  • Revisiting Bi-Regional Relations: the EU-Latin American Dialogue and Diversification of Interregional Cooperation
    Bi-regional Relations EU-LAC EU-LAC Foundation Revisiting bi-regional relations: The EU-Latin American dialogue and diversification of interregional cooperation Coordinated by Wolfgang Haider and Isabel Clemente Batalla his collective book presents the papers submitted to discussion at the panel “The Euro-Latin American Tdialogue and diversification of interregional coopera- tion” during the 9th Congress of CEISAL that took place in Bucharest in July 2019. The focus was on discussion of the evolution, state-of-the art and paradigmatic changes in EU-Latin American (and, to some extent, Carib- bean) relations, and the identification of pathways for strengthening these collaboration efforts in the frame- work of the Sustainable Development Goals. The contri- butions approach these topics of EU-Latin American dialogue and cooperation from different perspectives, including the overarching bi-regional, multilateral framework, traditional bi-lateral cooperation, as well as alternative, sub-regional or even local (city-driven) networks. Many current bi-regional processes are analysed and reflected throughout the book. For instance, the role of the social dimension in EU-Latin American and Carib- bean cooperation and dialogue; general perspectives of EU-LAC cooperation and its evolution during a period of 30 years; the two Scandinavian countries, Sweden, an EU member state, and Norway, a member of the European Free Trade Area (EFTA), and their respec- tive approaches to cooperation with Latin America; the contribution of the EUROsociAL and Socieux programmes as examples of EU-initiated develop- ment cooperation with Latin American and Caribbean countries; the role of subnational units in interregional cooperation; and some perspectives on Euro-Latin American dialogue and international cooperation about the necessary changes to jointly achieve the SDGs.

  • Masterscriptie Staats- En Bestuursrecht
    Masterscriptie Staats- en Bestuursrecht Het vrije mandaat: feit of fictie? Beperkingen aan fractieafsplitsingen getoetst aan het vrije mandaat van Tweede Kamerleden Auteur A. (Arie) Vonk Noordegraaf LL.B. Studentnummer 3675386 Begeleider prof. mr. R. Nehmelman Datum 22 maart 2017 Sol Iustitiae Illustra Nos - Zon der Gerechtigheid, verlicht ons 2 Voorwoord Maartensdijk, 22 maart 2017 Met het afronden van mijn masterscriptie Staats- en Bestuursrecht komt er einde aan mijn studietijd aan de Universiteit Utrecht. Ik heb de afgelopen jaren enorm veel geleerd en ook genoten van de vele juridische vraagstukken die besproken werden. Na het afronden van de bachelor Rechtsgeleerdheid met een scriptie over de vrijheid van onderwijs was de master Staats- en Bestuursrecht een voor de hand liggende keuze. De master sloot goed aan op mijn (politieke) interesses. Hoewel ik zowel het staatsrecht als het bestuursrecht bestudeerde, ligt mijn hart toch echt bij het staatsrecht. Deze scriptie is daar een bewijs van. Het is mooi om juist in dit voorjaar mijn masterscriptie af te ronden. Het jaar 2017 is in het licht van het onderwerp van deze masterscriptie namelijk een bijzonder jaar. Het is dit jaar precies honderd jaar geleden dat in 1917 het stelsel van evenredige vertegenwoordiging werd ingevoerd. Het jaar 1917 is een keerpunt in de parlementaire geschiedenis van Nederland. Enerzijds is dit het begin van de hedendaagse parlementaire democratie. Anderzijds is de invoering van het stelsel van evenredige vertegenwoordiging ook een bedreiging voor het vrije en persoonlijke mandaat van Tweede Kamerleden. De partijmacht wordt groter terwijl individuele Tweede Kamerleden ook in 2017 worden geacht zonder last te stemmen.

But the sides have not yet reached an agreement on the final wording of the new laws.The heads of the opposition parties in the Knesset announced in response that they are demanding that the advancement of the legislation be delayed. In a letter to the Knesset speaker and chairman of Kahol Lavan, Benny Gantz, the heads of the Meretz, Yesh Atid-Telem and Joint List parties said, “The advancement of the bills, before the High Court of Justice has ruled on the matter of agreement between the parties, could well create a situation in which the Knesset legislated a law whose basis is undermined in a decision of the High Court of Justice.

  • Aging Well: Shaping Age Identities in the Literature of the British Welfare State
    AGING WELL: SHAPING AGE IDENTITIES IN THE LITERATURE OF THE BRITISH WELFARE STATE BY KATHERINE SKWARCZEK DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Jim Hansen, Chair Assistant Professor Andrew Gaedtke Professor Vicki Mahaffey Professor Robert Markley ABSTRACT This dissertation traces a literary genealogy of old age and argues that British literature offers both a systematic challenge to the regulatory models of the life course solidified during the twentieth century and emerging from the welfare state, as well as a necessary caveat concerning recent processes that individualize, multiply, but also potentially dismantle social provisions for the elderly in late life. By examining such topics as retirement, intergenerational relations, and narrative ethics, I create a literary-historical archive that resists easy internalization of socio- economic, cultural, and medical-scientific practices and discourses—such as the “alzheimerization” of old age—that seek to manage the “problem” of an aging population, while likewise sharing with the broader field of aging studies the goal of disassociating old age from damaging equations with decline and loss. Beginning with the postwar decades and extending to early twenty-first century texts, this study examines the creation of aging subjects who must negotiate both individual agency and collective social responsibility. I show how the anxious depictions of labor and late life in the mid-century plays of Samuel Beckett and Harold Pinter still inform current debates about retirement, pensions, and social welfare provisions.

  • Advancing Access to Justice Under the Trump Administration Rebecca Buckwalter-Poza Abstract
    THE YALE LAW JOURNAL FORUM S EPTEMBER 9, 2017 New Sheriff, Old Problems: Advancing Access to Justice Under the Trump Administration Rebecca Buckwalter-Poza abstract. There is a crisis in access to justice in the United States. The justice gap—the gap between people’s legal needs and the legal services available—is wide and growing. Recent data from the Legal Services Corporation and the University of Chicago confirm that this gap pri- marily stems from a lack of information about legal rights, remedies, and resources. This infor- mation gap can be remedied by increasing public education on these topics and by improving the means of seeking legal assistance. I argue that information-centered advocacy may be the most effective means of closing the justice gap. Such advocacy may also be the most resource efficient, a critical consideration in a landscape where proponents of access to justice lack the political sup- port to win increased federal funding for civil legal aid. However, the success of this approach will ultimately depend on a second, more challenging feature of the current American govern- ment: fundamental threats to the justice system currently emanating from the executive. From lead paint in a rented apartment to custody arrangements, many peo- ple in the United States have legitimate civil claims. However, few can secure legal help. The justice gap—the gap between people’s civil legal needs and the resources available to meet those needs—is unacceptably high and growing. According to a 2017 study by the Legal Services Corporation, eighty-six percent of the civil legal problems reported by low-income Americans in the past year received insufficient or no legal help.1 Underlying this access to justice crisis is an information gap.
