The content is derived from statutes, Executive Orders and Directives, national policy, DoD Directives and Instructions, joint publications, service regulations, field manuals, as well as lessons learned by judge advocates and other practitioners throughout Federal and State government. This edition includes substantial revisions. It incorporates new guidance set forth in Department of Defense Directive 3025.18 (Defense Support of Civil Authorities), Department of Defense Instruction 3025.21 (Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies), numerous new National Planning Framework documents, and many other recently updated publications. It provides amplifying information on wildfire response, emergency mutual assistance compacts, the role of the National Guard and Army units in domestic response, and provides valuable lessons learned from major disasters such as Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria. The Handbook is designed to serve as a working reference and training tool for judge advocates; however, it is not a substitute for independent research. With the exception of footnoted doctrinal material, the information contained in this Handbook is not doctrine. Judge advocates advising in this area of the law should monitor developments in domestic operations closely as the landscape continues to evolve. Further, the information and examples provided in this Handbook are advisory only. The term “State” is frequently used throughout this Handbook, and collectively refers to the 50 States, Guam, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and the District of Columbia. The same is often referred to as “the 54 States and territories.” Finally, the content and opinions expressed in this Handbook do not represent the official position of the U.S. Army or the other services, the National Guard Bureau, the Office of The Judge Advocate General, The Judge Advocate General’s Legal Center and School, or any other government agency. This Handbook is also available in electronic format from the CLAMO website at https://www.jagcnet.army.mil/, and the “Military Legal Resources” section of the Library of Congress website at https://www.loc.gov/rr/frd/Military_Law/military-legal-resources-home.html. CLAMO also posts lessons learned, after action reports, and other products in the National Security Law Document Library on JAGCNET at https://www.jagcnet2.army.mil/IODocLib (CAC access required), and the National Security Law Milbook site at https://www.milsuite.mil/book/groups/international-and-operational-law (CAC access required). The continued vitality of this publication depends upon feedback from the field.

  • WINTER 2013 / SPRING 2014 CUPP in Third Decade CUPP 2013 NEWSLETTER ISSUE 2
    George Washington has departed p. 58 Importance of CUPP p. 59 In Ukraine, the ideological battle has no timetable. It seems, however, that the clock is working against the youth and NGOs in their efforts to forestall the imposition of a managed democracy. If the ruling clan succeeds in imposing a managed democracy, it will set back for decades the development in Ukraine of a normal civil society governed by the rule of law. And if Ukraine becomes like Russia or if it merges into Russia, Europe and the West will not have a reliable or stable partner in the region for much of the 21st century. It is not beyond a possibility that eventually a war will have to be fought in Europe in order to return to a stable and just society in the eastern half of the continent.

  • 312-11 Harper Years 2014
    The Harper Years Lecture 11: POL 312Y Canadian Foreign Policy Copyright: Professor John Kirton, University of Toronto All rights reserved November 25, 2014 JFK mk Introduction On January 23, 2006, Canadians elected Stephen Harper’s Conservatives with a minority government of 124 seats, compared to 103 for Paul Martin’s Liberals, 51 for the separatist Bloc Québécois, and 29 for the New Democratic Party (NDP). The 46-year-old Torontonian-turned-Albertan was formally sworn in as Canada’s 22nd prime minister on February 6. A debate immediately arose about what Canadian foreign policy would now be (Kirton 2006, 2007). After Harper won a second, stronger minority government of 143 seats on October 14, 2008 and then a majority government of 166 seats on May 8, 2011, the debate continued, among six major competing schools of thought. The Debate The first school pointed, in authentic peripheral dependent (PD) fashion, to “restrained Americanism.” It predicted that Harper would seek a cooperative relationship with the U.S., limited only by Harper’s fragile minority position and absence of ideological partners in Parliament. Janice Stein forecast “greater affinity with U.S. positions internationally,” including a pro-American tilt on relations with the Middle East and the United Nations (McCarthy 2006). Joseph Jockel, Christopher Sands, David Biette, and Dwight Mason thought the tone and ease of the Canada-U.S. relationship would improve, as Harper made good on his defence promises. But they also felt that the Shamrock Summit–like closeness of Brian Mulroney and Ronald Reagan would be avoided, given Harper’s minority position at home (Koring 2006).

  • G7 Leaders Summit 2020: Background Paper on Themes of G7 Leaders Summits (2012-2019)
    G7 Leaders Summit 2020: Background Paper on Themes of G7 Leaders Summits (2012-2019) G7 Commitments at a Glance Gender equality and women’s empowerment are at the heart of the universal 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals, specifically in relation to women’s economic empowerment (WEE). This WEE agenda has evolved through further engagement with governments and other key stakeholders, such as during the 2017 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, the Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment, the Group of 20 (G20) and the Group of 7 (G7). The G7 has articulated its WEE position in the G7 Common Principles on Women’s Entrepreneurship (2015 Elmau); G7 Guiding Principles for Building the Capacity of Women and Girls (Ise-Shima 2016); the G7 Roadmap for a Gender-Responsive Economic Environment (Taormina 2017); the Charlevoix G7 Summit Communique (Charlevoix 2018) and Paris Declaration on Gender Equality (Biarritz 2019). The G7 recognizes that women are key drivers of innovation, growth and jobs, and that the private sector plays a vital role in creating an environment in which women can more meaningfully participate in the economy. The group has set concrete targets, such as reducing the gender gap in labour force participation rates by 25% by 2025, and to increase spending on Technical Education and Vocational Training (TVET) by a third by 2030. In the last four years, the G7 countries have committed to: invest in women’s skills development and TVET; facilitate women's labour force participation, career advancement, and work life balance; stimulate women’s entrepreneurship and the growth and sustainability of women-owned businesses; and accelerate the adoption and implementation of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs).

    480 Notes and Queries. NOTES AND QUERIES. Hlotca. MEMORIAL OF WILLIAM GOVETT AND OTHEB OFFICERS OF THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT TO CONGRESS, AUGUST, 1779. To THE HONOURABLE THE CONGREFS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA The Memorial of the Subscribers, serving in different Departments of the Treasury. Humbly Sheweth, That your Memorialists have attentively considered your late Ordnance for establishing a Board of Treasury and feel themselves called upon by every Principle of Love to their Country, to express to your honour- able Body their Sentiments on that part of it, which subjects the Officers of the Treasury to annual Elections— Without barely observing that the Officers of Finance in all the Com- mercial Countries of Europe, are appointed during good behaviour, Your Memorialists conceive there are powerful Reasons to induce your Honourable Body to copy after their example— Your Memorialists think themselves authorized to say, that an ac- curate knowledge of the Liquidation of such intricate Accounts as are often brought to the Treasury for Settlement, and the essential Forms of doing Business can only be acquired by long practice and close at- tention. It is extremely natural therefore to infer, that annual elections will put the important business of your Treasury into the hands of Persons whose want of experience may render them incapable of con- ducting it with Propriety. Hence Confusion may arise and derangements take place in our Finances, which may sap the Foundation of our Liberties. Your Memorialists are persuaded it wou'd be unsafe for these States to depend entirely on the virtue and wisdom of a future Congress to prevent Such dangerous Consequences.
