  • The Legal Constitution of the European Union2
    European Scientific Journal August 2018 /SPECIAL/ edition ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 2 The Legal Constitution of the European Union Academic Director Dr. iur. Dr. phil. Franz-Rudolf Herber Frederic-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany Doi: 10.19044/esj.2018.c4p9 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2018.c4p9 Abstract World War II (1939 – 1945) was a catastrophe for the whole world and for Europe in particular. It is one of the great miracles of the 20th century that the West European war parties did draw a line and founded an economic alliance for coal and steel production. This economical alliance is based on common values and on the rule of law. A main problem of the European Union is to give a democratic legitimation to the European institutions. It is good that e.g. the European Parliament is elected directly, it is bad that e.g. the President of the European Commission is not elected directly. In some Member States of the European Union common values and common interests are only partim shared. The people of Great Britain did decide in 2016 to leave the European Union; according to the legal constitution of the European Union a leave is allowed. The main achievement of the European Union is the abolition of inter-European taxes and thus the promotion of economical relationships between the Member States of the European Union. The Euro that is the currency of (only) some Member States has become a global player. Keywords: European Union, Member States of the European Union, Treaties of the European Union, common values, common market, separation of powers, European Commission, European Parliament, President of the European Council, High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, European Central Bank Introduction One should be aware of the fact what kind of brutal military violence the greatest war criminal of human history – Adolf Hitler (1883 – 1945) and his crazy followers – had brought to the former Czechoslovakia (CSSR)3.

  • 10, George C. Marshall
    'The views expressed are those of the author and do not reflect the official policy or position of the US Air Force, Department of Defense or the US Government.'" USAFA Harmon Memorial Lecture #10 “George C. Marshall: Global Commander” Forrest C. Pogue, 1968 It is a privilege to be invited to give the tenth lecture in a series which has become widely-known among teachers and students of military history. I am, of course, delighted to talk with you about Gen. George C. Marshall with whose career I have spent most of my waking hours since1956. Douglas Freeman, biographer of two great Americans, liked to say that he had spent twenty years in the company of Gen. Lee. After devoting nearly twelve years to collecting the papers of General Marshall and to interviewing him and more than 300 of his contemporaries, I can fully appreciate his point. In fact, my wife complains that nearly any subject from food to favorite books reminds me of a story about General Marshall. If someone serves seafood, I am likely to recall that General Marshall was allergic to shrimp. When I saw here in the audience Jim Cate, professor at the University of Chicago and one of the authors of the official history of the U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II, I recalled his fondness for the works of G.A. Henty and at once there came back to me that Marshall once said that his main knowledge of Hannibal came from Henty's The Young Carthaginian. If someone asks about the General and Winston Churchill, I am likely to say, "Did you know that they first met in London in 1919 when Marshall served as Churchill's aide one afternoon when the latter reviewed an American regiment in Hyde Park?" Thus, when I mentioned to a friend that I was coming to the Air Force Academy to speak about Marshall, he asked if there was much to say about the General's connection with the Air Force.

  • Churchill's Dark Side
    Degree Programme: Politics with a Minor (EUUB03) Churchill’s Dark Side To What Extent did Winston Churchill have a Dark Side from 1942-1945? Abstract 1 Winston Churchill is considered to be ‘one of history's greatest leaders; without his 1 leadership, the outcome of World War II may have been completely different’0F . This received view has dominated research, subsequently causing the suppression of Churchill’s critical historical revisionist perspective. This dissertation will explore the boundaries of the revisionist perspective, whilst the aim is, simultaneously, to assess and explain the extent Churchill had a ‘dark side’ from 1942-1945. To discover this dark side, frameworks will be applied, in addition to rational and irrational choice theory. Here, as part of the review, the validity of rational choice theory will be questioned; namely, are all actions rational? Hence this research will construct another viewpoint, that is irrational choice theory. Irrational choice theory stipulates that when the rational self-utility maximisation calculation is not completed correctly, actions can be labelled as irrational. Specifically, the evaluation of the theories will determine the legitimacy of Churchill’s dark actions. Additionally, the dark side will be 2 3 assessed utilising frameworks taken from Furnham et al1F , Hogan2F and Paulhus & 4 Williams’s dark triad3F ; these bring depth when analysing the presence of a dark side; here, the Bengal Famine (1943), Percentage Agreement (1944) and Operation 1 Matthew Gibson and Robert J.

