INTRODUCTION The virtual institutionalization of military service since World War II, as a normal part of the life of every young American, a fact which shows little sign of change in the near future, has made military law, once the exclusive domain of a handful of specialists in the Judge Advocate General's Corps, a matter of interest to every lawyer in the United States, and an area of special concern to that large growing pool of young lawyers facing active duty or reserve training at home. Within the ambit of this field, a neglected but significant area of inquiry is the legal duty owed to a subordinate by his superiors. Stated from another viewpoint, what pro- tection does a subordinate have against the acts of superiors, and what are the acts which the law protects him against? From time to time in recent years, we can see from the daily press that superior officers have been criticized and even court-martialed for violation of the rights of their subordinates.

  • Irish-Polish Business Directory
    Irish-Polish Business Directory A Word from the Ambassador Trade between Ireland and Poland is flourishing. In recent years, Irish exports to Poland have been growing by approximately 15%, and Polish exports to Ireland have grown in the same period. In 2016, two-way trade was worth an estimated €3.4 billion. More and more Irish companies are realising the many opportunities in this attractive, nearby market. Many are also using Poland as a base to explore opportunities in Central Europe. With Polish people comprising 2-3% of the Irish population, and the large community of Poles who have lived in Ireland and returned home, people-to-people links are strong. And with over 50 flights a week to eleven Polish airports, it’s easier than ever to get to market. Whatever sector you are in, I am confident the Irish-Polish Business Directory will be a useful resource for you. Published for the first time in 2018, it provides an overview of the many businesses and entre- preneurs who make up this vibrant and dynamic relationship. I hope it will contribute to the visibility of the Irish business presence in Poland. I am delighted the Embassy has come together with the Irish Government’s enterprise agencies, Enterprise Ireland and Bord Bia, and the Irish Polish Chamber of Commerce, to publish this direc- tory. Together, we are committed to supporting Irish companies and entrepreneurs and to growing the Irish-Polish business relationship. Gerard Keown 1 Embassy of Ireland Relations between Ireland and Poland are dynamic and excellent. Ireland and Poland work closely as partners in the European Union, share interests in common, and enjoy strong economic, cultural, and people-to-people ties.
