Author’s Note I learned such a great deal from this entire honors capstone project, that all the knowledge I have acquired can hardly be covered by what I wrote in these 50 pages. I learned so much more that I was not able to share both about Namibia and myself. I can now claim that I am knowledgeable about nearly all areas of Namibian history and life. I certainly am no expert, but after all of this research I can certainly consider myself reliable. I have never had such an extensive knowledge before of one academic area as a result of a school project. I also learned a lot about myself through this project. I learned how I can motivate myself to work, and I learned how I perform when I have to organize such a long and complicated paper, just to name a couple of things. The strange inability to be able to include everything I learned from doing this project is the reason for some of the more random appendices at the end, as I have a passion for both numbers and trivia.

  • The Sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories in the Brexit Era

    The Sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories in the Brexit Era

    Island Studies Journal, 15(1), 2020, 151-168 The sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories in the Brexit era Maria Mut Bosque School of Law, Universitat Internacional de Catalunya, Spain MINECO DER 2017-86138, Ministry of Economic Affairs & Digital Transformation, Spain Institute of Commonwealth Studies, University of London, UK [email protected] (corresponding author) Abstract: This paper focuses on an analysis of the sovereignty of two territorial entities that have unique relations with the United Kingdom: the Crown Dependencies and the British Overseas Territories (BOTs). Each of these entities includes very different territories, with different legal statuses and varying forms of self-administration and constitutional linkages with the UK. However, they also share similarities and challenges that enable an analysis of these territories as a complete set. The incomplete sovereignty of the Crown Dependencies and BOTs has entailed that all these territories (except Gibraltar) have not been allowed to participate in the 2016 Brexit referendum or in the withdrawal negotiations with the EU. Moreover, it is reasonable to assume that Brexit is not an exceptional situation. In the future there will be more and more relevant international issues for these territories which will remain outside of their direct control, but will have a direct impact on them. Thus, if no adjustments are made to their statuses, these territories will have to keep trusting that the UK will be able to represent their interests at the same level as its own interests.

  • Mental Capacity Issues

    Mental Capacity Issues

    Mental Capacity Issues - Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands Rowena Lawrence is Counsel and Tim Haynes is a Partner at Walkers (First appeared in the STEP Hong Kong Branch Newsletter (December 2015) Rowena Lawrence and Tim Haynes of Walkers provide an overview of the relevant regimes for mental capacity legislation in the BVI and the Cayman Islands. Hong Kong’s ageing population and the ongoing popularity of offshore structures will make the legislation in the major offshore jurisdictions concerning mental capacity issues increasingly relevant. Perhaps conscious of this, the legislators in both the British Virgin Islands (BVI) and the Cayman Islands have recently updated their rules in this area. The mental health legislation in both the Cayman Islands and the BVI has been reformed relatively recently to safeguard the rights of mentally incapacitated individuals. That legislation provides the courts with broad powers over the property and affairs of mental health patients. Given the constantly evolving jurisdictional arguments that arise in the courts of both Cayman and BVI, while it is unusual for individuals who are parties to Financial Services Division (Cayman) or Commercial Division (BVI) actions to be resident in those jurisdictions, there are circumstances in which it may be necessary to consider the application of laws of those jurisdictions when incapacitated persons are involved. An application to the offshore court may be made in a number of situations, for example where the individual concerned holds property (most obviously shares in an offshore company) in the offshore jurisdiction or where there is no obvious or effective order available in the jurisdiction in which the incapacitated individual resides.

    PROCEEDINGS OF THE CARIBBEAN FOOD CROPS SOCIETY EIGHTH ANNUAL MEETING SANTO DOMINGO DOMINICAN REPUBLIC 197 0 VOLUME VIII 29 THE EVALUATION OF TOMATO VARIETIES IN THE LEEWARD ISLANDS: A PROGRESS REPORT St. C. M. Forde Leeward Islands Agronomist University of the West Indies St. John's Antigua INTRODUCTION In the Leeward Islands the production of tomatoes is largely in the hands of peasant farmers who make use of commercially available varieties. The crop is established during the period September- November and matures in December-March which coincides with the dry season and also the period, of lowest mean minimum temperatures (70- 72°F). Even at the peak of production, local market demands in Antigua and St. Kitts are not satisfied, but production levels in Montserrat allow for some export of produce to the New York as well as other Caribbean markets. The main problems associated with the industry are the evalua tion of commercially available varieties according to time of plan- ting, and extending production into the dry season by the introduc- tion of irrigation. At the University of the West Indies research in tomato breeding is aimed at developing varieties for increased yield under dry season conditions and high yielding varieties that will set fruit at night temperatures above 72° for wet season production. However there is a pressing need in the Leeward Islands to examine the performance of the commercial varieties available in the area, especially in relation to time of planting. It is against this background that this work was undertaken. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five 6x5 randomised complete block trials were carried out in Antigua, Montserrat and St.
