After the Second World War, all “free” States affirmed their will “to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind, and to reaffirm faith in fundamental human rights, in the dignity and worth of the human person, in the equal rights of men and women and of nations large and small, and to establish conditions under which justice and respect for the obligations arising from treaties and other sources of international law can be maintained, and to promote social progress and better standards of life in larger freedom »1 thus establishing a new collective security system (CSS) which purpose was “To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace”2.

...PART 1. Estimate the value of AEM and its equity value. Step 1. Estimate free cash flow In DCF model, the first step is to forecast the cash flows. Given the seven-year projections of AME’s free cash flow shown in Exhibit 9, related free cash flows are organized in table 1. Line 4 through 13 show a simplified income statement for AEM. Depreciation is a noncash expense. Includes depreciation is because it may impact on taxable amount. Line 14 adds depreciation back to generate the free cash flow for AEM. As figures are calculated through Excel, there might be rounding errors. In addition, all the entries in the table are expressed in US dollars, which considers the effect of foreign exchange fluctuations on the transactions Step 2. Determine discount rate. The following step is to determine an appropriate discount rate to generate the net present value of the entity. As Nickols and Chelonis agree with that “the estimate of the weighted average cost of capital provided in the report were in line with their expectation” (,pp.11), the amount of WACC provided in Exhibit 10 can be considered convincible to use as the discount rate in this DCF analysis (line 16). Target weight used to forecast WACC is based on AEM’s historical average. As the historical target weight applied by AEM is different from that used by its competitors, A-G Financial Consulting considered it reasonable to believe that AEM management would continue to use this proportion to raise capital (debt/equity...

...International Law and Municipal Law Issues: • Does domestic law override international law? • Does international law apply domestically? 1 Theoretical Issues • Monism: Essentially exponents of natural-law theories; consequently, they regard all law as part of the same universal normative order, with municipal law deriving its binding force by way of delegation from international law. Thus, monists consider international law a part of domestic law. • Dualism: Essentially exponents of legal positivists – therefore, they have an essentially consensual view of international law, believing that international and municipal law were two separate legal orders. International law must be incorporated into domestic law, for it to apply domestically. • Harmonisation: Assumes that international law forms part of municipal law but acknowledges that on occasions when there was a conflict between the two systems, a municipal judge would be bound by the jurisdictional rules of the domestic domain. 2 Primacy of International Law 1 Municipal Tribunals Whether international law has primacy over municipal law depends on each particular country’s constitution. In Australia, there is no express incorporation of international obligations in Australia. Implementing legislation is required for both treaty and customary international law to apply. See below for further information. 2 International Tribunals A State cannot invoke domestic laws as an excuse for failure...

...number of arguments (including complements and the subject) that goes from zero to three (rarely four). For each verb the information specified in the lexicon includes a) the type of verb, b) the thematic roles that are assigned to its arguments, c) what is the hierarchy of the arguments (with the associated theta-role), d) whether they assign case to one or more arguments. It is crucial when learning a foreign language to realize that while the meaning of the verb, namely the event type and, as a consequence, the theta-roles assigne by it can be the same in L1 (our native language) and L2 (our foreign language), the hierarchy of the arguments may be very different. Let us make a very well-known example of the Italian – English contrast: (1) a. b. John likes potatoes. A Gianni piacciono le patate. Like and piacere express the same kind of event. It is a psychological state (of pleasure) which has two theta-roles: the EXPERIENCER of the pleasure and the THEME of the pleasure. In both languages the EXPERIENCER is animate and the THEME is not animate. But in English the EXPERIENCER is the subject while in Italian the subject is the THEME. Notice that this does not even imply that the word order is different in the two...

...Summary International Law Week 1: International law: Rules and principles that govern the international relations between sovereign states and other institutional subjects of international law. * Created primarily by states. * The fact that rules come into being in the manner accepted and recognized by states as authoritative, is enough to ensure that ‘law’ exists. * When a country breaches international law, the Security Council may take enforcement action, or it can result in the loss of corresponding legal rights and privileges. * However, international law lacks many of the formal institutions present in national legal systems. * The International Court of Justice is the judicial organ of the UN and the ICC deals with serious violations of international law of individuals. There are also a few ad hoc tribunals that are concerned with discrete issues of international law. * Another disadvantage is that the system of flexible and open-ended rules is a lack of certainty. Effectiveness: - International law is needed in order to ensure a stable and orderly international society. - There is a psychological barrier against breaking international law, simply because it is law. - The practitioners of international law may have a ‘habit of obedience’ derived from their own training as national lawyers which serves to encourage respect for international law. Weaknesses: - Lack of formal institutions present in national legal systems. - Customary law-making process...

...245C Homework 1 Yunbai Cao 904066974 Apr 11, 2014 Exercise 1.10.3 Proof. Since R equipped with the usual topology F is Hausdorff, (R, F ) is Haudorff as F is stronger than F. Given any x ∈ R, for any y ∈ R\{x}, there exists By open such that By ∩ Byx = ∅. Then R\{x} = is open. Let K = [0, 1]\Q and L = { 1 }. Then K c = (−∞, 0) ∪ (1, ∞) ∪ Q ∈ F , so K 2 is closed. And L is closed by previous paragraph. Let U ⊃ K, V ⊃ L be two open neighbourhoods of K, L. Claim: U ∩ V = ∅. As F is generated by open intervals of R and {Q}, there exists 1 2 y∈R\{x} By y open and Byx x is open. Therefore {x} ∈ V ⊂ V where V is a finite intersection of open intervals (thus an open interval) and {Q}. So L ⊂ I ∩ Q ⊂ V where I is an open interval. On the other hand, as K ∩ Q = ∅, we may assume U ∈ F ( since we can always find an open subset U of U such that K ⊂ U ∈ F). As I 1 2 is an open 1 2 interval, U ∩ I = ∅ since otherwise there will be some irrational number close to in (R, F). Thus U ∩ V = ∅ as claimed. Therefore (R, F ) is not normal. that is not contained in U . Therefore U ∩ I ∩ Q = ∅ as U ∩ I ∈ F and Q is dense Exercise 1.10.6 Proof. Since X is locally compact, for any x ∈ K there exists Ux that U x is compact. Then K ⊂ cover of K, we may write K ⊂ then O = n i=1 U i x∈K Ux . Since K is compact, there n i=1 Ui with Ui ∈ {Ux : x ∈ K}. Let x open such exists a finite O= n i=1 Ui , is compact since finite union of compact sets is compact (Exercise 1.8.1). Let...
