Scenarios/options for Liechtenstein’s integration strategy ............... 97 PREFACE uropean integration continues to be ‘in flux’. Since the early 1990s, the dynamics have been almost breathtaking: three treaty revisions Ein the EU and no fewer than three enlargements, increasing its size from 12 to 27 members. In 1994, the European Economic Area (EEA) became operational, quietly extending the single market (except agriculture and fisheries) to Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. In addition, the euro was introduced and the eurozone enlarged from its initial 11 to 17 countries. The single market deepened steadily. There was and continues to be some turmoil in the domestic politics of some member states due to the financial and economic crisis and concerns about the deepening and the scope of the EU acquis. The dynamics are clearly not petering out: the crisis has prompted a rapid deepening of EMU, mostly for the eurozone but to some extent also for the EU as a whole, new EU members are likely to accede, a few EU countries want to enter the eurozone and market integration with a host of European countries (e.g. Andorra, San Marino, Monaco, Switzerland, Turkey and some European neighbourhood countries) may well be intensified and different approaches (including enlargement of the EEA) are under discussion. Last but not least, in the UK a major debate led by Prime Minister David Cameron has been unleashed about the terms of EU membership, with an option of an ‘in or out’ referendum in 2017. Given the overwhelming prominence of the EU, often mistakenly labelled ‘Europe’, it might have gone unnoticed that a new element in the European integration debate

  • LIECHTENSTEIN the 341 © Lonely Planet Publications Planet Lonely © Malbun Triesenberg Schloss Vaduz Trail LANGUAGE: GERMAN LANGUAGE: „ Fürstensteig
    © Lonely Planet Publications 341 Liechtenstein If Liechtenstein didn’t exist, someone would have invented it. A tiny mountain principality governed by an iron-willed monarch in the heart of 21st-century Europe, it certainly has novelty value. Only 25km long by 12km wide (at its broadest point) – just larger than Man- hattan – Liechtenstein doesn’t have an international airport, and access from Switzerland is by local bus. However, the country is a rich banking state and, we are told, the world’s largest exporter of false teeth. Liechtensteiners sing German lyrics to the tune of God Save the Queen in their national anthem and they sure hope the Lord preserves their royals. Head of state Prince Hans Adam II and his son, Crown Prince Alois, have constitutional powers unmatched in modern Europe but most locals accept this situation gladly, as their monarchs’ business nous and, perhaps also, tourist appeal, help keep this landlocked sliver of a micro-nation extremely prosperous. Most come to Liechtenstein just to say they’ve been, and tour buses disgorge day- trippers in search of souvenir passport stamps. If you’re going to make the effort to come this way, however, it’s pointless not to venture further, even briefly. With friendly locals and magnificent views, the place comes into its own away from soulless Vaduz. In fact, the more you read about Fürstentum Liechtenstein (FL) the easier it is to see it as the model for Ruritania – the mythical kingdom conjured up in fiction as diverse as The Prisoner of Zenda and Evelyn Waugh’s Vile Bodies.

    ©Copyright 2017 Yu Sasaki Precocious Enough to Rationalize Culture? Explaining the Success and Failure of Nation-building in Europe, 1400–2000 Yu Sasaki A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Anthony Gill, Chair Edgar Kiser Victor Menaldo Steven Pfaff Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Political Science University of Washington Abstract Precocious Enough to Rationalize Culture? Explaining the Success and Failure of Nation-building in Europe, 1400–2000 Yu Sasaki Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Anthony Gill Political Science Why do some ethnic groups consolidate their cultural practices earlier than others? Extant schol- arship in ethnicity, nations, and state-building hypothesizes that the state is the most important determinant. In my dissertation, I argue that it is not the only channel and there are other fac- tors that matter. In three standalone essays, I investigate the role of (1) geography, (2) technology, and (3) public goods provision at the ethnic-group level. I provide a simple conceptual frame- work of how each of these determinants affects cultural consolidation for ethnic groups. I argue that geographical conditions and technology adoption can have a positive impact on ethnic groups’ ability to develop unique cultural attributes without an independent state. Although they may be politically incorporated by stronger groups in the modern period, they still demand self-rule or standardize their vernacular. I also argue that, in contrast with the expectation from the political economy research on ethnicity, cultural consolidation does not always yield public goods provision at the ethnic-group level.

