  • The South Pacific Judicial Conference Was Formulated in September 1970 by Chief Justice Crothers of the High Court of American Samoa
    279 PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR INDEPENDENT JUDICIARIES AND CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENTS Jon M Van Dyke* Since 1972, Chief Justices from Pacific island communities have met biennially at the Pacific Judicial Conference. These meetings have played a significant part in reinforcing the commitment to independent judiciaries and constitutional governments in the Pacific. This article describes the issues addressed by the meetings as well as the accomplishments of the Conference. It also highlights issues that still require attention. Les chefs de Cours du Pacifique se sont rencontrés de manière régulière depuis 1972 dans le cadre des Conférences Judiciaires du Pacifique. Ces rencontres ont joué un rôle important dans le renforcement de l’indépendance du pouvoir judiciaire et ont assuré la promotion de l’instauration de gouvernements démocratiques dans le Pacifique Sud. Cet article dresse le bilan des problématiques traitées lors de ces réunions et des résultats obtenus. I INTRODUCTION The first South Pacific Judicial Conference took place in Samoa in 1972, as a result of the ingenuity and perseverance of Donald C Crothers (Chief Justice of the High Court of American Samoa from 1968 to 1972), Barrie C Spring (Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Western Samoa from 1966 to 1972), and Richard H Chambers (Judge of the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit from 1959 to 1994). Since then, the chief justices of the Pacific Island communities have met about every two years, and these meetings have played an important role in * Professor of Law, University of Hawaii.

  • Annotated Supplement to the Commander's Handbook On
    ANNOTATED SUPPLEMENT TO THE COMMANDER’S HANDBOOK ON THE LAW OF NAVAL OPERATIONS NEWPORT, RI 1997 15 NOV 1997 INTRODUCTORY NOTE The Commander’s Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations (NWP 1-14M/MCWP S-2.1/ COMDTPUB P5800.1), formerly NWP 9 (Rev. A)/FMFM l-10, was promulgated to U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Coast Guard activities in October 1995. The Com- mander’s Handbook contains no reference to sources of authority for statements of relevant law. This approach was deliberately taken for ease of reading by its intended audience-the operational commander and his staff. This Annotated Supplement to the Handbook has been prepared by the Oceans Law and Policy Department, Center for Naval Warfare Studies, Naval War College to support the academic and research programs within the College. Although prepared with the assistance of cognizant offices of the General Counsel of the Department of Defense, the Judge Advocate General of the Navy, The Judge Advocate General of the Army, The Judge Advocate General of the Air Force, the Staff Judge Advo- cate to the Commandant of the Marine Corps, the Chief Counsel of the Coast Guard, the Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Unified Combatant Commands, the annotations in this Annotated Supplement are not to be construed as representing official policy or positions of the Department of the Navy or the U.S. Governrnent. The text of the Commander’s Handbook is set forth verbatim. Annotations appear as footnotes numbered consecutively within each Chapter. Supplementary Annexes, Figures and Tables are prefixed by the letter “A” and incorporated into each Chapter.

  • An Analysis of the Impacts of Targeted Sanctions on Fiji's Non-Government
    AID , SANCTIONS AND CIVIL SOCIETY : An analysis of the impacts of targeted sanctions on Fiji’s non-government organisations by Morgan Franciska Hanks A 120-point thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington, as partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Development Studies 2011 ABSTRACT In dealing with contested regimes, international aid donors must decide whether to suspend or continue to provide development assistance to a regime considered illegitimate. Since the 1990s a general consensus has existed that conventional sanctions are largely ineffective and essentially violate human rights. Responding to this realisation, targeted or ‘smart’ sanctions emerged with the aim of minimising the impacts of sanctions on civilians, while still targeting the ruling elite. This thesis investigates smart sanctions utilised in a Pacific Island country: Fiji. Following the coups of 1987, 2000 and 2006 three of Fiji’s major aid donors, Australia, New Zealand and the European Union, imposed various levels of smart sanctions including targeted travel bans and sanctioning their aid programmes. In particular, the donors focused on redirecting funding through non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in Fiji. Within the sanctions literature a particular gap exists regarding assessment of the impacts on local NGOs. What research does exists has shown that in several cases in Africa, Asia and South America when donors have chosen to channel aid through civil society in response to lagging political reforms, this has at times done more harm than good for local NGOs. Since the imposition of smart sanctions in Fiji there has been no evaluation of how rechanneling aid through NGOs has changed the local development landscape.

