    PROCLAMATION 5621—MAR. 20, 1987 101 STAT. 2091 with protection of national security and rights of privacy. As we celebrate free access to information as part of our heritage, let us honor the memory of President Madison for the wisdom and the devotion to the liberty of the American people that were his credo and his way of life. The Congress, by Public Law 99-539, has designated March 16, 1987, as "Freedom of Information Day" and authorized and requested the President to issue a proclamation in observance of this event. NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim March 16, 1987, as Freedom of Information Day, and I call upon the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate programs and activities. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this sixteenth day of March, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-seven, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and eleventh. RONALD REAGAN Proclamation 5621 of March 20,1987 Afghanistan Day, 1987 By the President of the United States of America A Proclamation The people of Afghanistan traditionally celebrate March 21 as the start of their new year. For the friends of the Afghan people, the date has another meaning: it is an occasion to reaffirm publicly our long-standing support of the Afghan struggle for freedom. That struggle seized the attention of the world in December 1979 when a massive Soviet force invaded, murdered one Marxist ruler, installed another, and attempted to crush a widespread resistance movement.

  • The Socioeconomics of State Formation in Medieval Afghanistan
    The Socioeconomics of State Formation in Medieval Afghanistan George Fiske Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 George Fiske All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Socioeconomics of State Formation in Medieval Afghanistan George Fiske This study examines the socioeconomics of state formation in medieval Afghanistan in historical and historiographic terms. It outlines the thousand year history of Ghaznavid historiography by treating primary and secondary sources as a continuum of perspectives, demonstrating the persistent problems of dynastic and political thinking across periods and cultures. It conceptualizes the geography of Ghaznavid origins by framing their rise within specific landscapes and histories of state formation, favoring time over space as much as possible and reintegrating their experience with the general histories of Iran, Central Asia, and India. Once the grand narrative is illustrated, the scope narrows to the dual process of monetization and urbanization in Samanid territory in order to approach Ghaznavid obstacles to state formation. The socioeconomic narrative then shifts to political and military specifics to demythologize the rise of the Ghaznavids in terms of the framing contexts described in the previous chapters. Finally, the study specifies the exact combination of culture and history which the Ghaznavids exemplified to show their particular and universal character and suggest future paths for research.

A. Pugachenkova) The arrival of the Arabs When the Arabs arrived in Khurasan and Transoxania they found few towns. The popula- tion lived mainly in the countryside, where there were scattered estates with the fortified kushks (castles) of major and minor dihqan¯ (land-owner)-suzerains and adjacent settle- ments. The ancient towns had either shrunk in size (Samarkand, Merv, Termez, Balkh) or been abandoned. The new towns were few in number, and small (Panjikent). Warfare was rife in the seventh and eighth centuries and, as a consequence, there was a general decline in building activity. This situation only changed in the ninth century, when the sphere of influence of the caliphate finally took in the countries of Central Asia and Islam became solidly established.

  • Livelihood Trajectories in Afghanistan: Evidence from Three Villages in Herat Province
    Researching livelihoods and services affected by conflict Livelihood trajectories in Afghanistan: evidence from three villages in Herat Province Working Paper 54 Danielle Huot, Adam Pain and Ihsanullah Ghafoori December 2016 Funded by the EC About us Secure Livelihoods Research Consortium (SLRC) aims to generate a stronger evidence base on how people make a living, educate their children, deal with illness and access other basic services in conflict-affected situations. Providing better access to basic services, social protection and support to livelihoods matters for the human welfare of people affected by conflict, the achievement of development targets such as the Sustainable Development Goals and international efforts at peace- and state-building. At the centre of SLRC’s research are three core themes, developed over the course of an intensive one- year inception phase: § State legitimacy: experiences, perceptions and expectations of the state and local governance in conflict-affected situations § State capacity: building effective states that deliver services and social protection in conflict- affected situations § Livelihood trajectories and economic activity under conflict The Overseas Development Institute (ODI) is the lead organisation. SLRC partners include the Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA) in Sri Lanka, Feinstein International Center (FIC, Tufts University), the Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit (AREU), the Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI) in Pakistan, Disaster Studies of Wageningen University (WUR) in the Netherlands, the Nepal Centre for Contemporary Research (NCCR), and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

    Vat. 4i3) 1972 93 Mosquitoes of Afghanistan - An Annotated Checklist Ronald A. Ward Department of Entomology Walter Reed Army Institute of Research Washington, D, C. 20012 As late as 1949 there was no information concerning the mosquito fauna of Afghanistan. This is borne out by Beklemishev's statement in Boyd's "Malariology" that data concerning the An.heles--- of Afghanistan and Central Asia are comphetely lacking (I_>+ ?% is true that publications as early as 1943 did contain keys for the identification of the anophelines of this nation, but these were based upon information from Indian and Iranian collections (9). Anopheles superetus<-_- Grassi was the first mosquito to be definitely retarded from Afghanistan. Larvae of this species were rollected by K, Lindberg, a Swedish physician with strong interests in tropical medicine and zoology, durSng May - June 1947 in the northern portion of the country (7). During 1959, Dr. Lindberg collected several eulicine species which were identified by P, F, Mattinglye These were deposited in the British Museum (Natural History). Various entomologists affiliated with the World Health Organization have surveyed the anopheline iauna beginning in 1949 (3,6,8 and 10). Certain of their specimens were later submitted to the British Museum for identification by J, A, Reid, The anophelines were discussed in a geo- medical survey of Afghanistan conducted by Professor L, Fischer, an epidemiologist from Tiibigen, Germany (4), This review was based upon a literature survey, his personal observations and records of the Afghan Malaria Institute, During 1968 and 1.970, the Geographical Epidemiology Unit from the Johms Hopkins University School.
