A Termőföld Jogi Szabályozásának Inkoherenciái, Milan Meszaros Jan 2003

A Termőföld Jogi Szabályozásának Inkoherenciái, Milan Meszaros

Milan Meszaros physicist

Az Európai Unió országaiban a termőföld jogi szabályozása az egyes országokban ugyan fejlettebb stádiumban van mint Magyarországon, ugyanakkor -az EU tagországok közötti összehasonlításban- a szabályozás eklektikus képet mutat.

Magyarországon -másfél évvel az uniós csatlakozás előtt- a termőföldet érintő jogi szabályozás viszonylag fejlett állapotba jutott el, ugyanakkor e szabályozásban még mindig jelentős koherencia zavar tapasztalható.

Ennek ellenére -a gyakori és hol erre, hol arra hangsúlyt tevő politikai áramlatok támogatásával vagy éppen velük ellentétben- kialakult a termőföldet érintő jogi szabályozás hatóköre és gerince. Ezzel párhuzamosan –az 1989. október 23-án hatályba lépett új alkotmány keretei között– a termőföld szabályozásában kialakult egy inkonzisztens jogforrási …

Unclos And The High Seas: Problems And Suggested Solutions To The Creation Of A Common Pool Resource On An International Scaleproblems And Suggested Solutions To The Creation Of A Common Pool, Chad J. Mcguire Jan 2003

Unclos And The High Seas: Problems And Suggested Solutions To The Creation Of A Common Pool Resource On An International Scaleproblems And Suggested Solutions To The Creation Of A Common Pool, Chad J. Mcguire

Chad J McGuire

The purpose of this paper is to critically analyze UNCLOS as an efficient management regime for protecting migratory marine species1, especially those with economic value. The premise, based on foundations of collective action theory, is UNCLOS cannot adequately protect marine resources. The main reasons include the dynamics involved with national sovereignty, along with UNCLOS creation of what is tantamount to a common pool, or open access resource through the development of the “high seas” concept.

Environmental Health In Public Health, R. Konkel, Darryl Barnett, Joe Beck, Worley Johnson Dec 2002

Environmental Health In Public Health, R. Konkel, Darryl Barnett, Joe Beck, Worley Johnson

Steve Konkel

A most intriguing question, and one that leads to many debates both inside and outside of the environmental health field, is a definition of environmental health. The answer given is often tempered by one's political slant (i.e., liberal, moderate, or conservative) and by one's professional training (e.g., public health sanitation, chemistry, nursing, ecology, planning, public administration, etc). Although agreement is needed to effectively address the challenges in the field, disagreement often centers on what constitutes environmental health and even on the name or nickname that should be applied to individuals whose primary focus is on one or many aspects of …

The Road To Perdition: The Demise Of Tmdl Litigation, James R. May Dec 2002

The Road To Perdition: The Demise Of Tmdl Litigation, James R. May

James R. May

Citizens have filed more than two dozen suits and sent nearly four dozen notices of intent to sue EPA to implement the Clean Water Act's once vaunted "total maximum daily load" (TMDL) program. 33 U.S.C. §1313(d). The results are striking. Since 1997, states and EPA have identified nearly 20,000 waters previously thought to comply with water quality standards that do not. Since 2000, EPA has established or approved nearly 8,000 plans that aim to make these dirty waters fishable and swimmable. EPA is under court order to move the TMDL program along in more than 20 states. TMDL litigation, particularly …

State Laws And The Independent Judiciary: An Analysis Of The Effects Of The Seventeenth Amendment On The Number Of Supreme Court Cases Holding State Laws Unconstitutional, Donald J. Kochan Dec 2002

State Laws And The Independent Judiciary: An Analysis Of The Effects Of The Seventeenth Amendment On The Number Of Supreme Court Cases Holding State Laws Unconstitutional, Donald J. Kochan

Donald J. Kochan

In recent years, the Seventeenth Amendment has been the subject of legal scholarship, congressional hearings and debate, Supreme Court opinions, popular press articles and commentary, state legislative efforts aimed at repeal, and activist repeal movements. To date, the literature on the effects of the Seventeenth Amendment has focused almost exclusively on the effects on the political production of legislation and competition between legislative bodies. Very little attention has been given to the potential adverse effects of the Seventeenth Amendment on the relationship between state legislatures and the federal courts. This Article seeks to fill part of that literature gap, applying …