  • 36 Windsor YB Access Just 249 the Prospects for Customary Law In
    The Prospects for Customary Law in Transitional Justice: The Case of Fiji* Joanna R. Quinn** The use of customary law shows real promise in addressing the challenges that arise when confronting the legacies of past human rights abuses and atrocities. Unlike typical transitional justice mechanisms like trials, truth commissions, and reparations programs, customary practices are community-based and well-known to the people who use them. Indeed, customary practices could be used in transitional societies in place of “foreign” practices to bring about the same objectives. This paper considers the role that customary law plays in Fiji. It further assesses the prospects for the use of customary, traditional law in situations where transitional justice is called for. Le recours au droit coutumier semble prometteur pour relever les défis qui se posent au moment de confronter l’héritage des violations des droits de la personne et des atrocités commises par le passé. Contrairement aux mécanismes typiques de justice transitionnelle comme les procès, les commissions de la vérité et les programmes de réparation, les pratiques coutumières sont axées sur la communauté et bien connues des personnes qui y ont recours. En effet, les pratiques coutumières pourraient être utilisées dans les sociétés transitionnelles au lieu de pratiques « étrangères » pour réaliser les mêmes objectifs. Dans ce présent, nous nous penchons sur le rôle que joue le droit coutumier à Fidji. Nous y évaluons également la possibilité de recourir au droit coutumier traditionnel dans les situations qui se prêtent à la justice transitionnelle. Transitional justice typically relies on a handful of mechanisms, including trials, truth commissions, and reparations programs, in seeking justice after conflict.1 In many societies, however, these mechanisms have less salience and value than customary practices of justice.

Incorporating Impact of Economic Conditions on Pricing and Launch - Sequence Determination of Commercial Vehicles. Metamorphosis 4(1): 26-38. In any new product development (NPD) process, decisions regarding choice of products to launch, determination of their price and launch sequences are critical. In the context of commercial vehicles, these become more complex, as the prevailing economic conditions also affect the buying decisions of the fleet owners and transport operators. In this paper, we present mathematical models to illustrate how the impact of economic conditions can be incorporated in the above decision making process. Our model, which determines launch sequence as well as price of the products provides useful insight on the impact of boom and recession on prices, and also on cannibalization. Vipul. 2005. Futures and Options Expiration Day Effects: The Indian Evidence. Journal of Futures Markets 25(11): 1045-1065. This study examines the effect of expiration of options and futures on price, volatility and volume of the underlying shares. The values of these variables, one-day prior to expiration, on the day of expiration and one- day subsequent to expiration, are compared with those one week and two weeks before and after the corresponding day using Wilcoxon matched- pairs signed-ranks test. The underlying share prices tend to get marginally depressed a day prior to expiration and strengthen significantly a day after the expiration. The rate of increase of returns on the day after the expiration is abnormally high.

It further assesses the prospects for the use of customary, traditional law in situations where transitional justice is called for.

    ISSN 2070-7010 529 FAO FISHERIES AND AQUACULTURE TECHNICAL PAPER 529 Integrated mariculture A global review Integrated mariculture – A global review global A – mariculture Integrated This technical paper provides a comprehensive review of current integrated mariculture practices around the world in three papers covering temperate zones, tropical zones and one semi enclosed ecosystem, the Mediterranean Sea. Integrated mariculture includes a diverse range of co-culture/farming practices, from integrated multitrophic aquaculture to the more specialized integration of mangrove planting with aquaculture, called aquasilviculture. Modern integrated mariculture systems must be developed in order to assist sustainable expansion of the sector in coastal and marine ecosystems thus responding to the global increase for seafood demand but with a new paradigm of more efficient food production systems. Successful integrated mariculture operations must consider all relevant stakeholders into its development plan, there is also a need to facilitate commercialization and promote effective legislation for the support and inclusion of integrated mariculture through adequate incentives particularly considering the reduction of environmental costs associated to monoculture farming. Bioremediation of fed aquaculture impacts through integrated mariculture is a core benefit but the increase of production, more diverse and secure business and larger profits should not be underestimated as additional advantages.
