CHAPTER IV THE POLITICAL THEORY OF THE CATHOLIC REVIVAL1 ▼ ▼ Relief Act of 1829, a body of men who had been for too long excluded from political privilege became once more citizens of the State.8 The grounds for their exclusion had been, for the most part, based upon a single fact. 'The modern theory,' writes Lord Acton,8 'which has swept away every authority except that of the State, and has made the sovereign power irresistible by multiplying those who shared it, is the enemy of that common freedom in which religious freedom is included. It condemns, as a State within the State, every inner group and community, class or corporation, administering its own affairs; and, by proclaiming the abolition of privileges, it 1 The best general work on the Catholic Revival in England is that of M. Thureau-Dangin: 'La Renaissance Catholique en Angleterre au XIXme siecle.' This has been translated. To M. Thureau-Dangin, however, the movement is entirely non-political. 2 The story of the emancipation may now be consulted in Monsignor Bernard Ward's Eve of Catholic Emancipation. It is, however, weak on the non-religious side. s History of Freedom, p. 151. I Roman Catholic emancipates the subjects of every such authority, in order to transfer them exclusively to its own.' The divine right of kings, was, in fact, replaced by a right divine inherent in the State; and it was argued that men owed to it an allegiance that should be undivided. But the Pope was a temporal sovereign, and to him, as the head of their Church, the Catholics owed a full allegiance. They were a close and united body, the typical imperium in imperio of which Lord Acton wrote; and it was perhaps logical, even if it was ungenerous, that men should deem it impossible for... John Dinan, "State Constitutional Politics: Governing by Amendment in the American States" English | ISBN: 022653281X | 2018 | 368 pages | EPUB | 568 KB Since the US Constitution came into force in 1789, it has been amended just twenty-seven times, with ten of those amendments coming in the first two years following ratification. By contrast, state constitutions have been completely rewritten on a regular basis, and the current documents have been amended on average 150 times. This is because federal amendments are difficult, so politicians rarely focus on enacting them. Rather, they work to secure favorable congressional statutes or Supreme Court decisions. By contrast, the relative ease of state amendment processes makes them a realistic and regular vehicle for seeking change.
Johannes Leitner, "State Capture, Political Risks and International Business: Cases from Black Sea Region Countries" English | ISBN: 1138233773 | 2016 | 238 pages | EPUB | 1035 KB In the OECD-area states provide security business to be conducted through a legal-institutional framework where state institutions, working in a legal-rational, predictable and effective manner, are often taken for granted. Worldwide, however the situation is very different. Private actors seize public institutions and processes accumulating ever more power and private wealth by systematically abusing, side-stepping, ignoring and tailoring formal institutions to fit their interests. Such forms of 'state capture' are associated with specific political risks international businesses are confronted with when operating in these countries, such as institutional ambiguity, systematic favouritism and systemic corruption.
