Visions of Dutch Empire: Towards a Long-Term Global Perspective by René Koekkoek, Anne-Isabelle Richard, Arthur Weststeijn

“…It argues for an approach that includes a long-term perspective from the early modern period to the postcolonial situation, which sees ‘Dutch’ history broadly, moving beyond national borders, and instead explicitly informed by influences and actors from across the globe. This implies a transnational and transimperial approach that can highlight these global connections as well as tensions; and finally, an approach that understands intellectual history as going beyond the big names of systemic thinkers, and includes visions of empire as negotiated in (day-to-day) practice.   …”

Political Aspect of the Institute of Extradition in PostSoviet Space by Vlasta L. Goricheva, Olga V. Levashova

“…And, despite the fact that eventually positive attitude toward human rights has come to characterize the institution of extradition, such legal acts as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Convention on the Protection of the Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, Convention against Torture and many others have become an important stage on its way, which ultimately have brought about changes in usual perception of the institution, having adopted the necessity of securing individual rights in it in connection with extradition through transnational cooperation.Intensive discussion of extradition questions in legal literature, abundance of legal acts by no means approaching emerging issues repetitively, constantly arising empirical evidence of lack of clearly defined methods of international cooperation on extradition questions lead to the need to address the deep causes of the problem, to determine the place of extradition in the system of international law, to work out effective legal standards that would enable the institution of extradition to realize its full potential in the fight against world crime. …”

“…These definitions arise from the historically most common depictions of specific activities of organised crime, which in most parts of Europe and North America have traditionally been associated with the illegal collection of debts, extortion rackets, contract murders or systemic corruption leading to, and associated with, a transnational trade in drugs. Through the evolution of the definitions, these stereotypes have gradually waned away, and the use of violence, as well as the primary motivation by material profit, has been omitted from the lists of obligatory characteristics that a crime must fulfill in order to be classified as “organised crime”. …”
