Larissa van den Herik and Prof. dr. Yannick Radi. Their thoughtful guidance, advice and patience encouraged me along this journey. Our meetings at uncommon hours were an opportunity to test out and mature my ideas. I sincerely want to thank Ambassador Juan José Quintana, who introduced me to international law and stimulated in me a special interest in the law and practice of the International Court of Justice. Our conversations in Geneva and The Hague during the time I was doing research for the writing of my dissertation, provided me with valuable information from his experience on relevant aspects, for the purposes of this dissertation. Special thanks should also be extended to Prof. dr. Rodrigo Gonzalez Quin- tero, who I consider not only a colleague but friend. Thanks for encouraging me to begin this journey right after my LLM studies and for all the time spent discussing my ideas on the subject of the dissertation and for the unconditional support in the academic life. Thanks should also be extended to the School of Law of Universidad Sergio Arboleda, where I started my academic career and have had the opportunity to write and teach about international law. To the Rector Magnificus, mr. R. Noguera Calderón, and the former Dean of the School of Law, Prof. mr. J.M. del Castillo Abella, for their confidence. Without their funding this journey could not have been possible. To my colleagues, for the several conversa- tions we held on diverse aspects of the law and that made this journey much more enjoyable. Finally, to my family. My parents and my siblings for the unconditional understanding of my constant obsession about only focusing in this journey. To my wife and daughter: Sharon and Bianca. I am profoundly grateful for their love, unconditional support and patience during these years. You were the daily reason that impulse me to conclude this journey. 544424-L-bw-Sarmiento 544424-L-bw-Sarmiento Table of Contents Acknowledgements V Introduction 1 1.

The proliferation of dissenting opinions in international law During the last decades, international law has witnessed the phenomenon of the judicialization of international relations and, relatedly, the prolif- eration of international courts and tribunals.1 The judicial settlement of disputes was previously confined to certain specific fields and actors.2 The changes that took place in the legal practice before, throughout and after the Cold War, however, resulted in an increase in the adjudication of inter- national disputes also beyond the inter-state context. Karen Alter explains that these changes refer to the crystallization of the vision of subordinating power politics to an international rule of law.

Edward Dumbauld* In response to criticisms that the Declaration of Independence lacked originality,' its author Thomas Jefferson explained that the political purpose and object of that document was: not to find out new principles, or new arguments, never before thought of, not merely to say things which had never been said before; but to place before mankind the common sense of the sub- ject, in terms so plain and firm as to command their assent, and to justify ourselves in the independent stand we are compelled to take. Neither aiming at originality of principle or sentiment, nor yet cop- ied from any particular and previous writing,' it was intended to be an expression of the American mind, and to give to that expression the proper tone and spirit called for by the occasion.

C. 1 9 3 2. ü . 1582.) Am Beispiel der Reihe CH, CH2, CH3, CH.,, CH6, CHc wird gezeigt, daß die 4-Wertigkeit des C-Atoms sowohl die physikal. Stabilität des Mol. (CH5, CH0 sind vermutlich instabil wie He2) bedeutet als auch die Fähigkeit, durch einen Potential- Wall andere Atome vom Mol. fernzuhalten (was in CH, CH, u. CH3 nicht eintritt). In der Theorie von L e w is war für nichtpolare Moll, die Existenz von bindenden, paar­ weise auftretenden Elektronen u. völlig unbeteiligten Elektronen angenommen worden. Die Quantentheorie zeigt, daß außerdem noch „lockernde“ Elektronen (meistens paarweise) auftreten. Wird ein H+-Ion einem H-Atom genähert, so ist zweierlei „Reaktion“ möglich: entweder wird das 1 s-Elektron zu einem ( 1 5 o)-Elektron des H2+; dann ist bei seinem Umlauf das Elektron im Zeitmittel länger auf der Seite des ursprünglichen H-Atoms, die dem H+-Ion zugewendet ist u. es springt zu diesem hinüber u. wieder zurück, bis schließlich bei kleinem r die Umlaufsfrequenz gleich der Sprungfrequenz (gemeinsame Umlaufsbahn) wird; oder das Elektron 1 s wird zu 2 p o, dann ist es im Zeitmittel länger auf der dem genäherten H+-Ion abgewendeten Seite, zur Näherung der Kerne ist Energie notwendig, es entsteht eine „Abstoßungskurve“ H J+ (2 p o, 22 u+ ) im Gegensatz zur Potentialkurve (1 s o )2 2 a+, die ein Minimum besitzt. — Für 2 neutrale H-Atome ist auch zweierlei Verh. möglich: H (1 s) + H (1 s): 1.

  • Folklore, Folk Belief, and the Selkie
    Supernatural Beings in the Far North: Folklore, Folk Belief, and The Selkie NANCY CASSELL MCENTIRE Within the world of folklore, stories of people turning into animals are well known. Either by accident or by design, a person may become a malevolent wolf, a swan, a helpful bird, a magic seal, a dog, a cat. Sometimes these stories are presented as folktales, part of a fictitious, make-believe world. Other times they are presented as legends, grounded in a narrator’s credibility and connected to everyday life. They may be sung as ballads or their core truths may be implied in a familiar proverb. They also affect human behavior as folk belief. Occasionally, sympathetic magic is involved: the human imagination infers a permanent and contiguous relationship between items that once were either in contact or were parts of a whole that later became separated or transformed. A narrative found in Ireland, England, and North America depicts a man who spends a night in a haunted mill, where he struggles with a cat and cuts off the cat’s paw. In the morning, the wife of a local villager has lost her hand (Baughman: 99; Disenchantment / Motif no. D702.1.1). France, French-speaking Canada and French-speaking Louisiana have stories of the loup-garou, a shape- shifter who is a person trapped in the body of an animal. One might suspect that he or she has encountered a loup-garou if that the animal is unusually annoying, provoking anger and hostile action. One penetrating cut will break the spell that has kept it trapped in animal form.
