 House Guest: Can Sonia Gandhi Be An MP?
The earlier controversy as to whether Sonia Gandhi, a naturalised citizen of India, is eligible to become the Prime Minister of India is now followed by the question whether she can, under our Constitution and parliamentary statutes, even be the leader of the Opposition in Parliament, and for that matter, a Member of Parliament.
Article 84 of the Constitution mandates that a person shall not be qualified to be chosen to fill a seat in Parliament unless he fulfils the conditions prescribed therein, one of them being that he must be a citizen of India.
Sonia Gandhi, a naturalised citizen, is therefore disqualified from holding a constitutional post in India.

It held that naturalised citizens who violated the law should be subject to a separate set of punitive measures.

Such discrimination prevents naturalised Egyptians from feeling that they have become truly Egyptian in practice." Only by assuming the good intentions of naturalised Egyptians and by treating them the same as other Egyptians in all respects, he concludes, "will it be possible to realise the desired concord and effective assimilation".

 Caught by the Act
However, an opinion prepared in 1990 by the Commonwealth DPP argues that suspected Nazi war criminals who obtained citizenship in Australia between January 1949 and October 1958 could still be legally stripped of their citizenship and deported at the Minister’s discretion.
The opinion argues that under Section 21 of the Nationality and Citizenship Act 1948, individuals who were naturalised "by means of fraud, false representation or the concealment of some material circumstances" or "who were not at the date on which he was registered or naturalised of good character" could be deprived of their citizenship.
The opinion suggests that Mr Ivan Polyukhovich, a suspected Nazi war criminal who was acquitted at trial in 1993, could have been deprived of his citizenship because he was naturalised on 28 May 1958 while the Act was not repealed until 8 October 1958.

 Kazimierz Naturalised Epistemology Workshop '06
The second half of the 20th Century has witnessed the rapid growth of an approach to epistemology that gives up on the idea of a first philosophy and argues for a close partnership with sciences such as biology, psychology, cognitive science, information theory and computing.
As a result of the cross-pollination of ideas, naturalised epistemology has come to include a great richness of methodologies and approaches.
Over the five days, the speakers will lead workshop groups that will focus on issues dealing with naturalised epistemology and arising out of their work.

It is the first time that there has been a Flora of these plants since H. Allan's "Handbook of the naturalised flora of New Zealand" in 1940.

Of the 397 native species involved many are described only briefly because they have been satisfactorily treated in earlier volumes, but others are more extensively dealt with and much new information is given about them.
