High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Although public order is not the TSG's only role, it is certainly their most visible and well-known. Like most Police Support Unit vehicles, TSG vans are equipped with mesh window shields and officers are equipped with acrylic glass riot shields, visored 'NATO' helmets, shin and elbow guards, along with fireproof coveralls when required. This level of protection allows them to deal with many violent situations, including riots, football violence and suspects armed with a variety of weapons. TSG officers are trained to a higher standard of operational readiness in their public order role than most other Police Support Units outside London; TSG training is refreshed every five weeks as a matter...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Territories of the United States are one type of political division of the United States, administered by the U.S. government but not any part of a U.S. state. These territories were created to govern newly acquired land while the borders of the United States were still evolving. Territories can be classified by whether they are incorporated (part of the United States proper) and whether they have an organized government (through an Organic Act or constitution passed by the U.S. Congress). The organized incorporated territories of the United States existed from 1789 to 1959, through which 31 territories applied for and achieved statehood. The U.S. had no unincorporated territories (also called...

One of the most challenging responsibilities confronted by the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights since its creation over 40 years ago has been supervising compliance with human rights protections in member states of the Organization of American States that have faced terrorist threats. In fulfilling this responsibility, the Commission has emphasized in no uncertain terms that ensuring fundamental human rights in these situations does not contradict the obligation of member states to protect their populations from terrorist violence. To the contrary, the very purpose of anti-terrorist initiatives is to preserve the fundamental rights and democratic institutions that terrorism seeks to undermine and destroy. We brought this book on...

Now, more than ever and more so in the years to come water in general and fresh water in particular is a very scarce resource, whose supply fails to match the demands of the growing population of the various countries in the world. The legal regimes that govern the complex relationships between the stakeholders seems either to be inadequate, general or difficult to apply in specific circumstances of international Trans-boundary Rivers. Nile is one of the largest trans-boundary rivers in the world. The Nile basin is trapped by the absence of sound rules and principles on the use, management and development of its resources. The basin is also characterized by the presence of a Zero–Sum game. One of the major problems in the Nile basin...

A continuous study of the African system on human and peoples' rights is necessary, particularly in light of the fact that the continent is in desperate need of well established and effective regional human rights enforcement mechanisms. At the moment, the regional human rights system is stuck between prospects and pitfalls because of the gap that exists between the promise of human rights and their actual realisation. By all means, this trend needs to be reversed. The main objective and purpose of this book therefore is to underscore the challenges besetting the effective enforcement of international human rights law in Africa and the prospects and promises of an effective regional human rights system. The book is yet another attempt to...

Regional Fisheries Management Organizations are mandated to manage and conserve the living resources of the ocean. In this undertaking, their efforts have not been entirely successful. One of the reasons for this failure revolves around the conflicting interests between coastal states, and distant water fishing states, flag states. At the heart of this conflict is the reluctance of flag states to exercise enforcement measures against fishing vessels flying their flag on the high seas, thereby undermining the conservation efforts. The recent international instruments make it quite clear that jurisdiction over fishing vessels on the high seas is no longer exclusively a matter for the flag state. They create competing jurisdictions on the...

Subsidiarity as a legal and political principle of European law was introduced by the Maastricht Treaty in 1992. Since that time it has caused heated discussion about its relevancy and importance in the constitutional order of the European Union. Subsidiarity is a concept signifying that decisions should be made as closely as possible to the citizens. Study will focus on the main problems about the delimitation of spheres of subsidiarity application and its task in defining the level of exercising the power. In addition, as subsidiarity is included in the body of EC Treaty, the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice covers the justiciability of the principle. Study presents several cases where the Court developed the approach...

Despite the recent emphasis in the UN system on determining and emphasising the rights of non- citizens, children born without effective citizenship rarely have the same life prospects as citizen children. This paper explores the implications for the children of non-citizens of the limitations that have developed in international law on States' sovereignty in the area of citizenship. It concludes that, although States still retain the right to determine how their citizenship is transmitted, certain international human rights law treaties and recent jurisprudence limit States' discretion in this area, prohibiting direct and indirect discrimination and prohibiting the creation of statelessness.

This treatise takes issue with the jurisdictions of the arbitral tribunals on sport of the republic of Cameroon and that of Geneva, in Lausanne Switzerland. It seeks to highlight the competences, scopes of these tribunals, the issues of recognition and setting aside of arbitral awards. It also examines, the roles of ordinary law courts, sport tribunals and state authorities in settling disputes arising out of sport.The nerve wracking question is, which of these institutions has the locus standi to here sport claims? Following our findings, National sport federations have competence to settle sport claims, by virtue of that country's affiliation to the world football governing body.(FIFA) Disputes emanating from National football clubs go...

