The Exchange Of Recognition And Enforcement Of Foreign Judgments Between Saudi Arabia And The United States, Ibrahim Saleh Aloraini

Maurer Theses and Dissertations

Saudi Arabians and Americans face challenges when they seek to enforce judgments in each other’s country courts because of the absence of international conventions on recognition and enforcement of foreign country money judgments.

'Are We Doing The Right Thing?' Utilising Security Governance To Reform The Us Drone Program, Jane Minson Jan 2022

'Are We Doing The Right Thing?' Utilising Security Governance To Reform The Us Drone Program, Jane Minson

This thesis uses this contextual framework – with a particular focus on the administration of President Barack …

By sharing and contextualizing women’s stories, this paper strikes a blow against women’s erasure from …
