The values shaping Australian asylum policy: a historical and ethical inquiryPalmer, David, Social Sciences & International Studies, Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, UNSW January 2007 (has links)
This thesis maps the values that have guided the asylum policy decisions of Australia's political leaders over the past half-century, drawing on archival records and interviews with former immigration ministers and senior public servants. For comparative purposes, it also maps the values shaping the views of asylum among leaders of a supra-national organization (the European Commission) and of a major non-government organization (the Jesuit Refugee Service). The findings support the view that a culture of control permeates Australian asylum policy decisions, and that the quest for control stems from perceptions of national interest as articulated in immigration and foreign policy. However, beneath this it shows the primary values shaping policy to be nation building and good governance in the case of the Australian leaders, and (European) community building in the case of European Commission leaders. Building on a 'caring for us, caring for them' conundrum found running through the values of all three groups of leaders, and seeking a secular equivalent to the faith-inspired relational approach of the Jesuit Refugee Service leaders, the thesis explores the contribution an ethics of care might make to asylum policy design, delivery and evaluation. It argues that such an approach, in which care is conceived as a value, process and practice rather than a sentiment or theory, is well suited to the area, especially when refined to provide for the work of empathy and imagination. It concludes by considering the potential implications for Australian asylum policy if an ethics of care were adopted. The primary goals of the thesis are a better understanding of the issues involved in asylum policy, and the articulation of an ethical approach potentially as engaging of policy insiders as of policy spectators.

International arbitration and competition lawHrle, Jelena. January 1999 (has links)
Arbitrating of competition law claims has generated a substantial tension between the policies served by promoting international arbitration and those protected by the national competition law. Despite the legal tension and unpredictability associated with arbitrating competition law issues, the arbitrator should, in principle, resolve such issues. This study analyses the main concerns when arbitrating competition law issues, such as jurisdiction, choice of law and, in particular, the position of national jurisdiction regarding the enforcement of the award conflicting national competition law. / This study proposes the functional approach to choice of law problems according to which the arbitrator will decide on the applicable competition law bearing in mind the content of mandatory norm, its connection with a dispute and the consequences of its application and non-application. In that regard, this thesis will examine how an arbitrator should address the extraterritorial effect of the competition law. The study will suggest that if the competition law policies of states connected with a dispute serve opposing and conflicting goals, the arbitrator should, in order to preserve his/her neutral function refuse to decide whose competition policy is "better" and should consequently decline jurisdiction.

Private investment and public policy in Egypt, 1960-1986Shafik, Nemat January 1989 (has links)
The determinants of private investment and the role of government policy in Egypt are analyzed with a focus on the debate over "crowding out" versus "crowding in," the implications of administered interest rates, and the consequences of uncertainty. A theoretical model of investment is developed that integrates the microfoundations of firm decision making with the determinants of investment at the macroeconomic level. The model, which draws on case studies of fifty private firms in Egypt, is characterized by oligopolistic markets, putty-clay technology, credit rationing, and rigidities in the supply of capital goods. Econometric testing of the model uses the recent literature on cointegration and error correction to address the problem of spurious correlations while retaining long run information about the equilibrium relationship between aggregate investment and its determinants. The empirical evidence shows that the investment decision depends on expected profits which are a function of demand, costs and mark ups. The impact of government policy on private capital formation operates through these determinants, such as the positive effects of protection or restrictive licensing on private sector mark ups. Using the model to analyze the oil boom of the 1970s, it is possible to explain the sectoral distribution of private investment, which diverged from the predictions of conventional Dutch disease theory about the consequences of a trade shock. The findings indicate that the sharp rise in the private investment ratio during the 1970s in Egypt stemmed more from the consequences of the foreign exchange windfall on demand, costs, and mark ups than from the effect of fiscal incentives introduced by the state. However, government policy was crucial in determining the structure of incentives in the economy which favoured capital intensive, heavily indebted, import substituting investments in protected sectors. The private sector responded to this incentive structure by concentrating on those activities where economic rents were highest.
