Since the introduction of the ethnic federal project in 1991, there have been wide-ranging claims especially by many Ethiopian intellectuals that the ethnic federal structure would collapse in a short time and the country could immerse into ethnic conflict. Despite these claims, however, the ethnic federal arrangement has survived for more than a decade. This short period of survival may not be enough to assure the continuation or sustainability of the system nevertheless it triggers an interest to understand how it has able to survive and also to engage in finding the possible explanations regarding the pattern and trend of the restructuring process. Thus, this study made a close exploration and examination of the process in order to determine whether ethnic federal formula in Ethiopia is an appropriate model to empower and equalize the diverse and disparate ethnic groups in the context of workable and united Ethiopia. ····· 1036120194

Uganda claims that the fragility and ineffective control of DRC by the past governments of Joseph Mobutu, Laurent Kabila and the current Kabila Joseph made it inevitable for Uganda to intervene on DRC territory to secure Uganda s boarders. It highlights that Uganda s intervention was military occupation but it changed to support of paramilitary groups, whom it tries to rely on to secure the Eastern DRC boarder territory against Ugandan hostile groups like the ADF and LRA rebels. Conclusively, the book notes that Uganda s interference in the DRC had been undermined by ever emerging irreconcilable interests between actors that were involved in the conflict, amidst weak state institutions of the DRC. ····· 1036120025

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray For decades governments have tried to respond effectively to political organizations which use terrorism to obtain their goals. In recent years the quest for the right response has become more urgent as the insurgent groups have evolved to become more internationally based and supported and have better access to weapons. The threat by these terrorist groups has become larger for the international community. The approach towards these insurgent groups differ from every conflict and context and sometimes even within the same conflict and context. One of the most intriguing cases is the international community s response to the insurgent groups of Fatah/PLO in the late 1980 s and early 1990 s and Hamas nowadays. While Fatah and Hamas have a lot of resemblance, especially in their early stages of existence, the approach towards these organizations nearly contradict each other. Where Fatah was included and engaged with, Hamas is shunned from all political arena s. This analysis diagnoses the problems surrounding the recognition of Hamas by the Dutch government and the role that concepts of legitimacy play. ····· 1036119604

Although the number of states with NWs today is not as high as it was initially estimated yet it seems that there is a constant struggle going on between nuclear weapons states (NWSs) and non-nuclear weapon states (NNWSs). NWSs are strongly following the notion of stopping the spread of NWSs to other states and are making efforts to convince NNWSs to get rid of their attempts to obtain the nuclear technology. The negotiation on Fissile Material Cut off Treaty (FMCT) is such an effort. However, a number of NNWSs have adopted the path of nuclearization despite all obstacles. Pakistan, as a de-facto NWS, has particular issues with FMCT which are explored in detail throughout this book. These concerns briefly relate Pakistan s classical standing regarding India as the arch rival in the South Asia region that compels Pakistan to get engaged in arms race. So, book provides an analysis of challenges and options available to Pakistan. ····· 1036119536

It was for this reason that the study was based entirely on those family members left behind their experiences, struggles, opinions and most importantly, their voices needed to be given a chance to be heard when dealing with the issue of Egyptian migration. This study reviewed the reasons as to why Egyptians decide to migrate, as well as the impacts that this decision had on the family that remained behind.

The book argues that the legal recognition of indigenous electoral institutions was a response by the PRI regime to concrete challenges to its hegemony in Oaxaca, where it faced the threat of indigenous radicalism and the growing deterioration of its own electoral supremacy. These threats were reflections of a wider and incremental process of erosion of the PRI regime s legitimacy in the state. The book further argues that the legalisation of indigenous electoral institutions was part of a broader PRI strategy to restore its eroded legitimacy in Oaxaca. ····· 1036119147

The study argues that Britain, France and Germany affect the EU sanction policy on China through bottom-up and horizontal Europeanization due to their historic and strategic ties to the PRC and their predominance in the armament industry. The study specifically reviews the case of the handling of the lift of the arms embargo between 2003 and 2005, imposed on the wake of the Tiananmen Square Massacre in 1989. The methodology combines a questionnaire, addressed to defense and foreign affairs officials from the three member states and EU officials, press articles, interviews and speeches and applies three theories about responses to Europeanization.

