  • From an Autonomous Province to a Habsburg Principality
    FROM AN AUTONOMOUS PROVINCE TO A HABSBURG PRINCIPALITY. THE LEGISLATIVE ROLE OF THE TRANSYLVANIAN DIET DURING THE 18TH CENTURY Gelu Fodor* Keywords: Werböczy, Tripartitum, constitution, Diet, Pragmatic Sanction, legislative system Cuvinte cheie: Werböczy, Tripartitum, constituţie, dietă, Pragmatica Sancţiune, sistem legislativ Introductory considerations Our approach aims to shed light on the evolution of the Transylvanian constitution and constitutionalism after the incorporation of the Principality of Transylvania within the administrative structures of the Habsburg Empire, the upper chronological limit being the provisions the Diet issued in 1791. In order to achieve this goal, we intend to examine all the aspects that contributed decisively to shaping the constitutional realities in the Principality, focusing in particular on the institutional and legislative role of the Diet, as a representative authority for the nobility in its relationship with the Habsburg sovereigns. The conquest of Transylvania by the Habsburgs gradually brought about major changes as regards the law-making institutions, and some of these changes were made with the direct involvement of the Diet. The central aspect on which we shall dwell and which, in our opinion, was the quintessence of the entire legislative process unfolding throughout the 18th century, revolved around the articles of law enacted by the Diet of 1744 and, respectively, of the Diet of 1791. By analysing their specific provisions, we shall attempt to highlight the changes that took place in the constitutional structure of the Principality up until the turn of the 19th century. Another point of interest for our study revolves around what certain historians regard as the very foundation of the Transylvanian political system, namely the Constitutions of Transylvania: Werböczy’s Tripartitum, Aprobatae Constitutiones and Compilatae Constitutiones.

  • Migration Profile of Serbia
    Migration Profile Country perspective EXTENDED VERSION Serbia In the framework of MMWD – Making Migration Work for Development, the WP7 activities foresee the launch of a Transnational Platform for Policy Dialogue and Cooperation as an effort to support governments to address the consequence of Demographic trends on SEE territories. In particular, this platform will involve policy makers and decision makers at the national and sub-national level to promote the adoption of more effective services and regulations of the migration flows across the SEE area. In order to support and stimulate the dialogue within the Platform ad hoc migration profiles (MPs) will be developed for each partner country and will integrate the information and knowledge already provided by Demographic projections and Policy scenarios. The current MP focuses on the case of Serbia and it’s centred around five topics: resident foreign population by gender, age cohorts and citizenship; population flows (internal migration, emigration, immigration); immigrants presence in the national labour market; foreign population by level of educational attainment; remittances/transfers of money to country of origin. These topics have been selected among the MMWD panel of indicators relevant to describe demographic 1.

  • Challenges of Diverse Migration Flows in Italy's Autonomous Province Of
    2016 ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CAROLINAE PAG. 65–85 STUDIA TERRITORIALIA 2 CHALLENGES OF DIVERSE MIGRATION FLOWS IN ITALY’S AUTONOMOUS PROVINCE OF SOUTH TYROL MERITA H. MEÇE CLEMSON UNIVERSITY Abstract Diverse migration flows have significantly increased in Italy’s autonomous province of South Tyrol since the 1990s. This new social phenomenon has presented a range of challenges to the province’s special autonomy status, which is based on power-sharing, proportional representation, a minori- ty veto and the preservation of three old cultural and linguistic groups: German-, Italian-, and Ladin-speaking. This paper examines the challenges of diverse migration flows in South Tyrol with special emphasis on: a) the civil/political dimension, b) the socio-economic dimension, and c) the cultural dimension. It employs secondary quantitative data drawn from the statistical yearbooks of the autonomous province and conducts qualitative desk research on various legal and policy docu- ments as well as other reports and studies. It finds that in the highly-divided society of South Tyrol, a defensive approach to migration propagated by the political elite and supported by provincial pol- icies and laws increases the gap in legitimacy between new minorities arriving in migration and older existing linguistic minorities. Such a situation calls for more welcoming and inclusive approaches to address the issues raised by migration in the autonomous province. Keywords: South Tyrol; migration; human rights; linguistic minorities; local representation in power-sharing DOI: 10.14712/23363231.2017.12 1. Introduction Migration has been an increasing phenomenon in Italy during the last decades. The 2011 census data showed that the number of foreign-born people Merita H.

