Priverstinio akcijų pirkimo- pardavimo būdai ir įgyvendinimas / Means of forced sale and purchase of shares and its realization

Stašinskas, Justinas 08 September 2009 (has links)
Darbe nagrinėjama su priverstiniais akcijų pirkimo – pardavimo būdais ir jų įgyvendinimu susiję klausimai. Autorius išskiria penkis savarankiškus priverstinio akcijų pirkimo – pardavimo būdus. Priverstinis akcijų (dalių, pajų) pardavimas, priverstinis akcijų pardavimas dėl negalėjimo įgyvendinti teises, privalomas oficialus pasiūlymas ir privalomas akcijų pardavimas ir pirkimas. Aukščiau minėtų institutų reglamentavimas Lietuvos Respublikos teisės aktuose yra pakankamas, tačiau šių institutų naujumas, teismų praktika ir normų išaiškinimo stoka paskatino detaliai aptarti ir išanalizuoti galiojusias ir tebegaliojančias priverstinio akcijų pirkimo – pardavimo būdų įgyvendinimo procedūrą nustatančias taisykles. Atsižvelgiant į tai, jog keli privalomo akcijų pirkimo – pardavimo įgijimo būdai yra sureglamentuoti Europos Sąjungos mąstu, taikant lyginamąjį, loginį, sisteminį ir istorinį metodus, aptariamas Europos Sąjungos teisės aktuose nustatytas reglamentavimas bei jo įgyvendinimas Lietuvos Respublikoje. Magistriniame darbe stengiamasi griežtai atskirti kiekvieną priverstinį akcijų pirkimo – pardavimo būdą bei jį individualizuoti. Nepaisant institutų skirtingo reglamentavimo lygio, autorius nuosekliai aptaria kiekvieno priverstinio akcijų pirkimo - pardavimo sąvoką, požymius, principus. Priverstinis akcijų (dalių, pajų) pardavimo institutas buvo perimtas iš vienu moderniausių laikomo Olandijos Civilinio kodekso ir perlkeltas į Lietuvos Respublikos Civilinį kodeksą. Išsamiai... [toliau žr. visą tekstą] / The analysis is being focused on the matters connected with means of forced sale and purchase of shares and its realization. Author excludes five independent means of forced sale and purchase of shares. Forced sale of shares (interest, contribution), forced sale of shares (interest, contribution) due to the failure to exercise the Rights properly, mandatory bid, squeeze-out and sell-out rule. The regulation of institutions mention above in the legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania is sufficient, however the novelty of institutions, the lack of judicial precedents and interpretation of law encouraged author to analyze and interpret the rules of forced sale and purchase of shares that were existing and that still exist. Considering that same means of forced sale and purchase of shares are regulated the legal acts of European Union, applying the historical, systemic, comparison and logical methods the regulation of legal acts of European Union and its implementation in the acts of the Republic of Lithuania is being analyzed. It is tried strictly to exclude every mean of forced sale and purchase of shares and to individualize each. Despite the different level of regulation, author successively discusses conception, signs and principles of every forced sale and purchase of shares. Forced sale of shares (interest, contribution) was being taken from one of the modest civil code of Netherlands and implemented in civil code of the Republic of Lithuania.

Social history, public history and the politics of memory in re-making ‘Ndabeni’’s pasts

Sambumbu, Sipokazi January 2010 (has links)
<p>It has been over a century since African people were forcibly removed by official decree in 1901, from the Cape Town dockland barracks and District Six, to Uitvlugt, a farm where a location of corrugated iron &lsquo / huts&rsquo / had just been constructed. This occurrence followed an outbreak of a bubonic plague in Cape Town in 1901, which became predominant among the Africans who worked at the docks, and who were in direct and constant contact with the main carriers of the disease, i.e., the rats coming out of ships from Europe. The outbreak resulted in African being stigmatised as diseased, and being banished to the outskirts of the city. Since then, knowledge about this historical occurrence has been continuously produced, presented and communicated in many ways. It has featured in many representations through memory, heritage and history.In 1902, the new residents of Uitvlugt gave the location the name kwa-Ndabeni. Ndabeni was a nickname that the residents had given to Walter Stanford who had chaired the commission that recommended for the establishment of the location in 1901. The prefix kwa- was added to the name so that it meant in Xhosa language, the place of Ndabeni. In that way, the residents, who at that time did not consider the location as a potential place of their permanent abode, named it in a way that disassociated them from the place.</p>

Current manifestation of trauma experienced during forced removals under apartheid: interviews with a former "Vlakte" inhabitant

