  • Condominiums and Shared Sovereignty | 1
    Condominiums and Shared Sovereignty | 1 Condominiums And Shared Sovereignty Abstract As the United Kingdom (UK) voted to leave the European Union (EU), the future of Gibraltar, appears to be in peril. Like Northern Ireland, Gibraltar borders with EU territory and strongly relies on its ties with Spain for its economic stability, transports and energy supplies. Although the Gibraltarian government is struggling to preserve both its autonomy with British sovereignty and accession to the European Union, the Spanish government states that only a form of joint- sovereignty would save Gibraltar from the same destiny as the rest of UK in case of complete withdrawal from the EU, without any accession to the European Economic Area (Hard Brexit). The purpose of this paper is to present the concept of Condominium as a federal political system based on joint-sovereignty and, by presenting the existing case of Condominiums (i.e. Andorra). The paper will assess if there are margins for applying a Condominium solution to Gibraltar. Condominiums and Shared Sovereignty | 2 Condominium in History and Political Theory The Latin word condominium comes from the union of the Latin prefix con (from cum, with) and the word dominium (rule). Watts (2008: 11) mentioned condominiums among one of the forms of federal political systems. As the word suggests, it is a form of shared sovereignty involving two or more external parts exercising a joint form of sovereignty over the same area, sometimes in the form of direct control, and sometimes while conceding or maintaining forms of self-government on the subject area, occasionally in a relationship of suzerainty (Shepheard, 1899).

Renewable Energy 3. INFORMATION SOURCES AND OTHER NGO’S: 4. INTERVIEWS 1 1. CONTEXT The Balearic Islands are an archipelago in the Mediterranean, east of the Spanish mainland. Scientists regard these islands as one of the best-kept marine environments in the Mediterranean region. However, its ecosystems face significant pressure, due to many reasons including; recreational and industrial overfishing, mass tourism, inappropriate sewage systems, water consumption, boats anchoring in vulnerable areas, pollution from plastics and other materials etc. Menorca is the furthest east of the islands and is often called the jewel of the Mediterranean due to it traditionally being more low-key than its neighbours, Mallorca and Ibiza. This has often resulted in Menorca being side-lined in terms of funding and legislative priorities allocated from the Govern Balear (based in Mallorca) to protect its natural ecosystems and biodiversity. Menorca has an approximate population of 90,000 people and a surface of 700km2. However, during the summer months, the population rises to over 200,000 people. The island is divided into 8 administrative authorities (town halls) and these are governed by the Consell Insular de Menorca (CIME) who is in turn governed by the Govern de les Illes Balears. The Govern de las Illes Balears (GOIB) is responsible for making legal decisions affecting education, health, water, renewable energy and marine conservation, amongst others. However, with regards to the preservation of Menorca, the current Consell Insular is taking on a much more hands-on approach as they feel that the decisions affecting the island should be made, or at the very least informed by, the islands local government and town halls.

  • Singing in the Factory: Musical Practice Among Menorca's
    Singing in the Factory: Musical Practice among Menorca’s Shoemakers Amadeu Corbera Jaume and Eulàlia Febrer Coll Introduction: Geographical and Social Context Menorca is the most eastern member of the Balearic Islands, in the Mediterranean Sea. Even though it belongs to Spain, it is part of the so­called Catalan Countries, and so the predominant language there is Catalan. It is the least­populous of these Islands, with about 90.000 inhabitants, which makes it look like a rural area to foreign eyes. However, as we are going to see, it has been, in fact, the most industrialised of them all with a special relevance in the areas of shoemaking and costume jewellery. This paper will make a first approach to the data collected in the research project Popular ​ Singing and Industrialisation in Menorca, supported by the Institut Menorquí d’Estudis and ​ the Institut Ramon Muntaner, two scientific non­profit Catalan organizations. We will also look at some of our first conclusions and present some preliminary ideas to be included in the theoretical frame. Theoretical Frame: Singing at Work, Singing in the Factory Our research focuses on singing at work in the industrial environment. Even if this is a quite uncommon approach in the field of Ethnomusicology, much work has been done in the Catalan­speaking area in the past 80 years. In the 1920s, the Catalan ethnomusicologist Baltasar Samper, was one of the first scholars to notice the relationship between singing and working simultaneously in a work environment in the Islands, although his work focused basically on agrarian activities.

  • Inmigración En Gibraltar Procedente De Las Otras Colonias Británicas Del Mediterráneo: Menorca En El Siglo XVIII Y Malta En E
    INMIGRACIÓN EN GIBRALTAR PROCEDENTE DE LAS OTRAS COLONIAS BRITÁNICAS DEL MEDITERRÁNEO: MENORCA EN EL SIGLO XVIII, Y MALTA EN EL SIGLO XIX Tito BENADY1 Resumen: Por razones obvias, y especialmente militares, Gibraltar siempre tuvo conexiones es- trechas con las otras colonias británicas del Mediterráneo occidental, y esto trajo un cierto número de inmigrantes a la ciudad. En el caso de Menorca esta inmigración comenzó a principios del siglo XVII pero aumentó en los años posteriores a 1783 en que la isla fue devuelta a España, por razones económicas en la isla. En el caso de Malta esto ocurrió en los últimos tres decenios del siglo XIX, y fue facilitada por la conexión semanal de los vapores que iban y volvían de India. La mayoría de inmigrantes llegaron para trabajar en el puerto. La mayoría eran cargadores de carbón. Palabras claves: Inmigración, Gibraltar, Malta, Menorca Summary: For a number of reasons, mostly military Gibraltar had strong connections with other British colonies in the western Mediterranean and a number of immigrants from these colonies sett- led in the city. As far as Minorca was concerned the bulk of the emigrants arrive after the island had been returned to Spain, because of the deteriorating economic situation in the island. Immigration from Malta took place in the last third of the nineteenth century. It was facilitated by the weekly steamer service of steamships going and returning from India, and most of the immigrants were coal heavers in the port. Key words: Immigration, Gibraltar, Malta Menorca. MENORCA Durante la Guerra de Sucesión, la isla de Menorca fue ocupada por la Ro- yal Navy al servicio del Archiduque de Austria.
