It will be the first such summit since 2000, and only the second the two countries have ever held. See article Pakistan's president, General Pervez Musharraf, contemplated imposing a state of emergency. His government cited the threat from Islamist extremists. But critics say he wants to curb the power of the judiciary. See article After unusually severe monsoon flooding in South Asia, the United Nations AP gave warning that, with 28m people directly affected, millions faced risks to their health from a lack of clean water. See article In Timor-Leste, President José Ramos-Horta invited Xanana Gusmão, his predecessor and a hero of the resistance to Indonesian rule, to become prime minister. Fretilin, the outgoing ruling party and still the largest force in parliament, could not forge a majority coalition following elections in June. It rejected the president's decision as illegal. See article With a televised extravaganza in Tiananmen Square, China's government celebrated the beginning of the one-year countdown to next year's Beijing Olympics. The date was also marked by protests from Tibetans, journalists and dissidents. Meanwhile, concerns were raised about the potential effects of the city's choking air pollution on athletes. See article The upper house of Japan's Diet (parliament) named as its president Satsuki Eda of the Democratic Party of Japan, following the defeat of the Liberal Democratic Party in elections last month. It is the first time an opposition party has taken control of the upper house since the LDP came to power in 1955. Zoologists failed to find a Yangtze River dolphin during a survey of the creature's historic range, the first likely extinction of a large vertebrate in 50 years. Other scientists discovered a species of bat, rodent, two types of shrews and two new frogs in the Democratic Republic of Congo. On the brink of collapse Poland's government wobbled again. Self-Defence, a junior coalition partner, said it would pull out of the coalition with the ruling Law and Justice Party. Meanwhile, the Law and Justice prime minister, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, sacked the interior minister. It was suggested that an early election might be on the cards. Georgia complained volubly about a Russian missile that it said had been dropped by Russian aircraft into a field near the breakaway Georgian republic of South Ossetia. The Russians said the Georgians must have dropped the bomb themselves. See article Turkey's prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, met his Iraqi counterpart, Nuri AFP al-Maliki, in Ankara, and secured Mr Maliki's agreement to do more to uproot Kurdish PKK terrorists from northern Iraq. Yet since Mr Maliki has little power in northern Iraq, the Turkish army is still pressing to invade and do the job itself. A labour court halted a planned national rail strike in Germany, on the ground that it would be disruptive to holiday-makers. But the threat of a strike over rail-workers' claim for a 31% pay rise remains. Divided they fall In Lebanon, pro- and anti-government parties each claimed wins in a by- election to fill two parliamentary seats left vacant by political assassinations over the past year. The more hotly contested, in a largely Christian district, saw the pro-government former president, Amin Gemayel, lose by a hair to a challenger from a party allied to Hizbullah, a result that underlined divisions among Lebanon's Christians without strengthening either side. Five Iraqi MPs announced

  • A Regulação Da Radiodifusão Na Venezuela: Um Estudo Sobre As Mudanças Ocorridas No Governo Chávez1
    A regulação da radiodifusão na Venezuela: Um estudo sobre as mudanças ocorridas no governo Chávez1 Rodrigo BRAZ ABSTRACT. This paper aims to study the current mode of regulation of broadcasting in Venezuela, observing the changes that occured in this section after 1999, when Hugo Chávez became president of the country. So, we tried to show how the ancient mode of regulation was managed according the interests of the ruling class and following only some commercials objectives, realizing a concentrated and unruled media scene. Aftermost, it was analyzed the changes that happened in Chavez’ government and with this answer, through regulations and media policies, garantee the hegemony of the ‘Bolivarianos’ ideals. Keywords: broadcasting, mode of regulation, Venezuela, communication. INTRODUÇÃO O processo de reestruturação capitalista que se iniciou da década de 1970 representou para os setores de telecomunicações e de radiodifusão o reposicionamento do Estado, a formação de novas maneiras e instâncias de regulação, internacionalização e incremento da concorrência. Neste sentido, o Estado progressivamente se afasta da atividade econômica direta e altera qualitativamente a regulamentação, que foi redirecionada ao fortalecimento dos mercados. De modo geral, o Estado passa de uma linha intervencionista, de produtor de bens e serviços e controlador dos ciclos econômicos, para uma posição de repassador ao mercado de grande parte das suas atividades, afastando-se também em grande medida da sua função fiscalizadora. Contudo, a regulamentação que emerge não representa uma eliminação do papel do Estado, mas o seu (re)posicionamento no sentido de garantir a hegemonia da classe dominante, o que gera alterações no modo de regulação e na estrutura dos mercados em cada país.

  • Venezuela: for Sale to the Highest Bidder?
    Venezuela: for sale to the highest bidder? The Bolivarian revolution led by Hugo Chavez from 1999, opened a new chapter in the global struggle for social justice. For anti-capitalists across the world, his ‘21st century socialism’ pointed ahead to a new kind of power, defined in the Bolivarian Constitution as “participativa y protagonista” – a participatory democracy in which the people were the active subjects. It is hard to reconcile that hope with the realities of Venezuela today. The spokespersons of the new State continue to proclaim their revolutionary credentials. Yet they oversee a society in profound and worsening crisis, where hunger has reappeared in a country which just four years ago was congratulated by the U.N. for its virtual elimination of extreme poverty. The right wing media – nationally and internationally – have taken great delight in publishing photographs of food queues marshalled and overseen by armed National Guards. The supporters of Chavismo instinctively refuse to believe the images. But the social crisis they symbolize is real. An economy in crisis The levels of inflation in Venezuela have reached catastrophic proportions. The annual figure for 2015 was over 300% and in 2016, even official sources recognize that it is approaching 600% or more. Translated into real lives, it means that a basket of basic goods and services for a family is now calculated at 400,000 bolivars– set against average wages of around 60,000. The government responds by pointing to the fair prices it regularly announces. But in reality the basic products to which those fair prices are attached are rarely available, and it is even less likely that they will be sold at those prices.
