Abstract

This book analyses the EU's Constitutional Treaty, which emerged in draft form from the European Convention in the summer of 2003 and which was finalised by an Intergovernmental Conference (IGC) in June 2004. It describes the main novelties of the treaty and looks at policies of important actors, Member States and Community actors (the Commission and European Parliament) and the roles played by the Convention and the Italian and Irish Presidencies during the process of deliberation and negotiation that produced the treaty. It further studies the failure of ratification in France and the Netherlands and the implications for the process of European integration of this failure. It finally touches on the question whether a constitutional equilibrium has been reached. Since the new Lisbon Treaty negotiated in 2007 contains much of what was in the Constitutional Treaty the analyses of the book remain pertinent for this latest EU treaty.

Abstract

Because neutron physics is the essential part of reactor physics, it is the main subject taught to students of Nuclear Engineering. This book takes an instructional approach for that purpose. Neutron Physics is also intended for all physicists and engineers involved in development or operational aspects of nuclear power.

Abstract

The transport of neutrons in a multiplying system is an area of branching processes with a clear formalism. This book presents an account of the mathematical tools used in describing branching processes, which are then used to derive a large number of properties of the neutron distribution in multiplying systems with or without an external source. In the second part of the book, the theory is applied to the description of the neutron fluctuations in nuclear reactor cores as well as in small samples of fissile material. The question of how to extract information about the system under s

Abstract

This provocative book presents a theory of the First Amendment's development. During the twentieth century, Americans gained trust in its commitments, turned the First Amendment into an instrument for social progress, and exercised their rhetorical freedom to create a common language of rights. Robert L. Tsai explains that the guarantees of the First Amendment have become part of a governing culture and nationwide priority. Examining the rhetorical tactics of activists, presidents, and lawyers, he illustrates how committed citizens seek to promote or destabilize a convergence in constitutional ideas. Eloquence and Reason reveals the social and institutional processes through which foundational ideas are generated and defends a cultural role for the courts.

Abstract

La notion de libéralisme crée un sentiment trompeur de familiarité : sa présence envahissante dans le débat public brouille le plus souvent sa compréhension. Mais le terme, inventé dans un contexte de luttes politiques, a toujours été chargé d’ambiguïtés. Aussi les recherches réunies ici visent-elles, non à le réduire à une définition dogmatique, mais à en explorer la complexité et les tensions internes. Pour ce faire, elles adoptent un biais particulièrement éclairant : la façon dont la tradition libérale s’est définie en se confrontant aux exigences de la normativité juridique. Les auteurs, spécialistes de philosophie moderne et contemporaine, montrent que le libéralisme ne se réduit pas à une opposition globale à l’idée de norme au nom du « laisser-faire, laisser-passer ». À travers l’étude de moments particulièrement significatifs de son histoire - Locke, Hume, Montesquieu, Bentham, la critique contre-révolutionnaire du libéralisme, Constant, Tocqueville, les anarcho-capitalistes contemporains -, ils donnent plutôt à voir un certain nombre de déplacements dans l’ordre de la normativité. Ils éclairent les débats et les argument suscités par une réflexion renouvelée sur le statut de l’individu, sur le fondement du droit de propriété ou sur la fonction du pouvoir. Ces études peuvent constituer une initiation à la connaissance de quelques-unes des principales figures de la tradition libérale. Elles intéresseront aussi les spécialistes : s’appuyant sur les interprétations classiques de cette tradition, discutant et enrichissant ces interprétations, elles visent à en approfondir les enjeux théoriques.
