BELARUS: RELIGIOUS FREEDOM SURVEY, OCTOBER 20201 By Olga Glace, Forum 18 Belarus correspondent Before the UN Human Rights Council Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of Belarus on 2 November, Forum 18 notes continuing violations of freedom of religion and belief and of interlinked freedoms of expression, association, and assembly. These have worsened amid widespread continuing protests against falsified results of the August 2020 presidential election, and against the regime's other serious violations of the human rights of the people it rules. After the regime's falsification of the August 2020 presidential election results and violence against people taking part in the ongoing protests, public events to pray for Belarus and for violence by the regime to end have increased. The regime has increasingly used Administrative Code Article 23.34 ("Violation of the procedure for organizing or conducting a mass event or demonstration") against those taking part in public prayer events.

  • Scottish Disability Sport - the First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword
    Scottish Disability Sport - The First Fifty Years Richard Brickley MBE Foreword I was delighted to be asked by Chief Executive Gavin Macleod to record the first fifty years of Scottish Disability Sport, to mark the occasion of the 50th Anniversary of the Association. Initially the project was intended to be small but the more I researched, the more it brought back memories of great athletes, superb volunteers and great times. I became determined to try and do justice to as many as those great people as possible. I am certain I shall have forgotten key people in the eyes of others and if so I apologise profusely. For almost four decades SDS has been for me a way of life. The volunteers I have had the pleasure of working with for almost three decades are those I remember with great fondness, particularly during the early years. I applaud the many athletes who contributed to the rich history and success of SDS over fifty years. Outstanding volunteers like Bob Mitchell, Mary Urquhart, David Thomson, Jean Stone, Chris Cohen and Colin Rains helped to develop and sustain my passion for disability sport. I have been privileged to work with exceptional professionals like Ken Hutchison, Derek Casey, Liz Dendy, Paul Bush, Bob Price, Louise Martin, Sheila Dobie, Fiona Reid, Eddie McConnell, Gavin MacLeod, Mary Alison, Heather Lowden, Lawrie Randak, Tracey McCillen, Archie Cameron and many others whose commitment to inclusive sport has been obvious and long lasting. I thank Jean Stone, Jacqueline Lynn, Heather Lowden, Maureen Brickley and Paul Noble who acted as “readers” during the writing of the history and Norma Buchanan for administrative support at important stages.

  • Using Thematic Thinking to Achieve Business Success, Growth, and Innovation
    Praise for Using Thematic Thinking to Achieve Business Success, Growth, and Innovation “This is THE case book for unconventional, yet proven business ideas on anything from brand extension, new product development, to intelligent homes. The authors provide a straight-forward approach to solving well-known problems using a new perspective. Thematic Thinking will be an eye-opener to many strategist and innovation leaders.” — Prof. Dr. Mueller-Kirschbaum , Henkel, Corporate Senior Vice President, Research & Development “If, like me, you think visually, this book will have you thinking about networks and nodes and also nesting Venn diagrams. Reading the book will have you precluding taxonomic and promoting thematic categories for problem solving. It will teach you how-to and when-to, and also when-not-to. It is very pragmatic, and—for businesses in many categories—may prove very profitable.” — Patricia D. Stokes, Ph.D. , Adjunct professor of psychology, Barnard College, Columbia University, New York, USA, and author of Creativity from Constraints: The Psychology of Breakthrough , and Creativity from Constraints in the Performing Arts “This book will change the way you view the business world. Most managers are trained to categorize, from their own ‘core competence’ to the industry in which they operate. In this book, the authors demonstrate with numerous real-world cases the surprising power of viewing business as a world of interconnected products, services, and industries. By recognizing the relations among businesses, rather than simply focusing on their categorization, managers can capitalize on a whole new world of opportunities. This book is a must-read for anyone who’s looking for a competitive advantage for their business.” — Zachary Estes, Ph.D.

  • Julia Anna Jastrząbek the Olympic Games in Post-Socialist
    ROZPRAWY NAUKOWE Akademii Wychowania Fizycznego we Wrocławiu 2019, 65, 1–15 Julia Anna Jastrząbek Poznań University of Economics and Business THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN POST-SOCIALIST CITIEs – a rEAL goAL OR DISTANT FUTURE? CASE STUDIES OF CRACOW AND ALMATY The collapse of the Soviet Union has led to historical transitions in Central and Eastern Europe. The political and economic transformation in countries located in this world’s region has caused their dynamic socioeconomic development and more stable position on the international stage. Regarding the potential of hosting the Olympic Games as an opportunity for infrastructural im- provements, employment boost, and presentation of a positive image and traditions of a country, post-Soviet cities have entered the race for staging Olympic events. The main aim of this article is to analyse the bidding process for the 2022 Winter Olympic Games with an emphasis on case studies from two bidding cities with post-socialist history – Cracow and Almaty. Characteristic patterns and features of both cities’ bids, as well as differences between them are drawn, with conclusions on why these were unsuccessful. Cracow and Almaty’s bid paths in the 2022 Winter Olympics process were different. Cracow pulled out from the race during the applicant phase because of referendum results: the city residents were against the Olympics, while Almaty reached the final phase and lost to Beijing in final voting. It seems that post-socialist countries still have a weaker bargaining position in the bidding process than candidates with advanced and estab- lished economies. Key words: Winter Olympic Games, mega-events, post-socialist cities, political economy INTRODUCTION Since the disintegration process of the Eastern Bloc was accomplished, many new independent countries or those which regained their sovereignty lost after the Second World War have appeared on the world map.
