Excerpt: The Luxembourg Army is the national military of Luxembourg (the Gendarmerie was merged into the Grand Ducal Police in 2000). It was formerly commanded by a colonel, but as of 2008 is commanded by a General; Luxembourg has no navy (the country is landlocked) or air force, although it does have aircraft. The army has been an all-volunteer force since 1967. It has a current strength of approximately 450 professional soldiers, about 340 enlisted recruits and 100 civilians, and a total budget of $369 million, or 0.9% of GDP. The army is under civilian control. The Commander-in-Chief is the Grand Duke, but day-to-day responsibility for defence matters is vested in the Minister for Defence, currently Jean-Marie Halsdorf in 2009 replacing Jean-Louis Schiltz (since February 23, 2006), under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Immigration. The two highest-grade members of the Luxembourg Army are the Grand-Duke and the "Chef d'Etat Major" Gen Gaston Reinig. These are the two only generals in the army, the son of the Grand-Duke being a major. Luxembourg has participated in the Eurocorps since 1994, has contributed troops to the UNPROFOR and IFOR missions in former Yugoslavia, and participates with a small contingent in the current NATO SFOR mission in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Luxembourg army is integrated into the Multinational Beluga Force under Belgian command. Luxembourg troops have also deployed to Afghanistan to support ISAF. Luxembourg has financially supported international peacekeeping missions during the 19...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=17837 ... Read more

Excerpt:The Deputy Prime Minister of Luxembourg is the second-highest position in the Luxembourgian cabinet . The Deputy serves a vital function in Luxembourg's collegiate cabinet system, deputises for the Prime Minister when he is absent, represents his or her own political party, and holds other government positions. Since the position was created, in 1959, all governments have been coalitions of two of the three major parties: the Christian Social People's Party (CSV), the Luxembourg Socialist Workers' Party (LSAP), and the Democratic Party (DP). The Deputy Prime Minister has always been a leading politician from the junior coalition partner. Since 1989, the title of Deputy Prime Minister has been an official one, although the position had been unofficially known by that name since its creation. From the position's creation until 1989, the Deputy Prime Minister went by the name of the Vice-President of the Government . This mirrored the Prime Minister's title, which was President of the Government until 1989. List of Deputy Prime Ministers Deputy Prime ... ... Read more

Excerpt: Louis Charles Marx (26 July 1903 13 June 1946) was a Luxembourgian politician for the Communist Party of Luxembourg. He was a physician by profession, and fought for the French Resistance during the Second World War. He had very well succeeded in his medical studies in Paris starting as an intern (1929), to become chief of clinical surgery, then a laureate of the Académie Nationale de Médecine and finally a member of the Committee of the French Association of Surgery (1935). He founded his own hospital, of 50 beds, in Ettelbruck, in north-western Luxembourg. There, in 1940, he helped two interned French airmen to escape to France. Charles Marx escaped himself, with his family, just before the German invasion. He briefly directed four French hospitals, in Nevers and Quillan. In July, he founded the first resistance group of the Armée secrète, which, in May 1943, was followed by a first maquis in the western Pyrenees. In June 1943, he was condemned to death in absentia in Montpellier by the Nazis. In February 1944, Charles Marx was appointed medical commander of the FFI and chief health manager of the Resistance in the oriental Pyrenees. In September 1944, he took part in the liberation of Lyon. In October, being the delegate of the medical resistance council, he was named attaché to the Health Minister and was charged to organise French-American military surgical structures. At the end of July, he took up the management of the Ettelbruck hospital. In November 1945, he was nomi...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=13130241 ... Read more

Excerpt:Luxembourg City Hall (French: ) is the city hall of Luxembourg City, in southern Luxembourg. The city hall is the centre of local government, including being used as the private office of the Mayor of Luxembourg City. Due to its position in Luxembourg's capital, it also regularly plays host to foreign dignitaries. It is located on the southwestern part of Place Guillaume II (Knuedler), the main square in the centre of the city. The two-storey building is built in neoclassical style. The entrance is flanked by two leonine sculptures, which represent the city of Luxembourg, as reflected on its coat of arms.Until 1795, the Place Guillaume II was home to a monastery of Franciscan monks, At the time, Luxembourg's town hall was the current Grand Ducal Palace, located just to the east of Place Guillaume II, on Krautmaart. The French invasion during the French Revolutionary War heralded a seizure of the monastery, and the beginning of the use of the Grand Ducal Palace for central government purposes. As a result, for three decades, the municipal headquarters were moved around the city, without adequate accommodation. Ever since Napoleon had given the site of the monastery to the city, plans had been underfoot to build a purpose-built city hall. These plans finally came to fruition in 1828, when a design by Liège-based Justin Remont was given the go-ahead. The following year, the old monastery, which had fallen into disrepair, was deconstructed, with much of the material going towards building the new city hall, construction of which began in 1830. Construction continued through the Belgian Revolution, ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=12062475 ... Read more

Product Description
"Multilingualism and Government" provides case studies and an overview of the way in which governments deal with societal multilingualism in countries such as Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg, and the former Yugoslavia, in comparison with South Africa. The Universities of Antwerp in Belgium and the Orange Free State in South Africa have initiated a series of colloquia on Multilingualism and Government to be held over the next three years. This book is the outcome of the first of these and also the first of three publications that will follow from the colloquia. It specifically focuses on language policy and language legislation in these countries and presents a range of stimulating models, examples and also problems and challenges that need further attention. It is clear that each country is unique with regard to its language politics. However, it is also clear that the countries dealt with offer each other many useful lessons. For this reason the book offers an interesting comparative forum on language policy matters."Multilingualism and Government" is essential reading matter for decision-makers involved in language policy and language legislation, language planners and language managers, language practitioners, scholars, researchers and students of language politics in general. ...
