  • Special Forces' Wear of Non-Standard Uniforms*
    Special Forces’ Wear of Non-Standard Uniforms* W. Hays Parks** In February 2002, newspapers in the United States and United Kingdom published complaints by some nongovernmental organizations (“NGOs”) about US and other Coalition special operations forces operating in Afghanistan in “civilian clothing.”1 The reports sparked debate within the NGO community and among military judge advocates about the legality of such actions.2 At the US Special Operations Command (“USSOCOM”) annual Legal Conference, May 13–17, 2002, the judge advocate debate became intense. While some attendees raised questions of “illegality” and the right or obligation of special operations forces to refuse an “illegal order” to wear “civilian clothing,” others urged caution.3 The discussion was unclassified, and many in the room were not * Copyright © 2003 W.

  • 1 KRISTENSEN, Thorkil, Danish Politician, Third Secretary-General of the Organization for European Economic Cooperation (OEEC) 1
    1 KRISTENSEN, Thorkil, Danish politician, third Secretary-General of the Organization for European Economic Cooperation (OEEC) 1960-1961 and first Secretary-General of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) 1961-1969, was born 9 October 1899 in Fløjstrup, close to Vejle, Denmark, and passed away 26 June 1989 in Birkerød, Denmark. He was the son of Niels Kristensen, farmer, and Anne Kirstine Thorkilsen, farmer. On 17 July 1931 he married Ellen Christine Nielsen, teacher. They had one daughter and one son. Source: OECD Paris Sound recordings: http://lccn.loc.gov/92788675 Kristensen was born the second of three children in a farming family in rural Jutland in Denmark and went to school in Veijle and Odense. While his family was quite well off in his early childhood, his parents were forced to sell the farm in 1907 and lost much money due to the inflation of the 1920s. His parents had close ties to the liberal-conservative party Venstre (literally: Left, in the sense of Liberal), the traditional Danish farmers’ party. Kristensen became a member of Venstre’s youth organization in 1918. For several years he worked as a bookkeeper, but, unlike his parents, he decided to continue his education at the age of 21, for which he first needed to successfully complete his secondary school exam. With the exam achieved in 1922, he went on to obtain a degree in Political Science and Economics at the University of Copenhagen in 1927. He then taught at a business school in Aarhus, but due to the continuation of childhood hearing problems he had to give up his desired occupation.

Det fremgår således meget tydeligt af straffeloven, at det er forbudt at forhåne fremmede nationer eller stater eller deres flag eller andre anerkendte nationale symboler. Derimod er der i dag intet strafferetligt forbud og ingen sanktion mod forhånelse af Danmark, Dannebrog eller danske nationalitetsmærker. Så sent som i januar 2010 brændte cirka 3.000 fortrinsvis palæstinensiske demonstranter Dannebrog af. Og under en demonstration den 6. juli 2005 uden for den amerikanske ambassade foretog en gruppe maskerede autonome demonstranter afbrænding af amerikanske og danske flag samt afbrænding af en dukke, der forestillede den amerikanske præsident.

Taxonomy of Minority Governments LISA LA FORNARA INTRODUCTION A minority government in its most basic form is a government in which the party holding the most parliamentary seats still has fewer than half the seats in parliament and therefore cannot pass legislation or advance policy without support from unaffiliated parties.1 Because seats in minority parliaments are more evenly distributed amongst multiple parties, opposition parties have greater opportunity to block legislation. A minority government must therefore negotiate with external parties and adjust its policies to garner the majority of votes required to advance its initiatives.2 This paper serves as a taxonomy of minority governments in recent history and proceeds in three parts.
