Is Milosevic getting a fair trial at The Hague?
The author, who has been a leading defence counsel in another war crimes trial at the Hague, explains the legitimacy of the Tribunal there and the law of criminal responsibility – suggesting that despite serious procedural flaws the Tribunal is likely to produce as a fair a trial as anywhere in the world, particularly with the eyes of the world upon proceedings.

Asset Identification Under the Cape Town Convention and Protocols
A titania-supported nickel catalyst was prepared and tested in methanation in order to evaluate its catalytic properties (activity, selectivity and specially, activity loss), and compare it with an alumina-supported nickel catalyst. The titania-supported catalyst did not only show higher stability than alumina, but also presented a different cause of deactivation, carbon formation. In addition, a kinetic model was obtained for the titania-supported catalyst, and a study of the effect of different operating conditions (temperature, composition and partial pressures of synthesis gas and water) on the deactivation rate and carbon formation of this catalyst was performed. </p

Public financing of the arts in England
The paper describes the method, amount and composition of public financing of the arts and heritage services in England during the 1990s. This offers the background to a discussion of how far the rationale for government financing for such services can rely on arguments derived from welfare economics. The presence of ‘market failure’ has been widely accepted by successive governments and their advisers, but attempts to remove it have encountered the familiar problems of ensuring allocative and technical efficiency when production subsidies are the main policy instrument. Special attention is devoted to the policy dilemmas that are likely to arise in the years ahead in the performing arts, heritage and broadcasting.