Thus the Chatham House Arbitration Database (CHAD) cannot be regarded as covering all disputes.

  • A Global Listing of Sub-National Island Jurisdictions
    A Global liSting of Sub-National Island Jurisdictions Kathleen Stuart Pulling Strings 174 - A Global Listing of Sub-National Island Jurisdictions Policy Insights for Prince Edward Island A Global liSting of Sub-National Island Jurisdictions To illustrate their geographic dispersion and political diversity, this chap­ ter presents readers with a map and a selected list of Sub-National Is­ land Jurisdictions (SNlJs) around the world. Further information on the islands in the list can be found in the online SNIJ database available from the University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. This online research tool has provided a major resource for the papers presented in "Pulling Strings" and deserves a few words by way of background. During 2004, very significant research activity of unprecedented international scope was unleashed within the Arts Faculty at the Uni­ versity of Prince Edward Island, made possible by the receipt of a gener­ ous Standard Research Grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (S SHRC). Over the following 18 months during three separate work terms, a dozen or more graduate students, primarily from the fledgling Master of Arts Program in Island Stud­ ies, were tasked to develop factual dossiers on each SNIJ. The online database, an important component in the educational process as well as an innovative tool for comparative islands research, was conceived by Godfrey Baldacchino, Canada Research Chair in Island Studies, who led the "Jurisd iction Project". The rationale behind this ambitious project is outlined in more detail in the Baldacchino chapter, "Prince Edward Island as a Sub-National Island Jurisdiction".

  • Uti Possidetis Juris, and the Borders of Israel
    PALESTINE, UTI POSSIDETIS JURIS, AND THE BORDERS OF ISRAEL Abraham Bell* & Eugene Kontorovich** Israel’s borders and territorial scope are a source of seemingly endless debate. Remarkably, despite the intensity of the debates, little attention has been paid to the relevance of the doctrine of uti possidetis juris to resolving legal aspects of the border dispute. Uti possidetis juris is widely acknowledged as the doctrine of customary international law that is central to determining territorial sovereignty in the era of decolonization. The doctrine provides that emerging states presumptively inherit their pre-independence administrative boundaries. Applied to the case of Israel, uti possidetis juris would dictate that Israel inherit the boundaries of the Mandate of Palestine as they existed in May, 1948. The doctrine would thus support Israeli claims to any or all of the currently hotly disputed areas of Jerusalem (including East Jerusalem), the West Bank, and even potentially the Gaza Strip (though not the Golan Heights).

The Treaty was considered as one-sided attempt to solve the Eastern Question by Britain and Austro-Hungary. So they insisted a revision of the Treaty. Thus the Great Power met in Berlin with the aim to be re-established the order in the Balkans providing each of the Great Powers with proportioned influence in the region. At the Congress of Berlin the large Bulgarian state was divided into three parts and thus was created the province of Eastern Rumelia remaining the authority of the Sultan. The establishment of autonomous province was decided during а bilateral negotiations between Britain and Russian at the time of the diplomatic preparation of the Congress. The growing rivalry between the two Great Powers regarding the Ottoman Empire’s territories in the second half of the 19 century required compromises and Eastern Rumelia was one of them. The aim of this paper is to examine the struggle between Russia and Britain during the organization of the province of Eastern Rumelia at the Balkans. The research focus on the British and Russian policy executed during the time of elaboration of Organic Law and organization of the administrative institutions of the province.

