Full textAs states continue to rapidly transition from conflict or autocracy to democracy, there has been need to address past gross human rights violations. To address these past egregious violations, transitioning countries often relied on immunities and prosecutions. However, prosecutions and amnesties presented several challenges that necessitated a recourse to truth and reconciliation commissions (hereafter TRCs). Since then, TRCs have evolved to be an essential accountability mechanism in transitional justice. Given the important role that TRCs play in transitioning countries, the composition of TRCs should be of credible character in the eye of the public. The selected and appointed truth commissioners (hereafter commissioners) play a key role in the truth-finding process and the importance of having a constraint-free and reliable work plan of selecting these commissioners cannot be overestimated. However, in practice the selection and appointment of the commissioners has proven to be a challenging exercise.

Full textThere is an administrative law relationship between the taxpayer and the Commissioner for Inland Revenue, (hereinafter referred to as 'the Commissioner') The basis of this relationship is that the Commissioner is required to collect tax and the taxpayer is required to pay the tax. In exercising his powers under the Income Tax Act No. 58 of 1962 (hereinafter referred to as the Act), the Commissioner has been conferred with discretionary powers. In this thesis, this administrative law relationship is examined with specific reference to the means of regulating the exercise by the Commissioner of his discretionary powers. There are a number of ways in which the discretionary powers of the Commissioner may be regulated. Generally discretion may be regulated by 'rule based administrative action' (1). This means that discretionary power is exercised subject to internal rules which state how discretionary power must be exercised. Another method of regulating the exercise of discretionary power is subsumed under the category of 'adjudicative techniques of decision' (2). The essence of the latter category is that the affected person participates in the decision which affects him. The exercise of discretionary power may be regulated furthermore if the Minister who has responsibility for the Department is required to be responsible for and account publicly for the actions of his subordinate. In this thesis, examples of rule based administrative action and adjudicative techniques of decision are examined.

O propósito deste trabalho é compreender a política de repatriação voluntária de refugiados desenvolvida pelo Alto Comissariado das Nações Unidas para Refugiados (ACNUR), tendo como referência o processo de repatriação de refugiados angolanos, entre 1975 e 2013. Esta dissertação analisará também os fatores condicionantes históricos, especialmente entre a Guerra Fria e seu término, o processo de construção e reconstrução da figura do refugiado e como referida figura se insere no sistema internacional. O processo de constituição do Estado angolano, após a independência, e a presença das Missões de Paz das Nações Unidas em Angola formam o pano de fundo das diferentes tentativas de repatriação de refugiados nos últimos quarenta anos. A partir de experiências precedentes de repatriação voluntária, efetuadas na África, serão investigadas as linhas gerais desenvolvidas pelo ACNUR para solucionar a questão dos refugiados angolanos.
The purpose of this dissertation is to understand the policy of voluntary repatriation of refugees developed by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) with reference to the process of repatriation of Angolan refugees between 1975 and 2013. This dissertation will also examine the historical factors, especially between the Cold War and its end, the processes of construction and reconstruction of the figure of the refugee and how it fits into the international system of States. The process of formation of the Angolan State, after independence, and the presence of Peacekeeping Missions of the United Nations in Angola form the backdrop of the various attempts to repatriate refugees in the last forty years. From previous experiences of voluntary repatriation in Africa, the dissertation investigates the general guidelines developed by UNHCR to solve the question of Angolan refugees.

Full textA dissertação analisa o processo de construção social do Refugiado em dois momentos históricos específicos da segunda metade do século XX: entre 1945- 1954 e no pós-Guerra Fria. O objetivo central é mostrar como as práticas discursivas relativas ao Refugiado são informadas pelas estruturas constitucionais da sociedade internacional e pelas crenças e valores fundamentais que definem os critérios de legitimidade da ação estatal. Procura evidenciar o caráter contingente e variável da definição do Refugiado em dois contextos de transformação da ordem internacional. A pesquisa parte da abordagem construtivista, assentada na proposta de Reus-Smit (1999) e de Onuf (1989), na tentativa de fornecer uma explicação mais adequada dos processos sociais de constituição do Refugiado na moderna sociedade de Estados, enfatizando o papel das organizações internacionais, em especial do Alto Comissariado das Nações Unidas para os Refugiados (ACNUR). Neste sentido, ressalta a importância da territorialidade e do imaginário espacial enquanto critérios centrais para a delimitação dos fenômenos migratórios forçados, critérios esses tensionados a partir da década de noventa.
The dissertation s main purpose is to analyze the process of social construction of the Refugee in two specific historical moments in the second half of the twentieth century: from 1945 to 1954 and after the end of the Cold War. The main goal is to demonstrate how discursive practices related to the refugee are informed by the constitutional structures of international society and by the fundamental values and beliefs that legitimate state action. It also aims at showing the contingent and changing nature of the refugee definition in contexts of profound transformations in international orders. The research is based on a constructivist approach, mainly in Reus-Smit (1999) and Onuf s (1989) frameworks, in an attempt to provide a more adequate understanding of the social processes constitutive of the refugee in the modern society of States, highlighting the role of international organizations, in particular the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). In that sense, it gives emphasis to the primary importance attached to territoriality and the spatial imagery as fundamental criteria to establishing the limits of forced international migration, a criteria that has faced great challenges since the nineties.

Full textSince the 1980&rsquo
s, many dictatorships around the world have been replaced by new democracies. These old dictatorships were notorious for their human rights abuses. Many people were killed and tortured
and many others were disappeared. When the new governments came into power, they had to confront these injustices that were perpetrated under the predecessor regime. This was necessary to create a culture of human rights
promote a respect for the law and access to justice. Many confronted these injustices in different ways, some granted amnesty, some prosecuted and others instituted truth commissions. This research paper focuses on truth commissions. The research focuses particularly on the study of the South African Truth Commission. The mandate of the South African Truth Commission is analysed and the investigation into whether the commission served the purpose for which it had been established is discussed.
