The presentation of the new civil law regulations in our country provides us with the opportunity for introspection in the legislations, case law and doctrine of other countries from which our lawmaker inspired. An example in this respect is the « administration of the property of others » which is an institution taken over from the Civil Code of the Quebec Province, Canada. From this perspective, the authors considered necessary and useful to make a presentation of the evolution and content of the institution in the « Québécois » Civil Code, in the current stage of reform in our country. They mention the civillaw nature of the legal system in this Canadian province and the work of its civil code re-codification, which was completed in 1994. The central subject of the article is the administration of the property of others, with the presentation of the administrator, the beneficiary, the forms of administration, as well as its termination.

The enactment and coming into force of Law no. 221/2009 on political convictions and their related administrative measures, ruled during the period 6 March 1945-22 December 1989, generated a complex legal matter caused, in particular, by the lawmaker’s notion regarding the scope of application of the law, the scope of the persons benefiting of the special regulation and the stipulated civil procedural rules, derogatory from common law. From the perspective of the three ideas mentioned, the study aims at harmonizing the legal mechanism designed by the lawmaker, including through “de lege ferenda” proposals, for the purpose of achieving the deeply reparatory nature of the law towards persons oppressed for political reasons, during the communist period.

La France a instauré dès 19641 un système d’organisation et de gestion de l’eau par bassin. La planification résulte de la loi de 19922 avec la création du Schéma directeur d’aménagement et de gestion des eaux (SDAGE) à l’échelle du bassin et du Schéma d’aménagement et de gestion des eaux (SAGE) par sous-bassin3. En application des diverses directives communautaires ou de politiques spécifiques (risques, assainissement), ces planifications de base sont complétées par des instruments de gestion, des mesures et des programmes, à l’échelle du district hydrographique, du sous-district hydrographique. Cette planification a été enrichie d’autres outils de planification, le plus souvent à une échelle plus localisée (zone d’inondations par exemple).

The present article analyzes, from a historical perspective, the debate concerning the export cartel debate from its birth in 1918 until today. There can be identified four different periods of the debate that revolve around the enactment of the Webb-Pomerene Act, the creation of the Bretton Woods institutions, the creation of the World Trade Organization and the July package decision of 1 July 2004. The article highlights the actors and the ideas that shaped the debate and the results that were obtained. While it is clear that the fairest solution to the issue of export cartels would be the prohibition of this practice, what is not clear is the path that would lead to the ban and the institutional framework that would support it afterwards. This paper thus proposes an approach for identifying the most affordable solution. It argues however that, before launching an institutionalized solution on export cartels, more in depths analysis is needed.
