UNICEFs website describes the CRC as "an international treaty that recognizes the human rights of children, defined as persons up to the age of 18 years." It further states, "The convention establishes in international law that States Parties must ensure that all children - without discrimination in any form - benefit from special protection measures and assistance; have access to services such as education and health care; can develop their personalities, abilities and talents to the fullest potential; grow up in an environment of happiness, love and understanding; and are informed about and participate in achieving their rights in an accessible and active manner. She also explained how the CRC can be used to end these problems. "It helps because the government, when they have ratifie...

Trial court did not err in granting summary judgment in favor of financial institution as there was no issue of fact that the financial institution acted pursuant to a valid power of attorney when it processed a loan request made by the holder of the power of attorney. The financial institution did not have a duty to verify the principal's ratification of the agent's actions.
WASHINGTON - Senate Democrats deflected an initiative by Republicans on Saturday that would have forced U.S. and Russian negotiators to reopen an arms treaty reducing stockpiles of nuclear warheads. But the 59-37 vote against an amendment by Sen. John McCain, R- Ariz., indicated the difficulty President Barack Obama is having in trying to win Senate ratification of the treaty before a new, more Republican Congress assumes power in January.
This article will demonstrate that virtually all elements of Indian affairs can be traced to the decision of the US to recognize Indian tribes as political entities and to make Indian law and policy based on this political status. Part I briefly describes the problem: Indian law is often assumed to be race law. Part II articulates the original understanding of the Indian affairs power through evidence contained in the historical record contemporaneous to the ratification of the Constitution. The Part III describes the ongoing understanding of American Indian law and policy, traced back to Johnson v. M'Intosh, the Fourteenth Amendment and the treatment of Indian people under both the political and racial classifications. This article concludes by arguing that the superior method of under...
New Delhi also took issue with a complex entry-into-force (EIF) provision that would make the treaty contingent on India's deposit of its instrument of ratification, along with no less than 43 other states that then possessed nuclear power or research reactors.1 This provision, which was widely perceived at home as an affront to India's strategic autonomy, bore the fingerprints of China, France, Russia, and the United Kingdom, which wished to prolong taking the treaty's bitter medicine as long as possible by forcing others to take it as well. Just to make sure that Pakistan would reject U.S. offers and to prevent India from being singled out for international pressure, Advani issued a thinly veiled public threat to the effect that now that New Delhi possessed the bomb, its neighbor sho...

Iraq's constitutional convention has stopped the clock for three days, giving itself a new deadline of tomorrow for approval of the draft constitution finished minutes before midnight Baghdad time on Monday. The hope is that this old-fashioned bureaucratic maneuver will buy time to persuade Iraq's Sunni leaders to back the document. How that is going to happen is hard to see, and without the acceptance of Iraq's sizable Sunni minority, which has enough voting power to block ratification in October, the constitutional process will be in deep trouble; lack of cooperation among the three ethnic and religious groups will certainly sow the seeds of future instability. Now, there have been several hotly disputed issues. The most widely covered here in the United States has been the question o...

WASHINGTON -- There was a time when the United States seemed to bully Latin Americans into opening their doors to U.S. capitalism. The United Fruit Co., in the eyes of many Latin Americans, was the symbol of that era. What a colossal irony that, at the beginning of the 21st century, one of Latin America's problems is persuading American politicians to ratify free trade agreements that would boost U.S. exports to the region. The simplest way of achieving free trade is to let people buy and sell. Because we live in a twisted world, we need to sign wordy FTAs that officials negotiate in the same way warring nations design peace treaties. And then we need to persuade the politicians to ratify them. For months, Peru, Colombia and Panama have been pleading with the U.S. Congress to approve th...