  • The United Nations' Political Aversion to the European Microstates
    UN-WELCOME: The United Nations’ Political Aversion to the European Microstates -- A Thesis -- Submitted to the University of Michigan, in partial fulfillment for the degree of HONORS BACHELOR OF ARTS Department Of Political Science Stephen R. Snyder MARCH 2010 “Elephants… hate the mouse worst of living creatures, and if they see one merely touch the fodder placed in their stall they refuse it with disgust.” -Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia, 77 AD Acknowledgments Though only one name can appear on the author’s line, there are many people whose support and help made this thesis possible and without whom, I would be nowhere. First, I must thank my family. As a child, my mother and father would try to stump me with a difficult math and geography question before tucking me into bed each night (and a few times they succeeded!). Thank you for giving birth to my fascination in all things international. Without you, none of this would have been possible. Second, I must thank a set of distinguished professors. Professor Mika LaVaque-Manty, thank you for giving me a chance to prove myself, even though I was a sophomore and studying abroad did not fit with the traditional path of thesis writers; thank you again for encouraging us all to think outside the box. My adviser, Professor Jenna Bednar, thank you for your enthusiastic interest in my thesis and having the vision to see what needed to be accentuated to pull a strong thesis out from the weeds. Professor Andrei Markovits, thank you for your commitment to your students’ work; I still believe in those words of the Moroccan scholar and will always appreciate your frank advice.

Please provide examples of domestic case law invoking the Covenant, if any. 1. Due to the small size of the country and its population, domestic case law is, in general, not as diverse and dense as in larger states. At the same time, Liechtenstein courts tend to use Austrian and Swiss case law as a reference for their judgments, especially in cases where the relevant legal provision is based on Swiss or Austrian law.

  • Elsa, the Princess Von and Zu Liechtenstein a Symbol of Old and New European Elites OPEN ACCESS Merging in the 20Th Century1
    Elsa, the Princess von and zu Liechtenstein A Symbol of Old and New European Elites OPEN ACCESS Merging in the 20th Century1 Václav Horčička The Liechtensteins are an old European aristocratic family that has been present throughout our lands as of the mid-13th century. The family supported the throne and Catholicism starting with the conversion of brothers Karl, Maxmilian and Gundakar from the Evangelic to the Catholic faith at the turn of the 17th century; and continued to support them up until the end of the Hapsburg monarchy. Interestingly however, it was this family that took a major step towards accepting the “second society”, which had been rejected up that point in history, into the highest aristocratic circles. The marriage between Franz I and Elisabeth, also known by the name Elsa von Gutmann, was a symbol of this shift. Elsa von Gutmann was born in 1875 and came from one of the most influential Jewish entrepreneurial families of the old monarchy. The oldest mention of the family comes from Kolín nad Labem, but Elsa’s great-grandfather Isaak moved his business to Lipník nad Bečvou (Leipnik), where he married well and took the family name Gutmann. The family traded several commodities including lambswool and grains. Elsa’s father Wilhelm Isaak Wolf, Knight of Gutmann established a coal business instead, which was closely connected to the activities of Emperor Ferdinand’s Northern Railway. Elsa was Wilhelm’s child from his second marriage to Ida (maiden name Wodianer). He was almost 50 years old when Elsa was born. The Gutmanns (Wilhelm asked his brother David to join him in his business and together they founded the Gebrüder Gutmann company in 1856) were initially in competition in coal mining and coke production (Gutmann controlled almost one half) with the Rothchilds but the two families started to work together in mid-1860s.
