    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(5)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Marx, Engels, Lenin, and the Right of Peoples to Self-Determination in International
    Marx, Engels, Lenin, and the Right of Peoples to Self-Determination in International Law Bill Bowring Introduction The right of peoples to self-determination is a continuing scandal at the heart of post-Second World War international law. Prior to the Second World War, collective self-determination was a revolutionary principle deployed by Marx, Engels and Lenin, and was enshrined as such in the first constitutions of Soviet Russia and the Soviet Union.1 With the establishment of the United Nations in 1945, self-determination found expression in that organization’s founding constitutional instrument, the UN Charter including among its four ‘purposes’ a provision that spoke of the need ‘[t]o develop friendly relations among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other appropriate measures to strengthen universal peace’.2 In 1945 self-determination was therefore a ‘principle’, but not a ‘right’ under international law. Nevertheless, as a result of the hard-fought ‘battle for international law’ in the context of decolonisation,3 the legal right of peoples to self-determination was enshrined in the two 1966 human rights covenants, both of which are legally binding multilateral treaties ratified by most of the 193 current members 1 Bill Bowring “The First Soviet Constitutions, Self-Determination and the Rights to Secession” (2019) September, SCRSS Digest, 8–10, at http://www.scrss.org.uk/Documents/SCRSSDigest_Autumn2019_Supplement.pdf 2 Art. 1(2), United Nations, Charter of the United Nations, 24 October 1945, 1 UNTS XVI 3 Bill Bowring ‘The Soviets and the Right to Self-Determination of the Colonized: Contradictions of Soviet Diplomacy and Foreign Policy in the Era of Decolonization’ in Jochen von Bernstorff and Philipp Dann (eds), The Battle for International Law: South-North Perspectives on the Decolonization Era (OUP 2019) 404.

  • A Timeline of Anglo-Portuguese Relations (From the 12Th Century to Date)
    A Timeline of Anglo-Portuguese relations (from the 12th Century to date) With grateful thanks to Dr. Paulo Lowndes Marques O.B.E. (1941-2010), who produced this research in the last year of his life. He was a longstanding Chairman of The British Historical Society of Portugal for 25 years. English Crusaders who had embarked at Dartmouth on their way to what was later known as the 2nd Crusade, were persuaded by the Bishop of Oporto to help the young 1147 Portuguese King D. Afonso Henriques in the conquest of Lisbon from the Moors. The only extensive account of the siege and conquest is a letter by an English priest, Fr. Osbern. The first bishop of Lisbon was Gilbert of Hastings. The Basilica of Mártires in the Chiado area of Lisbon is dedicated to the English Crusaders who fell during the siege. The 1147 English Sarum rite for the liturgy of the Mass was introduced, which continued until 1536. Gilbert of Hastings died in 1166. He was buried in the Cathedral, but his tomb is now lost. English Crusaders joined in the siege of Silves and fought 1189 "with the utmost ferocity". 1217 English Crusaders helped with the conquest of Alcácer do Sal. 15 The Treaty of Tagilde, signed near Braga, between D. 1372 Fernando of Portugal and Edward III, regarding the latter’s son, John of Gaunt, ambitions to become King of Castille. A Treaty between Portugal and England was signed in St. Paul’s Cathedral by D. Fernando, last of the Burgundy dynasty, King of Portugal, and Edward III, King of England.

É defendi- do que as práticas coloniais nos dois países se intersectam no que respeita a algumas noções legais de equidade no âmbito dos dois impérios coloniais. No entanto, estas não se viriam a traduzir em visões similares sobre a relação entre a metrópo- le e o espaço colonial. No caso português a descolonização foi um evento rápido e traumático, enquanto no Reino Unido este processo foi-se desenrolando progressivamente ao longo dos tempos. Inicialmente o estatuto de cidadania das populações das colónias configurou-se de forma oposta no Reino Unido (regime liberal) e em Portugal (regime exclusivista). Contudo, no período pós-colonial, a evolução do regime de cidadania foi marcado por uma visão mais inclusiva no caso português e por uma política mais restritiva no caso britânico. A reinvenção de um mundo culturalmente lusófono tornou-se um importante discurso em Portugal, privilegiando assim os emigrantes das ex-colónias. Presentemente, no Reino Unido tais considerações são pouco significativas num contexto em que ius sanguinis ga- nhou particular relevância na atribuição da nacionalidade.