  • Winston Churchill Fact File
    Winston Churchill Fact File Winston Churchill is a very famous British Prime Minister. He is famous because he was Prime Minister twice and because he led Britain to win the Second World War. Childhood He was born Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill on 30th November 1874 at Blenheim Palace near Oxford. His father was Lord Randolph, a Conservative politician, and his mother was called Jeanette. When he was 13, he wasn’t doing very well at Harrow school and only just got into the lowest class, so his father put in the army class. Early Career He started his army career as a cadet in 1893 at Sandhurst army training centre, after having three tries to pass the entrance exam. He eventually became an officer and war reporter. In 1898, he fought in the Sudan in North East Africa, but he knew that politics was his goal. He spent time following the news from home and doing lots of reading. Famous Churchill Quotes: “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” “Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.” “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.” “We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender.” Politics At the 1900 general election, people voted for him to become the MP (Member of Parliament) for Oldham in Lancashire.

  • The Yalta Conference
    Page 29 Chapter 6 The Yalta Conference hile Germany and the Allies were engaged in the Battle of the Bulge, US President Franklin WRoosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill prepared to meet with Marshall Joseph Stalin of the USSR. The three leaders were scheduled to confer on Soviet territory at the Black Sea resort town of Yalta in early February 1945. The Big Three, as they were called, had previously met in Teheran, Iran, where they had discussed plans to defeat the Axis. Stalin, still concerned that the brunt of Germany’s forces were directed at Russia, inquired again as to when the Western allies would divert Hitler’s attention from the eastern front by opening up a second front in France. This time, with Germany at the verge of defeat, the leaders of the Grand Alliance met to determine the nature of the post-Axis peace. They would redraw the world map and decide the boundary lines of countries in Europe and Asia. Specifically, they would reach crucial decisions on Germany, Poland, Eastern Europe, Japan, and on the formation of the United Nations. This chapter provides information to enable your class to re-enact the Yalta Conference. Each of you will play the part of an advisor to one of the three most powerful people in the world: Franklin Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, or Joseph Stalin. The class will actually make decisions on issues that were discussed by these world leaders. Your job will be to get the best possible deal for your country. At the same time, you must maintain the wartime alliance essential to defeat Germany and Japan.

  • British Perfidy in Greece: a Story Worth Remembering - Ed Vulliamy and Helena Smith
    British perfidy in Greece: a story worth remembering - Ed Vulliamy and Helena Smith An account of the time in 1944 when the British Army, at war with Germany switched their allegiance, opening fire upon – and arming Greek collaborators with the Nazis to fire upon – a civilian crowd in Syntagma Square. “I can still see it very clearly, I have not forgotten,” says Titos Patrikios; “the police firing on the crowd from the roof of the parliament at the top of Syntagma Square in Athens. The young men and women lying in pools of blood, everyone rushing down the stairs in total shock, total panic.” And then came the defining moment: the recklessness of jeunesse, the passion of belief in a justice burning bright: “I jumped up on the fountain in the middle of the square, the one that is still there, and I began to shout: “Comrades, don’t disperse! Victory will be ours! Don’t leave. The time has come. We will win!” “I was,” he says now, “absolutely sure, profoundly sure, that we were going to win”. But there was no winning that day; just as there was no pretending that what had happened would not change the history of a country that, liberated from Adolf Hitler’s Reich barely six weeks earlier, was now surging headlong towards bloody civil war. Seventy years may have passed but time has not diminished how Titos Patrikios felt that day. Nor has it dented his recollection of events. Even now, at 86, when he “laughs at and with myself that I have reached such an age”, the poet can remember, scene-for-scene, shot for shot, what happened on the central square of Greek political life, on the morning of December 3, 1944.

  • Winston Churchill!
    Winston Churchill! By Georgia North Winston’s Inspirations! Winston was inspired by, Edward Gibbons -Edward Gibbons, -Thomas Babington, -Sir Randolf Churchill, -Edward Hyde, Sir -John Churchill, Randolf! -Clement Attlee, -Anthony Eden -John F. Kennedy. Some Of Winston’s Quotes During WW2 -Let us go forward together -Never,never,never give up. -Everyone has his day and some days last longer than others. -Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference. Winston playing his part! -Winston Churchill had a very important job as Prime Minister. He had to make sure that the army wasn’t cutting down on work. - He must have been thinking about children as well, because he looked after them by sending them to people in the countryside, who would be happy to look after them until the war has ended! That’s Mad! I bet you didn’t know that Winston Churchill built a house for his wife, and it was only meant to cost £5,000 and take 3-5 months to build! But he went over time and finished around two years later, and went over budget and ended up spending £18,000! His wife, Clementine, was not happy about the prices! Another thing that’s pretty mad about Winston, was that he did an incredible Gorilla impression! He was pretty famous as well for that! Now, I'll show you a short video on Winston Churchill! Winston Churchill song! In the video, Winston Churchill talks/sings what he did during WW2. Any Questions? Thank you for watching!.
