This study examines the role of coercion in the unification of the Hawaiian Islands by Kamehameha I between 1782 and 1812 at a time of increasing European contact. Three interrelated themes in Hawaiian political evolution are examined: the balance between coercion and consent; the balance between general structural trends and specific individual styles of leadership and historical events; and the balance between indigenous and European factors. The resulting synthesis is a radical reinterpretation of Hawaiian warfare that treats it as an evolving process heavily imbued with cultural meaning. Hawaiian history is also shown to be characterised by fluid changing circumstances, including crucial turning points when options were adopted that took elements of Hawaiian society on paths of development that proved decisive for political unification. These watershed moments were neither inevitable nor predictable. Perhaps the greatest omission in the standard discourse on the political evolution of Hawaiian society is the almost total exclusion of modern indigenous Hawaiian scholarship on this topic. Modern historians from the Hawai'inuiākea School of Hawaiian Knowledge at the University of Hawaii at Mānoa argue that political leadership and socioeconomic organisation were much more concensus-based than is usually allowed for. Above all, this study finds modern indigenous Hawaiian studies a much better fit with the historical evidence than more conventional scholarship.

Šengenas informācijas sistēma (SIS) ir Eiropas Savienības mēroga IT sistēma, ko izveidoja, lai ievāktu un nodotu informāciju saistībā ar imigrācijas politiku un policijas un tiesu iestāžu sadarbību krimināllietās, ar mērķi atsvērt iekšējās robežkontroles atcelšanu Šengenas teritorijā. Sistēma paceļ būtisku jautājumu par līdzsvaru starp efektīvu tiesībsargājošo iestāžu imigrācijas kontroli un sabiedriskās drošības nodrošināšanu no vienas puses un cilvēku brīvību aizsargāšanu no otras puses. Šā potenciālā konflikta dēļ autors ir izpētījis SIS darbību un tā plānoto attīstību par otrās paaudzes sistēmu, zināmu kā SIS II. Autors ir apskatījis SIS II ar mērķi novērtēt vai piedāvātā sistēma ir efektīva, pārredzama un droša. Latvija nav Šengenas valsts, bet tuvākajā nākotnē par tādu kļūs. Tādēļ Šengenas informācijas sistēma un tās attīstība par otrās paaudzes sistēmu ir viena no galvenajām mūsu valsts prioritātēm. SIS II uzglabās milzīgu personu sensitīvo datu apjomu. Šādu datu apstrāde un aizsardzība tiks regulēta ar daudziem tiesību instrumentiem, kas bieži konfliktēs. Autors pēta kā šādus noteikumus izstrādāt skaidrus un nepārprotamus un, kas būs "neatkarīgā" datu aizsardzības iestāde Latvijā? Autors arī apskata SIS II izveides aizkavēšanās iemeslus un kādas sekas tas radīs dalībvalstīs, jo īpaši Latvijā. ; The Schengen Information System (SIS) is an EU-wide system for the collection and exchange of information relating to immigration, policing and criminal law, for the purposes of law enforcement and immigration control. The System raises fundamental questions concerning the balance between, on the one hand, the operational effectiveness of immigration control and public security by law enforcement authorities, and on the other hand the protection of civil liberties. It is against this potential conflict that author has examined the working of the SIS, and its planned development into a second-generation system, known as SIS II. Author has looked at SIS II with the aim of assessing whether the proposed system is efficient, transparent, accountable and secure. Latvia is not a Schengen State but will become one in the foreseeable future. That's way the Schengen Information System, and its development into a second generation system, are matters of the highest relevance to this country. SIS II will store an enormous volume of sensitive personal data. The processing and protection of such data will be governed by many different legislative instruments, often conflicting. Author considers how the provisions should be made clear and unambiguous. Author has also looked at the delay in setting up SIS II, and the consequences this will have for Latvia and for other Member States.

The other development under the justice and home affairs pillar of the Union relevant to European civil procedure is the so-called Brussels II Convention: the Convention on Jurisdiction and Enforcement of Judgments in Matrimonial Matters signed on 28 May 1998. This Convention continues the work of the 1968 Brussels Convention by extending similar principles to the field of matrimonial matters. The earlier Convention is seen as the general convention and the 1998 Convention as a lex specialis which follows the principles of the earlier Convention as far as possible.

This work involves preparation of new metal complexes via reaction of two anthraquinone ligands with Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) metal ions . The ligands are prepared by treatment of 1- and 2-anthraquinone with acetic anhydride.
The complexes are characterized by different physicochemical methods; microelemental analysis, molar conductivity, FT-IR, UV-Vis spectra and magnetic measurements. The discussion of the outcome data of the prepared complexes indicates that all complexes are octahedral.
The biological activity properties of the ligands and most of their complexes are studied using gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, which indicate that only two of the complexes show biological activity.
