Malta come metafora /library/oar/handle/123456789/123868 Title: Il declino della neutralita nell'attuale fase del costituzionalismo europeo. Malta come metafora Authors: Dionigi, Michele Abstract: Various neutral states have existed in Europe for a long time, but European integration seems to put the significance of neutrality to a hard test. The changes which have occurred in the heart of the European Union have not only put into question the general concept of neutrality, but they have also, perhaps, led to its decline. All these issues are subjected to close examination in the book under review, which adopts an original perspective on them: namely that with the advent of the European Union, political relationships are become more complex and states are undergoing deeper integration. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z Shake hands with the devil : the failure of humanity in Rwanda /library/oar/handle/123456789/123848 Title: Shake hands with the devil : the failure of humanity in Rwanda Authors: Abdul-Rahman, Ma'n H Abstract: "De profondus clamo ad te domine" (Out of the depths, I cry to you O Lord) were the riveting words that overshadowed Lieutenant General Romeo Dallaire's prayers throughout his 100 days as Canadian Force Commander of UNAMIR (United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda) during the Rwandan genocide. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z Why is freedom from torture an absolute right? - A multidisciplinary analysis /library/oar/handle/123456789/123739 Title: Why is freedom from torture an absolute right? - A multidisciplinary analysis Authors: Soler, Christopher Abstract: Legal discussions of human rights do not usually address fundamental questions such as why they exist and, in a very few remote cases where they are absolute, why they are so. For example, it is often taken for granted that the prohibition of torture under national, regional and international human rights laws is absolute and admits of no exception. This article will assess the justification for the claim that freedom from torture is an absolute right. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z Equality or difference?
