INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. The law of armed conflict – or international humanitarian law (IHL) – regulates the conduct of parties to an armed conflict. It limits the methods and means that parties to an armed conflict may use to weaken the adversary and it provides rules that aim to limit the effects of warfare on vulnerable groups, in particular the civilian population as well as persons that no longer take part in hostilities. In other words, IHL primarily regulates the use of violence by parties to an armed conflict.1 This specific focus of IHL is decisive for the way in which this field of international law addresses activities relating to the exploitation of natural resources by parties to an armed conflict. It also imme- diately reveals the limits of IHL in this respect. The exploitation of natural resources by parties to an armed conflict is not an act of war in itself, but rather, an activity that sustains conflict. Natural resources provide parties to an armed conflict with the means to finance their armed struggle. Therefore IHL appears to be ill suited to regulate the exploita- tion of natural resources by parties to an armed conflict, in contrast with occupation law, which has a different aim, namely to define the rights and obligations for occupants as de facto State authorities. This field of IHL does include rules defining the rights of an occupant with regard to the natural resources situated in occupied territory. The limits of IHL for the scope of this book are also evident from its en- vironmental provisions. The few international humanitarian law provisions which were specifically designed to protect the environment during armed conflict focus on the effects of military operations on the environment.2 Their 1 See the following definition provided by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), which defines IHL as “the branch of international law limiting the use of violence in armed conflicts by: a) sparing those who do not or no longer directly participate in hostilities; b) restricting it to the amount necessary to achieve the aim of the conflict, which

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. The SSM constitutes an integrated administration for the exercise of prudential banking supervision with unique features, posing problems for effective judicial protection. The ECB is to be regarded as the central supervisory authority, responsible for the ‘effective and consistent function- ing of the SSM’, yet is highly dependent on the assistance of the NCAs. Furthermore, ‘assistance’ in many instances would be an understatement for describing the close involvement and essential responsibilities of the NCAs. The NCAs are, inter alia, responsible for the direct supervision of less significant entities, for preparing draft decisions for the ECB and for imple- ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ECB instructions. The integrated nature of the SSM raises a host of legal issues, most notably in guaranteeing effective judicial protection. This dissertation is dedicated to effective judicial protection within the SSM and more specifically within SSM composite procedures, seeking to answer the main research question: This final chapter summarises the findings of the previous chapters and presents concluding observations, syntheses and recommendations that aim to improve the current legal and doctrinal framework governing judicial protection in SSM composite procedures. The recommendations will be addressed to a variety of actors, including the EU legislature, EU and national courts, the ECB and NCAs. Furthermore, this chapter seeks to place the findings regarding the SSM in the broader context of the increas- ing Europeanisation and integration of EU administration. Important to emphasise here is that various dissertations and other academic contributions have also analysed the topic of judicial protection within the SSM.1 Some of the conclusions and recommendations in this chapter correspond to those addressed in other contributions, which in my view reinforces the necessity of critically evaluating the current system and introducing reforms to address the problems identified. Yet not all conclu- 1 For a more extensive overview, see Ch. 1, para 1.7. sions and recommendations are shared with other contributions, and in some respects, this dissertation will propose more far-reaching reforms than proposed by other legal scholars.
INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. Most valuable for us are the observations reflected in lines 9 and 10 of Table 3. Line 9 summarizes the proportion of disagreements in the assignment of T and C on one hand, and F on the other; the proportion of disagreements between C and T relative to all disagreements can be found in line 10. Contrastive topic has been introduced into the theory only recently, and we are not yet able to determine all its properties and distributional characteristics. At the beginning its tagging was based to a certain extent on intuition, more detailed instructions were being developed only using the problematic issues encountered during the course of annotation. This has led us to pay an even increased attention to contrastive topic in our evaluation. It is important to note that the disagreements between C and F bear on a different problem – since focus can be understood as always involving some kind of contrast, a contextually bound item carrying a contrastive feature can be easily misunderstood as a part of focus. In spoken language, prosody can be taken as a helpful criterion (see Veselá et al., 2003).
INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. It is well-known that the Teichmu¨ ller spaces with their canonical complex structure are pseudo-convex. Moreover, all finite dimensional Teichmu¨ ller spaces are ▇▇▇▇▇ domains, hence polynomially convex. The folowing two longstanding problems relate to geometric convexity of these spaces.
1. For an arbitrary finitely or infinitely generated Fuchsian group Γ, is the Bers embed- ding of its Teichmu¨ ller space T(Γ) starlike?
2. Is any finite or infinite dimensional Teichmu¨ ller space of dimension greater than 1 biholomorphically equivalent to bounded convex domain in a complex ▇▇▇▇▇▇ space 𝑋 (of the same dimension as T(Γ))? ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇.▇., 2016 The first problem was stated among other open problems on Teichmu¨ ller spaces and Kleinian groups in the book [3] of 1974, collected by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. The second problem was posed for the finite dimensional spaces by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and for the universal Teichmu¨ ller space by ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. It relates to ▇▇▇▇▇’s result [17] which explicitly yields a real analytic homeomorphism of the universal Teichmu¨ ller space T = T(1) onto a convex domain in a real ▇▇▇▇▇▇ space. The aim of this paper is to outline old and recent results obtained in solving these problems.

