Pedagogy of Peace: The Contribution of Jean Monnet to the Construction of the European Union. Jean Monnet/Robert Schuman Paper Series, Vol. 9 No. 5, March 2009
No full text[From the Introduction]. The objective of this article is to present the leading role of Jean Monnet in the process of emergence and consolidation of the European Union (EU). Thus, the work first describes the efforts of the French designer to construct the union on a sector-by-sector basis, through an innovative method, and to overcome the barriers to achieving those objectives. Next, it explains Jean Monnet’s main theses, which support the building of the Community structures. Finally, it explains the development of the European bloc, and its consecration as the boldest and most complex integration model in the world

All Roads Lead to Rome: Background, Context and Legacy of the Treaty on the European Community. Jean Monnet/Robert Schuman Paper Series Special Issue 3, August 2012
No full textFrom the Introduction. The rejection by the French National Assembly of the ill-fated European Defense
Community (EDC) Treaty in August 30, 1954, together with the automatic shelving of the equally faulty
European Political Community (EPC) proposal, put an end, at least for the time being, to any form of
political and military union of the existing Western Europe on a supranational level. The times were
difficult in Europe and the international atmosphere was cloudy. The end of the Korean War coincided
with the insistence of the Soviets to stick to a policy of détente, leading to the suppression of the
Hungarian rebellion. France was facing opposition to her colonial presence in Indochina, as well as in
North Africa. But the crisis of Suez prompted the French government to distance itself from the British
and the United States. The defeat of the EDC and EPC was not going to be the end of the story and the
dream inaugurated by Monnet and Schuman in 1950. It was not long before plans in favor of a European
re-launch were taking shape.
Rehypothecation
No full textHow would you feel if even though you were making regular monthly payments, your mortgage bank sold your house? This may seem like an odd question, but this type of situation happens every day in financial markets in a practice known as rehypothecation. Although such practices may be hard for nontraders to understand, rehypothecation is widespread in financial markets. Following the crisis of 2007-2009, the Dodd-Frank Act put restrictions on rehypothecation for derivatives. To understand the scope of these restrictions, we need to understand the role of rehypothecation in financial trades. In this article, Cyril Monnet discusses questions such as: Which party to a financial trade does rehypothecation benefit? Are there limits to its advantages? And how should it be regulated? There are no hard and fast answers to the last question, but the author notes that we can make a more informed decision about the pros and cons of various forms of regulation if we understand the underlying economics.Financial markets ; Financial Regulatory Reform (Dodd-Frank Act)
La protección internacional de adultos. el encaje de los actuales instrumentos de derecho internacional privado y las perspectivas de avances en la UE
No full text[spa] El presente working paper tiene su origen en la ponencia presentada por la
autora en el marco del “Col·loqui amb joves investigadors: l’actualitat del Dret privat
europeu” en mayo de 2016, organizado por la Dra. Esther Arroyo, titular de la Càtedra
Jean Monnet de Dret Privat Europeu UB. Se centra en ciertas cuestiones del análisis
desde el Derecho internacional privado de la protección de adultos que la autora
pretende desarrollar en un futura contribución a elaborar en este ámbito: se trata de
la actual falta de un Reglamento específico de la UE que aborde la materia, las
perspectivas de acoger novedades legislativas al respecto y en particular la interacción
entre ciertos instrumentos internacionales que cubren algunos aspectos en este
marco, lo cual conduce a la necesidad de evitar incoherencias y propiciar la
compatibilidad entre los mismos. En tal sentido, se detallan de forma limitada aquí
algunos problemas observados en la actualidad junto a posibles avances de futuro
partiendo de la información contenida en el artículo más extenso ya publicado
recientemente como ÁLVAREZ TORNÉ, M., “Current issues in the protection of adults
from the perspective of Private International Law”, REEI, diciembre 2016, nº 32,
disponible en: http://www.reei.org/index.php/revista/num32/notas/current-issues-inthe-
protection-of-adults-from-the-perspective-of-private-international-law[eng] The present working paper has its origins in the paper presented by the
author in May 2016 in the framework of the "Col·loqui amb joves investigadors:
l'actualitat del Dret privat europea", organized by Dr Esther Arroyo, head of the Jean
Monnet Chair of European Private Law UB. It focuses on certain issues in the analysis of
the protection of adults from the perspective of Private International Law that the
author intends to develop in a future contribution to be drawn up in this area. These
refer to the current lack of a specific EU Regulation addressing this subject, the
prospects of embracing new legislative developments and, in particular, the interaction
between international instruments which cover certain aspects in this context, all this
leading to the need to avoid inconsistencies and to promote compatibility between
them. In this sense, a limited explanation is given here of some currently observed
problems, together with possible progress, on the basis of the information contained in
the more extensive article recently published as ÁLVAREZ TORNÉ, M., "Current issues in
the protection of adults From the perspective of Private International Law, REEI,

No full textJean Monnet, le père de l’Europe, un inconnu ? Des historiens européens et d’Amérique, spécialistes de l’Europe, ont rassemblé leurs connaissances acquises dans les archives de Jean Monnet et dans celles de leurs pays ou glanées dans les entretiens avec les témoins, pour faire un bilan sans complaisance de Jean Monnet. Ce volume ne fournira pas une biographie ronde et lisse mais plutôt des interprétations parfois contradictoires de la personnalité et de l’œuvre de Monnet, de l’inspirateur selon l’apostrophe fameuse du général de Gaulle. L’espace considéré est celui du siècle : depuis le premier engagement public de Monnet pendant la Grande Guerre jusqu’à la période du Comité d’Action pour les Etats-Unis d’Europe des années 1960 et 1970. La multiplicité des formes de l’action de Monnet révèle l’extraordinaire pouvoir de persuasion et de transformation de cet homme, issu du vieux terroir français des Charentes, mais embrassant aussi les lointains horizons de l’Atlantique. En ces temps d’hésitations internationales, de mondialisation redoutée, Monnet a poursuivi une idée simple, mais forte : la Paix et l’union des Européens. Le rapprochement entre la France et l’Allemagne en constituait la pierre angulaire. Dépasser les vieux antagonismes, fusionner les souverainetés, donner une identité à l’Europe, telle était son ambition. Ce livre d’histoire explique comment Monnet a su utiliser les grands événements du XXe siècle en travaillant avec les plus éminents responsables politiques pour réaliser, en partie, ces objectifs

Let's make it clear: how central counterparties save(d) the day
No full textThe bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers in 2008 will certainly be featured in history books as one of the greatest financial failures so far, but it will also be recorded as yet another episode of the historically successful performance of clearing arrangements in ensuring the resiliency of markets. Recognizing the usefulness of safe and sound clearing and settlement procedures, the Federal Reserve has recently supported the attempt to shift the clearing of some contracts to a central counterparty. In this article, Cyril Monnet outlines the arguments in favor of central counterparty clearing, the economic rationale for trade clearing through a central counterparty, and some possible limits to the advantages of clearing trades through a central counterparty.Bankruptcy ; Risk
