In this connection, we would like to bring to the attention of your Excellency’s Government information we have received concerning the appointment of new members of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), that is not in compliance with the Paris Principles and severely undermines the NHRC’s independence. According to the information received: On 20 April 2020, the President issued Ordinance 1 (of Nepali year 2077) aimed at restructuring the Constitutional Council. The Ordinance attracted a good deal of political and public opposition and was rolled back on 24 April 2020. On 15 December 2020, the President of Nepal issued Ordinance 10 (of Nepali year 2077) to amend the Constitutional Council (Functions, Duties, Powers and Procedures) Act, 2010, allowing the Council to hold its meetings without fulfillment of the quorum and to take decisions based on simple majority.

    Free Movement of People, Goods, Services, and Capital in the Context of the Balkan Stability Pact

    Free Movement of People, Goods, Services, and Capital in the Context of the Balkan Stability Pact Mladen Stanicic1 The Balkan Stability Pact is a strategic concept whose aim is to foster long-term peace and stability in South Eastern Europe. It is becoming an indispensable ele- ment of the global security structure that is currently being constructed in relations between the large powers—the U.S., Russia, and China—with the active partici- pation of the United Nations, the European Union, international financial institu- tions, and individual countries. As one of the sponsors of the Pact, the European Union is keenly interested in stability and peace among its next-door neighbors, some of whom are covered by the pending Eastern enlargement of the EU. This enlargement is intended to transcend centuries of civilizational and religious divi- sion in Europe, which have been the causes of many political and armed conflicts in the past. The vision of Europe in the twenty-first century, reaching all the way to the borders of the former Soviet Union, is that of a multicultural community encompassing states with diverse religious, ethnic, and cultural characteristics. The EU as an instrument of international integration is one of the most impor- tant elements in the process of globalization, which is in turn based on structural changes in the world economy. The theory of liberal internationalism views in- ternational integration as an inseparable aspect of globalization and a basic foun- dation for the realization of the concept of “peace by integration” in an interna- tional system characterized by increasing interdependence, economic and other- wise.2 Under the conditions of globalization, international integration is organized with the purpose of contributing to better control and coordination of international economic and political relations, and of improving nations' internal political and economic organization.

    Ecological Issues – Green and Blue – As a Niche for Croatia

    Međunarodne studije, god. 15, br. 4, 2015, str. 29-41 29 Pregledni rad UDK: 327(497.5) 502.1 Ecological issues – green and blue – as a niche for Croatia Sanja Bach * Summary Croatia, as a relatively new member state of the European Union, has an in- terest to find a niche in foreign policy. The importance of specialization of Croatian foreign policy is emphasized by current trends in the world, and by the need to distinguish itself in the international community. Ecological issues and the protection of the sea and rivers, the preservation of the marine – so-called blue economy – and terrestrial environment, as well as organic far- ming, are the areas in which Croatia needs to find its niche in foreign policy. Consequently, it is extremely important that Croatia’s foreign policy plays an active role in promoting ecological issues in both the European Union and in the whole Mediterranean region. The foreign policy of specialization in the field of ecology is supported by Croatian recognition in the world for its na- tural beauty and for it being one of the most ecologically preserved countries in Europe. Key words: Croatian foreign policy, niche, European Union, Mediterranean, ecological issues, environmental and water governance. Introduction This paper discusses the importance of finding a niche in Croatia’s foreign policy due to Croatia’s membership in the European Union. The essay argues that ecological issues – the protection of the sea and rivers, the preservation of the marine, so-called blue economy,1 terrestrial environment and organic farming – are the areas in which Croatia needs to find a niche in foreign policy, that is, it must specialize in one parti- * Sanja Bach is a PhD candidate at the Faculty of Political Science in Zagreb, International Relations programme.

A contemporary pathway towards an authentic constitutional order Constitucionalismo Sul-Asiático? Um caminho contemporâneo rumo a uma autêntica ordem constitucional Pasquale Viola1 Charles University (CUNI/Czech Republic) [email protected] Resumo Estudos de direito constitucional têm se concentrado predominantemente em experiências jurídicas que abrangem apenas parte do fenômeno do constitucionalismo, apesar de um crescente interesse nos sistemas jurídicos asiáticos, já não considerados “irmãs mais jovens” ou meras “cópias de carbono” de Lei ocidental. Este ensaio introduz a configuração federal, conforme previsto pela Constituição indiana, enfatizando alguns aspectos relevantes da Constituição indiana que parecem necessários para entender a organização territorial do poder, ou seja, o sistema de governo e do judiciário. A terceira parte trata da principal história política que influenciou o sistema jurídico nepalês e sua evolução contemporânea. A conclusão explica por que o constitucionalismo sul-asiático e seus vibrantes sistemas jurídicos oferecem, agora, instrumentos necessários para a construção da teoria jurídica geral y para gestão de conflitos sociais.

  • Appointment of Judges and Their Independence

    Appointment of Judges and Their Independence

    SPOTLIGHT ON PROCESS OF SELECTION AND APPOINTMENT OF JUDGES IN NEPAL INTRODUCTION Courts in Nepal can be broadly classified in to two categories: 1. Regular Courts as provided in the constitution and 2. Special Courts as provided in the special legislations enacted by Parliament. The selection, appointment and promotion policy guidelines for the judges of regular courts are broadly mentioned in the Interim Constitution 2063 (hereinafter called constitution) itself. The laws such as Judicial Council Act 2047 B.S. and Judicial Council (procedure) Regulation 2056 B.S. further elaborate and strengthen the constitutional policies on judicial appointments. In contrast to the selection, appointment and promotion of the judges in regular courts, the parent legislation of the Special Courts and Tribunals provide its own selection and appointment policy for judges of the special courts. The review of the special legislations establishing special courts reveal that the approach of the government and the Parliament has been to bypass the regular courts in special disputes and establish executive as the deciding authority in appointing process. The regular courts are very important institutions for dispute settlement and enforcement of the rule of law in Nepal. They consist of three tier courts, namely, District Court, Appellate Court and Supreme Court. Along with these regular courts, there exist Military Court, Special Court, Labor Court, Administrative Court, Debt Recovery Tribunal and Revenue Tribunal as special courts. Level of Judges Appointing Authority Pool District Judges Judicial Council Qualified Gazetted Officers from Judicial Service (Interim constitution has made a provision for recruitment of district judges from the members of the bar through open competition exam.