Hector- Kannemeyer , Renee Allison January 2010 (has links)
<p>Much has been researched in South Africa about the trauma of losing one&rsquo / s home, one&rsquo / s community and rebuilding one&rsquo / s life in a new environment. Several books have been published tracking the lives of the forcibly removed and their responses to leaving District Six. My research focuses on a different group namely those who had been forcibly removed from the centre of Stellenbosch, called &ldquo / Die Vlakte&rdquo / during that time. Living and working with and among people who have experienced this removal, I was keen to research whether the impact of the trauma is currently&nbsp / manifesting in this specific community and if so, what the symptoms would be. This qualitative inquiry focuses on one particular individual, Mr. Hilton Biscombe. I selected him because he, who experienced the removal as a teenager, spent most of his later life determinedly collecting stories and documents relating to this incident. Mr. Biscombe is also the only person of whom I am aware who responded personally through compiling a book, making a DVD, writing poetry as well as an autobiography relating to this event. My inquiry into the ways trauma manifests in a narrative, will be based on two interviews: one conducted by a white man from the University of Stellenbosch thirty years after the event / and another interview, six years later, conducted by myself.Our understanding of trauma is usually associated with a death or injury or the possibility thereof, but it could also include the victim&rsquo / s response to extreme fear, serious harm or threat to&nbsp / family members. According to van der Merwe and Vienings, people also become traumatized when witnessing harm, physical violence or death or the sudden loss or destruction of a victim&rsquo / s home (van der Merwe &amp / Vienings, 2001). So the issue of trauma is not in question, nor the fact that forced removals cause trauma. I am exploring testimony in the form of interviews for possible current manifestations of this trauma thirty-six years down the line.</p>

Implementation in a policy networks setting : a case study of the Association for Rural Advancement's Implementation of the Farm Dwellers' Project from 1994 until today.

Tahboula, Rigobert R. January 2010 (has links)
This research focuses on policy networks as a framework to analyse the implementation of the South African Land Reform (Labour Tenant) Act 3 of 1996 (LTA) and the Extension of Security of Tenure Act 62 of 1997 (ESTA) more generally. In particular, this research looks at the Association for Rural Advancement’s (AFRA) implementation of the farm dwellers project, specifically, how this organisation has been using the policy networks approach to implement its farm dwellers project. The LTA and the ESTA guide the South African post-apartheid land reform programme. This programme responds to the racially-based system of land access created by colonialism and apartheid. It is against this system of land access that the post-apartheid, democratic government undertook a vast land reform programme, intended to redress the injustices of the past (Drimie 2003:39). The LTA and ESTA are situated within this perspective and their objectives were derived from an understanding that land reform has the potential to make a direct impact on poverty through targeted resource transfers and by addressing the economic and social injustices caused by colonial and apartheid dispossession. However, after sixteen years of democracy and policy implementation of the land reform programme, little progress has been made. This includes an undertaking in the Reconstruction and Development Programme (RDP) of 1994, which provided a set of guidelines and principles for the evolving land policy, to redistribute, by 2014 (extended from 1999), 30% of the 80% of commercial farmland (mostly white owned) to black South Africans and to make land reform the driving force of rural development (Drimie 2003:39). By March 2009, a total of 5.2% of the targeted 30% of commercial farmland has been transferred through the various land reform programmes (Kleinbooi 2009:1). Concerns have been raised that attribute this seeming failure of the land reform programme to the government’s market approach (Mkhize 2004). This has been sustained by the government’s shift from the RDP to Growth, Employment and Redistribution (GEAR). AFRA, in its funding proposal of 1998-2000, has identified this shift as “disturbing because it implies that government’s economic and political direction is likely to result in reduced resources for rural and agricultural development, a shift which will impact hard on the already tough conditions of poverty that people live in.” From this understanding, this research hopes to establish that the seeming failure of the implementation of the South African land reform can be improved through a more effective utilisation of policy networks. More particularly, this research hopes to establish how AFRA has been using policy networks to implement its Farm Dwellers project from 1994 until today. / Thesis (M.Soc.Sc.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2010.

Development of the New Zealand Stimuli for the University of Canterbury Adaptive Speech Test-Filtered Words (UCAST-FW)

