<p>This paper aims to present the authors’ examination of some aspects of Vietnam’s positive law regarding non-judicial foreclosure. Upon default, a bank as a secured creditor may enforce his security right over the collateral that is understood as foreclosure. Foreclosure includes judicial foreclosure and non-judicial foreclosure. In the way of non-judicial foreclosure, a secured creditor can take possession and dispose the secured property without a court’s involvement. So, it may save the secured creditor time and cost. The law governing the non-judicial foreclosure should not only provide the efficient mechanics of self-help repossession but also protections to a grantor. It should be examined whether Vietnamese law meets this requirement. By this study, some drawbacks and shortages of Vietnamese law in relation to non-judicial foreclosure are exposed and then some recommendations for improvement of positive law of Vietnam governing the exercise of the non-judicial foreclosure are presented. </p>

The main purpose of this thesis is to examine the effect of a clause paramount in bills of lading and charterparties and to clarify how this clause is interpreted by English courts. The primary complexity that arises in the bill of lading context comes from the scope of the incorporated Hague or Hague-Visby Rules, which depends on the different variants of clause paramount, applicable statute and the country of shipment. In the charter party context, a clause paramount has created a great deal of difficulty with the construction of contracts, especially in regard to the significance of the word “paramount” and the extent to which the incorporated articles override other provisions in a charterparty. The thesis is divided into two parts: Part One is focused on the structure and interpretation of the Hague Rules as an international treaty. It examines the purpose of a clause paramount, based on its wording and different scenarios, and deals with contractual interpretation when the Rules are given effect by “force of law” or incorporated purely by contract. Part Two investigates the way how a Clause Paramount, when incorporated in the contract, affects the parties’ rights and obligations. It specifically deals with the fundamental obligation of seaworthiness and the secondary functions of the carrier. It examines the protection of third parties and investigates the interplay of Clause Paramount with the terms of the Inter-Club Agreement.

The course of reading for the examination does no more than touch on the way in which the business of purchasing, or granting loans on, reversions is influenced by legislation. The object of this paper is to peel a second layer off the fruit of reversionary knowledge, rather than to bite too deeply at one point on its circumference. The standard work by Withers, running to 480 pages, gives evidence of the number of layers left undisturbed.Whilst most of the matters mentioned on the following pages fall primarily within the province of the solicitor, the partnership between solicitor and actuary will be more efficient and beneficial to the client if each partner has a rudimentary grasp of the affairs of the other.

Abstract The situation of refugees living in Poland depends not only on legal aspects. A very important role is also played by social factors, which optionally condition and influence the status of foreigners in our country. One of them is undoubtedly the way of presenting the described phenomenon in the media, as well as the attitude of Poles to refugees, and how our country guarantees them protection and enables them to find their place in the new reality. Analysis of the problems of immigrant families in Poland may provide valuable information to research the problem of refugees in a European context.

Normative acts applicable in the Republic of Poland do not lack a multitude of formulations of terms such as: war, state of war or time of war. The lack of legally binding definitions and the inconsistency of the use of identical definitions lead to different, often contradictory interpretations of particular situations, which may have different legal consequences. Only a precise and detailed definition of these concepts, preferably by incorporating them into national or international law, would dispel many doubts and close the way to sometimes contradictory interpretations, which is particularly important for security and defence concepts and issues. Therefore, in this paper the author will present definitions and regulations resulting from Polish legal acts, relating to war, war time and the state of war.

In the previous contribution, Dekker and Myjer maintain that, from the viewpoint of international law, there are at least two problematic issues with regard to NATO's actions in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The first issue concerns the way in which the Security Council has, in a legal sense, shaped its authority over NATO's actions. The second issue is the question of whether NATO is entitled, under its own constitution, to execute such actions. The contribution of Dekker and Myjer was prompted by NATO's air strikes in defence of Sarajevo, which took place in August and September 1995. Their criticism also applies to the current actions that NATO is undertaking in the implementation of the Dayton Agreement, as they later elaborated in the periodical Transaktie. First and foremost, it must be noted that Dekker and Myjer deserve full credit for pointing out these legal aspects of these recent NATO actions. That being said, their two main points of criticism are debatable and, in our opinion, paint a less than consistent picture of the possibilities that the UN and NATO have to offer, in particular the possibilities that may or may not be provided by those organizations' constitutions to flexibly respond to the demands posed at the present time, as well as the room to manoeuvre that is available under the changed international balance of power.