  • Serbia and Montenegro
    Serbia and Montenegro Self-rule INSTITUTIONAL DEPTH AND POLICY SCOPE Serbia and Montenegro, the legal successor of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, was a federation between 1992 and 2002, a confederation between 2003 and 2006, and becaMe two independent states in June 2006 (Batt 2002, 2007; Crnohrnja 2002). 1 The federation and confederation consisted of two republics: Serbia (Republika Srbija) and Montenegro (Republika Crna Gora). Serbia contained two autonomous regions, Kosovo (Kosovo i Metohija) and Vojvodina (Autonomna Pokrajina Vojvodina). Serbia was divided into twentY-nine okruzi (districts), of which five districts are in Kosovo, plus the capital city of Belgrade (Beograd) which also served as a district. Montenegro had no intermediate tier. The 1992 constitution listed federal competences and granted the constituent republics residual powers. AMong federal competences were civil rights, regulation of the single Market (including standard setting on agricultural, health, and pharmaceutical products), the environment, health, regional development, science and technology, transportation, territorial waters, property rights, social security and labor standards, foreign relations, customs, iMMigration, and defense (C 1992, Art. 77). All other Matters fell within the jurisdiction of the republics, including the right to conduct foreign relations and conclude treaties on Matters within their competence. Citizenship was a competence of the republics, with the proviso that citizens of a republic were automatically citizens of Serbia–Montenegro and enjoyed equal rights and duties in the other republic, except for the right to vote and be elected (C 1992, Art. 17). The constitutional revision of 2003 restricted confederal competences to defense, iMMigration, international law, standardization, intellectual property, and free MoveMent of people (C 2003, Art.

  • A Comparative Analysis of Island Region Autonomy
    A Comparative Analysis of Island Region Autonomy Eve Hepburn University of Edinburgh WORK IN PROGRESS: PLEASE DO NOT CITE WITHOUT AUTHOR’S PERMISSION. COMMENTS GRATEFULLY RECEIVED Senior Research Fellow Politics & IR, School of Social and Political Science University of Edinburgh 21 George Square Edinburgh EH8 9LD Email: [email protected] Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Political Science Association (CPSA), Concordia University, Montreal, 1-3 June 2010 1 Introduction Islands have developed some of the most innovative autonomy arrangements in the world. Many small island peoples have repeatedly rejected outright independence in favour of developing unique forms of constitutional status within larger state or supranational bodies (Watts 2000; Baldacchino 2006). Islands such as Åland, Aruba, the Isle of Man, Puerto Rico, and dozens of other island territories have agreed to share their sovereignty with larger political structures rather than seek full state sovereignty. This has led to the creation of a plethora of terms to characterise the substate governance arrangement of islands, such as: ‘autonomous province’ (Åland Islands, Finland), ‘associate state’ (Anguilla, UK), ‘overseas territory’ (British Virgin Islands), ‘special region’ (Sardinia, Italy), ‘commonwealth territory’ (Cocos Islands, Australia), ‘overseas department’ (Reunion, France), ‘federal province’ (Newfoundland, Canada), and ‘autonomous region’ (Azores Islands, Portugal). The variety of substate governance arrangements of small islands presents a boon to scholars wishing to understand the wide range of currently existing institutional forms of autonomy, and how autonomy may be applied in a variety of settings. In particular, there is a need to explore why islands have so overwhelmingly sought to enhance their power, influence and capacity by developing distinct forms of asymmetrical autonomy rather than outright independence.

CHAPTER II INDONESIA AT A GLANCE: THE PEOPLE, THE STATE AND THE GOVERNMENTAL INSTITUTIONAL AND LEGAL FRAMEWORK 2.1. Introduction This book is concerned with the ways in which government agencies in the West Java Province and the city of Bandung formulate land use planning in the context of spatial management. Issues raised in the following chapters will discuss how government units use the law and what the law’s impact is on their ability to govern. Accordingly, to better understand the issues at hand, it will be necessary to offer readers an overview of the legal and institutional framework of the Indonesian state and formal legal system. The legal situation pertaining to land use planning will be dealt with separately and discussed in the ensuing chapters. This chapter is divided into three parts. The first part will be a general territorial and demographic description of Indonesia. The reason for this is that the legal and institutional framework cannot be properly understood without having information, even if superfluous, about the demographic and geographical condition of Indonesia and related governance problems related to it.
