Modeling the natural gas supply chain for sustainable growth policy

2020

Abstract Natural gas has been used globally as a transitional fuel for supporting a green-energy-supply strategy, which has been questioned for the intermittence and lack of reliability of renewables. This paper proposes a System Dynamics model for assessing alternative security of supply policy along the natural gas value chain. The model incorporates demand, transport, production and reserves of natural gas variables according to a systemic perspective. It also includes a module for evaluating the effect of natural gas price on the demand and supply levels, respectively. Alternative supply policies are evaluated under different scenarios. The chosen case-study focuses on the Colombian nat…

Public Policy Design for Climate Change Adaptation: A Dynamic Performance Management Approach to Enhance Resilience

2017

This chapter proposes dynamic performance management (DPM) as a suitable method to identify policies in the context of climate change adaptation. Namely, it focuses on the role it can play to support the analysis of how to enhance resilience of social and economic systems to climate change. While ‘resilience’ is a buzzword in the policymaking world, putting the concept into practice is still undeveloped. In a public administration focused on accountability, intangible outcomes of resilience represent a complication. The chapter discusses the findings and lessons from a case study applying the proposed approach. The results highlight the role of a dynamic performance approach to support stak…

Public policy in families and successions regulations : the case of ?talaq?

2021

According to EU Regulations on transnational families and successions, a foreign rule remains without effect if it is deemed contrary to the so-called public policy (ordre public) of the forum?s legal system. As a consequence, judges have to evaluate whether the application of foreign law is incompatible with fundamental principles of the domestic law, especially whether it would constitute a violation against human rights. An outstanding controversial issue is today represented by Islamic repudiation (talaq): two contrasting Italian judicial decisions of August 2020 may illustrate how difficult it could be to determine what public policy is.

Public policy as grounds for refusal of recognition and enforcement under regulation 2016/1103 and regulation 2016/1104

2021

El orden público es una de las instituciones más conocidas e importantes del Derecho internacional privado. Puede encontrarse como motivo de denegación de reconocimiento y ejecución en varios Reglamentos europeos, entre otros en el Reglamento (UE) 2016/1103 del Consejo, de 24 de junio de 2016, por el que se establece una cooperación reforzada en el ámbito de la competencia, la ley aplicable y el reconocimiento y la ejecución de las resoluciones en materia de regímenes económico matrimoniales, y en el Reglamento (UE) 2016/1104 del Consejo, de 24 de junio de 2016, por el que se establece una cooperación reforzada en el ámbito de la competencia, la ley aplicable y el reconocimiento y la ejecuc…

Law and morals in the application of the public policy exception under the twin regulations 1103 and 1104 of 2016

2021

This paper discusses the interactions between fundamental principles of domestic legal systems and non-legal standards in the application of the public policy Generalklausel within the context of the twin Regulations 1103 and 1104 of 2016. In particular, this paper argues that public policy is composed of legal principles only and that there is no space for extra legal standards when the circulation of foreign deeds, decisions and laws is in discussion. This consideration has two consequences. Firstly, the role of good morals within contemporary private international law is extremely reduc

Libertad de conciencia, integración e inmigración. Lecciones desde el Reino Unido

2020

El presente estudio analiza las principales políticas públicas y la legislación británica en el contexto migratorio, desde la perspectiva del derecho de la población inmigrante a ejercer su derecho a la libertad de pensamiento, conciencia y religión. El interés de conocer el modelo británico reside en que éste se ha caracterizado tradicionalmente por la recepción de potentes flujos migratorios, procedentes principalmente de Europa y de sus antiguas colonias, así como por su dilatada experiencia gestionando una de las diversidades culturales y religiosas más grandes de Europa. Este trabajo es resultado del proyecto PRX19/00641 del Subprograma de Movilidad dentro del Programa Estatal de Promo…

Cancer causes and prevention: a condensed appraisal in Europe in 2008.

2008

The rising cancer burden in Europe, mainly due to a rapidly ageing population, demands a clear and coordinated response from researchers, oncologists and other physicians, public health professionals and policy-makers. Primary and secondary prevention is the front line in the complex battle against cancer in Europe. To formulate the best strategies in this fight, the major determinants of cancer are summarised in the order of their relative importance in Europe, including tobacco smoking, alcohol, diet, physical activity, occupational factors, environmental factors, infectious agents and genetic and hormonal factors. Furthermore, this paper offers explicit recommendations on individual beha…
