These cases have raised, among other things, the question of what investment treaties, if any, are applicable in the occupied territory. In answering this question, the current paper first examines the obligations of the occupier under the law of occupation vis-à-vis the investment treaty obligations pertaining to occupied state. Recent arbitral decisions upholding arbitral jurisdiction in the Crimean context suggest that the Russian investment treaty norms are applicable in the occupied territory. The paper then critically examines the interpretation of the term “territory”. It finds that the territorial application of treaties may, without violating other rules of international law, be extended to foreign territories under the effective control of a contracting state. Despite the politically grave consequences that such an interpretation could have for the entrenchment of occupation, independent legal review of measures taken by occupying States is to be welcomed.","PeriodicalId":141268,"journal":{"name":"Tiesību ierobežojumu pieļaujamība un attaisnojamība demokrātiskā tiesiskā valstī","volume":"189 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114397824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These issues are mainly related to attempts to avoid detention rights, which other persons may have over the property, which sometimes actually and sometimes allegedly is pledged to the other person under the commercial pledge, as well as uncertainties related to the scope of the pledged property. Within this article, the author analyses these issues and proposes solutions to them mainly in the form of several amendments to the Latvian Commercial Pledge Law (Komercķīlas likums).","PeriodicalId":141268,"journal":{"name":"Tiesību ierobežojumu pieļaujamība un attaisnojamība demokrātiskā tiesiskā valstī","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125657056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The oldest legal texts in Latvian preserved in Latvian libraries are several criminal laws issued in Swedish Livland in the 17th century. In the 18th century, laws and other normative acts were published in Latvian in various sectors: including, for example, the first printed road traffic regulations. The laws were translated from German into Latvian by Baltic German priests, who also read them to the congregations during church services. At the beginning of the 19th century, the first commentary on the laws was published in Latvian, explaining the law on the liberation of peasantry from serfdom in Kurzeme. In 1824, the first newspaper in Latvian was released, which in some ways can be considered the official gazette – “Vidzemes Latviešu Avīzes”.","PeriodicalId":141268,"journal":{"name":"Tiesību ierobežojumu pieļaujamība un attaisnojamība demokrātiskā tiesiskā valstī","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125791293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This principle allows to ensure the supreme legal force and enforcement of the constitution in the legal and social reality. In the Latvian legal system, the principle of supremacy of constitution is recognized as a general principle of law and consequence of the principle of rule of law. This concept was developed after proclamation of the Republic of Latvia and existed as an unwritten norm without special provision in the text of constitution. The principle of supremacy of constitution recognizes the constitution as a legal act with supreme legal force and requires for all other legal acts to be compatible with the constitution. It is forbidden to apply legal norms which do not comply with the constitution. As a legal act with supreme legal force, the constitution cannot be amended with ordinary legislative acts. The principle of supremacy of constitution requires mechanisms of constitutional review in the legal system.","PeriodicalId":141268,"journal":{"name":"Tiesību ierobežojumu pieļaujamība un attaisnojamība demokrātiskā tiesiskā valstī","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126828075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
