This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes the compilation of the first truly comprehensive database on gross government debt-to-GDP ratios, covering nearly the entire IMF membership (174 countries) and spanning an exceptionally long time period. The database was constructed by bringing together a number of other datasets and information from original sources. For the most recent years, the data are linked to the IMF World Economic Outlook (WEO) database to facilitate regular updates. The paper discusses the evolution of debt-to-GDP ratios across country groups for several decades, episodes of debt spikes and reversals, and a pattern of negative correlation between debt and growth.

Download or read book Rebels and Robbers written by Assis Malaquias and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebels and Robbers is about the political economy of violence in post-colonial Angola. This book provides the first comprehensive attempt at analyzing how the military and non-military dynamics of more than four decades of conflict created the structural violence that stubbornly defines Angolan society even in the absence of war. The book clearly demonstrates that the end of the civil war has not ushered in positive peace. The focus on structural violence enables the author to explore the continuities since colonial times, especially in the ways race, class, ethnicity, and power have been used by governing elites as mechanisms to oppress the powerless. Thus, although corruption as structural violence manifesting itself so ubiquitously in Angola today may have been taken to new levels after independence, its origin is unmistakably colonial. Similarly, the zero-sum character of political interactions that defined colonial Angola is yet to be fully exorcized. But there are also important discontinuities. The unabashed propensity to capture public resources for personal aggrandizement is purely post-colonial. So is the tendency toward personal, unaccountable rule. Given its rich endowments, the end of the civil war provides Angola with an opportunity to finally realize its developmental potential. This will depend on whether the wealth resulting from the exploration of natural resources is directed toward creating the conditions for the citizens " realization of their aspirations for the good life thus ensuring sustainable peace. This book will be valuable to academics, practitioners, and the general public interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the political economy of violence in Africa and, more specifically, the interplay between violence, wealth and power in Angola.
Download or read book Detention and Its Alternatives Under International Law written by Lorna McGregor and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In theory, international law provides a clear framework for ensuring the rarity of detention by either characterising a detention practice as inherently arbitrary or treating it as a measure of last resort. However, some critics have argued that international law prioritises procedural safeguards, leaving the international law on the legitimacy, necessity, and proportionality of detention and its alternatives underdeveloped. Detention and its Alternatives under International Law analyses the current state of the international law on detention and its alternatives within national law and policy. It addresses armed conflict, counterterrorism, criminal justice, mental health, migration, public health, and social care. The book discusses a number of topics such as: shortcomings in how international law addresses structural inequality and discrimination; the level of scrutiny applied to the evidence supporting decisions to detain; and the availability and proportionality of alternatives to detention and their compatibility with human rights. All chapters analyse how new and emerging technologies affect decisions to detain, as well as the nature of alternatives to detention. Without conflating different forms of detention, the book proposes key means of making detention a true measure of last resort. Detention and its Alternatives under International Law will be a valuable resource to practitioners and scholars working on the right to liberty or the underlying policy areas in which detention is employed as a tool.
Download or read book Culture and Customs of Namibia written by Anene Ejikeme and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-07-22 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of the history, culture, and society of Namibia, a country on which little information in English exists. Namibia is a sizeable and significant country in southern Africa that is little known to the outside world. A vast country of startling beauty with a storied history, including one of the world's worst genocides and a war of independence that lasted nearly a quarter century, this "land between two deserts" is a fascinating result of its African, German, and English influences. Culture and Customs of Namibia is one of very few English language works written about Namibia's history, culture, and society. The book reveals details about Namibian daily life, gender relations, modern youth culture, and the influence of traditional cultures that allow readers to appreciate this country's unique character. A section on tourism explains how Namibia—an extremely arid country with an immense number and diversity of wildlife—is on the cutting edge of ecotourism.

Download or read book Pan Africanism Political Philosophy and Socio Economic Anthropology for African Liberation and Governance written by Kini-Yen Kinni and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2015-09-23 with total page 728 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Book is the outcome of a long project begun thirty years ago. It is a book on the makings of pan-Africanism through the predicaments of being black in a world dominated by being white. The book is a tribute and celebration of the efforts of the African-American and African-Caribbean Diaspora who took the initiative and the audacity to fight and liberate themselves from the shackles of slavery. It is also a celebration of those Africans who in their own way carried the torch of inspiration and resilience to save and reconstruct the Free Humanism of Africa. As a story of the rise from the shackles of slavery and poverty to the summit of Victors of their Renaissance Identity and Self-Determination as a People, the book is the story of African refusal to celebrate victimhood. The book also situates women as central actors in the Pan-African project, which is often presented as an exclusively masculine endeavour. It introduces a balanced gender approach and diagnosis of the Women actors of Pan-Africanism which was very much lacking. The problem of balkanisation of Africa on post-colonial affiliations and colonial linguistic lines has taken its toll on Africas building of its common identity and personality. The result is that Africans are more remote to each other in their pigeon-hole-nation-states which put more restrictions for African inter-mobility, coupled by education and cultural affiliations, the communication and transportation and trading networks which are still tied more to their colonial masters than among themselves. This book looks into the problem of the new wave of Pan-Africanism and what strategies that can be proposed for a more participatory Pan-Africanism inspired by the everyday realities of African masses at home and in the diaspora. This book is the first book of its kind that gives a comprehensive and multidimensional coverage of Pan-Africanism. It is a very timely and vital compendium.