They expand their networks not regionally but trans-nationally to spread their mission over the world. Although most of the international ENGOs (IENGOs) originate from the North their work is mainly established in the South. Nevertheless, those Northern IENGOs facilitate the Southern local ENGOs in the process of environmental politics in particular to political transformation. The IENGOs have helped the local NGOs in their struggles with environmental justice in some of the Southeast Asian countries such as the Philippines and China. The result of campaign varies from place to place even when initiated by the same IENGOs in the case of China and the Philippines. This paper compares different structures of IENGOs networks in the Philippines and China. The varying structures of NGO networks do imply that the IENGOs should have different strategies for the various countries under globalization. ····· 1036118847

However, to become a member of the European family , countries have to go through a long process of transformation of domestic structures. This process could bring along important structural changes in potential candidate states, which are without membership perspective hardly to reach. This book explores whether the EU has an influence on political and economic domestic developments through membership conditionality in a potential candidate state. Moreover, the role of domestic characteristics and actors in the process is taken into consideration. It seems that the political elite, characterized by short term interest, polarisation and corruption, withholds Albania from further progress on the political and economic Copenhagen criteria. Identification with the European Union seems to be the main driver for transformation. However, national interests of political elites, based on a rational choice, undermine the domestic developments in Albania. These national interests do not only affect the integration process, but also the development of Albania itself. ····· 1036118747
für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray The phrase a culture of silence is attributed to Jerry Rawlings in the late 1980s, at a time when he was military head of state in Ghana. In a culture of silence the masses are mute, that is, they are prohibited from taking part in the transformation of their society. In a neo-colonial state, a culture of silence is imposed on the masses and peace and order are guaranteed by ferocious repression. The basic premise that motivates this research is that the neo-colonial state, a by-product of the colonial state was influential in imposing the culture of silence and fear in the lives of ordinary people. As such, a defining feature of the neo-colonial state, it is argued, is a culture of silence . Definitions and analysis of the neo-colonial state follow lines of arguments put forward by African writes such as Claude Ake, Ngugi wa Thiong o and Mahmood Mamdani. Within this broad paradigm of neo-colonialism, and analysis of Banda s Malawi is developed which pays particular attention to a culture of silence . This in turn leads to an examination of the effect of liberalization on political and civic space in Malawi. ····· 1036118682

In the Malaysian Civil Service, the practices of performance pay was first introduced in 1991 under the implementation of the New Remuneration System (NRS). The system gave paramount emphasis in the aspect of performance, thus marked a paradigm shift in the Malaysian compensation practices. The MRS which was introduced in 2002 continued to weigh in the performance aspect as the main indicator in evaluating employees` achievement. Objective assessment of employees` performance has been developed through the implementation of Competency Level Assessment (CLA). It tries to build linkage between pay and performance, hence pay is believed to be a source of motivation. An attempt, therefore has been made to assess the degree of effectiveness of the MRS in strengthening the pay-performance link in the Malaysian government. ····· 1036118658

The conference was a response of the military government to the demands for the restructuring of the federal system with a view to stimulating stable polity. Deliberations at the conference clearly showed that the Nigerian polity, nay its federal structure lacked the requisite political strength capable of stimulating stability over a long time. The study discovered that centralisation of power engendered by prolonged impaired stable federal system. The Nigerian state stood on a political platform of ethnic hostility with a pronounced fear of domination. The study concludes that restructuring through devolution of powers to the component units remains a more veritable starting point to redefine the Nigerian federal system. The components units should be restructured to accommodate either the immediate post independence arrangement of three regional or six regional structures. ····· 1036118596

The study employs a qualitative research method to go deep into the underlying logic of the theory. In an endeavor to tackle the matter at hand, five criteria of analysis are employed to examine the merits and demerits in specific areas of the theory. This involves looking at the structure of the theory, the period of the emergence of capitalism, the unit of analysis, the coherence of the arguments and processes of the theory and the reliability of the world-systems theory in contemporary world politics. The five criteria used proved that the theory is reliable when used to explain three themes in world politics,these are global inequality, dependency and sovereignty. ····· 1036118379
für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray This book explores the integration process of Somali Refugees in the Netherlands, through the lens of social capital. It has a strong social relevance, due to the uniqueness of the explorations accomplished and the fact that it approaches one of the most complex refugee group, using an original analytic framework of three generations of refugees newcomers, beginners and leaders- and three components of social capital bonds and bridges, trust and capacity building-. The research offers an insightful understanding of how social capital evolves, as seen from the experience of those who struggle with learning how to cope with the challenges of integration. It comes to acknowledge the importance of promoting social capital, as organizational strengthening may form more self-reliable and autonomous communities and less overloaded governments. Ultimately it states that, although incrementally and path-dependent, refugees can obtain better results when they work together and engage in cooperative relations, than when they only rely on individual resources. The analysis should be especially useful for policy makers, organizations and researchers in the field of refugee studies. ····· 1036118234· 1 · ::::: · 29 ·· 30 ·· 31 ·· 32 ·· 33 ·· 34 ·· 35 · ::::: · 41 ·
