Do you think the human rights situation in s Dasain approaches there are indications that both sides will Nepal has improved or deteriorated in the when things seem most hopeless past one year? observe an unofficial festival truce, but prospects of peace A talks to resolve the conflict are more remote than ever. A purported statement from the Maoists declaring a Dasain-Tihar ceasefire on Tuesday turned out to be a hoax. Rebel spokesman Krishna Bahadur Mahara set the record straight by dashing off an e- statement, but that was followed on Wednesday by another release purportedly signed by Prachanda saying the original statement was correct and action would be taken against Mahara. Analysts do not rule out the possibility of army disinformation at work, and see signs of a rift in the Maoist hierarchy following the groups plenum in Dang last month which reportedly rejected peace talks for now. The meeting was followed by strident anti-Indian rhetoric and an intriguing silence on the part of Baburam Bhattarai, who is said to have favoured a softer line on India. The contradictions between central-level statements about links to fraternal parties and recent attacks on the leftist United Peoples Front in the mid-west hint at a breakdown in control. While the leadership calls on UN mediation, grassroots militia defy international condemnation of forced recruitment of school students, abduction of a Unicef staffer and looting of WFP aid. -
INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background 1.1.1 National Population And
CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background By the dictates of their profession, military personnel are particularly vulnerable to engagement in casual sex with non – regular partners and at a higher risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections (including HIV) than the general population. Their frequent mobility, nvolvement in international peace keeping operations, patronage of commercial sex workers makes them more at risk. The higher vulnerability to pre/extramarital sex and HIV/AIDS could probably also be attributed to the fact that, globally, the military cu ture, at least until recently, had traditionally fostered the habit of heavy smoking, high alcohol consumption and increased risk taking (UNAIDS, 2006). Military personnel have average expendable income which can be abused to purchase sex from women in the surrounding areas especially when they are deployed in operations away from their homes. This provides circumstances in which they are likely to engage in casual sex, posing a big risk for HIV infection. The military implies a combat force of men and women w take up the challenge of voluntarily being trained as officers and soldiers to perform the titutional duty of defending the nation from external and internal aggression (ZDF 2006). As Abel (1998) puts it, military organizations are anchors of national security, nation building, and good governance, and are indispensable in national and international peace and humanitarian relief operations. 1.1.1 National population and military profile The Zambian military and other sectors of the security force constitute a reasonable size of the adult overall population and an important pool of human resource. Military personnel in the armed forces constitute about 10 percent of the Zambian government work force (ZDF 2007). -

Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2018 Ruling nature, controlling people: nature conservation, development and war in North-Eastern Namibia since the 1920s Lenggenhager, Luregn Abstract: Recent nature conservation initiatives in Southern Africa such as communal conservancies and peace parks are often embedded in narratives of economic development and ecological research. They are also increasingly marked by militarisation and violence. In Ruling Nature, Controlling People, Luregn Lenggenhager shows that these features were also characteristic of South African rule over the Caprivi Strip region in North-Eastern Namibia, especially in the fields of forestry, fisheries and, ulti- mately, wildlife conservation. In the process, the increasingly internationalised war in the region from the late 1960s until Namibia’s independence in 1990 became intricately interlinked with contemporary nature conservation, ecology and economic development projects. By retracing such interdependencies, Lenggenhager provides a novel perspective from which to examine the history of a region which has until now barely entered the focus of historical research. He thereby highlights the enduring relevance of the supposedly peripheral Caprivi and its military, scientific and environmental histories for efforts to develop a deeper understanding of the ways in which apartheid South Africa exerted state power.
