Research Assistant ABOUT THE STANFORD LAW SCHOOL POLICY LAB Engagement in public policy is a core mission of teaching and research at Stanford Law School (SLS). The Law and Policy Lab (The Policy Lab) offers students an immersive experience in finding solutions to some of the world’s most pressing issues. Under the guidance of seasoned faculty advisers, Policy Lab students counsel real-world clients in an array of areas, including education, global governance, transnational law enforcement, intellectual property, policing and technology, and energy policy. Policy labs address policy problems for real clients, using analytic approaches that supplement traditional legal analysis. The clients may be local, state, federal and international public agencies or officials, or private non-profit entities such as NGOs and foundations. Typically, policy labs assist clients in deciding whether and how qualitative and/or quantitative empirical evidence can be brought to bear to better understand the nature or magnitude of their particular policy problem and identify and assess policy options. The methods may include comparative case studies, population surveys, stakeholder interviews, experimental methods, program evaluation or big data science, and a mix of qualitative and quantitative analysis.

  • The Federal Government's Second Report on the Global Status Of
    The Federal Government’s Second Report on the Global Status of Freedom of Religion Reporting period 2018 – 2019 The wooden structure 7.5 metres high known as the “Ring for Peace” stands in the Luitpoldpark in Lindau on Lake Constance. It was erected to commemorate the 10th World Assembly of the NGO Religions for Peace in August 2019. Gisbert Baarmann, the sculptor who created the artwork, integrated 36 different kinds of wood from all over the world into it. The meeting in the Allgäu region in southern Germany brought together some 900 representatives of religious faiths from around 100 countries. © picture alliance / dpa / Carolin Gißibl 2 Federal Government Commissioner for Global Freedom of Religion and Member of the German Parliament, Markus Grübel. © RFB Dear readers, When an argument developed between a Christian agricultural worker and her co-workers in June 2009, little did she know that everything would change for her from that day. What happened next in that province in South Asia was to determine her life from that moment on and have massive repercussions worldwide. On the day in question, her fellow workers told her she was “un- clean” because of her faith. An argument ensued, in the course of which she was accused of blasphemy. It was claimed that she had insulted the Prophet Muhammad. In the days that followed, she was threatened by a mob and then arrested by the police and charged with blasphemy. In 2010, she was sentenced to death. When, years later, the sentence was overturned, protests erupted. Protesters called for the sentence to be upheld and the worker put to death.

  • Review: Nusret Istanbul (Aka the Salt Bae Restaurant) When My Cousin Suggested Fifteen of Us Go to Nusret Istanbul (I.E
    Review: Nusret Istanbul (Aka The Salt Bae Restaurant) When my cousin suggested fifteen of us go to Nusret Istanbul (i.e. home of Salt Bae) at 11:30 PM, my first thought was, “Ugh. Why?” Convinced it was a tourist trap, I did not want to go there 30 minutes before closing. Or even worse – actually sit down and eat at a place made famous by a meme. But I was outnumbered and hungry, so I tagged along…and returned a few days later. Background on Nusret (AKA Salt Bae) You may not have heard of Nusret, but chances are you’ve come across the Salt Bae meme. It went viral two years ago when butcher, chef, and owner Nusret Gökçe began getting attention for his unique approach to preparing and serving steak. Some of it is borderline pornographic if you ask me. His signature move is the salt sprinkle. Every table has a bowl of Maldon sea salt, so guests can recreate the move. Nusret Istanbul Nusret’s flagship Istanbul steakhouse is located in the Besiktas area, on a street lined with trendy restaurants. While the exterior looks unremarkable, the interior is pretty stunning. It has kind of a classy bistro vibe. There is a kitschy little souvenir counter to the left of the entrance, selling Salt Bae t-shirts and swag. To the right is the butcher counter, where all the meat is on display. Behind that is the kitchen. The main dining room is pretty nice: Simple, trendy and backed by a glass wall separating the outdoor seating area.

    Privatschule der Deutschen Botschaft Ankara Ernst-Reuter-Schule NEWCOMERBROSCHÜRE 2020-2021 HERZLICH WILLKOMMEN IN ANKARA Hoş Geldiniz! Ankara - Hauptstadt der modernen Türkei Ankara, seit dem 13. Oktober 1923 die Hauptstadt der Türkei, liegt in Zentralanatoli- en. Historisch bekannt als Angora, ist Ankara heute die zweitgrößte Stadt der Türkei mit einer Bevölkerungszahl von ca. 5,4 Millionen. Im Jahr 1923 hatte Ankara etwa 30.000 Einwohner, 50 Jahre später 1,5 Mio. 1980 wurden 2,3 Mio. Einwohner gezählt. Im Jahr 2008 zählte die Stadt 4 Mio. Einwohner. Keine Stadtverwaltung hätte bei diesem Wachstum die Chance, im Bereich der Infra- struktur (Straßenbau, Strom-und Wasserversorgung etc.) mit dieser Entwicklung Schritt zu halten. Die Wasserversorgung stellt für die Millionenstadt mit halbtrocke- nem Kontinentalklima das schwierigste Problem dar, das aber durch das Anlegen von Stauseen, die zugleich heute auch Naherholungsgebiete sind, gelöst werden konnte. Ankara erstreckt sich über viele Hügel und Berge, tiefe, schluchtartige Täler gliedern das Stadtbild. Die Hauptstadt der Türkei liegt auf einer Höhe zwischen 850 m und 1200 m, im Bereich der Wasserscheide des südlich gelegenen Elma Daği. In Ankara herrscht kontinentales Klima vor mit heißen, trockenen Sommern (Tempe- raturwerte von 35-40°C, der Temperaturdurchschnitt liegt bei 30°C) und kalten Win- tern mit Schneefall (Temperaturen im Minusgradbereich können sogar bis -20°C in den Keller gehen, aber der Durchschnittswert liegt bei -4°C). Regenfälle gibt es meist im Frühjahr oder Herbst. Der Flughafen ESB findet sich im Norden der Stadt, ca. 25 km von der ERS, der Stadtteil Ulus ist das historische Zentrum, in dem die Zitadelle zu finden ist.
