Dutch litigation before the Great Council of Mechlin : An additional calendar of the 'Appeals from Holland'

2009

AbstractM. Oosterbosch's additional calendar of documents belonging to the series 'Appeals from Holland' (Brussels, General Archives of the Realm, Collection Great Council of Mechlin) refers to hitherto unknown documents which may encourage fresh thematic research and case-studies on conflicts and litigation which originated mostly from Holland and Zeeland (from the 1460s until the 1580s), and to a lesser extent from Utrecht and (also during later periods) from Gelderland.

Normative Imperatives and Communal Influences : The Consistory's Role in Proposing Lutheran Clergy in the 18th-Century Russian Border Area

2017

Merit was strongly emphasized in the Privileges of the Clergy (in 1723) and legislative reforms, as well as in the formalization of election practices in connection with clerical appointments in the Kingdom of Sweden in the early 18th century. According to existing research, this resulted in a deepening difference between the standpoints of the laity and the ecclesiastical authorities. However, in studying the appointments of clergy in the Lutheran parishes in Russia’s western border area in the mid- and late 18th century, this article argues that the boundary between the opinions of the diocesan board (in this case the Consistory of Fredrikshamn) and those of the parishioners with regard t…

Smuggling umanitario e scriminanti

2019

In questo articolo mi propongo di sottoporre a vaglio critico, da prospettiva penalistica, la retorica dello smuggling umanitario, utilizzata nei mesi scorsi da una parte dell’opinione pubblica per criminalizzare l’operato delle Ong attive nel Mar Mediterraneo nel salvataggio di migranti in distress. Più in particolare, cercherò di capire se regga, da un punto di vista giuridico-penale, la qualificazione di questo operato come « favoreggiamento dell’immigrazione clandestina » rilevante ai sensi dell’art. 12 Tuimm, o se non si diano invece le condizioni per considerarlo scriminato, o comunque penalmente lecito. Al termine del lavoro, indicherò quelle che, a mio avviso, costituiscono le ragio…

Design of energy efficient MAC protocols in wireless sensor networks

2014

Masteroppgave i Informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi IKT590 Universitetet i Agder 2014 Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been used in variety of applications such as in military and defense, process control industry and health monitoring applications. In WSNs, sensors are in small size with limited battery capacity and idle listening is a crucial problem which consumes more energy. Duty cycling (DC) is a technique which is used in many medium access control (MAC) protocols to reduce idle listening. In this thesis, we propose an asynchronous DC protocol, namely energy balancing asynchronous cooperative transmission medium access control (EB-ACT-MAC), which balances the remaining energ…

Desarrolo, cultura e identidad en América Latina

2008

The author understands culture as more than a result of economic development; he argues that development, itself, is both a fact and a cultural product, based on his wide range concept of culture. According to the text, approaches willing to reduce definitions of development to its economic, social, or any other restrict aspect, only misunderstand the real concept and engender serious mistakes on Government’s action. Moreover, the text states that far from population explosion and absence of resources, problems of social injustice, poverty, social exclusion, disrespect of human rights and aggressions on the environment are basically consequences of the absence of universal ethical values, w…

HISTONE DEACETYLASE (HDAC) INHIBITION MODULATES INTRACELLULAR DEOXYNUCLEOTIDES (DNTP) POOLS AND POTENTIATES THE ANTITUMOR EFFECTS OF THE RIBONUCLEOTI…

2009

HDAC inhibitors are a new class of antitumor agents that were reported to enhance the cytotoxic effects of a number of classical anticancer drugs through multiple mechanisms. In particular, they are capable of modulating the expression of a series of key cellular genes leading to significant antiproliferative and apoptotic effects. However, which of the possible drug combinations would be the most effective and clinically useful is still to be determined. We treated the HL60 and NB4 promyelocitic leukaemia cells with a combination of the RR inhibitor 3’-Me-Ado and several hydroxamic acid–derived HDAC inhibitors, including the two recently synthesized molecules, MC1864 and MC1879, and the re…

EECDC-MAC: An energy efficient cooperative duty cycle MAC protocol

2012

In this paper, we propose a novel energy efficient cooperative duty cycle MAC (EECDC-MAC) protocol in which sensor nodes use fixed wakeup rendezvous scheduling to exchange messages and a cooperative transmission mechanism to avoid overuse of nodes with lower residual energy. Numerical results demonstrate that the EECDC-MAC protocol can prolong the entire network longevity efficiently in comparison with an existing cooperative duty cycle MAC protocol, CDC-MAC, and another popular duty cycle MAC protocol, prediction wakeup MAC (PW-MAC) protocol.

Sukupuolistunut väkivalta Vares- ja Wallander-elokuvissa

2017

Sukupuolistunut väkivalta Vares- ja Wallander-elokuvissaArtikkelissa tarkastellaan sukupuolistuneen väkivallan representaatioita ruotsalaisissa Wallander-elokuvissa (2005–2006) ja suomalaisissa Vares-elokuvissa (2004–2015). Huomion kohteena on, miten sukupuoli ja seksuaalisuus näyttäytyvät näiden pohjoismaisten rikoselokuvien kerronnassa osana väkivaltaan liitettyjä merkityksiä, selityksiä ja asenteita. Väkivallan kulttuurisia merkityksiä analysoidaan feministisen media- ja kulttuurintutkimuksen sekä feministisen väkivaltatutkimuksen näkökulmasta. Analyysi kohdistuu siihen, mitä ja millaista väkivaltaa Vareksissa ja Wallandereissa esitetään, mitä selityksiä väkivallalle tarjoutuu sekä milla…

Il dovere di soccorso in mare e il diritto di obbedire al diritto (internazionale) del comandante della nave privata

2019

Shipmasters are commonly considered the addressees of an international legal duty to rescue at sea. This article describes the evolution of international law in this field, from the first maritime conventions of the 1910's to the IMO Safety Committee's resolutions of the 2010's. It then argues that behind the duty to rescue there is a hidden right of the shipmaster. This right has a moral pedigree and is functional to the full compliance of the duty itself. It can be enforced in the national legal order against any State (or private entity) that tries to obstruct the shipmaster's activities of assistance or to penalize her or him for the assistance given. National judges enforce this right …
