Alojzija Štebi je bila ena najpomembnejših slovenskih in jugoslovanskih feministk v medvojnem obdobju, ki je pomembno zaznamovala jugoslovansko žensko gibanje.

Although the moral foundations of voting rights regulations have been the subject of widespread scrutiny, there is one aspect of the debate which has gone largely unquestioned and is currently accepted in every state’s actual voting rights regulations. This is the requirement of prior residence, which stipulates that immigrants are granted the righ...

To resolve the puzzle, ...
