World Leaders December 2017 Information as of 4 December 2017 has been used in preparation of this directory. PREFACE The Central Intelligence Agency publishes and updates the online directory of Chiefs of State and Cabinet Members of Foreign Governments weekly. The directory is intended to be used primarily as a reference aid and includes as many governments of the world as is considered practical, some of them not officially recognized by the United States. Regimes with which the United States has no diplomatic exchanges are indicated by the initials NDE. Governments are listed in alphabetical order according to the most commonly used version of each country's name. The spelling of the personal names in this directory follows transliteration systems generally agreed upon by US Government agencies, except in the cases in which officials have stated a preference for alternate spellings of their names. NOTE: Although the head of the central bank is listed for each country, in most cases he or she is not a Cabinet member. Ambassadors to the United States and Permanent Representatives to the UN, New York, have also been included. Key To Abbreviations Adm. Admiral Admin. Administrative, Administration Asst.

    BALOCH WOMEN IN LITERATURE Muhammad Panah Baloch1 Abstract Women play a very important role in human advancement and have a momentous place in the society. They are not at all poorer to men. They are capable of sharing all the everyday jobs of life. Man and woman have been rightly compared to the wheels of the same carriage. Women in Baloch society has been greatly overseen in the Baloch history but now is coming to a more standpoint to people. Milieu of Baloch realm Origin and history of Baloch is still not cleared by the historians till today and needs removal of dust from the narrations of history. Many of historian, travelers and frontier officers of late eighteen century have different opinion and perception about their origin and history. Potinger and Khanikoff advocates them Turkmen origin, Sir. B. Burton, Lassen, Spiegal and others favoured them as Iranian origin, Dr. Bellew put forward them Rajput origin and Sir. T.

  • ESPOP] Encuesta De Satisfacción Política Y Opinión Pública
    [#ESPOP] Encuesta de Satisfacción Política y Opinión Pública Febrero 2018 11 Metodología • Estos son hallazgos de la encuesta de satisfacción política y opinión pública de la Universidad de San Andrés. En total fueron realizadas 1001 entrevistas entre el 12 y el 23 de Febrero de 2018 a adultos de 18-64 años conectados a internet, en Argentina. • La encuesta se realiza en 23 provincias y la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires vía el Panel online de Netquest. La muestra es proporcional al tamaño de las provincias (con algunos ajustes para garantizar base de lectura) y representativa a nivel de las regiones. Las provincias fueron agrupadas en 5 regiones: NOA, NEA, Cuyo, Centro, Patagonia, y Buenos Aires dividida a su vez en CABA, GBA e interior de la Provincia de Buenos Aires. Se aplicaron cuotas de sexo, edad y nivel socioeconómico. • La encuesta versa sobre satisfacción con el desempeño de los poderes políticos y las políticas públicas y sobre la opinión respecto de los principales líderes políticos nacionales, grupos y sectores, ministros y gobernadores. Algunas preguntas siguen una serie de tiempo basada en la encuesta de Indicadores de Satisfacción Política Institucional (ISPI) realizada por la Universidad de San Andrés e Ipsos de Marzo de 2016 a Mayo de 2017. En la presente investigación se modificaron las escalas numéricas de satisfacción y opinion (antes de 1-10) por escalas ordinales de 4 categorías (dos positivas y dos negativas). Los valores de las series de tiempo fueron recategorizados para ser comparabales con las nuevas mediciones. • Cuando los resultados no sumen 100, puede deberse a redondeos computacionales,, respuestas múltiples o la exclusión de los que no saben o no contestan.

  • América Latina, Tecnocracia Y Centroderecha: ¿Es Posible Deducir Una Relación Inexorable Entre Estos Factores?
    América Latina, tecnocracia y centroderecha: ¿es posible deducir una relación inexorable entre estos factores? Autor: Andrés Carlos González Grobas Correo electrónico: [email protected] Institución: Facultad de Ciencias Sociales – Universidad de Buenos Aires Área temática: GI 09 – Estudios del Ejecutivo Aun cuando presidentes latinoamericanos de toda ideología han nombrado en altos cargos gubernamentales a economistas sin experiencia política, la creencia popular establece que sólo mandatarios de centroderecha optan por utilizar un recurso así. Consecuentemente, los actuales funcionarios argentinos y peruanos tienden a ser calificados mediante expresiones tales como “Gobierno de los CEO” o “Gabinete dominado por tecnócratas”. El trabajo que presentamos nos posibilitará analizar si el uso de la terminología mencionada se ajusta a la realidad. Para este propósito, siempre observando la clasificación elaborada por Dávila Avendaño (2010), estudiaremos las trayectorias académica y partidaria que hacen a aquellos asesores respectivamente nombrados por Mauricio Macri y Pedro Pablo Kuczynski. Recopilamos la información necesaria para desarrollar el presente escrito de enfoque descriptivo accediendo a fuentes secundarias, principalmente artículos periodísticos, revistas académicas y libros. Nuestra labor permitió indicar en el Perú una verdadera mayoría de ministros y secretarios tecnócratas, fenómeno que no se repite en la Argentina, donde gran cantidad de colaboradores presidenciales posee militancia política, candidaturas electorales

CONCLUDING REMARKS REFERENCES 1. INTRODUCTION The gist of the Government’s Investment Guidelines and Opportunities in Zimbabwe1 can be summed up by the title of the first chapter: “Towards a New Economic Order: Investment Policy Statement and Action Plan of the Government of Zimbabwe.” The guidelines promise investors an economic reform agenda based on a sound market economy in order to build a competitive private sector. The main policy thrusts also include the payment of compensation to commercial farmers, whose land was seized; a commitment to repay the government’s domestic and foreign debts; and respecting international obligations under Bilateral Investment Protection and Promotion Agreements (BIPPAs). Corruption, it avers, will be dealt with severely. These issues clearly illustrate that the economic fortunes of nations not only depend on the application of sound economic principles and public financial management; they are also inseparable from matters of politics and governance.

  • Intra-Party Democracy in the Zambian Polity1
    John Bwalya, Owen B. Sichone: REFRACTORY FRONTIER: INTRA-PARTY … REFRACTORY FRONTIER: INTRA-PARTY DEMOCRACY IN THE ZAMBIAN POLITY1 John Bwalya Owen B. Sichone Abstract: Despite the important role that intra-party democracy plays in democratic consolidation, particularly in third-wave democracies, it has not received as much attention as inter-party democracy. Based on the Zambian polity, this article uses the concept of selectocracy to explain why, to a large extent, intra-party democracy has remained a refractory frontier. Two traits of intra-party democracy are examined: leadership transitions at party president-level and the selection of political party members for key leadership positions. The present study of four political parties: United National Independence Party (UNIP), Movement for Multiparty Democracy (MMD), United Party for National Development (UPND) and Patriotic Front (PF) demonstrates that the iron law of oligarchy predominates leadership transitions and selection. Within this milieu, intertwined but fluid factors, inimical to democratic consolidation but underpinning selectocracy, are explained. Keywords: Intra-party Democracy, Leadership Transition, Ethnicity, Selectocracy, Third Wave Democracies Introduction Although there is a general consensus that political parties are essential to liberal democracy (Teorell 1999; Matlosa 2007; Randall 2007; Omotola 2010; Ennser-Jedenastik and Müller 2015), they often failed to live up to the expected democratic values such as sustaining intra-party democracy (Rakner and Svasånd 2013). As a result, some scholars have noted that parties may therefore not necessarily be good for democratic consolidation because they promote private economic interests, which are inimical to democracy and state building (Aaron 1 The authors gratefully acknowledge the comments from the editorial staff and anonymous reviewers.
