Political and Social Changes
Environmental Politics, 2015Co-Authors: Corrado PoliAbstract:The chapter introduces a critique of the Political strategy of radical environmentalists. It is introduced by a review of radical literature in environmental policy, the goal of which is to argue how it can be misleading for an effective Political action. By applying the four stages approach, the chapter proposes an alternative definition of the conservative and the progressive. Eventually, the intellectual terms of a Political Alliance are sketched that overcome the traditional Political loyalty when dealing with the environmental question.

Politická ekonomie, 2019Co-Authors: Jan Hanousek, Jiří TrešlAbstract:This paper examines payout characteristics of firms in a cultural and Political Alliance of four Central European nations, the Visegrad Group.

Our results indicate that smoothing behaviour diminishes among firms with majority ownership and that the total payout characteristics behave according to existing theories on passive ownership behaviour and agency costs.

les traites d Alliance avec les infideles l infâme precedent du traite de jaffa du 18 fevrier 1229 entre frederic ii et le sultan d egypte al kamil treaties of Alliance with the unfaithful the infamous precedent of the jaffa treaty of february 18 122
2011Co-Authors: Giovanni DistefanoAbstract:Cette contribution se penche sur l'une des vexatae quaestiones de la science juridique en droit international, a savoir la validite des traites d'Alliance militaire ou politique conclus par les princes chretiens avec des souverains musulmans et diriges contre d'autres membres de la Respublica Christiana. A travers ce prisme, nous avons tente d'etudier l'existence d'un ordre juridique international qui comprend la Respublica Christiana mais qui ne se confond pas avec elle. In nuce, cette derniere n'a ete que l'une des composantes d'une odre juridique international pluraliste. Il s'en suit que la plupart du temps ces traites ont ete consideres, en depit des frequentes protestations du Pape, comme valables d'apres le droit des gens de l'epoque en question. Il en allait de meme pour les traites conclus par les emirs musulmans avec des princes chretiens et diriges contre les coreligionnaires des premiers. Dans ce contexte aussi, la notion de "Oumma", semblable a maints egards a celle de la Respublica Christiana, n'affectait pas la validite du traite d'Alliance militaire ou politique. Enfin, nous avons choisi, parmi ces differents traites "impies", celui, peut-etre moins celebre, conclu entre l'Empereur du Saint Empire Romain, Frederic II, avec le Sultan d'Egypte Al-Malik, par lequel le premier obtint, sans effusions de sang, la Ville de Jerusalem. Pour moultes raisons, le contexte historique de ce traite d'Alliance nous parut plus significatif que celui, plus fameux, signe trois siecles plus tard par Francois 1er, roi de France, avec Soliman le Magnifique, aussi connu le nom de Capitulations (1534).This paper deals with a classic topic which has recurrently agitated international jurisprudence, i.e. the validity of treaty of military and/or Political Alliance concluded by Christian rulers with Islam principalities directed against other members of the so-called Respublica Christiana. Through this prism, we have endeavored to study the existence of an international legal order which comprises the latter yet it does not coincide with it. In a nutshell, the community isn't but one of the sub-communities which formed a pluralistic international legal order. This entails that most of the time these treaties were considered, despite frequent protests by the Pope (for instance), as valid in public international law. The same applies likewise to treaties concluded by Islam rulers with Christian ones targeting fellow Muslim rulers. In this context, too, the concept of "Umma", similar in many respect to that of "Respublica Christiana" does not prejudice the validity of the treaty in point. Finally, we have chosen, among these treaties, a less famous example of "impious treaty", that is to say that concluded by the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Frederick II, with the Sultan of Egypt, Al-Malik, by which the former received, inter alia, the city of Jerusalem, without a bloodshed. For manifold reasons, the historical context of this treaty of Alliance seemed to us to be more pregnant and eloquent than that, more famous, signed three centuries later by Francis I, King of France, and Soleman the Magnificent, aka the first Capitulations (1534).

The Ethics of Political Alliance
British Journal of Political Science, 2018Co-Authors: Jonathan WhiteAbstract:Usually pictured in relations of opposition, Political parties are sometimes inclined to make Alliances. This article examines the ethical questions such arrangements give rise to. It considers first the formal characteristics of an Alliance as a distinctive form of association, moving on to examine what reasons for Alliance are good reasons. Intrinsic arguments that invoke epistemic or democratic criteria, and instrumental arguments that cite areas of shared programme or imperfect institutions, are weighed in turn, with the latter judged to be more consistent with the partisan ethos. The final section examines the normative standards to which Alliances should be held once formed.
