    LOCAL PUBLIC FINANCE MANAGEMENT
    Decentralization has given rise to entities that are distinct from the State, to which the law grants legal personality and financial autonomy: these are the communes. The latter, in the context of local development, are required to provide themselves with sufficient resources, which justifies the provision to them of certain prerogatives that were then the prerogative of the central State. In order to achieve the objectives of local development, the communes have a budget that provides for the resources and expenses they need. However, the autonomy of management that is recognized by law and even by numerous international texts is still a topical debate, as they have difficulty asserting it with the various controls that weigh on their shoulders, which justifies the necessary reorganization.

    The Pastor's Wife: A Courageous Testimony of Persecution and Imprisonment in Communist Romania , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 565min
    In 1949, when Soviet propaganda was asserting that free Christian worship was being tolerated behind the Iron Curtain, the Communists arrested Pastor Richard Wurmbrand in Romania for secret Christian activities. The Pastor's Wife is Sabina Wurmbrand's true story of her efforts to get her husband released, her subsequent imprisonment, and, above all, her unceasing efforts to help build a Christian Underground Church in restricted areas around the world. For the truth is that the Communists to this day cannot tolerate genuine Christianity and are still executing or imprisoning underground Christians. This is the urgent message of The Pastor's Wife. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sadie Alexandru. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hove/001271/bk_hove_001271_sample.mp3.

    Imagining Unequals, Imagining Equals
    Why did »equality« become prominent in European societies based on hierarchy during the Enlightenment? What does »equality« imply for societies, politics, or legal systems? The contributors to this volume draw on various historical case studies, from visionary practices in revolutionary France and the collection of data on the poor in 19th-century Germany, to claims raised under the minority regime of the League of Nations and the anti-discrimination politics of the UN and India. The dynamics of universalizing equality are contrasted with a concept asserting that equality must be limited to and by order. The contributions thus explore concepts of equality from the perspectives of history and law and show that practices of comparing were essential when it came to imagining others as equal, fighting discrimination, or scandalizing social inequalities.

    Lemon v. Kurtzman, Hörbuch, Digital, 154min
    The Pennsylvania legislature passed Act 109, which reimbursed nonpublic religious schools for certain secular educational services. On June 28, 1971, the Supreme Court held that Act 109 violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. The case was remanded, and on remand the district court entered an order which permitted the State to reimburse nonpublic religious schools for services provided before Act 109 was declared constitution. Lemon and others challenged the district court's opinion, asserting that the district court erred in refusing to enjoin payment of around $24 million set aside by the State to compensate nonpublic religious schools for educational services rendered during the 1970-1971 school year.

    Covid-19: The Gabon after...
    Gabon is facing an unprecedented pandemic, rightly described as a health crisis.The decisions made today will determine the Gabon of tomorrow. Do the country's leaders really intend to make Gabon a model of sustainable development? My answer is no.With more than a year to go before the 2023 presidential election, the leaders of the political opposition are already asserting the need for a change of power. Their discourse, which has become routine, consists of valuing alternation both for its own sake, as a sign of "good democratic health," and also because it is supposed to bring about political and social change. More broadly, a whole series of actors (political leaders and activists, collaborators of elected officials and administrative agents, journalists and political commentators, representatives of civil society, employees, pressure groups, etc.) are positioning themselves with a view to a possible future changeover.
