectement, une juridiction nationale qui a méconnu son obligation de renvoi préjudiciel. C’est ainsi que les justiciables pourront solliciter la remise en cause de la chose décidée, voire de la chose jugée ou encore, chercher à engager la responsabilité «judiciaire» de l’État. On pressent pourtant que les solutions, très restrictives, forgées par la Cour de justice sont supplantées par les dispositifs nationaux. Ceux-ci paraissent en effet plus aisés à actionner, voire plus performants, qu’il s’agisse de la violation du droit au juge légal, comme en Allemagne ou en Espagne, ou encore de l’introduction du dispositif législatif suédois. La présentation – sans égal à ce jour – de près de vingt rapports nationaux permettra de mieux apprécier l’effectivité de la protection juridictionnelle dont disposent les justiciables via le renvoi préjudiciel. L’intérêt de cet ouvrage est d’autant plus vif que l’adhésion prochaine de l’Union européenne à la Convention européenne des droits de l’homme se traduira vraisemblablement par une revitalisation des dispositions permettant de sanctionner une violation de l’obligation de renvoi préjudiciel. Cet ouvrage s’adresse principalement aux magistrats et aux avocats, ainsi qu’aux universitaires spécialisés dans l’étude du droit processuel.

Book Population Forecasting 1895   1945

Download or read book Population Forecasting 1895 1945 written by H.A. de Gans and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Authors, scholars and scientists whose mother tongue is not one of the major languages of international communication are seriously disadvantaged. Some individuals, such as Joseph Conrad or Vladimir Nabokov, have overcome that handicap brilliantly. Others learn to live with it: they can express themselves sufficiently lucidly in a second language to make their voice heard internation ally. At least when they have something original or striking to say they will be certain to reach their peers. Most scientists and scholars fall into that category. Others, again, have to wait until their work has been translated before its value is recognised. This may apply even to those whose mother tongue is widely read. The writings of Frenchmen Lyotard, Derrida, Baudrillard or Foucault on post-modernism, on language, discourse and power, for example, had tremendous world-wide impact only after English translations appeared on the market. De Gans' study of the development of population forecasting in The Nether lands is another striking illustration of the effects a language barrier may have. He demonstrates convincingly that although a -possibly some what awkward Dutchman named Wiebols, was a pioneer of modern cohort component demo graphic forecasting, he never received international recognition for this. In his thesis of 1925 Wiebols employed the newest instruments of demographic analysis in improving forecasting methodology.

Book Property in Social Continuity

Download or read book Property in Social Continuity written by Franz von Benda-Beckmann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn the laws of inheritance and teach them to the people; for they are one half of useful knowledge. t·1ohannned (Fyzee 1955: 329) When the prophet created this aphorism he had in mind the rules of in heritance law revealed to him by Allah. We could apply it to social an thropology as well sincethe inheritance of property and the succession to positions of socio-political authority are among the most important elements of social organization. They are the vehicles of continuity which maintain property and authority through time. In many societies, and particularly in those generally studied by anthropologists, inherit ance and succession are closely interconnected with kinship and descent and provide the economic and political substance for the existence and continuity of kinship- or descent-based social groups. They are, as it were, the flesh on the bare bones of kinship relations. The importance of inheritance has, of course, not escaped the notice of social and legal anthropologists, and in recent years several studies have ably demonstrated the point (Radcliffe-Brown 1952, Goodenough 1951, Leach 1961 b, Goody 1962, Lloyd 1962, Gray and Gulliver (eds. ) 1964, Derrett (ed. ) 1965, Gluckman 1972, Moore 1969, Burling 1974). Yet in general, property and inheritance have rather been treated as an appendix to economic and kinship studies.

Download or read book The Value of Cooperation written by Willem Oosterveld and published by The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report is structured so as to achieve three objectives: 1 to introduce the reader to the security context in which HSD operates; 2 to provide an overview of where HSD stands and what its assets are; and 3 to show directions for development of the cluster and opportunities to reinforce its mission: to bring together triple-helix-partners with the aim to achieve synergies, bring economic benefits to the Netherlands as a hub for security innovation, and, ultimately, to generate security and economic benefits for society as a whole. The first part of the report starts out by describing what is meant by security, how thinking about security has evolved, and how ever more vital aspects of our daily lives have become part of the security realm. It then briefly surveys some key themes of security, showing how they are interlinked. Subsequently, we survey how these various security themes are currently incorporated in our national security strategies, and reflect on the priorities that are set by the government, but also within civil society, the business world and among citizens. The second part focuses on The Hague Security Delta: what makes it well-equipped to deal with the security challenges that were described in the first part? Where can it make the most meaningful contributions and produce the most value-added, and how is it positioning itself to capitalise on existing and potential opportunities? Subsequently, we investigate some of these opportunities by focusing on how other security clusters have evolved and by highlighting some innovation projects and initiatives that HSD partners and others are engaged in. Finally, some of the highestpotential projects are highlighted that can help consolidate or expand the reach of HSD, and help to improve security provision in a way that adds value to our economy and society alike. The conclusion will recap the objectives of HSD and provide some highlights from its 2015 agenda.

Download or read book Een leven in de West written by W.E. Renkema and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bij het herstel van het Nederlandse gezag over de kolonie Curaçao in 1816, kwam een nieuw garnizoen van meer dan 350 militairen uit Europa op Curaçao aan. Een van de officieren was de twintigjarige kapitein R.F. van Raders. Bijna dertig jaar lang bleef hij werkzaam op het eiland: eerst als garnizoensofficier, daarna als adjudant van de gouverneur en vervolgens als garnizoenscommandant. De laatste negen jaren van zijn verblijf op Curaçao (1836-1845) bekleedde Van Raders de hoogste bestuurlijke functie, die van gezaghebber. Economisch gezien vormde de periode 1816-1845 een moeilijke tijd voor de kolonie. Op Curaçao kon de oude overslaghandel zijn vroegere bloei niet herwinnen. Van raders legde bij zijn aantreden als gezaghebber aan de minister van Koloniën een welvaartsplan voor. Curaçao zou voortaan met eigen agrarische exportproducten de scheepvaart gaan bevorderen. Met groot enthousiasme probeerde Van Raders de teelt van nieuwe producten ingang te doen vinden. Hoewel tegenslagen en tegenwerking de uitvoering van zijn plannen van meet a aan vergezelden, bleef de gezaghebber overtuigd van de juistheid van zijn inzichten. Tot dusver onderbelichte onderwerpen in de West-Indische geschiedschrijving komen in Een leven in de West; Van Raders en zijn werkzaamheden op Curaçao aan bod. Voor het eerst wordt het leven en de maatschappelijke positie van garnizoensmilitairen op Curaçao beschreven. Wim Renkema heeft diepgaand onderzoek verricht in overheidsarchieven, wat geleid heeft tot nieuwe vondsten, bijvoorbeeld over de wijze waarop Van Raders het streven naar gelijkberechtiging van de rooms-katholieke bevolkingsgroep steunde. Eerst waren er niet meer dan algemeenheden over Van Raders bekend, maar nu is zijn carrière voor het eerst uitgebreid onderzocht. Voor iedereen die geïnteresseerd is in de geschiedenis van de Caraïben en in het bijzonder Curaçao is Een leven in de West een aanrader.
