Recognition Denied: An Examination of UK and US Foreign Policy towards the Republic of CroatiaLjubic, Maria Christina 02 May 2013 (has links)
This thesis examines the development of decision making taken by two countries, the United Kingdom and the United States, in response to Croatia’s declaration of independence from Yugoslavia. The focus is on the recognition process and the reasoning and rationale used by the government officials and diplomats of the United Kingdom and United States to arrive at their policy decisions and opinions. The concentration is mainly on events from the early 1990s until mid 1992. Topics explored include matters such the politics behind non-recognition, democratic social norms, respect for human rights and Western national interests.
The thesis first hypothesizes, then analyses, which International Relations theory, that is, realism or constructivism, possesses the best capacity explain why these nations initially withheld their recognition of Croatia’s independence before moving to accept the Republic of Croatia as an independent state. The role of the International Relations theories is to offer an interpretation and understanding of these events and decisions. Subsequently, they are judged on their ability to do so. The thesis finds that via the insight of scholars, analysts and theoretical perspectives that both the John Major government of the UK and the George H.W. Bush Administration of the United States behaved mostly according to realist principles, with some instances of constructivist manner. / Graduate / 0615 / 1616 / 0335 / cljubic9@gmail.com

Storie en sprokie : 'n ondersoek na die sprokiesmotief in enkele populere Afrikaanse romansBrink, Malie Johanna 11 1900 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / In die verhandeling word die vergestalting van die sprokiemotief
in die tekste, Griet skryf 'n sprokie deur Marita van der Vyver
(1992) en Weerkaatsings - 'n sprokie deur Eleanor Baker (1984)
nagegaan. Die doel is om vas te stel op watter wyse hierdie
"kindgerigte" genre op die literere vlak van die volwasse leser
omvorm word. Om hierdie doel te bereik word eerstens 'n
begripsverkenning van die sprokie as epiese genre gedoen. In die
verkenning van die genre val die soeklig nie net op die Westerse
sprokie nie, maar daar word ook gefokus op die inheemse SuidAfrikaanse
sprokie.
Tweedens word aan die hand van hierdie teoretiese raamwerk 'n
noukeurige analise gemaak van die vergestalting van die
sprokiemotief binne die twee primere tekste. Die sprokieselemente
in Griet skryf 'n sprokie en Weerkaatsings - 'n sprokie word
uitgelig en die hantering daarvan vergelykend ondersoek / In the dissertation the manifestation of the fairytale motif in
the texts, Griet skryf 'n sprokie by Marita van der Vyver (1992),
and Weerkaatsings 'n sprokie by Eleanor Baker (1984) is
investigated. The purpose is to ascertain the manner in which
this "child-centred" genre is transformed on the literary level
of the adult reader. To achieve this goal, a conceptualization
of the fairytale as an epic genre is firstly undertaken. In the
exploration of the genre, the search light does not only focus
on the Western but also on the indigenous South African
fairytale.
Secondly, by means of this theoretical framework, a detailed
analysis is made of the manifestation of the fairytale motif in
the two primary texts. The elements of the fairytale in Griet
skryf 'n sprokie and Weerkaatsings - 'n sprokie are highlighted
and the handling thereof comparatively investigated / Afrikaans and Theory of Literature / M.A. (Afrikaans)

New thought in South Africa : a profileVenter, Maré 11 1900 (has links)
Against the background of New Thought history in general, the dissertation researches
the origins of the movement in South Africa. On the basis of primary documents, made
available by leaders and other informants, questionnaires, semi-structured interviews
and participant observation, the roots and history of New Thought in South Africa has
been reconstructed. Aspects of New Thought belief, such as God, Jesus, Christ, the
Bible, prayer, meditation, wealth, prosperity, death and reincarnation are discussed. It
becomes apparent that, with its syncretistic, flexible and open structure, as well as the
unique way in which services (weddings, christenings, funerals) are conducted, New
Thought offers an alternative to spiritual and religiously minded people in South Africa,
and shows potential to play a dynamic role in the cross-cultural bridging that is taking
place in a changing South Africa. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.A. (Religios Studies)

Enforcement of Annulled Arbitral Awards : A Study on the Enforcement of Annulled Foreign Arbitral Awards under the 1958 New York Convention from a Swedish PerspectivePersson Thurén, Martin January 2018 (has links)
Different interpretations of the New York Convention’s Article V(1)(e) have caused inconsistencies regarding how courts deal with applications for enforcement of annulled foreign arbitral awards. Court cases from various Contracting States display that the courts have adopted different approaches to this matter. With the rising number of challenges of awards, the issue has become increasingly important. The author examines international case law to analyze the issue of enforcement of annulled arbitral awards with the purpose of suggesting a possible Swedish approach. A number of aspects support the view that national courts have discretion when deciding whether to enforce a foreign arbitral award notwithstanding that has been annulled in the country of origin. Both the New York Convention and the Swedish Arbitration Act leaves narrow room for the court to exercise this discretion. The author suggests that enforcement of an annulled foreign arbitral award should be possible in Sweden under certain exceptional circumstances. If the competent authority in the country where the award was made annuls the award for reasons totally unacceptable from a Swedish point of view, the option to enforce the foreign arbitral award in Sweden should still be available. This approach is in line with the wording and purpose of both the New York Convention and the Swedish Arbitration Act. The suggested Swedish approach would not cause any serious uncertainty for the parties to the arbitration, but would create a necessary safety-valve for the courts to avoid having to refuse enforcement of a foreign arbitral award when it has been set aside for obscure reasons or by a corrupt court. As is evident from international case law, the interpretation and application of Article V(1)(e) of the New York Convention varies depending on what country enforcement is sought. To avoid contributing to further inconsistencies, it is necessary for Swedish authorities and practitioners to consider the issues addressed in the study.

Chasse et exploitation minière au Nunavut : une expérience inuit du territoire à Qamani'tuaq (Baker Lake)Laneuville, Pascale 19 April 2018 (has links)
L’objectif de cette recherche est d’évaluer l’impact de la mine d’or de Meadowbank sur la relation entre la communauté inuit de Qamani’tuaq, au Nunavut, et son territoire. Ce dernier est défini comme un espace socialement et historiquement construit et dont le sens émerge de l’expérience quotidienne et de la mémoire collective. Mon étude démontre une multitude d’impacts socioéconomiques, positifs comme négatifs, découlant notamment des nouveaux emplois et des répercussions sur le caribou. La construction d’une route privée et l’imposition d’une régulation quant à son utilisation impliquent par ailleurs une contradiction entre deux formes de territorialité. Cependant, le rapport au territoire, propre aux Inuit, demeure manifeste. Une majorité d’Inuit démontre en effet la capacité à tirer avantage du nouveau contexte dans le but de supporter leurs activités sur le territoire. Aussi, les expériences particulières des travailleurs au camp minier témoignent du lien étroit entre le lieu, la communauté et son histoire. / The goal of this research is to evaluate the effects of the Meadowbank goldmine on the relationship occurring between the Inuit community of Qamani’tuaq, in Nunavut, and its territory. Territory is the social and historical construction of a space which derives meaning through the everyday experience and the collective memory. The results show the existence of various socioeconomic impacts, both positive and negative, resulting among others from new jobs and from impact on caribou. The construction of a private road and the imposition of rules of usage present a contradiction between two kinds of territoriality. However, the specific Inuit way of being connected to the land continues to be expressed. Most Inuit show their ability to take advantage of the new situation in order to maintain their activities on the land. Also, the specific experiments of workers at the mining camp testify the close link between place, community and history.
