CCC - "Illegal Combatants" And The Law Of Armed Conflict The moral effacement of the individual under international law is not complete. A terrorist or other illegal combatant who trades upon his adversary s http://www.ccc.nps.navy.mil/si/aug02/law.asp

The views expressed here are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the views of NPS, the Department of Defense, or the U.S. Government. Click here for a PDF version of this article. The comments that follow are not intended to address the POW issue directly, still less the question of what should or should not count as "war" in present circumstances. The aim is rather to examine the historical genesis and legal standing of the idea of the combatant, in order to shed some light on the difficulties that surround its application to irregular warfare and terrorism. Those difficulties are not new. On the contrary, the problem of how to distinguish the soldier's legal use of force from all the other forms of violence to which mankind is prone has been crucial to the development of the modern law of war development that may well take some new twists in light of recent events.

Harry Magdoff and John Bellamy Foster November 1996 Honest, Able, and Fearless Victor Rabinowitz, (Urbana and Chicago: University of Illinois Press, 1996), 352 pp., $29.95, cloth. Among the questions that divide my friends is whether it is possible that widespread revolutionary organization may someday occur even in the United States, the Belly of the Beast as goes a phrase all my fellow 68ers will recall. If you think the question deserves to be asked, then the history of the repression of the U.S. Left after the Second World War (and of what survived the storm) is worth your attention. After all, if this history is forgotten then the question is indeed not worth asking. How the ruling class of the United States manages its domestic repression is, in any event, of general relevance in many other places as well. Victor Rabinowitz at age eighty five offers a sharp, fascinating, and superbly written report on this question from inside that structured but flexible Great Intestine of the United States, its legal system.
Extractions: Call it a toxic memorial, a monument to loose laws and fast money. This monument, tons of municipal incinerator ash from Philadelphia, lies on a rural Haitian beach where it was dumped one night in 1986 by a barge called the Khian Sea. The ship had entered the port with a permit to unload fertilizer. Fertilizer? Hardly! This cargo contained some of the most toxic chemicals on the planetdioxins and furan and laced with heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury and arsenic. As workers began heaping the ash only yards from the incoming waves, one crewman even stuffed his mouth with a handful of the flaky black cargo to prove its harmless nature. Nearly one fourth of the 13,000 plus tons of waste had been unloaded from the barge before the Haitian government intervened and ordered the ash reloaded onto the barge. But the Khian Sea disappeared under the cover of darkness, leaving approximately 3,000 tons of toxic ash on Haiti's beach. The Khian Sea returned to Philadelphia with the remainder of its deadly cargo. The ship spent the next two years vainly seeking a dumping ground; it crossed the Atlantic, sailed around the coast of West Africa, through the Mediterranean, down the Suez Canal and into the Indian Ocean. When it finally pulled into the Singapore harbor it had a new name (the Pelicano), a new owner, and an empty hull.

Trade Union: Definition And Much More From Answers.com The problem of international comparison. As labour law is very diverse in different international cooperation. The largest organization of trade union http://www.answers.com/topic/trade-union
Extractions: var tcdacmd="cc=edu;dt"; Investment Organized Labor An association of workers united as a single, representative entity for the purpose of improving the workers' economic status and working conditions through collective bargaining with employers. Also known as "unions". There are two types: the horizontal union, in which all members share a common skill, and the vertical union, composed of workers from across the same industry. Investopedia Says The union formation process in most countries is regulated by a government agency such as the National Labor Relations Board in the United States. The group of employees wanting to form a union usually need a set amount of signatures, this amount is dependent on the jurisdiction it wants to form in. If enough signatures are obtained there is a vote by all employees and if passed the union will negotiate on their behalf with the employers.

Extractions: The Canadian labour movement The following excerpts from the history of the labour movement in Canada is adapted from material prepared by the Education Department of the Canadian Labour Congress and are used courtesy of the CLC. Labour unions have existed in Canada since the early 1800s. There is a record of some skilled tradesmen having a union organization in Saint John, N.B., during the War of 1812. Trade unionists say there is significance in the fact that one of the earliest records of union organization in Canada is found in legislation adopted in Nova Scotia in 1816 that made it extremely difficult for workers to form unions. The preamble to this act referred to union activity in Halifax and other parts of the province as being illegal. But despite this opposition, groups of workers in many parts of the country formed their own organizations during the first half of the 1800s. These included printers in Halifax, Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto and Hamilton; shoemakers in Montreal and Hamilton; carpenters, shipwrights, seamen, stonecutters, blacksmiths, painters, bakers, tailors and others. Among them were workers in some trades that have since almost disappeared for example, sailmakers and coopers (barrel makers).

Extractions: West Hartford, Connecticut The situation is now familiar to those of you in the construction trades: your local unions are becoming shells. The powers that were traditionally exercised by your local union have been sucked upward and usurped by district or regional bodies. The locals still exist, but they have no power. The real work is being done by the next-higher bodies. These district or regional bodies are called "intermediate" bodies because they are intermediate between the locals and the international. Where do these intermediate bodies get their money? Is it legal?