Trafficking in children, commonly referred to as modern-day slavery, violates the fundamental rights of children, including the right to family- or parental care; he right to be protected from maltreatment, neglect abuse or degradation; and to be protected from exploitative labour practices. Internationally, human trafficking has become the third-largest profit-making criminal enterprise after drugs and weapon trading, generating an estimated seven billion US dollars annually. It is estimated that about 12 300 000 people are trafficked worldwide annually and 1 200 000 of these are children. This book aims to analyse international and national legal measures currently in place to address the issue of child trafficking in South Africa;...

This book deals with the isolation regime of Abdullah Ocalan, who was arrested in 1999 and since then has been imprisoned as a sole inmate in the High Security Prison of Imrali in Turkey. The aim is to investigate the detention conditions imposed on the detainee and to find out about the allegations of human rights violations in this case of isolation. The principle of the prohibition of torture, laid down in Art.3 ECHR, serves as the basis for this research and will be analyzed, thereby clarifying the scope of protection. On the momentous occasion of the sudden end of the isolation regime in November 2009, this work aims at imparting a comprehensive knowledge about the development of the isolation regime, the perception of the CPT...

The International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) has experienced a steadily growing case docket over the last decade. This rise in the number of cases submitted to ICSID for arbitration has resulted in both procedural inefficiencies and inconsistent decisions concerning similar factual and legal issues. In many other areas of law, consolidation is used to mitigate these concerns, however, the ICSID system at present has no mechanism for consolidating claims. This paper addresses the question of whether consolidation would be appropriate for the ICSID framework. In doing so, it considers the motivations behind consolidation and their application to the ICSID system, and the ways in which ICSID could introduce...

According to Raphael Lemkin Genocide can be described as the deliberate extermination of a racial, religious or ethnic group. Genocide is distinguishable from all other crimes by the motivation behind it to eliminate the enemy group and that makes it more cruel and different from other International crimes i.e (Mass Murder, Crime against Humanity and war crimes). Therefore, the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide prohibits all the actions, which can be taken to minimize the enemy group. For example, rape would not normally be considered as Genocide but if it has been promoted in a civilian population area with the intention to prevent normal reproduction, this would amount to a crime of Genocide....

The end of the past decade meant a new beginning to the European Union. The signature of the Treaty of Lisbon, on the 13th of December 2007, put indeed an end to the crisis that the European Union had been experiencing since the failure of the European Constitution on 2006. However, there was a change that passed almost unnoticed but that could have an important consequence for the future of the Union: the removal of the reference to "a system ensuring that competition is not distorted in the internal market", which appeared in the old article 3 (g) of the European Community Treaty, and its subsequent replacement by a protocol. Which consequence will have this removal on the current European competition policy? Does it open a new era for...

The exploration and development of natural resources of sovereign states is often carried out by multinational oil companies or in most cases in conjunction with the host state. At the start of the exploration period, it may be impracticable to relocate the indigenous peoples living in communities where explorations are carried out. However, these people live to witness different negative impacts as a result of the activities and operations of the companies. This has heralded a difficult relationship between several indigenous peoples and multinational oil corporations in different countries. This book, therefore, uses a case study of two selected indigenous peoples in both Nigeria and Peru to provide new ways of applying corporate...

Constitutional litigation on school finance equity has raged for decades with little clear understanding of its achievements. The role of the courts has been complex, and they have enjoyed mixed success in affecting school finance reform. Careful examination of court rulings and legislative responses, education revenue and expenditures, and the political, economic, and social context of reform in Missouri and Kansas, states with similar economic and political geographies and contrasting court experiences, shed light on the reasons for such different experiences. Multiple variables were analyzed to attempt to explain these different reform results, including the language and procedures of the courts themselves, the political culture of...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recognizes the use of biofuels as alternative energies as a possibility to provide large reductions of GHG emissions. However, according to the United Nations, biofuels could only serve as an instrument to mitigate the climate change problem and enhance energy security if its production is held under careful strategies and appropriate regulations, expressed thus by the use of certificate schemes. The European Union under its new proposal for a directive on the promotion of the use of renewable energy from renewable sources proposed a sustainability certificate for biofuels. Due to the fact that all 27 EU-Members as well the European Communities form part of the World Trade...