Murray, Sarah Louise January 2012 (has links)
Auditory processing disorder (APD) is a label that describes a variable set of symptoms that share a common feature of difficulty listening to sounds in the absence of an actual audiological deficit (Moore, 2006). Clinical assessment of APD typically involves a test battery consisting of tests designed to examine the integrity of various auditory processes of the central auditory nervous system. Individuals with APD have difficulty recognising speech when parts of the signal are missing. One category of tests used to assess the extent to which this deficit is associated with reduced performance on the task is the low-pass filtered speech test. The University of Canterbury Adaptive Speech Test-Filtered Words (UCAST-FW) is a computer-based adaptive low-pass filtered speech test developed for the assessment of auditory processing skills in adults and children. Earlier studies with the UCAST-FW (McGaffin, 2007; Sincock, 2008; Heidtke, 2010; Abu-Hijleh, 2011) have produced encouraging results. However, there appear to be a number of confounding factors. The UCAST-FW is testing New Zealand listeners using an Australian recording of American test material. The purpose of the current study was to develop a new four-alternative forced choice test to replace the Northwestern University Children’s Perception of Speech (NU-CHIPS) stimuli the UCAST-FW currently utilises. The new test consists of 98 sets of four test items, (one target item and three foil alternatives) designed to be used in a four-alternative forced choice picture-pointing procedure. Phonemic analysis of the new word list and the NU-CHIPS word lists revealed a similar distribution of phonemes for target words of both word lists. The development of the new word list is described and the clinical applicability is explored.

Arranged marriages, broken families and concerned parents : a "bounded choice" perspective on commitment in Grace Gospel Church.

Semple, Sean Alexander John. January 2013 (has links)
Grace Gospel Church (GGC) is a small congregation that has met in various venues in Pinetown, KwaZulu-Natal since 2003. It is a partner church of the Mauritian-based organisation, Church Team Ministries International (CTMI), led by Miki Hardy. Hardy is a pastor who claims to have received a unique revelation from God, and he is considered to be an apostle by his followers. Grace Gospel Church and Church Team Ministries International have gained international attention due to claims that they exert a controversial influence over their members. This influence appears to induce a radical commitment to the partner church and CTMI, leading to behavioural, career and study changes, arranged marriages and estrangement between members and their families. Grace Gospel Church has been accused of being a cult, and this exploratory research questions whether this accusation has justification by comparing the group’s theology and practices against theological, psychological and sociological research on cults. Cult researcher Janja Lalich’s theory of “bounded choice” is described and used to evaluate the commitment witnessed in GGC. Bounded choice exists when, as a result of psycho-social group dynamics, a personal fusion occurs between the individual and the ideology and mores of the group. Out of this fusion, a charismatically committed “true believer” emerges who may appear to have personal freedom, but whose palette of choices is severely curtailed by the beliefs and practices of the group. “Bounded” decision making results which might appear irrational or repugnant to those outside the group, but to true believers represent their highest aspirations. This research indicates that GGC shares many characteristic features of typical cults and also promotes the conditions necessary for bounded choice to occur. It is thus concluded that GGC could legitimately be termed a cult, and that bounded choice is a valid explanation for the controversial choices made by its members. / Thesis (M.Th.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2013.

Numerical Investigation Of Incompressible Flow In Grooved Channels- Heat Transfer Enhancment By Self Sustained Oscillatins

Gurer, Turker 01 April 2003 (has links) (PDF)
In this study, forced convection cooling of package of 2-D parallel boards with heat generating chips is investigated. The main objective of this study is to determine the optimal board-to-board spacing to maintain the temperature of the components below the allowable temperature limit and maximize the rate of heat transfer from parallel heat generating boards cooled by forced convection under constant pressure drop across the package. Constant heat flux and constant wall temperature boundary conditions on the chips are applied for laminar and turbulent flows. Finite elements method is used to solve the governing continuity, momentum and energy equations. Ansys-Flotran computational fluid dynamics solver is utilized to obtain the numerical results. The solution approach and results are compared with the experimental, numerical and theoretical results in the literature. The results are presented for both the laminar and turbulent flows. Laminar flow results improve existing relations in the literature. It introduces the effect of chip spacing on the optimum board spacing and corresponding maximum heat transfer. Turbulent flow results are original in the sense that a complete solution of turbulent flow through the boards with discrete heat sources with constant temperature and constant heat flux boundary conditions are obtained for the first time. Moreover, optimization of board-to-board spacing and maximum heat transfer rate is introduced, including the effects of chip spacing.

The Question Of Urban Integration And Forced Migration From East And Southeast Anatolian Regions After 1980: The Case Of Mersin

Mecin, Mansur 01 May 2004 (has links) (PDF)
The aim in this study is to find the variables that caused differentiation in the urban integration levels of families who migrated from East and Southeast Anatolian Regions after the 1980&rsquo / s due to ethno-political reasons, forcedly. Thus, demographic, socioeconomic, socio-spatial, solidarity networks (social, political, organizational,) and criminal variables have been evaluated, to see whether they caused differentiation in the urban integration levels of forced migrants or not. A total number of 175 household heads, who have migrated to Mersin due to ethno-political reasons, have been interviewed. We found that the urban integration level of forced migrants differentiates according to their socioeconomic status in village and whether they commit crime or not. In conclusion, we presented a political plan shaped around these two variables.