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. Since the start of Stage Three of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU), on 1 January 1999, the European Central Bank (ECB) within the Eurosystem has been empowered ‘to define *The author wishes to thank ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for his valuable contribution to the documentation of this paper. The cut-off date for information included therein is 9 June 2021. and implement the monetary policy of the Union’, which is the first of its basic tasks in accordance with Article 127(2) first indent of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union1 (TFEU) and the relevant provisions of the Statute of the European System of Central Banks (ESCB) and of the ECB2 (the ESCB/ECB Statute). Due to onset of the pandemic crisis, economic activity across the euro area was expected to inevitably suffer a considerable contraction. Considering that, the ECB adopted, since early 2020, profound monetary policy, liquidity-supporting measures (designed as temporary ones and close to those taken by major central banks all over the world). It applied both its conventional (interest rate) and unconventional (mainly, balance-sheet) policy. These measures were aimed at both preserving the smooth provision of credit to the economy and ensuring that all its sectors can benefit from supportive financing conditions designed to absorb the implications of the crisis. They were adopted with a view to ensuring the Eurosystem’s primary objective of price stability3 and the proper functioning of the transmission mechanism of monetary policy effects on the level 1 Consolidated version of the Treaty on European Union and the Treaty of the Functioning of the European Union [2016] OJ C 202/47.
INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. The Boards of Directors of both merging companies, dated July 31 2014, drew up this draft merger agreement (hereinafter called the “DMA”). Regarding the merger, the following is noted: The merger by acquisition shall take place according to Articles 69-77 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, as applicable, and regulations, provisions and exemptions of the Law 4172/2013, as applicable. The final decision on the merger shall be taken by the competent bodies of the two merging companies in accordance with Article 72, par. 1 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, as applicable. Upon completion of the merger, the Acquirer shall be the universal successor in respect of all the rights, obligations and assets of the Acquired and generally, all results mentioned in Article 75 of the Codified Law 2190/1920 shall incur. Based on the above, upon the completion of the merger, the Acquired shall be dissolved without liquidation and its shares shall be annulled, while its total assets (assets and liabilities), as shown in the books and included in the specially drafted, under Article 73 of the Codified Law 2190/1920, valuation balance sheet of 06.30.2014, and as being upon the completion of the merger process, shall be transferred to the Acquirer.

INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. 1.1. The subject matter
(1) ▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇ were hungry. These subjects are made up of (at least) two nouns joined together by a coordinating conjunction. In English, only number features are visible on the verb, therefore, after agreement, the verb takes the plural form in the majority of cases, as in (1). Some languages show overt agreement for gender too. Such are, for example, all Slavic languages, out of which Serbian is used to demonstrate this kind of agreement. Agreement in gender is determined by the gender feature on the noun, and with regular subjects, the verb receives the corresponding overt gender marking from the noun. Yet, with conjoined subjects, different patterns emerge, depending on the value of both number and gender features on both NPs. This thesis looks into those patterns and tries to find and explain their regularities. Previous accounts on conjunct agreement make an observation that the nature of φ- features themselves affects the agreement. Depending on the interpretability of features, different agreement patterns may be expected. The thesis tries to prove that agreement with conjoined subjects is highly dependent on the formal as well as on semantic features of the referents, and that animate and inanimate nouns with the same formal features can trigger assignment of different features on the verb.
