One thinks that could have been precised by the person, who put this
question! Why not do a minimum of researches before asking for help?
As usual, it is very difficult to know exactly what stupid point you
are trying to make, because your use of language is so poor. If your
only purpose in posting here is to demonstrate your illiteracy in a
range of languages, please realise that you have accomplished the task
admirably and desist from posting further flatulent gibberish.
As I said, I am perfectly aware of the Archduke's purported
renunciation on 31 May 1961, and of the fact that this was widely
treated as a legal move that did not affect his being seen as Head of
the House. And I am aware of the handover of the headship and
sovereignty of the Order of the Golden Fleece on 30 November 2000; I
have read Brook-Shepherd's excellent biography of the Archduke and I
have corresponded with HI&RH's secretary, so I am not entirely
ignorant of the situation.
However, the Archduke's official website states that he "handed over
his functions as Head of the House to his son on 1 January 2007". It
is not clear to me what this means - ie is it an abdication or a
regency?
I have not seen this fact commented on elsewhere; it certainly has not
made the papers in England, and I have not encountered any scholarly
works published since 1 January that might shed light on what it
actually means. Additionally, I thought it might be of interest to
members of this list.
If you can shed some light yourself, kindly do so; if you can't, shut
up and stop embarrassing yourself.
