Investigates the events surrounding the bombing of Florence, Italy, in Sept 1943, & the impact on the city's perceived immunity from attack because of its globally recognized cultural & artistic heritage. In 1941, the Prefect of Florence had commissioned a study aimed at declaring the city of Florence a "no-fly zone." But following the attack in 1943, & concerned with the Nazi occupation of the city, the Florentine cultural community mobilized to get German command to officially guarantee the safety of the city. Citing medieval & Enlightenment-era religious doctrine, the final report of the Florentine Open City Committee was published in 1944. Legitimized by Cardinal Elia Dalla Costa's direct intervention at the German consulate, it defined international legal & humanitarian issues during wartime. J. Sadler

This research examines the current institutional structures of the executive-legislative relationship in the EU from both a theoretical and an empirical perspective. That is not just examining how the institutions are linked theoretically or even in the formal structural sense, but also their functional political and policy relationship in terms of what they actually do. The character and performance of the EU executive-legislative relationship is analyzed from a comparative perspective in light of the current reforms introduced both in the Lisbon Treaty and in the academic realm among scholars lobbying for institutional reform. The goal of the research is to achieve not just an empirically founded understanding of the current executive-legislative relationship in the EU, but also to obtain an empirical grounding for the current dialog regarding the need for institutional reform in the EU. The goal of this research is to build a bridge between the two parallel empirical and theoretical literatures regarding EU institutions that currently exist. Adapted from the source document.

The war in Iraq uncovers important aspects of the current phase of world politics. The present analysis focuses on the potential impact on the Atlantic coalition made by the American project of introducing important changes in the strategy of global leadership. Hegemonic theory of world politics is the theoretical framework of the analysis. At the same time, the evolutionary world politics model is adopted to understand change in world politics. In the first part, preventive doctrine & the issue of external military intervention to change domestic regimes are analyzed. In the second part, a set of concepts for the analysis of the structure of government of the world political system is presented. In the last part, these concepts are used to analyze the potential effect of the United States project of change on transatlantic relations. 2 Tables, 45 References. Adapted from the source document.
