Rights of Young People and the European Social Charter
2021
The European Social Charter (alongside the case-law of the European Committee of Social Rights) forms the most striking binding legal source for young people’s social rights, providing a framework for synergies with both the European Union and the Council of Europe’s other instruments and mechanisms in this area. In the current times of pandemic, the most important thing is preventing the COVID-19 crisis (which has economic, political and social dimensions) from becoming a crisis of values among young people. From this perspective, on the one hand, the paper focuses on access of young people to education, labour market and housing. On the other hand, it proposes measures aimed at raising aw…
Enhancing Bank Transparency: A Re-assessment
2001
Transparency regulation aims at reducing financial fragility by strengthening market discipline. There are however two elementary properties of banking that may render such regulation inefficient at best and detrimental at worst. First, an extensive financial safety net may eliminate the disciplinary effect of transparency regulation. Second, achieving transparency is costly for banks, as it dilutes their charter values, and hence it also reduces their private costs of risk-taking. We consider both the direct costs of complying with disclosure requirements and the indirect transparency costs stemming from imperfect property rights governing information and specify the conditions under which…
Measuring health promotion in a sports club setting: a modified Delphi study
2019
Abstract Background The settings-based approach has become an increasing focus in health promotion since the World Health Organization’s 1986 Ottawa Charter. Schools and cities have implemented this approach, but development within sports clubs is limited. Thus, an internationally validated measurement of health promotion within this setting is lacking. Methods A modified Delphi study was completed to develop an international evaluation tool grounded in the settings-based approach. Expert panelists from academia, sports and health sectors were invited to participate in 3 online rounds. Items were generated or selected based on 3 prior Delphi-based studies and 2 nationally validated scales. …
Quantitative analysis of the plurality in news programs of Nou at the last stage
2016
Durante los cerca de siete meses en los que Rosa Vidal y su nuevo equipo dirigieron RTVV, se produjo un cambio de tendencia en los informativos. Unos espacios de programación —vitales para una televisión pública— que habían perdido totalmente el prestigio y la audiencia después de 24 años de historia, la mayor parte de ellos bajo el poder político del Partido Popular. Esa última época convulsa coincidió en el tiempo con la aplicación de un expediente de regulación de empleo que el Tribunal Superior de Justicia de la Comunitat Valenciana anularía, provocando la decisión de acabar con las emisiones de la televisión autonómica. También por entonces se puso en marcha el Mandato-marco y el Contr…
Archives and Library at Cîteaux Abbey: Medieval Writings (12th c.– Early 16th c.)
2019
This thesis project deals with the organization of scriptural productions, archival and library practices of Cîteaux Abbey. We consider the multiple forms of these pratices: creation and increase of archival holdings (Abbey archives and cistercian Order documents), filing, preservation of archives, relations with users. This research takes into account the aspects of document materiality and archaeology, studying cartulary and register processes with their bindings, inventory methods of archives and manuscripts, document appraisal and disposal, classification or restoration, shelf-marks and other graphic characters.
DEVELOPMENT OF PRIMARY SCHOOLS IN THE CONTEXT OF DUAL CAREER
2020
The concept of dual careers is based on the principles of the Olympic Charter with harmony of the mind and body at its core. Contemporary education systems are goal-oriented and neglect their responsibility to aid in the personal development of students. The role of sports is not sufficiently emphasized in the educational process. In order to draw attention to these issues, the author has initiated a dual career development project ‘Sports class’ with the financial support of Cēsis Municipality. The project launched on September 1, 2019. The study population was grade 7a of Cēsis Secondary School enrolled in extra physical education classes. To attain the main aim of dual career of combinin…
Boundaries between law and religion: considerations regarding the use of curses in the documents of Norman Sicily
2022
The word ‘boundary’ does not only indicate a physical division between different worlds. The border often represents a point of contact. This concept of a ‘boundary’ is particularly critical in the field of legal history because often the plurality of iura contributes not only to the fusion of different cultures but also to the creation of new ones. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relevance and the meaning of expressions of Anathema and curse it’s possible to find in some Latin documents that date back to the Norman period of Sicily. This period is pivotal for the consolidation of the secular and spiritual power of the Church and the use of curses by the lay power highlights…

Magna Carta and the Charter of the European Union
2016
Peter Gjortler explains that the EU Charter was originally introduced as a non-binding re-statement of rights – already acknowledged or interpreted in the EU – with the Nice Treaty of 2001. It was supposed to be a binding document as part of the European Constitution but the latter was rejected notably by France via a referendum in 2005. It was then proposed as a legally binding instrument with the revised Lisbon Treaty. He develops a systematic comparative approach between Magna Carta and the provisions of the Charter of the European Union, notably:
