In rare critical moments in history, the professional officers of a national armed force may be faced with the ultimate decision of whether to continue to support the government to which they had originally given their allegiance. The Sixth Royal Military College Military History Symposium, held in Kingston, Ontario, in Marcgh 1979, addressed five such situations. George Stanley’s opening essay, in this collection, discusses the general problem and sets the pattern for succeeding essays. These range from the British Army in the American Revolution (by Ira Gruber) through the French Royal Officers in the French Revolution (Samuel Scott), the Hapsburg Officer Corps during the reign of Francis-Joseph (Gunther Rothenberg), and the Canadian Expeditionary Force in World War I (Desmond Morton), to the German Officer Corps under Hitler in the Second World War (Peter Hoffmann). ‹/p

The increased emergence of dual and multiple nationality in our globalized world has recently led to public and scholarly debates on a number of resulting practical questions. This book comprehensively evaluates the legal status of dual nationals on the basis of a comparative analysis, with emphasis on practice and law in the United States of America, the Federal Republic of Germany, Turkey and other selected countries, comprising contributions of both academics and practitioners. Among the legal subjects examined more intensively are the exercise of political rights by dual nationals, including voting and office holding, performance of military service, loss and withdrawal of citizenship, and effects of dual nationality on judicial cooperation, as well as aspects of private international law. The authors pay attention to developmental trends and legal changes in various countries, and also to the philosophical and theoretical perspectives underlying various practices. Specific recommendations for states dealing with dual nationality complete the investigation.
