Abstract:

The use of Private Military Companies (PMCs) has become an increasingly common feature of contemporary armed conflict. Because of their autonomous contractual status, PMCs have presented governments with problems of accountability on several levels, including violations of international human rights and humanitarian law (IHL) standards. This thesis argues that PMCs should be considered to be non-state actors (NSAs), subject to international law from both an International Relations Theory and a Legal Theory perspective. This conclusion is linked to the issue of whether individual PMC employees

This study examines the strengths and influence of International News Media Coverage in Politics as manifested in the “Arab Spring.” Key variables that shape global news coverage are examined with Western media institutions in particular being the focal point. The analytical agenda or purpose of this research is to examine the relationship between international news media and politics by evaluating news media coverage of protests, demonstrations and uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Syria, in an effort to determine how the Western media has shaped political views on those countries and ot

Abstract:

From the onset of the colonial era, land reform in Solomon Islands has focused on changing customary landholding arrangements so as to improve productivity and stimulate economic growth. Most land in Melanesia remains under customary tenure, which is broadly communal by nature and cannot be alienated without profound social disruption. Customary land, social relations, livelihoods, power structures, knowledge, identity and place are all inter-related in Melanesian life-worlds. This complexity is still poorly understood by those promoting the view th

In the last decades, metal oxides have been widely employed in the field of nanotechnology, thanks to their physicochemical characteristics. In fact, oxidic compounds can be exploited for manifold applications due to their chemical, thermal and mechanical stability, the low-cost, the low- or non-toxicity. Moreover, the possibility to easily obtain metal oxides as nano or nanostructured powders together with their high reactivity, mainly due to the presence of polar hydroxyl groups populating the surface, have always attracted the scientific community interested in the field connected to cataly

Traditionally, customary international law is defined as comprising state practice and opinio juris. However, there is a current trend in legal argument by Third World Approaches to International Law (TWAIL) that challenges these state practices arguably dominated by Western ideologies. Based on these challenges, the purpose of this research is not to discard these trends; rather it interrogates the basic principle of international law that sees only state practice and opinio juris as constituting customary international law.

Drawing upon the feminist frameworks of embodied intersectionality and Critical Race Theory, I aim to develop a greater understanding of the fluid and contingent nature of marginali

Russia started to export hydrocarbons to Western Europe in the middle of the Cold War, and for a long time, despite their ideological differences, Russia was considered to be a reliable energy supplier.

Currently, energy trade is seen as part of national security for both Russia and the European Union (EU). The central question of this study: is how EU-Russia energy relations have become highly securitised? This thesis approaches this problem from the perspective of a

Abstract:

The electricity sector has traditionally been constructed for large scale generation and distribution from the high-voltage to the low-voltage network. Transition is however underway; intermittent power generation has become less expensive and nuclear power plants are set to close down. A key issue is that intermittent power generation is by definition weather dependent, hence it cannot be planned. Smart grid solutions have the possibility to meet variations in electricity supply and demand and make use of output from intermittent renewable energy through a broad range of products and services

Abstract:

In certain contemporary Muslim majority states apostasy and blasphemy are not merely religious sins; they are acts which potentially have legal, or extra-legal, consequences. Although apostasy has not been criminalised in many such states, extrajudicial killings of apostates are carried out by some extremist groups and individuals. Such groups always justify these murders of fellow Muslims and non-Muslims on the grounds of apostasy and blasphemy. The concept and use of takfir (excommunication) is also a serious issue in Muslim majority states. Groups such as Daesh (also known as Islamic State

Energy is required to manufacture a good or create a service and the energy sector is the backbone of every economy. Until recently, governments worldwide have considered the energy sector too cmcial to be left to market forces.

Likewise, international trade in energy has traditionally been synonymous with petroleum trade, which in turn has been effectively regulated by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), outside the reach of the multilateral trading system.
