Financial Contributions

The budget allows the Budget Committee to estimate the revenue of the Court and the expenses necessary to guarantee the functioning of the Court (Art 15a Draft Budgetary and Financial Regulation). According to Art 29 of the Draft Budgetary and Financial Regulation, the adoption of the budget by the Budget Committee creates the obligation of the CMSs to pay the respective sums to the UPC and empowers the Presidium and the Registrar to make the financial commitments necessary for the purposes of the Court. The costs to be paid by the CMSs include the costs of running the training centre and the mediation and arbitration centre (Art 15a Draft Budgetary and Financial Regulation). The budget further serves as the basis for calculating the financial contributions due from the CMSs to set up the Court (Art 37(2) UPCA). Moreover, the budget will serve as the basis for calculating the contributions by the CMS during the first seven years of operation when the Court will not be able to cover all of its costs from its revenue (Arts 36 and 37(3) and (4) UPCA). The budget will also set out the financial obligations of the Presidium (Art 16 Draft Budgetary and Financial Regulation).

Helen Frowe’s Defensive Killing is in many respects an excellent book, full of arguments that are original, interesting, important, and often persuasive. In other respects, the book is deeply unsettling, as it forcefully challenges the belief that killing ordinary civilians in armed conflict is a paradigmatic moral wrong. In particular, Frowe argues that civilians who make political, material, strategic, or financial contributions to an unjust war may lose their moral protection from intentional and collateral harm. On this point, Frowe’s arguments are original, interesting, and important but, thankfully, not persuasive.

Significance Violence has increased significantly since President Pierre Nkurunziza was inaugurated in August. The country is under growing international spotlight as fears are growing that the crisis is adopting an ethnic dimension. However, there are more important factors shaping the chances for escalation. Impacts Nkurunziza is unlikely to take on the East African Community (EAC) chairmanship as scheduled at end-November, disrupting regional protocol. The EAC's budget faces strain as Burundi fails to clear its financial contributions and donors consider pulling some funding. Refugee flows from Burundi will rise, straining existing tensions with neighbouring states.

Le Temple de la Restauration, analyse d’une dissidence néopentecôtiste au Cap-Vert

Every day more believers leave the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God, covered with shame and debts. The “theology of prosperity” is not infallible and the most fervent faithful can end up broke without God having, as promised, rewarded their generous donations. For these disillusioned believers, there is nothing left. There is no social security or institution to turn to for compensation. Their financial contributions, which were supposed to be “spontaneous”, have long since left Brazil to feed the accounts of the Mother-Church or to fund other opaque investments. In the micro-world of Cape Verde, these numerous deserters quickly make the tour of the islands and find no shortage of listeners. It is thus not surprising that this “demand” saw the development, three years ago, of a Church that specifically aims to “restore” the faith of these so-called “victims” of the Neo-Pentecostal and, by extension, Evangelical system: the “Restoration Temple”. To this end, the American-based Church bases its discourse on similarity and opposition: the cult is identical to the Universal Church in its emotionalism and theatricality and its striving towards “liberation”, but it is built on a virulent criticism of its theology of prosperity and its exclusiveness.

AbstractThere are two compelling issues involved in US – Countervailing Duty Investigation of DRAMS. First, there is the question of whether creditors were ‘entrusted or directed’ to make financial contributions to Hynix, a large South Korean DRAM producer. This was the main topic addressed by the Appellate Body (AB) and is the focus of the François–Palmeter paper. Second, there is there is the question of injury assessment and nonattribution. Because the US did not appeal the Panel's decision, this aspect of the WTO dispute was not considered by the AB.
