Download or read book From Blood Diamonds to the Kimberley Process written by Dr Franziska Bieri and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-03-28 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1990s, several non-governmental organizations (NGOs) focused world attention on the issue of conflict diamonds which funded wars, massive death, and refugee crises across Central and West Africa. Several governments, NGOs, and key industry players engaged in negotiations under the so-called Kimberley Process (KP). A voluntary global agreement came into effect leading to a substantial decline in illicit diamond trade. Despite its importance in international affairs, the KP remains understudied in academia. Franziska Bieri's book provides the first comprehensive account of the KP and is the first to reveal how NGOs have become critical actors in their own right, possessing the ability to directly influence policies and to participate in the decision making and the implementation of global agreements. In developing this argument, Bieri explains: why the NGO campaign to raise awareness was successful; why a rapid and comprehensive resolution on such a complex global problem was possible; how the tripartite negotiations between states, NGOs, and industry developed during the implementation of the agreement, which is an on-going process. Based on extensive personal interviews with prominent campaigners, leading bureaucrats, and industry officials, hundreds of KP publications, official UN documents, industry news, and NGO reports, this timely book allows for a much needed engagement in contemporary debates about the campaign against conflict diamonds, the Kimberley Process, and the themes defining today's global governance arena.

You are overwhelmed trying to fit so much into your life that the thought of taking on one more task sends you into a downward spiral of stress. You're short tempered and impatient with so many people and activities during your day. You've forgotten how to laugh, joke or kid around with your friends and family. You crave sweet or salty foods. You feel you can't afford to take a day off, that all your activities and the people around you are more important than you are. You've gained a lot (or lost a lot) of weight because you were eating without paying attention to what you were eating OR you forgot to eat. You seem to suffer from colds and the sniffles way too often or have a lot of body pain such as lower back or joint pain. It's chronic and the doctor can't seem to find any physical cause. You don't recover easily. You have a major illness or high blood pressure, high cholesterol and other "middle age" conditions. You suffer a lot of headaches. Things that didn't used to bother you drive you crazy now. You are sensitive to sounds, especially if there are two or three of them, like the radio, conversation and background sounds. You can't figure out why you've hit a roadblock in your life. After all, you're working hard to get ahead. Your current behavior is causing your relationships to deteriorate.

It's also about how you treat yourself and what you tell yourself every day. When you look at it this way, it's really all about energy management, which is what this book describes. Small adjustments in your day, your interactions with your environment, others, or yourself can add up to big positive effects on your internal stress levels. Here, you'll discover small simple adjustment techniques that add up to major improvements in your life.
