1 Abstract: the Ratification of the Maastricht Treaty Caused Significant
Abstract: The ratification of the Maastricht Treaty caused significant ratification problems for a series of national governments. The product of a new intergovernmental conference, namely the Amsterdam Treaty, has caused fewer problems, as the successful national ratifications have demonstrated. Employing the two-level concept of international bargains, we provide a thorough analysis of these successful ratifications. Drawing on datasets covering the positions of the negotiating national governments and the national political parties we highlight the differences in the Amsterdam ratification procedures in all fifteen European Union members states. This analysis allows us to characterize the varying ratification difficulties in each state from a comparative perspective. Moreover, the empirical analysis shows that member states excluded half of the Amsterdam bargaining issues to secure a smooth ratification. Issue subtraction can be explained by the extent to which the negotiators were constrained by domestics interests, since member states with higher domestic ratification constraints performed better in eliminating uncomfortable issues at Intergovernmental Conferences. 1 Simon Hug, Department of Government ; University of Texas at Austin ; Burdine 564 ; Austin TX 78712-1087; USA; Fax: ++ 1 512 471 1067; Phone: ++ 1 512 232 7273; email: [email protected] Thomas König, Department of Politics and Management; University of Konstanz; Universitätsstrasse 10; D-78457 Konstanz; Fax: ++ 49 (0) 7531 88-4103; Phone: ++ (0) 7531 88-2611; email: [email protected]. 2 (First version: August 2, 1999, this version: December 4, 2000) Number of words: 13086 3 An earlier version of this paper was prepared for presentation at the Annual meeting of the American Political Science Association, Atlanta, September 2-5, 1999.

Legalisation of Foreign Documents for Use in the Netherlands
Legalisation of foreign documents for use in the Netherlands Knowledge Centre for International Staff Foreign nationals are required to bring an original legalised birth certificate for their registration at their municipality of residence. Married couples should also provide their legalised marriage certificate. These certificates must be provided in English, Dutch, German or French. If not in one of these languages, the documents need to be translated by a sworn translator. Both the originals and the translated version(s) need to be brought to the Netherlands. What is legalisation? A document issued in your home country which needs to be used in another country must be 'authenticated' or 'legalised' before it is valid and recognized in that other country (e.g. the Netherlands). The proof of legalisation is usually a stamp on the certificate. The legalisation process involves checking the origin of the relevant document. Legalisation is official confirmation that the signature of the civil servant that has signed a document, or the seal or stamp on the document, is legitimate. This process involves a legalisation by: 1. The country’s own authorities (usually the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country where the documents were issued) and; 2. By the Dutch mission in the country for use in the Netherlands. Contact the Dutch mission in your home country for further details. Check the rules for the country where the document originated The rules on legalisation vary across countries because some countries are parties to legalisation conventions. Legalisation conventions contain agreements on how countries recognise each other’s official documents. Always check the rules that apply to the country where the document originated.

The Treaty of Amsterdam's Changes to the Common Foreign and Security Policy Chapter and an Overview of the Opening Enlargement Process
Fordham International Law Journal Volume 22, Issue 6 1998 Article 12 The Treaty of Amsterdam’s Changes to the Common Foreign and Security Policy Chapter and an Overview of the Opening Enlargement Process Giorgio Maganza∗ ∗ Copyright c 1998 by the authors. Fordham International Law Journal is produced by The Berke- ley Electronic Press (bepress). http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/ilj The Treaty of Amsterdam’s Changes to the Common Foreign and Security Policy Chapter and an Overview of the Opening Enlargement Process Giorgio Maganza Abstract The European Union (“Union” or “EU”) is an important actor in the international arena. The Union behaves and acts as a political entity towards the outside world and it is perceived as such. That is certainly the case for international economic relations, where the European Community (“EC” or “Community”) has played a signiﬁcant role as a major partner in multilateral negotiations for several years now. It is more frequently the case with respect to foreign policy matters, as a result of the choice made by the signatories to the Maastricht Treaty (“Treaty on European Union” or “TEU”) in which the signatories decided to give the Union the means to speak with one voice in world affairs and to conduct effective external action that would not be limited to economic and trade relations. Against this background, the purpose of this Essay is twofold: ﬁrst, to provide a summary account of the main changes to the common foreign and security policy (“CFSP”) chapter resulting from the Treaty of Amsterdam (or “Treaty”), and second, to sketch a very general view of the opening enlargement process.
