Some applications are displayed: these include a Galois cohomological descent spectral sequence for the étale K–theory of a scheme (where the Galois group is the Grothendieck fundamental group), and the Morel–Voevodsky description of Thomason–Trobaugh K–theory as Nisnevich K–theory in nonnegative degrees. The is also a spectrum-level description of Voevodsky’s periodicity operator for Nisnevich...

We examine a certain modal consequence relation, and define the notion of validity of a modal sequent on a frame. We demonstrate that it is possible to define classes of frames. not definable by modal formulas, by modal sequents. Through the use of modal algebras and general frames, we obtain a characterization of modal sequent-definable classes of frames which are also first-order definable, a...

World War I irrevocably changed the face of the world, including Croatia and its capital Zagreb. While between 1880 and 1910 Zagreb became a modern European city, World War I (1914-1918) was marked by new municipal regulations that overturned the everyday life of the city. Social conditions reached catastrophic proportions, especially in the later years of the war. Soldiers and refugees swarmed...

I provide an analytical review of the literature on poverty and political violence, focusing on civil war. I also consider the effects of economic inequality and education. Expectations from rational choice theories of civil war are that violence will rise as income per capita, education, and economic growth decline. This is due either to the declining opportunity cost of violence or to the dec...

Civil remedies are procedures and sanctions, specified by civil statutes and regulations, used to prevent or reduce criminal problems and incivilities. Civil remedies generally aim to persuade or coerce nonoffending third parties to take responsibility and action to prevent or end criminal or nuisance behavior. Early examples of civil remedy approaches typically targeted non-offending third par...

The United States is among one of the only democratic industrialized nations in the world that does not provide guaranteed access to civil representation in cases involving basic human need. This leaves indigent litigants who are at risk of losing their homes or their children left to seek counsel through insufficient pro-bono programs or limited scope legal self-help centers. This thesis provi...

In der Informationsgesellschaft nehmen auch in Deutschland aggressive und kriminelle Handlungen (Computermißbrauch) ausweislich der jährlichen Kriminalstatistik [BMI02] zu. Weniger Bedeutung wird in Deutschland bisher politisch–motivierten Aktionen beigemessen. Weltweit werden klassische Verfahren wie ziviler Ungehorsam, innere Unruhen und Bürgerkrieg zunehmend durch IT–gestützte Verfahren ergä...
