At stake is the extent of many countries’ capacity to tax investment UC income of individuals and profits of closely held businesses through an income tax in an increasingly financially integrated world. Incongruent initiatives of the European Union, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), Switzerland, and the United States together represent an emerging international regime in which financial institutions act to facilitate countries’ ability to tax their residents’ offshore accounts. The growing consensus that financial institutions should act as cross-border tax intermediaries represents a remarkable shift in international norms that has yet to be recognized in the academic literature. The debate, however, is about how financial institutions should serve as cross-border tax intermediaries, and for which countries. Different outcomes in this contest portend starkly different futures for the extent of cross-border tax administrative assistance available to most countries.

Problem Der Schutz und die Förderung von Kultur sind im Grundgesetz (GG) nicht aus- drücklich geregelt. Demgegenüber enthält das Europäische Verfassungsrecht mit Artikel 151 des EG-Vertrages einen Kulturartikel. Auch in nahezu allen Lan- desverfassungen sind der Schutz, die Pflege bzw. die Förderung von Kunst und Kultur eine staatliche Aufgabe von Verfassungsrang. Im GG gibt es bereits Staatszielbestimmungen, die die materiellen Bedingungen menschlicher Exis- tenz abdecken: das Sozialstaatsprinzip des Artikels 20 Abs. 1 GG sowie den Schutz der natürlichen Lebensgrundlagen und der Tiere durch Artikel 20a GG. Für die geistigen und ideellen Dimensionen menschlichen Daseins fehlt eine entsprechende Bestimmung. B. Lösung Das Grundgesetz wird um den neuen Artikel 20b mit dem Wortlaut „Der Staat schützt und fördert die Kultur.“ ergänzt. C. Alternativen Keine D. Kosten Die verfassungsrechtliche Zielbestimmung hat keine unmittelbare Kostenfolge. Drucksache 16/387 – 2 – Deutscher Bundestag – 16.

    iesmal dauert es fast 20 Minuten, bis jemand nach der DDR fragt. DLukrezia Jochimsen sitzt vor ei - nem Mikrofon im Landtagsgebäude von In der Zeitmaschine Potsdam, zwei Dutzend Abgeordnete der Brandenburger Linken hören zu, wie sie Luc Jochimsen wurde aufgestellt, weil Joachim Gauck für viele von ihrer Kindheit im Krieg erzählt, von Gandhi und ihrer Haltung zu Afghani - in der Linken unwählbar ist. Sie trat mit der Absicht an, Ost stan, bis ein Abgeordneter aus der Tiefe und West zu versöhnen. Nun spaltet sie sogar das eigene Lager. des Raums die Frage nach vorn wirft, wie sie das meinte, als sie sagte, die DDR sei kein Unrechtsstaat gewesen. Jochimsen holt Luft. Wolfgang Thierse, der Vizepräsident des Bundestages, nann - te ihre Äußerungen schäbig und beschä - mend, der CDU-Generalsekretär Her - mann Gröhe sagte, sie verhöhne die Op - fer des DDR-Regimes. Jochimsens Partei, die Linke, will weg vom Ost- und Stasi- Image, aber ihr ist die Frage gar nicht un - angenehm. Ihre Kandidatur hat jetzt ein Leitmotiv. Die DDR. Wenigstens das. Die Kameras sind jetzt wieder da, wie früher. Ab und zu müssen ihr die Kameraleute nur sagen, sie solle nicht in das Objektiv schauen, sondern seitlich zu dem Mann mit dem Mikro in der Hand. Lukrezia Jochimsen ist 74 Jahre alt, ge - boren in Nürnberg, aufgewachsen in Düs - seldorf und Frankfurt, mit der DDR hatte sie zuweilen beruflich zu tun. Sie war Re - dakteurin des Fernsehmagazins „Panora - ma“, ARD-Korrespondentin in London und Chefredakteurin des Hessischen Rund - funks, die Zuschauer kannten sie als Luc Jochimsen. 2001 ging sie in den Ruhestand.

  • How to Configure Euro Sign Symbol to Show Whenever Key Combination Is Pressed on Debian Linux
    Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog How to configure Euro sign symbol to show whenever key combination is pressed on Debian Linux Author : admin Today I realized that I have no standard way to make the Euro sign on my Linux. I'm a using a normal notebook qwerty keyboard on my Thinkpad and a Debian Linux. For Microsoft Windows there are plenty of keyboard combinations to make the Euro sign to appear on the screen. In Windows; 1. On UK Keyboard the euro sign shows when AltGr (Right Alt Button) + 5 is pressed. 2. On US keyboard the euro sign is invoked via keyboard combination; AltGr (Right Alt) + 5 3. On all kind of keyboards in Windows the Euro sign is visualized by ; holding Alt and typing 0128 : However in my GNOME on Linux the universal way to insert the euro sign by holding alt with 0128 did not worked out. I've found plenty of things related to how the euro sign could be produced on Linux, most of the info I found however didn't gave me a clue how can I achieve this simple task. At that time I've found on a forum on the net, that in Gnome the euro sign producing can be configured via GNOME's Control Panel So to assign a keyboard configuration which will be able to produce the euro sign; 1. Go to Gnome's Keyboard settings System -> Preferences -> Keyboard 1 / 2 Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog 2.

    FINANCIAL CRISIS AND LEGITIMACY OF GLOBAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS Masaki Kusano Graduate School of Economics, Kyoto University [email protected] ∗ Masatsugu Sanada Graduate School of Business, Osaka City University [email protected] May, 2013 ∗ Corresponding author FINANCIAL CRISIS AND LEGITIMACY OF GLOBAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ABSTRACT Purpose : to examine and clarify a mechanism of global accounting standard-setting and accounting regulation, especially to investigate the legitimation crises of global accounting standards and their restoration process focusing on the IASB’s response to the financial crisis. Methodology : institutional theory and an analytical framework of ‘decoupling, compromises, and systematic dominance’ Findings : We find that the IASB decoupled its regular due process in order to maintain the endorsement mechanisms in the EU and avoid a further carve-out. To reconcile the concerns about the IASB’s governance from the U.S. and the outside of Europe, the IASB established the monitoring board with compromising its expertise principle laying weight on independence with the request for enhancing its accountability. We also find that the IASB systematically put a dominance position to the needs of the EU as the biggest customer. Originality/value : We show the complicated mechanism of accounting standard-setting which the mere debates of the politicization of accounting could not reveal, and clarify that the legitimacy of organization, procedure, and its outputs could not exist stand-alone, but mutually prerequisite or exist with reflexivity. This study extends our knowledge of global financial regulations and our discussion offers numerous suggestions to globalization, especially the IASB’s roles in the globalization of financial regulations, and regulatory forum or network centered on the IASB.
