The Gatt And The Unmaking Of International Environmental Law, Robert Weir Jan 1996

The Gatt And The Unmaking Of International Environmental Law, Robert Weir

Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies

This paper examines the uneasy relationship between the regulation of international trade and international environmental law. In particular, it focuses on two GATT panel decisions that struck down US-imposed trade embargoes on tuna products imported from countries that the US considered killed too many dolphins in their tuna fisheries. The implications of the decisions went far beyond the immediate environmental issue that faced the GATT panels, bringing into question the validity of trade sanctions as a means of enforcing and strengthening existing multilateral environmental agreements. At the same time, however, a critical examination of the American position reveals serious flaws …

Excursion On The Euxine, Theophilus C. Prousis Jan 1996

Excursion On The Euxine, Theophilus C. Prousis

History Faculty Research and Scholarship

Neal Ascherson, a British writer, journalist, and Poland specialist, has performed an admirable task-and done it well-reminding us of the Black Sea's centrality in the destiny of ancient Greeks, Scythians, Sarmatians, Goths, Khazars, Tatars, Slavs, Turks, and a host of other peoples who swept across the Pontic Steppe. In a work that combines travel writing, journalism, scholarly discourse, intellectual probing, and personal pilgrimage, Ascherson evokes places and peoples, discusses contemporary issues and problems, investigates history, culture, and archaeology, and explores the intrinsically difficult matter of sorting out national identities in multi-ethnic societies. Above all, this richly textured work illumines the …

Building Community Commitment For A Region's Future: The Case Of Port Stephens, Australia, Harold Richins Jan 1996

Building Community Commitment For A Region's Future: The Case Of Port Stephens, Australia, Harold Richins

Visions in Leisure and Business

With tremendous growth in coastal communities of Australia within the last two decades, intense pressures have been placed on local communities, especially in the areas where tourism is a growing phenomenon. People living in these sensitive regions have been searching for long term solutions. There are many challenges, however, in meeting the needs and dealing with the complex relationships between tourists, residents, investors, providers of tourist and lifestyle experiences, non-government and government organisations. To meet these difficulties, community groups have attempted to gain local awareness of the costs and benefits of more responsible, community based approaches to tourism and other …


Setting An International Precedent: Ecotourism In Australia, Harold Richins Jan 1996

Setting An International Precedent: Ecotourism In Australia, Harold Richins

Visions in Leisure and Business

Ecotourism within Australia has become an important focus at the regional, state and national level. With ten listed world heritage sites, Australia is well placed in providing ecotourism experiences to visitors, both domestically and internationally. There are, however great challenges in balancing development pressures and conservation needs. Australia has been focusing on the natural environment and has a growing commitment to preserving a quality lifestyle for future generations as well as maintaining as much as possible of its biodiversity. It is now at the forefront of major progress in embracing Ecotourism as a sustainable future focus. Australia is one of …

The Filtration Rate, Oxygen Consumption And Biomass Of The Introduced Polychaete Sabella Spallanzanii Gmelin Within Cockburn Sound : Can It Control Phytoplankton Levels And Is It An Efficient Filter Feeder?, Geordie Clapin Jan 1996

The Filtration Rate, Oxygen Consumption And Biomass Of The Introduced Polychaete Sabella Spallanzanii Gmelin Within Cockburn Sound : Can It Control Phytoplankton Levels And Is It An Efficient Filter Feeder?, Geordie Clapin

Theses : Honours

Sabella spallanzanii, a filter feeding, sabellid polychaete worm which is common in the Mediterranean Sea, was recently discovered in Cockburn Sound, Western Australia. The species has been in Port Phillip Bay, Victoria for about 10 years, where it has spread widely, competes with native species and has economic impacts on the local scallop fishery. In Cockburn Sound, S. spallanzanii has colonised a shallow, sandy area known as the Southern Flats, reaching a mean biomass of 258 gDW m2 , as well as almost all artificial structures such as jetties and navigational marker pylons. A large biomass of this introduced …


Intergenerational Contact And Children's Perceptions Of Seniors, Jacqueline L. Carmichael Jan 1996

Intergenerational Contact And Children's Perceptions Of Seniors, Jacqueline L. Carmichael

Theses : Honours

The exploration of issues relating to intergenerational contact and children's perceptions of seniors has received little attention in the area of gerontology. This study employed a survey research approach, utilising a questionnaire to explore this topic. This survey was given to a group of one hundred and six students in Year Six and Seven in a metropolitan Western Australian primary school. The aim of this research is to explore the relationship between intergenerational contact and the perceptions held by primary school aged children about seniors. Previous findings demonstrate that there was either no relationship between the variables or only a …


Nonresidential Father Perception Of Father-Child Relationships: An Exploratory Analysis Of Family Functioning, Wendy J. Nicholls Jan 1996

Nonresidential Father Perception Of Father-Child Relationships: An Exploratory Analysis Of Family Functioning, Wendy J. Nicholls

Theses : Honours

Nonresidential father experiences of family life with their children lack attention in the literature. Nonresidential fathers often suffer considerably, as they attempt to continue their parenting role with limited access lime. Consequently, their relationships with their children may suffer, sometimes resulting in visitation ceasing altogether. Father contact is important to the developmental and psychological well-being of children, yet is often hindered by restricted access, distance, parental conflict and the father's emotional state. Nonresidential father perspectives of family life with their children are explored in this study, to gain insight into nonresidential father experiences. This study replicated a study conducted by …
