Weisman* INTRODUCTION This comment explores the myriad of issues related to constructing and maintaining a stable, democratic, and constitutionally based govern- ment in the newly independent Russian Federation. Russia recently adopted a constitution that expresses a dedication to the separation of powers doctrine.' Although this constitution represents a significant step forward in the transition from command economy and one-party rule to market economy and democratic rule, serious violations of the accepted separation of powers doctrine exist. A thorough evaluation of these violations, and indeed, the entire governmental structure of the Russian Federation is necessary to assess its chances for a successful and peace- ful transition and to suggest alternative means for achieving this goal.

Leaving the Commonwealth: Explanations from Different Viewpoints
Leaving the Commonwealth: explanations from different viewpoints Naam: Rixte Schermerhorn Studentnummer: 1509381 Docent: Wouter Veenendaal Bachelorproject: Kleine Staten Datum: 12-6-2017 Woordenaantal: 8315 1 Introduction Following The Gambia leaving the Commonwealth in 2013 (Hultin, Jallow, Lawrance, & Sarr, 2017), President Yameen of the Maldives recently announced in October 2016 that his country would also be leaving the Commonwealth (Safi, 2016). It is unusual for members states to leave the Commonwealth, few states that have done so usually later rejoined. Moreover, most states that did leave the Commonwealth were actually suspended from the organisation. That small states are leaving the Commonwealth at all is striking, due to the perceived benefits of being a member of the organisation. These supposed benefits range from financial resources for projects to technical assistance and policy recommendations (Commonwealth Secretariat, 2014a). However, after the presidential elections in December 2016, the new president of The Gambia announced that his state would be rejoining the Commonwealth (BBC, 2017). Consequently, this shows that the organisation still holds some appealing qualities for small states. Thus, by using the Maldives and The Gambia as case studies, the arguments for leaving the organisation despite the supposed benefits of being a member state are considered. This thesis aims to outline the various arguments on why the small states left the Commonwealth. It will predominantly focus on the arguments given in the small states the Maldives and The Gambia, whilst also taking into account the comparative views of the Commonwealth. This thesis is also of social relevance as it provides insight into how former colonies deal with their colonial past and their own identity, as well as highlighting the relationship small states have with an international organisation (‘IO’) set up by their former coloniser.
